   I am a nice shade of really pissed off right now. I have been cleaning all day today, the cable guy never showed, not to count that my friend wanted to use the computer to apply at some store and then spent the last two and a half hours on messenger, I have six loads of laundry to do, still more dishes to do because I can't have them all clean at once for some reason, and whiney kids to deal with. I finally had to kick everyone out. My house is not a fucking hang out. If you are here and don't live here, go the fuck home.
Sorry to put that upon you all, it has been building all day long today and I had to get it out somehow before I exploded on either one of the kids or Blas.

How are you all this partly cloudy morning?? I am doing farily well, even though Blas and Jeremy went to change out my radio in my car after adding an amp for mids and highs, but when we got to the shop this morning to finish the job, their appointment was already there. Which was very odd, because these people usually cancel or don't show up...So I am riding around with no radio so I get to sing to myself :) hehe
I figured out the router I need finally. They had them where I got the router that doesn't like my compy, but it is about $20 more. It is a Belkin, and I knew that would work the moment I saw it, but I was trying to be a bit thrifty since it was Blas's money I was spending on it and not my own. So he said when he gets paid again he will take the other one back so I can get what I want. I love my boyfriend when he agrees with me, lol.
Am I the only one that uses a Mac? My boyfriend is convinced that me and the guy that convinced me to get one are the only ones who use these beautiful machines. So now I have been pointing ever Apple computer in commercials we see on tv.
Now I need to finish off cleaning out my closet. I am going to sell a bunch of it on ebay, I'll post links when I get them up and ready for sale!

I'm out!

My modem has been on the fritz so I must make this quick. I bought a router for my DSL and it didn't work on my mac. Now I am angry, lol.
Other than that, things have been good. Oh, and it has been hot as hell. ::shakes fist at Florida sun::
Time for breakfast a few hours late because of a semi family emergency (that turned out to be something really dumb and not an emergency at all).
Laters all!

Today has been another fairly successful day, even though it is before noon, lol. I just dropped three job applications, so hopefully I'll hear back from someone really soon. I would like to find a job other than Walmart if I can help it. Blas and I went last night and the thought of applying there made me sick to my stomach to the point I almost vomited. So he told me I didn't have to do it if I didn't want to. So I went to Blockbuster and Movie Gallery (so I don't have to pay to rent movies, are't I sneaky!) and Walgreens. I love that store. There are always the goofiest things in there on the isle set aside for the tourists. Either way, I am going to wait a few weeks to see what happens, and if nothing happens I'll just choke on my pride, actually, dry heave on my pride a little bit, and then go back to walmart. Not really my ideal, but you have to do what you have to do. No one is going to take care of me but me, so I may as well get over it and do things I don't want to.
I am proud of myself though. I have been putting off job hunting for a while now!
When Blas and I were in walmart last night, we looked at this cool router thingie for the modem. It has four jacks to network four computers with the ethernet cords, as well as a wireless thing. So i can go online anywhere in the house!! I would love to be able to sit in my big over-stuffed chair in the living room, surfing the net while watching Good Eats on the food network with my mom. Yes, we are addicted to Alton Brown. They took off Jamie Oliver, so I had to find a new addiction, and Emeril just wasn't it, hehe. I know they have a networking thing for printers and such too, I just don't know if they have the wireless thing. I want a printer so when I find stuff online that I dont' want to save on the computer, I can just print it. I am just worried about the whole Apple thing. I am the only one in the house running a stylish but powerful mac, everyone else is running windows. Hell, the only other person I know with a mac is the guy that pretty much sealed the deal with me buying this beautiful little piece of machienery. Yes, I love my computer that much, lol. She's pretty :) Ooh! and blas got the cord for the digital camera when we were at the store last night so I can take pictures of me and my car to show you all! I just have to remember how to reduce the size of the picture using paint. I am not sure if this computer will recognize my stone age digital camera, so I am stuck using windows for the time being for that. Even though macs have a better program for photo editing. I'll figure things out eventually!
It's time for lunch. I am starving. Now to find something in the freezer for me to eat!
I'll post some pictures later, hopefully :). I am a camera bug, lol.

Well, I haven't gotten much done today (considering it is only just after 9 AM here), but I did get a lot done last night to make my day flow a lot quicker. I cleaned off my other desk last night so I have a little desk for the lap top around the corner from this desk. Now Blas and I don't have to fight for the desk, just the internet connection. So I need to find a way to make it so we can both use the modem at the same time. It is just a DSL modem, I know there is a way we can both use it at the same time. I'll just ahve to email my old computer teacher and see if he'll tell me how to do it.
I have four loads of laundry to do too, not counting the kids clothes that need to be washed too. Ugh. I am the only one who does laundry around here and I am getting tired of it! I would boycot, but I have to wear clothes too.
I think I will play some Dragon Quest in between doing laundry. Damn, I have to do dishes too. Who in their right mind thought that all of the household stuff is a woman's job?? because I want to hurt them. Bad. Men should do stuff too. And I can quarantee that when I have a job of my own I will still be taking care of all of this stuff by myself after I get off work and on my days off. It just isn't fair, lol. But I guess if I want to continue to live in a nice home and be able to pay my bills I have to be their butt-monkey and take care of their problems because I am a woman. Just because I don't have a penis doesn't make me a maid! Whatever though. I'll get my job going, start putting my money back into my stocks and such, pay my bills, and take are of my house. If my mother could work two jobs just to keep us above water after my dad left, I guess I can work one and keep up the house. Doesn't mean I am going to like it, especially when I have a boyfriend and a roomie that only really clean when it either really needs to be done or I jump them about it. It could always be worse though. I could be living out of my car again with all of my possessions stuffed in two duffel bags and a box.
Time to kick this laundry out of the way. Next time, Blas gets to do it :) lol

I am bored out of my skull right now. I barely slept last night because I had an asthma attack right before bed and my boyfriend made me take a breathing treatment in addition to my normal meds, which are all full of ephedra. So I was up all night semi hyper, lol.
I have been playing Dragon Quest VIII like mad lately. In the past three or four days I have added almsot 20 hours to my game. The map system in that game sucks.
Nothing else to say right now. Time for a quick cat nap and then i might be more chattty!!

