Reminder...

There are people on the net that have nothing better to do with their time then be nasty to other people online. They post rude comments, spend hours a day talking about sites they hate so much, that they well, spend hours a day talking about them. (lame) They mock the owners and posters for their opinions and their right to free speech. They expect everyone to fit into their narrow-minded little world view or else they throw a temper tantrum.

To these people I say grow up.

Here's a bit of info people...the web is a HUGE place. If you don't like what I say here, or who I am, or what I do, or talk about, or what I look like, or the color of my hair, or whatever asinine thing you dwell on, go somewhere else. It's really, really easy. Honest. You just click the little "x" in the corner of your browser and *poof* the offending, big, mean and nasty site has disappeared.

I pay for this site. It's mine. That means I can use it for whatever the hell I want to. Don't like it if I'm bitching about something in my life? Oh fucking well. Go somewhere else. Think I'm stupid for expressing my thoughts? Too fucking bad, don't read them. Somewhere along the line, someone forgot this simple fact: Live and let live Don't like me, cool, fine, whatever, I don't care. This journal is NOT for you. It's for me. I'm not in it for popularity or fame or anything stupid like that. I write it because I need to write and express myself and get things out of my head sometimes. So read or don't, it doesn't matter, but don't waste my time (or yours) bitching about it.

*gets off soapbox*


Tooth Drive: I raised $550 of $850 I need for my dental work when the other shoe dropped. One of my teeth now needs a critical root canal - over $2,000 in costs. There's no way I can come up with this on my own in the next 2-3 months. So I need your help. Please consider using one of my links below. Pass my jewelry link along to others. Help spread the word. If I were able to get $10 from 200 people, I would be there. I don't think it's that much or that hard. But I need help. Thank you.

Library Love
Oh my gods, I love the library!

We finally got around to hitting my local library last night. And I re-discovered my love affair with it. I snagged a signed (signed!) Charles De Lint book (Handful of Coppers) and a Christopher Moore book (Fluke.) I also put like eight other books on hold that are coming from other branches. Including several hardcovers I've wanted to read but haven't had the cash for. Oh and the cataloge is online. So I just added a bunch to my booklist (from here at home! ) to remember for later. This way I can start working through some that have been on my amazon wishlist for a year or more! They also have dvds and cd's for checkout too! And just like the books, you can request movies or music from other branches. Hello food for the iPod!



The cataloge is so useful, interactive and just...useful! I really have to give it up to them, this is an amazing change from the last time I was at the library (two counties over) about ten years ago. Back then, they were just getting rid of the card cataloges and putting in monochromatic computers that were slow, irritating and a beast to work with. Nothing like this. Full interactivity from the branch or your own desk. It's just amazing. I love books and I read at least a novel a week so I'm in heaven having all these options right here, for free. It's just amazing.

Speaking of books, I'm thinking of putting together a master list of a bunch of books I have to sell. They're all in pristine condition, read once, non-smoker and no funky mold/mildew smell or mustiness to them. I'm thinking of selling them for a few bucks each. Maybe someone might want some for themselves or for the holidays. And of course, I can use the cash for the tooth fund. Thoughts? I don't want to use ebay or amazon since they charge too much. Think I'll have luck getting some sold just through friends and word-of-mouth?

I have a bunch of updates for PhoenixFire Designs to talk about but I'll save that for it's own entry. I've been a busy bee trying to get ready for the holidays. (And hopefully a holiday rush of orders!

TTFN.
