I’m currently working on getting some of my kiddo’s old books up on my other blog so that I can hopefully get some of them sold and buy him some new ones. This has been an on-going project of mine for quite awhile, and although I’ve been anxious to get it done, there always seems to be so much other stuff to get done. But I’m definitely going to have this done by the weekend. The kiddo is running out of reading material.

Speaking of books.. (wait I wasn’t actually speaking, was I?) I just finished reading the 4th installment of those traveling pants books, “Forever In Blue”. It was pretty good. I have another book by the same author Ann Brashares called “The Last Summer (Of You And Me)”, and I’m anxious to get started on that, but I’m also anxious to read “Sybil”. I dunno which to go with first. LOL. Chris bought me several books a couple of weeks ago off of Amazon.Com and eBay, which I’m grateful for, cause I absolutely love to read. I’m going to start swapping my books out for other books so that I’ll have new reading material.

This video was post about 2 weeks ago by Kid Rock on youtube. I love it. No, I do not promote theft, so get your heads out of your asses.

I am personally a big fan of the Kid, and I know this was all done in good fun.. but I think that perhaps he might be sending out the wrong message. I know for those of us that are smart enough, old enough, or just not too damn ignorant, this video won’t really have much of a lasting affect.. but you know kids are impressionable. And I foresee alot of lawsuits coming out of this. I can see it now, some parent crying about how Kid Rock influenced their child to STEAL. “He said steal EVERYTHING!!” Which in my opinion, would definitely be a cop out to the fact that they were shitty parents in the first place if their child is THAT impressionable, and that stupid mind you, that they would let the kid even get on the internet in the first place.. or not teach him that stealing is wrong?

I think it’s pretty funny to be honest. He’s telling everyone to illegally download his music because he’s “fuckin rich” and “how can I bitch about someone downloading a song or two”. Seriously, Metallica should have taken lessons from this guy. It’s not all about making the most money to some people. I know this “Public Service Announcement” was nothing more than a joke, and anyone who loves the Kid knows he’s got a whacky sense of humor, but seriously I just think that some people will probably make more out of it than should be. That’s just how people are.

“..And remember, stay in school and stay off the drugs.”

Rock on.

Diablo III will be out soon. I can’t freaking wait. I’ve not ever been a fan of other RPG games. I’ve never played WoW, or any of those others, but I have always loved Diablo. I started playing back in 1998, the original diablo was awesome. Back then I was into that game Quake a little bit as well. But as the years passed, the only RPG game that actually held my interest and kept me coming back for more was Diablo. I purchased Diablo II as soon as it came out, and then Lord Of Destruction after that. I’ve spent countless hours playing that game, and I’ve been wondering when they’d come up with D3. It’s sad.. I still remember the very first time I ever played that game. My friend Eric that I met online had sent me the game as a gift For Christmas, and I was absolutely thrilled. I played a bit with him, but mostly played alone, because being on dial up back then.. there was a tremendous amount of lag.

Diablo 3 boasts better graphics, which I must admit, are looking pretty damn nice. Stronger, and way cooler enemies, and a much easier navigation. If you’re familiar with Diablo 2, and how not easy it is to navigate to get to your skills, you’ll appreciate the new navigation and the skill bar that makes it so easy to access your skills. There are more worlds to explore and from what I saw, better weapons, and more armor. Really, I can’t wait to play this bitch.

I think my air conditioning is going out or something. It’s blowing kind of cool air, but not really. It’s like 85 degrees in my apartment and I hate it. If you live in or around Houston, you know that having a broken air conditioner is not acceptable. Simply NOT acceptable!!! I’m going to call management tomorrow and hopefully get them to come out, but who knows how quick they’ll get out here. Man this is miserable.

Anyway, I’ve decided that I am not going to shop at Target anymore. It used to be my favorite store, but they never have the stuff I like. They don’t even carry the flaming hot fritos, nor do they have the sunkist cherry limeade. So whatever. It’s frustrating, especially when you go to a store for that specific reason and you end up not getting what you want @ all.

I found out yesterday that one of my uncles died.. 3 years ago. He was my dad’s brother. It might seem weird that I was not aware of his death, but the truth is I have pretty much nothing to do with those people. The only thing I really find sad about that situation is that they are all scumbags, and the only decent one out of the whole bunch of them was the one who died. Go figure. It did make me sad, cause I actually liked him, and had I not had to deal with all the rest of that piece of crap “family” I would have liked to have kept in touch with him over the years. Such is life though…

Despair.nu is back up. Well, it looks like it’s back, and an email went out saying that it’s “sort of” back up. So hopefully Veronica got all the kinks worked out that were causing problems. Well, except the email issue. The thing is, I haven’t been getting duplicate emails, so Idk. But either way, I’m glad it’s back up.

Life itself has been fairly boring lately. It seems the days are running into one another. I think a lot of that has to do with lack of sleeping. I did however fall asleep around 8:30 PM last night and slept until around 3:30 AM. I’ve been up ever since, but hey, I slept!! I am thankful for that. My OCD hasn’t been nearly as bad today, but it’s still there a bit. It just goes to different things, from organization to cleaning. This morning by 6 I had cleaned the kitchen, dining room, and did 2 loads of laundry. I know, I’m a weirdo.

