God Hates You, Westboro Baptists

I heard some news this morning that has been angering me all day long. I heard that that lame-ass Westboro "Baptist" Church group who hates gays and pickets the funerals of soldiers is going to picket at Heath Ledger's funeral. Why? Because he supposedly "promoted" homosexuality by portraying a gay cowboy in Brokeback Mountain.

People like these assholes make me ashamed to be a human being. What kind of inhuman, unfeeling person would picket at a person's funeral??? (you would think that a group of hatemongers like them would be celebrating a funeral, not picketing.) That is just not right. It is so not right on soooo many levels. Who gave them a right to judge people? Don't they remember God's decree of "Judge not, less ye be judged?" Why don't you see them picketing at funerals of people who have played serial killers and monsters in movies? Shouldn't they be doing that too? I mean, if you are gonna picket one thing, you gotta picket it all. You have to be consistent (haha). None of it makes any sense whatsoever. They say they believe in God. They call themselves "Baptists." Assholes would be a better name for them. Yeah. The Church of Inbred White Trash Ignorant Assholes. Has a nice ring to it, don't ya think?

They have a website. You wanna know the website's address? It is godhatesfags.com. Yeah. That's really what it is. I checked it out. You wanna know what the "welcome" message says on the website? It says "welcome depraved sons and daughters of Adam." You wanna know what one of their little logos is? It is an upside down US flag. They apparently hate West Virginia, Sweden, Mexico, and a whole bunch of other places. They hate the US (well then move the fuck out of here, you fuckers!) They have signs that say, "God Hates You," and "God Hates Fag Enablers." I have many friends who are gay. God MUST hate me. Yeah right. How a group of people can be so intolerant and ignorant is beyond me. It angers me that these people think they have the right to go around picketing at people's funerals. Sure. We have a thing in this country called Freedom of Speech. But what about common decency? Whatever happened to respect?

I looked at their website, and threw up in my mouth a little when I read their "blog" about Heath Ledger's death. I wanted to leave them a little hateful comment, but I guess they don't allow comments. Cowards!

All I can hope is that one day when this world is over and they have to stand before God and be judged, that God throws them down into the pit of hell and they have to spend all eternity being anally raped by Satan.

Now that would be justice.

Went to see Cloverfield today...

Freakin' awesome movie. Starts off slow and then BOOM!

Disaster.....destruction....carnage. I loved the movie. My mom and bro didn't seem too impressed, but that's too bad for them. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a real nailbiter. I literally was biting my nails - lol. It was the first movie I had seen in the theatre in a long, long time. And what a trip it was.

I'm not going crazy...I'm not going crazy...I'm not!

I'm not going crazy....Somehow, I feel like if I keep telling myself that I am not going crazy, then everything will be ok. But, oh good lord, I seriously feel like I am going insane!!!!!!

My head....oh my head. I really just want a head transplant. Do they do those yet??

This dizzy/empty/crazy head feeling I have is going to lead me to a loony bin. In the morning, I am ok. The "weird head" feeling is not so bad. But by midday, I just can't take it anymore! UGH! I have had this feeling for like a month and it seems to have gotten worse. What the hell is wrong with me??????????

For those people who have never experienced "weird head" (for lack of a better description), consider yourselves lucky bastards. Cuz this shit is driving me crazier than Britney Spears at a Cheetos convention. I have been reading up on it on-line, and I am just SO glad that there are other people out there too who have had this. At least it is not just me.

This is what it feels like: When I look left or right, it feels like my eyes are moving faster than my brain. It is not so bad when I look up or down. It is this strange, pulsating feeling in my head that also affects my eyes and ears. I cannot tolerate loud noises. When someone is talking really loud next to me, my ears seem to shut off and I feel that strange pulsating feeling in my ears, too. Like a rush almost. But definitely not a good rush! I am almost always dizzy or feel lightheaded. I will be sitting at work looking at the computer, doing my work, and when I look away, I feel like the room is spinning. Like vertigo almost.

Maybe it has something to do with my ears, since an ear injury, infection or disease can really mess with your equillibrium. (and lord knows I am already clumsy enough as it is!!) Of course, one website says this dizziness can also be caused by an autoimmune disease....and I have one (or two - depending on which friggin doctor you talk to) of those. I know it's from none of my medications, cuz I have been taking the same stuff for a long time now.

