55% right brained

last week i had to teach an health class on right brain vs left brain. it was quite interesting. so i decided to take the test myself.

you are more right-brained than left-brained. The right side of your brain controls the left side of your body. In addition to being known as right-brained, you are also known as a creative thinker who uses feeling and intuition to gather information. You retain this information through the use of images and patterns. You are able to visualize the "whole" picture first, and then work backwards to put the pieces together to create the "whole" picture. Your thought process can appear quite illogical and meandering. The problem-solving techniques that you use involve free association, which is often very innovative and creative. The routes taken to arrive at your conclusions are completely opposite to what a left-brained person would be accustomed. You probably find it easy to express yourself using art, dance, or music. Some occupations usually held by a right-brained person are forest ranger, athlete, beautician, actor/actress, craftsman, and artist.

Your Left Brain Percentages

35%	Sequential (Your most dominant characteristic)
34%	Verbal
27%	Linear
25%	Logical
20%	Reality-based
0%	Symbolic (Your least dominant characteristic)

Your Right Brain Percentages

46%	Concrete (Your most dominant characteristic)
44%	Nonverbal
32%	Fantasy-oriented
29%	Intuitive
18%	Holistic
17%	Random (Your least dominant characteristic) Your Nonverbal Analysis When processing your thoughts and ideas, you use tend to use both illustrations and words. When giving directions, you probably use both visual illustrations such as, "keep going until you see a McDonalds on your right; then turn left at the Home Depot", and technical terms such as, "travel for two miles and turn east onto First Street." THAT is SOOOO true! i always know directions based on landmarks, not street names! haha

haha

i was semi-bored at work the other day.

i looked down and noticed something interesting [maybe just to me]

out of the 9 girls that were in my class:

*7 had uggs on

*2 had neon nike hightops on.

wow. that is just sad. not one girl has her own style. sheep.......sheep.

coo

well that class i was so worried about on friday went really well. whew! all of that worrying for nothing. but i'm sure the next time i sub for them it will be scary. haha. and after school i went to the gym and 2 of the students who are usually disrespectful came running up to me and were really nice. they were probably just mocking me. haha.

oh and last night, i went out and this couple was having a bet on my age. they were both off. he thought 19-20. she thought 22-25. haha! i should go to the fair and have the Guessing Guy try. i could DEFINITELY win a prize!

it's funny. i've actually hit the age where i really appreciate it. i never thought this day would come, but i LOVE it!!!! i'm totally going to use this to my advantage. ;)

happy march birthdays!

one more month!

yay! i only have one more month to go, b4 i can get a new cell phone!!! i love my phone, and wish they still made them. i took such great care of it until one night....

i was sitting in the dark and it rang. i picked it up to shoot a txt msg back. then without noticing, jimmy set down a cup of beer. i...put....my...phone...in....the cup of beer! and didn't realize it! (it was dark. and i'm blonde) he picked up his beer and was like -wow this is heavy...."uh. sweetheart....you uh...put your phone in my beer"

i look over, "what? WHAT?!?! get it out! omg! my phone!!!!! i love that thing!!! holy $HIT!"

i freaked. it was dead. (sorry about your beer. dude. still good :) )

i put it in a bag of rice for a week and it WORKS! with some minor setbacks:

1) when opened to QWERTY keyboard- the "w, q, z, 1, 2, 3." do not work!

2) the front touch screen has really cool star-like dots. looks like shooting stars or glitter. i really like that feature.

that's pretty much it. but you don't realize how much you use those certain letters & numbers when you can't. i'm sick of txting "vv" for my "w." i've noticed that i have transferred that to my typing as well. and having to type out: "tvventy" or "tvvo" when all i want is to put 20 or 2. see ya at 6thirty. or that. ugh!

wooHOO

i did it! i did it!

not that i doubted myself. (just my luck). went to best buy to get a wireless router for my awesome new notebook. i've only had it since thanksgiving. the guy said it's pretty difficult to set-up. i said, "well i'm good at this kind of stuff." he replied with, "well it took our manager 4 hours."

i should call them. it took me 25 min. and only bc i stopped to vacuum behind my desktop.

soooo. now i can sit on my couch and blog and browse and just be a bum! i LOVE IT!!!

