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*

Trying to Update I've been trying to publish my new Autumn update for about an hour now but Blogger keeps timing out for no apparent reason. Hopefully, I can get it to work. I want to see how it looks live and finished!

In Other News I totally forgot to mention in today's entry that my cd burner died. Yup, dead. Gone. No more. A former burner. This sucks for many reasons. First off, I no longer have a cd rom drive in my pc now at all. It was my only one. Secondly, dammit, I can't burn anything. And third of course, it's another expense to replace that I just don't have. Which totally stinks.
What I really want to get to replace it is a dvd burner. There's really no point in spending $40 on a cd-r/rw drive when I can get a dual layer dvd-r/rw drive for like $50-70. Not to mention I desperately need to do backups anyway and I can't do it only on a 750 meg cd.
So, bah. It really stinks not having a cd drive.
Edit Man...I need $40. I can get one that has a good pc world review (in their top 5 internal dvd burners) for about $40. Check out the price grabber page here to see what I mean.
Dammit. If I could sell like 2 pairs of horns I could get it. Anyone want to buy some horns for halloween?

Oh Yeah...Posting So it's been [more than] a few days since I posted. Whoops. I'm recovering nicely from The Plague, but Love's still not doing so well. After missing Monday and Tuesday (a real rarity for him), he had no choice but to go in Wednesday. He wasn't really much better though. Poor guy's been running fevers on-and-off for days, and now he's coughing so hard he turns this shade of reddish purple. It's so bad. And uncomfortable just to hear, I know it must hurt. (He says his lower back is on fire from the strain of the coughing.) My nose is just still a little congested and my throat is scratchy but I went out to the mall with my mom yesterday and was fine.
I'm so behind on everything though. I have yet to make my fall theme for the journal, I have two horn orders that are STUPIDLY late at this point, I have a penguin to make for a friend, I have like 150 member applications to go through one-by-one for my forums (growing every hour) and gods! I just don't want to do any of it at the moment. I still feel like I lack the focus to sit down and Get Something Done.
So, alive, recovering though swamped and cranky about how long it'll take to get caught up. I think that about sums up the week so far. Heh. (Now I'm off to take a shower and then do some laundry and possibly eat before I'll have time to think about the other stuff that needs doing.)

The Plague It's official. Love and I are sharing something today on our 8th anniversary - the plague. Yup, we're both sick. Not quite the romantic togetherness I'd hoped for. United in phlegm not quite the same as united in say, a nice fondue dinner.

Back to the Future - Update Just a quick note. Updated the Back to the Future: The Ride tribute page with the video I took. It's almost all of the ride. Sadly, the employee there was an asshole and kept yelling, "TURN OFF YOUR CAMERA!" over the PA system. Anyway, I finally was able to get a rough file conversion done (my dig cam takes .mov files which are {a} huge and {b} impossible to convert without buying a video program) so I was able to take it from 109 megs to 10.6. Much more reasonable for a 3 1/2 minute movie.
Anyway, tribute page here or direct link to .wmv movie file here.
Enjoy.

Into Autumn Belated Mabon Blessings and belated Autumn wishes. Clearly, I'm a bit behind. (I haven't even gotten around to making a new, fall theme yet.) Sadly, I've been plagued with the Nose From Hell. Sometime Friday night, my nose started running and I started sneezing. Took some benadryl figuring it would help with the problems plus I could get some sleep because it always makes me drowsy anyway.
No such luck. I spend all of the night tossing and turning. Woke up Saturday morning and the really bad nose turned into a living nightmare. My nose wasn't just running, it was gushing. Within a few hours, I had used two packages of tissues, my nose and upper lip were chapped and red, I'd taken two claritins, two echinesea, four MSM's and it hadn't slacked in the slightest. At all. I don't think I've ever in my life had my nose so terribly not respond to anything. By the time I went to bed, I had taken two more MSM's and more benadryl just out of absolute desperation. (And drank several glasses of OJ and had some chicken noodle soup.) We had run out to get my vitamins and some beads for a project in the afternoon but that was more then I could endure and I came home and passed out for a couple hours. It is absolute misery to not be able to stop your nose, to have the awful, cloying sinus drip down the back of your throat, to have to sneeze constantly (something I loathe more then I can explain; sneezing is so horrible I hate it passionately) and to actually be sick to your stomach from the repeated tensing to blow your nose.
Went to bed pretty early last night and slept most of the night, only waking up a few times. I found that when I hadn't moved at all for an extended period of time, my nose cleared up, but if I rolled over or moved my head at all, I could feel it literally rush back into my nose so swiftly, my eyes would tear.
Hellbeasts (the downstairs neighbor kids) woke me up with some annoying jingling bell noise but I managed to nod back off until someone started vacuuming out their car in the parking lot and the shrill whine was too much to sleep through. I'm still tired - that kind of fatigue you get when your body is fighting off something or another - and my nose is still bugging me but no where near as bad as yesterday. Any normal day, I'd consider the state it's in annoying, but after yesterday, it's relatively half-way decent. My poor lips are badly chapped, my face is all red and dried out and I'm not sure if I just had the single worst allergy experience of my life (weed counts were high yesterday) or if it's some strange quasi-cold. Normal colds for me tend to come with sore throats which I didn't have, and fevers, which when I checked yesterday, I was only a few tenths above normal for me. Though today, Love says his throat is sore. So who knows what's going on.
It's a wasted weekend all-in-all and though it's formally Autumn, it's still 93F outside. We're also broke, so despite the fact that it's our anniversary (eight years) we won't be doing anything, going anywhere or having dinner or whatever. Sucks. Bad enough to be broke but then to be sick on top of it? Bah. Couldn't even run out to Disney this weekend, but I guess given how miserable I was yesterday and still not feeling well today, it's probablly better we didn't.
The words are starting to swim on the page, so I think that's my cue to wrap up. Hope everyone's having a better Autumnal weekend then I am around here.
