I hate this stupid fucking snow! It would be fine if it behaved, but nooo. Attempted to get out to the Edgewood house. Barrowed my dad's big truck this time and everything. Edgewood is a fucking mess, but I managed to almost get there without having to get over an large obsacles and then WHAM! 3 foot snow drift kicks my ass. Didn't see it, it was just there and there was no, ok, kinda stuck, attempt to get out and then realize I just made it worse. Nope, it was instantaniously stuck. Totally didn't have the clothes for it, and when walking into the wind it felt as if someone was taking a sand blaster to your face. Good thing that dad left some of his stuff in the truck otherwise it would have been instant frost bite.
So, I walked to one of the neighbors house and totally suprised him, but he's always been cool and even let me hang out there until my uncle showed up. Though it took forever and he came out to help see if I could get unstuck by myself. But no such luck. So my uncle shows up with his big truck and chains and a tow chain....And it didn't even fucking move an inch. So then we decide to just leave the stupid thing there and just hope that a plow didn't come along and hit it. And AGAIN get stuck in his truck. Frickin' A. It would be one thing if I and pushed my way in there, but I didn't! It wasn't that bad until I hit the snow drift....
Anyway, gotta call county tomorrow and make sure they don't pulverize the truck....damnit all. So pissed that I can't finish this blog....

Wow, I haven't posted a blog in a long ass while.
Anyhoo, sitting here waiting for a ride to the airport, with not enough time to take a nap. DAMN! Gonna be at the airport way early! Already wanna puke. And how much do you wanna bet the plane it gonna be delayed due to said plane freezing to the air strip. Stupid planes. Stupid weather foiling my vacation attempts.
On the other hand! I do like snow, and we got a lot of it. Although I wont be here to enjoy the first white Christmas we've had in a while, I fully intend to make a snow village when I get back! If there's still snow. ::crosses fingers::

So, I've decided not to take next semester. Too much going on. Need to get a serious job and attempt to make some serious money before I head out to VA. Need to figure out how to start claiming residency in two states...That would help a whole lot. Then I wouldn't have so much time in between semesters.

Need to take more pictures. I need to update everything on all my sites. I was going through all my sites the other day and I have 9! Good God.

Right, so, brain power died. Need to go find something that has a lot of caffeine.

So, last night I was at my mom's, taking care of the animals while she took a friend to El Paso for a post-surgery check up, and someone knocks on the door at 8:30pm. Now, I live out in the middle of no where, as most of you know, and NO ONE comes to my house unless there's a large amount of arm twisting. Needless to say, being the only one home at the time, it scared the shit out of me and my so called watch dogs. Turns out it's Logan! Apparently he was offered some money for his Jeep which he had been keeping at my house and had come over with his girlfriend Mari to jump start it at take it back to his house. No big deal, but when I went out there a while later to see if they needed any help it was to find cactus exploding out of the hood of the jeep. Large ass pack rat nest! Cripes!
I've never seen one that large, although it's a good guess that maybe the nests hadn't been completed when I had found them. So, we're looking at whats currently covering his engine and all other available space when I make out two babies on top of the engine compartment. However these babies are the size of a full grown mouse. Of course, what with there being two females in the general vacinity, there was lots off "Aww! How cute", at which point Mari asks if I have anything to keep them in. It's at that point where the red warning bulb starts flashing in my head. Was I keeping them or was she keeping them? And for god's sake, there surely had to be some way to put them somewhere equally warm where their mother could find them...
Well, needless to say, there was not, being as how Logan's jeep was sitting on the only clear spot on our property. So, guess what I have in a shoe box in my bathroom tub?
We've got a winner folks.




It's at this point I would like to mention that I finally got Comcast cable set up at my apartment and what normally would have taken at least 15 minutes to load that picture only took all of 2 seconds! Fuck ya!

Anyway, now I'm trying to figure out what to do, and I also need to make a guess at how old they are, but need to do more research on them first. They are so frickin' cute though. Hope that Aric doesn't figure it out , although I don't know if Logan has spilled the beans to him yet or not. We'll see. I'm refraning from naming them at the moment due to the supposed theory that you wont grow attached to them if you don't name them...I'm thinking that's a load of bullshit because I haven't named the last 4 pets I've managed to aquire and I still managed to grow way too attached to them...

Well, homeork must needs doing.

Hoot! I'm tired. Ick. So, I'm thinkin' I really like my biology teacher. Now if I can just keep up this enthusiasm for my class. Damn me and my tendency to get bored easily! She was talking about roaches earlier. I hate roaches...ewww...

Whoo! Road trip. Can't wait for this stupid week to end so I can once again flee the state for even just a little while. Need to remember to buy batteries for the camera and mess around with it some more so that I know what I'm doing and don't fuck up a whole bunch of pictures. And I refuse to be sick while traveling! Damnit. So this cold can just go away. Along with the stupid allergies.

