Slowly… Going… Insane

Yesterday I was talking to my friend Gail and apparently there have been some issues with my website being dreadfully slow lately. She said it kept hanging on some “nerdsonsite” thing, which was the counter on the top of the bar to the left that used to say “Currently Visiting” and then show the number of visitors on my site …

Family?

The grandfather I never knew died today. This morning I was speaking to my mother on the phone and she told me he was dying, that they’d heard it through my father’s cousin who didn’t want my father to just see it in the paper or something. Not that I think it would make any difference, as my father always …

Ruh Roh

Xander is on a warpath. He messaged me from work today saying that he printed off this month’s phone bill and it’s higher than ever. According to the rest of the bills he’s printed off, our phone bill has been steadily increasing between May – September. This is quite a coincidence since the frequency of my annoying neighbour (see post …

WKRP in Cincinnati

Last weekend I got the coolest plant ever.. a Venus Flytrap! I’ve always wanted one, especially after a friend of mine got one and was saying how cool it was. Last Saturday Xander and I went to the market with a friend and while we were looking at plants there, I mentioned I wanted a Venus Flytrap. Being the kickass …

Tile Trouble – 2

So the floor tiles arrived and we went to the store to pick them up. Xander’s friend drove us and he wouldn’t let me get out of the car because of my back. Thoughtful, but in the end a huge mistake. He brought them out to the car and when I looked at them I thought, hey.. these aren’t the …

Americans are Idiots

I challenge anyone who disagrees with me to watch this season of American Idol. This week Nikko Smith was voted off and I literally said out loud in an empty room “What the fuck?!” The week before Jessica Sierra was told to take a walk. She wasn’t one of my favorites but there are far worse than her still hanging …

Happy Place

Whoever says to think of a “Happy Place” when you’re feeling crap must be a fucking idiot. I tried that yesterday, which was an upsetting and frustrating day, and I just got more upset because I’m not in the happy place! I’ve been in the “Bad Place” mentally for the last few weeks, I’m not sure what has triggered it …

Word in Dutch… is still Word

I don’t mean the actual word “WORD” but the program “WORD”. I managed to talk myself into going to school yesterday, thinking I’d go to class and listen to my teacher .. you know, teach me shit. Yeah … When I got there she took us to the OLC (Open Leer Centrum) and plopped us down in front of computers. …

Pain in the Asstress

Today I had the absolute misfortune of watching the show Fat Actress with Kirstie Alley. Perhaps the fact that I’ve never liked her as an actress played a part in my disgust with this show, because she has come off as whiney and psychotic in pretty much every role she’s ever played. I think even if it had been someone …

Another one bites the dust! .. or four!

Another week of Idol is said and done, and I must say I’m disappointed with you AMERICA!! What horrible taste you all have! This week’s eliminations were: David Brown – Understandable but sad to see him go. Joseph Murena – Was only a matter of time, he sucks. Celena Rae – Meh, no loss. Aloha Mischeaux – WTF?! Who the …
