I listen to different music. Learned: never listen to Horrorcore hip hop before napping if extremely tired. Had the most horrible dreams!

Tell BP: Stop burning endangered sea turtles alive. Take action: http://bit.ly/aFrbdv @CREDOmobile pls RT

Hope I hear my alarm--I'm going to take a nap before work. I am exhausted--have been very busy up till now, running like crazy everywhere.

I'm well past puberty so it's especially annoying when I get a big, nasty zit. Luckily it's on my neck where I can hide it with my hair.

It is the summer solstice. Many Pagan folk will be dancing sky-clad. I think the deities would prefer me to keep my fat ass under wraps.

Am I the only one who hates when people use "rock" to describe apparel, hairstyles or items, i.e. "gonna rock my new jeans, bob, & laptop."

What is it with me of late? I'm hungry all the time! Not a good thing for someone who already needs to lose a pound...or fifty...or more...

Completed my write-up on the history of the Bubonic Plague. Hope to work on my own writing a bit before bed.

Well, time to get serious again and get on the homework. I slept, I procrastinated, can't do that forever.

Stomach growling--eyelids drooping. If I fall asleep now, will I end up consuming my pillow?

Jolly times--a tornado watch. I must say the sky this morning was very odd. Lots of low clouds. Lots of virgas. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virga

Few things feel better than getting out of work clothes except for getting out of work clothes with a day off ahead.

Thoroughly convinced that most if not all programs on "E" are a sign that the human race is quite hopeless and deserves a zombie apocalypse.

Maybe its just me, but wouldn't a house made of Bud Light be the sign of an alcoholic? (Referencing the Bud Light commercial, of course)

If there were a dislike button I would Dislike tinnitus. On second thought, I don't need a button to dislike tinnitus. It's annoying!

Could Changes in Insurance Laws harm Vulnerable Individuals?

Health overhaul to force changes in employer plans http://ping.fm/ssijW
I have numerous comparatively minor health problems, plus I'm well over 30 and I'm overweight. All of these things cause most health insurance companies to deny me. I am glad that I'm able to get health insurance through work, otherwise I wouldn't be able to have any. I know I'm not the only one that is in this boat. Yes, they do deny you health insurance coverage for hypothyroidism and fibromyalgia, folks.

The “racist” Hallmark card


The racist Hallmark card http://ping.fm/hMA9Y
Oh dear--I fear these people have too much time on their hands. A black hole is clearly, to me, a nasty space phenomenon that people and planets would be advised to avoid. By this logic, Verne Troyer ought to be up in arms whenever he sees the term "white dwarf." I have certainly never thought of Jesse Jackson, Michael Jackson, Michael Jordan, or any other African American when seeing the term "black hole" previously.

Dogs are never satisfied. Gave them leftover stew meat which they scarfed down. Gave kibble and water afterwards. They're still whining!

Anti-Catholic Imagery in Music Videos


This is a response to user SuperAmanda, who says:
I'm officially calling a moratorium on Catholic and Christian female performers gone wild. I don't care if your life is one big PVC grudge f*ck against the Vatican and daddy's ministry outside abortion clinics.

Tempest Says: I can relate to your thoughts. I was raised Catholic myself. There is the part of me that thinks "this is terrible, do they really have to do that" when I see this type of imagery. However, there is also the part that understands wanting to use shock to get back at the religion that frightened and shamed so many of us. Particularly with the revelation of numerous victims of pedophilia at the hands of the shaming priests. My cousin was one of these victims.
Personally, I would choose to show my disgust a little more tastefully, however. Not all Catholics are horrid, judgmental people. I have known many who were very kind, and I would not wish to be quite so offensive to them when expressing my dismay at certain aspects of Catholicism.

PANSI Shames Glenn Beck In Front of Entire Netherworld http://ping.fm/OmGml

Hopefully will get back to A Princess of Xiumiqa soon. Too many projects and "real world" stress. Afraid whatever I wrote would be terrible.

I wish that one day when I woke up I'd be able to say "I feel wonderful!" When I wake up, my first thought is usually "Oh hell, not again."

Alien Action Figure


The key is to advertise it as a COLLECTIBLE, not a toy. Sci Fi geeks (my brother and I included) would have been all over this item. At this point I have a PLUSH Chestburster! Its all in the marketing.
