I am suffering a paradox here. When it comes to my work, I am a champion. One of the hardest workers on my crew. I get things done and always feel complete at the end of the day... at least until I get home. When it comes to my personal life, I am a lazy bum! I have a huge list of things to do, I know I need to do them... and yet, I just sit here waiting... waiting for what, I don't know!

Laundry needs to be done today. Then I need to pack it for my upcoming work trip that starts tomarrow. Why am I putting it off? Why did I even come here to vent when it would not require a whole lot more energy and time to simply get the work done?

I'm hosting a few friends tonight. BBQ. It's about to be a disaster. I should get to work on preparing it... maybe lessen the impact of the disaster...

My room is a mess. I can't even see my floor... Most of this junk could just go... But it's not going to happen anytime soon... When it finally does, I'll probably find a whole host of insects hidding under the various assortment of crap I've somehow collected in only six months. I think it might actually stink in here... I can't tell anymore!!!

A girlfriend presents an entirely new challenge that I simply am not prepared to face...

I just want to go to work... Life is simpler and far, far less stressful there...

:bighug: I don't get headaches like you, but I sympathize with waking up with a raging headache. :( That was me most of the day yesterday. I was feeling crampy too... Two Excedrin and two Advils within like 3 hours of each other (I never do that). And yet, I STILL felt crappy.

I really hope your headache goes away soon!
Aw, thank you, Allison. :hug: I still have the headache. I have just been sorta bed-ridden today watching three movies ("In America," "Failure to Launch," and now "Step Sister from Planet Weird"). I kept napping and everything, but I think that's not making things better for me. :mad:

Here I am, nearly eight hours later, and now I am barely starving for food. I'm on my way to reheat a pork chop and some garlic mashed potatoes. I hesitated eating earlier because I was feeling nauseous and threw up out of stomach nerves (shortly after I posted my headache message). But, I need to eat as well. *sigh*

Oh, well.... Maybe I should just get out of the house and walk around the mall and get an Auntie Anne's homemade pretzel. Mmmmm.... Just getting out might help some too. I have just been indoors all day, and it's already 1:44 p.m.

People always seem eager in the beginning and then slow down later until they just quietly vanish. That's what I noticed about these two people as well. *sigh* It is getting much more difficult to befriend people. How coincidental this always happen with people I really want to befriend. :(

This person sounds like a complete and utter idiot; ignore this bitch (she sounds like she has some issues); and do not allow (this TROLL) to get you down..you are better than that (and you are nice too)...tell her to kiss off!

Thanks for your kind words, Rock Chic. :) I feel better after complaining about her in this thread, after receiving you comments. :) I'd dearly love to be rude to her back, but I don't want to bring myself down to her level.

Besides, whenever she does write a nasty comment, there are plenty of nice people (like you) to turn to. The majority of people on the Internet are really nice; it's just a shame that sometimes you come across some horrid people.

Yes, majority of people on the internet are (NICE), but, of course, you are always going to run into some that are not (and that is life); my best advice is to completely ignore her (and pretend that she does not exist); and you are very welcome, and thank you, too for the sweet compliment..and PLEASE, call me Tara:wave:

Okay, the person I complained about earlier (who's being nasty to me on another website) is continuing to be a complete b-i-t-c-h. (I'm sorry for using that term, but I can't think of any other way to describe it.)

Today, she said that she'd like to track me down and slaughter my family. And, according to her, the fact that I've never seen a Star Wars movie is proof that I'm a troll because, according to her, there isn't a single person in the world who hasn't seen any of the Star Wars movies.

:rofl: Oh my god...that gal is the troll, not you. She needs a good, hard smack in the back of her head. :mad: It should be a hard enough smack to give her amnesia. But, I digress.

Add me to the list of people who has never seen a Star Wars movie. Actually, that's kind of a lie... I saw one in theaters back in 1997, but it was HORRIDLY BORING and I fell asleep halfway through. The rest, I've never seen. I don't care for Star Wars at all, and there are many people here who don't care about Star Wars at all, either. That girl really needs to pull her head out of her ass.

I'm sorry you have to deal with such an *******. Like Tara said, just ignore her. She'll get bored and move on to somebody else. :)

It's not the only reason she's called me a troll. Basically, she started this thread on one of the boards on the forum, in which she explained that she'd re-registered on a forum that she'd been banned from, and outlined her plans to do some horrible things on that forum, as revenge. I posted in that thread in an attempt to tell her that her actions were wrong and to try to persuade her not to do anything.

