Interesting tidbit before I forget. Barb and Kanan finally bought a TV. Should I say Kanan finally bought a TV; Barb's been nagging him for months and he finally made the plunge. Suffice to say, with the TV and DVD player combined, they spent the same as we paid for Morgan's new RS. For a TV and DVD player. Yeah, that's pretty fucking scary.
We're going to the laundromat; this'll be fun.
That is all.

Black Friday
Heh, yeah, I went shopping this morning (5AM) because I'm a moron. I was trying to score a Toshiba Satellite laptop for $200 at Circuit City, but to no avail.
Anyway, Circuit City was crazy fucking busy, and there was around 50 people in line for the $200 laptop. There were 15 guaranteed to each store, but I'm sure there wasn't more than 20 or so at the Canton store, so I gave up and proceeded to Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart wasn't busy at all, and there were tons of associates everywhere. I then ventured to K-Mart where again there wasn't a huge crowd and I didn't have to stand in line for any time at all. All-in-all it was pretty uneventful, except for when I had to crawl in through Blackie's* hatch because his door locks were frozen. Yeah, that was fun.
(*Blackie is now the 91 RS V6's nickname.)
I got Morgan this for Christmas, and of course he's using it now. I'm so nice.
Oh, Morgan bought a car. Now you see why I need to give the cars nicknames. My Firebird is Truckbird, the black RS is Blackie and the new RS is the "new" car. The red one is a 91 RS with a V8, 88K original miles and it's a Texas car so there's no rust. It has some ricey stripes, but we're taking those off as soon as it gets warmer. Oh, and the stupid B&M Megashifter is getting yanked out too.
I should go to bed since I only got 2 hours of sleep last night, and I need to have my bloodwork done today, and I also need to get my new glasses. I should do laundry too at some point.
That is all.

Lame Duck
This is going to be a lame post, but it's better than no post at all I guess.
I took a photo of my hand. Why? Because my nails are all long and pretty, but I just broke the side of the pointer-fingernail so I'm going to cut all of them. Nothing looks more ghetto than one busted fingernail with all of the others long. Yes, they are my real nails and with the prenatal vitamins, they'll probably grow even faster than usual.
We're going to look at that Z28 tomorrow, and I hope to have my lens prescription filled as well.
Our Christmas tree is very, very sad.

Gah
Woo, I broke into -7.00 on my eye prescription! -7.00 in one eye and -6.50 in the other. I so rule. I'm not sure if I'll get new frames or not; I have to check out the selection when I have my prescription filled.
I get to have all kinds of fun blood tests today. The ob/gyn is whoring me out to the lab. I'm being tested for every freaking STD I've ever heard of, including HIV and hepatitis B. I'm also being tested for about 20 other things, and they can test for cystic fibrosis too. Woo!
My prenatal vitamins contain stool softener. For some reason I'm not comforted by that knowledge; quite the contrary, actually.
Next ultrasound is December 13th at 6:15PM, and we should find out the sex!
Apparently I only need 4.5 hours of sleep a night? I was asleep by 11PM last night, and woke up at 3:30 this morning. This is after not sleeping at all Tuesday night (I tried, but couldn't sleep,) and running around like an idiot yesterday. If I could sleep 7 hours in a row, I'd not know how to handle myself.
I may buy a winter car, I'm not sure yet. It's an 87 VW Fox WAGON (2-door) with a manual tranny. The best part is, the car only has 88K miles! The fact that it's only $400 is good too. I'll have to drive it and contemplate the purchase prior to actually deciding one way or the other.
It's a whopping 24 degrees. Fucking snowed yesterday. Not enough to cover the ground, but enough that I saw it snowing, and I hate the snow.
I should try going to sleep or something.

You Know What I Hate?
Other than the usual things, I hate the new Nokia commercials. I especially hate the one with the redneck guy singing The Dukes of Hazzard theme. What's up with him not looking at the camera, but instead looking at the ceiling? Are the lyrics on the ceiling? It's his "theme song," he claims. Um, no. It's a theme song from a washed-up TV show about rednecks. So, if you'd like to be a washed-up redneck, by all means, please have that fucking ringtone on your shitty Nokia cellphone.
Gah.
Gah.

