Idiots and their rising stupidity: Rant

[rant]Now...as a reader: how many read an authors note? Even just a scan just in case?   I know I do, just so I can see if they responded to my review or are going on hiatus or something of that nature.   Now...as a writer: how many of you update past Authors notes when something in your chapter is fixed or you're tired of hearing about something about that chapter that is needing to stay the way it is?   I do this, just so that people can know what's what.   Now, I have a fanfiction cal

Personal stuff and writing

Let's see, I am still a bit apathetic towards life, but I am fine.   I hope there is more opportunities in the coming year than what we have at the moment.   As for writing, Worlds of Difference took a lot of planning and ideas that never made it through my own personal story elements. So I have a lot of excess stuff from this story, which in essence has form the GA story   Love and Again     I just finished the 1st and 2nd installments.   The first deal with a simple story about

The Answer is I am a former Trekkie

hehe   People do not understand, how on one hand I can be so conservative?   But, How can I be so understanding of Liberal arguments?   People in real life and on GA wonder: how can you have those stands if you're a Republican and be conservative on certain issues?   Easy, the answer is: I'm a former trekkie or a 90's Trekkie.   Anyone, who embraced the ideas of Star Trek at one time of their life or another are affected by the ideas. I got into Star Trek Next Generation as a kid, so

Pictures (in case anyone was wondering) are worth a thousand words...

I recently took a bunch of pictures, and was sent a few others, so I decided to share.   This is the sunset at Huntington Beach last Friday night, where I cut my foot on some broken piece of ceramic some other considerate beach-goer left in the sand.   These are the going away flowers I got from my pals at my old store on my last day of work.   This is Tony's eye the day after Lacrosse Injury #342...   This is a picture of Donavon and his family.   This is something I saw tha

The road to hell...

We have all heard the passage. Can recite it blindly, but for those of you who may have been hiding under a rock. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.   I only ever had good intentions. I got confused along the way, but I had just gotten better. And I found myself in hell.   I dont want to be here, I want to be back where crap was good. I want to be back where "heya" gave me a smile.   I've been listening to a song it helped me get over my confusion, then friday night one line r

Vive resistance!

My computer has a virus in it. I've guessed this for a couple days, but my anti-virus software just clued in a couple hours ago. The two programs are apparently waging a lengthy and brutal war across my hard drive, if the computer's performance is anything to go by. I wonder how many spam emails it's managed to disseminate over the last few days?   Since I can't do anything complicated, I'll just write a long winded rambling blog. I hope the key logger is recording every tap I make for this. I

Update on me

Okay, so, yesterday was my b-day. I got all squeal happy and what not since some of my all time fav Fan fiction authors wrote me b-day fics and a lot of people here and a few other places wished me happy birthday.   Anyways, my ass has been planted in my seat due to my knee giving out as often as it can. Painful, let me tell you. So, I'm sitting here with my leg propped up to keep the pressure off my knee and doing a lot of writing and rping.   Morena, my writing partner, is in a lot of pain

Another satisfied lady...

I'm eating pretzels, in case you were wondering...   For anyone besides David who is interested, my friend's son was moved to a Children's Hospital about two and a half hours away from where they live and they are working with him to get his speech improved and said he can go home when he can walk in his own. I saw my friend today when I was delivering her two daughters to her that we had picked up at the airport, and she said his arm and leg still aren't working and that you have to coax him

Finals

Okay, I've officially come to the conclusion that finals suck. On the bright side after this next quarter I'll only have 7 more classes I have to take before I graduate, then it's no more working nights for me (I hope). I've also come to the conclusion that having to write papers and come up with powerpoint presentations for every single class I take is extremely annoying, thus I've decided that this next quarter around, I'll be coming up with my topics alot earlier then in the middle of the qua

An Author's log and explanations

It's kind of funny, I thought people would be commenting on my story after the two new chapters of Worlds of Difference 2 and 3 went live.   Well I guess I will explain some of the aspects in my story that people may have overlooked or had questions:   The allowance of 13 and 15 year olds to drink alcohol during ancient times was a true practice especially during long journeys. True it is against the law today in most parts of the world for underage drinking, but during the 7th century BC, m

All is Silent. And Yet ...

