Everyone must go watch this video. It's great! The song is actually from a musical called Avenue Q, but whoever did this video used characters from World of Warcraft.
Also, go watch this video of the worst job ever. I laughed my ass off the first time I saw this one!
Oh, by the way, neither one of these is child- or work-friendly!

If You're Looking for Me...
Here is why I may not be online. I'm staying with my granny while my parents go to visit my sister. I will not have my computer. I don't know if or when I will be at my own house during the time my parents are gone. I won't be home until Monday. Have a good weekend, and be good. Or be good at it.

As Requested: Update! :P
Bet you didn't know it as that easy huh? Well, Robbie is moving back in with his mother... taking John with him. Whatever! Anyway, his mother is the one that changes the packing on his holes (ew, I know!) and takes care of him and stuff, so back home he goes. They went down to the precinct this week, since no one from the station would return the phone inquiries regarding progress on the shooting. I suspect they've done... nothing. But at least call and say that you've done nothing if I call to ask what's being done! Anyway, he talked to the sargeant and the sargeant said he would "look into it." We'll see.
On a side note, I called in to talk about the whole think on Derek and Romaine for the "Desperately Fucking Angry" segment. I got on right away (thank you Dangling Dan), I think mostly by virtue of... well... my best friend being shot and stuff. I mean, if that's not a reason to be desperately fucking angry, what is? Derek and Romaine, I love you bitches!

To Know About the Giggleloop is to Become PART of the Giggleloop
I almost got sucked into my own personal giggleloop today.
I'm in Robbie's hospital room with Daryl and John and Robbie's mom when in walk two people from Robbie's grandmothers church. Now I remember the people from the one time I went, and they remember me, but I know (and this was later confirmed) that Robbie has no freaking CLUE who these people are. And of course, being the good church-going folk that they are, they want to pray. Okay, fine, whatever. But if I had known we were bringing invisible friends, I would've stopped and picked mine up on the way.
So we're standing in the obligatory hand-holding circle o'Jesus around the bed. The guy starts praying, and immediately I feel a giggleloop coming on. For one thing, the whole time the guys praying, the woman's muttering "oh praise Jesus, thank you Jesus" over and over, like she's having a jesusgazm or something. So that just about sets me off right there. But then the guy starts going on about "I command you Jesus, heal this man right now!" and I expect him to slap his forehead and shout "BE HEALED!" at any moment. Now, I may be a filthy heathen, but even I would feel a bit presumptuous at ordering Jeebus to do anything, let alone complete heal a man with seven holes in him. So as soon as he starts going on about that, I see this mental image in my head of an empty upside down beer glass slamming down on a table. Then the woman starts going on about all the choirs of angels surrounding the bed, and the ebil voice inside my head goes "We're going to need a bigger room if she summons any more angels..." and I'm off into my own personal internal giggleloop.

Patrick: What's a giggle loop?
Jeff: Don't ask... To know about the giggle loop... is to become part OF the giggle loop!
Steve: I think we can take it .
Jeff: You're not ready for the giggle loop.
Jeff: Basically, it's like a feedback loop, you're somewhere quiet, there's people... it's a solemn occasion, a wedding!.. no, it's a minutes silence for someone who's died!
Steve: Right?
Jeff: Minutes Silence, ticking away... the giggle loop begins! Suddenly, out of nowhere this thought comes into your head: the worst thing you could possibly do during a minutes silence is laugh!
Jeff: As soon as you think that, you almost do laugh! Automatic reaction but you don't... you control yourself! You're fine! But then you think how terrible it would have been if you'd laughed out loud in the middle of a minute silence and so you nearly do it again!
Jeff: But this time, it's an even bigger laugh, then you think how awful this bigger laugh would have been, and so you nearly laugh again only this time, it's a very big laugh, let this bastard out and you get whiplash!
Jeff: ... and suddenly, you're in the middle of this completely silent room, and your shoulders are going like they're drilling the road, and what do you think of this situation? Oh dear Christ, you think it's funny!

