How neat?.
2008-02-20 21:15:00 I found this on Joana’s blog and thought I’d check it out for myself. Interesting questions, and frankly, it’s always chocolate and coke. As for the rest, well, if you want to know what I answered for a this or that type of survey, you can click below for my answers.
Dangerous?
2008-02-20 10:40:00 I’m not sure why some people insist on taking all sorts of weird concoctions to try and lose weight. I’ve been hearing about some weird thing that’s 3 pills a day and you lose 12 pounds a month. I’ve seen ads asking for women of a certain age range, needing to lose a certain amount ...

I need a new theme
2008-02-17 07:23:00 Yes, I need a new theme. The purple hearts are getting to me. I’m thinking NASCAR…. possibly either a montage of my favorite drivers, or possibly just Tony, but I’m not sure yet. It just depends on what kind of inspiration hits me. I did however discover that I have Windows Movie Maker on ... More About: Theme
Taking Classes
2008-02-16 04:48:00 I started taking classes through the online “college” that my job offers. Stream U is pretty neat. All the classes are online, although to my idea, it’s silly to teach people advanced HTML coding skills without first actually teaching them beginning HTML. Also, most people are now using PHP and ColdFusion to power their sites, ... More About: Classes , Taking
Franchise Me!
2008-02-12 22:42:00 Over the past few years, we’ve gotten quite a new selection of stores and restaurants. Companies from all over are selling franchise rights to people in our area for everything from Olive Garden (YUM!) to Old Navy, Rue 21, PetSmart, and others to name a few. I’ve been quite pleased at who they have brought ... More About: Franchise
What is it with people and TMI?
2008-02-12 22:37:00 I kid you not, there are people at work who just give out way too much information. Such as that their mom, dad, or grandma went in to have a colon cleanse done. Or what they did in their bedrooms the night before. Hey, I am not opposed to a little sex talk but ... More About: People , Blogging
This Stinks
2008-02-12 22:34:00 I’m at the library. I get 45 minutes a day of internet time. That’s it. I have no other options until at least the 15th, when I get paid again. And, to top it all off, I stand a chance of losing my job because I didn’t have a ride to work. I need a ... More About: Life , Blogging
It Is A Necessity
2008-02-09 03:01:00 When I was still living in Texas, long before Gothic Peach was even though about, my room mate decided that she wanted to buy a house. Now, she wasn’t used to the process of buying a house that she would have to make payments on, since her parents always bought their houses outright. Don’t ask ...
Entrecard Question
2008-02-09 00:25:00 Have you ever been going along, visiting blogs, dropping cards, and all of a sudden WHAM! You’re not logged into Entrecard anymore? It’s happened three times today and it’s driving me bananas. However, I did manage to drop over 100 Entrecards today, so hmph. I’m eating something that some of my friends cringe at. ...

Honestly
2008-02-08 10:56:00 I have to love my co-workers. One of them was on a complete tirade today. You see, Valentine’s Day is coming up and she’s not all too fond of men, because she doesn’t have one right now. She’s divorced and she was going on and on about how how men never wear their ...
Pardon me?
2008-02-05 08:45:00 Recently I was asked to sample a couple of Grey Poupon mustards and give an honest review of them. The mustards in question are Harvest Coarse Ground and Hearty Spicy Brown. The Harvest Coarse Ground is made with whole mustard seeds, while the Hearty Spicy Brown is made with yellow onions. Now I don’t ... More About: Pardon
Open Letter to My Neighbors
2008-02-04 21:00:00 Seven AM. That is what time I was awakened this morning by the kids next door running around, screaming their lungs out. I don’t know if they were trying to avoid taking a bath, trying to avoid eating breakfast, trying to avoid each other, or trying to avoid going to school, but their parents sure ...

