Testing New Linux Blogger App

Blah blah blah... So, whatcha doin?

Finally some peace and quiet

As of Friday Last-Minute-Man is out of my house. I know the drama is nowhere near done, but I already feel better. This should have been done a long long time ago. It's amazing how much one life-sucking parasite of a useless man can make your home and life a living hell by just being there.

Even the tedious tasks of cleaning (he was a fucking slob who apparently had no problem living in filth) and packing all his things (he pulled his usual Bitch-Baby crap and left with only a small backpack of who knows what) is a pleasure. I'm in no hurry to get his things to him; I just want his shit out of my house.

I apologize in advance if in the next coming months I seem a little bipolar. He still has a way of making me puppy-murder furious even when he isn't around.

So in summary - Whhhhhhhhooooooooooooooooo Hoooooooooooooooooooooo!

My Nookey Nook

The new Nook update has given me the ability to -

Play games: Sudoku and Chess - fun nerd games that I love

Read whole books in store: sure it's only for an hour but still, if the book's that great I can either buy it instantly or just find the physical book and lounge on one of their stinky chairs for the rest of the day.

Improved speed and touch screen behaviour - wheeeee! It finally can just barely keep up with me :)

Web browser - the thing is slow and cumbersome and I can honestly say I will never use it BUT I can say I have it. After all, aren't bragging rights a huge part of the accrural of 'stuff'? :D

Oh and some other stuff that wasn't at all interesting so I completely ignored it and decided to read a free copy of 'Venus in Furs' instead.

Motivation Thru Fear of Embarassment

I figure it would be best to use my overwhelming fear of making an ass of myself in front of others as a motivator instead of a hindrance, so I give you this set of entries which will have a corresponding audio set as soon as I can figure out how to do it. (Hopefully this won't become like the cooking one that sadly had to end because I officially have no oven. I have a stove and a broiler; just no oven...)


November, 2009 - Let the mid-life crisis begin!

It was the nicest looking cheap violin on Overstock. It was good for a start and to see if I actually might follow though on it but it was a cheap POS that would have ended up costing me more to fix it than I -ever- paid for it.




When in doubt, head for the Dummies books. This was the second book I bought but it has helped me more than all of the others. It's just a pain to keep it open to play any of the songs so... (see following photo of the child-friendly books that keep second graders entertained and 30 something wannabes confused)





DVDs, CDs and lots of cute little animals to murder (Mary's little lamb, noisy stingy black sheep, exploding weasels, sensory-challenged rodents). In the past 5 months and the handful of times I've been able to really practice, they've been my only source of instruction.




February 4th, 2010 - My new baby (complete with helpful little note markers, or what I like to call Idiot Strips)








April 25th - I haven't practiced since the end of February. Bye-bye nails. They look so sad and stubby :-(

If I only had a brain...

I'm losing my mind. Seriously. It's as if my body has absorbed as much
stress and bullshit it can contain and has gone into shock.

This is the year of the shite luck. Considering that my luck and life
have pretty much sucked for a very, very long time, this is a scary
concept.

A "normal"/reasonably sane person doesn't sit around contemplating how
much easier her life would be if she just let herself go completely
fucking apeshit nuts, right? Then again, all the fucked up people I
know have it pretty damn easy. Someone takes care of them and they
rarely have to do anything for themselves. They can mooch off others
or the government and not contribute or make sense or pretend like
they enjoy dealing with anyone and everything.

Then again, how sad is it that that's a suitable existence? I think
I'd rather be unhappy then a parasite.

All the fun of planting onions and corpses with none of the smell!

What the hell is wrong with me?

I checked the evil calorie counter BEFORE eating lunch. :( What a way to ruin the afternoon.
