766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 26,May,2004 | Warning! I hate hoax warnings, but this one is important. Please send this to everyone on your e-mail list. If a man comes to your front door and says he is conducting a survey and asks you to show him your ass, DO NOT show him your ass. This is a scam; he only wants to see your ass.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 24,May,2004 | LOL There are times when I just don't laugh enough. You know, days go by and a chuckle or giggle may escape me, but not those really hearty, robust laughs that shake your ribcage and make your face hurt. I love those kinds of laughs. Lately, I notice I've just been laughing more. Laughing till tears are welling up in my eyes, laughing till I'm hoarse. The other night, I was carrying my littlest diva with her head resting on my shoulder, her nose just brushing my neck. I giggled; she breathed out her nose onto the softness of my neck. I giggled louder. Before we knew it, we were both giggling hysterically - me from being tickled and her from doing the tickling. That was the release of a floodgate of laughter for me. Now, I'm laughing quite a lot; at small misunderstandings and funny little anecdotes. Life is funny, after all. I'm feeling good, and my joy is flowing out in my laughter. And, funniest thing of all is, the more I laugh, the better I feel. Laughter must be so good for the soul. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 20,May,2004 | What say you? So with the new look came a new comment feature. I switched from Haloscan to the Blogger comments. But, I don't get comments now. All except that one question regarding bubble boy. So, I was going to test the comment thing, you know - 'Is this thing on?' Turns out it was configured wrong and if you did want to comment on a post, you would have to sign in or something. Well, I'm going to assume that THAT's the reason I've had no comments lately. It couldn't possibly be that I've left you all speechless with my brilliance and charm. *heh heh* So, anyway, I've fixed the comments, so when you want to comment on a post, now you can . You're welcome. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 18,May,2004 | Always Learning My teacher/pastor mentioned last night how she has learned to see the good in everything that happens. Even the 'bad' things have some kind of 'good' in them. A blessing or a lesson. I felt pretty good when she said it, because I already knew that. Yesterday was a tough lesson for me. I received a call about my mom, and that she's being treated for her mental illness again. This happened off and on while I was growing up. Anyone who's had the same experience knows what I'm talking about. I was either on my own or in charge of my younger siblings while mommy was not around. I haven't really had to go back to that since being an 'adult', but yesterday, I was thrown back to being 5 years old and all alone. But, instead of 'burying myself in my work' as my boss does, I decided to investigate my feelings on a deeper level. Figure out what I was feeling, where I was feeling it, and why. And I kept reminding myself that no matter how 'bad' a day I felt I may be having, ultimately it was my mother who was truly suffering. So, I realized that there was some good in that experience and I looked for the lesson in it. Then I said a little prayer for her, and for me, and today I hope we're both doing a little better.

And to think, I read him when... his link has been on my blog since before the whole mess started, and its going to make a damn good movie, I think. Next, seems like my good vibes are rubbing off on my oldest little diva. I've been hauling her back and forth between school and afterschool, so she could stay late for jump rope practice. That's right, jump rope. She's a 'jumper', and she's got the quads and calves to prove it. She's been going to practice with her team at least twice a week, and I've been schlepping over from my office to her school, to the youth center and back to my office after every practice. Last night, her team competed against several other local elementary schools. It wasn't like what I've seen on ESPN, but it was very cool. I never realized you could do so much with a jumprope. Well, anyway, my daughter's team won FIRST PLACE in her category. Woo-hoo! I'm so proud. And, finally, I bought my ticket to Boston today. So, that's it. I'm all set... all I have to do is wait for July to get here. It's good being me right now. Diva out. |

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 10,May,2004 | Everything new! First of all, this is my first entry with the new Blogger look. Love it! Second new thing is urlLink my new car . After the driver side window wouldn't go up on Thursday, I decided it really was finally time to get a new car. I've been putting it off and putting it off, and the window was the last straw. I'd been doing my 'don't rain' dance for three days, since the window wouldn't go up. On Sunday, I walked into a dealership that had contacted me on an internet query. I was going to get something else, but I got such a good deal on this car instead, so I took it. I think Fred will like it ~ in fact I know he would. When you turn the headlights at night, the floorboards light up inside the car a lovely neon blue. And the cupholders change colors from red to green, yellow to blue. I have a disco in my car at night. My little divas love it! Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 30,June,2004 | Open for Business I've been practicing Asthanga yoga for more than 5 years now. Granted, I've been a little lazy lately, and haven't really practiced at home regularly for a few months. The last time I went to a class I injured myself deep down in my shoulder. I couldn't move my arm in the morning when getting out of bed, and it ached for weeks. Then, about 2 weeks ago, just as the shoulder stopped aching, I woke up with a stiff neck and it's still bothering me a little. All excuses and delays aside, I went to an Open Yoga class last night. I tried talking myself out of it, noting other 'more important' chores I could do instead. I even arrived 10 minutes late to the asthanga class I had intended to take, but eventually ended up at the Open Yoga class instead. Persistence prevailed! It wasn't the usual asthanga, but I still was sweating while standing still. I was introduced to a few poses that I have never tried, and found that challenging and fun. It kind of shook me up a little. I was reminded of why I love yoga. This morning I'm a little sore, I'm sure its only a precursor to what tomorrow will be like. But, still its not as deep an ache as asthanga gives me, or as deep as that injured shoulder asthanga gave me. I'll still practice asthanga, but I'll probably mix it up a little more often. Fred won't get this, but it just felt so good to sweat again. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 23,June,2004 | Green Light Kind of Day Most of the time, I hit every red light. But this morning was a green light day. I don't know why, but I every light I came to on my drive in this morning was green. It's a great way to start a day! And, I just found that urlLink my cute little car made the urlLink Top 10 Gas Sippers List for 2004 . Which means I'm saving gas while rolling through those greens. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 21,June,2004 | Gentle Reminder Last night, while driving home after a yummy dinner at Sweet Tomatoes, I had what I thought was the misfortune of being caught up in traffic behind a v-e-r-y slow driver. We're talking like 45 MPH when the limit is 55, and everyone does 65. I was frustrated because I was trapped behind him for a minute or two, but was soon able to move into a faster lane. Grrrrr.... But then, a few minutes later, the two left (fast) lanes slowed down to move around an accident. An accident that had obviously occurred within the last 5 or 10 minutes. There were 3 cars all crankled up together, and one man was lying flat on his back on the roadside, with a few people trying to help him. Police and ambulance hadn't even made it there yet. Suddenly, I kind of felt a little ashamed of my recent frenzy and frustration. It may well be that, thanks to that v-e-r-y slow driver, I avoided being a part of this accident. I just keep getting reminded that I don't always know the Plan, or what some other person has in mind. I only know what I know, and I keep being reminded that I don't really know very much. Diva out. |

