Zoo pictures

I mentioned in the audio post below that I had pictures of the bears in a compromising position. Here are the pictures. The Tulsa zoo is home to many amorous animals. I can honestly say that the last several times I've been there, one pair of animals or another has been getting it on.

Zoo Adventures

I have pictures. I'll post them as soon as I get a chance.

My archives are so pissing me off. I don't like the way it looks. I've spent hours today trying to fix it to no avail. Stupid blogger. Stupid html. Stupid internet. I hate it all right now!

Check out my new renter

This is pretty close to what the huge moth from last night looked like. Amazing, isn't it?

I have a new renter, he's a young British dude. He has an interesting take on some current issues hounding Americans. You should give him a little click. You know you want to.

I talked to my library class instructor today. She told me as long as I take the final, I'll get an A in the class. I saved my 4.0, and I didn't even have to apply myself. I need to go to a different school. This one doesn't have very high expectations for it's students. I haven't been really challenged by a single class I've taken here, but what should I expect from a community college, really?

My whole body hurts

On Friday, I planted tomatoes, and tore up the carpet in my living room. On Saturday, I pulled up the tack strips from the carpet and sanded the floors. I didn't get to bed until 4:30! Yesterday, after working 8 hours, I finished the sanding and stained the floors. On top of that I have to work until midnight today and tomorrow, and I have to take my final for the library class by midnight on Wednesday. I went home on my lunch hour today, and mom decided she was going to put another coat of stain on. Yeah, she totally did it wrong. She didn't wipe it down, she just painted it on and left it. She also moved the entertainment center back into the living room and stained AROUND it. AND, she left a "path" from the hallway to the kitchen! Now there are 2 big areas that don't match the rest of the floor, that looked not so great to begin with. My life would be a lot easier if she would just tell me what to do and let me do it. She doesn't NEED to get in on the action. She's going to do it wrong anyway, and I'm going to have to fix it. It just means more work for me. So, that's why my whole body hurts.

Oh, yeah, I saw a moth the size of my hand. I was amazed. It was ginormous! I made everybody go look at it.

I may not be back for a couple of days, I have to study. Have a nice day!

Monty popped my cherry!

On Friday, Monty became the first person I met on the internet that I've met in real life. We went to lunch at El Chico's. I get very nervous about meeting new people, so I was freaking out a little, but it was great! We talked for 2 solid hours. It was so much fun. Thanks Monty, you rock!

Also, I have a new renter, Idol Blog Live. Apparently he blogs about Idol while watching Idol. That's good, because then his mom won't make fun of him for taking notes during Idol.

Have a nice day!

A Knitting Group?

I want to start a knitting group in Midwest City. Probably on Saturday afternoons. If you are in the Midwest City area and knit, or know someone who knits, please email me, or have them email me. Please.

You gotta love the crazies...

...if only for their entertainment value. I have a profile posted on an internet dating site. Occasionally, guys will email me, but it never amounts to anything more than a little chit chat. There are some occasions that you do get a crazy though. Well, needless to say, I got a crazy. The first time crazy emailed me, on February 12, this is what he said:

saw your profile and i actually gazed at your pic for a very long time saying could this be the one have been wanting to meet all my life?baby you are an angel,and that is why i am using taking my time to let you know that you are been felt by me,can i get to know you better?kisses from me david.

I responded, on February 15, in what I thought was a very sarcastic way with:

That's really sweet and all, but you're half a country away. How do you see that working?

Notice my response, though sarcastic, was properly capitalized and punctuated. Apparently he didn't realize I was being sarcastic, and didn't take the capitalization and punctuation hint, because today I received this:

hello pretty,
sorry i've been offline in a while it's due to the nature of my job but i guess am a little free for now,have been thinking about you lately and really love to know a bit about you if thats ok with you?i guess i havent felt this way in a long time and i must confess i think am inlove with someone i donot know,but one thing i do believe and that is destiny i guess that's what made me find you here,pls do reply soon as i will be coming back to the states in about a month from now,kisses yours david.

Seriously? He thinks he's in love with me? After that? Okay, my profile (there) SAYS that I'm a Mensan, so apparently he doesn't know what that means if he thinks I'm dumb enough to fall for that shit.

Oh well, it's fun for us to laugh at.

I had a fabulous weekend

I had a great time at the lake. There were a couple of firsts. I slept in a tent for the first time. I kayaked for the first time (more on that later). I was up until like 4:00am every night. My friend Michael was there. I always have loads of fun with him. Michael, Karissa, and I killed a fairly large bottle of vodka by ourselves Friday night. After all the grown ups and small children went to bed, we went to the playground (our camp site was right across the street) and swang/swinged? and went down the slide and played on the merry go round. After Karissa went to bed, around 3:30, Michael and I went and stood with our feet in the lake. Sean and Jonah came out on Saturday, and again after the grown ups went to bed there was more drinking. We only drank beer on Saturday night, but I felt way worse Sunday morning than I did on Saturday morning after the vodka. Anyway, it was the first time I had partied with Jonah and my cousin "Bubba". He's 18 now, so we figured it was okay to give him beer.
(Bubba on the left, Jonah on the right)
I think they had just as much fun as I did. Again we went swinging at 2:00am. Bubba climbed on top of the swingset structure. Drunk. But we didn't think about how bad of an idea that was until the next morning.

I didn't file my taxes or finish my paper until late Monday night.

Thank God my head's attached...

...because if it weren't, I'd lose it.

Today is April 13. Taxes are due April 15. I can't find my W-2. I'm such an idiot. I should have just filed my taxes at the end of January when I got my W-2 so this wouldn't happen.

Add to that the paper I have to write for my library class that's due on the 17th, and Easter weekend too. I may have a bit of a meltdown this weekend. I was discussing my paper with one of the librarians, and she said my research was good, I just had to organize my thoughts, so that's half the battle. The problem is that every time I've had a free second to do that, I've been playing games, or working on my template, or writing this very post. Oh well.

I dropped my history class today. It was a telecourse that I was supposed to watch videos and read the text for. I put off buying the book until it was pretty much too late, so I just added another W to my transcript. I have more W's than actual grades on my transcript. But, the grades I do have are A's. Until I finish my library class.

I took the library class, Intro to Library Technical Assistant, so I could get an easy A. Hell, my title is Library Technical Assistant. The highest grade I can get at this point is a B. I don't know if I'll even be able to pull that out. It's totally my fault. It's not like the material is to hard, or anything like that. I'm just a slacker. I took zeroes on 2, maybe 3 assignments worth 10 points each just because I didn't feel like doing them.

Anyway, for Easter, most of my family, including my mother and I are going camping at the lake. I've checked out a laptop so I can write my paper there. We'll see if it actually gets done.

BTW, I totally won the battle in the war of the strong willed women.

Have a nice day. Happy Easter!

I almost forgot, don't forget to visit my new renter, The Daily Dildo. I picked her because her blog is well written.

Hell, who am I trying to kid. I picked her because it sounds dirty! Can I get a whoo whoo!

Seriously, her blog REALLY is well written. Go visit her.
