2486tina appt/ aunt l/etc

Sep. 3, 2004

 

 

[aunt L] got me from work yesterday & we went to Steinmart to look
around. She almost got a 'little baby hoochie mama' outfit for Yummy.
Thought better of it at the last minute,d arn.

Apparently L is back on the 'good list'. [the rubber pig] called to say she
is having [brother A]s baby at home with a midwife, wants it videotaped &
wants to be surrounded by A's and her family at the birth.
Um...no. I wouldn't even do that for someone I liked (sister H, J-Law,
Dee, Rio) let alone somebody whose FACE I can't stand to see.

In actual (sad) family news, [uncle bubba's wife] lost the baby. L. says they are
not making any big announcements & probably won't want a card. Bubba
is taking it harder than [wife]. :(

Me to Miscarriage Gods: "NOOO! You took the WRONG ONE!!!"

*sigh* Life is unfair sometimes. One must continue to hope & assume
that God knows what s/he's doing & these things are happening for a
higher purpose than we know.

2487a little ego boost for today:

Taken from Jose....
If you're feeling brave, waltz over to the comments section, state
your name, and I'll reply with exactly what my opinion is of you; no
more, no less.

Do keep in mind that I can be brutally honest and lack tact. You
might also see something as a fault that I see as an asset. It's a
matter of perspective.

You have been warned about mine and my honesty and my lack of tact.

If you want to go, leave your name. (It can be real or your LJ name.
If you have a problem with what I say....maybe we should talk in
person or talk over the phone.)

You'll probably hear me compliment a lot of people on intelligence. I
don't know and am not friends with people that are dumb. ;-D

You are by far one of the brightest I have met. Sexy and attractive,
you can be a bit cynical at times but it's usually just how you
express yourself. You care a lot about other people once you get to
know them and become friends. You can be a hard ass bitch when the
situation calls for it but I don't think that's a bad thing. I always
feel that I can ask for your opinion and your input and I won't get
it sugar coated but I will hear what I need to hear. Whenever you
post in my LJ or talk to me, I always listen or read attentively.
Advice like yours is golden.

And remember when I said if I swung that way, I would do you? I was
serious and I meant it. ;-D

2488a nice LJ meme

Sep. 3, 2004

 

 

say something nice about everyone on your friends list:

http://www.livejournal.com/users/elsha/170577.html

aeowyn, you are the epitome of "still waters run deep." You have such
a careful, thoughtful way about you. You seem to be a person who
chooses a path and then does everything to attain you goal.

appleang, you are the original Hostess with the Mostest. You are so
outgoing, perceptive, and intelligent. You manage to make everyone
you speak with feel like they are just as interesting and wonderful
as you are. That is a very special gift. Spending time with you is
always warm & comfortable.

bananarob, you are such a man of the world without being some snotty
yuppie jerk. You appreciate fine things in life, are well-traveled
and well-informed and aren't afraid to tell people when they're being
jackasses.

cairun, you are such a sweetheart. You try and you sometimes fail,
but you never fail to keep trying and keep doing your best. You
aren't sure where you're going or what you're doing or who you are
100% of the time, but I admire you for keeping on asking those
questions and making that effort to find your place in your own skin
& in life.

cfred, I admire you for being able to pick up and go. When I first
met you, I think you were a Bostonian, then you lived in godawful
bible belt TX, and then, poof you were gone back to the northeast.
You are not afraid to move and change, and I admire that.

chrisloy, I keep seeing you at gatherings and we never make our way
past the throngs to talk in RL, but your LJ is so REAL. You don't shy
away from the tough things in life, you are fully present in your own
life & doing what you can to make it better.

danicia, You are such a complex person. I don't think I realized that
as much when we hung out in RL as I have from reading your LJ. You
are another free spirit I admire.

darien_spider, you seem like a very honorable & honest person. You
seem to also wear your heart on your sleeve. I imagine you probably
get tired of being treated like a teddy bear by people, but you are
just too cuddly! I feel totally safe around you.

