I'm Not Homeless!!!!
I found a place to live!!! I'm so relieved. I slept well for the first time last night, since the 14th, when I found out I had only 2 weeks to get out of my current place. My new place will be $574/mo, all bills paid, including cable tv. I think it's a good deal, and I'm signing a 6 month lease, so I can get and even better place once I've got better credit. Yay, me!!!!!! Smell y'all laterz.

That's a Buncha Bull
Joke for today;
A man was visiting Spain and passed by a restaurant in Madrid after a bullfight. They were advertising that they served the balls of the bull who lost the bullfight. Intrigued, the man went inside, only to find that where was a six-week waiting list to get to eat the loser's balls. So he signed up and came back six weeks later. When he got his meal, there were two teeny, teeny balls on his plate. He called the waiter over to complain.
"I've waited six weeks for bull balls. What are these?"
"Sir," the waiter said, "the bull doesn't always lose."
So, hello all. Today is another wonderfilled day, full of fun and excitement. Not.
I don't really have time to talk today, so I'll catch y'all later.

Never Back Down
Ohmygoodness, I went to the theater, and saw Never Back Down. I spent most of that movie turned on as hell. Not only was the fighting good enough to get the blood pumping (tee he he), but the bodies on those boys... ohmygoodness... Anyways, today is tuesday, and unlike yesterday, I am in a good mood. I had a good dream, got a whole 5 hrs of sleep, and woke up this morning on the right side of the bed. My vanilla iced coffee has a little extra vanilla in it, so it's sweeter and smoother than usual, and I like it better... I am looking for an apartment, and believe me, I never really cared about my credit report, but It just up and slapped me in the face when 3 (count 'em, 3) places refused to rent to me because of my credit!!! I am getting so tired of paying the $30 to $50 fees, and then getting turned down, that I went to 4 other places yesterday, and told them flat out, first thing when I walked in, "I have bad credit, and I want to know that I have some kind of chance before I pay you any money for applying." Some of them, I think, appreciated my honesty, and flat told me back, that if I couldn't get approved at the 3 places I'd already been, that they would probably turn me down as well. One place, which is probably where I'll end up moving, said that they would rent to me regardless, but that if my report doesn't come back clean, they would just charge an extra $200 in the deposit. Works for me. Trust me, I intend to devote this year to paying off alot of debt, since an extra $300/mo is free since I paid off my car. I will lease for a year at this place, and at the end of this year, I intend to have good enough credit to get into a place that I could bring friends to without worrying that we'll get shot at; but I'll tell you what; I'll Never Back Down.

The Bottom Line
A cowboy rides his horse up to a saloon.
All the patrons gawked as the cowboy kissed his horse on the butt before coming in and asking for a drink.
The bartender serves him and asks, "Mind if I ask why'd ya kiss your horse on the butt?"
The cowboy says, "It's 'cause I got chapped lips."
The bartender asks, "Does manure help them heal?"
Cowboy replies, "No, but it keeps me from licking them."

What's your Rapper Name?
My friends and I were talking, and it came up in conversation; what would your rapper name be? I told them mine would be fo'ty cent; kind of like fi'ty cent, but on sale, 20% off.
Gotta Love It
Okay. So. It's monday... Gotta love it. I have started to get the urge for something different, which figures, since I've had the same job for just barely more than exactly one year... I get this feeling every time I stay in one job for this long. It's all psychological, I know, but I can't help it, and ignoring it, just makes me depressed, and grumpy. I try to not be like this, but, I guess I'm just one of those people who need to do different things, experience new things, go new places; and being tied to a desk 8 hours a day, everyday, just starts to feel stifling. Usually about this time, I start to have weird dreams; which I think is my subconscious screaming for an escape from my everyday. I try to write, but I just don't have the discipline to sit down, and organize my thoughts enough to seriously write something. Usually, I get a few notes down, maybe write a chapter or two, then I just lose interest, and don't touch it for a few months. 28 years old, and I just can't seem to settle on one career, and be happy for longer than a year. What's wrong with me? I don't know, maybe it's just the Monday Blues. Back at work after an extended weekend (don't get any ideas, my damn car broke down, again, $500 down the freakin' drain...) and I just don't want to be here anymore. Oh, well, Gotta Love It........

Family Guy
Hey, so I just found this website, and I think it is AWESOME!!!! You can watch every single episode of FamilyGuy for FREE!! Even the movie, Blue Harvest. Check it out!
Laptop Hell
Ok, so I just, finally, got my laptop working properly. I get up this morning, after reinstalling XP on it, again, last night, and find that my WIFI card is missing the drivers... aaaargh!!!! I search my computer stuff box, and no install cd. So, what do I have to do? Go around to stores and try to find a new card, because I obviously can't download the driver if I can't get on the internet... I finally find a reasonably priced card at Wal-Mart, $59 wireless G MIMO - (upper middle-class WIFI card), go to Borders, and find out that their extremely expensive T-Mobile Hotspot ($10/day, can you believe it?) is not working, no ETA for a fix, and the girl tells me to go to Starbucks!!!!! "Starbucks?!?!" I exclaim, "Are you joking? I hate that place!!!" Then the girl smiles, and tells me, "I like your reaction." :{ Knock me over with a sneeze, but I like this girl's spunk. Anyway, off to the public library I go, not expecting much, but lo and behold, I sign in, and it's better than my connection at home (which I am currently phishing from one or another of my neighbors)! 54Mbps!?!?! I only get 11 at home... I knew there was a reason I love the library. Anyway, smell ya'll laterz, gotsta bounze.

Take Action
"I honestly think it's the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam."
That's from an Oklahoma lawmaker's speech about gay people.
You heard right. A secret recording has just emerged of State Rep. Sally Kern speaking to a Republican group in January, where she equates both sexual orientation and religion with terrorism.
She thought no one was listening. Now hundreds of thousands are. And despite her refusal to apologize, we won't let her get away with this.
Tell Oklahoma's governor and top legislators to publicly denounce Kern's remarks.
This recording, first released in a video by the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund, is all the more troubling given the recent spate of hate violence against gay and transgender youth.
Last month in California, a 15-year-old boy, Lawrence King, who suffered taunting and bullying by his classmates because of his sexual orientation, was killed by one of those classmates – a 14-year-old boy. The week after Lawrence King's death saw the murder of another teen, this time a 17-year-old transgender youth in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Words matter. Especially words from elected officials. Rep. Kern's private feelings towards homosexuality and Islam are one thing. But public statements that encourage disrespect or violence towards those with whom she disagrees are completely unacceptable.
Write to Oklahoma's leaders immediately and tell them Kern's remarks must not be tolerated.
Here are a few more completely unfounded claims from her speech:
"The homosexual agenda is destroying this nation."
"No society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted for more than, you know, a few decades."
"What's happening now is they're going after, in schools, two-year-olds."
Kern must be held responsible. Please send this message to your friends and ask them to join you in taking action.
Thank you for speaking out at this critical time. And special thanks to the Gay and Lesbian Victory Fund for exposing this anti-gay bigot. To add your name to the Victory Fund's open letter to Rep. Sally Kern, click here: http://www.victoryfund.org/listening.

first entry
so,
I'm inspired by my friend dbo to write this blog... but, I'll tell you; you're gonna think I'm crazy. I have been told that serial killers and psychopathic murderers have had better childhoods than me, but that I am incredibly well-adjusted in spite of it. I'll try not to bore everyone with sob stories about my abusive "father" and what he did to me. Mostly, probably, I'll write what I think about certain issues that I feel strongly about. Let me warn you though, I am anything BUT p.c.
