Out With The Old

Well now, this year certainly was eventful, wasn't it? The end of an old relationship (we're still good friends) and the beginning of a new one (my Morgan, of course.) New car, new pet and a new cell phone (silly thing to mention, but new nonetheless.) Why is time flying by now that I'm 25? What happened to summer hanging on for years instead of weeks? Where did the summer go?

Morgan and I are sticking close to my area tonight ($10 cover, per person, for the Metal Sludge thing tonight; um no.) We'll cruise Tusc and tease ricers, and hang out with the Turtle for New Year's. Maybe go to a bar, but I doubt it. Nothing too stressful, but fun nonetheless.

Ah yes, Lisa got a camera phone today. This phone to be exact. It's through Sprint PCS and seems to be pretty cool. Now if only my phone was actually activated so I could send images. I guess it can take up until 8PM (I got the phone at 2PM) for it to be turned on, due to the holiday backlog. The best part is Sprint is giving those phones away until January 15th to all new customers! How rockass is that? I got a camera phone for free! Wheeeeee! I've added my textamerica account link to the side bar. It's www.thelawnbunny.textamerica.com. Go have fun!

I must get ready as my Morgan will be here soon. I'll audblog and post photos during the night.

Everyone be safe and enjoy yourselves.

That is all.

More "I Want"

Someone has a bad case of the wants as of late. It'll come in handy when I win the lottery, I guess...

I bring you the best thing ever for Morgan and my useless driving. We'll never get lost again, unless we want to. LOL
Streets and Trips W/GPS Thing

That is all.

Tasty, Yummy

It's been so long...
Good thing too, as we get along well, but only for a couple hours. Then things get really, really ugly. LMAO

Followed closely with my other friend...
They go so well together.

Anyone have a guess as to what I plan on doing tomorrow night? Hmmmm?

It was 51 degrees today. Woohoo! Maybe 60 tomorrow. Rockass!

That is all.

Take In The Fumes

Got the intake for the Camaro:


That is all.

Bahahahaha

Mecha has a blog. Lord help us all.

That is all.

Let Me Hit You

I am in such a pissy mood...

Hopefully Morgan and I will be here for New Year's Eve. That would rock out. It's at The Jimmy's club, so that should be interesting by default. I'm sure things will be quite blog worthy, if we wind up going. I'll make sure to take my camera too.

Morgan managed to get the Camaro stuck Sunday night, in his parking lot nonetheless, then he managed to rip our air dam/scratch guard thingie off as well. But the kind guys at the $43.19 oil change place were nice enough to take it off for us so it would stop dragging the ground. Yeah, $43.19 oil change. To be fair, $3 of that was for coolant (none in the reservoir and the radiator was low too), but still, a $40 oil change? Nice, yes?

Snow and ice all fucking weekend. Remind me again why I'm still in Ohio?

Suppose I'll go to bed.

I love my Morgan.

That is all.

Dude

OK, apparently it sucks to live in certain areas surrounding my town. Some people have been without electric since Thursday. THURSDAY, people. Dude, how much would that suck?

Apparently snow is slippery?

It's December. It's Ohio. It's called winter, and it happens every year.

I drove home from Strongsville this morning...In the snow...In the Camaro. All was well, other than when some jackass pulled out in front of me less than 3 miles from my house. I had a police escort (State Highway patrolman) all the way on RT18. I was happy about it though, since 18 was fucking horrible and I figured it was good to have a cop behind me if I crashed. RT77 was fine, and RT71 was OK. Hopefully everything will be OK when I go back up there to get Morgan at 5 this afternoon.

OK, photos from yesterday:
Hope, Hayley, Hillary and Hope's boyfriend Matt. Those are my nieces.

My two brothers. Left is Kieth (42), the oldest, and right is Jeff (37), my "little" brother. Hannah is in the middle, that's Kieth's oldest daughter (19), and big sister to Hope, Hayley (17) and Hillary(12).

Morgan peeking at me.

I just realized I have no photos of Julie (Jeff's wife) or Tricia (Kieth's wife.) My sister Julie didn't come over for Christmas, but that's no surprise. She did call, though, which was mildly shocking.

OK, Wal-Mart just gets cooler and cooler. I'm a Target girl, but Wal-Mart does have some cool things going on. You can upload digital photos to the Wal-Mart photo website thing, and they'll have your photos ready to pick up in an hour. That is so rockass. The photos from yesterday are all ready to be picked up and I uploaded them at 2 this morning. The only thing better than this discovery would have been a photo printer of my own.