Thanks for all of the comments on the picture :) I have always been the ugly duckling of the family, lol. Too bad you couldn't see how bad the sun burn was in that shot! If I get the wild hair to post the one of me, blas, and Mrs. Gates it is really apparent.
I don't really have anything to say today. I'll have to visit sites to catch up!

Laters!

Just a quick post. I am still in pain, but it will pass.
Here is one of the pics of me in Daytona, with all of the trophies that Team Playtime won. Of course, I am the only girl in the picture, the guy next to me is my roomie Jeremy, next to him is Preston, and the far right is my boyfriend Blas. Yay!

This is the only one I think is good. I don't like my smile so I left those out, lol. If you want to see those, message me and I'll send those. I look like a tard when I smile, hehe.
OK, time for bed. I just got throught watching Memoirs of a Geisha (great movie, btw) and I am really sleepy. Or it could be the tylenol 3, I dunno.

Night all!

Hi all!
I do feel a little bit better today. My eventually sister in law gave me something for the pain yesterday to take along with my antibiotics. I haven't taken any pain meds since last night, so it hurts a little bit, but not as bad as it could. The tooth doesn't hurt, just the gums because they are a touch swolen so it hurts to move my jaw or make any sort of expression. So this is how it feels to have botox injections, lol. "I am so happy but I cannot express it!!"
For some reason yesterday afternoon after I took my meds I got this wild hair to clean. Did all of the laundry,the dishes, even gave the cat a bath (she was yucky). I wish I could tap into that energy fountain from yesterday so I could do more today. Blas said George had someting for my car but I didn't get it. Or he forgot it at the shop. I think it is my green lights I wanted. So I might clean my car a little bit so the green lights won't show all of the dirt and salt left over on my car from last weekend.
It may sound insane, but I have had my car since I was 16 (I'm 21 now) and I am just now starting to get in head over heels for that hunk-o-junk. I have a 4-door 1998 Cavalier. She isn't a bad car, been in a few accidents and survived them all without a scratch on me or my car. I guess after winning something for my sound system I am really wanting to make my car look like an award winning car, inside and out. I've decided to swallow my pride and go back to work at walmart when my tooth is better so I can start saving my money to get a new paint job and some rims. Oh, and to tint the windows if I can find someone here to do it. It seems all of our tinting places have decided to close down. Dave at the shop can do it, but he can only do my back window in two sheets of tint instead of one like i want it. Blas is doing all of the air brush work after I get the paint job done. The only thing I am tied about is doing my dashboard and front consoles. There were cars in daytona that had the dashboard molded from fiber glass with a really shiny finish, but I am worried aobut doing that and having kids in the car to scratch it. THat is the only draw back to having to drive your show car.
My meds are kicking in and the screen is blurry. I'll post more later when I am more coherent!

Hugs,

Blech
My wisdom tooth is bugging me again and it hurts like a bitch. I may not have health insurance, but thanks to the people that do I get what I need from friends, lol. It feels like the left side of my face is just going to fall off or something. It sucks monkey butt.
So all day today I have been sitting around watching the food network (I can't eat it, so i may as well watch it on TV) and hanging out with Twizzle. He moved back from Delray or Boca, can't remember which. I think Delray. He sat around and played my guitar for a while (he rocks!) and then left to meet his ex for lunch and to see his son. I am in so much pain I don't want to do much, but the dishes have piled up and i still haven't done any laundry since we got back to daytona. I don't want to do the dishes. But it seems I live in a house where washing dishes is a woman's job. grrrr.
We've already started planning on the mods to my car, but then Blas told me this morning that I might drop categories for Daytona next year, so I am not going to have this super hot car in some shitty category because I can dominate in lower spots. The beauty of placing second in my category this year is I can drop category's and start working my way back up. I don't want to do that though. You can't play test tones in AS whatever, which is what I would drop to. I could play some DJ Blass or something, or DJ Magic Mike. Old school stuff. Ever since we got back from Daytona I have been listenign to more old school than anything. If any of you are into some real old school bass tracks, try to find anything Gucci Twins (Boom I Got Your Girlfriend kicks ass in my car) or LeTigre "We Like The Cars That Go Boom". It may seem really corny, but you have to have respect for things like that, lol.
Oh, if there are any artists who read this who would be willing to do some work for me, I need some assistance. I don't have any money to pay or anything, but the design would be on my car and probably get some publicity. If I do it just right, I am hoping to get my car sponsored by Mmats Pro Audio. Just message me and I'll let you know the details. it is just a basic design for a paint job for my car, something that will get noticed next year at daytona, as well as anywhere I go. It is my every day driving car.

I'm gone, laters all!
