holy crap

...so, we leave cnn on all day at work, sound only, so I'm listening to Larry King live... and he's interviewing that beautyqueen or whatever who gave the ..."unpopular" answer to a question about gay marriage, andnow has a book called "still standing" ...
this bitch is either crazy or stupid.
He tried to ask her about her settlement and such involving being fired (I think) and all she'll say is that's confidential, and the real issue is they way the media victimizes conservative women, and Sarah Palin is her role model, and did I mention I wrote a book? **Giggle**
So he asked, when it came to light about your sex tape from when you were 17, and she interupts him that she's not interested in talking about that. He asks if she at least disclosed it to the miss america pagaent ppl, due to the morals clause in their contract, and she says... "that's not why I was fired. "
He knows that. That was not the question. Did she disclose it? "That is not why I was fired"
Repeat. He gives up.
Every question.... not the issue, I love Palin, I wrote a book. Giggle. (The giggle was unbelievably annoying)

Eventually, when he asked ANYTHING, she'd just respond with "That's confidential", eventually escalating to, "Larry, that's just not appropriate" (to a totally innocent question.) She even had a hissy fit and stopped talking to him when he took a phone call, cause apparently that was secretly against the rules.

Crazy.

Oh, by the way, women need to stick together, 'cause the media victimizes conservative women. But not liberal women. They have it easy. Everyone likes them. Yup. (I'm throwing this in with some other favorite ideas that I hear floating around... "black people can't be racist", "you can't understand opression like I do 'cause your ancestors owned slaves", etc. Sorry for the narrow focus there, those are just the 2 I hear most often. From uppermiddleclass types. And My family is french-irish and only in the US a few generations. ok, NOW I'm just bitching about pet peeves.)

Sorry about the amazing crappiness of this post, I'm typing while at work and listening to cnn

Don't you people use the internet?!

It has been 12 minutes since polls closed... WHY DOES THE NEWS SITE STILL SAY 0% OF PRECINCTS REPORTING?! HMMM?!
For God's sake people there are machines and computers and internet for a reason... so that I can know the answer NOW.
**to tense to wait much longer**

no on 1, please!

--EDIT--
That 11 pound kitten I mentioned in my last post? Well, I left my cat loving mother to feed him while I was away. He is now a 14 pound kitten. IT WAS ONLY 9 DAYS!

what have I been up to?

Not too much, really. Working, mostly. I've got a pretty good job, but financially life still sucks, so I'm gonna be looking for more...
Hmmm...oooo, my cats broke a window! don't know how, but they seem to have smashed out one of our window panes. It's two floors up, so it's not a security worry, but it is getting pretty damn cold outside...
Pluto-Panda is a big big baby now. He's an 11 pound kitty now... he was about 1 pound in the last pictures that I got to post! And he's sweet and loving, if a little annoying sometimes (he's only 7.5 months old though, that's normal.)
AND I'm going to Florida in a week and a half and an AFI concert in 3 days!
Good times...

INTERNET

I have a comp that works again.... OH GOD THANK YOU!

blah

computer still very, very nonfunctional. I am currently blogging from the library. The computer will probably never function again, taking all my pics and info with it to the computer abyss. And i hate this keyboard. sad day.

GRRRR

I work at the front desk of a hotel these days. I love it.

Except when I have to check in the people doing the petition to undo the new gay marriage law.
"Ooooh, 204, that's 6, 6 is death and destruction, can I have a different room?"

my life sucks

my brother just left to move to georgia without saying goodbye to me, because my mom forgot to tell me that he was leaving today and he didn't have time to come see me cause he'd planned on me being at my parents house

American Idol

Holy crap... I don't usually follow American Idol... ok, I've NEVER followed American Idol, but the guy that didn't win? Adam Lambert?
Holy crap.
He's good.

Beginning of summer update

So, I figured it was time for my semi-seasonal blog overhaul... it keeps me from getting bored. Damn fucking ADD.

Mostly just changed the colors, but I did a new "about me" quote stolen from despair.com, the demotivators section. Those things kill me, I hate pithy little motivational posters. Check it out, it's my desk top right now: Priorities.

Also worth noting: Blogging.

So, ya'll remember I quit my job? My new job is fabulous so far, and Bean has worked for them for one year next month, and still loves them (She's 23, and holding a job for more than 8 months set a record for her, to put that in perspective), so I'm feeling good here :D

Also, to go with the new job... new KITTEN!
He's my baby, made of love. I present to you, Pluto-Panda. (Pluto like the Roman god of death, and panda 'cause he's so cute and black and white. Hyphen because I couldn't just pick one. Half the time I call him Plu or Bubby)






And just because I can't stop laughing over it...

writers block?

Can I claim writer's block for blogging? Can't seem to muster anything, but I really want to write!
Hmmm, off to look up some topics... livejournal has prompts...

"Do you ever do anything now that you swore you would never do when you were younger? What is it?"
BAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
I don't think it's quite safe to answer that one.
What a stupid question though.
Ok, my serious answer: I have friends, and I give people second chances.
I didn't have many trustworthy friends when I was younger. I think it's common knowledge that children are, for the most part, naturally self serving and social climbers. It's a developmental stage. But I was sort of the one that got singled out as weaker... the gimpy gazelle, of sorts (pardon the random imagery).
When I moved two states away from those worthless cretins (I call them that because most of them are now in their 20's and acting EXACTLY THE SAME as middle and elementary school -_- ), I swore, 'no more friends.' I was fairly certain "real" friendship was a sort of fictional construct, similar to the relationships in romance novels.
Lucky me I screwed up ;)








AND alright, I'm outta here.
