Last Day

Yep, it is sure last day for me to use internet cuz we are leaving late tmw morning on the way to home (Texas). I felt that I'm ready to go home now. It is a bit too long but that's ok. It is truly nice to get out of Texas for a while.

I went to couple natural parks nearby in AZ. I spotted coytoe, roadrunner, and roadkilled boar. Yes, there's a boar here. My mom did doubted and truth is I kinda doubt what I saw until I went to sourvinor(gifts or stuff for memorable vaction) shop and there is a boar picture looks exact what I saw a dead one. Well, there isn't any gross looks. Just plain dead.

I did went to Sonda... Ooohh It is so beautiful. It is Grand Cayon(sp). The winner is from the best vacation of USA's choice is Sonda, AZ. However it is nearly expensive because speactolor(sp?) view is 360 degree and ya get the best view looking out.

Next let's talk about Oreo and Reese and Tom-Tom(TT).... Oreo is sooo adorable. When we were packing a day early Oreo is ready to go. He's already inside the carrier and wait for us to take him. Ooohh sooo sweet! During the daytime riding along in mini-van. I let Oreo out. He's fine. He's busying looking out the window and sitting on my shoulder. He's reminding me a monkey. In fact, I've nicknamed him "Curious Gegorge, Curious a little monkey" Yes, he certain curious. He likes to get into anything and be in the middle of everything what ya doing. When I packing stuff in suitcase, he comes and sit down on the suitcase. Other times, he would sniff around and looked at me "meow". So adorable. So sweet! I couldn't resist. I picked him up and loving him. Oreo is increadble smart himself. Too smart for most cats. Mom said compare any cats that she had... Oreo is smarter than all.

Reese is ready to go when we start packing. Reese sat in the backseat and just stay there while we are packing suitcases in the mini-van. She doesn't go anyway. Before we left TX to AZ, Reese doesn't know where to sit. She been busying seating in different seat then ended up seating the driver's seat. For some reason she likes that place better. After a while, at the last packed, we put 2 carrier by one of two cats each for 2 carriers. We put in the back seat. Reese hopped over and sat back seat with them. Reese knows where she's really belong in the backseat. Soo adorable. I know. I know. It just tickle me to know that Reese wouldn't leave the mini-van in the morning as we packed back from the hotel and on the way to another hotel. She would do exact same thing. Sometimes Reese is concern to be left out. She doesn't want to be forgotten. That's her worry. I can see that. When we were packing today to get ready to leave tmw morning, we stopped Reese from coming with us as we walk to mini-van to oranize and stuff. Reese seems not happy. Her tail is down and her head is down as she walk around. I saw her then I spoke to her, "Oh Reese, don't you worry. I see you, girl. and you are coming with us." Then she wagged her tail softly. Then mom added, "of course, you are, Reese, you are coming with us, we won't forget you." Reese's tail wagging more and faster. She came to us for our loving and attention.

TT is totally different. He doesn't like to being picked up. He'll try to bite or stritch you. TT does bite very hard and it does go deep especially with his fangs. I can see the fangs are outside of his lip. Too much remind me of sabortooth cat. TT is always feel safer in the carrier even though we have to fight for him to put in the carrier. Mainly because every trip to go to VET, that's why he wouldn't go there. When we were in TX, TT already knows what's going on. It means travel time. He would try so hard to escape or hide. We managed to find him and put him in the carrier. At first, he would meowing and fussing once he realize that he isn't going to VET. He's all calm and purring and go to sleep. If we tried to let him out. He would find a good hiding spot. However, at night, he doesn't mind sitting backseat and looking out the window. TT feels more comfortable at night than daytime. TT is still sweet and loveble and he will get on your lap only when he feels like it.

Well, last time to post until next time. So, I'm going ahead and say, "Merry Early Christmas" or "Happy Holidays!"

In AZ

Yes, My mom did notice the man stare at me. Of course, my mom told my dad that. Which it is not unusual. More stories come to later. It is about my trip to National Park.....

