boo

I guess this site is dead... See ya'll on facebook then!

Revival

I would like to propose we revive this blog somehow... Might I suggest that we email folks and let them know it's still kicking?

These past two years, we've all been moving to other parts of the country. I'd like to keep in touch with peoples if I could.

What say everyone or anyone?

I'll be posting later of meeting Jaime's parents and seeing the Pacific for the first time.

I Gooooo!!!!

So...for those of you who read this and don't know via Facebook....Brian and I are now officially engaged (as opposed to unofficially, which we were before). I think we will get married in Spring of 2010. I would try to be as awesome as our favorite Jessie and throw us a party just for the sake of having one, but everyone's all scattered about the country right now, so it would be a really lame party. Maybe sometime when we can get most of us in Madison we can have a party.

Or maybe we'll just see you all at our kick-ass-take-names wedding!!!

Just wanted to say...

My blog that had my schedule is back up!

Though, I had to redo it.

Right now it has October up. The blue parts are when I'll be in Wisconsin. Otherwise, the other parts are what I plan on doing.

I'll have more up later, when I have my planner with me.

Also, everyone in Madison should go to GeeKon this weekend. It's at Humanities. It's free. and Sari's doing a panel, which I'm sure will be awesome!

Take care everyone!

Republicans...Hypocrosy....Throw me bone!!!!

Last Friday night at the gym, I spent somewhere between 30 min- 40min convincing my friend to vote for Obama . Thank god there was not that many people around because it was a heated discussion. I could not understand how could anyone vote for a Republican when the Republicans ran this country for 8 years and did nothing, when the US unemployment rate is 5%-6%, and when Bush's popularity rating is the worst among all US presidents. Do the American people really think the Republican party is the only party that can fix American problems created by the Republicans?

My friend believes that Obama will raise taxes. Well...according to Obama's policies, he will lower taxes for middle and lower class while increasing tax on the upper class. Wow, a tax break for the middle and lower class!!!! McCain will also provide a tax break to middle and lower class but not as much as Obama's policies. In fact, with Obama's tax policies, middle class Americans will pay less tax by $500-$700 compared to McCain's tax policies. Maybe my friend did not understand that he is a middle class American or failed to do research on tax policies from each candidate.

He also stated that the money he earns, he should keep and believes in "Survival of the fittest". BTW, this is coming from a conservative Republican. WTF!!!!! From what I understand and see, the majority of Republicans are religious people and have small town values in which people help other people. So should not religious Republicans be charitable and help the less unfortunate people financially???? Better yet, should not a person with small town values help their fellow neighbor/other people financially too? WTF!!!! C'mon, a few hundred dollars won't kill you. The worst case scenario is you cannot take a 3rd or 4th vacation.

My conclusion of the Republicans and my friend is they are all full of hypocrisy. They preach Christian and small town ideals to make them look good but in the end they don't even practice those ideals. That is why I am always a Democrat and voting for Obama besides that fact that Obama is not a flip-flopper and not a liar compared to McCaine and McCaine's choice of V.P. Sarah Palin.

P.S. Please, vote in this coming presidential election and please analyze each candidate's solutions to American issues very carefully. United States needs a capable president with real solutions to real American issues.

Duuuuuuuuuuude

So, I'm here in Louisville seriously missing all your sweet asses. I'm finishing my degree so that I can go back to Madtown to go into a doctorate program.

I'm hoping I can get my studying done for the GRE so that I can get into said program.

Other then this, some people here are being awesome, others are being douches. Mostly I'm taking it day by day.

Oh, I'm also dating someone in Madtown. He's a sweetheart who treats me like the queen I am. ^_^ Okay, not really but he is awesome.

Oh, and I wish I were going to a con with you guys. That would be awesome! Hey, is anyone going to be in Madison come December? I will be and it would be great to do some form of get-together. I guess I can facebook it as well, and email, and well, I should call some of you... maybe.

I would love to see this revived since we are all over the place currently.

wow, it's been aaaages since i posted!

I'm goin to Otakon next week! I'm going to be yaoi Shikamaru and andy's going as yaoi Asuma and Steph's gonna be Gaara (yes! steph's coming to visit me too!!!)

