1. We got the check for the second half of Carla's financial aid yesterday, woohoo!
2. I signed up for yuletide and even got my Yuletide letter written (I wanted to have it written first so that I could include the link in my signup requests). It was pretty tough to choose which fandoms to offer to write for, because once I'd written my letter about my requests, I was really psyched to write those ideas. Which, um. Not exactly helpful. *headdesk*
I signed up for one fandom I've written before, but a character I haven't written, as well as one fandom I have written in, but which I seriously doubt will get any requests. The rest of my offers (maybe ten fandoms) are all new to me. I generally try to write new stuff, because that's a big part of the fun of Yuletide for me.
3. Maru jumping in and out of things. |

thedivinerpg is a brand new panfandom RPG with a twist you've never seen before. We just opened this November 1st and we are looking for a cast of characters from the Lost fandom to come join us for some otherworldly fun.
Premise ♦ Rules ♦ Cast ♦ Application ♦ FAQs ♦ Members & PBs ♦ Wishlist ♦ Torment Log
thedivinerpg ♦ pubparadiso ♦ thecomedy In the 14th century, Dante Alighieri gave the world a glimpse into Hell. But, like medieval Florence and everything around it, Hell has changed, and unlike Earth not necessarily for the better. However even across the span of centuries some things remain steadfast – the despair is tantamount, the torture ironic, pity is scarce, reprieve impossible – Abandon all hope ye who enter here.
This is a literature and live-action panfandom RPG that takes character torture to a whole new level.
If you have any questions or concerns feel free to comment to this entry or contact the mods at either madestatic@gmail.com or morbidly.gwenny@gmail.com.
Opened November 1st 2009

Just what I need. My Linux machine is throwing Kernel Panics. Guess there goes this weekend. Instead of doing something fun, I get to research this problem, trying to diagnose what's going on, and wonder where I'm going backup the files I've been backing up on my Linux machine.
EDIT: Looks like a memory problem at first glance. Grand. I think I have a couple of DIMM's somewhere. Grr.
EDIT 2: And now nothing displays on the screen. It's apparently "out of sync." I think this may be a motherboard issue, but I'm not fooling with it any more tonight. |

From here...After months of struggle capped by a final wrenching compromise over abortion, Speaker Nancy Pelosi predicted, "we will pass health care reform," and likened the events to the creation of Social Security in 1935 and Medicare 30 years later. You mean the two government programs that are currently bursting at the seams, threatening to rock the economy and citizens of the U.S. in ways that could easily eclipse the start of the recession last year, one of which your reform bill hopes to fix? Think before you burble, woman.
I'm not saying that health care reform will explode, but at least...I mean...You're basically saying, "Today, I will launch a new kind of transport, the kind that will go down in history like the Titanic and Hindenburg." YOU JUST DON'T DO THAT! |

I forgot to mention the happiest thing yesterday! After waking up Thursday to find that I'd been slapped with a $49 fee on an old credit card because they've decided to charge a yearly membership fee if you don't use the card, I called to see if I could get it reversed. The guy gave me no trouble about reversing it, but said he would have to cancel the card to do so. Fine with me, since I'd been planning to cancel it anyway, since I have no plans to use it and there's no reason to keep it if they're going to charge me a fee to do so.
Anyway, this is the second time in the past year or two that this has happened, so it finally got me off my ass to go through our cards and cancel the old unused ones. You see, although this year we finally got ourselves out of debt, for many, many years we had $20,000+ in credit card debt and were constantly juggling it between cards to try and get lower interest rates. Which meant we signed up for a lot of new cards if they offered a cheaper rate for balance transfers. So the cards just sort of accumulated over the years.
Between the two of us, we called and cancelled about ten cards, leaving us with three cards each. Which I still think is overkill, but just in case we ever need them, they're there. We have two that we usually use and pay off immediately if we need to use a card for something, but I'll try to rotate them so that they all get used a bit and thus not hit with any fees if these guys decide to institute them as well.
It felt really good to get those cards sorted. I'd been meaning to do so for ages, because we really just do not need all of those cards sitting around. It also made me think about how happy I am to be debt free, really for the first time in my adult life. It's such a weight off my shoulders, especially considering less than two years ago I couldn't see a way out of it and thought I'd be crippled by that debt for the rest of my life. |

I would gladly sit through half an hour of "Stargate: Lifetime" every week if it meant five minutes of watching Rush be a magnificent bastard at the end. |

Average work day for the most part. Gave notice of leaving in January to move to Atlanta, so I could start getting every thing set with my leftover vacation/sick time, and 401k. This is really happening, yo...
Met up with ramalion in Paducah afterwards, since he's in town for a diving class tomorrow in Metropolis. Had dinner at Steak&Shake, and came back to Mayfield afterwards. They had Peppermint milkshakes. Being the Road Rovers fan that I am, I had to try it out. Man, Blitz was right. Those things ARE tasty. |

| Kim’s “Don’t Be Tardy For The Party” Live Surpasses Our Every Wish |
[Nov. 6th, 2009|08:47 pm] |

http://www.bestweekever.tv/2009-11-06/kims-dont-be-tardy-for-the-party-live-surpasses-our-every-wish/ http://www.bestweekever.tv/?p=46923 Last night, we got our last little nugget of joy charity from this season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, as part 2 of the Reunion aired on Bravo. The hour offered many a chuckle, mainly stemming from Dwight and his Angry Inches (penile implants… tre tre tre declasse).
But host/Bravo Exec Andy Cohen isn’t stupid. Because anyone with half a brain would realize what America really wants: Kim Zolciak sing her hit song “Don’t Be Tardy For The Party.” Spoiler alert: It’s the best f**king thing you will ever see and/or hear. When the aliens come for us, show them this. They will flee our planet within a handful of nanomoklars (interplanetary seconds).
We’re surprised her wig didn’t flee the scene. But kudos to Kim for having the balls to get up there and do it! You know she knows she ain’t good.

| Start The Bubblebath… It’s Saxophone Day |
[Nov. 6th, 2009|06:51 pm] |

http://www.bestweekever.tv/2009-11-06/start-the-bubblebath-its-saxaphone-day/ http://www.bestweekever.tv/?p=46912 Yes, there is an official holiday called Saxophone Day, in celebration of the classical instrument invented all the way back in 1840. (Hol’ up: Did they have slow jamz back then? Yes.) So, to celebrate this instrument that was the cause for many a lovemaking session back in the late 80s/early 90s, we bring your our two favorite not to mention most obvious saxophone related clips.
First up, a classic: Bill Clinton blowing the horn on The Arsenio Hall Show nearly 20 years ago. There’s a reason why LL Cool B, and it’s this. This is why he was elected President of both the United States and America’s Communal Vadg.
Bet you thought it was going to be Planet of Yakety Sax. Wrong.
Our second favorite saxophone related clip… ahead. Hint: It’s only 14 seconds long…
Saxomaphone. Saxomaphone.
Feel free to tell us about any children you’ve conceived while listening to this revered instrument in the comments. |
