I'm sorry your life turned out so hard, Eugene.

There's been talking toys around for a looong time now. Sometimes they say the wrong thing or at least it sounds that way. I remember having a Teletubby that said "Faggot". He got ripped up by the dogs so that's the end of that story. For Christmas Kara got a talking elephant. It was one of the elephants from the Diego collection. She calls him 'Peanut' after her baby Elekk in w0w. He says a few cute things. "Thanks for rescuing me!" "Help me! I'm lost!" "Help! I can't find my elephant turd!" Yes, elephant TURD. Kara came running up to me just this morning and said "Moooooommmmmmmy!! He can't find his poopoo!!" I want so bad to write an Amazon review on it.

Also, we went to a few lakes and to the river on Wednesday. It was nice. Warm but very windy. I took alot of pictures but on my second cf card, I started getting a CF ERROR. wtf? I was slightly pissed. So all the pictures I took of the ducks, pelicans, cranes and whatever else are all gone forever. I tried using a CF reader on Mom's computer and some image rescue software but none of the files were able to be recovered. I don't know what would be worse : never taking the pictures or never being able to recover the pictures taken. I'll say the latter is worse. Also, it was a Lexar Platinum II 1gig card that I got from Walmart. I know that Lexar was offering a RMA on Lexar Professional 80X but apparently the card I have has no problems but after googling , I see alot of DRXT cameras screw up with them. Something with doing other things while the image is still being written. Yeah I've had it for almost a year so it was expected die soon but I figured it would last 2 years at the least.

but on a happier note, Kara found my Michael Jackson Greatest Hits HIStory Vol.1! Predator he may be but he sure does make house cleaning go by so much faster!

I heard by word of email that if you have a troublesome cough, you should smear Vick's Salve on the bottom of your feet then put on some socks. I didn't have any Vick's so I smeared my feet down good with Children's Cherry Mentholatum. Then put Casey's socks on. Nope, I wasn't about to get my own socks nasty.. So here I sit with greasy toes and a tingling chest because I rubbed the excess all over me so I wouldn't waste it. I know it would have been pretty easy to just put it back in the jar it came from but I was feeling lazy at the time. Oh, what's that? I just coughed again! but maybe by morning I'll be able to say this sticky shit was worth it.

edit:

Oooh I forgot and sat on my foot.. Tingly!

And here it is.

and

and here's a map to someone's house!

and here will be a video of shitty quality and no audio. Apparently you have to upload them to some MSN Soapbox page to get them to work with this. May not work anyway.. It seems to be hung on processing.

and I think that will be all until I see something else new to play with.

Disturbed - Alternative Times Vol 75 - Land Of Confusion

A now playing list.. Duuno why I need that..

and a flickr image adder.

A few nights ago was my Grandmother's birthday. Kara and I went to her house to join in the festivities late in the evening. It was a little cold out but not cold enough to do what Kara said. My mother asked her "What's Mommy gonna freeze off?" Her answer was supposed to be 'arse'. Instead, my sweet daughter said "Mommy's gonna freeze her pussies off." Now I was really hoping she said tootsies or footsies but it was an unmistakable PUSSIES. I still don't know where she learned the word pussies from. Everyone knows around here we call it a cunt. I'm just kidding there! It's a v'jina!

My internet 5 minutes is up. Time to go clean up outside and freeze my pussies off while I'm out there.

There's a million of them.

A broom falling means company. --That makes me glad my broom is always laying on the floor instead of being propped up like it should be.

Dropping a rag means a slouch is coming. --If I drop a rag I will do my damnedest to catch that thing in mid-air before it hits the ground. and if it does hit the ground, I slightly freak out in my mind. Then I trot off to the bathroom to put on a bra and some mascara so I don't have that 'just woke up look' that has recently become my signature appearance.

Back to my point.. There's been several times that have I dropped random things and wondered what the superstitious world will have in store for that day. Just last night I dropped my panties then mentally freaked again thinking "OMG I'm gonna get pregnant!"

All the salt ones.. Spilling it, sprinkling it on doorways, passing it across a table. I may skimp on passing it across the table but in my mind, I'm thinking about it.

And I count crows..

One for sorrow-

Two for joy-

Three for a girl-

Four for a boy-

Five for silver-

Six for gold lost-

Seven for secret never told.

There's like a gozillion different ways that can be said. Sorrow,mirth,wedding, birth, etc.. I think I always see only one crow and nearly break my neck turning around to look for another.

There's a black cat crossing my path.. I've gotten used to that. It's just Black Betty or one of her offspring sniffing around for food. Salt, Betty?

Dora's on! Gotta go!

Dear Internet People,

Today we were taking our dogs walking in the woods and Charlie disappeared. We have no idea what happened to him. He was right there with us and then he was just gone. We came home and waited for him to show up and he never did. After a half hour we drove down the highway looking for him. I didn't expect to see him there because he's never gone that way but since dogs can be weird, we looked anyway. We've made four complete passes through the woods here. I've checked the entire fence line to see if he was hung in it. If he was at a neighbor's house, they'd have (hopefully) called or (hopefully) brought him back. He's been missing since about 3pm and it's now after midnight and still no sign. So if you or anyone you know lives in this town, keep an eye out for him? You'd know him if you saw him because of his messed up right eye. He's got a scar there that holds his eye open and makes it look like a triangle. Kinda creepy if you just stare at it..

At least the cops and naggas were roleplaying..

This is the coolest thing I've seen in a while. The more I look at it, the more I want it. Full Bloom Tea. I may even order the sample packs they have to try out.

My first doodle with the Bamboo. This is gonna take a lot of getting used to. Really hard because I usually draw with the paper sideways so now I got my brain wires crossed trying to do this. Turning the monitor sideways didn't help much.

That is a sad coffee pot. It's sad because it's old and broken. It can no longer hold it's liquid. A broken coffee pot makes a lot of things sad. Look at that cup.. It's getting leaked all over. And the hand! It gets dripped on by semi-scalding hot coffee. The kitchen countertops get stained with brown rings. Before it's all over, the coffee pot gets moved to a new home in the sink where it sits in a tiny square all day leaking on itself and thinking of the glory days it used to have. Someone should just put it out of it's misery.

And that's why I am now accepting donations for a new coffee pot! Sure, they're pretty cheap but I just bought that Bamboo Fun tablet and I'm still paying for it.. (If you know what I mean.) Without that tablet, I would not have been able to skillfully edit out the nice feature of the coffee pot above. My pot doesn't have all that fancy stuff. It just has an on/off button. Simple, eh? Look over there.. To the right. See that tiny button that says 'Donate'? Buy me a coffee pot! Without a new pot, my productivity level will drastically decrease. Well, if I produced anything it would.

So I made a new Blood Elf character to play around with a bit and I've been trying to get Kara to like it. I was telling her things like "Ohh Look at his big ears!" "Look! He's so cute!" and she retorts "Mommy.. Bud Effs are NOT cute. Kitty cats are cute. My bess fwien IS a kitty cat!"