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 14,June,2004 | depressed? my urlLink boyfriend *still not really used to that term* said i seemed depressed on friday night. i didn't really think so at the time, maybe just a little tired. but, then i realized that we are in summer now. and i ALWAYS get depressed in the summer. don't know why, i just do. and of course my little diva-ettes are going away on sunday to visit their dad in atlanta for 15 days. just the fact that they will be away from me for so long is enough to make me cry, nevermind it being summer too. so, i'm fatigued for about a week now and i can't shake it. got a kink in my neck since waking up friday morning which is adding to my fatigue. little bit of a sore throat, so i'm also fighting a cold, and apparently losing that battle. ok, a little depressed maybe. but i'm taking the next 3 days off for a little r&r with my girls before they go away. that may help. diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 10,June,2004 | Mindful Meanderings People move in and out of our lives constantly (especially when you work in a hotel!). Most people move in and out of your line of vision without ever leaving a mark. It is those rare, soul-shaking moments when you meet someone new, but somehow familiar, that truly leave marks on the soul. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, it really makes you wonder (much like this entire blathering must be doing now). I met someone like that the other day, new but not new, and I always relish moments like that. Then, did you ever notice how poetry can make just about anything sound appealing? Romantic and dreamy? I'm going to a spoken word event tonight to hear a singer that I really like. It always amazes me how poetry works on your brain, making everything from waterdrops to blood sound oh, so wonderful. I'm tempted to write something poetic about some really horrible thing, like decomposing flesh or garbage or something, but I'll spare you. Of course, if you'd like to submit something in comments... you'll only serve to prove my point. Also, I had a subtle reminder of what it means to let god work through you. I never really considered what it means, but I had a great lesson yesterday morning. My littlest diva-ette grabbed a bagel to go for breakfast, but then never ate it. So, I removed it from the car, still intact and figured I would have it for breakfast myself. On the way from car to hotel, I came across one of the resident homeless men that linger on the sidewalk on our hotel block. Sometimes he's there, sometimes not. I asked if he would like it, and he asked me, 'You don't want it?'. Kind of a funny reply, I think. But I assured him that it was his, handed it to him and had some granola I keep stashed in my desk drawer. My littlest diva was the tool that allowed the universe to get that man his breakfast. You just never know what comes your way. And just when will school go year-round? I have to sign up my oldest diva-ette for summer camp at $750 for 10 weeks. Not bad, until I find that I don't get a sibling discount, since I'm not a resident where the camp is, and the littlest diva will also cost $750. $1500 for 10 weeks of fun in the sun. I'm thinking a labor camp in Siberia may be better, put 'em to work and pay me! *sigh* Wonder if Martha Stewart has any openings. Diva out. |

After the driver's side window got stuck in the down position last month, I went out and bought my new car in a desparate act to avoid being rained on. I got the car on May 9th - Mother's Day.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 04,June,2004 | North to Alaska... Well Everyone, I am off to Alaska on the 16th to compete in the marathon. I still need about $1000.00 more for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to meet my commitment, so if you can donate, or think of someone that may donate, I would appreciate it. You can still go to urlLink my site and donate online. I am sorry but I havent updated it since the big Wine and Cheese party, and it was such a success too. Maybe I'll update it tonight. It's been kinda crazy, training for a marathon, getting my kid to all of his martial arts classes and swim team, workin', being a single Mom, fundraising, and... My God... what am I insane? Anyway, if you wish to purchase raffle tickets for the grill, I have attached a flyer with the info. Please remember, if you donate towards the grill, be sure to email me your info, so that I can include you in the drawing on Saturday. Please look for my further fundraising events and please feel free to share any ideas, that you may have to assist in my fundraising efforts. Thank you again, EVERYONE, for your support.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 01,June,2004 | Post Memorial Day Post Well, this year's memorial day was kind of a bust, in that i got no bbq at all this year. not a rib, not a wing, not a weenie. *sigh* But, on the good side, I did get to see the movie 'The Day After Tomorrow', and of course going to see a big summer blockbuster open on Memorial Day is part of the whole tradition, right? Yeah, honor our warriors by grilling steaks and watching people blow things up on the big screen. So, it was pretty good and it struck a few chords in me, considering how much i am thinking about impermanence and emptiness these days. *meditation is really sinking in* Of course, there were a few quirks, like the phoney monster-like very digitally enhanced wolves scene, and just what happened to the people on that ship anyway? nothing was topsy turvy in the kitchen, so they didn't fall out, the ship didn't go under and back up, nobody froze (that you could see)... ah, minor details that you are NOT supposed to think about. Just watch the movie and eat your popcorn, and shut up already. Liked it, would see it again. Hope all of dear readers (all 2 or, dare I say 3, of you!)had a faaaabulous Memorial Day Weekend too. Diva out. **in afterthought, diva whispers carefully to herself... i'm sure that part about not getting any weenies this weekend will get Fred going on for a bit*** |

Yes, I'm a Democrat - I'm not rich enough to be Republican. But this convention goes on way past my usual bedtime. I'm exhausted. I mentioned to my boss today that I am strongly considering moving to Illinois, just so I can vote for Barack Obama. He replied, 'Some day it may not matter; you'll be able to vote for him no matter which state you live in.' hmmm... President Obama.... you never know.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 22,July,2004 | Penny for your thoughts I had the distinct pleasure of taking part in a research panel last night on my new Scion xA. Not only did they ask my opinions of my cute little car, but they paid me for my time. I may have learned more from that meeting than the crew did. The chief engineer and designer from Japan was there, along with several other people from both Japan and California. There were only 2 other xA owners on the panel with me. But they were seriously into cars. One guy immediately removed the Pioneer stereo for something 'better', changed the wheels and tires, added coil-overs (whatever the hell they are) and lowered the car. The other guy (of course these were both guys!) added a feature where he flicks his high beams to open the security gate in his building! This last one really impressed the car design team. And, apparently, there's quite a sub-culture surrounding the urlLink Scions . xB'ers look with disdain on the xA'ers, we're like the red-headed step children of the Scion world. xA'ers commune with one another, and are likely to beep and wave at each other while passing on the highways. And who knows what the newly release tC coupe will bring to the picture. There's even on online forum 'Scion Life' where Scion owners unite and chat. In the meantime, I'm just a boring little single mom diva driving around in what apparently is some sort of cultural phenomenon. Who knew? All I know, is I got paid :) Diva out. |

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 20,July,2004 | There's no place like home -- OR -- Home is where the Heart is Hello dear reader, and welcome to another episode of my diva-ness. I set out for Bahstn (that's Boston for most of us) last Thursday, where I spent 5 days exploring the city. I had intened to immerse myself in yoga, but... well... that didn't happen. I did go to a class, but the teacher I wanted to see didn't actually teach there. So, in the end, I flew to Boston for a class I can take here in Miami. Whatever. I still managed to walk every inch of that town, from North End (Little Italy) to South End, Chinatown and Cambridge (Harvard). I saw Paul Revere's house, Benjamin Franklin's house, some famous poet's house (I forgot all of his 3 names right now - Longfellow?), and even Ye Olde Oyster House, established waaay back in the 1600's. You Boston readers will probably know I've gotten most of this wrong, but I was never very good in history anyway. I loved the blend of old, 17th century buildings mixed with modern, glass skyscrapers. And Beacon Hill - yeah, I could live there (in the summer). I walked up all 294 (?) steps of the Bunker Hill Monument. My heart was working so hard that a closed-up cut on my finger started to bleed again! And you'd think they could at least open the windows up there, for cryin' out loud. I stayed in a historical hotel, so historical that I was afraid to open my eyes all of my first night there. I was afraid I'd open them and see dead people. I visited 4 or 5 cemeteries while there, all dating back to the 1600's. I love old cemeteries, and these were the oldest I've ever visited. Old churches, old streets, old houses - all preserved and blended in with modern buildings. It worked. Although, I did miss my little divas and my new boyfriend. I was sooo ready to come home by Sunday, but was there till Monday. I don't think I'll be travelling alone again anytime soon. It was great, but it may have been better with someone to share it with. I took more than 200 pics, and once I get them all together on my website, I'll share some with you. Of course, they don't actually have me in them, since there was no body around to take my picture. But I did manage to take a few special ones for Fred. That's all for now, diva readers. Gotta get back to my buried desk and get something done. Diva out. |