Just When You Think It Couldn't Possibly Get Worse
My best friend was shot today. That's right. Shot. He was shot at least 4 times, with 7 entrance/exit wounds. He was shot in the abdomen, and through his elbow. He had half of his bowels removed (there is still a chance to get an infection due to getting feces in the blood stream), part of his colon, and his appendix. He has had two pins put in his arm, and it's possible he may not regain use of his arm. Two men came to the passenger door of his car and attempted to open it, he reached under the seat for his gun, they shot him and took off. He's in intensive care, under guard, and I can't see him. My best friend in the world, and I can't even see him. His own grandparents couldn't see him. Just his mother, his sister, and the other person present at the shooting. I don't feel like talking about it anymore, so...

My Heart is Broken
I have not yet posted about this, because it's been very hard thinking about it, even almost two weeks after it happened. On Saturday, September 3rd, I had to take my sweet little kitty, Kitsa, in to be put to sleep. Her kidneys were failing and there was nothing that could be done. She has been my furry little baby for thirteen years, and I miss her terribly. I think letting her go was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. I loved her with all my heart.

Depressing...
My mother called me about an hour before I left work to tell me the depressing news that a cousin-by-marriage has been killed in an automobile accident today. My sister-in-law's nephew was 16 years old and just got his license this weekend. His school let out early today due to the bad weather from the hurricane (he was in Birmingham, Alabama). I don't know the details to the accident, I just know he was in a car accident on the way home from school and was killed. My brother and his wife are very (understably) torn up about this, and I'm sure his wife's sister is absolutely inconsolable. No one should experience the death of their child.

A Week at Granny's
For the past week, I have been staying with my grandmother while my parents went on a semi-vacation in Texas. I say "semi" because they were there to visit relatives and friends, not to say, go to the beach and relax. There is, after all, a certain amount of stress to be had in visiting relatives and friends that you have not seen in quiet a long time. Now, you must understand that my granny is 96 years old, still gets around fairly well, does some of her own cooking, and has her mind. Having said that, here is how my granny drove me insane.
Every morning, I'd get her up, give her her medications, and fix her breakfast while she got dressed. Every morning when I woke her up she would tell me how miserably she slept, despite keeping me up half the night with her snoring, which I could hear thru the baby monitor my parents have to make sure she is heard if she falls in the night. Every morning she'd come in to the kitchen, sit down, start eating her breakfast. And every morning, she'd look at me, where I was standing at the stove, frying sausage and eggs, and ask "Don't you eat breakfast?" Every morning, I'd make my sausage links and scrambled eggs and sit at the table with her and eat my breakfast. Every morning, she'd ask me what time I left for work. And every morning, she'd ask me if I had to make up these days off.
Every afternoon, she makes her own lunch. Every afternoon, she came in to tell me she makes her own lunch and eats it in her own kitchen so I don't have to make her anything.
Every evening, while I was standing in my parents kitchen (Think of my parents and grandparents house like a gigantic duplex. Two kitchens, two living rooms, many many bedrooms and bathrooms.) she would come in and say "I don't come offer to help make dinner. I figure I'd just be in the way."
Every night she'd come in and tell me that I don't have to wait up for her to go to bed at the late hour of 10:30. That I could go to bed whenever I please. Every night, I tell her I stay up later that she does on a regular basis. Every night she says not to stay up late on her account. Every night, she'd tell me she loves me and appreciates my staying with her. And somehow, that makes it all worth the effort.

STRESS!!!!!
Would you say I'm stressed? Me? Of course not!
What's that?
Well... maybe a little...
Anyway! We had a "Stress Management" seminar at work today. Of course it didn't occur to them to say, relieve our stress by improving the morale in the office. But at least we had a perky little seminar about it. One of our handy-dandy exercises was to fill out a questionaire, to determine what our main "stressors" are. Guess what my top two were. Go on guess.
Give up?
Number 1: Occupation! Number 2: Finances!
Gee, wasn't that a huge surprise.
Moving on... the other handy-dandy exercise we had to do was to team up in groups of three and make a list of "stress relievers". Here's what my group came up with:
What's that?

