Have you ever read the news, shook your head and just thought: DAMN!

Or better yet, imagine this: You're married with 4 kids. Your husband goes to work one day at the World Trade Center and never comes home. Afterwards, you find out that the cad was having an affair, and the bitch he was having the affair with is pregnant. You're a good person who doesn't believe that children should suffer for their parent's mistakes, so after a DNA test proves that the child is indeed your husband's you decide to put the child in for death benefits...which amount to about, oh....145,000 dollars per child, including the one born of the "union."

I guess no good deed goes unpunished, eh?

My god, you would have to be a complete and utter BITCH to even do something like this in my opinion. Be glad your child was acknowledged AT ALL, and move on with your life instead of using a horrible event as your own personal payday. If this witch does win this case, if I were the wife, I would make sure that the money was put in a trust fund that cannot be touched by ANYONE until he hit age 18 or 21.

*sings to the tune of "But the Cat Came Back"*

but the ants came back
oh, the ants came back
and the ants came back
the very next day....

My nasty creepy friends (you know, the ones I spoke of in interesting entries such as "Help! I'm living in an ant-farm!") are back. Not as many, but they are back. And to make matters worse, apparently there's something wrong with the sewer lines in the basement because they are completely backed the fuck up. So now, every time I go in the kitchen, I get to smell scent wafting up my nose..a delicate and aromatic bouquet of...ummm...SHIT. Literally. It REEKS of sewage. I feel really, really sorry for the guy living in the basement apartment...they had to bust open the pipes right in front of his walkway, and if I can smell it in my kitchen on the second floor, he's probably inhaling it, the poor man. They're trying to fix the problem by rooting out the pipes, installing new ones and other things but the smell is horrible.

No amount of money will make me stay here another year. I can't wait until the end of June.

*dances around*

In case you don't know, this is the day that you should bow down and kiss the ass of the woman who begat you, because without her, you wouldn't be here! Or kiss the ass of the woman who raised you, whether it be your stepmother, an aunt, or your grandmother. If they raised you as their own, you should treat them as such. So get on your knees and assume the position....or at the very least, call them and tell them how much you love them.

I'd also like to take today to wish you, you, and you a Happy Mother's day. May this day bestow upon you love, pampering, and joy!

All kidding aside, every day should be mother's day, and it really shouldn't take a special day for you to tell your mom how much you love her and appreciate everything she does. But since we doooo have this special day, please note the following for next year:

1. We can tell when you stopped at Walgreens because you realized too late that Mother's day is in fact, today. Please plan better next year.

2. For husbands: The best gift you can give your harried wide of three kids and ten years is a spa certificate. With the works. At a hotel. For a whole weekend. Away from you, the kids, and everyone else, because the one thing that moms don't get is a lot of "me" time. Please give it to her. She'll come back refreshed, perky and happy!

2. For kids: We like whatever you bring us, especially the things you make. We treasure those. For those who are teens and want to buy something well, pay attention to what your mom does for a hobby, or things she really likes. In other words, if she reads mystery novels all the time and a plant in the house is the equilavent of a death sentence for it, please bring her a book she will enjoy, and not the plant. Or you can get off your ass and clean the house, including your bedroom. She will thank you.

3. We always appreciate the "dinner at the restaurant" deal. Just don't wait until the last minute, because a lot of restaurants are booked on this day. Make a reservation.

What NOT to get her: Plants (unless she loves them), anything that has to do with the kitchen or cooking. Or cleaning, for that matter ( I know someone who got an IRON for M day 3 years ago. And yes, she is still pissed at hobby. Granted, it was a top-of-the-line iron that did everythig except fold the clothes and palce them in your closet, but STILL! X_X). Anything that smacks of a cliche should also be avoided. You know your wife, girlfriend, mother, grandmother. You know what they like. Get them something you know they will like and enjoy, not what some magazine, movie, or book tells you to get!

And always remember, no matter what you get us, it's nothing compared to the joy, laughs, at times aggravation, and above all love that you children give us the rest of the year, and the rest of our lives. Thank you.

Oh yeah....knew there was something else I meant to say....