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 13,July,2004 | We Need Rain! Not only does the current drought cause urlLink troublesome brushfires , but I remember reading somewhere that dry rainy seasons create perfect conditions for strong hurricanes. The basis of that thought was established with Hurricane Andrew, and research on previous rain measures prior to hurricanes in the past. The fires are probably 20 miles west of here, but smoke filled the air downtown this morning, and you can smell it all the way over here on Miami Beach. Its as bad as the media makes it out to be. I am so close to going outside and doing a little rain dance. Either that, or I may just break down and wash my car. ';) Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Living Vicariously An email I received from a friend who just returned from attempting to climb to the top of the Grand Tetons in Jackson, Wyoming... 'I just want to say to you that it was a pleasure and an honor to share this experience with you all. I am one lucky bitch. love, amy Hi all, Here is the link to the Mac site with photos from Gloria and my attempt to summit the Grand Teton. urlLink PhotoAlbum10.html Angela was our guide and Karen came along to audit. We hit some rough weather as we approached the saddle the first day at about 11,400 feet; first it rained, then grapple, otherwise known as hail, and then snow with lighting and thunder. It snowed and blew hard through the evening accumulating about 4 inches, when we got up at 3 am. We struggled to about 1000' from the summit, but both Angela and Karen agreed that it was taking too long and it was too icy to continue. (Besides the fact that both G and I were damn cold.) It was a wonderful adventure and I learned a lot. We were the only group up there that evening and the mountain was beautiful. When the sun finally did come out it was truly a glorious sight. None of the other groups that followed us up made the summit either, so that confirmed our decision. The camaraderie made the experience and the serenity and majesty of the mountain will draw me back. xoxo, Amy' I have to admit I have absolutely no desire to climb a mountain, but its kind of nice to dream... and to read first-hand from someone who has.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 08,July,2004 | Referred to in the Referrer I've been meaning to comment on this before, and today I think I can put it off no longer. I always get a kick out of the Referrer spot on my blog, the place that tracks web referrences to this page; in a most unscientific and sporadic way. I once read a blog page that added symbols to misspell a popular current topic, just to avoid being referred to in search engines. Now I see why. I get some of the weirdest mentions on that little referrer! And, sadly, sometimes that referrer is more entertaining than my blog. What sparked my comments today was the 'miami beach shitty fireworks' search. First of all, why would anyone search in that specific way? What exactly were they looking for? Second, I didn't mention fireworks on the beach in my blog... did I? Maybe I did. Anyway, I think its funny because, obviously, I am not the only one with that opinion of this year's fireworks. And, perhaps, the searcher was there too. Sitting on Miami Beach, with me and 49,998 other spectators, waiting and waiting... for a show that started too late and ended too soon. We are all connected, and sometimes we get to see little hints of this truth. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 02,July,2004 | Don't You Hate It When... When it doesn't rain like its supposed to in the summer? Days are too hot, a/c units break down, and palmetto bugs *ick* come out of everywhere looking for water. When you're wearing your big granny underwear (for those days) and you realize (a little too late) that when you reach down for a file, the granny undie waistline reaches far above your pants waist - BUSTED! When the one gift you've been waiting for for MONTHS finally gets delivered, but its broken. When you do nice things for people and they take advantage of it and complain when little things don't go just right. When your boss takes off in the middle of the day to go to the gym, and you're stuck in the office holding down the fort. When a good friend is hurting but you don't really know how to make her feel any better about all that she's losing.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 09,August,2004 | Woo-hoo! Yesterday, someone asked me about my blog and whether or not I knew how many people visited it. I said, with great pride, that, 'Yes, and I've had almost 5000 hits in a little more than two years'. urlLink Wow, it's been more than 2 years. But I see that I was incorrect, because my little counter in the corner says 5004. Woo-hoo! Thank you, thank you dear readers. You like me, you really like me. (couldn't resist). So, Happy Belated Bloggiversary to Me, and Happy Monday to you, dear reader, whichever number you are. Diva out. |
766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 06,August,2004 | The Sky is falling! For those of you who know what I mean, Mercury is going retrograde on Monday. And, from all accounts, its going to be a bitch. Mercury hasn't even started yet, and my daughter just lost my brand new, very cool cell phone that I got in June. wahhhhh!! Fortunately, I have already called my service provider and they have turned off that very cool phone and switched my service back to my very boring cell phone stashed away at home.

766,556 | female | 34 | indUnk | Sagittarius | 05,August,2004 | Gotta have friends I guess I would be remiss if I didn't mention the great time I had with two of my friends over the weekend. Friends from high school, Gardenpixie, Wyldchyld and myself all met for sushi with our significant others. We are, and have always been, quite a potpourri of girls. My boyfriend even asked me how it could be that we were ever friends ~ we are very different from each other in general. Gardenpixie and her hubby were celebrating their 17th wedding anniversary, they married very young and the marriage just keeps holding. Wyldchyld brought along her new boyfriend, as she and her got-married-really-young husband have split. Then there's me with my online boyfriend after a very shortlived marriage. We have different tastes in music, food and fun. We may not have much in common, but somehow there is a common thread that binds us. Years and miles have been unable to undo the ties. And, when I'm with my friends, I feel 16 again. And, just as we did years ago, I never laughed so hard as when I'm with my friends. I'm fortunate to have a great collection of eclectic friends from all walks of life. It probably confuses the hell out of my boyfriend, trying to figure out why I call these people friends, but honestly, there is no rhyme or reason to my friendship. It's pretty much out there for anyone who'll claim it. Diva out. |

