( 1. I have added you as a friend and you have no idea why. )

( 2. I want to add you as a friend, but I'm afraid you won't like me! )

( 3. I want an icon made for me and instead of asking a talented artist to make one for me, I want to ask you! )

( 4. Oni! Who is the older gentlemen on your layout that I now find myself strangly attracted to? )

Yeah. So, I'm alive.

I have internet, and tv. I'm completely moved in, but not completely unpacked.

However, Life is not going so well. Lots of bad things happening all at once, and I have no where near enough cigarettes to get me through it. I'll be on sporadically, but I'll be on. Woot.

I've spent all morning watching over the last two weeks Daily Show's and Colbert Reports. Squee! Jon/Wyatt? The toss? John Oliver at Geithner's house? I approve!

Hope everyone's been doing okay. Peace.

Okay, so it's been a long frickin month. I've been literally packing, unpacking, and packing for weeks now. Thought we had an apartment, then found out no such luck. Had to unpack a lot of things, in the name of basic necessity. Finally found an apartment, and had to pack it all back up. Tomorrow, we begin moving. Simmer down, I have a point, I promise.

Does anyone have any suggestions for songs that I can put onto my Ipod? I'm tired of listening to the same old, same old, but I not good at finding new music.

What's your favorite band? A song you can't stop listening to? The genre doesn't matter, I will listen to anything.

No, really.

I. Will. Listen. To. Anything.

So, REC AWAY!

Man Charged 23 Quadrillion Bucks for Pack of Cigarettes

This best part of this story is that not ten minutes before I read it, my finance came in and bitched to me about how much my cigarettes cost. It was as if God was setting me up for a joke.

The people who make Torchwood are the most evil people in the entire world. No really. They are evil sick bastards.

If you haven't yet watched Children of Earth, and you believe in happiness, love, and have hopes, and dreams, I tell you this. Don't.

So I have a few things I feel are important enough to cover.

1. In my new found obsession with John Oliver, I have been listening to old episodes of the Bugle in attempt to get a non stop fix of Oliver. In this insane marathon from hell three things have occurred. First, I have discovered I love John Oliver more than previously thought. Second, I found a new obsession with Andy Zaltzman. Third, I have listened to them, nonstop, for so long, that the voice in my head, now has a british accent. I'm serious. As I'm typing this out, the voice in my head is reading it back in a British accent with a slightly ironic tone to it. I haven't decided whether to love that or to hate it.

2. I am unable to go to sleep. No really. My eyes are bleeding from being awake this long, and I cannot physically walk around, but I cannot sleep. I dread reading this entry after I am completely awake. Which, from the way things are going now, may never happen.

3. Allie. Call me and inform of your current location or I will go to you apartment, break in if Kaitlin is unwilling to give me the key, and kidnap Luna and Baxter. I mean it. I will hold the damn rats hostage until you apologize for your continued absence from Northern Kentucky.

(If you are wondering how it would be possible for me to break into your apartment, I would like to remind you of the very large window in your living room, and the very large tree that makes a perfect ladder straight up to it. I would also remind you of my ability to completely forgo any concern of my own well-being in the name of revenge.

I'm just saying, if you love your rats, and to a lesser extent, your window, call me.

Well, I just happened to think it was time I showed you guys just how much of a loserspare time I have! Sorry if these suck. No really. Sorry. But seriously, can you tell Blue is my favorite color?

Graphics Journal

This isn't really important, or journal writing worthy, but oh well I felt like writing something.

If you're still here after that glowing recommendation you'll be pleased to know this short, so hopefully it won't take up much of your time.

Hello, my name is Susan, and I am addicted to The Sims 3.

No seriously. I made a Stephen and a Jon, and I can't stop playing. Someone please help me. I haven't eaten in days...

I'm just kidding about the eating thing though. Believe me, I'm a fat kid. I may not leave my desk, sleep, or have any human contact, but I will find a way to eat.

