For being for good to the water you get.....

good job people of Jacksonville, for using less water this year then last year you get...a higher bill rate. JEA said due to people using less water this year they are going to rise to rates so they would lose any money.The thing that is odd about this is that on the bill that JEA gives you on the bottom giving you tips on how to not waste water.So if you did what JEA asked you to do and saved water because you needed to save money or you know that the st johns river is in crisis or you are just trying to live with less.Well it is your fault that that JEA is losing money.Well not really losing money being that they are raising the rate every other day,so thanks you well meaning,obeying,Jacksonville loving people,you are making JEA feel the same thing as everyone else is feeling right now.

Word blog

O.K. so sometimes I like to use my word of my day in my blogs because I forget to use them at work and with my friends. I have not used them in a long time so I'm going to try to use a lot of them in one blog because I haven't done it in a long time so this may not make a lot of seance but what the hell I'm bored.So you know with words are witch Ill do this thing to them.
Lets begin with a big fuck you wait make that a fuucckk you to the dramatis personae (people involved in an event) in the fire going on in Australia, a word to the arsonist ,"You live on a island, so don't catch it fire!"I may me getting a little irascible (quick to anger)being that I live on a island in Florida. We take arson pretty sersiouly here because islands and fire don't go together.Know who else is a dick T.R. Knight I read that he is leaving greys and Katherine Hegel is going with him and they are both pissed off for blah blah blah. The point is don't be in medias ( in the middle of things) if you want to quit,quit just do it.

Bold On a more sanguine (Cheerfully optimistic or confident) front I'm propinquity (Nearness in space, time or relationship)to being down.It finally warm witch conduce (To lead to or contribute to a particular result.) to today being a awesome day and it was really nice outside.Anybody coming to Florida needs to know that it is interdict (A prohibition, especially a formal one, as by a court, church, etc.) to feed the birds, not really its just not cool seagulls are ugly and locals don't like them.

so have four more left but I cant fit them in so ill use them next time. Thanks for reading Megan R Chapman

rant blog

This is going too be a bit of a rant, but, I do not care what Obama is wearing, what dog there getting, why he isn't wearing a jacket on the first day and what have you. I care about want the hell he is doing for this country. That's all I care about. We have two wars, a shitty economy.an obesity epidemic,a sad excuse for education.How is talking about what dog there getting going to help any of this.LOL,walking the dog would help one of them, I just saw that.The sad part is the only person on TV that explained the economy in a way that I did not feel the need to scream bull shit was on the daily show a few nights ago. That is not a good sign. Look it is to soon to say that Obama is doing and good or bad job he hasn't even found the comfy spot in his chair yet.IDK maybe I am being too hard on the news.