2,181,683 | male | 15 | Arts | Cancer | 12,May,2004 | Mood : Very Sad Weather : Nice and Sunny (Happier than I am) Well this is it. After some testing, and thinking, this is my blog v 0.9 Almost done ;)... My favorite Anime got lisenced by Funimation today, no more amazing subbed episodes for me. It's called FullMetal Alchemist, and in short - its amazing. I wish there was somthing I could do, but I'm afraid there isn't. I don't have Cable or Satelite, so I probably won't be able to watch it when it comes on TV. It make me so angry. Well that's the downlight for today. |
4,275,715 | female | 34 | indUnk | Virgo | 19,August,2004 | I woke up this morning feeling really depressed...dunno why. last nite b4 going to bed, I prayed to God for me and him...hoping that everything wud be fine with us one day. I prayed for God to give me a sign. Then I dreamt that he was with me and we were about to catch a plane somewhere. Me n my boyfriend, we've been togather for 3 years. I live here in Singapore and he lives in New York. We keep our relationship going by telephone and by me or him making the effort to fly up to see each other but that happens 2 or 3 times a year depending on whether he can make it here. All the time when we're apart, I feel so 'apart' from him. People ask, why don't u both get married. Well, I guess God is not allowing that to happen yet. 5 months ago I fell into a very deep depression. I was on anti-depressant and I cannot stop crying for days. I became better after afew weeks and I told myself that I never want to go thru this again but now I can feel it creeping back to me and I dunno how to prevent this. My boss came to me at work this morning and ask me why am I so quiet?! He mentioned that he's afraid to see me be so quiet. I didn't respond coz I know that if I did I would break down. I find my life so unmeaninful. I'm doing things that people close to me wants me to do. If given the choice, I wud just resign from this hell hole of my company and take a break for 3 or 6mths go for a holiday....be with him (my boyfriend) for awhile and come back and do things I want to do.....why is it so difficult for me to make such a decision? |
4,275,715 | female | 34 | indUnk | Virgo | 19,August,2004 | Hi, my name is Hani. I'm from Singapore. I'm 34years old and still single....life for me lately have been like a topsy turvy and I'm here to let out my feelings, get to know people and to welcome all of you out there to give me your views, your support and your opinions.... Firstly, I have to say the most depressing part of life right now is my job. I hate getting up in the morning going to a job that I don't enjoy, that I think is not fulfilling and meaningless. This job is full of politics and back stabbers. How can I stay long in such an environment? I know that most of you out there will tell me to leave but the money is luring me to stay alittle longer than I should. I'm now looking to do something that I want but I'm lost and confused, dunno where to begin. Than comes my long distance relationship. I've been with a man who prctically lives 20,000miles away from me and if I'm not up there to see him, the only form of contact is the phone and it's not helping me..... |
3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 03,June,2004 | Hello to all of you, salut à toutes :-) First off, thanks to all of you who came for the Movie & Martini extravaganza @ Kim`s . It was COOL. & Kim, thanks for having us. :-) You Rock!! I loved the videos. They really hit home on how women are so so so negatively portrayed in the ads. As objects (and not subjects) of our own destiny.... The impact on us is phenomenal. 3000 ads viewed daily. In the next 10 years, you'll be seeing about ten million nine hundred thousand ads. 10,950,000. Most of them, i guess, women. To continue our discussion on media & women, let's bring magazines to our next meeting. I'd suggested males mags but let's do that another time. I'll get a movie about that another time. For now, let's stick to women's & girls to keep the impact going. WHERE: Royal Oak, Laurier street (between King Edward & Cumberland street) Time: Same as usual 7:30 What you need: 1 magazine. Yourself. ;-) See you tuesday. Anne-Sophie |
3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 12,June,2004 | Thanks to Cynthia and Anne-Sophie for the awesome potluck last night. The food was so delicious, I couldn't stop eating.

3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 11,June,2004 | Bonjour les petites madames, This time, I am all inviting you to the Collection, Tuesday, June 15, 7:30pm. For the last few weeks, we have had a lot of fun discussing women issues, relationships, the impact of media, women role models, etc. But this time, I would like to propose something a little different. First: Each one of you should bring a baby or kid picture of yourself. Then, you need to present us a passion that you have, a book that you read, or an activity that you do and that the other girls don't really know about. I think it would be a great way to solidify our bonds =) By the way, the Collection manager told us he would do any Martini we want, who knows, we might even be able to negotiate a discount hihi! Hope to see you all Tuesday and tonight (Friday) at our little potluck party. |
3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 19,June,2004 | Salut! Here's the update on this week's going ons for tuesday june 22nd. 1) To log on to your account, www.blogger.com then loging with name & password. I sent you all an invite, if you need one again email me [email protected] 2)Some of us are going to the golf shooting range at 6 (Jackie, Shoshannah, April, Anne-Sophie, Cynthia, the Swinging Sistahs). If you want to go, email we'll get organized. WHERE: Rockliffe driving range to shoot a bucket of balls. A free expert giving us tips. It is very cheap $10 for 115 balls (so you share a bucket) and $2 to get clubs. (so $6 each) 3) 7:30 at Apryl's place. She couldn't post her message, so here it is for her. Hey everyone! As you know, I've invited y'all to my place for next Tuesday's meeting. I actually live just in front of Jodi and Kim's place, so it's easy to find. The address is 283 MacLaren St., and the apt. and buzzer # is 205. I'm planning to make sangria (with white wine), but feel free to bring whatever you like. There has been bits and pieces of discussion around Sex and the City and whether or not it can be read as a feminist show. I would like to show a few clips from the show and hopefully delve deeper into the discussion. I'm planning to also post some articles on our blog (if I can figure out how to do so). I've also been reading a lot about Showtime's new series called The L Word, which is a show about a group of lesbians. I've downloaded a few episodes, and I think it would be interesting to watch some clips and compare the female friendships and love relationships to those of SATC. I think it would also be very interesting to hear why everyone has joined this group, and what each woman hopes to gain/contribute or discuss in future meetings. Hope everyone can make it for some sangria and some Sexy conversation!!! 4) New Invitees: I've added Rebecca & Sabine to join us. So please include them in your emails. They're 2 really awesome girls with great head on their shoulders, mucho pizzaz & style, fab ideas and great life experiences... amongst other things. So Welcome to you both, look forward to seeing you soon.:) THAT'S IT FOR ME TODAY! Can't wait to go golfing. At least this time, my brother won't be there to hit me in the head with his golf club like he did 12 years ago, the bastard! ;) Anne-Sophie. |

You've hardly changed. Well, I'd like to extend an invitation to the group to come to my home, perhaps for our June 22nd meeting? I'd be happy to make sangria for everyone and come up with a topic as well. We can stay here for a couple of hours and then head out, depending on what everyone wants to do. Vincent has no problem making himself scarce for the evening :) We can discuss it at tomorrow's meeting! See you then. xo Apryl |

3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 20,June,2004 | Hey ladies! I just wanted to post a link to a website that contains a lot of discussion on 'The L Word'.

