almost halloween...
2007-10-30 20:31:00 i've got my nails painted black for the occasion (thanks C!) and that's about as far as i'm going this year. i've already got the black cat. another radio bam re-run. this re-run was a show that him and missy did before they got married. totally boring and unexciting since it's not topical anymore. the shows with novak, dico, gee, uncle shitbird or chad on them are so much better and more More About: Halloween , Allo
Blue Skies!!
2007-10-30 02:20:00 today at work i saw blue skies. it was really cool. the fire is still going but they say it will be contained by friday thank goodness. the fire fighters and police are amazing! this weekend N was commenting that we had nothing to do. so we ended up painting the living room. i went to lowes and hd and found a couple colors in the opps, $5 section. so the wall behind the couch is the coolest More About: Blue
TGIF
2007-10-26 23:33:00 it's friday! this week has been exhausting with the fires and stress and bad air. now the winds have died down so work is covered in smoke since the fire is still burning in the canyon. (only 30% contained) and it looks like a lot of the cleveland nat'l forest my burn since the terrain isn't good for people to get into they have to rely on the air drops which can only be done during daylight.
still burning...
2007-10-25 04:12:00 the fire is still going on behind my work. yesterday they were evacuated when the fire was across the street! i'm glad i was off already. today when i drove to work and home i wore a face mask. the air is "unhealthy" and it was really bad. my eyes are nice and red too. here are some pictures. they're not the best. the one on top is the street going up the hill next to work. you can kind of see More About: Burning , Burn
Day 3 of the fires...
2007-10-23 16:35:00 not much to report this AM. the 3 fires by magic mountain have apparently merged to 1 big one. that's where one of the big prisons is located as well. sometimes some of them help fight the fires but i'm not sure if they are evacuated. it's odd how the news rarely tells you of the unpleasant places that have to be evacuated as well. hmmm. the fire by work is still going strong along with mailbu, More About: Fires
Mandatory Evacuations at Foothill Ranch...
2007-10-22 23:52:00 that's where work is! i hope everyone there is ok and has left the area. myfoxla has the best coverage so far. i just loaded some more stuff into the car just in case. not that we'd have anywhere to go if a fire made it to our place. that's kinda the scariest thing and that's the case down here for most people at this point...16 fires now going last count. there is basically a big fire in a half More About: Ranch

2007-10-22 22:37:00 i just got back from lunch and running errands. i finally have leashes for all the cats (and harnesses) 2 disposable cat litter trays, and face masks, another brand new flashlight and gloves. so now i'm much broker but i feel better. still don't have a "complete" first aid kit. when you're outside it's super ashy and smokey. now there are about 8 fires burning or so according to arnold.

Kid Nation
2007-10-19 23:35:00 i've been watching the kid nation online since it started. the first couple of shows i wasn't too impressed with and generally annoyed by most of the kids. this week they had new elections for the town council and that was interesting! the show is a micro chasm of our society. even though the kids are young, they behave the same way they're adult counterparts in the world behave. i was really More About: Nation , Kid Nation

2007-10-18 20:00:00 J & S treated N & I to dinner last nite. J had been to this place before but the rest of us were newbies. we got there around 7pm and signed up on the wait list. to kill some time we went next door to the sushi and sake bar for a quick appetizer since we were hungry. we sat down and after about 10 minutes someone took the drink order. after 10 more minutes the drinks came. 10 minutes later a More About: Dinner , Crepes , Erie

2007-10-15 18:11:00 it was a GREAT weekend! thursday we went down to SD for the concert. our timing at the venue was amazing. we got there right when the first band was done. they set up for the next band and N said it would be CKY. i was hopeful but my luck isn't that good. the lights go out and suddenly the knight rider theme comes on. i literally almost jumped out of my skin. that's my ring tone on my cell! i'm More About: Work , Back

FRUSTRATION with Paypal
2007-10-10 21:30:00 as you can tell from the title, i'm pretty tweaked at paypal. i go to pay my progressive car insurance online on friday. they have paypal as an option so i figured why not since i use it for ebay all the time with no issues. after i clicked everything through i got the dreaded error message saying that communication failed and it did not go through. no biggie so i paid a different way. inhale More About: Paypal , Frustration , Stration
Ever watched a TV show & wondered "what happened?"
2007-10-09 20:22:00 there is a show on hgtv called Dream House. this show has been on for almost 10 years but each season follows a different family or person during the construction of said Dream House. back in the early 1990's there was a season i was obsessed with. Bruno Reich was the homeowner, general contractor, architect, landscaper and more. while watching the season you learn of his struggles with the town More About: Show

She-Ra Anyone?
2007-09-14 18:29:00 last year i got a little "obsessed" with ebay. i discovered that people were selling their She-Ra Princess of Power figures and accessories. that was my favorite cartoon when i was young. it's really the only cartoon i wanted toys from. i had most of the figures and the castle and a bunch of other items. of course i ended up tossing them or something when i was "over it" and more grown-up. a