Anyway, some people on the forum she was banned from found her thread and found out what she was planning, so she's unable to go through with her plans. However, she still seemed to believe that what she was planning was right, and I thought if I could become friendly with her, I could perhaps convince her that she was wrong to plan those kind of things, and hopefully make her change - so I sent her several PMs for a couple of days, in an attempt to get to know her. Unfortunately, she didn't trust me at all, she thinks the purpose of my PMs was to snoop and dig up information on her, and that's part of the reason she thinks I'm a troll.

I happened to mention my interest in mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia, in a thread I started (it was reading the book A Beautiful Mind that got me interested; I'm very sympathetic with those who have them) and she jumped all over me for mentioning schizophrenia - she accused me of taking an underhanded jab at her by mentioning it. I assured her that that was not what I was doing, but I doubt she believes me.

Well, she sounds like she suffers from schizophrenia; and these people never change, if this is the case, I can only suggest is to keep her in your thoughts, and do not take what she says (literally). I know of several people that have schizophrenia; and they do live normal lives, if they take their medication...

I haven't got the impression that she has schizophrenia, but it's possible that she could have, though. If she does, then of course, my sympathies are with her, but she generally comes across as just a mean-spirited person in her posts. Her posts can be quite rational...I think it's possible she may have some problems, but I'm not sure it's schizophrenia. I would hope it's not, anyway.

Then she is just that a (mean spirited person) ususally when someone is a jerk towards others is a reflection on (HOW) others threat them; or she is basically just an very unhappy inidividual, because people that are happy with their lives, generally do not go out of their ways to be arseholes!!!

It can't be the cable company because my cable modem is working fine, but I looked on my TV's menu and see no cable setting. For some reason, my TV (or cable?) got set to broadcast TV. Half the channels aren't showing up!!! I'm losing patience NOW! I need my Nick-at-Nite/TV Land! UGH!! *whines and pouts like a spoiled two-year-old* :mad: pissed:

I'm quite sad. I noticed yesterday evening I wasn't able to watch any cable channels beyond 28. I kept fiddling with the cable connections, the menu setup on my TV remote, etc, etc. I was getting frustrated that I just gave up last night. I figured maybe there was some temporary outtage, but it was the same thing this morning. I just figured it was some sort of cable outtage or something.

I decided to call my apartment complex asking if anyone else has complained about this. The woman told me no one else has complained. She said the apartment complex only has free basic cable, but I told her I was always able to watch all the non-digital cable channels. You know, Nick-at-Nite, TV Land, ABC Family, Disney, E!, Discovery, etc. All the good channels I really like! Then she suggested I call Comcast (http://www.comcast.com/) (our cable company) to find out if they reduced the number or what.

This had me go nuts!!! My theory is that she's right. Did they reduce the number or down-grade us? Ohhhhh.... This is going to majorily suck if this is true. I am climbing up the walls because all my channels are gone then. I mean, the apartment is giving us some free cable, but I really think this new downgrade decision just stinks!

I haven't called the cable company yet because I had another theory - what if they didn't even realize I was getting the basic plus package instead of the basic package? If that was the case, then I was getting it free. I don't know if it was just my apartment or everyone's apartments. I was thinking maybe there was a temporary cable outage. I sorta wanted to wait for a while before calling them in case this is true. I don't know what to do. *cries*

This sucks because it feels like things keep disappearing/changing so much in my life. I feel helpless now! :crying:

my boyfriend just keeps hurting me (and it's not his fault that he doesn't realize it just for the record) and i've been desperately trying to talk to him about it since yesterday but there's always something stopping me from doing so. he's not online, his cell phone is off, i don't know the address or directions to his house (even though i've been there), when i try to talk to him at school the privacy is always interfered with. it's ridiculous.

The person I've been having a problem with on another message board did something nasty to one of my onlines friends yesterday. She went to a forum that he posts on and publicised some PMs he sent her on the other message board, and humiliated him. I'm pretty sure the only reason she did it was out of spite, too.

He's a really nice guy, and I'm very annoyed that this has happened. I had foreknowledge that she was going to do something like that, as she announced her plans in a thread I created on the board, and today she made a post announcing what she had done. I tried and tried to persuade her not to do it, but there was just no getting through to her. And I feel bad about this, because the guy she did this to has been a good online friend of mine for a long time.

I am so sorry that you and your friends are going through this; some people are just creeps, and would do anything to get attention!