3,538,434 | female | 25 | Student | Leo | 18,July,2004 | Salut à toutes! Hello! This tuesday, i would like to talk about sports. Not like the guys tho, unless you want to. Personally, I like to keep my body busy with loads of activities (walk, blade, cycle, run, swim, softball, yoga, etc..) Keeps it and my brain happy. i thought it would be cool to talk about how we all compose with the daily realitiy of physical activity, what makes us feel good and why. Since we`re talking about that and since I LOVE gelato, what do you say we all get some ice cream, have a chat while we`re there and then decide if we want to just go for a walk after that or if it`s crappy, we`ll relocate to an indoor location, maybe the Manx or the Pump. So we`ll meet up at PURE GELATO on Elgin Street. I`ll have my cell if need be: 371-6352 @ 7:30 for ice cream, and probably move out of there by about 8:15 @ the latest. See you then! Don`t wear lipschtick, we're licking some ice cream..... Anne-Sophie. |
4,286,349 | male | 25 | Non-Profit | Capricorn | 19,August,2004 | My name is Greg and this is my story. After you read this, you'll understand why everybody thinks I'm a big, fat loser. I grew up in Pacifica surfing on the beach with my ten foot woody at the tender age of five.Shaka Brah!! Once I got bumped by a great white!!!But I fought it off with a piece of drift wood nearby. I then moved to Hayward. And shortly after I went on a hunting trip with my father and I got struck by lighting but don't ask my mom about it because shes' too traumatized to speak about it. Damn that hurt!! I have had a lot of interesting jobs since then. While I was attending Tennyson High School I drove a hurse. I would like to think of it as a morbidly fascinating job.I became temporarily unemployed. Perhaps it was because of my late night mung jumping fetish.I then became a bouncer in San Francisco but the gay men kept beating me up.So I finally figured I had enough of the exotic jobs and I put in an application at my local Radio Shack.But that turned out to be worse because of all the fighting in the store. I beat up more people there then I did working at the club in San Francisco.All of the stress at the Radio Shack job made my heart problems get worse and I had to jab a heart needle into my chest with my last ounce of strength.And then!!!And no more and then!!!Since I wasn't picking up any hot babes at the local Radio Shack I decided to quit my job and start batting for the other team. I guess all those gay clubs rubbed me the right way.I met this really tall dark and handsome boy with a stubbly chin named Orlando. That summer we kissed and I knew at that moment I had made the transition from a boy to man hood. As he fondled my supple man breasts on the grassy knoll, I knew he was Mr. Right. Just as I was about to reach Home Base (hee hee), my dad called to tell me to take out the trash. Due to my homophobic father, I could no longer see Orlando and I had to settle for a green dildo and a large container of vaseline. During the summer, I took a trip to Reno for Hot August Nights. I rode a Harley along with some of my friends, who also took their bikes. You wouldn't believe how many hot chicks couldn't get enough of me! I have had a couple of jobs since then but my freak accidents always land me back into enemployment.One day I met the perfect girl she looked like me, she smelled like me, and she also could never keep a job like me.What a coincidence she had the same freak accidents as me.Its twelve 'o' clock i love you the most im in love with you most and you're the cutest.Im in love so much that my dick is glowing like a glaze donut.And beacuse I live with my parents I will never have to work again.This is great they even said they would buy me a house in Woodchuck. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | I have this love hate relationship with Solitaire. You know, that funny little card game that has come with windows since the dawn of time, or the dawn of windows, those two always seem to blur for me. Anyway. I play it way to much. My second semester in a Canadian High school is boring, on an academic level at least, I get maybe one or two pieces of homework every other week, its ridiculous, in England, you get a piece of homework each class, everyother day, and there's like, six classes a day. Damn you relaxed Canadians, I love you all. So I have a lot of spare time, I waste it away by getting frustrated at solitaire, listening to music, talking to my friends and writing in the book. But always with the solitaire, it just keeps coming back, I don't even remember opening it, but I always find myself halfway through a game missing an Ace with no way to get to it, its stupid. And of course, if I'm asked to do anything out side of the pit of despair that is my room, I have to finish the game of solitaire I'm playing, and if I can't win that one, I have to keep playing till I do. I don't get much sleep. Damn you Microsoft |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | You fear what's behind the door, He's passed out on the floor, Needle in his arm, Blood on his chest. He really doesn't look his best. Slowly coming to realize, What you saw before was just a cheap disguise, And for a second, You wouldn't mind joining him on the floor, And imagination dies a little more. That's an even earlier one, I'm not going to post anything in any type of chronological order for a while, until I run out of back logs. I'm just going to go through and post what I still like the look of. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Failure to see, Inability to be, You are a guiding light for me. Dying inside, Trying to hide, How you make me feel. Yeah, thats one from a few weeks back, front page of the book when I first got it. I find it kinda cheesy, but it flows nice, so I thought it would be nice to post. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | I mean, seriously, I have my own webspace with access to my friend's free home grown blogger, why the hell am I using this google thing? maybe its because nobody knows this is here, and I'll just use this as an updatable spot for my work, which is mainly poetry of some sort. It's funny, I don't even know what to call what I write, I just refer to it as the writings. I named my earlier works 'The Art of Rambling' or AoR for short, so that's where the blog title comes from. The book I write in is just some random 300 page A4 notebook on which I have pasted a biohazard symbol, not many of my friends bother to ask what I'm writing, when I don't respond they just assume its a journal of some sort. If you know me, kudos for finding this, and I hope that what I post here gives you a lovely insight to my mind, If you don't know me, feel free to comment. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Clearly breathing but not alive, In this poor excuse for a show tune, Seething desires behind clockwork fires, made by people who just don't care. As the smoke is never ending, in the darkness of our minds, The light here is forever fleeting, and we can never see the skies. If anybody ever cared, I don't title these things when I write them, I give them titles when I post. Slowly, but surly, I'm going to run out of these crappy little writings to post, and then I'll have to talk. Gladly, I don't have a life, so I can't really talk about that, but I'm sure something interesting will present itself for me to talk about. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Even though your brain seems scarred, And kept behind ageless bars, For solitary is just to good for you. The thoughts that bounce around that cage And keep you in a constant rage, You never even stopped to wonder, where in hell you were. Though peices of your minds desire, wander alone amongst the fire, that burns around the clock through a window in your head. Waves upon your shattered dreams, Where fear lies in between the seams Where reality is begining to come undone. That's an old one, but it's one of my favorites. Seemingly odd that nobody reads this. Well, maybe the crazy friend. I wodner if I should start linking people. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Walking through the downtown of your brain, Looking for the store of your dreams, Where the last peice of your sanity is for sale, And you smile over the counter As I charge it to my heart. I walked down the highstreet, Sign posted with your fears, A car that was our friendship just hit a baby deer, The cries are those from your childhood, I tried to help as much as I could. But the cackle of the driver eminates from the hood. I reach my apartment, Located in your eyes, Today was a grey day, And grey days I dispise, A sign in the window, Of the window of your smile, Out of my mind, back in five minutes. I'm told that one was really good. Of course, I don't believe anybody who says any of this is good. I wrote it in 5 minutes whilst talking over MSN, I don't even have a hard copy, it's just sitting there in my chatlogs. The crazy friend who says I can sing constantly tells me I should write music and turn these things into songs. I told you shes crazy. |
3,466,141 | male | 15 | Student | Sagittarius | 09,July,2004 | Bathe, in these flames, My thoughts, yours for keeping, Still my mind is slowly creeping, Out of my eyes, blind to the lies, That you're weaving, Slowly my mind keeps on creeping. Eat, taste my flesh, Chew my brain, don't stop feeding, That sound is my soul, gently weeping, Close, shut my ears, Deaf to screams, I'm not hearing, Thats still just my soul, gently weeping. Fly, turn away, You won't care, I'm still leaving. Thats just my anger, slowly seething. Run, get away, I have gone, you stopped breathing, These are my words that you're reading. And you and I, We don't know why, It has to die, We have to try. So, havn't said anything for a while, life had a bit of an uppy downy type thing going for a few days back there, but I'm back on a constant level of bleh. The best of my few friends said that she liked my singing, I thought she was talking to someone else at the time. Im going to have to put a stop to that, probably over lots of cups of coffee that I have to learn to like, stupid caffine junkie canadians. |

