mmmmm

If this is the first entry you're seeing, it's because my journal has gone underground for a while. Divorce is not fun, and equally not as fun is having unsavoury people reading your take on it.

So friend me if you will, but know that you may be subject to a bit of scrutiny as I attempt to verify your identity. ;)

anyway...

I can't stop laughing at this pic:



constantine, what are you DOING???

he certainly does get around with the ladies though...



but i can't help but love the guy.



whee!!

also, i just opened a box of pop-tarts i got tonight at wal-mart (yay for evil corporate pop-mart wal-tart empires!!!), and the expiration date on the top of the box is:

MAR 04 2006

which just happens to be my impending 30th birthday.

Is the whole world conspiring to bring my ass down?

Find out, AFTER THIS BREAK!!

AAAAgh, fuckety fuck fuck. I just tried to upload some crap to photobucket, and I got this message:

"Sceduled Maintenance from 1-1:30 mst.

Images are serving fine


The Photobucket Team"

First of all, "Sceduled???" Second of all, it's about 5 minutes till, fucking sly motherfuckers. And third of all, FUCK!

The ghost pics (and the weird fucking email i got tonight) will have to wait till tomorrow, kiddos.

--le sigh--

(cross-posted photobucket message to web_police and spelling_snobs because i'm THAT pissed off)

I hope to fuck I'm not the only person who noticed this shit.

saw the midnight star wars and now it's 4am and i'm not asleep yet.

and i'm afraid i'll have icky toasted-marshmallow-darth-vader dreams.

fuck!

So i get an email from the britney spears mailing list (shut up) and it starts out:

"Don't miss the one-hour premiere of "Britney and Kevin: Chaotic" TONIGHT at 9 PM EST on UPN. The show chronicles Britney and Kevin's courtship, engagement, and wedding through exclusive home videos, shot mostly with their own camera!"

--raises hand-- uh, isn't that what home movies ARE?

*confused*

anyway... got rid of the paint cans, cancelled NINE magazine subscriptions, scheduled 2 doctor/dentist appointments (had to reschedule the hair appt too cause i'm dumb), made some phone calls (mortgage company regarding escrow account, home insurance company regarding dates of coverage, home warranty company regarding upper level AC on the fritz, numerous doctors regarding incorrect bills from oct-dec 2004, book clubs to cancel pending shipments, etc.), made arrangements for electricians and tree services to give estimates (regarding the water heater situation and the badly-in-need-of-pruning magnolia tree situations, respectively), and went to trivia (and lost, lol).

tomorrow: american idol presale at 10am (i said shut UP!), one electrician sometime between like 8 and 11am, dentist appt (cleaning) at 1:15pm, psychiatrist at 3pm, another electrician around 5pm, and one tree dude coming sometime tomorrow but he has no idea when and can i just leave the gate open..... riiight, ok. whatever.

sometimes i wish we had just kept renting.

lol

"Happy Days of Young Sheep: I' 'm a sheep, young handsome sheep. They say every sheep looks like me very much. But look at them carefully. Their faces are a little bit difference. So I' 'm lonesome sheep. Would you date me?"

(on Japanese stationery, found in engrish)

a pretty quiet and uneventful day. Got some plants (to help create the illusion that we give a fuck how the front yard looks, as someday we may need the assistance of our neighbors for something and don't want to be remembered as the people who drove down the property value for the entire block), and some applications, and some other crap, i dunno, went to the bank, donated some yarn to gourmet yarn company (they're doing some blankets-for-the-poor thing and need yarn and knitters for it) and got some laundry & dishes done.

tomorrow: badly needed haircut, more apps, more gardening and laundry, a trip to the book beat and the thrift store, and some good ole'-fashioned car cleanin'.

Ah, unemployment.

Nevertheless, life is good. And goes on. :)

Fantastic response to 'Piano Man'

BBC News Online, UK Edition, Monday, 16 May, 2005, 12:30 GMT 13:30 UK

A helpline set up to identify a mystery man who stunned carers by giving a virtuoso classical piano performance has been inundated with calls.

The man has not said a word since police picked him up wandering the streets of Sheerness, Kent, in a soaking wet suit and tie on 7 April.



His social worker Michael Camp said the man, in his 20s or 30s, is usually very anxious but "comes alive" at the piano. ( rest of article here... )

Anyone who has information about The Piano Man is urged to call the National Missing Persons Helpline on 0500 700700.



So today i decided i need to keep taking adderall every weekday to:

#1. keep in a forward momentum (the stuff doesn't really let me sit still and do nothing, or fall asleep, lol)

#2. keep the weight off (class reunion, y'know, don't want to be unemployed AND chubby, LOL)

so that's what i'm doing.

today is dedicated to getting niggly little errands done like:

--taking old paint cans (from previous homeowner, found in garden shed) to hazardous waste dump (finally!)

--attempting to sell a bunch of old books to the book beat

--donating another load o'crap to salvation army

--swinging by the consignment shop to see if a) any of my stuff has sold and b0 if they are still interested in giving me some hours to help them get their back room shit organized and the consignors' clothes on racks and labeled (the one true skill i know i have is dealing with unwieldy back rooms!)

--getting back on the doctor's appointment track by scheduling a therapist, psych, and dentist appointment (and taking care of any outstanding balances)

--going to the grocery store to get gatorade and razor blades (don't ask)

--picking up some snooty restaurant applications (musashi, nikz, you get the idea)

--and going back by the make-up bar to a) get reimbursed for the cool laminate trays and buckets i bought at target for them to use as product display in the new store and b)pick up my m.c. solaar CD i accidentally left there (you know how bloody hard it is to find decent French gangsta rap in OKC?) (and possibly to tell ex-co-workers THE TRUTH about my mysterious departure... "seeking other opportunities" my ass!!! ...but probably not because the "true" story is just pathetique)

so off i go to bathe and meet my errand destiny!

new community, y'all:

aw yeah.

i was talking to my ole' penpal who lives in CA online today. he's my age (ok, ok, like half a year younger) and in law school. and we were talking about what he'll be doing as a lawyer. and it occurred to me what it's going to be like when the punk/alternative/neo-hippie/goth/whatever kids from my generation get the BIG jobs like lawyers and doctors and stuff, because of the way he phrased this comment:

him: "non-lawyers have no real idea what attorneys actually do....like my doctor friends all think i'll be suing them and shit. i'm like, no, man, thats a diff kind of lawyer."

i always did like to give him shit for saying "like" 10 times a sentence and cussing like a sailor, but it'll be even funnier when he's doing it at work. ;)

blah blah blah. i went to trivia tonight, didn't even watch the show, certainly didn't vote. no point since the voting is so wacked out anyway. i miss this guy:



though, in other news, i got a bit of gardening done in the front yard last night, prepared the beds for some shady flowers, and today i consigned like 4 tupperware tubs full of clothes, so hopefully i'll get me s'money soon on that... uh...what else... crappy job interview which i turned down the job for cause it sucked, went to the mall and just walked around, went to trivia and bitched a little about american idol (lol), went to borders and almost bought the first season of "soap" on DVD until i remembered i need to save the money for now, and then came home and wasted a bunch of time dicking around on the 'net. lol... and now, as is tradition, the last thing i'll do tonight before i log off is to post this entry. so happy readin'.

oh, and another thing: come to the show at buzz's subs in norman, THIS saturday, the 7th, from like 8pm to midnight... BOTH of my brothers' bands (the gunship and ghost of monkshood) will be playing, along with two other awesome bands, for a measly 5 bucks! i'll be there too, and CDs of everyone will be available! w00t!

nite nite.
