After getting the inspiration to read Tom's blog from beginning to end, I said that I wouldn't do that with mine because I'm not that starved for entertainment. So what did I go and do? Yep... I read my whole damn blog. Good grief, I am a whiny, long-winded biddy. I'm sorry, you guys. I really had no idea. *L* Tomorrow I read Moni's blog... For now, I sleep.

I suppose that it might help...

Adventures in Idiotspotting, Chapter 1

2004-05-01T20:27:00.000-04:00

I take great pride in the knowledge that I am not an idiot. I strive to maintain, at the very least, a smidgen of common sense and logic in all matters. Unfortunately, as luck would have it, the great majority of the world's population does not even attempt such lofty goals. It is with this in mind that I present to you the first of many (and I do mean many) diatribes against the stupid.

The mania remains:

2004-04-19T20:19:00.000-04:00

I feel it returning. That sense of dysphoria... the frustration of not being able to control my thoughts or actions. I find myself falling into the old routine. I went to sleep, finally, at 4:30 this morning. I was awake at 7:30 am. I felt overwhelmed and sick by 11:30 am and fell asleep on the couch. I've been getting floaters (those weird eye blobs that you see when you close your eyes)

Ugh. I hate sinus infections. I also hate pollen. I feel as if my head is in a vacuum. Or, perhaps it's just that I'm vacuous by nature and am just now coming to grips with that. I don't know. I have my friends who need me right now and I just can't keep myself lucid long enough to be helpful to anyone. I hate it when I'm like this. In conclusion - I love you all. I'm just sick - and

Your Sign Is: Curves Ahead You've got a lot of sex appeal, but you don't overplay it. You know you're hot. And you don't have to prove it to anyone else.

There is a hole in my life. A hole that I haven't been able to fill. I want children. My husband and I have been hoping to get pregnant for years now. We've been married for nearly 6 years and we're still young and relatively healthy. I want nothing more than to hold our child in my arms, but as of yet I have been unable to conceive. I have PCOS, and I deal with that daily. I've been

Sure, there is more noise, more clutter, more everything than I am used to, but to be perfectly honest, it's all worth it. I don't feel that need to be on the computer all the time.

Now, I know that it's this cold in other places - even colder in fact - but let's face it, I might as well be outside. Yes, we have storm windows in, but they don't seal properly.

All I'm willing to say is that you should never kick a person when they're down - figuratively or literally. If it happens again, a certain someone's leg will be relocated to their ass. That is all.

I had that moment tonight. It came so suddenly. So unexpectedly. It came to me out of a morbid sense of curiosity. I was sitting here in my chair and everything in my life was normal. Absurdly so.

Just a quick update. I'm starting to feel a bit better. The sun finally came out for the first time in days. I've needed some light in my life. I'm actually feeling well enough to grill some steaks for dinner. I've got a handful of shrimp that I'll put on skewers to grill as well. I'll work on something a bit more substantial later. I've got something in mind about spiritual vampires

Yes, kiddles... it's Wednesday once again. Today's lyrics are not necessarily a dedication, in so much as it is the song that I've listened to the most throughout the night: Dreams - Grace Slick Oh I, I believe in magic and I believe in dreams Until I heard the thunder rumble I saw the mountains crumble - Then came the circus so I followed it's parade With all the fancy lion tamers, high-wire

Tonight I lost it. I wanted to scream, cry, throw things... I didn't throw things. But the screaming and crying came quite liberally. I have a doctor's appointment in exactly 12 hours. I'm frightened. I'm scared, as usual, that there will be something new and different wrong with me. Or, as is my usual track record with new doctors, a declaration that it's all in my head. I have an

2003-05-31T07:22:00.000-04:00

Ok, I think I have the comments thingy working. So, have at it, folks!

2003-05-31T05:28:00.000-04:00

Never let it be said that I do not possess a modicum of patience. I just spent the last few hours tinkering around with the code for my blog. Yes, I know that there are probably several mistakes along the way, but it displays properly on my monitor. That is what counts. I have a code to allow comments, but I'm scared to add it. It will probably wind up throwing the whole damned page off

2003-05-29T06:56:00.000-04:00

Grrr.... I don't know if my blog is working for the rest of you, but it's playing hide and go seek with me. What is the point of ranting and raving if you can't see it? Wait... that might be a good thing. ::insert rolly eye guy here::

2003-05-28T07:50:00.000-04:00

Oh yeah, it's Wednesday, isn't it? You Owe Me Nothing in Return - Alanis Morrisette I'll give you countless amounts of outright acceptance if you want it I will give you encouragement to choose the path that you want if you need it You can speak of anger and doubts your fears and freak outs and I'll hold it You can share your so-called shame filled accounts of times in your life and I won't

YAY! Dancing Barefoot has arrived at Wil's house! He shipped out the first 100 yesterday. I know that I wasn't in that select few. Damn me and my lollygagging about. Oh well, it matters not. What matters is that they are now being shipped and I should get my copy soon! *rubs grubby little paws together in anticipation* Now you have to buy a copy too. When I start throwing quotes around

Another TMI post from your resident bitch. Meh. We're finally reaching spring like weather. With spring comes new depressed thoughts. I WANT A BABY! We're sporadically TTC, but I don't want to have to TTC. I want to be like all the other young things who get preggo just by sharing a bar of soap with a man. It's not fair! Life's not fair. And I'm a pissy whiny baby. I have not used a

Since I missed the Wednesday dedication, it's been pushed to Monday. A holiday two-fer, if you will.... Maybe I should have waited until tomorrow. Twofer Tuesday always sounds cool. This morning's select tracks: Never is a Promise - Fiona Apple You'll never see the courage I know Its colors' richness won't appear within your view I'll never glow - the way that you glow Your presence

I really love my shoes. :-D So I'm a complete dork. You should have already known that by now. It's been a very long week. I'd like to say that I accomplished many things during this time, but I'm afraid that I can't do that. I spent far more time being a complete lump, cuddling with dogs and watching satellite tv, than I have doing, well, anything! The highlight of my week was a visit

2003-05-25T18:00:00.000-04:00

Yeah, I know. I've been bad. I haven't posted in over a week now. I'll do updating later, when I have more time on the net. In the meantime... Feel free to admire my shoes. I managed to strike a compromise between fashion and form and bought these lovelies for the wedding. More later........