You are here, reading these very words, for a reason, known only to yourself. But you must ask yourself, what lasting effect will this collection of works have on you? Time shall tell. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 22,August,2004 | As senior year approaches, I've been thinking a lot about how I stack up against my peers in terms of maturity. Its hard to say where I stand because in certain areas it seems like I'm ahead of the game but, as I'm my own worst critic, I know that deep down I'm a kid. Not all that kid at heart kind of crap. I'm a kid. As you know from my profile and previous posts, I very much enjoy playground games like dodgeball and kickball. That's okay. you may say, those are actually becoming hip again. No, I think I like them at a different level than the twentysomethings who have founded those leagues. To illustrate my point, I will tell you, the faceless and nameless, that I still am tempted to buy G.I. Joes. Very tempted. When I was at Target reserving my limited edition of Halo 2 as I said yesterday, I wandered done the toy aisle. Not to reminisce. To see what they had in the way of my favorite action figures. I was pleasantly surprised. Besides vehicles, they had figures in two packs for seven bucks and three packs for nine. There was a Cobra three pack and I probably would have bought it if I didn't already have the Cobra Commander. I pulled myself away with my last vestige of dignity (I was admiring them alongside a six-year-old) and left to find my mom and youngest brother. But today, at Fred Meyer's it came at me again. I even avoided the toy department in fear of another test of willpower, but Satan had other plans. Browsing the school supplies, waiting for my the same brother, I spied a discount table. Bored, I went over to it. There was my second temptation. A Cobra plane. That converted to a hydrofoil. On sale. As I have neither a plane or boat for the bad guys, this almost proved to great for me to overcome. But after almost three minutes of indecision, I somehow stopped myself and left. But I fear the third temptation, my friends. Even as I write this I am choking down regret that I did not purchase these infantile delights. I am growing weak. I fear I cannot leave the house lest I revert back to my seven year old self. And the rationalizer in my wants to ask you, am I so wrong? Is what I desire so bad? Tell me your opinion of my plight, dear reader. I feel so alone. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 21,August,2004 | I realized today that I am an addict to Minesweeper. How did I realize this, when it's so hard for addicts to admit their problems? Even addicts have to admit that one is addicted when one sees the little Minesweeper numbers even when one has his/her eyes closed and is not looking at a computer screen. Yes, it is painful for me to say, especially here among such esteemed colleagues, but perhaps ridicule is the medicine I need to help me stay on the road to recovery. And while I think about it, there are worse addictions...like to narcotics, opiates, hallucinogens, inhalents, Altoids, bad music, Fabio, toasters, etc. That's my news for the moment. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 21,August,2004 | ...and there was something strangely refreshing about it. I think that just like the green leafy things that grow around my house, we all need a little water to fall on us and soak us sometimes. Not that we'd die without it, but then, those plants won't die either. But just that it helps us to reach a higher plane of health, some plateu from which we can stand and scream into the gray falling skys 'I am alive! I am alive! I may be soaking wet, but I am alive!' before we realize the entire church is now staring at us. A weird thing about rain is how much it changes things. I mean, its just a little bit of water, right? We drink tons of water every day. But once a tad bit of it starts falling on us, people totally freak out. They drive really slowly, they run around screaming as they fail to locate their cars, they fight over strange little sticks with canvas, and some of them even curse loudly as their attached furry headcovering are drenched through. (Something about messing up their style. I fail to grasp it.) People who would normally be quite glad to lay on a hillside with me and chat the day away are now flabbergasted at the suggestion. What's their problem, anyways? We're 80% water to begin with...how's a little more gonna hurt? The most depressing thing about rain, though (well, the only depressing thing about rain) is that it covers up the stars. My nightly glimpses into the black and starlit heavens has been a favorite time of mine to contemplate how truely insignificant that little peon is who decided to cut me off today and ended up almost causing a major accident. After all, what does it really matter if i jumped out of my speeding hunk of metal, holding another peice of metal alloy, and began hitting both a large bit of metal and some carbon based object that was significantly softer than the large hunk of metal? It really doesn't, does it? Its times like these when I can convince myself that perhaps those other bits of carbon carrying much smaller peices of metal will agree with me and decided not to use their peices of metal to embed even smaller peices of metal into my carbon. I find this view extremely relaxing. But without the stars, its utterly impossible to obtain. I did decide on the rules to my new sport, though. Its called 'Shirt Basketball'. Dunks (anything involving contact between either of your hands/digits and any part of the target) are worth one point. This includes shots where you pull the shirt away from the target's body in order to make the shot possible. Free Throws, shots where the target intentionally invites a shot after stopping and pulling their own shirt forward to enable the shot to be made, are also worth one point, unless they are made from four point distance, in which case it is worth three. Here's where things get tricky. Because of the wide variety of shirts worn by various targets, and differing amounts of room between said shirt and the target (caused by non-standard shirt types, larger-than-average amounts of cleavage, skintight verse baggy shirts, etc.) the points differ based on both difficulty and distance. Standard scoring works as such: within five feet of the target is worth two points. Outside of five feet is worth four. Mulitpliers are added based on the difficulty of the shot. Contestants determine the value of each target (and their attached shirt) before competition begins. Both must agree on the value before taking a shot. In the event a shot is made before a value is agreed upon, an arbitrary third party is asked to set a fair value. When lacking a third party, the opponent is allowed to pick a fair value. The maximum multiplier for normal circumstances is ten times the normal point value, with the rare exception of a shot being made on a target wearing only a bra (or appropriate equivelent) which garners a twentyfive times bonus, and a shot made on a completely bare target, which garners a hunderd times bonus along with a wack across the back of the head for being dumb enough to waste such a valuable opportunity. Additional multipliers are added based on circumstances, such as backwards, no look (eyes shut), hook shots, off hand shots, using an unusual object (such as a computer monitor), using a difficult object (something that doesn't easily fit, also like a computer monitor or even something simpler like a basketball), using an awkward object (ice that the target cannot easily retreive), cauing the target to remove clothing to fetch the object, and evoking a positive reaction from the target (such as an invitation to retireve the object yourself). Points are lost for injuring the object, evoking a negative reaction (such as a bitch slap or forced removal from a house or resteraunt), or shooting on a target in a dangerous situation (such as the driver of a vehicle). It is also not reccomended to shoot on targets with which one is not familiar, or which one is not signifantly faster than. I predict Shirt Basketball will make it to the Olympics by 2020. Only you, my valiant readers can help make this dream a reality. Go forth and throw things down shirts, men! Do it for justice, for honor, and for the American Dream: to earn money without doing any real work! |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 21,August,2004 | I'm starting a weekly column here. I'll call it Ben Questions the Billions. Question 1: Is the only difference between a cult and a religion numerical? |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 20,August,2004 | Just reserved Halo 2. Supposed to be out November 9th. Hopefully by then I'll be all done with college applications because I'm pretty sure I'm doing early action (or decision I don't know which is the non-binding one) at every place I apply. Then I will have time to play the most anticipated game of alltime. In other news, all the horsemen and assorted other cool kids from Jesuit went to Pioneer Courthouse Square to see The Goonies yesterday. Turnout was great, the crowd ran the gamut from the hiphop crowd to goths. All united by loving the phrase 'hey you guys.' Proving The Goonies is one of the greatest movies of alltime. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 20,August,2004 | The four horsemen are assembled and the charge will begin. The charge to retake the internet from the disgusting hands of the pornographers and return to where it rightfully belongs, the hands of teenage boys. Beginning today, the horsemen will begin the most difficult, the most dangerous task ever placed upon any humans in history of mankind. We will build up our readership, convincing people worldwide that our blog is more interesting than porn. They will fight us, sending hitwomen with huge breasts after us (they will be easy to spot, beautiful women don't associate with the horsemen), but we will persevere. One day, one glorious day, our site will have more visitors than all the porn in all the world. Impossible, you say. We don't listen to such words here. We horsemen believe in the the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. It eluded us then, but that's no matter-- Tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther.... And one fine morning--- So we beat on, boats against the current borne back ceaselessly into the past. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 19,August,2004 | So this morning, I kinda forgot that I had no football today. Which isn't very surpising, since I have it like every day except sunday for the next 80 months. Or something. But so I not only forgot that I had no football, but also forgot what time the football I didn't have was at. This was an unbearable state of affairs, I assure you. I attempted a mad dash up the stairs only to be brought startlingly short by the fact that my legs didn't want to listen to me. They decided to listen to someone else, someone completely unrelated to me and also quite invisible, who told them their time would be much better spent by spasming out. After all, what legs wouldn't want to just sorta quiver on the floor instead of actually sprinting? This bodily mutany forced me to rely upon my trusty (and much more loyal) arms for my transportation out of my basement lair. All went well until I came to the door. Ever tried opening a door at the top of some stairs without being able to use your legs? It was quite tricky...in the end, I propped myself against it, leaned hard, then managed to stroke the handle enough for it to somehow pop open. Victory at last! But with only one small problem...my football schedule is on the fridge. High up on the fridge. At what is normally eye level for my towering 6'2' frame. Having your eyes reduced to midgethood (at only 6' off the ground, I was small even for one of the little people) makes it rather difficult to read things on the fridge 6 feet above your head. Well, reading things 6 feet above your head on the fridge when they were made in point 12 font is always hard, its just most people don't have 12 foot fridges with football schedules on them, so I don't run into this problem every day. Again, my brilliant mind came to the rescue. STOOLS! No, not the kind you leave in the toilette or some turncoat mafia member (both of which have about the same smell, slimy skin, and high value on the street) but the wooden kind you normally would perch upon to dine at my luxerious countertop in the kitchen. With two of them placed the appropriate distance apart, I was easily able to lift myself up onto a sitting position upon a third. It was kinda like doing a really monsterous dip, only with dogs staring in shock and my legs still doing their own little dance. From this high and mighty vantage point I was shocked to assertain that practice had started a good hour ago. But wait, my mind screamed, today could not be the 23rd! It simply couldn't! I hadn't watched Casablanca yet, and I absolutely knew it was due by the 23rd! Faced with this cold, unforgiving logic, my brain was forced to admit, that no, today probably wasn't the 23rd. Furthermore, the phoney thing clearly said it was the 20th. But that couldn't be either, could it? There was no football practice on the 20th...and if there was no practice, there was no reason for my legs to be so badly misbehaving, nor for me to have to crawl upstairs to check when practice started. At this point, my legs decided the invisible stranger had led them astray from the True Path which is a body part's only real hope to enter the Divine Heaven that is Sitting On A Lazy Boy With A Giant Glass Of Iced Lemonade Watching Bond Movie And Eating Ribs. Of course, my legs have never (and if I have any say in it, WILL never) eaten a rib, drunk lemonade, or even seen James Bond. However, they understand that this is a blissful state, and they certainly enjoy sitting in a Lazy Boy more than running. This leads them to beleive that this Divine Heaven must be a nice place to be, and hey, everyone else seems excited about it, so why shouldn't they? This allowed me to return my arms to their normal role of hanging at my sides and occasionally turning doornobs and reaching for remotes and lightswitches. I decided the ordeal meant my entire body deserved a dip in the Semi-Divine Heaven that is a Warm Bath With Lots Of Bubbles And Soothing Music And Smelling Salts. Though I was pretty sure I was out of smelling salts, I figured I could fake my nose out with with some fragrant bubble stuff. Or maybe a nice candle. I again had to face a flight of stairs to obtain my goal, but for this one I could asend as humans do, and not the humans who have paralyzing back injuries and no elevators or kind people to carry them. However, as I walked past my front door, I looked out the window. Through that window, I could see inside my car. And through that window letting me see inside my car, I could see throught the window going out of my car. And throught that window going out of my car I could see into my neighbor's window across the street. And through THAT window across the street I beheld a strange sight indeed. For my 19 year old blonde streetmate was dancing some sort of weird macarana-like dance. And here I thought she'd already left for college, or at least moved in with some 24 year old hippie. Wow. People really should shut their blinds once in a while. I'm not one to talk, though. There are no blinds on the glass door in my basement. And I love dancing around in my skivies down there. But no one's dumb enough to risk peering through MY windows. Are they? |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 19,August,2004 | urlLink But what *did* they want? |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 18,August,2004 | Could my fellow horsemen copy some of my interests? I keep clicking them and realizing that I'm alone... so alone... Don't tell me you don't like a good hunk of man-liver every once in a while. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 18,August,2004 | which took more guts than it really should've. See, usually I think of myself as someone who's not afraid of anything--who'll try anything once as long as there's a reasonable chance of survival. (It's not that I'm AFRAID of dying, it's more that I don't want to inconvenience God by making Him resurrect me so I can be Ultimate King of All That Surrounds Me.) Anyway, I call, heart beating audibly. Ring... ring... then, '...WHAT?' In this age of caller ID, what can I conclude but that I really, really pissed her off, just by calling? But I pretend that all is not lost. 'Uh, hey there! How's it going?' And it isn't! 'OH! Ken! Sorry, I thought you were my mom!' Hmmmmm. One more reason to earn that manly Eagle Scout award. If this supernatural maternal reminder didn't happen so often, it wouldn't bother me that much, but... I mean, I wasn't even planning on being a stay-at-home DAD, let alone Mom. But it's okay. Now I'm waiting for her to call back, thinking, 'Hey, it could have gone worse,' then asking myself, 'Why do you even care?' Honestly, I don't know. Just don't know. School hasn't started yet and I haven't seen her for over two months. Shouldn't that have been cathartic? So far it's been as cathartic as being anally probed by extraterrestrials that only measure the charge capacity of your nether regions--with a cattle prod. BZZZZZZT! Every day. That prod doesn't even fit (please don't think about that). And I'm left where I used to be--thinking, 'boy, I wish I was over this,' and then thinking, 'wait, no, what I really want is for everything to work out,' and then, 'man, I could really use some kind of legal nerve stimulant so I can stop being tired all the time.' Hey, as long as it's not a cattle prod. It might damage the cell phone--and then how would she call back? |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 18,August,2004 | The anticipation for Ken's first post is killing me. If you've read his 'about me' you know its going to fucking rock. I'm sure he's putting the finishing touches on it as I type. Meanwhile, John participating in conditioning week for football, so we're going to give his absence the benefit of the doubt. So it looks like Miguel is the only horseman who pulled through for me. He did a great job; I can't wait for another post. |