elizagoth, It's been WAY too long since the last time we hung out.
You are the most interesting bunch of contradictions I can think of.
You are venomously snarky & your wit can be quite deadly but at the
same cute as a button. You are also the coolest mom I know.

elphie,

erinlefey, foulmouthedb, frozenrhino, fungus_finger, galen78748,
hojo_loves_you, hoo, ivilon, jadeysmyname, kaasirpent, kieron,
kilsharion, knightdragon89, knighthorse, kulilinei, kyleigh812,

evile: Tgif! FINALLY!!!!
SkyeDS: yep
evile: I am NOT going to watch that horrible woman squirt out a baby.
SkyeDS: please don't tell me Aunt L or your Mom is gonna
evile: I have no idea. I guess it'll be up to them to decide if the
trauma is worth it.
SkyeDS: I was thinking about movies, Sun v Mon
SkyeDS: your days are nice and slotted and timed
evile: What a godawful attention whore. is there no depth to which
she will not sink? If she wants to be 'natural' she should dig a hole
and go in there and have her baby all by herself.
SkyeDS: I will be up probably past midnight on Saturday night, my
lessons won't happen until after I"m up and functional Sunday, who
knows when that will be, and karen wants to ride afterwards
SkyeDS: so if we want to do nice time slots, that would make Monday.
SkyeDS: I'm with Nikiyoy. I don't want to see myself.
SkyeDS: don't show me pictures.
SkyeDS: and don't put the goddamned bloody raisin in my arms with the
cord still attached.
evile: yup. that whole thing is just..ew.
evile: Do you want to look at show times Sunday evening or MOnday
for movies,or just Monday?
SkyeDS: we can go on Sunday but I can't guarantee when, although I
would think later.
SkyeDS: but I know travelling on Monday will suck, but that doesn't
bother me so much
SkyeDS: I have backways
evile: Yeah...you just have to keep an eye out for the drunks.
SkyeDS: would Monday be ok? or, what time were you thinking Sunday?
SkyeDS: I wanted to see Potter and Shrek personally
SkyeDS: Hugh said King Arthur was ok, but I don't think I like their
treatment of it already
evile: I'm looking at the Chronicle now. I could see any of those.
evile: Do you want to try a double feature, or just 1 movie, or ?
SkyeDS: at least 2 :P
evile: Looks like harry potter is a long-ish movie.
SkyeDS: they usually are
SkyeDS: the last one was to die for, Jason Isaacs, Alan Rickman,
Kenneth Branagh
evile: Shrek at 11 and HP at 1 might work, or is that too early?
SkyeDS: nothing is too early Monday :)
evile: and then maybe if we feel crazy, king arthur at 6:50?
SkyeDS: we are so bad
evile: bad?
SkyeDS: last time we went to see two, we only paid for one
evile: I think that's pretty common practice. Personally I like to
save the ticket stubs. which means I gotta buy a ticket.
SkyeDS: that's the first time I've ever done t hat
evile: *nod* I think I used to do that when I was a kid. I can't
remember. I know we used to sneak candy in.
evile: and I still do that from time to time.
SkyeDS: my purse is too small for that
evile: I have more than 1 purse for just such emergencies :)
evile: I usually just carry my 'wallet on a string' but I have a
backpack-looking purse for when I need to carry STUFF
SkyeDS: I should do that
SkyeDS: used to carry in stuff all the time
evile: I can't carry a purse all the time, I stash too much crap &
give myself bursitis.
SkyeDS: I wouldn't carry one at all, just my wallet, but sineater bought
me a nice little black leather number
evile: *nod*
evile: I love shopping for shoes & purses.
SkyeDS: hate to admit it, but I love shopping period
SkyeDS: for anything
evile: I hate trying on clothes.
SkyeDS: and what's really cool is to get paid to spend someone else's
money on horses
evile: now that is fun. :)
evile: Oh, I don't know if they're telling people anything yet, but
U--- miscarried her baby. Uncle Bubba is crushed. I can't imagine
how cruel it would be to force them to see [the rubber pig]'s 'blessed even't
after that.. :(
SkyeDS: :(
evile: but of course [the rubber pig] has no empathy, it's all about HER and if
Bubba & [his wife] don't show up, they'll remain on the 'bad list'.
evile: I'm not going. I dont' care. If I have to book a cruise out
of the country during the week she's due, I will.
SkyeDS: wish I could
SkyeDS: but she didn't invite me so not necessary
evile: ...YET.
evile: [aunt L] predicts that the closer it gets to baby-time, the more
[rubber pig] will be trying to get in touch with people to secure baby gifts
& etc.
SkyeDS: I'm broke.
SkyeDS: nevermind the to do list I'm about to spend money on
evile: That or trying to farm out one or more of the older/less cute
than a baaaaby kids
SkyeDS: I need toys for the purposes of teaching lessons, it's part
of my livelihood
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: (damn I'm good when I want to rationalize something)
evile: I will spend a lot more on something I need for Magpies than I
will on just myself.
SkyeDS: got too much to do with our newfound wealth, sorry
evile: heh.
SkyeDS: will be happy to send a nice card
SkyeDS: shoebox greetings
evile: assuming they share their new address when/if they move. I am
thinking this move may be the 'break with [brother A]'s family' move.
SkyeDS: they want something from me, they'd better give me
appropriate information
evile: [brother A] & [the rubber pig] were both really squirrely about giving out the
address to their last place. [aunt L] finally had to say something on the
phone about wanting to mail the girls some dresses.
SkyeDS: for Jesse: http://www.elsuenoespanol.com/prod11.htm
SkyeDS: although I wonder if we couldn't put her in a set to match
Ragi's
evile: way cool!
evile: Maybe I should send [rubber pig] a shovel & tell her to start digging
her den, like a good little vixen...

