The end of Buffy
Tuesday, 30 May 2006 00:12:33

Just watched the last couple of episodes of Buffy, Seen some of them before, but my viewing of season 7 had been scetchy as best before. Just loved seeing Nathan in action again, liked him alot. Hated kennedy pretty much all the time, kept wanting Tara to return and take her place. And the roleplaying scene, made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, on of the funniest moments in buffy histori. And Spike ofcourse. Going to watch the last 4 episodes of Angel soon to, havent seen those before, wonder how it will go.

Reflections on Memorial Day...
Tuesday, 30 May 2006 02:13:28

Did you know… Only 27% of Americans even know what Memorial Day is FOR? Can you believe that? For anyone who is not from the U.S., Memorial Day is the day set aside to honor our fallen soldiers…those who gave their very lives in service to this country. To honor these brave men and women, Americans take a day off from work, make it a long weekend and spend the day getting drunk out of their heads around the grill or at the beach. My friends, my brothers and sisters in arms…they died so we, as Americans, could have the right to IGNORE their sacrifices. Today I spent the day in Thomasville, NC. “Where is Thomasville?” you might ask? I’ll tell you. Thomasville is a tiny little Podunk town in North Carolina…a town a little bit smaller than my living room. They are also the ONLY town in ALL of North Carolina who organized Memorial Day activities. Oh, sure…all over the country there were little services and such, but in North Carolina, only ONE TOWN had a parade, or a COMMUNITY organized Memorial Service that the TOWN paid for. I guess everyone in Raleigh, Greensboro or Charlotte was too busy getting drunk at the beach. There is apparently a MySpace group called “Fuck The Troops”… I won’t bore you with their uninformed diatribes. I will, instead, say only this… I will lay down my life to defend their right to defame the memories of the soldiers who have fallen. Do I agree with them? Of course I don’t. Do I think they’re all a bunch of ungrateful morons? You better believe I do. But I believe in this country, and despite the failings of our President and his staff, I believe in the ideals this nation was founded upon, even if, every day, we are assaulted by the words, sounds and images of those who would exploit those rights and privileges for their own selfish ends. I’ll be honest with you…some nights I lie awake and wish that my name could be listed among the fallen. That way, I would have been remembered well…and not returned home a broken shell…unable to let people get close to me again…fucking up every relationship I had…driving people who I love, and who once loved me, to abandon me out of fear, or a desire to protect themselves from the person I’ve become. But I was not destined for Valhalla, it would seem. So now I wander, lost and hurting, broken and wounded both inside and out, wondering when I’ll stop feeling like this…

Need help with fic formatting!!
Tuesday, 30 May 2006 14:51:54

Hi - Any html experts out there? I need to do a few formatting things with my fic, and I've tried playing around with html and bad things happen! The things I want to do are: Have indented, single spaced paragraphs, like for quoted verse (as in poetry verse, not uni-verse :p) Right justified paragraphs. Tables. I've tried putting in tables, but it changes the font of the text in the table into something big and annoying, ahh! I really want a tabbed environment, and I thought a table could do it. Someone in the pet peeve thread mentioned there's a mouse-over tag that could be used to show the definition of chinese characters?? I'd love to be able to do this! Please please help! Thanks!

Tuesday, 30 May 2006 17:50:21

Ok I have taken 6 different versions of the which firefly chracter are you and I keep coming up as Mal. Hmmm I really really see myself more as Kaylee and wish desperately to be Inara. Why am I Mal? Random pondering moment... or possibly serious insanity due to last week of school trauma. I seriously think the students are developing psychosis before my eyes...I may be projecting

Pneumonnia is my friend
Tuesday, 30 May 2006 18:27:45

Or it wants to be, considering the fact that I have Bronchitis and or Walking Pneumonia at least 3 times a year. I have been coughing now for about the last 3 weeks, getting no better - in fact worsening. I have had to leave my second job or call in no less than 4 times in that time period. I am about over it. I am going to the DR today to get some antibiotics. Yes, I know I should have gone sooner, but I really don't want to have to incur yet another bill I can not pay. I am now told that my court date is set for Aug 4. So now one cares that the kids are barely hanging by a thread. Well no one that can do anything about it. I saw court doccuments lately in which HIMSELF has stated that he can not pay alimony or spousal support because he has to pay back a $5000 loan for an engagement ring for the bigamist spouse as well as pay her back $5700 for the attorney to annul their marriage. OK everyone pity party for HIMSELF....1....2.....3........sorry, just can't bring myself to care.

Headaches
Tuesday, 30 May 2006 23:48:05

Got two major headaches at the moment. The first, and most anoying since it makes thinking hard, is a real full blown physical type headache. The other is more of a problem type headache. Seems my brothers LARP character got killed of and he refuses to attend the LARP this weekend, even worse hes taking the car to see our parents instead, which means I cannot attend the last LARP this group is holding. Even worse two of my friends who were going with is are also stranded here and ill have to explain the status for them and the gamemasters who are going to throw a fit since ive already promised them that were comeing. Oh well. Played some Post Apocalyptic RPG today, bit hard to concentrate with the headache though. Going to bed now, dont think I have enough stamina to watch any Angel today :disappointed:
