OK, not only do I need a vacation, I desperately need a massage. There are probably dozens of knots in my back and my shoulders. This tax season is wearing me down...down....down......

PHISING EMAILS WARNING!
Wow, these people don't give up, huh?
Newest phishing e-mail that I just encountered today is one that poses as an order confirmation from Amazon. If you get something similar and you know that you have not ordered anything, please do not rush to open the link in the e-mail. Check your bank and credit card statements first, to make sure that no charges have taken place. Also, most e-mail programs allows you to see the full link without clicking on it. Simply move your mouse cursor to the link (without clicking!) and the full link will pop up. It's most likely NOT going to be an Amazon link. Even if it looks like one, don't click, just to be cautious.

Happy New Year to the few that actually read my blog.
This year shall be a great year. We're hoping to have a baby this year, so fingers crossed. The deadline I gave myself years ago, while still single, was to have kids by age 35. Well, by this summer I'll be 34, so looks like if we want two kids, I'm gonna have to extend that deadline a bit. Either way, I'm ready (never thought I would be).
And speaking of babies, 4 of my friends are pregnant, two of them are due late May / early June, while the other in March, and not sure about the 4th one. I'm so excited, cuz I love little ones!

Fat? Really?
A few friends and I were talking about a Taiwanese blogger, specifically this article: http://www.wretch.cc/blog/illyqueen/13314091
And someone chimed in and said "she is fat."
REALLY? You call that FAT? Does that mean a girl has to be skin & bones to be called skinny?
What the hell is wrong with people?

Little Kitten Needs a Home (Resolved)
Edit: My sister and her boyfriend decided last night that they're going to make Rusty (yes, they named him) their 3rd cat. He's just toooooo cute and so loveable!
=========================
My sister's neighbor found this cute kitten on their porch this morning. The neighbor's husband is allergic, and my sister already has two cats, so we need to find a loving home for the kitten. If anyone in the Greater Los Angeles and surrounding area would like to adopt this kitten, please leave me a private message. Thanks!

Taxes
Individual extended tax returns are due in a week, so the few that actually read this blog that resides in the U.S., if you haven't filed your tax return yet, please do so ASAP.
But that's not really the reason for me to be blogging today. The reason is the new law that our lovely California governor Brown just signed a new law that gives ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS college financial aids.
W.T.F.?????!!!!!
Illegal = not legal. They came into the country without proper paperworks, and they don't pay taxes, so why, I ask, WHY GIVE THEM OUR TAX DOLLARS? It's bad enough that the unemployment rate is high in California, and that those employed pay into the system, AND the state is still almost broke. Now he's going to give money to those that do not pay into the system? They can't legally work, so even after they obtain the education, they cannot contribute to the U.S. Then what?
He can forget about being re-elected, if you ask me. The people he's trying to please, by signing this law, cannot even vote. And those that vote, democrat and republican alike, are more likely upset like me about this bullcrap.
Can we vote him out of the office?

Weird Dream
I woke up SO upset around 3am, huffing and puffing, I tell ya.
Well, you'll understand the reason once you finish reading this dream that I had. So, in the dream, I was at home with this woman, who was (gasp!) my husband's other woman, and I was helping her with her resume. She wasn't quite happy with the progress, that much I knew. I can't remember her face, but she was the type of woman that I don't like: soft-spoken in a very soft way, needy, and carries a "poor me" face all the time.
Minh came home, and gave me a kiss. Instantly I felt somewhat guilty for kissing him in front of her (but he is my husband!), so I got up and gave them some time alone. A few minutes later when I returned, they were both on their feet. He said "I think it would be better that we go out and work on this."
I heard myself ask, "'We?' 'We' as in you and me, or 'we' as in her and you?"
He looked a bit sorry, and replied "me and her."
That did it! I was FURIOUS! I was mad at him for having brought her home, at her for having that "see, I won" look on her f*cking face, and even more mad at myself for staying around in the first place. Why didn't I leave when he brought her home?
Then poof, I woke up from this crazy-ass dream. I looked to my left and saw my loving husband on the couch playing video game, and looked to my right to see Chloe sleeping soundly next to me. OK, it was just a dream.