Gee, wasn't that a huge surprise.
Moving on... the other handy-dandy exercise we had to do was to team up in groups of three and make a list of "stress relievers". Here's what my group came up with:
- A- Aerobics: needless to say, this was NOT my suggestion. Stress causer is more like it.
- B- Bath: Our instructor said that her previous group came up with "beer".
- C- Celtic Music: ah yes, now we're into familiar territory. I'd also like to add "cats". :P
- D- Drive in the country
- E- Eating: A good, healthy way to relieve stress, right?
- F- Fantasies: no, not THAT kind of fantasy. Pervs. The faeries and dragons kind.
- G- Gardening
- H- Hugging: aw. How very touchy-feely.
- I- Ice Cream: Do we seem to have a theme going? E for "eating", I for "ice cream". What's next? P for Popcorn?
- J- We didn't have an answer for J at the time, but later, as I contemplated our lack of J-ness, I thought, "of course, Johnny Depp!" Oh yes, I have but to think of Johnny Depp and suddenly I'm less stressed.
- K- Kick boxing: Again, not my idea. But the thought of kicking the snot out of ... well... some people that shall remain nameless... is quite tempting. I thought we should've continued the touchy-feely-ness and went with "kissing," and that would lead nicely into our answers for O and S, but oh well.
- L- Laughing: Also, would like to add "Lord of the Rings," as in the movies.
- M- Music
- N- Nap
- O- The scribe refused to write down what all three of us said for O, but we all said "orgasms". I can't imagine why she wouldn't write that down for a work seminar.
- P- Playing the piano: this actually wasn't my suggestion, but it applies.
- Q- Quiet: of course we could've said P was "peace" and Q was "quiet".
- R- Reading
- S- Again, we had no answer because the scribe for our group wouldn't write down "sex".
- T- Tea, as in, the drinking of.
- U- Our group didn't have an answer for U. The instructor said that the same group that put "beer" for B, but "U bringing me beer" for U.
- V- Vacation
- W- Walking: Definitely not my idea. That would stress me out more, what with my bad knee and all.
- X- We had no answer for X as all we could think of that starts with X is xylophone. Or X-rated movies.
- Y- Yelling, preferably at someone that won't yell back. Like your kids.
- Z- Zoo, as in, the going to. Meh. What else starts with Z that you could think of in a work seminar in 1 minute.

Dream Diary AKA Peanut Monkies Are Taking Over My Dreams
I don't remember much of the dream I had last night, but... yes, you guessed it. The peanut monkey made a guest appearance. An honest-to-god appearance, too. Not just a passing thought. For some reason, he just showed up at my mum's for holiday dinner and expected to sleep at my house while he visited the states. It was all quite surprising. There was even *gasp* hugs.