16 Weeks
I'm 16 weeks pregnant! Actually I was 16 weeks yesterday, but you get the point. Four more weeks and we find out the sex. Or the little shit will be lying on his/her stomach and not flash us.
In other news, I'm finally starting to feel somewhat human again. I'm still coughing and all stuffed up, but I'm not nearly as tired today as I have been the past couple weeks. Once I get rid of this crud I'll actually feel pretty good. Until I start having heartburn every night, or worse, hemorrhoids. Seriously, if I wind up with the 'roids someone needs to give me large doses of something to knock me out until they go away. I can't even begin to imagine what that's like, and that's one joy of life I can live without ever experiencing for myself.
On that note, that is all.

New Appliance
OK, so a TV probably isn't considered to be an appliance, but still, it's new and glorious.
Glorious technology
The TV we were using is 21 years old; my parents purchased it in 1984. It technically still works, so we didn't throw it away, but it's not any fun to watch. I think digital cable gave the poor TV a heart attack.
Our new TV is a 27" RCA. We were going to get the flat screen version, but they weren't in stock, so we went with the regular version instead. Woo us. A new microwave and TV all within a month of each other. Now we need a new couch.
Morgan ripped off a goldfish fin, which required extensive goldfish surgery for reattachment. Poor goldfish.
The new Depeche Mode CD is pretty good.
I should clean the living room.
My face is full of boogers. I don't like boogers.
I have an appointment with my opthamologist (eye doctor) a week from tomorrow, and the baby doctor (Dr. Jag) isn't in the office until Monday. This would be the one time she takes two weeks vacation. Grrrrrrrrr.
I chose my health insurance plan today; I'm such a grownup now. I wanted to have the baby at Mercy Medical in Canton, but none of my doctors accepted the plan that includes Mercy, so Aultman Hospital it is. Due date is April 27; I expect flowers.
That is all.

I'm still sick, but I do seem to be recovering from this crud. The antibiotics must be working because I'm coughing up a rainbow assortment of stuff.
I have training for my election day job at 2:30 this afternoon. It was supposed to be Thursday evening, but was changed at the last minute. That turned out to be a good thing, though, since I was sick anyway.
I suppose I should get in the shower.

The Hell Was That?
Yeah, I'm sick so I'm coughing up all kinds of interesting things. I went to the doctor yesterday and I guess I have bronchitis. I'm on an antibiotic and Robitussin for the cough. It's been in the 60's here the last couple days, and I've been too sick to enjoy the weather. Ack.
I was debating whether I should post this or not, but since my Mom's told everyone she knows, I suppose I will. I'll be 4 months pregnant on Tuesday. Yeah, you read that correctly. Me, pregnant. Of course it's Morgan's!!!! I'll find out next month if it's a boy or a girl. I had my first ultrasound on Wednesday, and I saw two hands with 5 fingers each, and two legs kicking the shit out of my mommy area. That's going to hurt like hell in a month or so. Something to look forward to, I guess. LOL The heartbeat on Wednesday was 146, and it was 156 yesterday, but the nurse told me both are fine, and I don't need to worry.
I've managed to trip over the air and fall coming out of the apartment building (last night.) I fucking rule.
I'm also craving Sprite and Popscicles. Mmmmmmmmm.
Our TV is dying the slow death of antique electronics items.
I think that's enough news for one day.
That is all.

STICKY ENTRY-NEW EMAIL (LAST TIME, I SWEAR)
As the title states, I have another email change. This will be the last one, I swear. We switched to RoadRunner today and plan on keeping it for a long time ($130/mo for phone, net and cable with HBO and Showtime.) The email is ThePooper@neo.rr.com. Tell your friends.

