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.

Love's Art Showing & My Cold Updates I'm sure you're sick of both subjects, but it's what's going on, so it's what I've got to talk about.
Love's Art Showing He met with the Gallery Coordinator last night. We were panicked because we thought they wanted to move forward pretty much immediately and we don't have the cash to frame that many pieces of art right now. Turns out, our worries were unfounded. She's actually planning it for May. Why so far out you might wonder? Simple. She actually has a background in antiques and art and is treating this like a full gallery opening. They are planning a full PR campaign with ads in the St. Petersburg Times and Tampa Tribune, announcements in their full-color newsletter that goes to all branches, and an official opening and reception to "Meet the Artist." So it's turning into quite A Big Deal. I can't tell you how excited I am over this. It just keeps getting better. I had no idea when I snagged the little application for him that it was going to turn into a full-scale event!
My Cold Yesterday I felt like death. When every single moment you ache and hurt and are more miserable than you can put into words. I went to bed around 11pm and slept until about 11am this morning. (Woke up a few times overnight, but never for long, and was able to get back to sleep each time.) Well, when I woke up this morning, I'd definitely passed the worst of it. You know how when you're sick, there's a point where you realize you will be human - and whole - again. You're not there yet and in fact you still feel quite like ass, but compared to how you did feel, you know you're on the way. I feel extremely weak but better.
Miscellany I'm still hoping I'll be mostly back to normal by Friday. I'm supposed to be covering at the temp job this Friday and Monday through Friday of next week. Seeing as I beyond desperately need the cash, I'm really hoping that over the next couple days, I'll get better. Unlike poor Love; his cold is still dragging on and it's well over a week now. I'm hoping mine won't last as long.
I just spent an hour and change taking the ornaments off the tree and packing them up. Jeez, it wore me out. Between Love being sick, me being sick and errands to run, we haven't gotten around to taking it down yet. The lights still need to come off, but I've got to rest. I don't want to push myself too far. The ornaments were enough of a workout. (It's miserable being even more fatigued than normal. Because my "normal" is a fraction of what's normal for everyone else. To have even less than my normal is a sad state indeed.)
The weather is cool today and tomorrow. Not a true cold front you might expect for this time of year were we push down towards freezing, but still, with highs in the 60's today and tomorrow, it's quite a bit cooler than the 80's it's been the last two months now. Jeez, it's been sweltering. When it's hot up north, there's no hope for us. It takes a pretty strong cold front to dip down far enough into our jet stream to give us a cold snap. With it being hot everywhere else, well, we've just been screwed. It's been record and near-record highs for two months now. Miserable. Sadly, it'll be back up near 80F by Friday and through the weekend again. Enjoy it while it lasts I suppose.
Alright well, I'm exhausted, so I'll close up here. Ta for now.