AZ

I'm still in AZ. Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep, I sure am. *grin*

I notice a lot of hispanic people around here. It does seem like mostly are from Mexico. When I was at the resturant, Olive Garden, I notice one hispanic guy stare at me. I mean it is very obvious because he is doing it literally stare. I do feel somewhat uncomfortable. I manage to ingore. I feel sorry for his girlfriend, I knew she would feel less beautiful. Of course, it is not unusual, his girlfriend got mad at him. She wasn't happy about that. I know that I am beautiful and God created me. If I truly hate my apperances then that means I would hate God for created me. I already accepted for my apperances after all I can't change it. Unless I get the plastic surgery which it costs a lot. I rather not. Beside, I like my appearance and I enjoy my beauty. There's no law said that I can't enjoy. But still, it strike me interesting about some men out there. Also what's interesting part, some (or most) men do look at me or suprised by my beauty looks. One thing I don't understand is that they do not approach me. If I try to approach to some guys, it makes it worst because it boast their ego-ism and start playing hard to get. That's really annoying. I lost interesting fast. That's why I don't approach.

A very few guys did approach me. One did but I quickly dismissed him. Sadly, Yes, I did. When I should have put the effort to try to soicalize with him. I guess I'm more comfortable around deaf men than I do hearing men. That's the hearing guy I dismissed him.

Because one deaf guy did approach me and I enjoy talking to him because communicate is a lot easier than trying hard time understanding what's the hearing guy said. It does consume my energy.

Before I talk about Halloween Party, I went to Deaf Happy Hour last summer. There are fewer deaf people there. I don't know if I mention this on the blog because I couldn't seem to find it so I assume it is not. I met a deaf guy there. He's bragging how much he's contoling his roommate. Well, his roommate is female and she's diabetic. He kept telling her what she can eat and what not to eat. He keep on preaching to exercise.. blah blah blah. The way how he says that he really enjoy to tell her what to do. I don't like him at all. I feel very uncomfortable around him. So I left.

Now, at the Halloween Party, There are several deaf people. I met quite a few. One person did introduce me to some others. So that's how it make it alot easier to soicalize. Other person did introduce me to Jimmy. He's seems pretty nice guy. I do enjoy being around him. Then there's a guy I met from Deaf Happy Hour. I wish he wasn't there. He did showed up late. I manage to mind my own buisness and talk with other deaf people until I need to go to use restroom. I could not hold any longer. I walk by that controling guy. He try to stop me, I told him I gotta go. After using the restroom, I try so hard to pass by him without notice him or that he didn't notice me but... He's actually waiting for me. Back of my head was, "sh*t" I couldn't believe it. He grabbed a chair and said that I must respect a lady and bring to the table for me to sit with him. *Ugh* What can I do?! I wish somebody would save me... but deep down I know only I can save myself. The converstation wasn't flowing smoothly in and out. He does the most talking. Half of the time, I don't understand what's the heck is he talking about. Meanwhile I try to think of a creative way to get out. He did asked me a couple of questions but everytime I talk, he just interpruted me. I didn't care. I let him interprut me. I don't feel comfortable of sharing myself to him. He said that our converstation flow in and out natural... Ha! Oh PUH-lease... He said that I'm beautiful. I told him thank you. Then he asked me out... Sh*t was come in my mind again. I told him, "no." He asked why... I just shake my head. I refuse to give a reason. He said that he doesn't see me wearing wedding band and asked me if I'm married. I wish I could lie. I said, "no". He asked me again why not go out for a date. I shake my head. Then he brag on how much he has money and working full-time UPS and been working there for long time. I think 20 years or so... So I make up the exuase that I'm going to school this Spring 2008. So, I rather not dating for a while. Blah blah blah.... Finally, I had an idea... I told him, I need to get something to drink as I got up... He asked, are you coming back? This time... I lied. Yeah, I'm coming back..... No way I'm not going back to that controlling guy. Heck! I don't remember his name.

