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.

Lazy Morning
Just the way I like it. In fact, I only got up about a half an hour ago. I did, however, take some benedryl right before bed because my nose was going crazy (sneezing and wouldn't stop running!) which always totally zonks me out. I think I could lay back down still and nap some more. Friday I ended up going over to my mom's after my appointment. She got a digital camera and printer combo - her first. And she has asked me to come by and "look at it" to tell her if it was a good deal. I'm like, "Mom, without looking up reviews, there's not a lot I can tell you about it just by looking at it." Yeah, well, can you just look at it anyway?  Turns out, what my mom meant was, "open the package it came in and set it up." She's had it for a few weeks now and hadn't even taken the tape off the box!  They got the set really cheap. It was mis-marked on the shelf, but Office Depot gave them that price. It came with the camera, a case, a memory card, the AA batteries, the printer, the ink the cables (including USB which they don't normally do) and a pack of photo paper. I mean, all-inclusive. Pleasant surprise. Still took me the better part of the afternoon to hook it all up and get it configured. She's running a Win98 pc with only 64 megs of ram. The software didn't even want to install without a notice that it was under the suggested minimum. Installing the software litterally took about 1.5 hours. Then I had to try to show her the simple button options and how to access the menu on the camera.She seemed nervous but happy when I was done. I told her it's no big deal. Play with it and have fun. Even if she isn't thrilled and amazed (though she's using a point-and-shoot 35mm so upgrading to a point-and-shoot 5MP really shouldn't be much different), she got the camera and printer for $120. The printer is probably worth that much on it's own. I told her to just play with it - "think of it like a fun toy mom and just play around!" - because there's never a reason not to shoot the camera when it's digital. Don't like it? Poof, deleted. No waste. Yesterday (Saturday) Love had to get up and head into work just like normal. They are in the process of moving and half the company had to be set up in the new building for work on Monday. The second half will be next weekend. (Which totally sucks. Next weekend is the weekend before my birthday. If we do anything for it, we'll have to wait until the weekend after since he's working the 13th-14th.  ) Poor guy didn't get home until like 8:30pm. My friend Rand was nice enough to take me around to run my errands that needed doing. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had a way of leaving the house.Today there's not much planned. That's ok, I'm more then happy to have a nice, quite, lazy Sunday. Love certainly can use it too. (He's so sore from all the moving and set up of half the company's computers.) Tomorrow both of us are back to work, so the lazier today the better. Guess that's it. Just felt bad that this had been sitting since Thursday. I wasn't able to update Friday and normally I never get around to updating over the weekend but I didn't want to wait until tomorrow to post anything. So, hope everyone's having a nice weekend and ttfn. (  Only 9 days until my 29th birthday. Craziness!)
