Pict0rs, tiredness, money.
Sep. 13th, 2001 02:25 amTonight we Pony Expressed it for dinner. (for those not in the know, Pony Express delivers food from like 10 different Eugene restaurants right to your door... spiffy, ne?) That was probably a good thing because A) I didn't feel like cooking, and B) we were seriously low on clean dishes. I gotta start nagging the guys sooner about dishes when it's not my turn, cos it usually takes them a couple days to actually find a good chunk of time in their week when they can do it. ^^;
Now that Kyuu and Iori have posted pict0rs from Y-Con, I decided to get off my arse and start thumbnailing them this afternoon. (mostly cos Alyson will probably give me a sound digital whuppin' if I don't do it soon ^_-) I have close to 30 photos, which is more than I remember actually taking, so I didn't quite get done today, but I should be able to put them up sometime tomorrow afternoon/evening.
Things are really slow tonight. I think everyone is still very tuckered out from what's been happening lately. I'm pretty worn out myself, but I don't want to go to bed either. I find it somewhat ironic that the time my body chooses to *stop* sleeping until noon coincides with the time that my body and spirit need extra rest the most.
I have some buck$ in my bank account, finally, but according to my records, only like $15 or so of that is actually mine to spend. I really wish I had more money right now because if I did, I'd be donating like crazy to Red Cross, but a girl's gotta eat, and I have to make that $15 last for the rest of the month, or at least until I get gas money from Bossness and/or Kyuu for all the driving I did for Y-Con. It sucks being broke, and *not* because it means I don't get to drive around in a shiny red BMW or something. I just want to have that precious bit of extra money whenever I need to help someone, or when I want to do something nice for someone. I'd be a total gift-giving hound, if I just had the money.
Anyhoo, I should probably wrap this up and think about getting some rest. G'night.

God doesn't love jerks like this.
Sep. 13th, 2001 03:27 pmJerry Falwell is such a useless prick. Thousands of people have recently DIED, and all he can do is keep spouting off his hate-filled propaganda towards LGBTs, abortionists, feminists, and the like. Nobody needs to hear words like these when they're sitting at home, *mourning* the loss of someone they truly loved.
It's people like him who have made us all so apathetic and hateful towards organized religion. When did God stop being about love and acceptance and start being about hate, segregation, and unwarranted labels?
Want to see a good Christian? This is a good Christian. She's accepting of myself and her other friends, even though the tenets of her religion state that a lot of us are probably going to hell when we die. She doesn't hate me because I'm a non-religious half-breed with a live-in boyfriend, and she sure as hell wouldn't try to *blame* me for what happened at the WTC.
Here's a tip for the more hateful religious folk: instead of following Mr. Falwell's example, try being more like that girl up there--I think a lot of people would respond much better towards religion if you all did. I don't know about some people, but for most folks, when it comes to a belief system, love always wins over hate, and I am sick and tired of all the hate.

Sweatin' (but not to the oldies)
Sep. 13th, 2001 06:27 pmI didn't get to work out earlier today, so I did it just now. I did aerobic and abs/lower back work today, so I'm pretty pooped now. I don't generally get so worn out when it's an upper-body toning day. It's the days when I have to work those lower muscles that suck all my energy away.
It looks like I'm selling off Shecky for real this time. James' aunt wants to buy it, which means that Mr. DDR Pad must go byebye, since it won't work on Inaho. But that's okay, because the DDR emulators kind of sucked and the songs weren't synched very well with the steps on some of them. I think I'm just going to save up for a Playstation, an official DDR game disc, and maybe even one of those fancy-schmancy hard mats. That would 0wn!
Anyhoo, it's tyme to shower.

Sep. 13th, 2001 09:03 pmI have some coolville daddy-o software now. I have Premiere 6 and Bryce 4 to play with! Bryce is neat. I can make creepie environment renders and stuff now. Oooo, the fun times. :D I was supposed to end up with Illustrator 9 instead of Illustrator 7 too, but I can't get the install to go. ;_; One of these years I'll get lots of money, so I can buy all this software for real. (well, all the stuff that's actually cool, anyway.)
Anyhow, I need to get off my bum bum bum and make some din din din. I am hungry! Grrr! :O

D00D! TMBG!
Sep. 13th, 2001 09:14 pmI probably should have mentioned this sooner, but They Might Be Giants is going to play tomorrow as part of Eugene Celebration! It's at 10:15 tomorrow night, at the 5th Avenue stage (between Oak and Pearl)
It looks like it'd be $7 a pop for the TMBG show, since it's only one day, but I might have read it wrong... here's some info on admission prices and such if you want to look.
So, anybody wanna go? I probably will. :D Lemme know if you do!

PHEAR my wiggly-curl eyebrow of intrigue.
The only thing that could have possibly made that picture cooler is if I'd had a martini glass or something. Bwahaha. THANKS MAYA! :D :D :D
Speaking of Y-Con pictures, I didn't get to do anything with mine today. I got distracted playing with Bryce, and then I had to make dinner, do dishes, and now I have to do laundry... gak. I have lots of excuses, but if you want more, then I'll have to start making them up. ;p
Addendum: check out the new userpic, buddy buddy! When in doubt, hide behind cheesy wooden chopsticks. ^_-
