Found this on someone's blog, thought it was awesomely insane and random.
In the year 2007 I resolve to:
Make my own porn video
Context: I woke up from a dream on Monday morning and wrote this. Warning: Rough draft. Warning: minimally edited.
There is morre to the story that follows, I can feel it. I just need to get my fingers on the keyboard for an hour or two in a quiet time.

Her name was Lya, she came from the desert, as they all had, to find a trade to support herself.
So Ben & I were out to dinner last night, and he asked the waitress "What three cheeses are in the three cheese lasagna?"
The waitress says "Um... Mozzarella, American, and
She goes wandering off and asks another member of the waitstaff about 10 feet away, who says "Mozzarella and Parmesan on top, ricotta in the lasagna."
Well, good news for me, at least. We set a "you have to get out of our house" date for my sister-in-law. 5 months is a bit long to expect someone to feed & house you for free, and it will be 6 months by the time she leaves. It's probably 2 months too late for us to part amicably, but at this point, the goal is to get her the hell out of my house. It was this IM conversation that made me realize how annoyed Ben was with her, and he's her brother.
If you are leaving then I wish you luck
I hope someone can make your heart warm
I was a baby when I learned to suck
But you have raised it to an art form"Wind it up", Barenaked Ladies
Ah, the double entendre from the 'Ladies. I've been listening to them on the commute.
The first week of the new shift has been awesome. I do less. I get paid more. And the crew I work with is insane. Tonight's score: me 2, rich 1, stu 0, scoot 1.
We don't generally go to movies. We've got other things going on, for the most part, and for the rest of it, dropping $20 to see parts of a movie (with children shrieking, people yakking through the film, cellphones ringing, etc.) that may or may not be worth seeing doesn't really appeal.
That aside, GO SEE LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE. GO NOW. Stop reading this JE and go.
Still alive.
Work: changing shifts to gain the 15% shift diff mid-october. 15% more for doing 40% less... ok. can do. Lappy comes along for the ride.
Birthday: last wednesday. really good. new camera. See it on dA if you're interested. It rocks. The tea rocks as well. And the new sunglasses, well, they rock, too. Oh, and the new BNL album... doesn't rock, it's more mellow.
All, I am happy to announce the internal promotion of [the guy you can't stand] to NOC Supervisor effective September 3, 2006.
Stop by and congratulate him when you get a chance!

Archive.org to the rescue. Stupid script kiddies hit my crazymonkeycreations site, and a friend's site, too. replaced all our index.php's.
Dumbasses.
It does little to improve my mood today.
I spent an hour or so working on my knitblog; changing the 'look', writing a shortened version of how i feel about the explosion. I'm tired now.
Today, I've taken my vitamin, my st johns wort, and a claritin. Something's gotta give.
Off to zap my leftovers.
Obviously no one else can do the work.
So, if you fail something over, you create a ticket. Nice, shiny, happy, ok. The ticket gets closed after the fail back, right? You know, at night, right after you have all the customers online. No? Well, just leave it for days.
My knitting group self-destructed sometime Friday night.
We had a yahoo group, and recently, the missing moderator/owner appeared with a new list of "THIS IS WHERE WE MEET, NO CHANGES!" and "THESE ARE THE RULES! NO TALKING ABOUT ANYTHING BUT KNITTING!" Hardly the group I joined, where we all had a hand in deciding where to meet, and could talk about anything, but I thought, "whatever".
So, Ben & I were discussing voting on the 'Word of the Week' (it's a contest on dA -- see this url for more info about it). Slightly edited IM logs follow.
Me:
i voted for um... the wallpaper and the rose, i think
Benny:
Hmm
"The Wallpaper and the Rose"
Me:
once upon a time, there was a roll of wallpaper....
I'm sure y'all were all wondering, and worried. NOT.
Well, I got back from vacation, slogged through 7 grueling days of work, and promptly got sick. WHEE. I'm feeling better today than I've felt in a week, and I'm still sounding like a freight train's rumble when I talk. BUT. We're going camping tonight with some friends from dA, and going for a hike tomorrow.
