| | enigma | ] | I've been doing a lot of running around to try and get all this car shit straightened out and therefore haven't felt like I've had many days off of late because my days off have been spent running back and forth to jacksonville... Hopefully at this point all of that is taken care of... The good news is I found a new car... I got a 2010 Camry... It's nice... I must admit I'm quite happy with my purchase :)... In other news we bought the new ghostbusters game for the ps3 which is quite entertaining... Joe had to reload his wow because he was having some issues and as a result went through his wow screen shots that he had saved... he came across this one which I find quite humorous... ( screenshot )
Also here are some pics of the new car... ( newcar ) |

| [ | mood |
| | stressed | ] | So I work up eary today because my phone work me up and then I couldn't get back to sleep, so i dragged joe out of bed and we headed for Dunn, NC where USAA decided to take my broke ass car... I have a bunch of things I wanted to get out of the car... So I remembered the camera this time and snapped some pics... I also decided to go drive a new camry and decide if it's the car for me, as they totaled my poor corolla... Now all I have to do is wait on the insurance company and get some paper work done and hopefully by the end of next week I will have a new set of wheels, instead of this piece of shit mitisbishi galant I've been driving from the rental... So with no further a due I give you broke car pics...

| A Trying Week |
[May. 20th, 2009|03:54 am] |
| [ | mood |
| | sleepy | ] | This has been a week of many ups and downs... Feels like a little more downs that ups but you can decide for yourself... At the beginning of my week off from work (started the 12th) the air conditioner at my house broke and required fixing, which I tell you isn't cheap... My last day at work before being off for a while was full of drama and then I had to stay up all afternoon to finish some education... I took a day off to recover a little from work and prepare for the planned trip to washington DC... I hadn't been since I was little. So Joe and I decide to do some laundry before we went to bed only to determine half way through the process that the washer was now broken beyond repair. We ended up having to take our wet soapy clothes to the laundry mat to finish the laundry so we actually had clothes for the trip... The next day we headed to washington dc and spent 3 days there... it was fun though exhausting... I'll post some pics at the end... we got back sunday afternoon to greenville and decided to head to jacksonville on monday to see my folks... So we get up and head out the door... about 8 miles outside of kinston in bfe, a semi decided to pull out in front of me... I was going 65 at the time and therefore did not have enough room to stop... needless to say my car is smooshed, poor tadpole... Joe and I think that it will probably end up being totaled but no word yet... I'm stuck with a renal car for now... Everyone was okay but it sucks... Unfortunately I was so frazzled and stuck on the phone with insurance that I forgot to get a pic of the car or the semi... Least it wasn't my fault right :)... I miss my car already... but I may end up with a new car if it's totaled... I have also bought myself a new washer that will get here next week... this week needless to say has been a bit hard on the wallet and my nerves... now for some pics :)...

| [ | mood |
| | bitchy | ] | So it's snowing in greenville yet again... Joe's annoyed because he's suppose to take a lab practical today and may not get to go now making it difficult to make up... I spent the last few days in Jacksonville hanging out with my parents and trying to help take care of my mom after she had surgery... She's doing surprisingly well considering... I was much worse off after my surgery than she is... she's up and about just tired... I haven't been up to much of late other than working since I missed so many days being sick... I do have a confession to make... I've done something I never thought I'd give in and do... I've joined the numbers of wow... For the Horde... if you happen to be in bloodhoof and horde feel free to let me know... I will admit it's a game that's pretty fun to play with joe and travis... it's something for all of us to play together since other than rockband the console industry seems to think you should play online instead of have your friends over to play 4 player on the console... random question, what the fuck is twitter btw... that is all... hope everyone is well...also sam, for comic con you should revive e honda... that was an awsome easy costume... |

I've managed to catch myself a cold from hell and I feel like shit... other than that haven't been up to much... been playing on the computer a lot... keeping up with my shows... I'm excited about lost and hero's this season... I finally finished gilmore girls... I'm considering re watching dawsons creek right now but I haven't made up my mind... oh I also finished this season of stargate atlantis and am considering watching the new stargate movies that are you but I can't decide... also if any of you care there's a farscape comic out... I haven't read it yet but I definately intend to... that's basically it... not much really... hope you all are doing great... |

| | tuesdays gone - 'skinard | ] | while the rest of you were celebrating christmas with your families I was making time and a half at work :) However before that I spend about a week and a half in texas with my family which was a nice reprieve though a little longer than I would have liked... I didn't really do much in texas other than sit on my ass and play my psp a lot... I did find a nag champa candle that I got for Joe that he really liked... I also got a bigger comforter so joe and I no longer have to fight for the covers... Once I got back to greenville I went and purchased little big planet which I must admit is endlessly entertaining, especially with 4 players :)... and now I'm working on a stint of working 7 out of 8 days to "pay" (in time) for my vacation... I will actually be taking new years off this year as my niece will be around and I want to see her... and well honestly I'll like to spend it with Joe, yes I know a bit sappy... well that's my little update... I hope all of you are well, and had a merry christmas as well... Sam sorry I didn't reply to your text I was busy at work... Amara and Justin, sorry we didn't get to cross paths, I really wished it had worked out, but I hope you guys had a good time while in gvegas... |

