Poor Misti has been having problems with her internet since moving into the new home. I feel so sorry for her that I had a dream it started working last night. I hope she gets back soon. I miss her blogs! I DO!

Well I have been up to not a whole damn lot lately. The slight crisis mentioned below is that I'm no longer working for Nokia. Right now I should be okay for awhile. A big thank you to people who have donated to my sorry cause. I know you don't have to and I'm thankful for your giving hearts. :) I'm looking around for some temp work until about January. At that time I'm hoping to get a position at a website design place that my cousin does business with. That would be outstanding. In the meantime, I've been sharpening my Tribes 2 skills and getting to know some of my internet friends a little better. I even have a DATE next weekend, if you can believe that! :P We're debating whether or not I want to see The Ring. He has seen it and wants to take me to see it, but it's scary and me + scary = bad and also not good.
I've also been messing around with some music and sounders for TsN. Cruncha Cruncha Cruncha asked me to sing a little clip for him and this is a clip of what he created. I think it's amazing. I'll put up the full version of it once he has completed it. I'm really excited about working with him on music stuff. It's FUN!! :) Okay that's the update for the day.
The ever present and lovely Gonzo sent me this link. You'll at least get a cute "teehee" from it.
Enjoy your Sunday!! I'm going to with my family. :)

If you've been contemplating using the paypal donate button over there, now is the time I could use it. Even more than before. To those who have donated, thank you thank you thank you so much. Slight crisis and I could use anything that any of you are willing to give. I feel bad posting this and I'm sorry to make any of you feel badly for me. That's not my intent. I'm just trying to use all of my resources and this is one of them. Thank you again to those who have given. :)

I'm following in the footsteps of Mykie and I'm drinking water instead of coke now. Granted, this only started yesterday, but I'm just sick of the carbonation. That's usually what I crave when I want a tall Sonic cup of Coke, but the more I drink it, the more it makes me feel bloated and gross. I'm sure it has always made me feel bloated and gross, but I never realized it. Now I do. Yesterday I stared into my fridge at a can of coke and bottle of water and I chose the water. And I drank it all. And then I drank another bottle. I can't say I feel rejuvenated yet, but I can say I feel less full. My nose is so cold. Now I'm going to eat my sandwhich and my banana and drink my water. Let's see how long this lasts, shall we?
Why exactly do you people have blogs at all?! You never use them!!! AHHHHHhhhhh

I'm slightly concerned that someone stole my sign tonight. I wonder if there is a union out there for people who put signs, menus and coupons on doors. I'll bet if there is, they are behind it. Don't you worry your pretty little heads. I'm going to make another one and I'll continue to make them if they are stolen every single day. God knows I have enough menus from the past that I can write on and tape to the door.
FYI - It is safe to purchase the new Get Up Kids cd - On A Wire. It does, in fact, rock out. Thank you.

Listening to the new Get Up Kids album with high hopes. I'll let you know how the hopes turn out. Rawr Getup Kids.

Mykie did very well. Very good show. *many cheers* He looked so happy, too.
I removed the italics from Misti since she doesn't have internet. I'll give a gal a break.
I'm so terribly tired. G'night.

I had a crap operator last time I called AT&T for an ESN change (too much detail, I know, most don't know what it means and it's useless to the story. anyway...) and he screwed it up, so I had to call back. I got him again. The odds of that happening are so very little. You don't even understand. I can barely get the same operator twice a month, much less twice in one day and less than an hour apart. He just called me Mylena. His name is Tom. Don't worry all you Tom's that I know. I won't hold it against you. No sirree. I'm ready to go. *sigh*

I went to the cafeteria for lunch for the first time in a long time. I usually go get a burrito or grilled cheese in the morning, but haven't been there at lunch in awhile. And what did they have? Banana pudding. One cup left! I got it! And I inhaled it. I love that stuff. YUM!
Tonight is Mykie's band debut and I am SOOO excited!! It will be so awesome. GOODLUCK MYKIE! You will do GREAT!!

Well apparently people really dislike the italic links that tell the world how lazy they are with their blogs. I might have to start doing a daily update. I might have to write a program that goes to their pages twice a day to see if they've updated and if they haven't ... WHAM! (wake me up, before you go go), they'll be italicized!!! Or maybe I should italicize people until they paypal me. haahaahahaheheheha;hd I'm drunk with power. Or maybe I'll just check once a week to see who on my list hasn't updated and then I'll italicize them myself. Once Lenore gets his blog world figured out, I'll add him and there are a few more people out there who I've helped with website stuff. My sister has become a blogger extraordinaire! I hope she keeps it up. Now I can see why my family likes reading my daily crap so much. It's nice. I believe everyone should have a blog. Who needs to talk on the phone? Just WRITE!! Maybe that's a bit extreme. My new bloke friend taught me some neat brit slang last night. Knackered. Muppet. Those are the only two I remember that I didn't already know before. Oh well. Today has been such a great day. I don't know why and I don't care. I'm just glad it has been so great.

