Caturday in the Fark

Hanging around Fark too long, I just have to vent about some of its users and how they treat Caturday.

If you don't like cats or cat threads, don't open them and don't comment on them. It's very simple. It takes more effort to actually remark on how you hate cat threads than it does to ignore a cat thread.

Personally, I enjoy Caturday threads. I like to see how people can take a cat photo and caption it to make it funny. You can have one picture and have many different captions for it. What people come up with are just too funny. I have I Can Has Cheezburger.com on my Google feed reader. They are fun. Life's too serious and these lolcats and Caturday threads gives me a good laugh that I need. Caturday threads have become a things between me and my dad. I show him the cats; he laughs. I know my mother would also have enjoyed Caturday threads.

In other news, I have signed up with this blog traffic exchange program called Blog Mad. I'm going to see how it goes.

Happy Thanksgiving!

May you have a yummy meal!

The Thursday Threesome: Over the Years…

Thursday Threesome:

Onesome: Over-- and under. Above and below. Up and down. How's about at least a pair (three would be ideal <g>) of matching phrases?

1. Salt and pepper.
2. Coke or Pepsi.
3. Soft or hard?

Twosome: the-- next day? Black Friday! Are you going shopping? Decorating? Working? Hiding in the closet? Staying at home. I'm not risking my life to be around retards in this town.

Threesome: Years-- of research have proven that more years of research are needed! What would you like to see researched? ...and don't go high; this is 'just us folks' here; I'm thinking: whether there's enough cheese in mac and cheese! Why I can't seem to attract a decent man, but can attract all sorts or crazies.

GROSS!

Late this afternoon, early this evening, I was at the airport. Why was I at the airport? Because I'm too nice of a girl and took Joey to the airport. He's off this weekend to visit his family. It made more sense time wise and financially to fly to Atlanta than to get a ride up there. So, he needed a ride and guess who has a car. We left his place at 4:30 this evening and got him there in time to drink before going through the TSA checkpoint. At the bar, he ordered a double Crown Royal and Ginger with a lime. I had a water. He knows I don't drink, and he understands why I don't drink. However, he told me to try it. So, I did. I can finally say I tried an alcoholic drink. I don't see the appeal. The tiny sip I had was nasty. My reaction was something to watch. I think he wanted to see the reaction. He likes to tease me at times.

Actually, it probably did me some good taking him to the airport. Out of the blue during our travel, he asked me how exactly my mother died. I don't know what prompted this, since we were talking about sunglasses, air travel, and Journey at the time. I ended up explaining that fateful day to him. He's been getting on me to just sit down with her urn and talk. And I've been telling him it's hard for me to verbalize some things. There are some things I prefer to not state. I think it's from fear.

The only other thing I had today was Meterology class. We finally got some extra credit for showing up to class. And now, I'm about to eat dinner while we wait for Beth to get home and have some cake. I can't believe she's 20. And I do remember the day she was born.

I've Got Birthday Plans.

I'm going to a Christmas party on the 7^th. That's my birthday. I told my family we'll celebrate my birthday after my graduation ceremony. So, when I walked into Wesley Foundation today and saw there was going to be a party on the 7^th, I joked about how honored I was to be give a birthday party. Melissa made a note of it. One of the guys I can't stand said it was his birthday as well, and he's going to be there. I have tried to like this guy, but I just can't. Well, I won't let it affect me too much. We're going to have a small gift exchange that night as well. It may not be a romantic dinner, but it's not staying at home, alone, either. Yes, I said romantic dinner. I have never had a romantic dinner on my birthday. I would love to have one. Well, wish in one hand and…. I know I'm not getting one this year, but I still dream. You never know what can happen between today and my birthday. Well, it's going to have to wait for next year.

Today's Wesley lunch was about Thanksgiving. The passage was Psalm 100. After Melissa read the passage, she asked us to remark about things we're thankful for. Patrick and his friends remarked that they were thankful that none of them loss a tooth the last time they all went on a paint ball adventure. Patrick started laughing and just couldn't stop. The way he kept going on and on got us all onto this big laughing fit. A few of us remarked we were thankful that we could even have that laughing fit. I am going to miss them all when I'm gone.

My digital photography assignment due today stressed me out. I kept printing and printing pictures and none would come out. Finally, I uploaded them the Worldwide Camera and had them print them. I'm glad I did. They got the color to look nice. Lindsey's hair was not flaming red. We got the grades back on some prior assignments. I got zinged 5 points for my environmental portraiture assignment because I didn't show enough background. I told him why I couldn't have more background in the photo. I'm just thankful he finally gave some feedback on a photo. I worked on one of the next assignments in class. It's a colorization project. I also have a motivational poster to design.

I only have one class tomorrow. The E-Commerce project was extended a week this morning. I am thankful for that. Class was also canceled for tomorrow. That gets a lot of stress off of me. I was going to have to finish the E-Commerce project when I wasn't busy taking Joey to the airport and getting home to celebrate Beth's 20^th birthday. Since that's been postponed, it's something I can take the time to work on in the break. I don't have to rush from the airport. I fear the traffic. And I can have fun celebrating my sister's birthday. It won't be much, but it will be something.

"After All…Tomorrow is Another Day."

I finally finished Gone with the Wind this morning. I cried at some parts. I laughed at others. And I didn't realize how much I would identify with this book. I didn't want it to end. I think I read it at a point in my life I needed it the most.

I plan on watching the movie over the holiday break. Joey's going to let me borrow his copy to watch.