So I'm excited about that, and I'm seriously seriously procrastinating on my paper that's due tomorrow. Ugh, I have to get a B in this class or else I'll get rejected by nursing school. So... I should probably go do that....

Hope everybody's doing good.

:)

Oh, they have this site and facebook blocked at my work so I can't keep in contact as much, but maybe when I'm back on a part time schedule and going to school it'll be easier. I'd like to revive this blog but it's hard when you've got studying to do and no access at work...

Just wanted to let you all know...

I just lost the game.

Thank you.

That is all.

For my beloved Sari:

Merff!!!

So, Careers Conference was a bust. I hated it, but it's over and done. I have the week to finish working there and then it will be blissful till May.

I'm glad to see other people posting, yay kitty!!

Speaking of cats, I will probably be parting with mine once I decide to leave. He loves Inky and Mel too much (and who could blame him?). I don't want to make him leave that which he knows.

In other news, the seminary apparently was hit by a tornado. Weee! So glad I'm not there right now. linky

I also got Rock Band and it is every bit of awesome that I thought it would be. :-)

Things are going way too fast, but I'm surviving. Mostly, I can't wait till this job is over. It's raping my soul, chewing it up, spitting it out, crapping all over it, and then throwing it into the sewer.

Huh, I thought the labels suggested would change from season to season, seeing as how it's not fall anymore. Meh, oh well.

Okay, maybe I'm exagerating a little, but not much.

Expanding the Family

No.....not having children. God help them when that happens.


Brian and I are getting a cat. I'm still not sure how I feel about that, since I'm still not sure overall how I feel about cats. This one has a story though, so I felt bad for it. My co-worker's voice teacher is moving in with her partner (the one with the cat) and she has 2 dogs AND is allergic to the cat. So, her partner needs to get rid of the cat. She didn't want to give it to a shelter, because (here's the part where I couldn't let it just go to a shelter) when she was living in California, there were alley cats behind their office building and apparently one of them had gotten into the ceiling and had kittens. So, she heard a lot of mewing from inside the wall one day, and found out that this cat and his sister had fallen down into the wall. She had the maintenance people come and tear out a big section of the wall panels and she took them home. She found someone who wanted the sister cat, but not this one.....and so she's had him for 5 years. So..........now he's coming to live with us. He comes with the name Sprite, but we (being the anime lovers we are) are re-naming him. He's gray and white, so we can't name him Kyo (cause it wouldn't work). We thought about naming him Haru, but Haru is a cow, not a cat.....maybe if he were spottier...........So (though he looks NOTHING like this cat) we've decided to name him after the cat in The Prince of Tennis and call him Kalpin. We're picking him up on Sunday.......and then I will have a cat.

He looks like this:

Just wanted to share.

Hello!

Hey, guys.  I'm visiting Madison Dec 26-30.  I'll be working most of the time, but I'm going to Lelah's party on the 29th (my day off), Iris's birthday party night of the 30th, and maybe the 'dise for a bit if any of that set is going.  What's everybody else up to?  Any great holidays?  Any yule-tide nightmares?  Anybody celebrate Winter Solstice?  Jon mentioned sacrificing a goat, but I just ate goat ice cream instead.  We were lazy.  I think goat ice cream involves some personal sacrifice, if not goat morbidity.  It can be tasty, but it took a little acclimation.  I think I'm going to avoid paying for foods that involve effort to enjoy.  The weather was pretty nice after I ate it, so maybe we can all put blood-shed behind us.  Maybe not.  I really don't know anything about Winter Solstice beyond the day length and Jon's quips.  Mmm...back to work.  I miss you guys.  

Holidays!!!!

Thought I'd wish y'all a happy lots of food this weekend...and by that I mean Thanksgiving. I hate it when people say "Turkey Day".....what if you don't EAT turkey on thanksgiving. Some people have tofurkey, some people have ham, my friend Jessi's family has rock lobster. That's not turkey.....but, I digress (I just had 3 cups of coffee + Kahlua at the office.......I like this office). Regardless, everyone make sure to eat lots of food in celebration of this great country of gluttony. And if anyone happens to be in the Milwaukee area this weekend, give me a call!
