I just tried to upload a large entry and I received an error saying my primary something was full. Huh?
Happy New Years' Eve (or something)

Here's a link to an article about my sister and nephew. You have to scroll to the bottom of the page, and click on the link for the "9 year old gets kidney" article. Julie donated a kidney to Matt the day after Christmas. They are both doing well, and Julie may go home tomorrow. If that does happen, I'm driving my Mom to Pittsburgh to pick Julie up, then my Mom's staying with her until Thursday or Friday. For Julie not wanting us around originally she's sure calling us enough now. Maybe this will straighten her up, but I doubt it. If my Dad dying didn't change her ways, nothing will. I'll be happy just to see Matt.
Off to the Scheib to package stuff.
Byeeeeeeeee!

Sunday December 29, 2002
Ugh, I gotta do returns today. Both of my sapphire bracelets broke; the clasps snapped right off. I had a feeling that was going to happen, so I saved my receipts. I also have to return that shitty digi cam I bough three weeks ago at Office Max. It only works half of the time, and if they give me lip about being over the 14 day return limit I'll just say it was a gift. So I gotta hit Office Max, Dillard's and Kaufmann's. Won't that be fun?
I added a new feature to my blog; the shoe for the day picture. That's the picture of the shoes I'm wearing today. If it's the same picture as they day before I'm either not going anywhere or I'm wearing the same pair of shoes two days in a row (it does happen once in a while). As you can see, I have way too much time on my hands.
OK, gotta make myself pretty. Byeeeee!

Saturday December 28, 2002
Why are those kids up at 11PM screaming their heads off? Oh, because their parents are crackheads...
I purchased the HP PhotoSmart 320 digi cam last night. It's really nice, but my piece of shit PC won't upload the pictures. I can print directly from my HP printer, so I know the camera isn't broken. I need to call the HP support folks and see if I'm missing a driver or something. I hope I can rig my computer to work with the cam because it's a really nice camera and I'd like to keep it.
My car's thermostat was sticking, and Montrose actually fixed it for free with no bitching on my part. I almost fell over. Hopefully it decides to be a nice car for at least a month or so. : )
It snowed again. Argh!
I cleaned Fluffy's room today, and rustled around the apartment. Nothing too exciting to report today.
Byeeeeee!

Friday December 27, 2002
Yeah, I know. Four days without an update, but you'll soon see why there wasn't!
OK, Tuesday I wake my lazy self up at around 10:30AM. Wrap some last minute stuff, get ready and hit the road to Cuyahoga Falls by 2PM. Make crazy assed time to the Falls, 45 miles in 25 minutes, and get to Uncle Jimmy's shindig before four. This is after I realize I forgot the waffle maker at home, and have to run to Wal-Mart for a gift card to use as the exchange gift. I also picked up a Pur water filter set thing for Kieth and Tricia (which they loved). Eat at Uncle Jimmy's, score a Dirt Devil baby vacuum and a cocoa and cookie set thingie, then race back home around 7PM. Leave my house to go back to the Falls at 10PM and it's icing outside. Wake up Christmas morning in the Falls and there's about 7 inches of snow (love the snowbelt). Uck. I walked over to my car and sunk into snow up to my knees. I hate Ohio. I was stuck in the Falls from Christmas Eve to the day after Christmas. Yesterday I went to Kaufmann's to spend my gift card (DKNY zippy sweatshirt), West Point Market to spend my gift card (Burt's Bees marshmallow and melon moisturizer) and Borders to spend that gift card as well (serial killer book and some marble magnets). I also hit Barnes and Noble for next years' Christmas cards. Around 6PM I decide to go home. I get about a half a mile onto Route 8 and my car temp gauge is all the way up. I pulled off at the Howe AVE exit and into the Sheetz lot. I had to have my car towed to Montrose in Louisville last night due to the overheating trick it decided to pull in 20 degree weather. I'm hoping the shit Montrose pulled in May caused the head to crack. That would rock! It has a warranty so I don't even want to hear it from them. I'll let the piece of shit sit over there before I pay them another dime for any work done to the engine.
Yesterday was also new kidney day for Matthew! He and my sister (the donor) are doing much better than expected. I would have gladly given him a kidney, but Julie was a perfect match. I guess as soon as they had the new kidney properly "hooked up" he started peeing everywhere. Teehee!
I have sandals at home, but no damn ZIP Drive. That seller sucks ass!
I'm going tonight to purchase a new digi cam so be prepared for lots of pictures!
Detroit Auto Show January 11-20. Be there or be square!
Later! Byeeeeeeeeeee!

Monday December 23, 2002~IT'S ANIME DAY!!!
Ugh, I just returned from K-Mart. I hate that store to begin with, but with it being Christmas Eve Eve it was even worse. People have no manners at all anymore. What exactly does "Excuse me" mean to you? Obviously it's a foreign phrase to a lot of people. I forgot a gift exchange gift, so I got to visit K-Mart. I scored a waffle maker, and it's a nice one too! My first trip in my Anime Docs is to K-Mart, such blasphemy.
Fluffy much enjoys my DM boxes because he's silly.
I think that's all. Byeeeeee!

