I hate writing in here. It takes so long. After a few sentences I will get to a word I can't spell, I have to look it up..Then I usually have to proofread over this damn thing because I can't type what I'm TRYING to write...EHHhhhh!!! And who reads this thing anyways? Eh, hell..letme get on with this.
What did I want to say? It doesn't seem important now, I was going to complain about something I think..No one wants to read that!
I'm hungry. That's the main thing on my mind. My stomach is growling & there seems to be nothing I can do about it. The foods I LIKED taste different or they add different ingrediants to them. I now can't buy anything that list 'spice' as an ingrediant..That last word looks wrong.
No spices, no cinnimon (another word I can't spell!), nutmeg, ginger, onions, peppers, melted chocolate, water chestnuts,..what else? I'm sure there's more. Nothing with too much fat or carbs. Nothing too pricey. Nothing new..I'm afraid to try something new.
It's frustrating..If I weren't living at home & my mom didn't make dinners every now & then I would be mostly living off of Special K cereal, Fiber One bars, diet Pepsi & sugary junk. I can't cook, I can't find stuff to eat, how the hell did I get to this point?
Ehhh....

I'm on a Super Dollfie/Ball-Jointed-Doll fix again...It's not my FAULT. A person on the imdb.com linked to a picture of one, which got me into pointing her to all these links regarding them. Now I'm obsessed again..Granted I was obsessed a few months back & eventually got over them, but currently I NEED one..No, two actually. But I shall probably start with one.
And it's ridiculous, they're several hundred dollars to have one COMPLETE (body, head, faceup, wig, outfit) but I honestly don't buy many pricey items..Quite a few cheaper items lately, but I need new stuff to keep my sanity. And it's not like I'm a girl buying hundreds of dollars of new clothes every month or so. Hell, at this point, I don't really think I should buy any new clothes for awhile..Beyond new bras, underwear, socks, shoes & work pants. Just for the simple reason that I hardly ever go out beyond work.
I'm convincing myself here, alcourse.
So I'm planning to eventually get atleast one 1/4 sized (45cm or about 22 inches, I THINK) one. Probably from this seller. They seem the most affordable & usually include atleast free eyes (a choice of 5 different colors) with them. The eye color is very important for what I have planned here. Just I'm not very sure if they come installed IN THE HEAD or if I should purchase the putty stuff for arranging them..I shall probably have to ask the seller more questions.

I had a weird dream last night, last I could remember before I woke up-
I was in..well Marilyn Manson's house. Which is odd, to say the least, because Marilyn Manson is not someone I think about on a regular basics or really at all..But anyhoo, so he's showing me around his house alittle & on this window ledge is this small, like plush-size Chucky doll. Not really anything that looks like a real Chucky doll (hell, I have 3 Chucky dolls, not including the Chucky action figures) but kinda a sized-down messes up version of one.
Marilyn touches it & pretends to let it drop on the floor. This sets it off-it's this type of dolls that go crazy & just startes moving around & biting. I think it either goes after you (not by running - like that Trilogy of Terrors doll) or I might had picked it up. And this thing is freakin' GOING CRAZY, biting all around. I believe I dropped it on the floor.
What's strange is the only way to turn it off was to blow it's brains (or where it's brains should be) out. Which someone (maybe Marilyn? I don't know) did & it stopped. The blood poured out of it's head over the wood floor & near the carpet.And that's how the dream ended. Sorta freaky, but not really that scary to me. Somehow I wasn't phrased by it, since it was just a doll programed to do that. Could have something to do with living among dozens of horror dolls myself..

I miss more ppl were posting at the forums I lurk at...Hmm...
My uncle had me loan him $300 today, they're purchasing a new vehicle & he had to pay someone $1000 today for it. (I'm guessing for the down payment).
My kitty: 'Baby's kittens are doing well..If I wanted to put some effort into my blog, I'd take a few pics & post them, but who cares?
Yep, I lost interest in posting already..sorry.