SkyeDS: ROFL
evile: hey,she says she wants to have her baby 'natural'--what's
more natural than the way animals do it?
evile: :P
SkyeDS: I'll have the sixpack of morphine ot go please thanks
evile: *nodnod*
evile: Maybe I should give the newly'weds' a microwave oven...that
I've modified so that it will sterilize them when they run it.
SkyeDS: LOL
evile: I guess I'd have to give them a microwave stand, too, to make
sure that the waves hit at the right place...
evile: god knows [brother A] doesn't need it at head level, his brains are
already cooked enough.
evile: You know, if I somehow got forced or guilted into seeing the
myrakul of brrth, I could have a lot of fun. Get very drunk. make
obnoxious comments. It could be amusing.
evile: another song from the De-Lovely soundtrack just came up on my
launchcast. I just love the music from that movie :)
SkyeDS: School of Rock had a good soundtrack
evile: *nod* THat was actually a cute movie. I had my doubts, but
I 'm glad I saw it.
SkyeDS: Vanity Fair looks good
SkyeDS: didn't realize it has Gabriel Byrne in it until last night
evile: *nodnodnod!*
SkyeDS: he made a wonderful movie on his own called Into the West
evile: I heard about it but never saw it.
SkyeDS: very good
evile: I bet :)
evile: Oh, no, Jerry Springer filed an appeal :P
SkyeDS: on what
evile: he got denied his unemployment! :P
evile: that's one of those unfortunate names the mother could not
have known was going to turn out poorly when the kid was born....
SkyeDS: lol
evile: can you imagine? that would just suck SO much!
SkyeDS: Hugh has a lawyer friend whose last name is McSwindle
SkyeDS: no. it's Ed Mac Swindle
evile: heh. That's like the apocryphal "dewey, cheatham, and Howe"
attorneys office...
evile: OMG--kaleon's finally writing in his LJ! What a mess!
SkyeDS: my fault I'm afraid
SkyeDS: I told him when I told everyone else that I use it to post my
calendar
evile: He certainly is unlikeable in print...
SkyeDS: he seemed so happy without me the first two times <shrugs>
evile: I wonder if he's trying to craft a persona with all of that
tough guy nonsense.
SkyeDS: he's always crafting personas, I don't think he ever stops
evile: I don't like the new one much. guns and whores. ick!
SkyeDS: that's begging for attention
SkyeDS: he isn't going to get it from me
evile: I think so too.
SkyeDS: he wanted me to come by weeks ago and get my birthday present
SkyeDS: I don't even know why he bought me one
SkyeDS: we broke up at Valentine's
evile: bizarre.
SkyeDS: so I told him when I could come by and he just couldn't fit
me into his schedule
SkyeDS: <shrug>
evile: VERY bizarre.
SkyeDS: I spent 7 years fitting into his schedule
SkyeDS: 7 years, driving 450 miles one way, 9 months out of the year
SkyeDS: and now he can't drive his poor little POS car to Rockdale
SkyeDS: boo fucking hoo
SkyeDS: tell me I don't give enough
evile: I guess he doesn't know how the mail service works? couldn't
possibly put your 'present' in a box and mail it...
SkyeDS: he doesn't have my address (so he says)
