evile: hi :)
SkyeDS: hola :)
evile: You know...I never really listened to the words of that song
before.
SkyeDS: mood thing
evile: *nod*
evile: I'm just grumpy today.
evile: Oh, yay. The September poly dinner schedule is finally up!
SkyeDS: horses go to get coggins pulled in the morning
SkyeDS: brains feel like bout to fall out of head
evile: *hugs* sorry you aren't feeling well.
SkyeDS: thankee kindly
SkyeDS: I could, I suppose, just choose not to let people push buttons
evile: it's tough.
SkyeDS: even if said people are parents and installed said buttons
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: they are apparently coming this weekend to finish the building
SkyeDS: so Mom asks me if we got the roof up
SkyeDS: well, no, we don't have the roof up, otherwise it would be
finished.
SkyeDS: why not?
SkyeDS: well let's see
SkyeDS: Saturday was spent arguing about the event
SkyeDS: Sunday was spent with group lessons
SkyeDS: and Monday, yes, I went to the movies
SkyeDS: besides it was RAINING
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: I do not post my schedule for people to criticize what I
choose to do with my time
evile: yup.
SkyeDS: oh and then I shouldn't post no trespassing signs because it
will stir shit with the niehgbors
SkyeDS: got news for you honey, I have to post them neighbors or no
to protect myself from lawsuits
evile: it's your land. You have to do what will protect your property
SkyeDS: somebody gets hurt on my land, if it isn't posted private, I
get sued
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: I don't see why she has to criticize and lay guilt for every
damn thing I do
SkyeDS: I had a fuckin shitty weekend
SkyeDS: I did not need my decisions criticized.
evile: it's not about you, it's about her. If that helps.
SkyeDS: well, I'm examining my options
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: next time she asks did something get done, no
SkyeDS: why not
SkyeDS: because it didn't
SkyeDS: no explanation
evile: yup
SkyeDS: they refuse to defend their decisions to me
SkyeDS: I don't see why I should have to defend mine
evile: exactly!
SkyeDS: I should be able to say, unpleasantness occurred, I don't
want to talk about it
SkyeDS: I damn well do know enough to know to do research on what I
don't know
evile: especially since it's still recent & still re-offends you
every time you discuss it!
SkyeDS: I don't need to be told how to handle my neighbors
evile: they are mannerless pigs, you are dealing with them
accordingly. You know the neighbors better than your 'rents.
SkyeDS: she's turning into my Gramma I swear to god
evile: We all turn into our mothers, so it's said.
evile: (terrifying thought, BTW)
SkyeDS: that makes my head hurt worse
evile: sorry.
SkyeDS: I had set that thing to friends only and then every time I do
an edit, I discover I have to keep setting it that way
SkyeDS: I know Mom thinks I shouldn't even write a letter
SkyeDS: but threatening to call the police on me settled that
indecision
evile: You have to set up each entry, I think, as far as privacy
settings. unless you set the whole thing friends-only, which I don't
know how to do.
evile: Bryce had to set his friends-only a while back.
SkyeDS: thank you for the org suggestion, that helped immensely
evile: You're welcome. You did all the hard stuff :P
SkyeDS: think I'll fax it Friday
SkyeDS: that will give her all weekend to think on it
evile: *nod*
evile: Polydinner on the 23rd is Ararat! I've been wanting to try
that place for ages!
SkyeDS: I wonder if it's not sinus after all
SkyeDS: my eyes are watery, and I can't tell if it's sinus or that I
feel like crying for no reason at all
evile: I think ragweed is still high.
evile: A good cry is a big stress-reliever.
evile: (assuming it's done privately--Ihate crying in front of
people :P)
SkyeDS: ok I'm bad
SkyeDS: I just bid on four ebay auctions
SkyeDS: a set of 10 of those beautiful egyptian bottles
SkyeDS: I have no need of those
SkyeDS: a white collar and headset for Jesse
SkyeDS: and a full matching set w/ robes for Mirage
evile: cool :)
SkyeDS: doesn't include new tack like the Egyptian set but cheaper
SkyeDS: and I like my saddle
SkyeDS: I don't know if I could ride games in a new saddle that isn't
anything like what I'm used to
evile: I wouldn't try that, personally. I'm sure it takes a month or
2 to break in a new saddle & get used to it, at the very least a
month or 2, I would think.
SkyeDS: the blanket on this one is obviously cut for an English
saddle but I bet with a pair of scissors used judiciously and
carefully I can fix that
evile: *nod*
evile: Have you bid on anything from this seller before?