Take Up Some Space
I could have edited my previous post to add this little tidbit, but stupidity such as this deserves its own post.
I just tried to change the TV with the phone. More than once.
Must go to bed.

A Meme!
I saw this over at Mikey's, so I figured I would actually post a meme on my blog. Be afraid...
#1 Name someone with the same birthday as you.
Bruce Springsteen, September 23
#2 Where was your first kiss?
First no-tongue was in Kindergarten on the playground, and first tongue kiss was in the band room (HA!) on my 13th birthday.
#3 Have you ever seriously vandalized someone else's property?
Nope
#4 Have you ever hit someone of the opposite sex?
Yep
#5 Have you ever sang in front of a large number of people?
Just for High School choir, and never a solo.
#6 What's the first thing you notice about the preferred sex?
From afar, hair. Close-up, teeth.
#7 What really turns you on?
Rocker boys (long hair, tattoos, etc)
#8 What do you order at Starbucks?
Vanilla Bean Creme (I, too, hate coffee.)
#9 What is your biggest mistake?
Getting married instead of going to college directly out of high school.
#10 Have you ever hurt yourself on purpose?
Not so much.
#11 Say something totally random about yourself.
I had to use Morgan's deodorant today, so my pits are itchy.
#12 Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
I used to get the Shannen Doherty thing all the time when I was 13-16 or so. I didn't see it at all, but people called me "Brenda," and I hated it.
#13 Do you still watch kiddy movies or tv shows?
Hmmm, do Halloween and Christmas specials count?
#14 Did you have braces?
I did, from age 9 to age 13 and I need to get them again. Damned wisdom teeth, and not wearing my retainers.
#15 Are you comfortable with your height?
Yep, being 5'3" is fine with me.
#16 What is the most romantic thing someone of the opposite sex has done for you?
Still waiting...
#17 When do you know it's love?
When I can poop in front of him, with the door open, and not care. (Seriously, it's all about the poop.)
#18 Do you speak any other languages?
Never had to take a foreign language, but I picked up a small amount of Russian from a guy I dated a long time ago.
#19 Have you ever been to a tanning salon?
Sigh, yes when I was in high school.
#20 What magazines do you read?
Lucky, Glamour, Cosmo, Auto Week, Jane
#21 Have you ever ridden in a limo?
No
#22 Has anyone you were really close to passed away?
My Dad, my first husband, my kitty-cat.
#23 Do you watch mtv?
Not since 1990 or so.
#24 What's something that really annoys you?
Honestly, most of the people I run into on a daily basis. Sad, but very true.
#25 What's something you really like?
Driving around for no reason.
#26 Do you like Michael Jackson?
Not so much.
#27 Can you dance?
Again, not so much.
#28 What's the latest you have ever stayed up?
The longest I ever stayed up in a row was for a class trip to Boston, MA in 1995. I stayed up 30-some hours. Yeah, fueled by youth, Dr. Pepper and Twix.
#29 Have you ever been rushed by an ambulance into the emergency room?
Negative.
#30 Do you actually read these when other people fill them out?
While filling this one out.
K, that one wasn't too informative, but took up some time nonetheless.
That is all.

Presents!!
Whee, Morgan got me a present for Sweetest Day! He got me this shirt from Hot Topic. Quite impressed I was, apparently he does pay attention to what I enjoy.
We stayed at Barb and Kanan's again this weekend, where we had a Pre-Halloween turkey dinner. Quite yummy, but then Barb is a good cook so that goes without saying. She's going to the Dominican Republic on Friday for her friend's wedding, so Morgan and I have to go up there this coming weekend so I can make sure Kanan eats decent meals at least 3 of the 7 days she'll be out of town. The following weekend, once she gets back from her trip, we're going to haunted houses. We didn't want to go the weekend of Halloween because it'll be hella busy, but we have no other choice. Blah.
So far my college GPA is a 3.7. I rule.
Speaking of school, I should complete our homework and study for the test tonight.

