Weekend Randomness

At this point, I'm fairly sure that my wacky computer problems are over. So, we are back to random shit that doesn't really matter. It's much more fun!{new quote! look up!}

Did I ever tell ya'll how much I love Saturdays? The cartoons are awesome! Winx Club is the only a.m. show I've been watching lately. Dragon booster and witch are still re-runs...UGH. Cartoon network has new cartoons lately. Did I ever tell ya'll how much I like anime? As long as there's some sort of magic, I'm game. Full metal is getting better and better. There's a new one called Naruto...it's a ninja cartoon. Odd story line, yet still amusing. s-CRY-ed is just odd. It just ended. There's a new one I just saw today. Called IGPX. Think nascar+robots. A little demolition derby, some skates, well it's interesting anyway. I'm gonna reserve judgement, no magic.

Books are awesome. Julie Garwood is my new favorite author. Her books are quite funny, yet have great sex. I found a few new authors this last round at the library. Books are due back next saturday. I get to borrow more!

I'm frustrated with my bead stuff at the moment. It seems the wire isn't as sturdy as it thought it was. I'm unsure exactly what's going on with it. I think maybe the crimp beads manage to weaken it. Problem to be solved then pondered. It's only my anklets that got broken. That could be because I never took them off. Hmm.

I had the urge to draw today. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything I wanted to draw. I have decided to do some dragons next. All my dragon pics are on a disc waiting to be reloaded. We'll see. They should be fun to color. Especially since I now have gel crayons. They're very smooth. Reminds me of oil paints. I have some canvas paper I'd like to draw on, but I need to figure out what to use for color on it. I don't think crayon would look nice on it. Even though they are my favorites.

I'm looking forward to messing around with graphics again. We'll see. I have yet to have the chance to actually mess with that photoshop program. I got to open it once. Had no idea what was going on. Trial and Error here we come. I'm hoping to figure out if it does animations or not. I think I'm gonna draw the dragons I'll use to re-outfit my page. Could be fun. You never know. It's either that or ya'll will get stuck seeing carebears. I do sooo love them. My newest one is a latchhook kit thingy of luck bear. He's my favorite. Don't panic, I won't torture ya'll with that. I think I need to stretch the header. It looks kind of weird at 200px. Like I smashed it or something. Think I'll go for 400px.

I have to clean my house. Not looking forward to it. I've been out of sorts for the last month. Not sure if it's because I didn't have my computer for distraction or if it's something else. I've been withdrawing a bit more than usual. I need to figure that out. Haven't been able to yet.

The kids missed halloween. It rained. Mikel has a cute little dragon costume and Steven has Tigger. They got to wear them, just didn't go anywhere. Once I've got everything up and running I'll be taking pictures.

Not looking forward to Thanksgiving. Ever felt like an outsider at a family holiday? Yes, that's me. They disapprove of me since I 'let' my kids get into things at my house. They are well behaved elsewhere. For some unknown reason they are under the impression that one person can watch 2 kids 24 hours a day, nonstop, without them getting into any kind of mischief. Pleeeeeeeze! The kicker....hubby agrees with them, then admits to me that even HE can't keep them out of stuff when he watches them by himself. He's a mite to agree-able sometimes. Ah well, I'm not perfect either. I also have to start organizing reunion stuff too. That's gonna be iffy. I'll do my best though.

Haven't talked to grandma since her last letter. Still not ready to either. My father is apparently divorcing the bitch. Not my problem. I don't care. Makes no difference to me. Doesn't change my feelings one bit. Forgiveness just isn't in me. Can't do it. Can't go back there. I don't like that dark place. No one will force me or guilt me into going there. I do mean NO ONE! Reference to all that shit is in the archives...somewhere.

Well, on that happy note, we'll end. Have a nice 'rest of the weekend'. Talk to ya'll later!