Thanks, Tara. :) I'm hoping that now she's carried out her nefarious plan that this will all blow over. I just hope she hasn't got any more horrible plots up her sleeve.

Thankfully, my friend is taking it in his stride. He's a pretty laid-back guy. And I feel guilty because it's partly my fault that she did this to him. To give the full story, I stupidly posted a link to a forum that my friend and I both post on, and it was from seeing a thread there, and reading some of his posts, that she decided to post the PMs he sent her on the other forum that he posts on regularly (which he originally sent to her on a third forum; the one that she's recently been nasty to me on.)

As soon as I found out what she was planning, I sent him a PM, warning him that something was going to happen. I expected him to be really angry with me (since it was kind of my fault that she made the decision to post those PMs) but he was very nice about it.

Michelle, yeah, that girl really has serious self-esteem issues and is treading on falling into her own hole. You remind me quite of myself by attempting to talk/rationalize with someone like her. I have done it myself in the past. It's a bit of a hopeless matter in doing so, but we seem to be the optimistic ones who make every attempt. I've even done it with friends I've argued with in the past.

By the way, I replied to your entry in LJ ;)
Thanks, Kristel. Yeah, maybe there's a reason why she hasn't responded yet. I don't know. She originally called me back in May, and she told me to call her that evening so we could talk more. I was at work when she called me. Then, I just sent her a text message yesterday. It costed me extra since I don't have text messaging service, but I really hate to just call and BS on the phone. I'd rather sit and chit-chat in person. I don't even know if she thought, "Geez, it's about time she's called me. Forget it." Or, like you said, there could be other reasons. Hmmm.... I have no other choice but to just continue waiting, I suppose. I'd hate to look clingy after all this time and visit her at her workplace (which is about two blocks from where I live) and ask if she's received my text message. :lol:

The more of you that I inspect
The more of me I see reflect
The more I try to read your lips

But when I seek out your voice
My ears are overcome with noise
You show and tell with greatest ease
Raving impossibilities

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry

And when the story takes a twist
If folds like a contortionist
Slight of hand and quick exchange
The old tricks have been rearranged

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry

The searing of the sinew
My body fights for air
The ripping of the tissue
My lungs begin to tear
Gravitys got my bones
It pulls my flesh away
The steam finally dissipates
I make out my sweaty face

Association that I choose
Game I inevitably lose
Governed by laws set up by me
Fracture its jaw to let me be

A cut-out cardboard condo maze
Filled with an insubordinate race
Irrational youths stop to stare
As music rubber hosed the air

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry again
And again and again, again

Engaged in crime I grasp my throat
Enraged my mind starts to smoke
Enforce a mental overload
Angry again, angry again, angry

I fell down the stairs because of my sister. :( We have 14 stairs, and I fell down 9 or 10 of them. I'm sore, but I will probably be hurting a lot more later and tomorrow (esp. my back). :( :( The worst part is my sister doesn't even care. All she was worried about was trying to keep herself from getting in trouble. As usual she was demanding something. She wanted to go outside, but her car Chava was by the door. She has a cow whenever he manages to get out onto the patio. She will actually scream until someone gets him back in. I had walked upstairs to put something away. She insisted that I get downstairs and hold her cat back right then. She made me hurry. It's easy to not place any blame on her, but it is her fault. Yes, we do sometimes do too much for her, but still. She needs to be held (at least somewhat) accountable for her actions. If she wasn't trying to rush me I wouldn't have fallen. She's very self-centered. She didn't apologize to me. I guess that shoudn't surprise me, but it does.
Aw, I'm sorry to hear about that. Hopefully, you didn't get too bruised or won't be too sore tomorrow.

It seems your sister likes to take advantage of situations. It's really not right, if you ask me. She is going to take that with her throughout her adulthood and will be very surprised when the world won't be as easy as she has been acting. She really needs to go to some kind of boot camp or something so she can wake up from this "help me" behavior. It's not fair to you or to your mom.

