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.

Hums
Man, I'm bored. Had a migraine last night, slept badly, woke up with it still in place. Had to drive to Love's folks' house today for his mom's birthday. Took us forever. Like an hour of hellish traffic. Hung out there for awhile, had to break down and take some excedrin for my head. Which then made me horribly, uncomfortably jittery. (Grr.) Came home, watched the pilot of Stargate: Atlantis on dvd that my friend Rand purchased today. And...that's about it. I've been trying to hook up with someone to visit their town in Animal Crossing: Wild World, but so far, it hasn't worked out. Keep missing people and getting replies when I'm not here and sending them when they're not. Grr. It's got this awesome functionality where you can WiFi to someone else's town or they can come to yours. That's too cool. I want to try it. We already run a WiFi connection in the apartment so there's no issue there. I just can't find anyone who's around when I am. Blarg. (Anyone on my list here have the game and want a visitor?) All-in-all, not much going on. Feeling better infection-wise. Finally. Took several days. Though the damned pills are massive; freakin' horse pills. So everytime I take them (twice a day/ten days), it rubs going down and makes me want to vomit. Just thinking about it makes me feel like I'm going to gag. They're so miserable to swallow. I've still got like six days of them too. Oy. *hums* Yeah. Um. Yeah. So that's really about it. Not a damned thing going on and I'm kinda bored. Hence the rambling and not so interesting entry. Sorry. They can't all be winners. Ta.

Moth Balls
Some mornings I wake up and my mouth tastes like how moth balls smell. I did't think this was humanly possible. I thought it took years of hard work cultivating that smell with a combination of old ladies and closests. It's frightening that my body can make that all on it's own. What in the world do I do in my sleep on those nights to wake up with moth ball breath? It baffles the mind. Viva Crest though, I'll tell you what.

PhoenixFire Designs Updates - New Items!
So I finally got around to doing a good-sized update to PhoenixFire Designs. I added five new bracelets, a necklace and a pair of earrings. The bracelets are all gorgeous Swarovski crystal.
Whoo hoo! :)

Sick, Pain, Agony
And that was only the first couple hours of my day. I was all set to head in for my temp day today. Got everything together last night - book, iPod, etc. - and got up on time. Stomach didn't feel good. It went downhill from there. I thought at first that it was just a stomach bug. If I took some pepto and gave it a little time, I could still make it in just a tad late. Not even close. From around 7:45am through around 10:30am, I was in agony. Crying and realizing things were way worse then originally thought. I knew what it was at that point. A UTI. Poor Love had to leave work, come get me, take me to the dr so he could tell me what I already knew so I could get a prescription for an antibiotic. My mom met me at the dr's office and then we drove over to Publix where we had to wait again for the Rx. I just got home. Not only have I been in pain all day, but I totally ended up flaking on temping for them. I feel like the biggest loser in the world. But yesterday I was completely fine. I had no idea this was coming. But I feel like everyone will think I'm just making excuses or something. I'm paranoid they won't want me back because they'll think I'm unreliable. But I really am sick. So sick I had to shell out $50 I didn't have to see the dr so I can take a prescription for the next ten days. Believe me, I rather have made $80 today for surfing the net and answering the phone. Hell, I'd rather have answered the phone for free rather then be in this amount of pain. I called and babbled a mostly incoherent apology to J., explaining what happened and that I was fine until this morning when I got up. That I had to make an emergency appointment with the dr and get an Rx. She said it was ok, and that these things happened and that they'd definitely call me next time they need help. But I still feel like a heel. A heel in pain and who's exhausted from the stress and infection that hit me 7:30 this morning. What an absolutely shitty day. One of those days I'm convinced the universe personally hates me. Of all days. I haven't had a UTI in like four years. Why today of all fucking days? Ugh. I'm going to lay down, try to rest (if I can stop having to run to the restroom every three minutes anyway) and forget today ever happened.

ATC's
ATC's is short for "artist trading cards." It's a free-form, pretty much anything goes type of art you make in the size of a standard playing card. People do collage or stamping, or painting or photography - any number of things. Anyway, I've made a few in the past but recently joined a livejournal community called tiny_arts that's going to be a monthly swap of atc's between members. So I broke out my craft supplies and made a batch. I needed for, I made twelve. ;) If you're curious, I put them together in a gallery here on the domain. ATC's - January 2006. This gives you a very basic idea of the concept, though I'm no expert at them. Some people make truly amazing works of art out of it. But I thought you might enjoy seeing what creative stuff I've been up to. Oh! And speaking of creative, I have a LOAD of new bracelets to list on PhoenixFire Designs. Look for them in the next day or two. Lots of new Swarovski crystal. *grin* 'k out for now.
Temp Tomorrow
Got a call from K. at my friend Rand's company and she asked if I could cover tomorrow. So it's short notice, but always good to get the call in the first place. She's going to be off and doesn't want to leave J. to deal with the phones. One day but a full day so a little cash to be coming my way. Of course this means I need to get to bed early tonight and get some sleep - or at least try - because it's an early morning tomorrow. Good news is that I'm inbetween dental appointments and in a period where it's not hurting. Had she called for Friday for example, I couldn't have done it because of the painkillers. This way the timing works out. :)

It's Supposed to Be January
So...today it reached 83F outside. (28.3C) That tied the record high for the day originally set back in 1937. Friday saw us as 81F. Ugh. It should be around 70F during the day, not over ten degrees higher! It's frustrating to have such heat in January. We don't get enough cool time off from the brutal summer here as it is, now we're tying record high temps? Jeez. On the better side of things, despite it being hot, humid and muggy out, I woke up with a noticable improvment in my mouth. It pretty much didn't hurt at all today. I didn't even take any tylenol. Yeah! Now I just have to wait until the 6th to get the perm crown put on and I'm done with this tooth. (And then it's three standard fillings to do after that.) I've been working on all of this for about ten months now, so you can see why I just want it to all be done. Almost a year is a long damned time to be constantly in mouth pain, being in and out of the dentist, and spending a ton of money that I didn't really have to spend. I'll be so happy when it's over. We went to see Underworld: Evolution today. Not bad. A little flashy/jumpy camera work for my taste, but that's the style these days. A lot of gore and "ew" moments but nothing like unwatchable. Just..er...violent I guess you'd say. (Decapitation, lots of blood spray, that kind of thing.) And damn! There's a full-on mega hot sex scene. It was like...woah. Are they really showing that? Naughty. This isn't a movie for kids. It earns it's "R" rating. Overall though, worth seeing if you're into that kind of thing or if you liked the first. They really set it up for a third though so we'll see what comes of it. Alrighty, just a minor update. Not much else to mention. 'Night.
