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*


Tooth Drive Update: I've finished the root canal and the first part of the restore work. The vast majority of it has been paid but I am in still debt around $400 for the root canal. I've come a long way since discovering I needed around $2,000 for the emergency dental work. This has been possible with thanks to sales, support and savings. I'm almost there! You can help me finish paying off the bill by using one of my links below. Pass my jewelry link along to others. Help spread the word. I'm doing everything I can to raise the money, and your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

This And That
Last night I stayed up forever trying to make and pack up three penguin orders that had come in the week before. I was very delayed on getting them due to being sick last week. I wanted to make sure they got out as soon as possible. I also realized that I was taking around two hours of prep, sculpt, cure and packing time for a penguin and that I really didn't want to do it for $10 anymore. It's just way more work then that. I thought I might stop selling them. Love suggested I just raise the price. That way, if someone buys one, great, it'll be worth it and if they don't, no big loss. Did so last night and sure enough, got an order in today at the new rate. Color me plesantly surprised!

Things are going well on the infection front. We're past the pain/pressure part which is a relief. Of course my stomach is in hell from the antibiotics but, not much I can do about that. One more pill today and then four days after that left. Ugh. My stomach hates me on the best of days. Toss in antibiotic that kills even the good bacteria (and yes, there are good bacteria that aide in digestion) my system works hard to keep running at bare minimum and well...stomach from Hell.

Allergins are apparently really high today. I guess it started last night though because I kept coughing and wheezing and really just couldn't breathe. I laid down - around 4am by the time I was done with my orders - and just felt like I wasn't getting enough air. Took some Benedryl and it zonked me. I was pretty much dead to the world until around 1pm. Jeez. I tell you, the stuff kicks me in the butt. "May cause drowsiness" is like "May cause coma" for me! Problem is of course that it leaves me groggy, so I'm still kinda out of it and want to take a nap. Heh. Thankfully, my allergies only really annoy me a few days here and there throughout the year. (In Florida, we don't have a set allergy season, and you have issues year-round due to our warm climate.) I normally take some generic Claritin which works great, but it wires me so I didn't want to take it last night or I wouldn't have been able to sleep. Hence the Benedryl.

*hums*

I'm so mad because there's a bed-in-a-bag set that I wanted well over a year ago on amazon now that's gotten really cheap. Like half what it used to be. But even at like $125, I don't have that much cash. Which sucks, because it's an awesome deal. Eight pieces including a beautiful comforter, sheet set, shams, etc. Grr. It was almost $300 when I first saw it. My comforter is so old and ratty and man, am I sick of it. I'd love just once to have a real, adult, grown-up bed set. I don't have a single piece of matching furnature in my entire home, I still use this ugly-ass glossy brown dresser that I has as a kid back in PA, and we have this ugly wrought-iron headboard that isn't even screwed into the bed frame. Is it so much to covet something pretty and grown up?

Oh well.

So....that's about it for the moment. A reminder that it's not too late to get a lovely piece of jewelry from PhoenixFire Designs in time for Valentine's Day.

TTFN.