I'm wearing a sweater today that I haven't worn in a really long time. It smells like my grandma. Normally that would freak me out or make me sad, but it's comforting today. I don't know why.
Okay Mykie, you're fixed. I had to change your template because blogger got rid of the one you had before. If you click on Template - Choose a New Template, you can pick one out yourself, if you're so inclined. That one actually is supposed to look a little bit cooler, but the images it automatically uploaded won't work until I can get home and put them in the right spot. I could probably email this to you, but I don't know your address. *shrug*

My boss was listening to the news about the "sniper" on her radio and some random Dr. Smartay Pantz made the comment, "This person obviously gets some sick thrill out of what he's doing." No way, dude. I was totally thinking, "I'll bet he has been so darn nice his entire life that he feels it's time to make up for it before the karma police catch up with him." Not only do we have to deal with a freak who decides to pick people off, we have to deal with the freaks who want their five minutes of national publicity for being a Dr. Smartay Pantz AND we have to deal with the idiotic media freaks who feel it is their duty to find out every little detail so they can let the public know, thereby protecting them. You dumb shits. If you think spilling all the secrets that are being investigated is going to protect anyone, you're just, well, a dumb shit. What are the odds that this guy is hearing the same news that the rest of us are? Ono, maybe he's one of those eccentric types who watches the BBC. And who says it has to be a guy, anyway?

I'm listening to Incubus now and I wish Brandon Boyd would fall out of the ceiling beside my cubicle like Coolio Snoop Dog E. Dawg or whoever that dude was did in that commercial.
Thanks, Adm for the correction. I forgot to study up on my hip-hop history.

I've been listening to the New Fiction CD I was just talking about all day. The first song is really great. /me claps for Mykie and co.
says MarissaD at 10/14/2002 01:16:00 PM
Yesterday Mykie gave me a CD that has four songs on it from his new band New Fiction. I gotta say, I likes it. They're going to be playing in Denton on Thursday at around 9 or 9:30 at Andy's on the square, downtown Denton. If you're in the area you should stop by. I'll be putting up one of the songs tonight when I get home. I went to the All American Rejects concert with Mykie and the lead singer for this band. I've known Mykie for a little while now, but Bryan, wow. He has a really good voice and he can make the best armpit farts I've ever heard. And he looks like Val Kilmer, if you're into that kind of look. Mykie's rad on guitar. He's a musical genius! (Stevie ran into a tree, right?! HA. HA. Very funny muthaf*&%$@! Two pennies for anyone who knows that.)

The movie was pretty good, but a tad too long. I think I might've enjoyed it more on DVD while sitting on a cozy couch or in my cozy bed.

So at the advice of the now updated Adm, I'm going to see Spirited Away with the broken Mykie and non-webby cousin Richard. I hope it's as good as they say.

I'm still awake, thanks to Stargate SG-1.
My cat is weird. From what I can tell, she doesn't eat much unless I'm here and standing beside her bowl, so now my ritual of changing into my nighties takes place in the kitchen by her bowl. She's afraid of the wind and the shadows that the trees make on the blinds. She goes apeshit and runs around the apartment for about 5 minutes right after she poops. She hates to be held, but loves to fall asleep on my tummy or my head when I'm trying to sleep. She refuses to sit on the bedspread, only the sheets. She'll stand beside the bed and whine until I fold a corner of the bedspread over, exposing the sheets. I'm pretty sure she's bi-polar and has a nice dose of obsessive compulsive disorder. Maybe I should share my pills with her.

While I was just re-arranging things over there to the left, (read: 'please?'), I stopped by Tom's, as I tend to do on occasion. Sometimes it's just really great to read so much information compiled into one post. I mean, I really appreciate it. I'm so not being sarcastic, but I'm sure everyone will think I am. Go read his stuff. The man is a friggin' genius. I mean he married into my family and I'm pretty sure it was by choice.
Can you tell I'm bored at work on this Friday afternoon? Yeah..

When I get junkmail in my hotmail junkmail folder, I always go through it because invariably one or two legit emails get sucked into it. As I'm skimming through the list, when I reach message 84 or 85, there's always a one namer like David or Amy. Common names. Everyone knows a David and an Amy. Despite that, I'll look at the subject line and think, "I could see David/or/Amy typing 'Hello friend. It has been awhile.' " Even though no one on Earth types like that. Of course I open it and of course it isn't for me. Just goes back to my hate for spammers. They fool me everytime. Everytime!

Greg, the new guy that I've been training, we call him Betty because when he calls us from his desk, it shows up as Betty on our phones because it's not really his desk. Anywho, he brought some paperwork to me just now and when he turned to leave, his sleeve was stuck on my coat hanger, so I said, "Hang around." Hah! Then I laughed, slapped my knee and snorted. It was actually really funny. I swear to God.

Warning: This is one of those times when I have to write to purge my mind of the thoughts. Don't worry. Just read them and take a peak into me.
All that you gave me, my love, the lies, the veil of deceit that was spoonfed to my mouth, it will all pass and become but a breath in the span of my life. An exhale. A disposal. A place in my mind where the memories that are no longer needed go to rest until my last day, when I will seal them up in a black envelope and throw them into the furnace of the forgotten to burn and never be remembered again. I can call you my love because what I shared and showed to you was love. It was desire, understanding, forgiving, pain-staking love. Love that has dispersed into tiny shreds of memories. An exhale. A disposal.

Okay, so you might notice my new logo over there to the left. It's a link to a PayPal donation form. I just thought I would throw it out there in case anyone that reads the site would like to help out with hosting costs and such. It's sad and it's a low point for me. Hopefully I'll be able to take it down soon, but for now, if you'd like to help me out, I would very much appreciate it.
I have no idea why that's funny. It just is. Like seeing your favorite sitcom with a different language dubbed. It's just funny.

I just figured out that if you type bemoedee with your right hand in the wrong spot on the keyboard it spells beniedee, but I only got to benied, so it was kind of funny. In a weird mood.