I’ve noticed also, lately, that I’ve become addicted to various things.. like flaming hot Frito’s for example. I mean it can’t be good for me.. they are so hot, but I can’t help it. I love them. I also have moved on from my obsession with ICB root beer to Sunkist Cherry Limeade. It’s so good. It tastes almost like Sonic’s Cherry Limeade. Man, I talk about food a lot. LOL.

Anyway, I’ve got to go to make a run to the store because I’m out of printer paper and desperately need it, and also Cherry Limeade Sunkist.

I haven’t done one of these in a bit, and I liked this question.

That’s My Answer! For Friday June 27, 2008

Annoying Tv Commercial

What annoying TV commercial would you be happy to never see again?

My Answer:Personally I would prefer to never see that stupid ass Head On commercial ever EVER again. I hate it, and it annoys me so much I’ll sometimes totally turn the channel and watch another television program because I’d be angry at the other channel for playing the commercial. LOL. That sounds ridiculous, but it’s true. There are alot of annoying commercials though, like those for erectile dysfunction, herpes, or allergies. I just don’t get them because they show all these people who are running through fields of flowers acting like life is grand while there’s a voice over going over all the possible side effects like “increased risk of stroke, diabetes, and even death”. Nice.. I’m sorry but I’d rather have my allergies or (if I had a penis) my erectile problems, and hell I’d even rather have herpes than increased risk of stroke and/or possible death. Seriously wtf?

And I know this wasn’t asked but my favorite commercials are the Orbit commercials. “Dirty Mouth? Clean it up!”, and the comcast commercials with “The Slowskys”. Those funny little turtles. They are so freakin funny!

The chocolates finally came, and just in time for full-blown PMS, too. LOL. Now my only problem is that they look so good that I don’t want to eat them. I mean I do, but I don’t. I don’t know if that makes sense. Maybe to other OCD’ers it does, hah. Anyway without any further ado, I present to you the best chocolates ever.

Do you see how pretty? It makes me not want to eat them because I don’t want to mess up the box. God I’m a weirdo. LOL

And that my friends, is what you get for $75.00 from Godiva. Chris loves me.

The funny thing is, I’m here blogging, going on and on about chocolates.. and Chris is talking to me about Subway, asking me if I wanna look like Jared. Wtf. LOL. I’ve never been a big fan of Subway, but Chris just showed me their new Philly Cheesesteak Sub. I’m so there.

Anyway, sorry for all this chocolate and food talk. I’ve gained 5 lbs just writing this post. Be back later, buying a treadmill.

P.S. Thank you for the Godiva chocolates babe. I love you!

I don’t know what’s going on with me lately, but I can’t seem to sleep for more than a couple of hours at a time, even when I feel exhausted. I slept for about 2 hours this morning and now I’m wide awake. I hope this doesn’t keep up. It’s starting to piss me off. I wonder if this has anything to do with me PMS’ing? Hmph.

I’ve also been having pretty bad OCD lately. That, too, is pissing me off. If any of you actually suffer from OCD, you know what I’m talking about. Lately mine has been with organization. It’s starting to get out of hand and I am going to have to find some way to stop because that also might be part of the insomnia.

Chris and I have been doing well, except for a few minor rough spots here n there. We don’t fight nearly as badly or as much as we used to, and even if sometimes we get exasperated with each other we still seem to work it out before we go to sleep. That’s a good thing, though, because I don’t like going to bed mad at him or with him mad at me. I guess the problem is mostly that the hurt is still there.. for both of us. But we are both trying. He’s got alot of problems, and Lord knows I do, so it is kind of tough but we always work it out.

Anyway, I think I’m gonna go put on a pot of coffee and try to read this book Sybil I have tried 3 times to start it and failed each time because the freaking OCD was taking over. Grrrrr!!!!!

By the way, go check out my friend Cetta’s blog. This is her first time to own a website/blog, so go show her some love!

Okay, I’m freaking impatient. I am patiently waiting for my Godiva chocolates to arrive, but it doesn’t even look like they’ve even shipped yet. Grr. I’m so PMS’ing and chocolates would be so WONDERFUL right now! LOL. As I mentioned in a previous post, Chris ordered them because the ones he’d originally ordered from this other place were very sucky.

Anyways, some of the books Chris bought me off Amazon.com arrived yesterday. I got Sybil! I’ve seen the movie but I’ve never read the book and I’ve always wanted to. I also got a book by the lady who wrote the traveling pants books. It’s called The Last Summer, I think. I’d go check but I’m simply too lazy. He also bought me a couple of books off of eBay, but they haven’t arrived yet.

The box arrived from HP yesterday for me to ship my laptop in. It needs to be repaired. My little heathen pulled the ALT key off and it won’t go back on. I tried but it’s broken. Thank goodness for the warranty. I’m kind of annoyed about the whole situation though, because I use my laptop everyday. I really hope they get it back to me quickly.

Also, go join the fan site that Julie made for me if you love me or like me.. or hell, even if you don’t like me.

I am saddened to say that one of my all-time favorite comedians, George Carlin, died Sunday June 22, 2008 at 5:55pm. The first time I ever actually heard of George Carlin I was a child, and saw him on television doing his routine. My mom wasn’t really paying attention to what was on, but even though he was kind of gross and a little obscene, he was hilarious. From that day on, I was a fan.

Rest In Peace
