Was probably not one of my finest days ever. It was just not my day. I was tired because I couldn't get to sleep last night for one, and two... the gorram Advanced Placement Statistics work we're doing in class makes absolutely no sense to me... which made me extremely irritable and frustrated, so when I went to my Chem. class I got a lecture from one of my gorram classmates who thinks she's God, and yet she only sounded like my mother, then in my literature class one of my friends (who I used as a punching bag after what he did to me today) and I aren't speaking to each other and I'm feeling extremely pugnacious. :fork: I had a bad day. Can you tell? Then later on... my parents had the nerve to try and argue with me about the stupidest things which just made me completely fly off the handle and I kept digging myself a bigger hole because I became so fed up with it all. My ex came up to me after whining like a pansy for a week after I broke up with him and cussed me out so I gave him the finger and walked away. During my lunch break I kept... dropping things. What the hell? Who just keeps... dropping things? The day just kept gettin better and better (using obvious sarcasm) and now I want to lock myself in my closet and never come out. Yep. Thanks if you actually read this whole thing without complaining about grammatical errors or anything and such. I just needed to vent somewhere. *sigh* I feel a little better. :smile:

Just wanted to say thanks for all the shiny story telling and character development. Mobbex you make Jayne seem damn near civilized. Real funny stuff. Abbey you gamer idea is a stroke of genius. Lots of opportunities for the crew to meet some unsavory types to do business with. (And something we can argue ethics over since they were your customers first) Oram, I like the more hometown doctor approach instead of top of the class. Nice touch. Wash, great flying and I appreciate you being the go to while I was gone, since we don't have a 1st mate yet. Brit and Invictus Crazy and caring as always. Like the immediate tenson between Brit and Abbey. Invictus I know you were without a connection for a few days. Looking forward to the interaction between you and the new crew. Next stop we pick up a mechanic finally. Also got someone interested in taking the 1st mate position. Should be soon. Thanks again Colt

This is a totally un-firefly related thing but I need a place as an outlet for my grief. This guy that I am friends with has cancer. His name is Stu and he is 23 this year. I met him over a year ago through my church and he is the MOST AMAZING PERSON I have EVER met in my entire life. He is so funny, so eccentric, so smart and imaginative and I know that if I ever meet my future husband I would love for him to be just like Stu. He has been struggling with his cancer since about October I think and I had read in his face book that things were looking better for him in the last month. Today my sister got an e-mail from his sister in law and she came to me with the e-mail printed out and tears in her eyes. Things have taken a turn for the worse for Stuart and the doctors are telling him that he might have 1-2 years if he is lucky. It makes my heart feel hollow when I think of him and what might happen. He is so loved and admired. When he started going through treatment and started loosing his hair his male friend s in support shaved their heads in support for him. His brother even recently got a tattoo of his face on his arm. The e-mail said that the cancer is not responding to treatment... but we all have hope. All of us supporting him are Christians and are constantly praying for him. I can't help but think of shepherd Book and his constant faith. When I start to feel discouraged I think of him and he inspires me, a believer in a god lost to the rest of society. If anything does happen to him I know that he is in God’s hands and I pray that God will let him stay with us a little while longer. If you believe in God and in the power of prayer, even though you don’t know him, PLEASE I BEG YOU PRAY FOR STU. He needs all the support we can give him. -WITH LOVE FROM ANNA, THE JACKAL

I've been getting back into my photography, and feeling pretty inspired lately. I decided to explore the theme of urban surroundings and objects this time around.

Anyway, I accidentally posted under Sky's username on the Virtual Firefly Crew thing... lol... :blush: Oops. Oh well. No biggie. I worked it out with the Capt. Hehe. Oh and Sky says "Hi" but I dont see why she doesnt just post it in her own Firefly log... lol, She says she's too lazy. Well anywho... thanks to those who left a comment on my last log. It actually helped more than you know! :smile: Well I'm gonna go now! See ya'll in the black!
