This place has become impossible. Nothing to eat, freezing cold and now a madman on the prowl outside with eels.

oh man… 32 hours and 23 minutes until naonowrimo starts. actually, it’s 24 more minutes. because i can’t really start until after midnight. or can i? technically, does midnight on halloween count as Nov. 1st or Oct 31st? i do not know. i’m starting to think all my ideas suck and i am a huge failure before i begin. but it would appear, from looking at the forums, that i am not the only one.
do you think it’s a coincidence that i haven’t even been able to think of things to write in my blog? no. I’M FREEZING UP, PEOPLE!!

Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy – the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

i am so behind in all my internet distractions. behind in reading other people’s blog. behind in all my silly yahoo mail. behind in my nanowrimo forum posting. and definitely behind on my own blog.
there are a couple of important things to say. first; bullets are my best friends.
You are Trinity-
You are Trinity, from “The Matrix.”
Strong, beautiful- you epitomize the ultimate
heroine.

What Matrix Persona Are You?

please note, i did not cheat.
secondly: loon’s latest stephanie plum stickman story is up. hooray! i know she gives me writing credit. but really, it was just a really goofy chat session. and she did all the drawing and that’s where the real emotional core of the story lies. and loon is also trinity.
aaaaand…. kam’s blog is all pretty and updated and she’s posting! hooray kam! lisa should learn from you.
is that it? i think that’s it. my cold is still here. and it makes me all spacey. it’s hard to concentrate. is it time for stouffer’s frozen macaroni and cheese yet? please? can it be lunchtime.
speaking of food, happy ramadan! as we all know, ramadan is a time for fee to fast, so don’t go offering her halloween candy until after the sun sets. ramadan started on monday and lasts for a whole month. do you think that fee will get spacier as the month goes on?

I’m talking comics and you bring up chicks and romance.

hello from home. i’m sick. i stayed home today. i have a cold. i’m not one of those people you see on tv. the ones that usually have really really stressful jobs, like deep sea fisherman in alaska or kindergarten teacher. the ones who, in great pain rub their throats or put their fingers to their temple, to indicate that they are sick or in pain. but they can’t rest. no, sir… they can’t give in. so they take a pill. and all the sudden they are able to withstand oceanic squalls. and five year olds. i hate being sick. hate it. and when i get to a certain level of sick, i shut down. and go to bed. or to couch. you know why? because THAT’S HOW YOU GET BETTER!! you don’t get better by taking cold pills and pushing yourself to continue on with your duties. you get better by resting and drinking lots of liquids and blowing your freaking nose. and applying your favorite homestyle remedies such as vitamin c or echinacia. i don’t know how to spell it, because i don’t take it. . with me, it’s orange juice. orange juice, kleenix, bed, and hot bubble baths. and aspirin. but mostly, sleep. i’m not one of those people who feels i have to deny the fact that i am sick, in order to beat it. in my experience, that makes it take longer.
of course, i like the cold pills too. but those are just delightful bonuses used in order to allow me to sleep. i was up almost all night sneezing and blowing my nose. it’s all in my head, my cold. i have a sore throat, but no coughing crap. so this morning i emailed in sick and took a cold pill and slept until noon and felt better for it. the sleep part. yesterday, i went to have brunch and i to meet bookclub for dinner, but other than that, i was couch bound. i came straight home from dinner, put my pajamas on, turned on bad WB sunday night tv, and read the Ultimate Danger Girl collection, with a forward from bruce campbell. whom i love. i’m recently a big fan of danger girl. it’s awesome.
ok. back to couch.

quizzies from loon…

stealing is fun. so i’m stealing from loon this evening.


How Would YOU Take Over the World?

Sad rock! O.o
You are the depressed rock!
i love the zoloft rock!! i tried to get a prescription to zoloft cuz i like that rock so much. but i guess zoloft doesn’t do much for allergies.

You are an Old Soul!
You are an old soul writer–neither a pantser (who
writes by the seat of her pants) nor a plotter
(who plots out a book before writing it).
You’re a person who values serendipity and
spontaneity, but also realizes the benefit of
having an idea where a story is going before
you write it. You may make up an outline or
have a plan for a book, and write something
totally different, but that’s OK. You’re not
comfortable writing without having at least
some idea of where the story is going, but you
also like the freedom to change the story from
what you originally planned. You’re a born
writer who realizes the value of serendipity.

What Kind of a Writer Are You?
brought to you by Quizilla
i am old soul. i have lived many previous lives. in one life, i was a tadpole, i just know it. i have tadpole type thoughts.
seriously tho… remind me to tell you about the time i won a free “past life regression” session sometime.

