  • Why Do People Lie?

    The other night at work we get a 911 call from a girl who told us that her and sister were sexually assaulted and possibly raped. She was not sure....was dizzy and could not remember. She thought she was drunk and did not know how she got that way. (Or something like that....can't recall word for word) She did not know the address to where it happened...her and her sister left and walked to the grocery store to call. We send the ambulance and the police....they take them to the hospital...and then to the police dept. Somewhere in there they confessed that they were lying because they had been drinking and did not want to get into trouble.

    Why do people do that ???? What a terrible lie! There are women getting raped everyday and don't even report it because they feel its there fault....they are ashamed....they know their rapist..and many other reasons. There are women who are raped everyday and their lives are never the same. There are women who are raped everyday and no one believes them because there are girls out there who lie about it because they don't want to get in trouble with mom and dad for going out and having sex and getting drunk.

    I wish there was a way for these lying girls to be in a room full of women who were raped..and these girls will have to explain to the women who were raped why they lied.....why they used something that was so tragically done to these women as an excuse not to get in trouble....and then have to listen to each women recall what was done to them......

    But we all know that won't happen. These girls are not even getting charged with false reporting because they are not 18 years old. What a crock! Such BS! What is wrong with this!!!!?????

  • Hiccups

    Oh my goodness these hiccups won't go away! I woke with them....delt with them for a good hour.....they went away and now they are back again. This cycle is just going to be repeated for the rest of the day. At least that is what usually happens when I get them. An hour of them....an hour with out them....an hour with them.....an hour with out them.

    Here is an interesting little tid bit. I went to high school with a kids who's grandpa is in the guinnness book of world records for the longest hiccups. He hiccuped from 1922 to 1990...68 years! OMG! How did he do it????

    I read somewhere that sugar helps get rid of hiccups....I doubt it. I would try all the crazy tricks one would do to get rid of them. Hold my breath....take 10 gulps of water....hold my breath again. Hop on one foot while holding my breath...click my heals together and say theres no place like home,theres no place like home. Oh wait...forget that last one....thats what I do an hour before my shift is over on my Fridays in hopes that I will magically get wisked away to my house

  • The Wave

    It has been 10 days since The Wave arrived. (www.thefirmwave.com)  I have to say I am having quite a fun time working out with it.I have no complaints about it. Its a workout....I can feel the pain but I feel so good when I am done. It came with 3 workouts. The first one is Speed Slimming Sculpt, which is 30 minutes of sculpting and toning. It also gives you an express version. The second is Rock It Off,which is 40 minutes of high energy cardio and strength intervals. This also has an express cardio. The third dvsd is Express Abs,a 10 minute ab workout. I think I have done it  7 out of the 10 days that I have had it. So far I am feeling results.

    What Would You Do If.......

    What would you do if you were traveling with your husband......ok I'll be fair....or wife and you stopped at a rest area many many many miles away from your home and you come back out to your car only to find that you have been left????

    Around 4:30 in the a.m. I received a notification to put out a broadcast to locate a MAN who left his wife at  rest area.....45 minutes ago!!!!!! HOLY YOU KNOW WHAT!!!!!!!  I almost lost it during my broadcast

    ( I had an officer tell me he laughed so hard he had tears)

    Its not funny......but its a little funny......but its not funny....but its a little funny. Now if it was me that was left I would say NOT FUNNY

    I was feeling bad for this woman.....and fearful for her husband when realized what he had done. We are talking chocolate and flowers everyday for a year!

          ***I should note that this did not take place in my county and the woman was safe with an attendant****