All I know, is that this "weird head" thing I have is literally driving me crazy. I can't concentrate. I can't sleep. I have disturbing dreams. I get these weird "brain fogs" where I can't remember people's names or simple stuff like that. So, if I don't remember your name right away, I am not being rude. Honest. I just can't think straight!

One thing is for sure...if this shit does not go away soon, I am going to go insane.

It literally feels like this room is located on top of the ocean. I feel like I am on a boat - LOL!!!

It is funny, and it's not. I have a dr appt next month. But I may have to reschedule it sooner if this doesn't go away. I don't know how much longer I can put up with this.

And oh yeah. I am also going thru one of the worst RA flare-ups I have had in a long while. Pain really sucks. And pain and dizziness really sucks big hairy donkey balls (you can thank me for that lovely visual if you want ). My legs are stiff all day long. I walk like I am 80 years old. Every joint in my body is just a mess of pain. My skin even hurts to touch. My left knee is hurting me again. It felt pretty good last year after the cortisone shot. But I think the shot has worn off now -lol. To make a long story short, I am a mess - lol.

I know this was a pretty depressing post, but I had to get it out. Maybe I am secretly hoping someone will comment saying, "yeah. I had that weird head thing too and it went away and never came back."

Freakin' a - I am going to bed and TRY my best to sleep for more than 2 hours without waking up.

And please......no more dreams about falling off of cliffs or jumping into pools of boiling lava. For heaven's sake...please brain, please be nice to me tonite. lol

Me , cheesy? no way! lol

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!

Just waiting around til my friend calls me to come pick her up from the bar - lol. I am the DD, but I didn't go out. I was just not up to it. I am still getting over this cold, and frankly, I don't want it to come back! But I do resolve to go out next year to ring in the New Year.

That is my only resolution. I don't normally do resolutions, but what the heck. It can't hurt

I have to go back to my mess of a living room. I am in the middle of "project organization." I am organizing my craft supplies and computer supplies. But to organize, you must first make a mess. And I sure have succeeded in that step - hehe.

Happy 2008!!!



--- someday I may even get around to revamping my blog template...but not tonite ;)

Merry Sick-Mas

Once again, I am sick for Christmas. How did Santa know I wanted a cold for Christmas?! So while you are all enjoying your turkey or ham and opening presents, think of me. I will be sneezing and coughing and shivering under blankets and eating soup for dinner - lol.

Anyway, I want to wish everyone a very merry (and, hopefully, sick-free) Christmas. Be safe out there! You know the streets are full of crazy drivers!! Don't drink too much egg nog or eat too much (or any) fruitcake.

By the way, A Christmas Story is on tv....if you miss it, don't worry. It will be running for a full 24 hours on TBS. If you haven't seen it yet (and if you haven't, what planet have you been living on????), watch it. It is hilarious!!!!!!



May your days be merry and bright. Keep your tongues off frozen flagpoles, no matter if someone triple-dog dares you to! And for heaven's sake, don't shoot your eye out!!!!


Merry Christmas!!!!

I'm a nerd...and I'm pretty proud of it

'Tis The Season

am very work-stressed right now. They just dumped something like 60 cases on me...90% of which are Spanish-speaking, and the most Spanish I speak is besame culo....kiss my ass. Yeah. 'Tis the season to be stressed!

So I apologize, in advance, if I come across as rude or asshole-ish to anyone.

This advance apology is good until after I am done with these cases , which may be a while .... hehe

Oh...one thing that made me laugh today is hearing that Britney Spears's lil sister, who is 16, is pregnant.

That's what happens when you have this whack-job



for a sister.

Thanks Spears family, for making me feel better about myself.

HO HO HO

Home for the holidaze

I am all done with Christmas shopping. I even went to the post office on Friday to mail Christmas packages to my far away friends. Ugh. The line wasn't too long at the post office, but this one lady was just asking question after question. I was holding packages in my hands and just praying for her to leave before I dropped the presents. Luckily, I was able to hold on to em. Tomorrow, I am mailing out all my Christmas cards. After that is done, I will be all done with Christmas stuff :)

I thought the post office took a long time, but Kinko's was even worse. I went to make color copies and (of course) only 1 color copier was working. Grrrr. So, about 25 minutes later, I left with my 10 copies. Sheesh.