Server Switch
2008-02-03 20:52:00 I’m moving my sites to a new server. It’s not that I don’t love my reseller account, but…..right now, I don’t have the money to pay the server bill, so I’m cutting back and letting it go. I’m going to save up my money and hopefully just buy the full years worth of reseller hosting ... More About: Switch , Server , Witch
How Sad?
2008-02-03 04:11:00 That I’ve been looking for a vacuum cleaner on Home Depot’s website. Yeah, I know. I need a life. But I chose this one as the one I want to get, because it has a pet hair removal tool. I need one of those. Too bad it doesn’t take the hair off the pets. ...
Want an iPod Nano?
2008-02-01 23:34:00 Well check this out…. Money Blogger is giving away his beloved 8GB 3rd generation iPod Nano to a lucky individual. How can you get in on this action you ask? Easy! All you have to do is write a blog post about it…like I am right now, and then leave a comment on his site ... More About: Ipod , Contests , Blogging , Ipod nano
Sidebar Rearrangement
2008-01-31 21:09:00 I did a bit of sidebar rearranging so that Entrecard would be “above the fold” so that people see it first off. I also moved the AdSense ad up, even though that still has it “below the fold” oh well. I’ve never gotten a single click in all the time I’ve used AdSense on any ... More About: Work , Sidebar
Kids Screaming
2008-01-31 03:02:00 I am currently listening to my next door neighbors’ kids screaming their heads off. Why? Good question. All I know is that someone is apparently not wanting to clean up their toys, take a bath, or go to bed. At least that is what I would assume. In any case, it’s driving me absolutely bananas. ...

Good Grief
2008-01-29 07:49:00 I can see that people in North Texas have been having problems internet wise, considering most of my calls were from that area. And most of them were saying their internet was slow. Ok…. first…if you have a router, that will slow the connection down. Also, you’re on the same network as every single other ...

Wow
2008-01-28 21:08:00 Amazing what a little exercise can do. Besides making my legs hurt. Since the weather isn’t that bad, and I can’t find my Leslie Sansone walking DVD for some reason, I went outside and took a walk. Not a long one by any means, but I did take a walk. It’s a ...

I Am Fat
2008-01-27 21:35:00 This is something that I readily admit. I also readily admit that I need to take steps to remedy this situation. I found SparkPeople, which, if I would bother to use it, will allow me to have the same sense of community, meal plans, fitness plans, etc that eDiets did, but for FREE. I’m only ...
Record Keeping
2008-01-26 23:12:00 This year, I am making darned sure to keep records of each time I am paid for doing blogging work. Last year I didn’t and I just ended up having to sit here and go through my PayPal records for 2007 to get all the payment amounts and who paid me so I could have ... More About: Record , Cord
I Left My Heart?.
2008-01-26 10:44:00 Somewhere, but I’m not entirely sure of where. However, I HAVE visited San Francisco before. I think I was about 8 or 9 at the time and my grandmother and aunt had flown in from Iowa, where I now reside. My mom and dad planned a day trip to San Francisco and actually ...

Going to Goodwill
2008-01-26 10:33:00 I have a few things that I’m packing up and sending to Goodwill. First…some books that aren’t eligible for Paperback Swap due to being too damaged, even though they are still readable. Second, a TV that works, but is really fuzzy and can’t be used to hook up video game systems. I may end up ...
FINALLY!
2008-01-25 00:27:00 I have an actual diagnosis that does not include the words “viral infection” or “let it run it’s course.” Apparently the PA in the ER had one of the ER docs look at my sinus xrays from Monday, and the doc said it appeared him that I have a sinus infection! No kidding! I’ve been ... More About: Finally
Dead Animal Alert
2008-01-24 20:50:00 Oh, sorry, not one of my pets. Me. I feel like a dead animal. Or at least one that will soon be dead. I’m coughing, sniffling, gagging, puking, I hurt, I’m cold, and through all of this, I’ll have to go to work today because I can’t afford to be off again. Lovely. In any ...

2008-01-24 07:17:00 Well, I figured it was time for a new theme. I know the Godsmack one was only a couple of weeks old, but I was already growing tired of it. So I did this one. It’s smaller, more compact, more purple, and the image at the top is actually a close up view ... More About: Theme
Love PaperbackSwap?
2008-01-24 00:26:00 Hate my neighbors. You see, I had a book, Sam’s Letters to Jennifer by James Patterson, coming from a great gal at PaperbackSwap. The problem? She received the envelope back in the mail, saying the package was undeliverable, something about the address not being right or no one living at the address. Well, ordinarily I ... More About: Love
