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.

Wilma Comes So yeah. This is cheerful. A quick search of google news gives me:
Wilma Winds Hit 175 MPH as Storm Heads for Florida Wilma becomes strongest Atlantic storm on record Record-breaking Hurricane Wilma heads for Florida Third Category 5 hurricane breaks record Wilma, fiercest hurricane, threatens Mexico, Fla Wilma Strengthens to Most Powerful Atlantic Storm Ever
Greeeat.
The barometric pressure in Wilma's center was 882 millibars (26.05 inches), the lowest ever recorded in an Atlantic Ocean hurricane, the center said. The lower the pressure, the greater a storm's intensity. The previous record was set in 1988 by Hurricane Gilbert, which had a reading of 888 millibars.
Super great.
Here's the current projected track. But some models are pushing it further north:
(I'm in the yellow circle))
If it comes this way - towards Tampa Bay - I'm utterly screwed. I don't have any money to my name, my car can't drive me to Orlando, let alone out of state (4-5 hour drive), I don't have a single credit card and I don't have anywhere to go. Much as I don't want Miami to get it, right now, I'm in the every-man-for-themself mode. I don't even have renter's insurance so if it came through here I'd literally be homeless.
Jeez. I need this like I need a hole in my head. It's bad enough I'm already overwhelmed by trying to do the impossible and raise over two thousand dollars, now there's a massive hurricane heading towards my state.