I know exactly how you feel. Experiencing it yourself or knowing someone you know who has experienced such a thing can truly be traumatizing. It seems it will take quite a while until the fear goes away. I now have somewhat of a fear of travelling through a highway because of road debris. There are just so many semi trucks and other construction vehicles that tend to leave that kind of debris around the road. It's just out there and quite difficult for the city to clean it up immediately. Then, the speed limit is usually 75mph. So unsafe. *cringes*

You know how you sometimes have "one of those days", where things don't go right? I'm having "one of those weeks." Just when I was hoping that maybe I would be feeling better by tomorrow or the next day I ended up falling again today. However, this time I didn't fall down stairs. I went to a friend's house. When I left and got into the cab to come home, the middle (normally there's a bench that goes all the way across left to right). Well, this particular one was short. It only went about 2/3 of the way across (from right to left). I got in on the left side of the cab (van) and I didn't realize the bench seat was abnormal. So when I got in I tried to sit down, but I fell and hit the floor of the cab (on my back). It really hurt. My vision is worse outside. It also made it hard because it was very sunny today. I got up and then sat down on the bench seat. The driver then said that that bench was short. I wish I had known that ahead of time. I don't normally fall multiple times in a week. I don't even fall on a weekly basis. Just occassionally, thankfully. Not this week though. :( So it will probably take longer before I feel better. I'm going to be even more sore now. I took some medicine and I'm hoping that will help.
Oh, I really hate those days where things just don't seem right. So annoying. Hope you're feeling better.

I'm sorry Mona. :( A few years ago my brother was driving and there was a rollover accident on the freeway. He saw it and he stopped and rescued the people. I'm sorry that no one was able to save your cousin.
Thanks, Jenny. Yeah, there was nothing anyone can do. It just all happened too quickly, so there was no way to help them, unfortunately. Earlier today I borrowed a studio family photo of my cousin and his immediate family from last year. I scanned in the photo. I am going to digitize as many photos of my cousin and second cousins as I can so I can add to my personal collection.

Ohhhh.... I don't understand about my latest cravings.... It seems that I've had a major craving these three days since Friday, and they have all been "not so good" cravings. It's probably something psychological behind them, but it's been bugging me.

Friday I had a craving for Chinese food at my favorite Chinese buffet restaurant only to learn that their usual food wasn't all that tasty that day. It was just one of those days, I suppose. However, I was just totally dissatisfied on spending $7 USD for it that day.

Saturday I craved a Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia bottled milkshake. They only had one of each flavor: Cherry Garcia and Chunky Monkey. I let my sister taste the Cherry Garcia, and I took the Chunky Monkey. I wasn't all that thrilled with it. I preferred the cherry/chocolate combo. Again, I was dissatisfied.

Sunday (today) I just came from watching "Click" at the cinema, and I craved buttery popcorn with some Dr. Pepper. I've now got a stomach ache from all that overdose of buttery popcorn. I can usually handle it, but I feel my stomach didn't agree with it. Oooo....

What a weekend with cravings.... :(

Plus, I am rather annoyed that I took the time to send a couple of apologetic PMs at separate times to someone on another forum because I think I hurt them a bit. I got no response. *sigh* Oh, well.... I guess what counts to me is that I actually did it, even if I didn't get at least acknowledgement. Well...c'est la vie, I suppose....

:( One week ago at this exact time, I got a message reply from someone new I wrote a message to. I was honest and said I was looking for new friends. She wrote me back saying she was as well. We wrote back and forth that evening and through Monday evening. We had things in common and both got along so well. I was happy to try and make a new friend in hopes of also hanging out in person sometime soon. She even told me she hopes to let me listen to her husband's song, and she told me she hopes to show it to me some day. I complimented her quote which was part of the chorus of his song. Then, I didn't hear from her after her third message to me. I wrote a reply, and that was it. *sigh*

Why do people seem to stop writing/slow down in writing just after three messages??? Why, oh, why... She isn't the first one. It's happened to three other local people as well. Do people take it for granted once you are in their friends list that the communication stops there, or...??? I just don't get it. *scratches head and puts on a sad face* :(

It's MY track, got it?! :mad:

I only walked three laps (one shy away from a mile) because I just was NOT in the mood of passing by my aunt S and her stupid-butt husband. I greeted my aunt M who was with them, but I just blatently ignored aunt S! I hate aunt S's lousy attitude. Months ago at an uncle's party, S went up to my sister and was full of it when she told her and me, "Remember that you can come to me whenever you want, okay?" Yeah...right... she was full of it. If that were really true, then my aunt S would have more respect and even greet my mom (her oldest sister). Instead, she ignores my mom. Loser! That's what I mean by "full of crap!"

If he can't pay rent, then he really should clean, cook, help around the house, etc to help you out.

Why should I feel so lonely?

I just want a meaningful, long-term relationship with a wonderful woman. Someone I could consider having a family with. Damnit, I'd be satisfied with just a shot at something remotely mirroring a girlfriend!
I can't listen to love songs anymore...