Sunday December 22, 2002
Woohoo, I went to Mr. Hyde's this afternoon. I purchased a pair of 14 eye dual zipper boots in Cosmic. I'll have a picture of them on my site tomorrow as my digi cam is dead so I have to use the one at work. That same bitch was working at Mr. Hyde's, and I really can't stand her. Grrrrrrr.
Fluffy is enjoying his blankie in the bathroom. Such a silly kitty.
Tomorrow is my last day of work until Friday! I'm sure I'll wind up caving in and going to work on Thursday, or maybe I'll just answer email from home. I do know I absolutely must package that crap and ship it out tomorrow. I have about 10 items to package, and we have a bunch more coming off tomorrow. Love my job.
I think I'll clean the bathroom, then tidy up my room. I also have to clean and protect my new boots!
Byeeeeeee!
Late Saturday Evening December 21, 2002
We finally put our tree up tonight, and I think we did a very good job. Too bad you can't tell from my crappy photo. I really need a new digi cam.
I have to return my Tiffany ring due to its discoloration. I guess I can't handle the copper content in the ring, or at least that's what the Tiffany representative told me. Grrrrrrrr, the ring's really cute and I so much don't want to return it.
I didn't hit Mr. Hyde's today, I'm saving that little foray for tomorrow.
Henry Rollins is doing a spoken word tour, and he's going to be at the Cleveland Odeon on January 26. You know I already have my ticket, duh!
Didn't do much today, but I did have piping hot pizza and put the tree up. I think that's quite a productive Saturday.
I'm off to try and sleep. Nighty!

Friday December 20, 2002
Quick update before I go home. Don't know about the apartment yet, and my Tiffany ring is changing color. What the fuck is going on?
On a better note, the guys (Gary, Bob and Tom) got me a $50 gift certificate to Mr. Hyde's Leather! Woohoo, a new pair of Docs are in my very near future!
More later, gotta go!
Byeeeeeeeeeee!

Wednesday December 19, 2002
I finally broke down and did some laundry. Four loads, which was all of my jeans, and some shirts. I forgot to wash any towels so I guess I have to steal some of my Mom's.
We looked at the apartment today, and put down a deposit. We'll find out tomorrow for sure if we get it.
I received my Flamer Shoes today, and my California Car Cover order. I think I'm going to order the thinner Tiffany ring that matches my thick Tiffany ring. The thinner one is only $74! I'm going to Kaufmann's later this evening to buy a sapphire and diamond bracelet that's really pretty, and quite cheap too. It's not as inexpensive as the last one I got there, but I think this new one is prettier. I'll check out the Coach counter while I'm there, and the Docs too!
I actually didn't go into work today, I'm so proud of myself.
Gotta go, Fluffy's attacking my laundry bags. Bad kitty!
Byeeeeee!
Thursday December 19, 2002
This is what I get for taking a nap this evening after work. It is 20 after 3 in the AM and I can't sleep. I know this always happens when I take a nap after work, but I'm soooo tired when I get home that I can't help myself. Dammit!
My two packages were my Juicy Tube and my Tiffany & Company ring! It arrived a day early, which is quite cool. My flamer TredAirs didn't arrive as promised. I don't think the girl even sent them yet, as the Delivery Confirmation number she gave me comes up as being invalid. Don't lie to me about shipping an item; ship it when you're supposed to! I emailed her, but she hasn't replied.
If I have one more person email me for work requesting their total due, I'm going to punch someone. I sent an email and an eBay invoice at the end of each auction today. Both emails had the total due, including shipping. I received 5 emails today from people requesting their totals. Two were legitimate though, as I needed one persons' shipping info to calculate shipping charges, and the other person wants to combine shipping to Canada. The other three people need to pay more attention to their email. I'm sure I'll have a ton more emails like that when I check the mail again. Are people getting more and more stupid, or is it just me expecting too much from people?
On to happier subjects...I go look at the apartment tomorrow/today at 11:15AM. If I like it, which I'm sure I will, we're going to take it. I plan on beginning packing this weekend. I need to find some way to store my shoes in the least amount of space. I don't think this new apartment has a bedroom as big as my current room, but if that's the only thing I can find wrong with it, I'll be blissfully happy! I do know the thought of a gas stove is spooky; I can see myself blowing up the kitchen. I'm used to electric cooking, and I don't like change when it comes to major appliances! Oh well, I'm sure I'll get used to it.
I have such a horrible memory that I had to walk around work today with a note taped to my sweater sleeve. I kept forgetting what I needed to do, so I finally made a list and taped it to myself. Strange looking, but it works. And since when did I care about strange looking?
Please, before emailing me, run a spell check! Good lord.
I think I'm finished bitching for this evening. Just in case anyone is wondering, the picture on my blog is my LeBaron's rusted through exhaust pipe. Tell me again why Chryslers are still allowed on the road?
Nighty (I hope) Byeeeeeee!