As I sit here in our living room, you could hardly call for more peace.   And yet ...   a distant dog bark,   a plane high overhead,   the sound of my hard disk in my study as it runs a backup,   our wind chimes moving softly,   the sensation that I can hear through my neck bones as I rotate my head,   the scraping of the hard edge of a low palm tree against the window and the flutter of that same leaf as a waft of wind hits it,   the

Time for a Story Update

Okay, just to tell you guys, yes, I'm alive, well and semi happy. I'm job hunting again, I'm not hacking up solid shit any more and I'm kinda hiding from my birthday that is coming up on the 26th. >> I dislike the birthday.   Anyways, this is a new list of stories, status', summaries and notes on what is happening with said stories. Mind you, if it's not on this site, the links provided will lead you to my profile page   One site: The Campers Nightmare: Summary: A camping trip goes f

The Green Pebble

After a couple of weeks during which I'd experienced unaccountable intellectual, emotional and moral growth, I made a discovery which I thought could make me incredibly rich. As I rotated the idea in my mind, it slowly dawned on me that I'd be so rich that I could walk out the door and might never need to see my beloved house again, should I choose not to.   Doing just that, in search of either intellectual excitement, or pampering, whichever I could find first, I left home leaving a trail o

This is NOT a recording

So I'm sitting at work minding my own business, doing my mountains of paperwork and pondering which report I want to work on next when the phone rings:   Me: "(Company name)" Guy: "Hi?" Me: "Hi" Guy: "Are you a recording?" Me: "Um, no" Guy: "Are you sure?" Me: "Yes, I'm sure." Guy: "Really?" Me: "Yeah, I'm a person." Guy: "Well you sound like a recording."       I've never had to argue to convince someone I wasn't an automated message before. I'm kinda hoping I'm not in

My demedification, John Paul and some rambling

Its nearing 3am and I can't sleep.   I went off the meds again. It's been two weeks since my "demedification" and there hasnt been any major disasters (yet) but I think Ill keep off them for a while. Why you ask? Because. I have this thing where when Im off the meds I can get a little - some might say - overwhelming? But when Im on the meds I feel nothing at all. Which was part of the reason I started to hurt myself, it was to feel something. Not really the commonly accepted explanation of cu

The Old Squaw

She was my great-great-grandmother. She came into the marriage with children having lost her first husband in the California Gold Rush; she bore a few more.   There were two tintypes; one of my great-great-grandfather and one of her. She looks very dark, too dark to have been out in the sun too long. Her features are very Native American. There is one family story that says she was half Indian. My grandfather said she was born in Norfolk, Virginia, but he never acknowledged her as being half I

San Francisco and Random Happiness

So I’m in a random good mood and decided to blog about it. Less bitching this time around, I promise! Well… I think so anyways.   California is in 2 weeks! 13 days and 6 hours until my flight leaves to be exact I honestly can’t wait that long. I want to go now and these last 2 weeks are going to drag by so slow. Every time I hear certain songs on the radio, it reminds me of it and I can’t get it out of my mind for a while. It’s irritating! Once I step on that plane though, all will be well in

I think I need a minute...

So, updates to the updates...   Old neighbor guy called us last night at 1:30am because he needed help... he had an accident cause he couldn't get up and get to the bathroom. We went over and helped him up and to the bathroom and then Rich helped him into clean pants and then I remade his makeshift bed in his recliner chair and put his other stuff in the washer and then we put him back to bed. I convinced him he should go to the hospital and we were going to take him today, but then his fair-

longest update ever... (my computer better not eat this before I can post it)

This entry is being made from my laptop that has pretty much made a full recovery, thanks to the AMAZING work done by Rich I didn't lose ANYTHING!! And... he got to reformat it like he's been nagging me to do...   I started at my new (old) store yesterday. It's okay, I remember a few faces, and they remember me (after 8 years). The store director is... okay. One girl I worked with at the last store said, "He's a different kind of bird," and almost everyone that asked, when I told then his nam
