Reminder...

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.

*gets off soapbox*

A Literal Warm Fuzzy!
I had a great mail day yesterday. An unexpected package arrived and I had to dedicate an entry to it because it's so nice.

Phoe of ptm designs who is an absolute sweetheart, sent me a lovely, handmade scarf.


The colors are so pretty! Blues, greens, purples, some burgandy mixed in - it's so rich and jewel-tone.


It's all long and cool and looks so neat! (Ignore the bad hair and the fact I'm wearing my glasses in the photo.


As you can see, I was having problems getting a shot. This one I triggered accidentally. It wasn't the first. My camera has a sound activation so you can delay and clap or something to trigger it. But the sensitivity was set too high and it kept going off when I was trying to put the camera down.


See, a few weeks ago or so, she had posted some images of things she'd knit. One was a purse with this fabric. I complimented her on how nice the colors were and said it'd make a nice scarf. The variations in the color just seemed like it'd lend itself nicely. We joked though that I don't get a lot of months here in Florida to wear a scarf. Then a few days later I laughed and posted again and told her that in the irony of ironies, we had a cold snap for a couple days right after I said that.

Well, you might know, I had an entry back at the end of March where I said simply, "I need a pick me up." So when the package arrived, in the letter, she mentioned it. But Phoe, you were wrong. It's exactly the kind of pick me up I needed. *smiles*

She also sent a very cool scent locket and a bpal scent. So sweet. But the scarf is just so fun. I love it. I think next time I go to the movies I'm going to wear it just for the hell of it. It's always cold in there anyway! I, being a crafty person, absolutely cherish when someone else crafty makes something for me. Especially when it's a crafty thing I don't know how to do. It's just great.

So anyway, just a bright bit of cheer in an another wise gloomy journal of late. And I wanted to thank her for her kindness and the coolness of sending it to me.

Ok, back to housecleaning. Love's surgery is set for 8am (ack!) tomorrow morning and there's a lot still to do. Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and well-wishings.
