28 year old
Pagan female who lives in Florida with her guy and two cats,
loves Disney, reads fanatically, tinkers in photography and
believes growing up is overrated.
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.

Oh Great. 9:15pm: Realize you're really hungry because you pretty much haven't eaten today, so run to the supermarket down the road to get some stuff for dinner.
9:25pm: Leave store, go to car discover it won't start because battery is dead.
9:26pm: Call your friend who thankfully lives right up the road.
9:35pm: Friend shows up. Realize that today is the last day before a Holiday and that everything will be closed Monday and that Love needs to get to work Tuesday. Friend takes us to Super Wal-Mart since it's the last chance to get a battery until Tuesday.
9:50pm - 10:40pm: Pick up battery and wait in line at Super Hell Wal-Mart.
10:40pm - 11:05pm: Try unsuccessfully to get old battery out, realize the tools you have just aren't working. Try again and get a turn over. Drive without rolling down the windows (powered and didn't want to risk not being able to get them back up), no a/c (of course, we can't use it anyway) and like a bat out of hell the mile home with friend following behind to be sure we make it.
11:10pm - Miserable, hot, sweaty (11pm: still a feels like temp of 88F) and with $55 less in our pockets that we didn't have to spend ($40-something for the battery, $1.50 FL Battery Tax, $7 Battery Deposit Fee + regular tax) there's a new battery in the back seat and a dead car.
Happy 4th to us, hu?
Tomorrow, it's take two to put the battery in just so Love can make it to work Tuesday. Tuesday he's going to try to run on lunch to get it tested to see if it's the alternator or the battery or what. At this point, we still have no idea why the battery just up and died so we have no way of knowing what's going to happen even with a new one.
It's been a bad weekend. I'm not even going to get into my electric bill from yesterday. I'm so upset I don't even want to talk about it.
Have I mentioned yet just how bad our one and only barely running car is? Yeah, thought so.
