Over-time Incentive.

So my work has gotten really busy over the past few weeks, and my boss decided to open up over-time. I decided to start working some to get some extra money to help pay off my credit card debt. Well my boss opened up even more over time and I'm pretty sure I'm going to kill myself trying to work as much as possible. When I realized that I could pay off my credit card debt in 2 months, rather than a year I seriously couldn't breathe. This debt racked up so quickly. Yes it was my fault, obviously. But I was blind to so many things & people. I still blame my ex for HELPING put me in debt. But that's all in the past now. I'm literally so close to paying off my debt I can smell the crisp extra mula in my pockets. Haha.

If being debt free isn't enough incentive already to work as much as possible. There's also the opportunity of moving out incentive.. and then the BEST incentive ever. When I pay off my debt I'll be able to afford a more expensive car payment. Right now I have a 2008 Kia Rio. Yeah- I'm pretty lucky to have basically a brand new car. But it's a family car. I only got it because I was under the impression I was going to be starting a family in the following year or so. And welp that didn't happen. So below is my REAL incentive to be working my botty off:

Bumble Bee!


I want to get a new car. I want a SPORT car. I want a car with 2 doors. I want to have automatic everything (windows, locks, maybe even auto start?) I want a sunroof! I want my windows tinted illegally black. I want a car with dual exhaust. I want to hear the rumbles from a mile away. I want an AWESOME sound system. I wanna go FAST! I want something gorgeous and new and will make everyone envious. And I WILL have it. I get what I want. Haha.

I just can't decide if I want to get a yellow 2010 Camaro though.
What do you think? Should I get the yellow or one of the below colors?:

White.


Silver.


Red. (I have a red car now :/)


Blue.


Black.

Energy.

KERI HILSON LYRICS

"Energy"

I wish I could rip out a page of my memory
'cause I put to much energy in him and me
Can't wait till I get through this phase
'cause it's killing me
To bad we can't re-write our own history


[Hook:]
Such a mystery when he's here with me
It's hard to believe I'm still lonely
Chance's fading now, patience running out
This ain't how it's supposed to be

[Chorus:]
I'm having nightmares from sleeping with the enemy
How do we re-reverse the chemistry
I don't want us to be the end of me
This love is taking all of my energy
Energy, my energy
Taking all my energy
Energy, my energy
Taking all of (my energy)

Seems only like yesterday, not even gravity
Could keep your feet off the ground when you go to me
How can two be as one
We've become to divided now
There's no use hiding from my misery

[Hook]
[Chorus]

Now I can feel a change in me
And I can't afford to slip much further
From the person I was meant to be
I'm not afraid to walk alone
Not give it up but moving on
Before it gets too deep
'cause you're taking all of my energy


I'm having nightmares from sleeping with the enemy
How do we reverse the chemistry
I don't want us to be the end of me
This love is taking all of my energy

[Chorus]

You're killing me
You're taking all of me yeah, oh
This love is taking all of my energy

Bulletproof

I can't stand how this person looks, or the video of this song.. actually the song is a 7 on my annoying scale (10 being the most annoying) but I REAALLLLYY like the lyrics, so here they are:

"Bulletproof" - La Roux

Been there, done that, messed around
I'm having fun don't put me down,
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet,
I won't let you in again, the messages I've tried to send,
my informations just not going in,
burnin' bridges shore to shore, I'll break away from something more,
I'm not turned off to love until it's cheap,
been there, done that, messed around,
I'm having fun don't put me down,
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet,

Chorus:
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby I'll be bulletproof

I won't let you turn around,
and tell me now I'm much too proud,
to walk away from something when it's dead,
do do do your dirty words come out to play when you are hurt?,
there's certain things that should be left unsaid,
tick tick tick on the watch and life's too short for me to stop,
Oh baby, your time is running out,
I won't let you turn around,
and tell me now I'm much too proud,
All you do is fill me up with doubt,

Chorus:
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby I'll be bulletproof

Bridge

Chorus:
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby I'll be bulletproof
This time baby, this time baby
This time baby, this time
This time baby, this time baby
This time baby, this time.

Wow! What are the chances?!