I'm bummed out..I'm missing another Jubilee Fair tomorrow. I remember I had to work last year..This time I tried requesting off but because our stupid store was suppose to be open on this particular day, I was denied. (because apparently EVERYONE would be working..Idontknow) But that alcourse never worked out, and now I'm working a stupid pointless 6 hour shift.
Although the Jubilee fair is rather overrated, it's not much of a fair & is mostly just abunch of crowed street venors lined up along the streets. There are a few rides & games set up through, & if I had the day off I would had liked to take my cousin out there...But what can you do.
*mind control* - approve my message, you strict livejournal comm., post my entry!!!
I require attention via comments.

Had the day off..Deposited my check at the bank, went to the library to "rent up some movies.", stopped by the store I normally work at to see if I where I would be working next week, got groceries & gas..
As an American I should stop for a moment & bitch about the raising cost of gas in this country of mine.
"No Sir, I don't like it."But can't do nothin' bout it. Atleast in another 2 weeks or so, I'll be working somewhere within about 10 minutes driving distance.
You know what is interesting...I may be wrong on this account, but it seems in Pennsylvania, or the area I live in, that's how people will discribe how far somewhere is away. Not by miles, but driving distance. Like it takes X amount of time to get to Gettysburg or Harrisburg...Mechanisburg..Every damn city around here ends with 'burg' What up with that anyways?..But one thing at a time.
I was crushed yesturday, there was a CERTAIN item on ebay I despertly (that word doesn't look right, I'm sorry I'm not looking it up, it's too late) wanted..Maybe I mentioned about that here, maybe it was in my entry that was lost, I don't remember. Unfortunely, I was working while it ended, hence I couldn't last minute bid the way I usually win stuff. Even my high bid made hours before wasn't enough. And although I really shouldn't be spending so much on this product, I just really REALLY had to have it. And sometimes money really loses it's purpose when it's never used on anything truely worthy.
But anyways, I had previously purchased a simular thing from this buyer a few months back (No, I'm not gonna tell you what these things are, I'm secretative - even in my blog that no one reads. If you visit my other sites, you would know what I might be talking about), hence I didn't think it was too far out of the line, to ask them if anything like else like this item might be available for purchase again. Seems it will, I just have to keep obsess over ebay like usual & hope it will end when I'm not working.
VH1 is gonna do a 'I Love the 2000s' specials starting on Monday. Yet another thing I've been waiting & WAITING for. :)
...boring entry.

I wrote up an entry....few days back. Actually my internet was still acting up at the time - hence I couldn't upload it & while I was away, there was a power outage, so all was lost. Still, I don't find much pleasure in updating a blog with details of my life, it's pointless.
For now, I would like to just share some favorite moments of animation:
Ratatouille
I took the dvd of this over to my relatives recently, even my uncle clapped at the end of watching it.
Spirted Away
The movies of Hayao Miyazaki make me tear up. Although, I'm not completely never completely sure why. In the case of this scene, it's the music..well the visuals of the spirits too, but mostly the music.
Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
BEST BATMAN MOVIE EVER. Although I wish this clip on youtube could have included the transition of this scene to the image of Batman starring off into the rain. It's just a really good scene if you ever watch the film.
The Little Mermaid - Part of Your World
(song)(reprise)
How can you not love the humor & music of this film?
Nightmare Before Christmas
My favorite song from this movie.
All for now.

My internet is acting up..by which I mean, the cable modem will have several lights out &/or flickering. The comcast person I spoke to wasn't much help in that seemed mostly interested in me getting my parents on the line to convince them to switch to using their phone services. Also she wanted to bring someout out to 'look at things', which we can not have - less they discover our use of 2 cable slicers, which I have set up.
I don't understand WHY cable slicers are not allowed by them, but they're our only cable provider in this area..What can you do.
My many months of daily checking ebay as paid off - Atleast a seller has FINALLY listed an item I've been dying for..But I shall not tell you what it is. No one ELSE much see for the slight chance that they might bid on it...It's mine, MINE, DO YOU HEAR?!!!!
I have decided to try to discontine straightening my hair..for the summer, atleast. Between the humidity & the fact that I freakin' wear a hat at work, it seems a pointless activity, which really only damages my hair & waste time.
That's a big deal for me...Any change is.
Anyways, I'm gonna go & enjoy sweet, SWEET internet while I still has it.