Why must I be ungrateful for what I have?

A girl would only bring more complications.... but I want it so bad!

Other than that, I'm in pretty damn good shape!

I know how you feel. Only I want a boyfriend instead of a girlfriend. LOL. The worst part is that I KNOW I'm not ready for that yet. I still have too many emotional issues to figure out.:(

I feel taken advantage of. :( My mother doesn't even bother asking me anymore, she just expects me to happily watch my sister all the time. I never get a break from my sister anymore except for the few hours she's in school. I have to watch her every single day when she gets home from school. Then my mother goes out to dinner with a friend at least a few times a week which leaves me here to watch my sister yet again. She also sometimes goes out on the weekends in the evenings and I have to watch my sister then also. Gosh forbid I try to have any type of life. I have to plan around my sister's arrival from school during the week. If I have to or want to go somewhere I have to go in the mornings. Because my transportation isn't exactly 'reliable' I take the chance of getting stranded somewhere esp. if I go by cab. I only have two forms of transportation which are a bus system or a cab. Having to deal with my sister practically nonstop is starting to get to me. Her behavior is so awful and no matter what I try to do my sister won't listen to me. She's very dependent on me, and my mother, for everything. We try to get her to do things herself, but that doesn't do any good. I don't know why it has to be a constant fight with my sister to do anything. She acts like she's so helpless. I insist that she do some things herself and that always has to be a fight. We can't just place her in a 'home' or something because we know that's not exactly nice to do, but it's getting so ridiculous. At some point that will probably seem like a nice idea as terrible as it sounds. I never get a moment to myself when she's here. It's constantly "Jenny do this." "Jenny do that." "Jenny I need this." "Jenny I need that." .... I almost had a meltdown yesterday because she kept making everything a fight. She knows what she is and is not allowed to have for a snack yet she still asks endlessly for things she's not allowed to have. When it's time for her to take a shower that has to always be an ordeal. I've done everything to try to get her to take a shower herself, but it just doesn't work. If I don't help her in someway she won't take a shower. Then I get in trouble by my mother because then it "seems as though I'm not helping out." Even though if my mother had to be here all the time with my sister without help she might be more understanding and not so quick to judge me. I don't know what I'm going to do when my sister has all the typical student holidays. She's going to drive me absolutely bananas. I try to get her to go out and play, but that never lasts very long. If she goes out she's only gone for a few minutes then she's back again. There are the endless "Can I have (insert food item here)"?

My mother asked me what was bothering me yesterday and I tried to explain as nicely as I could and she wasn't happy with me. She thinks that I should be able to handle my sister when I know that she wouldn't be able to if she were me. She would be ready to rip her hair out or have a nervous breakdown. She's gotten so used to expecting so much of me that she just takes for granted that I might need a break now and again. I'm only human, last time I checked everyone needs a break from time to time. I understand that she works hard M-F. I appreciate that, but a little understanding on her part for me would be nice. She tells me how she needs a break from my sister, and I'm the one who mainly has to watch her. She thinks that I should get my medicine increased that I take for stress. I don't think that's going to "just fix the problem" though. Maybe if I wasn't expected to watch my sister all the time, clean up, etc. I wouldn't be under so much stress. It bothered me that she wasn't even understanding or sympathetic. :(
I work with special ed kids for 5 hours a day, and let me tell you, by the time I go home, I am very ready for a break. They are often sweet kids, but very taxing, especially when they won't listen, start hitting/fighting back, screaming, etc. So I empathize. I don't see how your mom can be so uncaring. You're clearly not a robot. She needs a break from your sister, but you don't? I don't see how anyone could think that way.

Jen, I agree with Cathy. You are a sister...not a provider. Yes, you are there to help out WHEN you can, but you are not supposed to obliged in doing so. She is not your child. I think it might be best to spend some time with JUST your mom (take her out to lunch or shopping or something) to sit together and calmly explain this to her. Mention that you are happy to help out when you can, but you also have your OWN life to concentrate on as well. In any case, good luck.

I just saw this (http://journals.aol.com/aolvideo/AOLVideoBlog/entries/2006/08/31/on-stage-seizure/376) and it makes me sick!!!