You are a Mod. Yeah baby. What kind of Sixties Person are you? brought to you by Quizilla

Miss Olivia says that I cannot keep the dress. *pouts* But, she commands pics, so it looks like you will all definitely be getting a show. We drove into Jersey tonight for the final tux fitting. The view of the Pocono Mountains as you cross the DWG bridge never fails to steal my breath away. The interstate actually curves around the mountains so closely that you could almost reach out and

Remember me mentioning that I would post pics of me in the wedding outfit if I didn't look like a drag queen? Well, guess what boys and girls? Tonight, I got the perfect outfit. I borrowed it from a drag queen. The irony does not escape me. When I say, perfect outfit, I truly mean it. It's absolutely gorgeous. It's something that I would have never picked for myself. It's a black,

Hey kids. I've decided to add a new feature to my increasingly boring blog. The "Wednesday Song Dedication". I post a song that I'm listening to, and you get to figure out who it's dedicated to... Sounds like a real riot, huh? Since I don't have easy access to Casey Kasem, this will have to do. untouchable face - ani difranco think i'm going for a walk now i feel a little unsteady i

For those of you who know me, you may find this disturbing. I don't have anything to say. I called Mom at work for Mother's Day. The first time that I phoned, I thought I had dialed the wrong number. A rather confused elderly lady answered the phone. This should have tipped me off that I had the right place, but it threw me for a loop. "Oh, I'm terribly sorry. I was trying to reach (blank)

I am such a dork. I figured out that you can't change the email address in the mailer script to something other than a lycos email address. I'll fix that later when I have time to monkey with it. I've determined that I've officially lost my mind. Not a single day goes by where I don't completely FUBAR something. I'm having difficulty controlling my emotional outbursts. I'm holding so much

2003-05-08T02:37:00.000-04:00

Hmmm... I got this information in an email this morning. Despite my general dislike of pigeonholing anyone based on their sign, numerology number, well, generally for any reason... I found that the information for July (my birth month--and don't forget it, because I like presents *hehe*) was pretty much dead on. So, take a peek. I put a mailer form at the top of the page so that you could

2003-05-08T01:58:00.000-04:00

*sigh* 25 minute post was just eaten by the blogger demon. You'd think I'd know better than to type that much without using Wordpad. Grrrr.... Will retype today's rant when I'm feeling more patient. eta: sure, you take this one... you bastards!

2003-05-02T16:15:00.000-04:00

Speak of the devil... The baby boy just woke up... so much for the rain. *hehe*

There is a heaviness in the air. An emotional weight. A meteorological weight. The sky is dark. The wind is whipping the trees back and forth. The sky appears that it is ready to fall. In my Chicken Little existance, it already has. We cannot stay here. Her landlord had a fit this morning. The lease was violated and we have to leave. Luckily, they are good tenants and will not lose

Ugh. I hate being sick. I caught my nephew's cold type thingy and have felt completely miserable for the last 24 hours. I managed to sleep for 12 hours straight last night/today, and still fell asleep after dinner. I was teasing Monica, and told her that I think I have SARS. With my luck, I'm probably right. *hehe* I haven't been able to spend more than a few minutes outside at a time, so

Dang.... 1280x1024 screen resolution. Either one of my readers has a huge honking monitor or freakishly amazing eyesight. I tried it out. I'm now using 1024x768 res. It's not too shabby. I certainly see a great deal more per screen, but what really gets me is that the clarity of the characters. Everything seems so much more crisp. I would leave it like this, but I'm sure the boy will

(entry #2 for today) Speaking of mother... when we last spoke, she told me that I will have to make a trip south soon. My grandfather is not well. He spent some time in the hospital, where it was determined that he had sepsis. This is disheartening. My grandfather is this cranky, old, wrinkled Southern Gentleman. He's the most difficult person in the world to live with. He fusses, he pouts

In the sober light of day, my body aches. In the sober light of day, my soul aches. In the sober light of day, I long to be free. In the sober light of day, I long to be me...again. I got an e-card from the man this morning when I checked my email. It told me of love, support and reminders of reclaiming lost pleasures. I wonder if he's now aware of my little internet sanctuary of insane

2003-04-26T21:11:00.000-04:00

I am drunk. Consider yourself warned... . . . . . . . I'm very, very drunk for the first time in a long time. I'm incredibly horny (what a funny word) and he's not budging. Motherfucker! This is just so wrong... I'll just drink until I pass out... I was going to jump him like a hyena on a sick ox when he got back from fishing, but he just shrugged me off..... BASTARD!

You can take the girl out of the country, but you can never take the country out of the girl. After lunch (the reason that I was awoken after being asleep for only 3 hours), I took a shower to rinse away some of the jumbled thoughts and emotions of the last several days. I dressed in my most comfortable clothes and sat in front of the computer to write today's blog entry. My mind went blank,
