Okay so it's been just a *little* while since I last posted:P I'm sorry, I won't offer any excuses, you know how it goes.

Things have kind of changed since I was last here. My work is having serious cut backs. At the end of the year I found out that they cut the tuition program, I couldn't go back to school in Jan. Then two weeks ago I found out I was being laid off. Today is my last day, I'm now unemployed and out of school. Peachy. I do have another job query that looks promising, so that may turn out good. Although school is out of the question right now.

I'm also debating whether to keep my domain and site up. It's about time to renew my contract and I just don't think I want to spend the money on it again. I'd love too keep them, but not knowing my future income prospects...that money could be used elsewhere. I haven't decided yet.

That's it for now, just a quick update:)

I got this in an e-mail...



>>>>>A United States Marine was attending some college courses between assignments. He had completed missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. One of the courses had a professor who was an avowed atheist and a member of the ACLU.

One day the professor shocked the class when he came in. He looked to the ceiling and flatly stated, "God, if you are real, then I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you exactly 15 minutes." The lecture room fell silent. You could hear a pin drop. Ten minutes wentby and the professor proclaimed, "Here I am God. I'm still waiting." It got down to the last couple of minutes when the Marine got out of his chair, went up to the professor, and cold-cocked him knocking him off the platform. The professor was out cold. The Marine went back to his seat and sat there, silently. The other students were shocked and stunned and sat there looking on in silence. The professor eventually came to, noticeably shaken, looked at the Marine and asked, "What the hell is the matter with you? Why did you do that?"

The Marine calmly replied, "God was too busy today protecting America's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid shit and act like an asshole. .So, He sent me."<<<<<

Better now:)


The state fair starts this Thursday... I wanna go! I had plans to go this Friday, but they've had a huge, fat, hairy monkey wrench thrown into them. Oh well. The fair will be going on for the next two weeks, so hopefully I can make it some other time. Although I really like to go in the first few days. That's when they have the rabbits and goats. I like the rabbits and goats. It's not the fair without the rabbits and goats:P

I'm also hungry. And bored. Which would be why I'm babbling on about *nothing*...

I got two kittens this past weekend! They're doing good, except they're having problems with the whole potty-in-the-litter-box thing. We're working on it, I don't think it will take too long, cats are generally pretty instinctive when it come to litter box training. I'll try to get some pictures of them up here soon:)

I'm in a bad mood. Bad bad bad bad bad mood. It's annoying. The mood. Everything is annoying.
Nothing is actually pissing me off, just annoying me. And the fact that nothing's pissing me off is annoying me. Go figure.

I'm bored to friggin' tears, that doesn't help. My hair's a mess, el stoopid-o here went to bed last night with wet hair and of course then it dries all funny and just looks stupid in the morning. I'm still tired despite sleeping the entire evening and night away. I overslept this morning. I had both my mother and father attempt to talk to me this morning (both know better than to talk to me in the morning). I don't have my car today. I'm hunrgy but don't feel like eating.

The part that's annoying me the most is I'm not sure why I'm so annoyed, I don't know who to blame.

Ugh.

I did it! I updated RiE's index page using html! Whoo-hoo:P In case you didn't know, I've never really known html, it's all gibberish to me. I've always used FrontPage or the like to build and maintain my websites. But in this case, I wanted to add some fanlistings I've joined and the only real time I have to do all that is at work (sounds odd, I know) and they don't have FrontPage. Soooo, I had to try to go in and write the code myself... and I did it. I'm so proud:P

I want to start writing again. I think I'm going to try to get back into it by doing a couple of drabbles, maybe that'll wake the muses up from their comas:P Whatcha think? Any suggestions for drabbles?

New look. Do we like?

Okay, school update as promised. There's really not too much to tell. I'm taking four classes this quarter: Architectural Drafting I, Introduction to Interior Design, Basic Mathematics, and Art Applications. I think I'm doing good in all of them, at least I'm comfortable in all of them. Math is a breeze, Art is "eh" (I have no artistic skills whatsoever, but the teacher is great), both drafting and intro are alright as long as I actually pay attention:P Lol, I try to pay attention, I do, but it's hard after a full work day to go in and listen to someone talk when you'd rather be out with your friends. This is me pouting.

I've only gotten one mid-term grade back, 100% in Intro to Interior Design. I'm pretty sure I aced the drafting one, and I take my math one tonight. There's no mid-term in art as there's no real "paper work" to it. When I get other grades I'll let you all know, but I'm thinking I'll be alright. Intro was the only one I was actually worried about.

That be it for now:) I'm off to look for something to do, slow day at work. Been awhile since I've done any quizzes...

I went and saw The Omen last weekend... Now, keep in mind I hate horror movies. They generally don't scare me too bad when I watch them, but I have a very, um... *active* imagination. Once the movie is over my imagination magnifies everything and I'm suddenly jumpy and paranoid about the stupidest things. Not only that, but I *hate* being scared. It is a feeling I do not enjoy. Hence why I don't watch horror movies. So, obviously I wasn't too overjoyed to be going to see The Omen, but my friends (who I haven't seen in awhile) wanted to go, so I agreed. Without giving anything away or ruining it, let me just say, it was not at all like I thought. I wasn't really expecting "boo!" kind of scary, I was thinking more along the lines of a psychological thriller more than anything. But it was neither "boo!" scary or "wtf?!" scary. It wasn't scary period. I didn't jump even once and apparently my imagination slept thru the whole thing, it didn't try to run away with me afterwards. Ugh. Waste of money.

I'll post on school once this first week is wrapped up. Still to early to really form an opinion:P

I'm out of the factory and into an office. I start school next week. I still work my part time job on the side. I have a boyfriend who is occupying a lot of my time (thats not a complaint). I'm not getting enough sleep because I'm out until all hours of the night. I haven't had a spare moment to even turn on my computer (typing this at work rigt now:P). And I'm loving every minute of it;) I won't disappear completely, I've made too many wonderful friends on the net to just abandon it all, but my appreances will be few and far between I imagine. But then again, ya never know ::shrug:: Anyway, just wanted to fill in anyone who cares;)

It's hotter than monkey balls!