Anyway, not much else has been happening. It is cold. I hate going outside in the morning to go to work. I hate that it is Sunday. I am just so full of hate lately! lol. I got soooo sick on Monday. I ate some eggs from the cafeteria that tasted funny and about an hour later, my tummy was hurting and I got so sick and I went home early. I am not eating cafeteria eggs anymore!!!!!

I have a mess in my apartment. Between the Christmas craft-fest and present wrapping, it looks like Michael's exploded in here. Now, I have to try to find space to put everything away. I think that might take a while

Here are some pics of my messy room...






Punkin and Cuddles are now officially cage-mates. I put them together on Friday in a "neutral" zone to see how they would react to each other. Of course, there was some rumblings and pouting, but there was no fighting, so that was a good sign. There is still some rumbling in their house, but that is just the 2 of them trying to be each other's boss. It really is quite funny to see the 2 of them playing follow the leader. They are so entertaining - lol.

Here is a more recent pic of Cuddles...



She is just so cute!!!

I am so gosh-darned tired tonite. I realy don't wanna work tomorrow.

Stupid Things I Did Today

Just to show everyone how much of a dork I really am, today after I had shut down my computer and was getting ready to leave work, I went to turn off the light above my computer and turned on the computer instead.

And this morning as I was leaving for work, I "found" my sunglasses on the 3rd peg on my key/mail holder, exactly where they had been hanging since Saturday. I went to work on Monday thinking I had lost them, because they are usually hanging on the 1st peg along with my keys. Had I looked a little to the right, I would have seen them. I really need to start seeing the big picture.

Not only am I a dork, I am a blind dork!

Long time, no blog

Ok, so I know it's been a while since I have blogged, but for a while my internet connection sucked! The Bright House guy came out and replaced my modem, so I am back in business

I had a super busy weekend. I went Christmas shopping on Friday...pretty much all day. Went to Target, Borders, the Gold Crown store, PetCo, Barnes and Nobles...everywhere! But I got pretty much all of it done that day. Then I came home and did some online shopping. Then all evening I spent hot gluing ornaments together. Big fun - hehe. By the time I was done, it was near midnight and I was tired! But I stayed up and watched some tv, and by the time I went to bed, it was almost 3 am.

Saturday, oh my lord! I went to Michaels because I had forgotten to buy more glue sticks (DUH!). Big mistake. It was hella busy, and just dealing with the parking lot was enough to raise my blood pressure sky high. By the time I found a place to park, I was fuming mad! lol. People just don't know how to friggin' drive! But I got what I went there for and went to a few more places and then went home.

Then, the guinea pig cage saga began. About 2 weeks ago, I had ordered this plastic bottom to make a cage out of for my lil Punkin, since she needed a bigger house. Well, apparently the seller got the address wrong, because when I called UPS to check on the package status, it said it had been delivered...to someone named Scott. Well, it turns out the seller put the wrong apartment number on the box. The UPS lady told me what apt it went to, so I went to that apartment to see if the dude was home.

Now, there is this dude in my apartment complex, who, like the building, is, well , complex. He can be seen around the building walking and talking to himself. Well, it is more like cussing to himself. I have heard him on several occasions telling himself that he is gonna "kill em all." (who "em all" is, I am not sure. I just hope I am not one of them - hehe). Well I often refer to him as my "scary neighbor." When I was walking to the door of the dude who got my package's apartment, I was just praying it wasn't the scary neighbor. It was. Yikes. But he gave the package to me after I told him who I was and what had happened. Turns out scary neighbor wasn't so scary after all.

Well putting the damned cage together wasn't so hard. It was just labor intensive - lol. I had to move all the furniture and stuff on the right side of the living room to the left side and vice versa. It took a while - lol. The I had to put the cage together, which was a source of pain for me, since I pinched my damned fingers between the wire panels on several occasions. But, all in all, it wasn't so bad, and Punkin is much happier now in her deluxe condo This is how it looks...



It has a loft and a ramp (which I made - hehe) and everything. Pretty nice digs, huh?

Well, after I built the cage and stuff, Alicia, Alana and I went out to Don Perico's and had some dinner. I was starvin' by that time, and my head was pounding. But the food was yummy. I even had some left over for lunch the next day.