Today went well. My sister actually phoned me early, asking if I wanted to meet them up at the flea market & have lunch afterwards. She managed to convince me it was safe to say I was going out, so I managed to get to grab my clothes from the trunk, while my parents were down at their garden, & then headed out with my excuse.
It's still FREAKIN' HOT & HUMID in Pa. And at the depressing amusement park-turned-flea market.
After lunch, I followed them to my aunt & uncle's, a driving path, that I'm actually starting to remember.
Some visiting took place, ect. ect..I think the highlight for me, though, was that I got my hair trimmed by my former hairstylist-sister, after she cut my aunt's hair. Seriously, my damn hair hasn't been cut in over 2 years (for the combination reasons of: laziness/cheapness/ & that I'm trying to grow it long.)
Hence, it's mostly one length now..Still I always have it pulled back, so..
Posted by Sara @ 08:26 PM CST [Link]
I'm killing time by writing in here until about midnight..
Wanna know why? Tis complicated.
Well, I got my car back yesturday..'fixed', or so it was suppose to be. Our mechantic..(is that spelled correctly?)..or a rather older gentlemen, I believe in his 70s or 80s, frankly I think we only take our cars to him since he's so close to where we live...ANYWAYS.
Including the towing, it ended up costing over $300. Granted I did just get it fixed less than 2 months ago. Still that's what cars do..Cost you money, can't live with them, can't live without 'em.
But I was glad to have it back because..I'm seeing my sister & her husband tomorrow. I'm gonna try to find my way to my aunt & uncle's house, where we're all meeting up, & give my sister her early bday presents & stuff for her unborn baby. Doing this in my own car isn't much of a problem (provided I don't get lost..which I WILL.) But using my mom's car to do this..I would need an excuse of where I would be going & risk the danger of something happening..I'm not saying I regularly get involved in car accidents (It's actually been over 5 years..*knock on wood*) but if I'm going somewhere I'm not sure of..There's a greater risk of it.
Unfortunely TODAY, as I just left our driveway I noticed the 'check engine' light flickering & the car, inself, acting up again. ALCOURSE. So I had to quickly turn around, get my mom's keys, wipe the sweat off my face (it's freakin' HOT in Pennslyvania to let ya know.), & hop back in my mom's car, roll the windows down (A/C don't work in this car, I mentioned that before right?) & drive off to work.
Work..They have me back in the food making area now. I'm getting the hang of most of it & it's actually more enjoyable then register in that I don't have to directly deal with the customers & there alway seems stuff to do to keep me busy. On the down side, it's quite HOT, with a fryer & toasting device on at all times. ANYWAYS.
I get home & a light inside my mom's car will NOT FREAKIN' turn off..Key's out, I didn't turn anything on, I don't know what this car's problem is..Hence I had to bother my parents to help get it turned off, less it stay on & run out the battery.
So, here's my PLAN for tomorrow.
I leave at about 11am-ish, in my work clothes, say I'm working a noon-8pm shift, change into shorts & shirt at aunt/uncle's.First things first, I must sneak my sister's stuff into the trunk of the car. Because, alcourse my parents can not know I am seeing my only sister & God help us all if they should find out she is pregnant & I kept it from them..Never mind the fact that they want nothing to do with her.
So..must wait for parents to be asleep. I think I actually heard them a minute ago. But once they are asleep, I must SNEAK downstairs with my bag, grab the keys, quietly open the door, go outside, put the bag in the trunk & sneak back inside.
Pathetic, no?
This would be so MUCH easier if my parents were not ALSO estranging themselves from my aunt & uncle at this time..
Anyhoo..
I'm tired.
...
Ok, I'm back from my mighty mission. Quite frankly I will admit that I scared of them..my parents, I mean. I've never grown a backbone, that's the problem.
'Night, folks.