These girls were doing a song onstage and she falls and has a seizure! You'd figure someone would get up and help her. Nope. They kept on singing. It took someone 29 seconds to come on to the stage to help her. What is wrong with people!? Worst is AOL filed this video under comedy. As someone who has epilepsy, I don't think it's one bit funny.:mad:

I'm sorry, Kelly. My younger sister has epilepsy. She isn't allowed to drive a car as a result of it. I know that someone having a seizure due to epilepsy is a very scary thing. :(

I didn't know your sister has epilepsy, I'm sorry. I too have to wait to get my license. I have to be seizure free for a year so whenever I have even a little absence seizure, it resets the clock. I am going to my neurologist to see about getting a Vaguel Nerve Stimulator though. I hope I am a canidate! :)

Which didn't make my parents all to happy because of the gas issue. My older sister and I were both driving my parents' cars at that point. Now, there are times where driving can be such a pain.

My allergies are really bad today. My eyes are bothering me the most. I should have picked a different allergy medicine to take this morning at 10:15am. Benedryl would have worked better than the Rescon MX allergy medicine. I have to wait until 10:15pm to take anything since the Rescon MX is a 12 hour allergy medicine. At least my eyes have let up a little as far as waterimg, but they are still really bugging me. Having chronic allergies isn't fun. :(

Yeah, I hear ya. I stayed awake for 1.5 hours because of the odd insomnia. I just turned my TV on, and I turned my computer on. I figured if I would just check out the forums and read emails it might to do the trick of tiring my eyes out. No luck. So, I started chatting with a European. It was 12:30 p.m. over there while it was 4:30 a.m. here! Hahahaha.... Then I heated up some warm milk because the treptafin makes one feel sleepy. After drinking the milk, I turned off my computer and my TV. I guess that did it because I remember waking up at 8:30 this morning. I slept about 3.5 hours, but it's still better than tossing and turning. Afterall, I did sleep from 11:30-3:30. It was just an odd split sleep schedule.

I've also heard the same thing from people who have moved over here. Locations suck for those of you who are affected. :(

My parents live in a 2nd floor an of course they have the girls over for a visit. It turns out that according to their downstairs neighbor my kids make too much noise( even when they walk). On Saturday, I had left my parents apt for a minute to pick up the laundry; when I come back mom tells me that he had been complaining about 'noise'. I went downstairs to talk to him and he never opened the door.
Well, today the girls went for a visit too and I hear this noise; it was the downstairs guy pounding on his ceiling with a stick telling us to quiet it down. I went downstairs again and told him that if he had a complain to let me know well he say he had a migraine so I kinda apologized. While talking to him, the girls were walking upstairs and he said 'See,there they go again'..WTF???? They were not stomping or jumping ect; they were WALKING!!!! I told him that since it was after 10am they could walk freely and that as kids I can't have them sitting around for long.
HE HAD THE NERVE TO SLAM THE DOOR ON MY FACE!!!
I quietly went upstairs again, the girls kept playing for the rest of the day and even during the quietest times he was pounding on his ceiling complaining of the 'noise'.
Now tomorrow, I'll have to talk to our manager about this. My poor parents are a nervous wreck and don't deserve this. I also don't think that my girls have to stop from visiting them because the neighbor is complaining.

I have this terrible feeling that our local Chicagoland station ME TV is going to stop airing The Facts Of Life after September 15th. :( I'm just now sure what I will do without my daily fix of Jo and Blair. True, I have The Complete First and Second Season on DVD and I plan to get season three on October 24th, and I have about 50 episodes taped, but it just will not be the same not getting to see it everyday.

It is amazing how addicted I have become to this show, considering that prior to last December I had only seen the show like twice. I think all FOL fans will agree with me that this show is like a drug, once you start watching it you can't stop. :lol: Also, Facts helped me get through a tough time in my life late last year and early this year.
Ohhhh....good luck on that! I know how you feel. My apartment complex carries free cable, but I think they only carry basic cable (which has 28 channels). I didn't know that. I thought Basic was up to channel 70 or something. So, I recently lost out on all the GOOD channels I like (Disney, Nick-at-Nite, TV Land, E!, Discovery Health, etc...), so I am annoyed. It was a choice made by the cable company, not the apartment. I mean, I bet if I upgraded, I could get a discount. I have some of those shows on DVD as you have, but it's still different when you see it on actual TV. It's easier to watch TV on a channel sometimes instead of popping in a DVD, going through the selection menu and selecting the episode(s). That's what I have been missing these last two weeks. I have been climbing the walls just craving to watch these channels....

I am thinking about calling up the cable and asking how much it will be to upgrade to Basic Plus (the 70s channels). Maybe it won't be too expensive since the apartment complex has 28 already. Hmmm...