On to other news:

Iran: *is still breaking my heart*
Keith: *is still being sexy*
Obama: *is still pissing me off while at the same time making me love and adore him*
Death: *is still reminding us that he is an dirty bitch.*
Republicans: *are still going out of their way to make themselves available to be comical fodder*

Have a good day, for I shall now return to The Sims 3.

And please people, try not to kill yourself.

Some graphics to help Support the Iranian Revolution. I know, it's such a pitiful thing, but hopefully it helps somewhat. Oh! If you really want to help, email any website or organization you may be a part of and ask them to go green and black in support! Take pictures and post them on Twitter, or even send them into news organizations. We may not be able to help with the government, but we can show the Iranian people that they are not alone!

I've been following the Iran Protests very closely through Twitter for the last three days. Yes, I said Twitter, because the Big3 Fail horribly. The only one doing true coverage is Faux News, and they are spinning it in such a way, that Iranian State TV(the only TV still allowed to run in Iran) keeps showing clips of it, to prove how U.S.A are dicks. Good times.

Point of this entry?

I have to stop following this or I'm going to go batshit. I can't keep watching the videos of people being beat, or the bloody bodies, or reading Tweets from people who say, 'Well, going to the protest; pray for me.' and then not seeing them tweet again. It's, well, soul crushing.

Especially watching our government play a lovely game of, "Let's Wait and See".

I'm not an idiot. I know why they can't say anything, and I don't expect them too. However, I honest to god cannot watch these things knowing the only thing I can do to help is some basic web-hackery skills. It helps now, but it won't help in the long run. People are dying. D-Y-I-N-G. Dying Dead.

This guy I've been following constantly for three days, my main updater if you will, just disappeared for over five hours. Everyone assumed the worst. Turns out his house was broken in, laptop smashed, and he was beaten. He's alive, but he can't go to a hospital because the hospital's because any protesters taken to hospital's are being arrested.

It's pure chaos.

And If I don't get away from it for a while, I'm afraid that the rest of the world is going to go bat shit insane with me.

So, Zimmerman just came out with a new zinger. It's very folksy, and gives you a warm feeling of warm summer nights and sweet summer memories. However, once the words begin to wash over you, you can feel that thunderstorm rolling over your perfect summer day. It starts off by celebrating the landmark case of Loving vs. Virgina, that mad interracial marriage legal. However, soon reality starts to set in that no matter that we wrote bigotry out of our laws those 40 some years ago, we're about to do it again.

You go Roy Zimmerman.

Summary of Obama speech:

Obama: "Guys. Guys. It's cool. I got this."

Audience at Cairo: "K!" *are dazzled*

Random Fangirl in Audience: "OMGILOVEYOU!"

At least, that's what I took out of it. Was it just me?

So, I updated my first page. I took down my "Friends Only" Banner and replaced it with An "I don't do Friends Only Posts but I want a pretty banner on my journal" Banner!

Yeah. I'm cool like that. I also updated that page with a short FAQ section. It's funny, you should check it out. I'm just saying...

*flies away*

So, one of my closest friends in the world, arwoodk87 is having a baby. Yes, she will be the first of the Trifecta From Hell(TM) to actually spawn a child. Unless, of course, blueblade_rose or I get knocked up in the next few days and then deliver premature, but that's a different story entirely.

And I think everyone knows what this means.

I GET A PRACTICE BABY!!!!!!!!


Joking. Mostly.

WooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooW.

OMGWOW.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

CANTALOPES!!

Yes, in case you are wondering, I did just watch the HBP trailer.

Squee!

I'm serious as a heart attack when I say this: I love my country. I really do. I love the fact that our culture is that we have no culture. I love the insane level of patriotism we have. I love barbecues, hot dogs, fireworks, broken pick-up trucks, fast food, stars and stripes, loud drunken hicks at dive bars, Bruce Springsteen, Toby Keith, and our boys in blue, red, and camo.

But I swear to god if we keep going with this 'EXTREMIST BANDWAGON' trend we're on at the moment, I am going to pack up and run.