This pisses me the hell off

I would write this off as being a paticularly cruel April Fools joke except 1) April is over and b) they also put this new date on their official site as well. So I suppose they think that trickling out info over the next 2 YEARS and giving false dates and release info is funny. Either that, or they discovered a whole lot of bugs in the game that need to be fixed, or certain parts bombed with their testers. Of even the fact that they have a few other games comoing out this year and they want to "spread them out." -_-Whatever the motive, it sure sucks for us. And even more for people in Europe and Australia...they won't be seeing FFXII until 2006!

165 lighning bolts before I was struck. Damn that beer I had before I tried to play the lightning dodge game in FFX.

And no, I didn't catch the damn blue butterflies in Macalania either. But I tried.

Beer+paying FFX minigames="No Venus Sigil for you! No Saturn Sigil for you either! Next!"

Hmmm, it don't mean a thing...unless it's got the bling! This is what happens when you use ganguros as muses....Actually, this one I would like to see, but too bad it's in San Fran. :/

Update: Found some pics from the exhibit here.

No, the ants haven't eaten me yet, just really busy. And that stupid worm got into my ISPs servers, so the end result was no internet for about 5 days.

Do you know what I'm really tired of? I'm tired of MCI phoning my house. About a bill that is totally wrong. They say I owe about a hundred, I say it's more like $55, considering how I only made about 4 long-distance calls using them. At night. When the rates are low. So seeing how they like to play games with my bills (not to mention hardly EVER getting my name right), I'm playing games about answering my phone. Behold the following:

MCI: Hello, can I speak to a...um...Mr.[unmentionable]?
Me: There's no MR. here!
MCI: No...wait!
Me: *click*

MCI: Hello, can we speak to....MeeeShayla-
Me: No one here by that name. *click*

MCI: Hello can I speak to-
Me: *imitating lil ole lady/Slingblade: Ummm..hmmm...I know why you called.
MCI: Yes! We are calling about your-
Me: You ever eat taters picked by the light of a spring moon?
MCI: WHAT?
Me; I said....have you ever ate potatoes picked by the light of a spring moon? They be delicious! All smothered in goat cheese n' butter....ummmhmmm....
MCI: Uh....that's nice Ma'am...well, My name is Louise, and I'm-
Me: Mary Lou! It's sho-nice to hear from ya! Your cousin Pee-Wee still have that goiter? I tole that boy to put some liver on it! It'll shrink that thang in no time flat! Ummmhmmm! Praise God!
MCI: *sounding like they are trying to keep from laughing* No, My name is Louise! I'm calling from MCI, and I'm calling about an overdue bill....
Me: Mah pills! Oh, I sho thank ya, Mary Lou! My pressure's been rising, and I have to take them pressure pills to bring it down! Lemmee take my pill and go simmer down. Ummmhmmmm! It's been nice to hear from ya, and don't forget to tell Pee Wee to put some liver on that thang! Lordy, last time I saw him, that thang was durn near dragging the ground! Look just like a turkey comb! G'night! *click*

MCI: Hello, can I speak to-
Me: Moshi-moshi!
MCI: Umm...hello...
Me: Moshi moshi!
MCI: Ummm...
Me:*nastily* Moshi moshi! Moshi moshi! KOOOONNNNEEEECHHHHIIIIIIWWWWAAAAA!!!
MCI: Umm...we'll call back later.*click*

Now, I know, I know I should just talk to them again and get the whole thing straightened out eventually. But right now, I'm having too much fun.

Lurks:
Lumi,
Actionscripting.org,
IRC channels of friends.
Applause: Lots of things, but being yourself no matter what, good design, anime, good books, videogames, foreign films, relaxing, and water are at the top. Now for those of you who find this list boring, bear in mind I could have said I liked sunrises and walks on the beach.
Tomatoes: Too many to mention, but arrogance, judgemental people and those who just don't give a damn rate high on the list. Have you noticed how some can dish it out, but get pissed off if someone treated them the same way they treat others?
Layout whorage bought to you by: Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust. I LOVED this movie, so much better than the first one IMO. This is partly a screencap of the beginning of the DVD mixed in with some menacing trees and other refinements. Ah, the miracle and wonders of Photoshop, but anyways, I figured that it would be fitting, since an archive is a graveyard of sorts.