It was a choice made by the cable company, not the apartment. I mean, I bet if I upgraded, I could get a discount. I have some of those shows on DVD as you have, but it's still different when you see it on actual TV. It's easier to watch TV on a channel sometimes instead of popping in a DVD, going through the selection menu and selecting the episode(s). That's what I have been missing these last two weeks. I have been climbing the walls just craving to watch these channels....

I am thinking about calling up the cable and asking how much it will be to upgrade to Basic Plus (the 70s channels). Maybe it won't be too expensive since the apartment complex has 28 already. Hmmm...

I just can't seem to find any info on whether the show is going to contiune being aired or not. I have tried TV Guide Online, Yahoo TV and the homepage of the station itself...nothing. :mad:

I hope that you are feeling better soon, my friend. I know how it feels to be sick, for I was ill with brochitis for an entire month this summer, and it sucked!!!

Oh, have you tried www.zap2it.com ? You have to create an account to customize your time zone and channel preferences. But, it has a great search engine if you use the old search engine version. The new one sucks, in my opinion. But, it would be a great tool. I use this site to create hardcopies of my TV schedules.

I can name a couple of things that are worth bitching over.

- I may be coming down with something AGAIN. No head cold- my sinuses are fine, I know that much. But my throat hurts. I never actually had a sore throat when I was battling my head cold at the end of August, so I think it is finally just catching up to me. Hooray for sore throats. :mad:

- The guy I am seeing right now is coming down with something, himself. Chills and headaches...Poor guy. His last day at work before his weekend will be on Saturday. When he gets off work for his weekend, he will have worked 12 straight days without any time off. :(

- Biology. :cuss:

- A day for me to remember: September 12, 1999. And how am I feeling about this? ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS, thanks for asking.

I'm going to bed now. Please make sure I don't wake up until I get out for my Christmas break, starting on December 14th.

Some guy that bought something from me on ebay just wrote me more or less scolding me for not giving him feedback yet. HELLO...since when do people beg for feedback? I am SO not in the mood for this ****.

I officially work for the WORST teachers in the world, especially the special ed teachers. No wonder the kids are demon children and half of them are morons. I seriously want to friggin choke them all or something. I now have 3 recesses and when I voiced my dislike and concern (yay winter), all I got was this, SO WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM? look. Great way to treat your fellow workers. We're not goddamn peons, and even without a teaching certificate, I'm smarter than all of you are. :livid: First off, the woman gives us a flyer, info sheet, etc, that was full of errors, and then she can't even bother to learn how to spell my name right. And she's my "superior." I'm going to work and not saying a f-ing word all day long for the rest of the school year. F them all.

Damn.... I just found out in an email that our dean accepted the Associate Vice President of Instruction at the college where I work. That means, she will not be our dean anymore starting on October 2nd. :( She's such an awesome dean that most of us are not going to be happy. She's just soooo awesome and a GREAT dean! But...it was her choice and in her heart. We should be happy for her, but we are going to lose her over here....

That will mean there will be a vacant dean position. We just hope one particular associate dean doesn't apply for her dean position. He is VERY disorganized and doesn't get things done, and.... so much more. In other words, this particular person would not be the right person for the job. :cuss:

Here we go.... another major change... This one will be a MAJOR change in our division.

Well after two days with doctors, they think with all my symptoms, it's my gullbladder (sp?). I have to go for a CT Scan and drink yucky stuff and the Dr. gave me some strong pain meds to help ease the pain. I should be feeling better soon, but yet, another burden.

Kelly, sorry about all you have to go through. Well, at least you are getting all this taken care of. It's very important for your health, first and foremost. Hang in there. It sounds like you already are. :)

Allison and Jenny, yeah, I hear you both on how sucky it can be when there is an interim dean. They are just acting deans, but it's still not the same. Even when there is a brand new dean, each person is so different. Such as our dean.....she is so unique and has a bubbly and personable attitude that we are going to miss having.

Man, I filled out a "Get to Know Me" survey, and I kept babbling about my new crush on one part of the "love" section to his sister-in-law. She sent the survey, and I filled it out. It's sent directly JUST to her, but still....I feel embarrassed now. I regret even bringing it up TOO much. I should've just mentioned it neutrally. D'oh! Way to be discreet, Mona. :wallbang

Was it one of those surveys where you expect to get a result and instead all the answers are sent to the person who sent it to you?