All right, I'm off to eat mashed taters and gravy. Maybe some oyster stuffing, too.

That is all.

Nifty Tree

OK, I'm finally getting around to posting a photo of the new and improved tree. Morgan did all of the lights, and my Mom and I decorated the tree. Isn't it purty?


And, just in case you're weird and like this kind of thing, here's a big photo of the tree.

That is all.

M'Kay

Anyone remember New York Undercover? I'm talking about the first couple seasons, like before 1998. I loved that show, and now I find it on SiTV. I am so dorked out. Woohoo!

So much shit to do tomorrow for Christmas dinner. I may start the pies now because I'm strange like that. I should probably make Morgan's birthday cake too, since his birthday was Tuesday. He told me not to worry about making the cake on his birthday since he doesn't like cake anyway. Silly boy.

OK, the washer stopped.

That is all.

Way Too Much Time

I bring you the SnowRoc Z.

We are very easily amused.

That is all.

Ice, I Poop On You

It snowed. And it iced. The Cleveland shoreway is closed for at least 3 hours so they can clear it of ice and snow, and the parking area of my townhouse thing is a sheet of ice. Morgan left at 1:30 to get to work by 4. The roads are supposed to be clear, so he should have no problems getting to work. I have to get my Mom's Christmas present tomorrow, yes Christmas Eve, so I hope it doesn't snow tonight or tomorrow. Morgan works tomorrow, but gets off no later than 2PM, more likely around noon. He must be here no later than 5PM so I have time to get the present. I hate Christmas.

I want to smack someone.

I need food.

That is all.

I Want

But then, when don't I want?


That is all.

Driving In The Snow

Videos of us driving in the snow:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4

That is all.

Happy Birthday...A Day Late

Well he was with me all day yesterday, which is why I didn't post. Check out his birthday present. I bring you the Iroc hood with louvers. The louvers were a big hit for his birthday; what a dork.

That is all.

Heehee!

It's a quarter to 5 in the morning and where are we? Doing donuts in the Wal-Mart parking lot.

That is all.

I Am Loved

NeverRunning280Z (5:06:03 PM): Walk outside, and fall down.

Glad to know I have such wonderful, caring friends. Ass.

That is all.

Another Thing

Fuck you snow and ice. The only good thing is the Camaro started right up when I went out to clean it off. That's after 2 days of sitting in subzero temperatures. The Camaro is slowly redeeming itself in my eyes. 45 minutes later my cheeks are rosy, my nose is running and my legs are numb. Hello winter, piss off.

I'm hungry. What's for lunch?

That is all.

Fuck You, Kidneys

I just got settled down with my Barq's root beer, cole slaw and Married With Children, and now I have to pee. Dammit. And my cell phone's ringing...

OK, that was the guy who's giving us the locking floor for the Camaro. Heehee, dude just took care of my Morgan's birthday present dilemma. More than I wanted to spend, but Morgan'll be sooooooo happy. Woohoo!

Now maybe I can finally watch Married With Children and eat my cole slaw.

That is all.

~Kicks Snow In Its Gonads~

Why did Gateway, in their infinite wisdom, place the cooling fan vents for my laptop (M305XL) on the bottom of the laptop? Just a question.

It snowed last night. Morgan called from work around 2PM and told me to not even attempt getting up there tonight. I guess you can't see 2 feet in front of your nose where he works/lives, and since I've never driven a RWD car in the snow, he doesn't think I should try mastering that skill today. Tuesday it's supposed to be 40 degrees, which is cool since he's off school for the holiday, and it's his 23rd birthday. He will be an old man.

We're picking up a locking floor for the hatch of the Camaro, for free! Some guy in Elyria has one he wants to get rid of, so that's cool. I'm not exactly sure what it is we're getting, but Morgan seems to know and he's all excited, so I guess I can be too.

I broke down and bought the Veet razorless shaver kit last night. OK, the last time I used anything like that was years ago, and I managed to burn my legs in 3 places. Dumb me, I never learn so I decided to try it again. Surprisingly it actually worked! And the smell wasn't nearly as bad as it used to be. My legs were red right after using the product, but now they're smooth and normal colored. I'm hooked, I can't help it. What sucks is I can't find just the depilatory cream that goes with the kit; I'm going to have to keep buying the whole thing with the razorless shaver too. Maybe the regular Veet depilatory cream will work? I'll have to try that once my can of stuff is all used up. So yeah, no more razors on this girl's legs.