4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 18,August,2004 | For the last two weeks I have really been looking forward to this weekend because there is a dodgeball tournament at a high school near my house. Dodgeball is my favorite sport and I was brimming with anticipation over assembling and leading a team of friends into such a glorious competition. As I was ironing out the details I clicked on the waiver because I had to read it. No one over 18. I am 18 in less than a month. Their unequitable line in the sand crushed my soul, telling me I am not worthy to play in their league. I'll tell you what. They will rue the day they excluded me. I will train harder than anyone has ever trained for anything. I will make Rocky's training in Siberia in Rocky IV seem like a walk in the park. And next year, when they come back to Portland from their pansy headquarters in Los Angeles, I will tear the Beaver Ball trophy from their well moistuized hands and my triumph will be sung throughout the ages by all people of all walks of life who need the inspiration of heroes to continue their own heroic existence. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 17,August,2004 | I would normally put this in the comments section, but my esteemed colleague forgot to utilize that tool. From my brief study of Sigmund Freud, I have formulated a belief that the real object of the punk anger is their small genitalia. Besides the obvious implications that go with that territoty there is also a reduced testosterone level which prevents said punks from being successful at manly endeavors such as sports. This coupled with their subpar intelligence leaves them little option but 'reject' the society that in fact rejected them first. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 17,August,2004 | Me being me, take my posts with a grain of salt. I do not mean to offend. Most people. It pisses me off how many people are posers and cannot accept it. I'm a poser. I live with this knowledge. I consider it one of the many marks that I, too, am human and possess original sin. But I suffer through the insufficiency. But man, some people... For instance, it has come to my attention that to be a punk you must fulfill a minimum three requirements: 1) Be angry. It doesn't matter what you're angry at. But you must have a perpetual simmering rage in the bowels of your soul, stewing and propelling you to speak out. Express your anger with everyone, from the people who you deem responsible to the random passerby who will raise an eyebrow and probably regard you with disdain. Note that this in turn will make you angry at the random passerby as well, because they're only kindling the source of your anger. The source of your anger does not matter. It can change at any time for any reason if necessary to keep it going...or just because you feel like it. 2) Be ugly. It is vital to the punk mindset to go against everything that is natural to the human body. Dying one's hair many colors one cannot find in any of the nooks and crannies of nature is heartily recommended. Do this frequently. Also, dessacrate the human body as much as possible with tatooes spreading across from the tips of your fingers to the small of your back to the metatarsal area. Oh, not to mention body piercings. How better to express the anger you have against your father, your life, the Man, the cat next door, and your personal hygiene appliances than by showing that you don't care what they think? And body piercings are a great way to do that. Pierce several parts of your body, be creative, and remember: if you don't go through the metal detectors at least five times, you are not carrying enough representation of your flesh mutilation. 3) This one kind of leads into the other two. Be rebellious. As with anger, it does not matter. Do not accept anything except your own beliefs to be true. Your beliefs consist of everyone else being judgmental. And that life is unfair. You should never conform. Ever. In fact, if you are reading this now, you are submitting to corporate America by paying your electric bill or even just using a computer. Dell is laughing at you, and dead punk artists are rolling in their graves. Very few self-proclaimed 'punks' have ever really fulfilled these requirements. ... The actual point of this post was that I hate Good Charlotte, who whines about everything in life even though they have millions of dollars, are now LIVING the lifestyles of the rich and the famous, whine about not wanting a 9-5 and how the lead singer's dad is an asshole in approximately 40 of their 41 songs....yeah. Sorry to bash on Good Charlotte fans...but if that last paragraph offended you, bite me. Actually, the only people I hold in any remote form of disdain are the actual hardcore punks. Granted I shouldn't judge folks before I know them...but always being wrong is kind of a deterrent from talking to people. So in reality, I like posers more. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 17,August,2004 | As you can see, Ken has joined and Mike and John will soon follow. And a golden age will begin. We will turn a corner. We will believe in science. We'll work just as hard for your jobs as we work for our own. Terrorism will lose and we will win because the future doesn't belong to fear, it belongs to hope. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 17,August,2004 | This blog has had technical difficulties for the past few days, but they are now sorted out so we shall soon have two of the three new bloggers posting. Which brings me to reveal something to you. Why, you may ask, did this moron post by himself on this blog until he had it all figured out? It seems like the gimmick is that there are four equally important bloggers and by doing this he just created an antipathy towards him by posting subpar material. Well you would be correct. I am a dumbass. I wanted to have a few posts grounded in to assert my feeble personality before my friends amaze you with theirs. I envisioned my posts as something endearing, like watching a newborn foal struggling to walk. But it was probably just pathetic, like a foal born with three legs struggling to walk, while you know it never will. |