Dream Diary
Apparently Daryl and Sarah and I have moved to London, or some other large city in England. We've gotten a little house and I enrolled in an University. Daryl wasn't in my dream at this point. I don't know why. Maybe he was at work. I left Sarah at the house alone and started walking to the University. I had memorized the directions, but they took me through a very dodgy part of town. As I walked I heard crying. Following the sound, I found a little girl. Somehow this little girl, maybe 6, had lost track of her younger sister, and now the little sister had fallen through a broken sewer grate in the gutter and couldn't get back out. The little sister seemed strangely undisturbed at being stuck in the gutter under a sewer grate. As I kneeled in the muck to reach the girl to pull her out, I saw an older guy breaking into a house out of the corner of my eye. I thought "maybe he'll leave me alone if I don't act like I saw him." I pulled the little girl out and left the girls to get back to their house, which didn't seem at all weird. I started walking out of the dodgy part of town. I rounded a corner and walked past a policeman and blurted out that there was a robbery in progress around the corner. Just then, the theif walked around the corner and without thinknig, I point and shout "That's him!" The policeman pulls his gun out but the robber sees him and runs at him and knocks the officer roughly to the ground, where he goes unconscious. The robber pulls his own gun out and starts shooting at me, intent on killing the witness. I drop to avoid one shot that goes high, and as I roll and start to my feet, I pull out my own gun that my father gave me to protect myself. Because we all know guns are allowed in England. I fire at the thief six times. The first shot goes wide but the next five hit him right in the chest.
The next part is unclear in my mind but I remember I go on to the University like normal and eventually get involved in a long conversation with the professor and a couple of male students after class. I remember one made threats at me for some reason and I said something like "Just try it. I already shot one man 5 times in the chest today." Later I remember saying I had told Sarah I'd be home around 5pm and someone pointed out ot me that it was already 1030pm. I realize I don't remmeber how to get back ot my house and I don't remember the name of the street. Somehow it's light out even though it's 1030 at night. Perhaps I wandered around all night. A group of 3 cyclists, two guys and a girl, walk past me holding their bikes and casually chatting. The cute blond of the bunch asked if he could help me and I told him my problem. He promised he'd help me find my home. I open my bag and pull out my bike, which is groovy and folding and light as a feather, and my cell, which isn't working and hasn't all night.
As we walk, a big storm blows in and my new friend says he knows a place we can shelther in. It belongs to a friend of his and they just use it to store things, and that it had never been cleared of the stuff left by the previous tenants. It's in a dodgy part of town. We find it and go on in. I slowly come to realize that it's the house I grew up in and start to cry as memories ouf my brothers and I flood my mind. We were poor and it was hard, but we had fun and loved each other. As the storm dies, my cell rings, and it's my sister, Maggie. She's at my house with Sarah and they're both worried because I never came home. Daryl is out looking for me. It's a bad connection and we loose it before I can get the address or directions. I also remember thinking that it would be cool if I knew where Adam the peanut monkey lived, because I could go visit him since I'm in England now. But I don't have his address or phone number or anything, so I can't. Anyway, somehow Daryl finds us. The three of us start for my house. The cute blond stays with usbecause he promised he'd help me get home.
It gets fuzzy again. Somehow my dad is in the hospital so we decide to go see him first. I remember it was overcrowded and filthy. I remember using the restroom and it was disgustingly dirty, with urine stains on the floor and mold on the walls. I told my mom about the house. She asks us to go back for some reason. Probably to pick up the pictures and things we had left behind when we moved. I don't know why we left everything behind. Now it starts getting really weird (like it wasn't already).
Something bad happened while we were in the house, and suddenly I'm like Elena from the series Wit'ch Wars by James Clemens (which is what I was reading before I went to bed. She uses sunlight to replenish her magic, by putting her hand in a beam of light and absorbing it's energy.) I had to replinish my magic in the sunlight. I went to the room that used to be mine and my brothers bedroom. Part of the ceiling has fallen in and the room had flooded in the storm. I had to jump from floating bed to floating bed, because of course it rained SO much and that room was um, watertight... yeah... until I could reach the sunlight streaming in through the ceiling and gain my magic. We decide to make a run for it. Now it gets all World of Warcraft-y.
We aren't fast neough running and there's a group of lvl 60 horde (orcs, trolls, tauren, and undead) after us. We aren't fast enough so I shout to ask if everyone has their mounts. We all do, so we stop and summon them. We take off running again but I'm a lower level and don't have my epic mount (which run twice as fast as a regular mount, but you have to be lvl 60 to use it) so Daryl and the blond guy start to outrun me. One of the horde also has his epic mount and quickly overtakes me. I feel a tingling between my shoulders and just know the troll is about to run his glowing blue sword straight through my back. I don't dare look back. Suddenly he starts to pass me. He raises his sword, point toward the sky, grinning, in a weird salute. I guess I'm too low to count as an honorable kill to a lvl 60 so he's going after Daryl and the blond guy. We find we can't outrun the horde.. horde, so we start blasting holes in the walls to jump thru in an attempt to evade them and loose them. I'm too slow compared to the epic mounts speed, so the first troll easily keeps up with me, and leads the horde after us. We eventually make a mistake and somehow circle around and blow a hole in the wall and the opening comes out in the middle of the horde mob. We ready our spells and weapons, preparing to die in a massive PvP battle.

