Blogroll Me!
There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time
then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours
a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a
day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their
opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into
their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.
To these people I say grow up.
Here's a bit of info people...the web is
a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I
do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or
whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's
really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in
the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty
site has disappeared.
I pay for this site. It's mine. That
means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm
bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else.
Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read
them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live
and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care.
This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or
fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and
express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't,
it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

Freezing in Florida - Part Two
They take this stuff seriously around here. You have to remember that getting into freezing temperatures isn't a common occurance. And they fret and warn and remind you to bring in or cover up your plants and don't leave pets out, yada, yada. A little later in the season and they'll be news reports all over of trying to keep the strawberry crops from freezing over in Plant City. (Which, apparently is the Winter Strawberry Capital of the World.) Anyway, they don't mess around with the cold warnings around here. As exampled by this National Weather Service Advisory they put out: Severe weather alert from the national weather service ...charlotte-citrus-de soto-hardee-hernando-highlands-hillsborough-lee- levy-manatee-pasco-pinellas-polk-sarasota-sumter- including the cities of... Arcadia... Bartow... Bradenton... Brandon... Brooksville... Cape coral... Chiefland... Clearwater... Fort myers... Inverness... Lakeland... New port richey... Port charlotte... Punta gorda... Sarasota... Sebring... Spring hill... Tampa... Venice... Winter haven and zephyrhills. 244 pm est tue dec 14 2004 This is as big of news here as the hurricane tracking was a few months ago. They actually have to remind people to bring in their pets and educate them on how to dress warmly! It's sad and funny all at the same time. Anyway, my blanket, heat, sweater and I will be drinking some hot tea, eating some leftover lasanga from the other night and staying inside. :)