I really need to get internet at the apartment. Me fleeing around town desperately trying to find a computer is getting old. I get bored at the apartment. Bleh.

Well, can't think of anything else to write about. Bye!

So, I think I'm gonna get a car. YAY. Gawd. I hate shopping for cars. Way too much paranoia and nerves involved for my taste. On the other hand, my car now smells like something died in it and I think the mice got to the radiator because I'm smelling coolant and the like. Stupid mice. I can't figure out how they're getting in and there for can't figure out how to stop it. But this has been going on for roughly two months now. Time to get new transportation. I guess the plan is go get something temporary and then sell it once we find what we really want. I'll be sharing a car with my mom and using it a lot to take my grandmother to places as well because her car is acting up (go figure). Fuck all. So anyway, the most likely vehicle is a Ford Explorer. Which means I can haul stuff! Sweet. It's blue, and red on the inside, which reminds me of my other grandmother's old station wagon which she no longer has. It used to smell like cinnimon gum...I miss cinnimon gum...Now, if I chew it, my tongue goes numb.

In other news, I drove down to Alamagordo the other week and there were vultures EVERYWHERE! Which was awesome because I got to take pictures of them with my new camera. I also saw some antelope, which looked really pathetic. They were obviously starving and prime victimes of some semi because they were on the road. I felt sorry for them.

Here are pictures. Enjoy!

Hehe...so, my profile views are at 666...Nice

We're babysitting kittens over the week of Outlandish for a friend and they're cute! I want one. Also helping a friend out with animals while they're at Disney Land. I wanna go to Disney Land...I think. Maybe not. But yeah, our cat is going bizerk. His eyes are all dialated and he keeps trying to find the kittens. We hid them under Aric's bed for the moment because there's this large nifty compartment and that way they wont get into stuff. They're not quite litter trained yet I don't think.

Anyhoo. The whole 666 inspired me to at least post something. Going to go to bed now.

Today rocked, if for no other reason than Dawn took me to this spiffy japanese restraunt. =D

There was this bar thing that we sat at while these chefs made sushi and rolls. They were awesome! And they had all kinds of sushi. Never thought I would be able to eat raw fish that actually looked like raw fish. It was soooo good. And, I learned how to use chop sticks, which was kick ass too. Didn't do too bad for having never used them before.

The place was called I Love Sushi something Grill. I'm gonna drag my mom and brother there sometime. It was a little expensive, but it would be worth it. They had this soup stuff also. I forget what it was called. Sounded like Mushy

So, Dawn has this site called Poetry Dance Hall and she talked me into joining in on the fun. Check out her site at PoetryDanceHall.blogspot.com. The latest assignment is Magnetic Poetry. You know those irritating random magnetic words that you often find on creative people's refrigerator that are usually laid out in a cute little poem or saying? The ones that lure you into trying to come up with something original yourself, but 15 minutes later, you're still staring in frustration at the blank white surface, while the cute poem is laughing at you? Yep, those. Well, it took me about 2 hours, but I managed to come up with one however rough it may be. It's weirdly addicting. I want to do another one, but the thought is still kinda daunting. Dawn has several sites that you can use for the assignment in the first post concerning said assignment, though I used MagneticPoetry.com.

So, here it is

So, I had smoked oysters last night. I was expecting to be totally grossed out and fighting gag reflexes, but they were good! Yum yum. And there was curry too, and other yummy snack food that I hadn't tried before or at least not for a while. Dawn rocks =D
 
So, I've been freaking out for the past couple of days because I wanted to post but didn't have the time or oppurtunity and now I don't know what I wanted to post about. Damnses its!
 
I have this demo thing tomorrow evening over at the morman church in Edgewood. Random request to help out because they are short of people and need someone to help explain the fighting and keep all the cub scouts from stabbing each other. Should be interesting. I need to run home after school and change into SCA gear that has been stuffed in my closet for the last year and a half. Ewww...I don't have time to wash it. But it was clean when I put it in there. We'll see.
 
I almost died today. Twice. For some unknown reason I could not sleep last night. It's these stupid alergies I've been fighting all week. Today they were magnified horribly by the fact that I was running low on fuel and energy. I had to drive all the frick back out here so I could fall into a coma for 2 hours before going back to class. Anyway, on the way into class, I almost fell asleep, and then, on the way back out here, a stupid semi decided to ignore the fact that I was in the lane that he wanted to be in. Stupid drivers.
 
I got home and decided to tie up some stuff online while I waited for food to magically appear in front of me. Everytime I sat down, the cat would immediately levitate into my lap and be asleep in no time. Apparently he's not happy that the only person he can sleep on hasn't been home to sleep on for the past week. I miss animals.
 
And it's fucking cold in here. Stupid pot pies and taking forever to cook...Grrr.
 
I'mma gonna get my server's license on Friday! All the stuff that my family had planned for me disappeared. Yay!