Finally had a Birdy oil change on Wednesday. I've put 10K miles on him since March, so I guess it was time.
We finished our first 4 credits at school; now we're taking Intro to Sociology. What a joke that class is.
Have to get ready for school.

Poop, Blah
Went to Barb and Kanan's house the 17th; Morgan and Kanan didn't sell shit at the flea market. They're trying again this weekend, which means I'll be in Cleveland again all weekend. Woo me.
Sick. Tired. Generally lethargic. That's me.
I'm recording an episode of Without A Trace, and LaPaglia is wearing glasses. Oh yummy.
Yep, this is all you're getting.

Morgan got a job and starts tomorrow. Detailing at a big dealership, which he enjoys. 40 hours a week, Monday-Friday.
School can eat a dick.
I'm so tired all the time, and I feel like crap. Lovely isn't it?

Disjointed Thoughts
This is going to jump around a lot and be one large paragraph. You've been forewarned...
Enough with the Hurricane Katrina bullshit. Yes, there was a hurricane. Yes, people died and tons of people are without shelter, food, water, employment or money. Shit happens. There, I've said what thousands of other people have been too "PC" to say. Stop your fucking whining, pick yourself up and go on with your life because you are still alive. What pisses me off the most are people have to take up collections because most of those dumb fucks stuck in New Orleans are there because they "could ride it out." They knew how long in advance that a potentially devastating hurricane was on its way? Yet they chose to stay put and "ride it out." This is what you get. And don't email me with the excuse of the people were too poor to move or get out of town. They didn't have friends who could help them get out of town? Why didn't they go to the Superdome with the tens of thousands of other people? Because they were stupid, that's why. And now it's up to the rest of the country to help these morons? Count me out. I only feel sorry for the people who were honestly trapped there; the sick, the old, people who had no one to care for them and all of the animals. If you're stuck there because you were too stupid to get out while you could, then you are reaping what you sow, just like those dumb fucks who were wiped off the face of the earth by the Tsunami because they didn't believe it was coming.
Why is everything a cause? Have to make dumbass ribbons and badges and bumper stickers and website icons. Must make them now before a month passes and we can't capitalize on it (whatever "it" may be) anymore. The millions of people buying that shit ensure the next "event" will also garner stupid ribbons, badges, stickers and icons. I hate what humans have become, and am ashamed to be a human. Not an American, mind you, because this is the best country ever, but a human. I'm only 25 and I've seen a huge change in society from 10 years ago. I see a huge change from 5 years ago. People are stupid. They're only worried about what everyone else thinks they should have, do, say, be. Fuck that. Until society is supporting me down to the deodorant that keeps my pits from funkiness, society can kiss my ass. I'm a good person. I don't steal. I don't do drugs. I don't drink and drive. I don't smoke. I would work if someone would give me a job. I'm not on welfare. I'm going to school to better myself. I don't beat old people or little kids. I'm nice to animals. I attempt to be kind to my fellow man, unless they're so dumb that I can't handle being around them. All of that isn't enough if I don't have the Katrina ribbon plastered on my car, along with the myriad of other stupid ribbons? Excuse me, but fuck you.
On a lighter note, we had orientation yesterday. What a waste of 2.5 hours that was. We received the book for our first class, listened to some people yammer on about how happy they were to have us there and took a 3-part placement test. I bombed the math portion just as I thought I would, but I did well on the reading and English portions. I'm testing out of Comp 1 and 2, and Intros to Psych and Sociology, which means I will graduate 4 months early. Woo!
One more month (1st-2nd week of October) until our school money is available and we won't have to worry about bills anymore. A job would be nice, but obviously that's not going to happen for either of us, so I'll stop yammering on about employment. Wait, maybe I should have some ribbons made up, and have people take up collections on their blogs?????
Is "just" the new "like?" People throw "just" in sentences where it doesn't belong and I want to shake people for doing so. A little tip, YOU SOUND LIKE AN IDIOT. STOP WITH THE "JUST."
