I made this

So the picture to your right… yeah, I made, and ruined that last night in networking class. We had to make cables, our first hands-on dealy-bop, and that was my screwed up attempt. Doesn’t look so bad here, but if you know what you’re doing, you can see the cables are too short on the inside. Then I never got to do anymore because it got too late and my teacher and Steve each did another end of my wire and wouldn’t let me do it. :-P Yeah, we drug Steve in there because it was late, we didn’t leave until 9:50 (class is supposed to get out at 9:10). I have to go back early next week to try again with my wire before class.
I am now unlike any other female I know… carrying copper wire in my purse. :lol:
And now I have to take test 3 from home, on the internet because we’re getting behind (I KNEW IT) and this is going to suck, royally, I’m not ready…

Yesterday was SUCH a NICE DAY!! The weather is RIGHT where I want it to stay for ever and ever amen. Continue reading ‘I made this’

Down River

To welcome you to my 400th post, here are some pics from the float trip, August 14. Believe it or not, this was one of those one time use waterproof cameras! These turned out better than any others I’ve ever had with one of those. The last time we went on a float trip, actually, the stupid thing leaked and it had fog inside, hardly any of the pictures turned out. So I’m pretty excited about these. ;-)
Anyway, see here for the original post about the float trip.

Yeah, they suck

Well, I’m back from being blocked from my own site. Stupid people. Sheesh! But thanks again, Amber!!
To celebrate, I created a new style, hehe. It’s Stumped, but it’s for 1024×768 only. Sorry ;-)

I’m in class currently, waiting for it to start, have about 10 minutes still I guess…. There’s lots that I should have been posting about these past few weeks, but most is…. er… saved in drafts. :-D Maybe I’ll get to that soon.

Well, this is actually what I was going to post last Wednesday night, but never hit “Publish,” my bad!! Continue reading ‘Yeah, they suck’

Spoken-For: The best site on the net for…

Porn?!

Howdy, folks. This is Amber (from AmberNixon.Net) and I am posting on behalf of Val since her ISP is now blocking her site because it’s classified as “Pornography, Entertainment/Recreation”.

There is a filtering system gone haywire, which is now blocking her whole server, and she’s working to get it resolved as soon as possible. So - hold tight, she’ll be right back…

Gypsy Rose Lee

Since Thursday, I have been reading this book, Gypsy (a memoir) by Gypsy Rose Lee. Her real name was Rose Louise Hovick. Actually, I’m almost halfway through it.
You may remember when I went to the play portraying this book, about this woman’s life. She basically became the most well-known/publicized stripper of the world, later appearing in movies and writing books and screenplays.

“I wasn’t naked. I was completely covered by a blue spotlight.”

believe it or not…

…but I haven’t been spending as much time on here as I usually do this past week. I know that’s hard to believe considering the amount of entries in this thing, but it’s true. (Also note that like the last 10 posts weren’t even posted by me ;-)).
Anyway, in between fighting Steve for the computer sessions (yes, he’s found a game on Yahoo that he’s now obsessed with!!) and school and Elijah, I’ve managed to be able to do some things to this site & such…

1. New photos accepted to Stock Exchange: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.

2. By popular request, a page about the layouts on this site: here

3. New question answered:
x Are you going to vote for George Bush?
Hey, are you the one that keeps calling here and asking me that very same question? Lol, just kidding. Well, there are people I’d rather vote for (like myself, heehee), but they’re so small time I know they’ll never win and I believe GB to be better than Kerry. So, yes, that’s my plan.

4. Have a new review to post and will do it soon.

5. I forgot what else. ;-)

More later…

questions answered

Wow, people actually asked me some questions. ;-)
To view the Q&A, go to the girl section, it’s at the bottom….
Or… Continue reading ‘questions answered’

the first day of fall

And here we are, though September is quickly coming to a close, Fall has just officially begun.

And to say goodbye to summer and hello to one of my favorite seasons, I thought I’d post a few pictures.
And, of course, since Elijah is the most photogenic :lol: the photos are of him.