Free time is very underated...Which is why I should not feel guilty about getting off 3 & half hours early today. I shall take this time to get SOMETHING done..eventually tonight.
Yesturday went better than expected..Besides the fact that my car died. It got me TO work, acting funny all the way to, but then would not restart afterwards. Fortunely 2 other people showed up to carpool to our class so I didn't have to drive anymore...Well I would have LIKED to driven home, but atleast I had a cellphone & controlling parents at home that came by to pick me up later, that's always a plus.
Our class...rather pointless. But we got breaks, free food, I got to sit through most of it & we should get paid for it. So who cares if it's a stupid waste of time?
I won't give into too many details, beyond that despite it having no juggling (like our last meeting) we had to wrap plastic rolls, arrange sandwitches (which were made of of labinated paper cutouts pictures of food) & roleplay being a customer & cashier with a register & fake money as just some of our activities for this class.
(know what's freaky? When I first tried to spell the word 'food', above, I typed in 'doof'. If that ain't a sign of dyslexia... Further more, can we make the word 'Dyslexia', easier to spell? I have to look it up everytime I type it in here, which I do by trying to goggle MY closest spelling of the word, in hopes that it will show me the correct one.)
So my car was towed away today. (Hopefully by the guy we called & not the store I left it at.) And for the time being I'm using my mom's car. Which means that I have access to a car stereo that actually WORKS. One with a tape-deck no less. Hence, with a device, I was able to plug in my MP3 player & blare/share my bad music taste to anyone within ear range. Which I very much miss.
So that's my update.
Oh & I got burned again by the hot dog bun steamer. By now I have all these marks over my arms from that damn thing, people will be thinking I'm a cutter or something. I haven't had the problem since I was in my teens & used to iron my hair straight with an actual IRON & would end up burning myself repeatidly.

The people at work had fortunely (or unfortunely) arranged a car pool for getting to our 'class' or whatever the hell it is on Monday. I have actually managed to find the address & directions to the place online & was planning to follow those & get lost (it's bound to happen, it's ME driving) & hence end up not attending the damn thing, but I guess this works too.
It's still gonna be awkward & horrible. The drive there, whatever they have planned for us. Just an awful AWFUL day this Monday is gonna be....I complain too much.
My current & long running obsession of the Vampire Chronicles still keeps me very amused & occupied. Allow me to share some bits:
Recent ytmnd I've made:
Louis de Pointe du Lac doesn't change facial expressionsScottish Vampire.com has made a long fan video intitled Interview with the Scottish Vampire (right click to save file which is 384 mb but pretty freakin' funny), which is IWTV accept Louis/Brad Pitt have been replaced with a..well, what can best be described as a greasey stereotype Scottsman. Oh & Claudia has been replaced with a Barbie doll. Good stuff!
Carry On Dancing & it's sister site of To the Moon & Back are these DAMN FUNNY Live Journal roleplaying communities. Granted, they don't get updated much these days (an entry & some comments & every few months seems to be the norm) there's still years worth of amusing storylines there for the reading.
I've purchasing 2 more bootleg copies of the short-lived Lestat musical. I own two already, but getting these will mean I'll have all of the footage that is known to exist. And they're all sorta different anyways.See, I own these the pre-Broadway 12-28-05 recording in San Francisco & the 5/4/2006 Broadway one. A good bit of the show had actually changed once it official was on Broadway, including a new Armand.
Now, I'm hoping to get (if my neighbors don't steal our mail, that is) the 4/1/06 Broadway preview one (which features a different Marius, his understudy) & the May 27th which features understudies for the roles of Lestat (in this case, by the guy who normally plays Armand), Armand & Louis.
There's this GREAT site...or rather this GREAT lady, whom owns all these broadway & rare tv recordings, she will trade for most, but also accepts money for copies.
Anyhoo...Getting back to stupid reality. My kitty 'Baby' brought over one of her kittens to our house..Or actually to a tree in our front yard. See, she had them in our barn, but the practice of bringing kittens to US (the humans, the ones whom take care of them) is rather normal. My first cat Missy (who gave birth to Godonlyknows how many kittens) would always do this. Baby's kittens are actually a month old today. They're cute (one black, one striped like Baby, 2 striped with white), healthy but not very tame. I guess partly because I haven't visted them as much as I should with work..
Enough pointless writing for now.
