The Ho-Hum Blues


as I sit here on the last day of August, facing a new month, the year of 2009 slowly dwindles to it's final months, I look back at the last year. A marriage, a birth, death, loss both material and financial, political power struggles, insults from government officials, war, fires.... the list is endless. Last year Evy and Char married, I lost my father the very next day, the start of this year, I lose my job and source of income, we loose our house due to foreclosure, I have to postpone my wedding to Lysander, Evy and Char have a child, though she's several months premature, so each day is a struggle to survive for the little one, I'm told daily by Lysander what the politicians who are appointed to see to "our best intrests" are calling us all idiots and basically telling us that we don't know what's good for us.


I am trying to keep my head above water, be optomistic, but it seems that each day, the water keeps rising and the air ceiling keeps decreseing and sometimes undertows drag me down.


Sometimes, like Tony Lewis in the 10th Kingdom, I could be a dog, and not have to worry about everything and anything.

I've included an awesome picture of Hiei, everyone's favorite fire demon from the Anime series Yu Yu Hakuso. Anyone who knows me knows that is it my favorite Anime of all time. I have been rewatching the series on DVD at night while I explore either Second Life as either Daphne Juneberry or Mystic Winterwolf or reading. Lysander, my mother and I have been doing a readathon since June 3rd, I've extended it to 12/31 since we'll be moving sometime in the near future. and I'm surprised that I've missed reading. I used to love to read, but after starting college and dating Zynn, I stopped, save the Harry Potter Series and school releated material. It started up again after I got into Manga, and for awhile, that's all I read. but now after doing this readathon, I've got back into reading and sometimes, I'll be on Secondlife, reading, and watching TV or a DVD.

Job Searches

It seems to me that the old method of job searches is a little on the slow side. The whole process takes FOREVER! My own job searches haven't been very fruitful lately, though admittedly I haven't put forth the effort necessary to get the results I want. I only came to admit this a few days ago. Maybe I need to be more like John Adams?

Has PETA gone too far?

This is the question I pose, after watching a news report on how they protested against McDonald's, with the Unhappy meals, to SCARE children into becoming vegetarians. HOW much of an idiot do you have to be to scare children into thinking the way they do?

Don't get me wrong, I support Animal Rights, and treating them the proper way. But there are some organizations out there, like PETA, that in my opinion take their cause to the extreme and after seeing that report about the Unhappy meals, I thought that PETA just needed to go away.

anyways, just before I was going to go this morning, a headline caught my eye on AOL news, and I had to read it. (Here's the link to the story) My GOD do these people even flipping think? How can they be so offensive to people THEY DON'T EVEN FLIPPING KNOW?

I'm an overweight person, and it's not because, oh my gosh, I had a piece of meat got me that way. AND CHANGING MY DIET TO EATING JUST VEGETABLES, LIKE PETA WANTS, isn't going to make me loose weight. changing the diet to a WELL BALANCE MEAL of MEAT and veggies will do that, meat gives you PROTEIN which helps with BUILDING MUSCLES, which in turn when you excersise, burns fat.... Do they even THINK over there at PETA?

Another hunt down.... More to go

Well I have finished the Black Pearl Hunt, Sci Fi and Fantasie Hunt and Hybrid hunt. I was going to do the Demonology hunt next month, but after receiving a card for the calender of events, I've decided, due to my personal political reasons and beliefs not to participate in the hunt. I don't agree with the organizers views, and rather deal with the conflict or start any, I've withdrawn from the hunt.

There are other hunts out there, and I'll participate in them.

tomorrow I'll post what hunts I want to do

Getting back into the writing swing

well it's been a while since I've done some blogging and since Yahoo has changed things around, I've moved here. hmmm, what shall I talk about today?

well first off I'm worried. worried about alot of things, this year has turned out to be almost as bad as last year. I guess the only good thing was that Evy and Char were expecting a bundle of joy. though it seems that even that doesn't go as expected.

Aug 2, their daughter Naio joined the world. 3 months premature, weighing in at 1 pound 13 oz. I pray everything will be okay with her.
