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.

V-Day, Delay, Hooray V-day: Of course, today is Valentine's day. So first up is a wish for everyone to have a lovely day. Love and I are dead broke until Friday, but we were thinking of having at least a nice dinner here at the apartment. Problem was that United Airlines doesn't have their act together today.
Delay: See, my friend Rand had to travel to Washington State for business. He's coming back in this afternoon. Scheduled to arrive at 3:45pm. Well, seems that they're having a major SNAFU today - all their flights are badly delayed and/or canceled. His plane was coming from Vegas to Denver where he'd pick it up and come in to Tampa. Well, they were 186 minutes late leaving Vegas, pushing his departure from Denver 160 minutes late. His new estimated time of arrival here in Florida was 5:50pm, but that pushed to 6:15pm and now they're telling him locally it will be more like 6:30pm. Getting to-and-from the airport area at this time of day is traffic nightmare. And it means that there's just no way to do dinner since I'd be home pretty late after picking him up.
Hooray: So he just called me again from Denver. (The first was to alert me of the delay problems.) He said he'll just take a taxi from the airport home instead of having me drive out there and ruin my evening. He can write it as a business expense anyway, so it's not a big deal. Which is nice of him. Because, yeah, it would stink not to even be able to sit down and enjoy dinner together tonight. Poor Rand already has been sitting around the airport for like three hours as it is. He couldn't even leave and come back because his winter coat is packed in his luggage. Makes for a looooong day for him.
Another, off-topic hooray is that I heard back from the Valentine Penguin buyer last night. He was appreciative of my efforts and not at all mad about the likely delay in arrival. He even said he'd recommend my site to others. Sweet! Word-of-mouth always seems to go a lot further than someone randomly finding my site through a search or something. The package arrived in his state and has been through two facilities in his state so far. The second location's zip code is numerically close to the zip of the delivery address. Maybe we'll have a Valentine's miracle afterall. Hrm, well, maybe not. He must really be rural because where it last checked in is 41 miles from where it's going according to MapQuest. Oh well.
Anyway, I need to get dressed and get running since now I've got time to run to the store and grab some food for dinner. Have a great day everyone!
