I apparently have a bad habit of not letting terrible things die. Case in point: my latest contribution to YouTube. Yesterday, I took all the footage from the Beowulf movie I did in high school, and I mangled it into something you might consider avant-garde if you're on enough illegal substances. It's all really a lot of quick edits, reversed shots, and basically me saying "Look what I can do!" It takes a minute or so to really get going, but I think you'll get a laugh or two out of it.

GAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!! I have a number of words for today...they're all :censored: Today is the day that the collison shop was suppose to look over my car and make an estimate, so I'd know if it's gonna be reparable and I can get a rental car thru them, or if it's totaled and I need to rent a car in the meantime on my own. I waited patiently. Stayed off-line (I'm on dial-up) except for 10 min this morning. I waited. Drank tea for my throat. Waited. Chewed my nails. Had my IBS kick up again. And waited. Finally at about 3:30/4pm I called. They "looked it over but still had to put it up on the hoist," but they'd call me after they did. This meant that hadn't even really [u]looked[/u] and the :censored: thing yet. ARRRGGGHHH!!!!! So...I have no way to get to work by my start time tomorrow (6am) and will probably take a major hit on my record for calling in a day after I had a vacation day. [b][u]PLUS[/u][/b] I still have no idea what I'm gonna do for transportation to and from work. I called a friend of mine. She's gonna come over tomorrow after she launches off the kid to school to help me with this. But.... To rent a car, while you can pay with a debit card, almost all the rental companies around here still want a "real" credit card. Which I don't have as I've been trying to keep temptation away and not get myself loged so far in debt I can't get out. The company that will rent with either a debit card or a cash deposit, doesn't have anything available for another 4 days. At this point I just sat and cried. I have no idea what the f*ck I'm gonna do. I don't want to ask my friends to 'borrow' them and their card so I can get a rutting car, but it looks like I'll have to. And I know I'm a lot more overwrought about this than I normally would be as the hormone fairy is here and at that time, I overreact to the weather report. Well, I think I'm gonna play a bit to try to calm down so I can get to sleep as I'll need to get up early to call in and talk with my boss about the whole mess (she wasn't in on Friday) which will be a real treat. *sigh*

Hi there, I seem to have picked up an earache; which is a little bit annoying. The last time I had one was five years ago and my right ear spent a week bleeding. Then I had to have yet another operation. Hopefully it won't be as bad this time as the consultant says it's starting to improve. Speaking of which, I'm back at the hospital on the 8th March. These appointments come around far too quickly. I saw a lad that was in the same year as me at school today. I went to the heritage centre to get a copy of the 1901 Thornley census and he was there with his police partner. He recognised me straight away but I could not for the life of me remmebr his name until he told me. It's Michael Cornforth. Well that's all really. TTFN Jennifer -x-

Well we finally saw it...the sun. It was amazing. It was all shiny and bright and warm. The sky was blue. It was really cool ( only because we've had either snowstorms or clouds for the last 2 straight months.) SO that was lovely. Of course it then promptly snowed the next day, but the sun was really nice there for a minute.

Well my first blog entry and its gonna be a doosey! I stay away from most of the RWE Discussions because they all seem to end up as religious discussions. I used to love to get into those kinds of discussions. Not so much anymore. I was Baptised Catholic and as a child we did go to Church a little. As I grew older we went fewer and fewer times a year. As I reached my teens I began looking for a religion that made sense to me. I just could not understand how Someone/Something so powerful could be so ruthless and cruel, unforgiving, and down right sinister. Yeah I know that I will probably be flamed for that sentance but it is my blog so if you don't like what I have to say then just take a walk! Anyway, I have looked at Catholicism and Christianity. I have been an Atheist and Agnostic. I have looked at Wicca, Buddhism, Taoism and quite a few others. All trying to find something that made absolute sense. You know what there isn't one. They all make sense. None make sense! It all comes down to belief (or that is what they tell me). One must have [i]Faith[/i] that there is a God. One must [i]believe[/i] in a Higher Power. So Thursday is my Sister's Birthday. She would have been 35. You see she died may 10, 2006. She was 34 years old and she died! She was struggling to support her 14 and 10 year old sons because her deadbeat husband (that she was seperated from) was in prison and she died! She was just getting ready to attempt College to better support her sons and make a better life for herself and she died! She had just gotten engaged to a good person and she died! It was 2 days after her oldest son's birthday and she died! It was 4 days before Mother's Day and she died! The list goes on and on but it all ends the same.... AND SHE DIED! So I have a new take on Religion and I am sure that it will end me in Hell. I [i]HOPE[/i] that there is a God. I don't believe and I don't have Faith; I hope. I so want to meet this person. I want to walk right up to Him/Her and look Him/Her in the eyes.... and I want to kick the living (or dead (whatever)) shit out of Him/Her for what He/She did to my nephews and my family and too her. I can't believe in God or have faith because there is no way that God would do this to those boys or my parents or my little sister and brother. So I have to Hope that He/She exists and that I will get to meet Him/Her someday. Thanks for letting me get this off my chest. Now back to our regularly scheduled fun!

I'm a new convert. My brother has Firefly and Serenity on DVD and he let me watch them last week. Now let me tell you that I am a HARDCORE CSI fan. I've been watching CSI for nearly four years. I love all the fictional crime shows. But I didn't even get through the first episode on the first disc before I almost as deep in love with Firefly as I am with CSI. I say almost cuz I've loved CSI for years. And then my brother filled me in on what had happened with Fox and the idiots over there and I was :pissed:!

Well not new really......but # 2 and I have decided that since approximately 60% of the population of the US is said to live on the coast, well then this just PROVES that all the bits in the center - AIN"T there. Sorry. It has to be said. TruthisoutthereFutureMrsFillion