I think that's about it. I must now wrap Ally's Christmas present (the little girl my brother and sister-in-law adopted) and ponder baking the cake for Morgan's birthday.

That is all.

Most People Are Sheep

Well now, that was interesting. I've just met the most hillbilly family ever. Now remember, I've lived in Texas and went to school in West Virginia, yet I find the most hillbilly family living in the same town as me. Albeit they are originally from Alabama, but still, in my town. Anyway, the highlight of the evening was when one of the guys comes up to me with a black box. He then hands it to me and, as I'm holding it, says shake hands with my brother. I look at him confused and he's like, "That's my brother." It was a box with his brother's ashes. Nice, yes? Combined with that, and the attack rooster, they win the hillbilly award. Wow.

I'm watching my new Cruel Intentions DVD. Woohoo!

So yeah, I went out tonight. Nothing major, just hung out with a friend, but it was nice to be out of the house on a Saturday night. I was home before 1AM, though, so that's kinda lame. LOL

Blah.

That is all.

Secret Santa

My secret santa, Kathryn from New Zealand, was nice enough to buy me the collector's edition DVD of Cruel Intentions. I received it Thursday, so if you're reading this, thank you! The girl I was supposed to buy for never replied to my emails so apparently she doesn't want any presents. Fine by me, though, since I don't really have the extra money to spend anyway. People are weird. Why sign up for a secret santa thing if you're not going to reply to the emails asking what you want for presents? She even has that on her wishlist; to email her and she'll give the person her address. Oh well, I'm not worrying about it.

My Morgan took me out to eat last night, such a sweet guy. He was going to get my Christmas presents too, but they were gone. Dammit. Just the thought was enough for me, even though I love opening presents. I love my Morgan.

One of my Christmas presents from my Mom arrived today. I bring you the coolest purse I've ever seen:



Yes, I'm taking that to the Detroit and Cleveland auto shows, and I can hardly wait for the summer car shows to begin!

All right, I need to find Morgan something for his birthday (it's the 21st) and I also need gas in the Camaro.

That is all.

Would You Like Some Illegally Copied Music?

Finally, I get around to ripping all of my CD's onto my laptop. I got tired of Morgan mouthing off about his MP3 collection (over 2,000 songs), so I decided to put all of my music onto my laptop. Now my laptop will probably die, knowing my luck.

Apparently I really like Depeche Mode, Queensryche, Faith No More and Type O Negative. Jeebus...

I should get in the shower since I have to leave at 4:30 to pick up the Morgan from work.

That is all.

I Drive In The Snow...A CAMARO

A very, very bad video of me driving in the snow. It's mostly really bad video of the dash of the Camaro, and a little bit of the town where I live. There's not really any snow on the road, but hey, it WAS snowing. I suck.

The video.

That is all.

Whee

I feel so bad. My Morgan had to walk home from work tonight. He told me to keep the car last night, and I told him I'd pick him up from work tonight. I guess it started snowing, so he didn't want me to take a chance on wrecking the car while driving up there to get him. I should have picked him up anyway since it's not snowing that hard. He still isn't online; I hope he's OK and not a popsicle, or worse. Poor Morgan. I'm such a bad pooper (don't ask.)

I didn't do anything else today. Woohoo.

That is all.

The Cold Keeps People In...Off The Streets

Whee, Morgan fixed the Camaro. He's so handy to have around, and takes such good care of me. Turns out when the guys at Bennington's replaced the cap and rotor, they wound up pinching the wires that run from the distributor back into the pickup (ignition) coil. That was causing the car to not start, and to stall out, in these cold-assed temperatures, and also explained why it would stall when taking a hard corner. I drove the Camaro home with a minimum amount of hassle as the cold truly does keep people in, off the streets.

Now lets see if I can get my job back tomorrow. I think I can, I think I can...

I have to pick Morgan up from work tomorrow night at 9PM, so lets hope the Camaro continues cooperating with us. We still need to buy a starter and an alternator, but at least we're mobile again. Actually the alternator is new, like less than 3 months old, but the lady we bought the car from needs to find the receipt for the alternator. If she can't, Morgan and I are stuck buying another one, and they're not cheap. Oh well, again, at least we're mobile.

Must go to bed if I plan on getting up at a decent time.

That is all.