I saw Jimmy. I bought the bottle of water for a drink and sat with Jimmy. Several minutes later, that controlling guy came to us. Jimmy pointed to the tv which is baseball is playing. I went ahead and watch it. Few moments later, Jimmy got my attention. He said that best way to get the controlling guy to leave is to watch any sports. He doen't like sports and he would leave. Thanks for the advice, next time I will do that. Jimmy and I talk for a while... then controlling guy comes to us. We watch baseball until controlling guy leaves. It repeat like 6 times.... Geez, that controlling guy wouldn't leave me alone. And he still keep staring at me... Oy!! I hate that... I really hate that the most. However, I didn't let the controlling guy bother me. I continue to have fun which I did for the next few hours then I got a little bit sleepy. Jimmy was sweet that he's willing to walk with me to the car. I can trust him so I let him. Plus there are few other deaf people getting ready to leave so it was sorta in group so we're not alone. *smile*

All in All, it was a good experience for me. I do enjoy despite the fact the contolling guy is there. This time I finally find a way to save myself without hoping to have someone to save me after all, only I can save myself. I pat my back for did a good job to make a respect getaway without making into scene.

Wow, I didn't realize, it's getting late. Good Nite.

Need my Beauty Sleep!

Sneezing-

Yep, I've been sneezing lately and no it's not a cold/flu. It's allergy. Man! I hated that. Being in a small space with two cats. I'm higly allergic to cats than dogs. (that's why I pick dog, not cats) If the space is large, then it's not so bad.

Now why am I speaking of space? Mmmmm.... I'm in AZ for real. Living in two bedrooms and two bathrooms apartment. Living room/dining room/Kitchen is connected in one room. Talk about small space here. Compare living in the house. There's no hallway or going up and down the stairs. But here we are staying for one month. So I've been taking allergy pills from the over the counter from the store. It helps but bigger space is much better. I have been outside more often where's the freesh air. Inotice my nose is alot clearer if I'm outside more than I'm inside. Well, it doesn't matter.

This apartmen t suppose to have heated pool but sadly according to the magner said, we do have heated pool but the heat pump is broke. Mom and I think she's lying. The manager of the apartment is lazy... cuz she kept postponing the paperwork for several weeks then finally got it. Then we arrive to AZ, we got the room... but we still waiting for other closure paperwork and AC adoptor (it is for the computer internet) without AC adoptor there's no way to have access to the internet. Geez, I thought we have to wait for few weeks by the time I got the AC adoptor, we are going back to Texas. Lucky, I just got the AC adoptor this evening.

Well, this town is pretty easy to learn a way around better than Texas. It has everything in one spot without spreading every where. It's much better. Save Gas, too.

We haven't find the Park, yet for Reese. I know she needs it. Reese has been moping around. She isn't in playful mood lately. Sadly, there's no backyard. I know Reese needs to go to the park. I know that will cheer her up better. I hate seeing her moping around.

We have no luck to find temopoary rental house or "vaction homes" It is either no pets allow or have pets allow, if the pets are allow but credit card is not acceptable. What a pain in the....... I found a perfect cottage-y house and has large fenced backyard. *sigh* But she doesn't accept credit card. Oh well....

Well, on the bright side, I got to have access on internet and tv cable. *big grin* Only reason I like it so much, Sci-fi... Of course it's Star Gate: Atlantis. Right now I'm watching the Animal Planet or Explorer, it's focus on Tiger in the wild. I enjoy watching that show. Well, not just for tiger but many other animals stuff. Once in a while, I do enjoy watching History Channel. Sometimes it is fancasting to watch but other times it can be boring. I only pick out what I know that I would enjoy.

Well, it's 11pm here while midnight in Texas, I've starting to go to bed early since there's no backyard, I have no choice but to wake up early in the morning and take Reese for a walk around in apartment area.