SkyeDS: no
SkyeDS: 99.6% approval, powerseller
evile: *nod* just wondering if this was a favorite merchant, or
anything like that.
SkyeDS: I'm willin to bet the bottles at least came from
arabhorsestore
evile: could be :)
evile: I think fire mountain gems had them in their last catalog,
too.
SkyeDS: maybe I could give some away as gifts
SkyeDS: I did that with my last bottle collection (I don't know why)
evile: sometimes I get tired of stuff, too.
evile: Fire mountain wants $21.71 per bottle, they are 'large size'-7-
8" high
http://www.firemountaingems.com/details.asp?PN=H141603GF
SkyeDS: this is a collection of 10 for $10
SkyeDS: but don't remember how big
evile: I'm finding that ebay often has better deals than fire
mountain, if you are looking for something specific
evile: definitely if you are only needing 1 or a handful of whatever,
rather than a whole strand/gross/whatever.
SkyeDS: ebay = buyer beware, definitely
evile: yeah
evile: Oh, dear. kaleon is being maudlin in his LJ. I am so very
tempted to tell him it's not the packaging, it's the personality. But
I'm sure he would not care to hear it...
SkyeDS: then he shouldn't say it publicly huh
evile: I'm trying to be more Buddhist these days. It fails the 'right
speech' test. Such a post would not help him, would not paint me in a
light I care to be seen in, and would not benefit anyone.
SkyeDS: well, my letter to the COC is hardly right speech either
evile: bull.
evile: You are letting your parental voice yell too loudly in your
head.
SkyeDS: welll it could be considered divisive
evile: There is nothing wrong, whatsoever, in protecting your home,
your business, and your friends/family.
SkyeDS: is way I feel about it, divisive or not
evile: There is nothing wrong in pointing out that you've been
offended and offering a way to avoid the situation in future.
evile: Being a good person does not mean you lay down and play
doormat.
evile: It is hard to be assertive in a positive way, but it is
something that must be done.
evile: If a relationship is important to you (you and chamber, you
and me, etc) you have to speak up when you are being stepped on and
give the other party a chance to make an effort to improve their
behavior.
SkyeDS: nods, and the police calling threats have got to stop.
period.
evile: absolutely.
SkyeDS: <rolls eyes>
SkyeDS: I did not get bored
evile: boy is fishing.
SkyeDS: well I haven't got time to play fish
evile: nobody does after, oh, say High School or at the most 2nd yr
of college.... :P
evile: In HS, you'd have these pathetic little characters mooning
around and being gloomy, 'nobody loves me' bla bla, and we would all
feed their drama and reassure them that they were wonderful &
loveable
evile: here in RL, if we meet a person who says "I'm ugly and
unloveable" we say "Ok, bye"
SkyeDS: I don't remember drama in HS.
evile: heh. i do :)
SkyeDS: but then I was as far away from whatever was going on, as
possible.
evile: I dont' mean to be mean. Everyone has their bad hair days, or
days htey feel unlovable and icky, and if there's already an
adult,caring relationshp in place, I am more than happy to comfort a
friend who is feeling that way.
evile: But if that is their perpetual state, and it seems more like
attention-getting behavior than a bad mood, I'd rather pass.
SkyeDS: it does amuse me, kind of, the perspective some people see
some things from
SkyeDS: I'm like, ROFL, what universe were you in?
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: I have never fuckin forced smiles in a love affair
SkyeDS: when it gets to that point I leave
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: let's just completely gloss over yelling at me, throwing
temper tantrums at me
SkyeDS: leaving the burden for time spent together all on me
SkyeDS: "i can't drive one hour to Rockdale every once in a while"
nevermind my driving to Stillfuckingwater Oklafuckinghoma 9 months
out of the year 4 years running
evile: Here's what is said "I am an unlovable, ugly person"
Here is the unsaid part "Only a real loser would love me"
and then they proceed to treat whoever loves them and finds them
beautiful accordingly, in order to fulfil their perception of
themselves.
evile: No, thank you.
SkyeDS: oh, and I didn't feel like sex one night when I was tired and
my neck was very much still out of whack
SkyeDS: and I had already taken the next day off work because I knew
I would need sleep but be physically ready for whatever the next day
evile: ugh.
evile: and it was all about him, of course, couldn't possibly be
about YOU. Just... ugh!
evile: Onyxlynxx's main guy, the adorable, talented, and gorgeous roninjedi
seems to be in one of those self-hate, drag-you-down-with-me spirals
lately. I hate to see her going through it. She deserves better.