We pay some of the lowest taxes in the world and yet people are out throwing sexual innuendos on the White House lawn. Why? Do you know? I'm not sure I really know.

Because the top one percent of American's may see their taxes raise a bit?

Because we bailed out some businesses that control a good fraction of American jobs?

Because Obama gets up there and speaks like an honest human being instead of throwing a load of shit at us?

Because the gays are getting married? (I'm going with this one.)

While I may not know whether the stimulus will work the way we want it to, I do know this. There is only one 100% absolutely positive way to make sure we end up in a Depression.

Doing Absolutely Nothing.

Also, do you people even know what a grassroots movement is? Wait, don't answer that. No matter what you say, I promise, I already know the answer.

Idiots.

Summary: Many men and women would do anything to be in Perry Cox’s shoes. Two weeks’ vacation, to be spent alone on his ex-wife’s beach front holiday house, twenty minutes from any sort of civilization and a good half a mile from his closest neighbors. Naturally, Perry was miserable.
Author's Note: I am so sorry for how long this took. Also, it should be knowthat I suck at replying to reviews. Will get on that soon, I promise! Thanks once again to Joanna Hepler for being an awesome BETA and just awesome in general, and thanks to BBR for helping me figure out how to start this damn thing off.

It should be known that no dolphins were harmed in the writing of this story.

Sometimes, I see something that really just makes me want to scream, yell, slander, murder, and then when I’m done with all that, go home, curl into a ball, and weep. This video is one of those things.

The National Organization for Marriage

I mean honestly, what kind of sick people think up these things? This shows me that there is a room somewhere where men and women sit down and try to figure out ways to be bigots, without saying they are bigots. Well I have news for you, ya bigots, a bag of trash sprayed down with fabreeze is still trash.

In my constant vigilance of keeping track of the enemies strategies, I went to check out their website. In my electronic subterfuge I found this. They actually have a section where they tell you what to say when arguing with a SSM( That is what they call Supporters of Same-sex Marriage). Here’s a short preview:

Language to avoid at all costs: "Ban same-sex marriage." Our base loves this wording. So do supporters of SSM. They know it causes us to lose about ten percentage points in polls. Don’t use it. Say we’re against “redefining marriage” or in favor or “marriage as the union of husband and wife” NEVER “banning same-sex marriage.”

Yeah. Yeah. I know. They even have a section for pointers you can put on a 3x5 index card that you can keep with you at all times! Because, ya know, god forbid someone actually take a stance on an issue and then actually know why they support that issue! I mean come, that’s just asking too much of people.

• Marriage is between a husband and wife. The people of [this state] do not want marriage to be anything but that. We do not want government or judges changing that definition for us today or our children tomorrow.
• We need a marriage amendment to settle the gay marriage issue once and for all, so we don’t have it in our face every day for the next ten years.
• Marriage is about bringing together men and women so children can have mothers and fathers.
•Do we want to teach the next generation that one-half of humanity—either mothers or fathers—are dispensable, unimportant? Children are confused enough right now with sexual messages. Let’s not confuse them further.
•Gays and Lesbians have a right to live as they choose; they don’t have a right to redefine marriage for the rest of us.

If you are ever arguing with someone about gay marriage, and they give you any one of these arguments, here is what you should do. Ask to see their index card, tear it up in front of them, and when your done laughing in their face you should then rattle off all the reasons why you are for gay marriage that you thought up all by yourself, thank you very much.

Then set them on fire for being an ignorant bigot.

Oh, I'm sorry. I may have phrased that incorrectly. Kill me, please?

My damn mermaid arch is coming soon, I promise, but...and I know this is going to sound like the lamest excuse ever...but I hurt my wrist. And yes, my inner stereotypical jock guy tells me there is a limp-wristed crack to be found there somewhere, but I am far too tired and he is far too stupid so I'll let you do the work, if you so wish.

God it hurts to type or smoke. I hate smoking with my other hand.

So yeah, it was extremely painful for me to bring this update to you. :D Your welcome. You'll know when the pain is gone, because the mermaid story will be posted. Sorries.
