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*

Birthday Thanks
Thanks to Mystic Momma (from the full moon swaps community) for her lovely birthday care package! There were beads, a goddess charm and these skull bone beads, a box of chocolates and a cute bear pin. Very sweet of you, thank you! It was definitely a nice thing to find in my mailbox today.

Also a belated thanks to an unknown friend who sent two mix cd's - one labeled, "The Boys" and the other, "The Girls." She wrote an amazingly sweet letter as well. I tell you, it got me teary-eyed, it was so nice. It arrived the other day, I just totally forgot to post.

Thanks to all my friends who wished me a happy birthday on their blogs, in my journal and via email yesterday.


I also want to send some return birthday wishes to Luka who is catching up to my old lady status - she's 28 today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUKA!


(I'll post an actual update later.)

Today is My Birthday!
I thought in honor of my 29th birthday, I'd show everyone some amusing photos of myself as a youngester. I snagged these from my mom when I saw her last week. I don't have a scanner but I was able to photograph them decently enough. Keep in mind of course though that they're old film so the color isn't always the greatest. (I did try to brighten them up a smidge for viewing though.)


Here's Baby M - complete with Freddy Bear. Freddy has been my life-long companion. My mom got him in a baby shower before I was born and he's been around every since. In fact, he still hangs out on my computer desk.



Next up is proof I have seen snow in my life. Here I am in my front yard in PA with a snowman I've built. I loved that fuzzy purple jacket! After over twenty years, it's hard to recall snow but these kind of photos still make me smile.



And last but not least, here is my dog Rocky and I in my backyard in PA. Rocky wasn't the brightest dog in the world but he had a tender heart and was a faithful friend. Sweet dog who loved being outside, roaming through the woods and most of all swimming.


How's that for memory lane? It's so funny because there's a point in your life where you're mortified of your baby pictures and then, somewhere along the way, there's another point where you're entertained by them and you post them on your journal for the whole world to see. Thought everyone might get a kick out of it. And it's funny to see yourself even so little.

Alright, well nothing on the plans for this afternoon. Love's boss is a jerk and he couldn't get the day off from work. My temp job ended yesterday and my poor mom is sick so I'm seeing her Thursday. Which means today, I'm just by myself at the apartment. (Love was pushing for me to go get a massage or something but it's just hard to justify spending that much money on myself. Not to mention, most places book that kind of thing in advance.) Tonight though, Love made reservations for dinner so we'll be eating at my favorite place - The Melting Pot. I get it once a year if I'm lucky, but it's so good, it's an expereince. That's later though. For now, I guess I'll just take it easy around here.

TTFN!

Dreading Tomorrow
I so just don't feel like going into work tomorrow. I mean, it's pretty much my last day (as in ever excluding some freak vacation coverage or something) and day two of training my replacement. It's absurdly knife-in-the-back depressing since the only reason it's not me in the job is my health. Can you say serious self-image and self-worth issues right now? *sighs* It just seems so pointless. Why even bother? My being there or not isn't going to change anything for me and it isn't suddenly going to make me have the job again. I think it's understandable why I don't feel like enduring it. I think most people would feel the same - wouldn't they...?

Of course, of all days, pretty much no matter what I can't not be there so if I wake up dead, I pretty much still have to go. Bah. I'm just really dreading the entire experience. I rather sit around tomorrow and eat chocolate and wallow in my deep, blue funk instead of fake smile and act like I don't mind.

Bah.