SkyeDS: :(
evile: Oh well. She will have to decide that on her own. I think it's
coming, slowly but surely.
SkyeDS: I do so love quizzes
evile: they're fun.
SkyeDS: rofl "I shagged Snape" rofl
evile: I took a 'halloween party' quiz earlier but forgot to c&P it.
It had sineater coming to the party dressed as a princess, and you as the
porn star. the mind boggles.
SkyeDS: ROFL
SkyeDS: maybe, when I was in college
evile: *grinz*
SkyeDS: Karen had specifically requested no cat costume for the event
SkyeDS: I'm like, huh?
evile: ?
SkyeDS: apparently the entire shire had been investigating my yahoo
photo album
evile: the rockdale chamber thingy this past weekend?
SkyeDS: yep
evile: Um...how would a cat costume even be remotely related to gypsy
and/or SCA? Bizarre.
SkyeDS: well yeah
SkyeDS: I'm like, um, that was halloween many years ago
SkyeDS: I did it exactly once
evile: *nod*
SkyeDS: cannot for the life of me figure out why the entire Shire
would be gathered around one puter looking t hrough my photo album
SkyeDS: or how they even knew it was there
SkyeDS: which reminds me, I need to put all our ren pics there so we
can link them to bpr web page
evile: No telling.
evile: I've been working on a re-org of my various photos, trying to
get them into something more accessible. Why store all these megs of
photos if I never look at them because I can't find them?
SkyeDS: wonder how quickly Karen ran through them so as not to
entertain the men overly much rofl
evile: very odd & interesting, that.
evile: I guess some people just have too much time on their hands.
evile: Yahoo ate a whole bunch of my pictures in their last format
change. I can't find any of 'em anymore. Luckily I still have them in
my hard drive at home. somewhere....
SkyeDS: :(
evile: And Sweetie still hasn't set up a photo thingy for me, quelle
surprise.
evile: *LOL!* Best opening statement evar:
"To whom it may concern:
If you are reading this statement, you probably have some knowledge
of it's contents."
evile: Oh, and today's Winning Name was "Laquinta King"--person's
name, not business name.
SkyeDS: lol
evile: Hello, I am a preferred customer and I would like the Laquinta
King suite today...
SkyeDS: hehe
evile: Or maybe she was named for where she was conceived? ugh.
evile: oh, LJ is making me crazy. I keep posting coments & it keeps
saying that I've hit 'post' and left the field blank. ARGH.
SkyeDS: :(
evile: it's fun when it works.
evile: I am just bored & ready to go home. sleepy, too.
SkyeDS: nods
SkyeDS: dittos
evile: work is suckin' today. A lot of duplicates, which just waste
my time & dont' add to my production.
evile: Tonight is Elaine's b-day dinner, I'm going to give her the
ojime bead I found. I hope she likes it :)
SkyeDS: :)
evile: I keep hearing that she doesnt' collect turtles anymore, but
at every gift-giving occasion, she still gets them from people &
doesn't seem to mind...
SkyeDS: I am always thankful for gifts
SkyeDS: if it doesn't have a place in my home I always find a place
where it is happy
evile: well, I figured it was small, so even if she doesn't collect
turtles, he wont take up much space :P
SkyeDS: I loved shopping for beads and leathers and stuffs
evile: the bead show this past weekend was really awesome. There's a
smaller one October 9. One of the booths I spent a LOT of money at
will be there..
SkyeDS: :)
evile: I just can't resist Czech glass. It's so cool.
SkyeDS: I like crystals.
SkyeDS: and glass.
SkyeDS: and pretty shiny sparklies
evile: *nod*
evile: There's still some places here in town that I haven't been yet
& need to. I ought to make a list.
SkyeDS: Nomadic Notions was cool, haven't been there in while
evile: they are cool, but pricey.
SkyeDS: I think I might better start making folders in my photo album
evile: e. gave me a gift cert. for there, but said she wanted to
go with me when I spent it. She was never available, and now it's
expired.
SkyeDS: that sucks
evile: Folders are good & helpful. I had several 'private' ones that
went 'poof' in the last Yahoo reincarnation. All my 'shared' ones
still seem to be find-able, though. I don't know what's up with that.
evile: Oh, wow, time to get paperwork sorted & get on outta here.
evile: *hugs* I hope you get to feeling better about things.