| | Macross Frontier Sheryl Norm Song | ] | It occurs to me that I haven't made a post in forever... like right after dragon con in sept... It seems as though time has flown since then... I can't seem to keep track of the days lately... So I guess I'll go for the short summary... After Dragon con Amara and Justin were in town for a week... we ran around town a bit and took a trip to bushgardens which was really fun and totally exhausting... I'm wondering how some of the pics Amara took turned out... After that in the beginning of oct. Joe, my Dad, and I drove to texas and back in a week... I learned that week that driving straight from greenville to denton texas is a mistake especially when it's through the night... However I brought my big tv from my house back to greenville so now we have the big LCD in the living room and it's awsome... last week Joe, Travis, Matt, and I ventured to greensboro to see NIN... they were totally awsome... Also at somepoint a couple of weeks ago I bought a ps3 so I could take advantage of the bluerayness with the nice tv... it's awsome... It's also nice to be able to play games online for free... There are things good about the xbox 360 but in the end if you have a HDTV I think that the ps3 looks so much nicer... It's much more polished... So that's basically what I've been up to... There's been alot going on family wise for me as well, so that's taken a bit of my time... and by the way Yay Obama... anyway I can't think of anything else to type at the moment... if you'd like a better description of how dragon con was (with pics) or how the NIN concert was see Joe's journal (elenar77) as he's already typed out what I'd say and damnit I'm feeling lazy at this point :) |

| I'm losing faith, I can't believe this... |
[Sep. 28th, 2008|08:56 am] |
| [ | mood |
| | infuriated | ] | so I started a random conversation with a co-worker today that I assumed would end in agreement and was totally flabbergasted when it didn't... We were talking about thought crimes... I was like I don't think that people should be put in jail for thinking about murdering someone as they have committed no crime... and she was all like I think that would be great... I couldn't believe I was hearing this... and I was like, so you think it's okay to tell people what they are allowed to THINK... not do but THINK... and the worst part is that I suddenly realized that I'm probably part of the minority on this... Am I the only one here that see's bad things coming when someone tells me what I can and cannot think... anyone else here read or heard of 1984... not the year but the fucking book... I mean is that really where we're headed... It seems that more and more everyday I'm stuck having conversations with everyday people that are so consumed by fear that anything is okay if it "makes me safe"... is anyone ever really safe... I mean if you want to be safe build a bomb shelter and brick yourself in... you'll save me your stupidity and at the same time keep youself "safe"... I'm reminded of a saying I swear I use to hear quite a bit when I was young and I'm some how sure that the media wouldn't want to spread around right now... "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"... just a thought... there's nothing to fucking fear... the majority of it is fabricated... I don't watch cable anymore because it's all fear and propaganda... I can't take the lemming like devotion Americans seem to be showing towards fear and group think... what ever happened to think for yourself... another thing I heard a lot as a child... The fact that the more I get away from college the more I realize that "thinking" is not something people commonly do is so disheartening... I just can't understand... |

I'll have to make a long post later or link to joe's post because he's going to make one and will probably do a better job at it than me... anyway it was fun and totally exhausting and now I have to work for the next 4 days... but it was totally worth it... also Voltaire is awesome... |

I love this band on here called Kimya Dawson... been up way too long and the damn fan on the power supply to the computer is pissing me off... it's breaking... it occurs to me that I've never met a toby... sorry part of the song... Oddly enough someone at my work said that she thinks I'm like juno... I watched the movie and thought to myself I'm really not that cool or something like that... anyway, one week till dragon con... I'm excited... it'll be nice to get the hell out of here... that's all I've got for now I'm tired and am going to go listen to more music... |

I decided to take a random trip to Raleigh, which turned into just a random trip to knightsdale, today... I was up early and I figured what the hell so I grabbed joe and travis and drove... we found a game shop in knightsdale (we were looking for one) and got munchkin and then hunted down the Miami subs (which too way to much work since they changed all the roads)... We ordered some Miami subs (the boys were so excited) and then sat and played some munchkin for a bit... then since all goals of the trip were achieved and Raleigh people we know were busy and such we headed home... as for the night I'm thinking some new x-files movie and reading my book and who knows what else :)... |

| rambling thoughts... |
[Jul. 27th, 2008|06:54 am] |
| [ | mood |
| | thoughtful | ] |
| [ | music |
| | simple man - skinard | ] | I wonder why it is that people require priority in others lives to determine their worth... why is it that people seem to find it so hard to see beyond their own place in life... I mean I guess that's a two way street... why can't I find the perspective to get beyond my own place in life to make room for more, but maybe I just don't have that room... I use to think that I could make everyone in my life feel the most important... I could given each and every person that was important to me my all, and I'm beginning to realize that that's a bit naive... there isn't that much of me left to be honest and I now wonder, if you give your all to everyone, what makes those you love special... Because I strongly believe that the person you choose to be with in that manner needs to be set apart... I know most people would say that that thing is sex, but I say for most that's such a superficial answer you've been convinced of through much social conditioning amongst other things... I guess people need to be reminded that they matter and that I can understand... how are you to know I still think of you often, and miss you often if I don't tell you... but if you don't hear it doesn't make it fair to assume that I've moved on or don't think of you...
It's weird, so much has happened in the last year, I'm pretty sure I'm not the same person i was when I got to Tucson, let alone when i left... My perspective has shifted a lot, and honestly it's been a pretty hellacious year, between my own health (which I've only recently gotten back on track) and a lot of family stress (which I'm beginning to think won't be gone for some time) and of course my own wandering issues, not to mention job shifting... To those that actually read this know that most of you are quite dear to me (though I'm positive a choice few of you are unaware) and I'm sorry if my remaining aloof at this point in my life has caused you to question where you stand (for lack of a better way of putting it)... I'm not to sure where things go from here... I know that I'm getting a lot with me back on track, I'm in a place I've never been in my life, and aside from all the bullshit, am generally happy... which I must admit is a bit odd... I'm not sure what the point of all this rambling is but know that i love you all in one way or another... a birdie (we'll call her Amara) use to say often, "all you need is love" or even "god is love"... I believe this strongly and therefore leave with that thought in mind as I try and get some sleep before work... |