Dream Diary
Okay, so this dream occured sometime last week, and I couldn't be buggered to type up what I wrote down earlier, and besides that, I figure no one really cares. Do you? No, I didn't think so. :P
My husband (yes, Daryl, not some fake dream husband) and I were living in a huge expensive mansion near an ocean. I was thin and beautiful and looked totally unlike myself as I really am. Indeed. Apparently he and I lived in a different country and a completely different culture where it is totally acceptable, nay, expected that any man of status has more than one wife. I say apparently because one day he waltzed in with a small, dark, and beautiful second wife. Bastard. Of course, I immediately hated her for no real reason, except that my husband married her. Which is silly of course, since I should've been mad at him. Daryl spent all his time with her and never left time for me. And since, in my dream he was being a right bastard, he didn't even notice how much emotional distress I was in. I had a fight over something with Daryl and ran into our bedroom, slammed the door, and locked it behind me. He didn't even notice. He turned to his new wife and they mocked and scoffed me with their mocking scoffery.
I left through our bedroom, which convieniently had a beautiful double door leading onto a porch overlooking the ocean. I climbed over the porch rail, despite wearing a beautiful white flowing multilayered dress. I took one of our beautiful (noticing a theme here?) horses, a white, spirited stallion, and went riding along the beach as fast as I could, determined to never return until he realized just how wonderful a wife I was! As I was riding, I came across a group of scraggly looking, yet beautiful (of course) people that had made a village, complete with women and children, in a nearby cove.
They captured me and forced me to tell them who I was and why I was intruding on their village. They allowed me to stay as long as I earned my keep. Daryl never noticed I had gone, intent upon pleasing his new wife. My father came in search of me, but he was young and dashing, riding a beautiful (what else?) brown horse with a black mane. I told him why I didn't want to return and he decided to stay to protect me and help me. The village people (Y-M-C-A!) meant for their village to be hidden and wouldn't allow us to leave even if we had wanted to, unless we proved ourselves to them. They seemed to survive by a combination of pirating (yar!) and hunting and trapping. They set my father and I on a quest. We had to take a small boat to a nearby island and kill or trap small rodents that looked similar to bunnies but without all the hopping nonsense. They showed us an elaborate trap built solely for the purpose of capturing the rodents. I could tell from the way they looked at each other that there was a catch, but we couldn't figure out what it was before they sent us on our way.
That's as far as my dream got.
So basically, I left home, discovered a new zone (score!), but my pirate faction wasn't high enough, so I had to accept a quest to raise my pirate faction to at least amiable... Daryl says I play too many video games.

By the Way...
To the asshole that posted a virus in my guestbook a few days ago, in the words of the marvelous Bill Hicks: "Kill yourself. Thank you. Just planting seeds, planting seeds is all I'm doing. No joke here, really. Seriously, kill yourself, you have no rationalisation for what you do, you are Satan's little helpers. Kill yourself, kill yourself, kill yourself now... Suck a tail pipe, hang yourself... borrow a pistol from an NRA buddy, do something... rid the world of your evil fuckin' presence."

ARGH! Liberals...
Well, let me start by saying that I listen to Air America Radio while I'm at work. I enjoy listening to the liberal talk shows, and it gets me through the day. I get sick of music, and the talk shows keep me generally angry at republicans and awake! One of the shows, Mike Malloy, has a intro line that says "If you're not furious, you're not paying attention," or something similar to that; which pretty much sums it up. Anyway. As I was listening to a call-in segment on the showMorning Sediiton, hosted by comedian Mark Maron and veteran radio personality Mark Riley, I realized something. I get so pissed at liberal thinking persons yelling at each other! It seems like a lot of what I hear on AAR involves callers just calling up to say "I agree with you but..." and then adding phrases like "You shouldn't say 'Christians' in such a general way because it alienates liberal Christians" or "You shouldn't say Christians, because those people aren't Christians" or "You shouldn't use the phrase pro-life, because that's giving in to the Right Wing rhetoric!" Why are we attacking each other... over phrasology?? How about redirecting your righteous anger about the neo-con wing of Republicans that are the ones giving the bad name to Christians? Why not focus your anger about anti-choice republicans toward the... now here's a unique thought... the REPUBLICANS! This attitude just infuriates me! It seems so pointless and self-deating. A liberal talk show host using the word "Christian" without adding a disclaimer every time he or says it is not the problem. The people that are corrupting the teachings of Christ and using them for political gain are. Stop complaining about how the left is using the right wing rhetoric and focus on the real issues. Stop self-defeating and obfuscating! I am so sick of hearing, "Well I'm a liberal Christian and I'm offended by you lumping all Christians in with the right wing conservative Christians" and blah, blah, blah... Use your f'n head! Do you really think that the other listeners of the show don't realize exactly who the host is referring to? ARGH!