Tuesday December 17, 2002
Woohoo, I finally finished my Christmas shopping today. Hopefully everything arrives in time for Christmas.
I won a pair of the Anime Docs I've been blabbing about! $70! I love the Internet!
I had to go into work today, so I didn't get to the doctor. Lovely.
I'm going to bed.
Nighty, byeeeeeee!
Early Tuesday Morning December 17, 2002
Gary gave me attitude all afternoon; I wonder if he managed to "stumble upon" my journal again? I could give a rats' ass to be honest. Yes, I love my job, but I don't get paid enough to put up with bullshit. I do my job well, and all of our bidders are kept happy. I also do a lot more than just eBay stuff, so I don't even want to hear it.
Per usual, I was asshole tired all day long, and now I'm wide awake. My 4 hour nap probably didn't help much, but I was soooooo worn out from doing nothing. Uck, I hope I find out what's wrong with me tomorrow. I'm sure the fact that this apartment is never kept at a constant temperature doesn't help; nor does the fact that I don't listen to my doctor about not going into work when I'm sick.
I now have to buy Jeff's birthday and Christmas presents and that is it! I just bought Tom and Denny's presents this evening via the Net. How I love Internet shopping. I received my Recaro seat cell phone holder today; it's soooooo cute! The instructions are in Japanese though, so I had to make do with the pictures. Hopefully I'm smart enough to figure out the cell phone holder. I'll take a picture of it in my car once I get it mounted. (Yeah, I just said "mounted". Teehee)
I still haven't mailed my Christmas cards; I suck. I really need to get those mailed like tomorrow. I'm such a procrastinator.
I'm off to watch some TV, or maybe I'll watch a movie. Halloween 5 or Dirty Harry sound good, as does Cruel Intentions.
Nighty!

Yeah, I'm still at work although I said I was leaving at 2. I don't want to listen to Gary bitching about me leaving early. Excuse me, but who worked on Sunday? Who comes in sick all the time? I think it's me. I have another appointment with the Doctor tomorrow; I hope I have mono. That would be hella funny.
I'm off to help Norm with the raffle tickets. Later.

Sunday December 16, 2002
Yeah, I'm at work on a Sunday. Nice, huh? I am now managing two eBay accounts, and only getting paid to manage one. I think I'm going to have to have a little chat with Bob tomorrow.
I'm so not doing laundry today. I'm sure I can rummage around and find a clean pair of jeans for work tomorrow. I have plenty of shirts for work, therefore I think I need to buy about 5 more pairs of jeans.
OK, I'm going home as I've been here since 2 this afternoon. Ugh.

Saturday December 14, 2002
I didn't go into work today, nor did I go anywhere today. Well I did go have my hair cut, but that's it. I feel horrid and I took two naps today. Now I'm going to install AOL Broadband on our computer. Hopefully the computer can handle it!
Fluffy's grounded as he was on the kitchen counter when I got up. Bad kitty! He's in his room squeaking at me, cute but not going to work!
Nothing to report.
Byeeeeeee.

Thursday December 12, 2002
I finally made it to the doctor today. I got 6 freakin' prescriptions, and had to wait around for 35 minutes at the Medicine Shoppe this evening. They have our insurance info soooooo screwed up. I pitched a fit and felt better. I'm such an ass.
I absolutely have to do laundry this weekend. And I must clean Fluffy's room today. Damn cat.
I ordered my Tiffany & Company ring today! I can't wait to receive it. It's from the 1837 collection, and it's so pretty. Woohoo me!
I think I'll go sack out on the couch and enjoy the rest of my evening off. I'll finish my purple glitter Docs too.
Byeeeeee!

OK, I finally got around to taking pictures of stuff. Here's the Pink Patent W/Cherries Joe Boxer watch. Isn't it cute? Here's the inside of the pink patent watch. Cute too, yes? The Rainbow Joe Boxer watch is my favorite as of now. The Black/White Joe Boxer watch is for blah days. Here's the flowered Nikes I was babbling about. Aren't they cute?
OK, now that you're all linked out I think that's all I have to say!
Byeeeeeee!
Wednesday December 11, 2002
I guess it's just raining now, so off to Belden Village I will be! I hope I received my Metal Sludge grab bag today as I can't wait to see what's in it.
I put a new picture of the LeBaron on my webpage; it's covered in today's snow. I hate snow!
I'll get ya with more antics later tonight.

Argh, I have had three calls in the last 15 minutes that are some stupid recording. On my cell phone nonetheless. How are telemarketers getting my cell phone number? Once again, argh!
I'm still sick but since I'm high on Ultram I feel much better. I have a doctor appointment for tomorrow at 2:30PM. I'm sure I'll get jabbed, but that'll be a reason to buy something!
It's snowing hella hard right now, so I'm not sure if I'm going to get to Belden Village this evening for the flowered Nike's. I'll be pissed if I drive up there and they're gone. Grrrrrrrrr!
Well I'm going to run across the street before it gets any worse outside. I'll jabber on some more when I get back.
Byeeeeeeeee!