Short story blog

Lessons from the kitchen
LESSONS WE ALL MUST LEARN
some learn in the classroom some learn on the street I learned in the kitchen. In kitchens my moms,my sisters,my Granny's were ever there is food there is charter.You learn things like clean a wine glass and how to clean your face side by side.Something you pick up on more then learn things like,cruising,how to flirt,and things your friends mom was doing when there dad weren't around.Things that they swear you learned from the TV or at the school bathroom.not in the kitchen. You can deal the difference between the kitchen I grow up in.In my Granny's I was far more quit in and I sat in a moral uncomfortably .I learned at I young age the my granny was far from p.c.I was very loud in my moms kitchen shes a hippie with an AARP card. My sisters kitchen was more open a kitchen were there was not a lot of cooking going on it was mostly talking until the microwave went off.All of then close to my hart. All of the lesson still in my head.
MOMS KITCHEN
my moms kitchen was filled with noise songs about anti-war and drug hazes. When Luise in the sky with diamonds came on she would say,"this song is about LSD." Then she would look at me and say,"Do you know what drugs are?"Then the safest answer was, "I think they talked about it in school" When songs all draft dodger came one I heard the some story over and over again. She would look down and say,"the war can be debated what happened in Kent was wrong." My moms favorite thing to do use speak German to me when I was in here kitchen. She was from German heritage and grow-up in a German town,but when she mate my dad,an Irish Catholic she stopped speaking it and when he moved the family to Jacksonville for a fishing job and wasn't spoken to her ether and her mind let it leave. Then when I was in school I took it as my foreign language credit and I brought it back into the kitchen.she would say things like, "was ist los?"then "I would say nothing' I over slept and need coffee." Then she would look at me and I would smile and say,"können Sie, mir eine Kaffeetasse bitte passieren?"She looked so happy passing my those cups every morning.I didn't like speaking it outside the house I spoke the German language at a Yankee speed with a southern accent. I am thou and thou am American.
GRANNYS KITCHEN
My granny, my dads mom. Someone who I think still hasn't forgiven me for leaving the church.Things like politics,religion,and what it is to be an American there was a generation gap.I for example didn't mind having to ask for an English menu,when the waiter asked I would say English with little worry knowing just enough Spanish to order food if they were out. On the other hand my granny would say things like, "I am in Florida which is still in America,right?"There were times that the gaps were filled times were in know all she wanted was to say how proud was for me the woman i was becoming you could see it in her face I never understand why she never said it. Most likely the same reason why i never told her that the things i see in buy self my scents of loyalty and my inner strength i got from her
SISTERS KITCHEN
My sisters kitchen was much more laid back I learned things like how to skip school and shop on line. Nothing was off limits we talk about school and work and boys and money.I learned things like the real reason why my family move here and why my mom and dad didn't move back after they retired.We talked about things that we know would never happen like backpacking thou Europe and writing a book.Her kitchen has changed the most I was once the person that she would kid out because I would mess things up when i was trying to "help"the why that your little siblings do.then as a teenager her apartment was a refuge from parents.Now the finial tide is coming in hopefully in time my sister will see me as a peer someone that she can respect and look to as an equal.
Over the years have come to understand that the kitchen is not only the place you put the dirty dishes it is the only place that some feel they can put out there dirty laundry.Ask any realtor and they will tall you that most homes are sold because the buyer liked the kitchen. This is because when we walk in a kitchen we don't see a stove or smell the meal to come we feel the love and hear the stories that could be told space the traditions that may be passed. Its not a girl thing its not a southern thing it just is.Somethings just are one more thing I learned in the kitchen.

give her a brack blog

I reading on the daily beast a piece that tucker Carlson did on why Carline Kennedy drop out of the fight for Clinton's old job and he wrote, "The real reason Caroline didn't get the job isn't taxes. It's that she antagonized liberal interest groups, offended the Clinton's, and generally bungled the effort." Two things that I learned from reading this is one that Jon Stewart was right Carlson is a dick and two i think he is wrong. I think that Carline drooping had anything to do with the Clinton I think that she simply got a little swapped up the idea of doing something for your country just like everyone in else it she just got in over her head a little bit and we all saw it, you know when you know she went you know on TV.Thanks for reading and am I the only one that thinks that tucker Carlson should be a little nicer.

Obama blog

So today Obama took office and i still cant get it around my head that i have really seen history being made. As a young person the idea of a black commander and chief is not odd to be in till I take the time to think about. The best part was the speech it was mostly about being cohere and syncretic for the nation. After hearing the speech i think that he is going to be a newel but it up to us to do most of the work. thanks for reading

news blog

Hello everybody sorry that it as been a bit scents my last blog but I have a little busy with work and stuff.
Sometime when you read the news one as to understand that they must get bored and have to writ about shit that no one cares about.Like last week when the formal presidents Bush,Carter,Clinton President Bush new President Obama got together and the only things that the press talked about was where they were standing what they ate and what they were wearing. I wanted to yell at the TV that this was not a rewards show but something that really happens.Then today I saw on TMZ and the dailybeast about prince Harry using slurs on camera I read about and watched the video and I, myself think that he did not mean it in bad pneuma and in the long run will be nugatory (i don't if i used this word right) in his over all name.But then i read more and see that CNN international and the BBC also wrote about the story and I can not help but think that there must me more going on in the world then this to write about. I don't know. Thinks for reading plz comment Megan r Chapman