Har!
I saw the funniest thing today, or at least it was to me. So... I was at the grocery, and on the way back to my car I walked past this little white truck with one of this conversation bubble suction cup thingies with "humourous" statements on them in the back window. It said "Faster than a speeding ticket!". As I walked by I looked at it and thought, "Heh, I wouldn't bet on it." I made one more stop on the way home, and then as I finally headed home, I drove past the same little white truck, parked on the side of the road, with a police officer giving him a speeding ticket.
So I guess the moral of the story is: Don't put anything in your window to tempt fate... or police officers.

Dream Diary
I was 9 months pregnant and out doing something with my parents. Shopping for the baby or something I suppose. My water broke and next thing I know I'm laying on the floor. Somhow there was this handsome guy that said he was a nurse and that he could help me. He helped me up and walked me around the room coaching my breathing; then he started hitting on me, but not in an obnoxious kind of way. He hinted that we should run away together, several times. Finally, I smiled at him and patted his cheek, which I suppose was rather condescending now that I think about it, and told him that while he was very handsome and sweet, that I dearly loved my husband very much and wouldn't even dream of leaving him. A change came over the guy. He got very silent and brooding, stood up, turned his back to me, and eventually walked away, leaving me on the floor with my ever increasing contractions.

Dream Diary
So yeah, I had this weird dream. My friend Robbie and I were agents for some kind of government office in the future. We were sent on a mission to retrieve some high ranking official, like a foreign diplomat or somthing, who had disappeared while in our governments care. It was believed that he or she had been "abducted" by aleins. He and I took a smlal space ship and went to their planet. We crash landed in a swamp that was filled with many and varied odd-looking indiginous flora and fauna. We had come prepared with the local garb, as these aliens were not unknown to our planet. Disguised in the appropriate garments, we made our way to the near-by capitol city, figured to be the most likely starting point. The citizens of the city were humanoid, looked actually human in fact, and had the epicanthic fold of asian races. I don't know what happened, but at one point we wound up chasing or perhaps being chased through the corridors of a huge buliding that served many purposes. I found myself running, with the obligatory laser gun in hand, thru a classroom of people that I had went to high school with; but now, unexplicably, they were in class, and I was in a lucrative, albeit highly dangerous and heroic government position. Hah. At another point, we both ran into a room, perhaps to hide, that appeared to be a bar or club full of men in various stages of undress. I knew, however that it wasn't necessarily a gay bar, in that way you know things in a dream. The men were anxious to please and I remember Robbie got jealous because they all wanted to lavish me with attention and drinks. At this point, since they were in various stages of undress as I said, that there was a difference between this race and our own. Their male ... anatomy... while being similar in look and average length of a human males was, shall we say, lacking in the circumfrence department, comparable to a straw perhaps, or a pencil. My dream ended with us in the bar surrounded by eager to please young men.

So yeah...
My webhost has been screwing with the server my site is on, and finally my site is back up. However, in the midst of the screwing, my mail has been FUBAR'd. So if you need me, you will have to use my gmail address, which if you know me should be using anyway. If you don't know me and wish to contact me, um, leave a message after the beep. *beep*

To Whom It May Concern
What happened to being polite? What happened to respecting other peoples opinions? Why must people be rude assholes when someone thinks/looks/acts/likes things different than they do? Grow up. Be an adult. If you don't have something to say besides something rude, why even bother wasting my time. State your opinion politely if you must, but if you come to me, my site, my territory and verbally piss on it, expect me to tell you, in the infamous words of our vice-pres, to go fuck yourself. If someone politely states and opinion, I can respect that. If someone comse along and insults me, or is rude, they deserve no respect.