4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 13,August,2004 | I recently got a brand new kickball. I bought one from Target about two weeks ago. I really liked it. My brother and I took it in the street in front of my house. He pitched it to me. I kicked it farther than I have ever kicked a kickball in my life. Once we retrieved it I decided to be safe, take it inside, and wait until my next kickball game to experience the ecstasy of kicking this ball. But wait. My brother was inside our yard. I decided to see how far it would drop kick. Enormous mistake. I am not a good drop kicker under the best of circumstances and here I was trying to kick super hard. The kick sucked and it rolled right into my neighbor's only rose bush. A terrible thing. Now, I know there are a lot of awful things in our world, things a billion times worse than losing a stupid kickball. But, since I do not possess an incredible emotional maturity, I mourned its passing. This mopiness lasted a week. The day we were set to go camping (which I did not want to do), I was surprised by a new ball. A better ball. One that came in a box like a basketball. And cost twice as much. It is a wonderful ball. I love it. Don't judge me. |
4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 12,August,2004 | Not about the music. About the politics. Shame on me but I have to write this while its still fresh in my mind. I went to the Kerry rally at Waterfront Park. I downloaded the tickets last night and went with my dad this morning. The gates opened at 10:00 and he was supposed to arrive about 12:15 so I figured I would get there at about 10:30, wait at the gate, and do a crossword for two hours. I knew a lot of people would be there, but I was not prepared for this. We got there on schedule but there were lines everywhere. We were at the back of a line the stretched for at least a quarter mile. I thought it must be for people who didn't have real tickets. (If you haven't figured out by now, I'm a dumbass.) So we crossed the street and found a much shorter line but which turned out to be for vets. When we got back to the original line, the end was on the opposite side of the builiding we were at originally. While waiting there were dozens of solicitors for various causes. And protesters. But not very many. A couple of guys had the usual Jesus Saves From Hell stuff and were telling us to repent from our wicked ways. One was a real loudmouth and said some of the most stupid but funniest things I have ever heard. One particularly trifecta of irony was the fact that his sign said Bush defends America and had pictures of various military icons, then he said Bush was intelligent enough to stay out of Vietnam, just like him (the speaker), and then he went on to talk about how they were both manly men and thats why liberal women didn't like them. After this an astute citizen asked him if he knew Bush was a cheerleader in college. Silence. Then he said 'Really?' Everyone said yes and then the moron mumbled that he wasn't really into politics. He was a goldmine. It took about an hour and a half to go the quarter mile and by the time we were at the verge of the security checkpoint the police decided that the remaining thousands would be so far away they couldn't do anything even if they wanted to. They didn't even check the tickets. We ended up, after a fire marshal fence was torn down, about three football fields away from the stage and Jon Bon Jovi. He was okay, had a lot of emotion and some intelligent things to say. Then the usual lame people that nobody cares about started talking and it got really boring until six buses came off the bridge behind us and drove to the side of the rally. Everyone got really excited but nothing happened. More talking. Then three (more?) buses drove by and the buzz was back. Finally, squinting I could see him emerge on stage. He shook hands, reminding the unlucky majority of the over 30,000 how far away we were. Then his wife spoke. For a long time. She was nice but spoke slowly, almost casually and kind of repeat repeated herself. Then Jim Rassman came on and was pretty good. But the crowd was yearning for Kerry. And he delivered. And it wasn't just his acceptance speech from the convention. He had particulars. Plans that made a lot of sense. It was great. Unfortunately I had to leave early to get to work. I only missed about 3 minutes. I'm glad I went. I'm sorry that was so long. Believe it or not, but it was edited for length. I left a lot of good stuff out. |

4,262,796 | male | 17 | indUnk | Aquarius | 12,August,2004 | Spock would be a Democrat. I am not a Trekkie but I have seen a few episodes and movies and the phrase 'The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.' stuck out in my liberal mind. Republicans believe in individual responsibility, and I am all for that, but a society like ours will always have people who for a myriad of reasons cannot support themselves without considerable help. And if that requires taxing the billionaire citizens of our country (there are more than you think) a few percentage points more, than Spock and I would say it is the right thing for us and the exorbitantly wealthy to do. No more political articles for a week. I apologize. |