My allergies are still really bad. They have been botherimg me most of the week.
Mine too. Doesn't help I have 3 recess duties. Yay for pollen. pissed:

I should go to the dr., but I can't really afford it, and to get "free", I'd have to go to the walk-in clinic and I don't wanna go alone.

Well if it is your galbladder they might need to remove it. You may have gal stones that are causing your pain. If you go for a CT Scan you will be required to drink a substance so that they can see your organs. If they give you Barium, it tastes EXTREMELY NASTY. They will give you either creamscile or another flavor. The creamscile is really, really gross. You have to drink all of it. It comes in a tall container. You can't eat anything ahead of time or you won't be able to have the test done. The reason I know about the stuff they make you drink for CT Scans is because I had to have a CT Scan done back in March. The worst part is the stuff you have to drink. The test itself isn't bad. After having that test done I don't think I can ever eat a creamscile ever again because the taste of it would remind me of the awful stuff I had to drink for that test.
They actually call it creamscicle? Way to ruin something tasty.

Oh, my doctor told me the stuff I have to drink for that test. I heard it is a lot better than it used to be. She suggested strawberry. I'm used to CT Scans just not the ones where you have to drink that crap. I'm just so glad the pain is eased! :)

:nod: It's called Barium, but the flavor of it is called creamscicle. I know what you mean about ruining something that is tasty. I used to actually like creamscicles. The stuff tastes like a really sour orange creamscile. The worst part is that it has pulp (pieces) in it. Ok, I'll stop now, that sounds gross I know.

Argh.... The second day this week I totally missed Step Aerobics!! I can't believe it. I am NOT happy. I missed out ALL this week because I overslept. I don't know why. I slept earlier last night just so I wouldn't oversleep this morning and also set both my alarm clocks. NOT one woke me up, and I woke up at 6:56 a.m. (of course, the class starts at 7:00 a.m.). I would NOT make it to the warmup. It's only a 55-minute class. Grrrrr..... I can't keep missing this class. I should be IN class at this moment. Damnit.... pissed: I just hope to be up-and-running next week and wake up ON time to get TO class. Geez....

Even though I think that my cold is getting better, I am still pretty sick. Infact, earlier this afternoon, I felt like I was going to pass out. I became really dizzy and my vision became very blury and I had to hold on to the wall so that I would not fall down. I think that by early next week, I will be feeling better...I hope.

Geez, I have slept SO much today. I went to bed at 12:50am, got up at 7:30 this morning to get ready for my biology class (10 to 10:50), and was home by a lil after 11. I think I laid down for a nap at around...Gosh, I have no idea. 1:30 to 2pm? I slept til 4, and then went online for a bit, and slept on and off til 6:15. My head is killing me, I have cramps from hell, and I'm hungry.

Argh.... The second day this week I totally missed Step Aerobics!! I can't believe it. I am NOT happy. I missed out ALL this week because I overslept. I don't know why.

Damnit.... pissed: I just hope to be up-and-running next week and wake up ON time to get TO class. Geez....

I know how that is. I used to miss classes all the time because of that same reason. It happened a lot during the fall 2004/spring 2005 semesters in particular, becuase I had a 9am class both semesters. (I think? I don't remember anymore...I know I had one for sure in '05) Over this past summer, I decided it was high time to REALLY work on my sleeping patterns- I was going to bed between 3am to 5am, or even as late as 6am, and I would get up between 9:30am to 11:30am (yes, 11:30am, even if I went to bed as late as 6am). Case in point, it was REALLY ****ing annoying how I could never get to sleep until late, and I would only get maybe 6 hours of sleep, tops.

So I worked on changing my sleeping patterns over the summer, and the latest I allowed myself to be up was 1 in the morning, and I got up by 9 or earlier in the morning. I have LOVED the changes I've made so far, because I have early-morning classes this semester. Two times a week I have to be at school by 9 in the morning, and three times a week, at 10 in the morning. It's a bit of a commute to get to school, so I get up 2 1/2 hours before class, to give myself time to do whatever and then I spend the last 30 minutes commuting to school and walking to class. So, I get up at 6:30 if I have to be at school at 9, and 7:30 if I have to be at school at 10. And- I LOVE IT! I forgot how much I missed being up IN THE MORNING, as opposed to late in the morning. I dunno what I coul do to help you... maybe you just need to work on going to bed earlier? Make it a routine, or something. One of the big things that helped me the most was to get into bed 30 minutes (or more) before I fall asleep, and watch TV until I nod off or whatever.