*at one point i was looking at the set-up diagram and it showed that i should have the wireless router plugged into my modem and the modem also plugged into my desktop port. well, my router only has one jack. hmm. needless to say, i figured it out. BUT, the guy didn't tell me that i would need either another ethernet cord or a wireless adapter (each sold separately). luckily i have 2 ethernet cords! :)

oh boy....

i have to sub for a "not so great" class on friday & since i was working today, i thought i would scout them out.


oh boy.

i'm in for a real treat!

it's a phys ed class, which normally i would find awesome! but for some reason kids these days apparently don't like physical activity. and those that do, don't like to play games the right way. i'm not going to go into detail of why i can't stand this. i will just say that the students that i will have to "deal" with are some of the most disrespectful people i have ever met. i've seen the way they treat their teacher, i can just imagine how disrespectful they will be with me.

the teacher and i were commenting on how they behave and we determined that they obviously don't care about their grade in the class. bc yes they will get docked points for not participating and being disrespectful. as we were saying this, a senior on the guys' basketball team, who isn't even in the class said that we are mean. oh, so i guess screaming in your teacher's face(i'm talking 2 inches away from her nose) among other things is acceptable.

really? uh. no.

nobody did this when i was in school. YOU CHOSE TO TAKE THIS CLASS. so when you are asked to run 2 whole easy laps as a warm-up - DO IT! it's a Physical Education class called: LIFE FITNESS. if you don't like it, by all means, drop it.

ugh.

so i'm pretty sure the 2nd facet joint block didn't do the trick. it's been like 5 days and i woke up in the middle of the night last night bc my back hurt. why is it so impossible to fix? and why does an active 27 yr old girl have such chronic back pain? this is bush!

also, i may miss out on a FULL week of spring break, bc i have an appt that i can't change. grr. very grr.

i'm telling ya- something is not right. the earth is spinning on the wrong axis or something. with everything that has been going on. (not just with me, but with the whole dang planet)

p.s. how much long for lent? i need to swear. it's just natural.

snow, snow, go away come again in 2011

ok. ok. that isn't how it goes, but COME ON! this is ridiculous!!!! my body can't take it anymore

2010 winter party

we had to keep going to the bathroom bc we were laughing so hard we were crying!!!

"i need a giant clock in my living room." the funny thing is...we were all totally sober!

ok...maybe just jimmy, he gave up drinking for lent!
and nicole she had to work the next day.

kristi "from the block"

another day, another facet joint block.

what am i...80 yrs old? this is ~bonkers~??? (i am trying to give up swearing for Lent.)

it worked for about 3 days last time. let's see how it pans out this go 'round. first of all, i left with my left leg numb as [insert curse]. it was really funny trying to walk. my leg was wacked up!

*jimmy had to work and we didn't have time to have him pick me up then take me out there, so i drove my car to his work-we took it to surgery center-and then picked up his car & i drove mine back home after procedure. my friend, rob offered to drive, but it was really early in the morning(so i felt bad)

after the procedure, jimmy, my responsible driver, decided to take me to breakfast on the way home so that i could "sober" up enough to drive my car home. well let's just say i barely made it through the door without collapsing. it was so random- - they had a lonely chair sitting there. i basically fell onto it. i held onto him the whole way thru the restaurant, bc seriously...my leg...it did not want to work right.

as we walked out he said, "these people are probably wondering why i'm taking my drunk gf to breakfast." haha. probably.....probably.


i took a 2 hour nap at home then when i tried to get out of bed my left leg still didn't work. it was the craziest thing. so i flopped out to the living room. "is this going to be forever?......"

ha!

damnit!

came home from work.

sat at computer checking email.

my seat is my exercise ball.

cat jumps up on my lap, but slips.

claw punctures ball.

i fell straight on my lower back.

i re-sprained my wrist.

ball=dead.

cat=dead.

jimmy came rushing in to see if i was okay.

i laid there laughing.

welp...

that was a little funny. so i was a little...uh. down?...so i uh. "picked myself up?" and the pain management nurse (who apparently can't read & is a total LOSER) called me (or some girl named kristen???) & wanted to know how i was doing and if i needed another procedure done.

WELL, i was talking so slow and thinking sooooo slow that i couldn't get thru it. i was looking at my pain log and i just kept laughing silently and trying to figure out what to say. and welp...

i have to go back next week to get it done again!


hahahahahaha. life's silly sometimes.

prepare to laugh your ass off

HAHAHA DADGUMIT!

well that was kinda random...

went to the mall with my mom & mikey and all of a sudden we hear a big voice and see a crowd. it was michael strahan.

hmm.

well that was kinda random...
