Nothing terribly new to report, except that next year I will have a special visitor :) Unfortunately, something did manage to pass me by recently that I'm trying to work on. My ten year for High school passed without anything to commemorate it. Not that I am terribly attached to the idea of a reunion, since a lot has changed, but I at least want a chance to see some of the people I know. Maybe some friends I miss or people who deserve another chance. Should be fun :)

GM Viral Ad campaign
Normally I don't do the whole soapbox thing, but I had to do this after what I just saw. Maybe you have seen the videos about cars flying in Hollywood, down a highway, and over a neghborhood in various "homemade" videos on youtube and the like. Apparently GM has decided that the best way to sell a car is to make up some lame hoax and get you to respond to it. I would like to believe that I'm not that gullible, but to me it seems a bit odd to try and sell a car by building a reputation on...hoaxes? So are they going to reveal that the latest hoax is that their cars run? Just my two cents. GM, you have an F for this campaign.

**sigh**
SO here it is, late at night, unbearably humid, and I need to do DOMETHING or I'll go insane. I don't know what else to say right now, except I do miss everyone and can't wait to see you all at the Gasp (if you attend). For those of you who know me and don't go to the Last Gasp you can always throw something at me with the comment button and see if I respond :) Mostly I'm just tired, though. I want everything to have been a bad dream and wake up tomorrow with everything "right" I think I'd even settle for things just being a little less difficult to set right. Being me isn't easy, thank god it's fun.

Newst news
Real short update today :) I am such a geekette! I just found the avvie that...I think might be down near the bottom of the page. Apparently something is mungled about the page and I have no clue what is doing it, but it's there if you look and I think if you view single posts it will show up normally. The name change should be grinding it's slow way through the works as I type, so I am understandably excited and antsy about that, not to mention the fact that I have been cooped up in this ___ house for ___ days at a time!!
Background on the cooped up thing. About a year ago I let my insurance lapse for over a month, which was a nono to the DMV. After I was caught by a police officer for it, I ended up paying the fee for the suspension so I didn't need to surrender my plates. A few months later, eerything is squared away with the courts so I don't get more headaches (I love my lawyer) and everything is peachy. I make another mistake and lapse again in april, so I do the whole surrender thing for real thinking this is the end of the ordeal...heh. Not a week after I put the car back on the road, I get another note from DMV saying I need to answer for a previous lapse. I called the insurance company, who verified the lapse, and don't think to check the dates. After a week of this new suspension, I get ANOTHER note proclaiming a lapse of 309 days in my insurance and very politely asking me to hand in my license. I hit the roof. After a full day of poking around it comes about that the insurance company has decided that since my car was put back on the road with a new and improved policy, they can go ahead and RESCIND the old one. Apparently the company and DMV have a different definition of rescinsion, and since the DMV defines recinsion as meaning the policy was never valid, I get a nice 309 day lapse on my record because my insurance company forgot to look at the dictionary. That day (tuesday of last week) I call my agent and get th qupte of 72 hours to fix everything as relayed by the insurer. Call back on Monday, hear the same thing...ok. Call back on Tuesday and resolve that if I hear the 72 hours warning again I will politely count out the total number of hours that have gone by. The answer is different. On monday, when I had called, they contacted my insurer and found out NOTHING had been done yet. Not only this, but now my soon to be EX insurer has revised the time table to 6 full days. Today is day 4, and I am waiting for the last two days to pass so I can very politely tell my former insurer to ever so kindly disappear.
Hmmm, that was actually a rather long update...hee. Anyways, that's me right now :) hope you all have fun this weekend, I'll be finding entertainment on my own :)

sometimes
Wanted to make sure everyone knows I'm still peachy keen over here, maybe more so right now, since it's been a while since I've seen many of you. Got one of those itches in my thoughts I can't scratch that I had to put down, and here is the place I'm putting it.
Sometimes, too much has to change at a time. You could say it's a delicate framework, a lattice that has to be put in place before it takes stress. I tend to be like that, a delicate flower (Much to SOMEONE's ill-advised attempts at reformations) that needs to grow her stem before being piced up. That's me, thelittle garden that needs to bloom once before it can withstand the little weeds. Gonna be alittle hard to get a hold of so I can be me for a little while, not the alone me, just the me without expectations derived from advice that I'm not ready to hear...or not ready to act on. And if anyone feels this is directed at them, don't worry. I still love you. You're my extended family. I'm gonna be a bit different next we meet, but that may be a while. GGG, Old Songs, and possibly Gasp and Champlain will be no-shows this time around so I can get in touch with the me who isn't carted around at her parent's whim...I'll miss you all, and I'll see you all soon, take care, kay?
And yeah, I might still write in here, I'm not THAT heartless!! :) I care :)

quiz

Empathy- Your inner power is Empathy! This
means that you have a talent for identifying
others emotions, often by simply glancing at
them. You are EXTREMELY shy and quiet. People
sometimes dont notice youre around and seem
surprised to find out you even exist in a big
class. Youre the often silent, goody two shoes,
and few get passed the walls youve built up to
stop yourself being hurt, as you no doubt have
been in the past. Not everyone understands you,
in fact some think that youre a snob or worse
because you rarely participate in group
activities. Youre extremely sensitive, even the
least harsh of words can hurt you. Only your
very few, closest friends who have earned your
hard-to-get trust know who you really are
inside; a sweet, gentle young woman who is
lonely and so desperately needing friends to
support you. You can get very depressed and not
always know why, despite your power of empathy,
as it seems to only work for people outside
you. Your friends always turn to you when they
need advice or comforting, and in some way you
need to give that helpit makes you feel better
in return to know that youve helped out your
friends. Despite your cold, impassive exterior
and high, seemingly unbreachable walls, inside
you are really a great, intelligent person,
full of compassion and love, if only people
would dare take a chance and try to get through
your tough shell. Never let others get you
down, or change you. You are very special the
way you areeven if you dont have fifty thousand
friends, you are just as, if not more
extraordinary than everyone else. Reach for the
stars, because I dont doubt youll catch hold of
them.
Boy/Girl who will sweep you off your feet:
A sweet, shy and romantic man/woman. The kind
of guy/woman you know will never, ever hurt
you, and will love you for ever. The kind of
person who believes in true love, and soul
mates.
Your stone: Blue Topaz
Your power: Healing. Emotionally,
physically, or spiritually, you heal people
with your words, your actions and presence.
Youre the one that the little children are
always drawn to, because they know youll never
let anything hurt them.
Your element: Clairvoyance (The power to
see objects or events that cannot be perceived
by the normal five senses.)
A quote that applies to you: "True
beauty shines from the soul and warms the world
with its kindness, compassion , and
integrity."
What's your inner power? (Girls only sorry. Beautiful anime pictures, lengthy results)
