ThisNext find 1.24

I found this through ThisNext I'm not sure how true it is of my blog, but...hehe. So I checked out the site where it came from, Despair,Inc., and loved so much of it. It's perfect for my inner sarcastic kid. I'm not that far removed from my teen years. :P

So that's lookin' like it'll be my post for the day. I may work on functions, as in math, with my mom later. She was a math major so she understands these things. I can teach myself a lot, but math is NOT one of them. (via hwilson)

'Un' as in 'not'

I'm not very inspired in regards to a post. But I haven't written here in a few days. I check the blog everyday for comments and just to look at it. I really like it, now. But I just can't think of a coherent post topic. I have everything to say, but really it's best left unsaid. I think. So I talk to myself. I'm home pretty much all day so...*sigh*

Er, uh, hmm...sorry I just don't have anything. I've got random made up words running through my brain. 'Iggle' for example. Where they came from I have no idea. I want to watch American Idol but my dad has commandeered the one TV in the house. I'm the only AI fan, and I'm not even really a fan. Meh!

Post Picture: My hand, from my earlier fascination. I like it.

Sing with me

Okay, not really. You don't have to.

Today is Bro2's birthday. He's 15. Eep! The picture is my gift to him, a little bit of handmade goodness. I really like that paper. So colorful. I wanted to get a pic before he tore into it. Traditionally we open birthday gifts around dinnertime. It does tend to promote procrastination. :P

Just don't

I used to read Funky Winkerbean rather rabidly. I cared, probably more than a sane person should, about the characters. Then the artist, Tom Batiuk (rhymes with attic) killed one of the main characters after she lost her battle with cancer. I wrote about that here, too. (Is that a sign of something seriously wrong?)

Anyway, now I just don't care. He then skipped ahead in time 10 years. Not sure how he's pulling that off because he was having current events impact the characters. Unless he's a real Journeyman he won't be able to do that anymore. Readers missed those 10 years and somehow I'm not feeling like he's doing anything to catch us up. It's just a little weak.

Another thing I'm getting past is all the reality/game show TV. I realize this is because of the writer's strike. But really, it's almost painful. Deal or No Deal is on 3 times a week now. Gah!

So I ought to resolve to make a change and use the time I used to spend filling up on TV on more productive things. But I, like most, am not good at following resolutions. I shall simply say I hope to do more and leave it at that.

Glooble-pffft!

No, I haven't lost it. I just can't think of a coherent title. Heh.

I'd love to say I've been working on new things, but I haven't. I'd love to say I've photographed all these supplies I said I was going to list. But I haven't. I'd love to say I've finally found some sort of gainful employment, but as yet, neither I nor the temp agency I 'signed' with, has. I'm stuck sort of. I have things I want to do, but instead...I blog. And think. About how not to think. I'm peculiar.

Little bro's birthday is in 2 days essentially. I'm going to make his gift, part because I'm cheap and part because he asked for something. Of course, he deserves more...he's a great little brother. I just...yeah.





Inspired by Etsyan Lemonade's blog post on reading I trekked up to the library and got that book.

I had read all the other Left Behind book...well, not the preceding three. Anyway, I'm sorely disappointed with this one. Unbelievably disappointed. I'm going to finish it, because I don't like leaving books unfinished. But I-yai-yai! (spl?) I don't recommended. The fact that just as many customer reviews on Amazon gave it 2 stars as gave it 4 should tell you something.