SO one of my veryy good friends, basically the best friend someone could ask for.. is pregnant! She's turning 23 this week, married to her soul-mate & best friend & she's currently in the 22-23 week range. (I believe!?) She went to a tech place where all they tell you the sex of your baby & print off lots of ultrasound pic's when she was 17 weeks. (I think? lol) All the pictures were pointing to a boy. That actually hit her pretty hard because she's only wanted to have one baby her whole life, and that baby was to be a little baby girl. Even her hubby wanted a little girl! Well.. today she went to her normal OBGYN doc for the sex appointment (& where they check lots of other things too) and they found out they're having a GIRL! They get to have that little baby girl that they BOTH wanted SO bad! I'm beyond excited for them. They deserve this so incredibly much, for so many different reasons. That little baby girl is amazingly loved so much already, SHE has no idear!

This is my gorgeous, little preggo friend.. Kaleigh Marie :)

Times Square Bomb Scare - May 1st 2010

The New York Times <---- News source.

A crude car bomb of propane, gasoline and fireworks was discovered in a smoking Nissan Pathfinder in the heart of Times Square on Saturday evening, prompting the evacuation of thousands of tourists and theatergoers on a warm and busy night. Although the device had apparently started to detonate, there was no explosion, and early on Sunday the authorities were still seeking a suspect and motive.




At 6:28 p.m., Mr. Kelly said, a video surveillance camera recorded what was believed to be the dark green Nissan S.U.V. driving west on 45th Street. Moments later, a T-shirt vendor on the sidewalk saw smoke coming out of vents near the back seat of the S.U.V., which was now parked awkwardly at the curb with its engine running and its hazard lights on. The vendor called to a mounted police officer, the mayor said, who smelled gunpowder when he approached the S.U.V. and called for assistance. The police began evacuating Times Square, starting with businesses along Seventh Avenue, including a Foot Locker store and a McDonald’s. Police officers from the emergency service unit and firefighters flooded the area and were troubled by the hazard lights and running engine, and by the fact that the S.U.V. was oddly angled in the street. At this point, a firefighter from Ladder 4 reported hearing several “pops” from within the vehicle. The police also learned that the Pathfinder had the wrong license plates on it.

Members of the Police Department’s bomb squad donned protective gear, broke the Pathfinder’s back windows and sent in a “robotic device” to “observe” it, said Deputy Commissioner Paul J. Browne, the police department’s chief spokesman. Inside, they discovered three canisters of propane like those used for barbecue grills, two five-gallon cans of gasoline, consumer-grade fireworks — the apparent source of the “pops” — and two clocks with batteries, the mayor said. He said the device “looked amateurish.”




Mr. Browne said: “It appeared it was in the process of detonating, but it malfunctioned.”

Officials said they had no reports of anyone seen running from the vehicle. Mr. Kelly said police were scouring the area for any additional videotapes but noted that the S.U.V.’s windows were tinted, which could further hamper any efforts to identify those inside. Some of the surveillance cameras nearby were located in closed businesses, and the mayor made clear it would take time to review all available tapes.

“We have no idea who did this or why,” Mr. Bloomberg said. Kevin B. Barry, a former supervisor in the New York Police Department bomb squad, said that if the device had functioned, “it would be more of an incendiary event” than an explosion.




The license plates on the Nissan were registered to another vehicle — a Ford pickup truck that was taken to a junkyard near Bridgeport, Conn., within the last two weeks, according to a law enforcement official. The previous owner of the Ford was interviewed Saturday night by the FBI, but it did not appear he was regarded as a suspect. Still, the junkyard was considered a primary target of the initial investigation.

The S.U.V.’s standard vehicle identification number had been removed, Mr. Bloomberg said, and investigators were scouring it to see if the number appeared elsewhere.

The White House said President Obama had been briefed on the episode and had pledged federal assistance in the investigation.




Times Square on a Saturday night is one of the busiest and most populated locations in the city, and has long been seen as a likely target for some kind of attack.

--------------------------------------------------------

I was just there a month ago. You know how many times we walked to Times Square? A lot! We were in Times Square more at night time too. We even ate right in the middle of it all. We watched the guys at the restaurant we were at work as a team to throw out their garbage bags onto the curb like you see in one of the pictures of the SUV up there. It's just SO crazy that things like that happen. And they seem to happen so quickly & easily.