Well, sometime during the night, Peanut, one of my hamsters, managed to become an escape artist and got out of his cage. I noticed he was missing on Sunday morning, and I, once again, had to move furniture around in an effort to find the little critter. After ruling out my bedroom, the bathroom and most all of the furniture in the living room, I figured he was either 1) under the fridge, or 2) under my entertainment center...neifher of which I even attempted to move (that would have resulted in another strained back muscle....which I had already managed to do earlier in the week... or perhaps broken bones - lol).

I set out some food in the middle of the living room with a trail of it leading up the cage door, hoping he would follow it into the cage. Well, around 10:30 pm, I walked out to the living room to get some paper and low and behold, there was little Peanut, munching away on some carrots I had left out for him. I put him back in his cage and made sure it was escape proof this time. I don't want to move any more damned furniture!!!!!!!!

Today after work, I went by Petco to get a little bed for the mini monsters, Flip and Truffle (the dwarf hamsters), and I saw the cutest guinea pig. I have been meaning to get a friend for Punkin, since they are social critters and like the company of another piggy, so I bought her and took her home. Her name is Cuddles, and here she is....







She is super sweet and also super shy. But she will be a good playmate for Punkin, who I am sure is lonely. I have to keep her isolated for a few weeks, just to make sure she doesn't get sick or anything. So right now, she is occupying Punkin's old house.

Oh, this is Flip, one of the dwarf hamsters...



(Truffle looks just like him - lol)

And here is Pretzel...



I got him after Lil Oreo died. He is a cutie and is just as sweet as Peanut.

Well, that is all I have to report for now - lol.

My new little buddy

Well, after Lil Oreo died, I had to get another little buddy. I was originally gonna get another hamster, but after a trip to PetCo, I saw the cutest little Guinea Pig ever. She HAD to come home with me. Just take a look at her cute lil face...



Her name is Punkin. The name suits her well. She had the cutest little mohawk "hairdo" when I bought her, and she looked like a punk rocker - lol. She is so shy right now, but I am sure she will warm up to me soon. It took a while for dear old Lil Oreo and Peanut to get over their shyness, and now, Peanut is so friendly and sweet. So was Lil Oreo. But she sure had a feisty side to her - lol.

Well, aside from the pet stuff, not much else is happening. This time change is sure crazy though. It feels so much later than 7:20. And I can't believe it is already November! It is almost Christmas. Damn! I have my supervisor test on Wednesday. We'll see how that goes - lol.

It was a sad day...

My little buddy, Lil Oreo passed on to the great exercise wheel in the sky yesterday. She was nearly 3 years old, which is very old for a hamster. (the average life span of a hamster is 2 years). She led a long, happy hamster life. Rest in peace, little buddy. Rest in peace.







Lil Oreo - October 27, 2007

I seriously have the worst luck!

Today sucked. It just sucked! First of all, it is Monday, and that is bad enough. It is freakin' cold at work, so I was wearing my jacket all day long. Then, the new meds the doctor put me on made me soooo sleepy that I skipped lunch to take a nap at my desk. And now I have cotton mouth on top of it. Damned medicine!

Well, after work, I went outside to my car and it is just nasty looking...and windy as all hell. Driving home was pretty awful with all the leaves and dust kicking up in my windshield. Got to my folks' house ok. But about a half an hour later, my bro walks in and says "What happened to your license plate?" I was like, "huh?" He said it was missing. GRRRR! Some ass munch stole my frickin' license plate...the whole damned thing....holder and all. So I had to call the police and make a report. They said they would contact me within the next 48 hours and then I can go to the DMV and get replacement plates. Of course, I have to PAY for those, plus a new registration card (cuz now I will have new plates) and registration stickers. I am so mad I could spit! I know it happened at work, because the plate was on my car this morning when I left for work. I swear, there are assholes everywhere!

Well, we had quite a thunder-and-lightning show tonite. It was freakin' awesome! My mom, of course, hated it. I don't think the people who are without electricity right now thought it was so awesome though. But I thought it rocked! Plus, we need rain! With all the wildfires down south, some more rain would be more than welcome. I guess my cousin is working down there helping to put out the fires. My aunt said he told her that he had never seen flames that high before. Crazy, I tell you.

Well, I am still pissed about my license plate. I had just recently memorized the damned thing, and now I am gonna have to memorize another one. I just hope I don't get pulled over for not having one.

But knowing my luck (or lack thereof), I will.