You'd think an author would verify the spelling of a city prior to publishing the book. Where was his editor? I'm reading House of Secrets about Eddie Sexton and his clan. The city of Massillon is mentioned quite a bit, but the author spells the city with one "L" instead of two. Hello, assfuck, it's called a map. Look it up. The book is actually pretty good, and we live about 7 minutes from that house (we're on the border of North Canton and Jackson.) Still, check the spelling before you publish. Dickface.
I'm finished bitching for now, but I'll probably be back later for more.
That is all.
Enough with the Hurricane Katrina bullshit. Yes, there was a hurricane. Yes, people died and tons of people are without shelter, food, water, employment or money. Shit happens. There, I've said what thousands of other people have been too "PC" to say. Stop your fucking whining, pick yourself up and go on with your life because you are still alive. What pisses me off the most are people have to take up collections because most of those dumb fucks stuck in New Orleans are there because they "could ride it out." They knew how long in advance that a potentially devastating hurricane was on its way? Yet they chose to stay put and "ride it out." This is what you get. And don't email me with the excuse of the people were too poor to move or get out of town. They didn't have friends who could help them get out of town? Why didn't they go to the Superdome with the tens of thousands of other people? Because they were stupid, that's why. And now it's up to the rest of the country to help these morons? Count me out. I only feel sorry for the people who were honestly trapped there; the sick, the old, people who had no one to care for them and all of the animals. If you're stuck there because you were too stupid to get out while you could, then you are reaping what you sow, just like those dumb fucks who were wiped off the face of the earth by the Tsunami because they didn't believe it was coming.
Why is everything a cause? Have to make dumbass ribbons and badges and bumper stickers and website icons. Must make them now before a month passes and we can't capitalize on it (whatever "it" may be) anymore. The millions of people buying that shit ensure the next "event" will also garner stupid ribbons, badges, stickers and icons. I hate what humans have become, and am ashamed to be a human. Not an American, mind you, because this is the best country ever, but a human. I'm only 25 and I've seen a huge change in society from 10 years ago. I see a huge change from 5 years ago. People are stupid. They're only worried about what everyone else thinks they should have, do, say, be. Fuck that. Until society is supporting me down to the deodorant that keeps my pits from funkiness, society can kiss my ass. I'm a good person. I don't steal. I don't do drugs. I don't drink and drive. I don't smoke. I would work if someone would give me a job. I'm not on welfare. I'm going to school to better myself. I don't beat old people or little kids. I'm nice to animals. I attempt to be kind to my fellow man, unless they're so dumb that I can't handle being around them. All of that isn't enough if I don't have the Katrina ribbon plastered on my car, along with the myriad of other stupid ribbons? Excuse me, but fuck you.
On a lighter note, we had orientation yesterday. What a waste of 2.5 hours that was. We received the book for our first class, listened to some people yammer on about how happy they were to have us there and took a 3-part placement test. I bombed the math portion just as I thought I would, but I did well on the reading and English portions. I'm testing out of Comp 1 and 2, and Intros to Psych and Sociology, which means I will graduate 4 months early. Woo!
One more month (1st-2nd week of October) until our school money is available and we won't have to worry about bills anymore. A job would be nice, but obviously that's not going to happen for either of us, so I'll stop yammering on about employment. Wait, maybe I should have some ribbons made up, and have people take up collections on their blogs?????

DVR, How I Love Thee
DVR'ing NYPD Blue Smits episodes is such a nice thing.
Photos from when Morgan and I went out with Turtle Saturday night.
Me After 4 Smirnoff Twisteds

Turtle
Turtle offered to take our broke asses out, if one of us would be his designated driver. Can't turn that offer down!! Smirnoff Ice Twisted Watermelon is the best, followed closely by Mandarin Orange.
I had an interview yesterday morning, but obviously that went nowhere. So driving all over the fucking country filling out applications has netted us absolutely nothing; at $2.69 a gallon for gas. Lovely.
We're having our own little hurricane.
People are stupid.
That is all.
