With the impending doom of January coming up, I'm preparing by trying to make some extra cash now. Between presents, and rent, this month has been tough. In January my hours will be cut down at work to next to nothing, and my debt is going to bite me in the face.
I was watching CNN about some boot store in the U.S. that is trying to bring back saying "Merry Christmas", instead of "Happy Holidays". They offer a whole 5% discount if you say Merry Christmas, as well as button reading "It's alright to say Merry Christmas". GET THIS: this woman has the nerve to say "Merry Christmas is what it's all about, it's about Christ,... Read More
Cross your fingers for Ms. Malice...further details to come shortly
It's coming down to the wire now for X-mas...I'm glad that I got all my shopping done on the internetz. I know, I don't do the X-mas thing, but it's nice to give presents. Giving gifts doesn't have to be X-mas related anyway. Happy Winter Solstice!
Speaking of shopping...it's almost that time of year again... Read More
Taken from the T-Shirt Hell newsletter opener (Nov 10, 2007):
Merry "Time of the year when it's still several weeks until Christmas but you should be buying gifts anyway because this is a consumer culture and your possessions define you" Day. If you don't celebrate Christmas, I have a couple of things to say to you. First, I hope that dreidel comforts you while you're... Read More
i miss the days when kids were happy with dolls and wagons and playing in the snow, making snowmen and tobogganing. i hope if i have children, to raise them to appreciate what's right out the front door and to protect what's left of it, to use their imginations, instead of begging for the next big consumer item. the world is a sad place these days. i don't know if my wishes will be realized, and if i don't think so, i'll avoid the whole children thing all together, because last thing i want is a whiny kid with a christmas list down to the floor. last things i want is to contribute to the madness.
I hate when people ask me what I want for Christmas as well. In my opinion, I just want something small that has meaning derived from my relationship with that person. Something that means something to both of us, something I will actually enjoy and cherish.
I work hard for my money, and I will use that money for items that I actually NEED and WANT. I would rather gifts be something thoughtful, something I wouldn't necessarily buy for myself. All in all, I would usually rather get nothing.
Having said that, I have been meaning to pick up a Wii as of late.
Thank you Wal-mart, for keeping me under the poverty line....you fucking cunts.
Anyone wanna give me a new job? My computer skillz are fucking fantastic (for a chick, of course... ), and my customer service skillz are exceptional when I actually give a fuck.
That being said, I was speaking with Lucy last night - and both of us very much miss seeing you around and spending time with you. The three of us should do something in the not too distant future.
First things first, If anyone is interested in a gorgeous Sally (Nightmare Before Christmas) costume, here's the SG Sales topic that I posted with all the info:
Sally costume
$60 for the whole thing, dress, leggings, and wig (U.S. or Canadian funds since the exchange rate is so close). It's still in perfect condition, I've taken extremely good care of it.
So the weekend was fun for the mostpart, minus the massive hang over on Sunday...but I can forget that for some of the better parts of the weekend. I'm retarded and didn't take any photos, or vids...I was distracted with other things.
I had a good long ponder on the bus ride home about my life as it stands. After spending a weekend away having... Read More

Hey, how was your weekend at the expo? I was visiting pure pwnage website just now and saw that they were also there. Did you get a chance to meet them?
Ok, so I finally went to see The Simpsons movie. It was quite enjoyable It just felt like one big episode of the series, but with better animation. I laughed, and that was enough for me.
So, lately, I do have better news than usual. I ordered in some MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) books, and I'll be studying to do my exams. I hope... Read More