What Irrational Number Are You?
You are π

Of all the irrational numbers, you are the most famous. You have many friends and fans. Like many people, non-Euclidean geometry makes you feel uncomfortable. You are involved in so many things that it seems like it would take two of you to make ends meet.

You are particularly close to the rational number 22/7. However, you and e have been called “remarkable.”

Your lucky number is approximately 3.14159265

for those of you who can’t see images…

well, it would appear that this happens in IE 6, on windows. and that’s it. Louise and I cannot figure out why. probably because she is somewhat delusional. however, if you can use a different browswer, like mozilla, and see if that works for you, i’d appareciate it. i have posted to the moveable type forum, to see if they have any ideas.
stupid IE.

ooo… i’m so excited!

so excited i’m not even using movie quotes for subject lines. i am so excited, because i am about to bring the smack down upon a sales person. here at work. not at some store. someone here. who is abusing and misusing systems that have been put into place. he did it in about five different ways, and, unfortunately for him, he did it to my babytechs as well. so it’s been documented in case notes. and, unfortunately for him, i’m in the mood for a smack down!
it’s trÈs exciting. i justed listed off his crimes to my podmates. and their reaction to enthusiasm was “oooooooooh… someone’s in trouble.”
btw, louise. i didn’t do anything. if it’s fixed, it’s because you were LYING in the first place. 😛

louise is delusional…

that’s all i’m saying, kids. i work with her. i know. believe me. poor girl thinks she’s scottish.
hey louise, my stepdad took me out for dinner. guess what i had? a big fat STEAK!! i love me some cooked flesh of cow.
ok. since this “issue” has moved from CNR, to “able to recreate internally, even if it louise, and she’s delusional.” i’ll take a look at her computer. but i’m telling you…. it’s cuz you all overly dependant on microsoft. i just know it.

Can you pay a rainbow to be less beautiful?

oh, not much going on here today. i’ve waited all day for inspiration to strike. then i decided that my nails were too long, and that was impeding my ability to type. so i filed them down. still no inspiration. but it’s easier to type!
so, it occurred to me… they say that when you take a dislike to someone, you should look at the characteristics that cause you to dislike them. they are most likely the characteristics that you fear you, yourself, portray. it’s quite possible that i don’t like the alternajodi, from nyc, because i fear that i am snobby and arrogant. maybe? and, dag nabbit, if her last couple of posts weren’t funny!
but then i remembered. the alternajodi is vegan. and that really explains everything, doesn’t it?

Yeah! Let’s go get sushi and not pay.

i did four loads of laundry and that’s not even the tip of the iceberg baby. that’s just all the darks. minus any black. the blacks warrant a load or two all their own. yes, i have not done significant laundry in a while. plus, i have a lot of sheets. i have a slight bedding addiction.
since i found the cord to my digital camera, here are two pictures from the conveyor belt sushi place. click image to enlarge:

evildeb’s pile of sushi plates. the colors represent the different prices. which were listed on the wall. that’s evildeb’s evil hand with the chopsticks.

sushi going ’round and ’round and nobody eating it until it gets bad and poisonous. but that’s just my concern. i have no proof.

You caught me. I’m a laundry virgin.

hello and welcome to my day off! don’t get too excited, i’m doing laundry. and i have soooo much laundry. i’m going to do a mountain of it today, and that won’t even be half. it won’t even be a third. because i have a mountain range of laundry to do. i’ve been using dirty laundry to carpet my bedroom. it’s soft and squishy. but i don’t have enough baskets to take all the laundry i have to the laundrymat. which is where i am going. so i’ll have to go back later this week, in the evening. but… first things first.
yesterday, i picked a card to represent my next year. this is in addition to the card i automatically get, just by having my birthday. we’ll discuss that card later. but here’s the card i got for the year:

Sage of Worlds: Master
Through experience, you have mastered your craft Because you know how the wheels turn in the world, you have mastered the wheel of fortune. As the master of your art, you see your reflection in your work. Perform your trade and fulfill your responsibilities impeccably. Use your worldly life to cultivate your inner character. Engage in “right livelihood” of living healthy, wealthy, happy and holy.
Through your knowledge and the quality of your efforts, you achieve power and status, symbolized by the crown and elk horns. Though king of the mountain, nevertheless be humble, modest and share of your wealth. As one who is fully established, relax in your work, play at it and enjoy it. Take time out to pursue your hobbies, get energized, be with your friends and follow a spiritual path.

pretty cool, huh?
see ya later!