evile: and you won't give it to him? because you don't want him
showing up uninvited or stalking you or...?
SkyeDS: he hasn't asked for it
evile: (not like it isn't on your business webpage...)
SkyeDS: there's that too
evile: sounds like a bunch of passive agressive BS to me.
SkyeDS: <shrugs>
evile: Oh well. I am not sure he'll like the type of person he
attracts to his LJ with that kind of talk..but it might be fun to
watch
SkyeDS: he wants to be Van Helsing...a cross between Blade and Don
Juan. <shrug>
evile: *blinkblinkblink* heehee. Ok.
SkyeDS: I thought, for a while, he was happy to be himself, but who
knows
evile: *nod* I think at heart he is a decent person. He just has all
these issues & defense mechanisms and whatnot built up around him, so
nobody gets to know or like the real person underneath.
SkyeDS: for some reason I don't think he knows or likes the real
person
evile: *nod* I can certainly sympathize, but that's just something
he's going to have to deal with on his own. Nobody can make you like
yourself.
evile: back in the day, I used to do similar. put up a bunch of
facades and get all "oh, nobody likes/would like the real me"...but
never gave them a chance to know that person.
SkyeDS: I have that problem and I have never put up a facade on
purpose
evile: *nod* rejection is hard. Everyone wants to be loved and
respected, no matter how much they act like it doesn't matter.
SkyeDS: so, meet at the theater, Monday?
evile: sounds like a plan :)
SkyeDS: eat before? after?
evile: hm. good question. I'm trying to picture what's up thataway. I
think there's a Taco Cabana at Parmer (?)
SkyeDS: in the same center there's McD's, Taco Hell and Subway
evile: Oh, right! And I think a Gatti's up near the front.
SkyeDS: and yes there's a TC on Parmer/Mo
SkyeDS: and a not so good Chinese place
evile: any of those strike your fancy?
evile: the first movie is 11, so I might want something more
breakfast-ish.
SkyeDS: any of them are good, ther'es also ChickFila close
evile: ew. christians.
SkyeDS: lol k
evile: How about Taco Cabana, it's easy & there ought to be enough
variety in the menu
SkyeDS: k
SkyeDS: what's our first show time?
evile: 11.
evile: I'm thinking 9:30-10?
SkyeDS: that would be breakfast ya?
evile: I imagine they'd still be serving breakfast then.
SkyeDS: 9:30ish it is then :)
evile: cool.
evile: Well, time for me to blow this popstand. I am going to do my
best to make it to Rockdale festival-thingy tomorrow
afternoon/evening.
SkyeDS: need directions?
evile: How big can Rockdale possibly be? I've got a TX map, and
hopefully there will be a sign for the park/festival/stuff once I get
there...I'm thinkin, anyway.
SkyeDS: rofl
SkyeDS: right
SkyeDS: downtown, Wolf park, across from mcvoy's feed and the train
depot
evile: *nod* That should be easy enough to find. esp if you're
hanging with a bunch of SCA freaks :P
SkyeDS: should be LOL
evile: okeydoke. see ya manyana :)
*hugs* have a safe drive home. watch out for the maniacs.
SkyeDS: HUGS
