Grrrr!

I was going to try to be positive all week. So this morning I found a huge scrape on the right lens of my nearly new glasses. I have to wear the glasses if I want to see!! And the scrape was right in the spot you look through.

I had a massive headache on the way to work, with staring through a scraped lens. Got through work(Yay boss!) and then I drove over to the VisionWorks to get them to replace the lens. Although originally they said $150 would get me two sets of glasses, they admitted they could replace one lens only for $80. Yes, I'm highly aware that it's a much better "deal" to get two sets of glasses for the $150, but I don't have that much.

I've read my stash of comics. I really really want to find a few that are missing right before or after.. and there's a spot or two that doesn't make sense. In one issue this and this happens.. and the next issue it reads like I've skipped about ten issues or more? Sigh. I found two to fill in.

I'm tired, I've not been sleeping well, but it's normal.

My boss got me the coolest pink stuffed lizard. I'm gonna carry it around everywhere! I'm posting a pic of me wearing it on my head.. cause you know, I like to look cool.

Now hear this...

So today I discovered something really seriously distressing. You cannot, and I'm not joking here!, CANNOT see yourself blink in real time. Yes!! I know!! Try it a few times if you like!! You can't do it! You can see yourself wink, you can see yourself ALMOST blink, but you can't see yourself blink, even if you clean the mirror really super well.

For some unknown reason(ok ok, it's cause I'm OCD and freaky weird), this newly discovered fact really bugs me. I know I could film myself, but that's watching it happen on video and therefor it loses something in the transfer.

In other news, I went and had lunch with my friends, the wife/daughter of my friend who died on friday. They've all been such wonderful friends, and I want to be there for them, whatever I can do. We ate food. Talked a lot, and then they took off to go yell at the insurance company.

I stopped at a textbook store, which also carrys comics, and they had a wall shelf full of $0.50 comic books. WTF?? Who carrys $0.50 comics? And these were not tattered rip-offs. These were mostly newer issue, perfect shape comics, and they had a lot of the new GI Joe titles. So yes, I have some comics, and I also picked up a paperback book, that is a prequel to the movie GI Joe Rise of Cobra. Dunno how good it'll be, and it's of course set in the movie-verse.. but we'll give it a whirl! I was amazed at how much of the GI Joe stuff I already had. Disappointing a little, but I've got a lot of new stuff I didn't have, and got it sooooo cheap, I don't even feel bad for spending money.

And I have leftovers for dinner! Country fried steak, with mashed taters and gravy. I ate the corn on the cob at the resturant.

On the downside, my crickets are dying off at a alarming rate. I'll have to order more, and order smaller ones this time so they don't all die of old age before I feed them off. The cricket bin REEKS. I can't clean it, because although I have another bin, I don't have packing tape to run around the top to prevent them from climbing out. It's one of those "for want of a nail, the universe imploded" things that are so very common in my life.

I've written even MORE on the fic, and I have over 50 reviews on it. Over 46,000 words long, I've posted only 13 chapters of it so far. I've almost posted one chapter per day, while most authors update their fictions about once a week to once every couple months! My readers are spoiled! If anyone is interested in reading the fic, here's the link:

And I included a picture of some of the confederate roses, I really love the blooms. When they open in the morning, they are ivory white. By late evening they are deep pink. Each bloom lasts only a day or so, but the bush has a lot of blooms on it.

And... that's about it!

So this is me blogging!

Hey all! So here I am, with a blog! I've been tormenting people for years via email, and etc. Now I'm guessing I can spread my insanity faster!

Let's see.. lately I've been working, which is good, cause I have bills to pay. Work has been decently busy, enough that on saturday after I get off work I'm exhausted and drained, and need to drive home and die to death.

My DIADS status is still green, but occasionally it looks doubtful. Oh.. DIADS = Dead In A Ditch Somewhere, for those that do not speak wolfy-ese.

I had fruit and cheese for dinner several times in the last week, but also had fast food twice! Bad bad Wolfy! Shame.

Right now the big monitor lizards are outside in the big pen, enjoying sunshine, although it uncharacteristically rained on their little heads this morning. The neighbors were supposed to be mowing my yard today, but since it rained, I don't know when.

I wrote a total of approximately 35,000 words on storys in the last week. This is only counting final word counts, not stuff I wrote and deleted. I posted 3 fic storys, all GI Joe(my currant obcession). Pretty much all of them got great reviews, which pleases me greatly.

I re-read from the beginning my favorite online comic. Check it out.. http://www.lfgcomic.com/page/1

Umm... oh, and I have a ninja shirt coming soon. When I get it and I figure out how to post pictures, I'll do so! I'll try to put up a favorite LOLcat picture

for practice.

I think that's enough for my first blog, but keep coming back and I'm certain I'll get more interesting!
