Flisters who reside in the US, have been to the US, and more importantly, know anything about the states of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.

So, say someone was to take a roadtrip from LA, California to Dallas, TX. And they are taking the I-10.
WHAT WOULD SOME LOVELY SIGHT SEEING PLACES BE? The roadtripper is uh, pretty open to anything. And they will have a gerbil as a roadtrip buddy, who also, is open to anything. Just a lone man and his gerbil, hittin' the long and dusty interstate. Possibly loaded with weed.

HELP.
If it helps, the towns being driven through are Phoenix, Tucson, El Paso, and finally Dallas.

SEA CREATURES!

Fathers Day + Sydney - Darling Harbour + Random )

I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to write this Jared and the Gerbil fic. Jared's now getting high in it, in my head. I'M SO SAD.

Sad and very very very full of food.
6th-Sep-2008 09:22 pm - At least Watchmen will never let me down, right? Right?
Lupin and Tonks come to the rescue, but that is I believe the last we see of them. There is no Tonks and Lupin relationship and although Tonks’ hair is brown there is no notice taken or any explanation given.

6th-Sep-2008 08:40 pm - i has no life (and is proud of it)!

*cough* Nope. I haven't spent the last ... four hours (+ another five, or six hours yesterday) reading the J/I recs at the comm that was recced to me.

Uh guys? You may have noticed it already, I guess I'm just coming to the realisation ... that I need a life.

but seriously what a way to spend it. *le sighs*)
 

I went to the mall today. Here is where I will record my ... adventure. )

I really want to change my moodtheme. Are there any S3 SPN moodthemes floating about?

6th-Sep-2008 10:29 pm - (and for once that icon's not being used because I'm ranting)
Oh, Stephen Sondheim. I really didn't need another reason to love you.

But if you're going to let a certain guy I haven't heard sing since high school sing pretty, hey, I'll take it.

*wants the Assassins soundtrack*

Your picture and song for this Sunday.


Well, that was random! I'll be back later with a slightly less interesting, but longer post. Because I know you love them.

I think this was just another excuse to show off another icon. I LOVE THEM.

You know what I miss? Coffee. I sympathized with Seely Booth on the premiere of Bones because it really is difficult to find a good cup of coffee here and I'm not paying 3 pounds for Starbucks. And I can't even find any coffee makers! This place needs a Target STAT. In fact, I'd like to petition that there should be at least one Target in every country. Also, I can't find splenda packets (just these weird little tablet things) or coffee creamer. I miss my French Vanilla. And my 7-11 coffee. Mmm. Ok, this place needs a 7-11 too. Just take out one of the million McDonalds.

So yeah. I'm not totally sold on this whole drinking tea thing, but I will take my caffeine where I can get it.
6th-Sep-2008 12:08 pm - I Don't Wanna Hurt You, I Wanna Kiss You
Title: I Don't Wanna Hurt You, I Wanna Kiss You
Pairing: Travis McCoy/Brendon Urie, vaguely
Summary: Travis turns into a helicopter. WHAT WILL TURN HIM BACK???
Notes: [info]bluejbird and I were talking about how there should be a story where Travie is a helicopter pilot, and she made the mistake of saying "helicopter Travie" without the pilot. Warning for the maiming of beloved characters and, obviously, dumb things happening that don't make any sense. TITLE COMES FROM A JONAS BROS. SONG.

Mostly just posting to use a shiny new animation icon.
OH THE CHOICES, WHICH ONE TO CHOOSE.

So, I really want a gerbil, or a hamster. Unfortunetly, Australia thinks we might get 'bored' and release them ~into the wild~ and they'll use their prolific breeding powers to take over the country. So they're illegal here.
Of course, we have rats and mice, who also breed like crazy, BUT OMG THATS DIFFERENT.

Regardless, my Dad's pretty set on not letting me have rats again. I even offered to keep them outside, in the freezing cold. It's pretty ridiculous, rats dont smell and they're incredibly smart, and an incredibly clean animal, and cute to boot, but yeah. Definite no. His excuse is that he'll have to look after them when I go away, cause, I go away so often (that was sarcastic). Mum's moving down here soon, she could look after them! I said this, and he goes, she didn't like them! And yeah, when I first got them (after much begging from my mother) she didn't like them but then she grew on them and got attached, and whenever I went to Sydney, she'd be on the phone laughing cause she was playing with them and they're cuteness rubs off so easily.

Annyyway I shouldn't get my hopes up :/ I just miss having little furry friends.
SO MUCH BETTER THAN REAL FRIENDS.

So who wants to write me a fic where Jared buys Jensen a gerbil, roadtrips to Texas to give it to him, and ends up befriending it in the car instead?
YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO.
6th-Sep-2008 02:01 am
I guess the only thing I really have to say is that I'm over it. I'm through. I'm ready for something else. Come on, then.

back to physics!

"If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time."

"Il n'y a rien comme le désir pour empêcher les choses qu'on dit d'avoir aucune ressemblance avec ce qu'on a dans la pensée."
There is nothing like desire for preventing the things one says from bearing any resemblance to what one has in mind.

"
Everything great in the world comes from neurotics. They alone have founded our religions and composed our masterpieces."

"We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take us or spare us."

"Our vanity, our passions, our spirit of imitation, our abstract intelligence, our habits have long been at work, and it is the task of art to undo this work of theirs, making us travel back in the direction from which we have come to the depths where what has really existed lies unknown within us."

all the above quotes are by Marcel Proust.

x. I am on question numero dos for my physics assignment and I'm already lost. (for the record, I got question numero uno right)

x. S-K interviewed me. You know the drill, drop me an 'interview me' if you want five questions.
would you know my name...? )
hey s-k, I finally found a tag for you on this journal. meet 'aehr larothdel', and I'm hoping you get it, although the entire world probably won't. <3
5th-Sep-2008 04:46 pm - goodnight guise.~ even though it's only 5 PM...
Why is it that whenever I write out an entry that's longer than a few paragraphs, somewhow the page skips backward and then I'm left with nothing? I hate that. D :

Small recap. Probably less boring anyways:

I have tomorrrow off. Thank GOD. My ear is really bothering me, I can't hardly hear anything through it. aghhh and a friend asked me if I wanna go hang out tonight. Noooo. I dun wanna do ANYTHING this weekend.

Although, I do need to go clothes shopping (seeing as I have ... none, really) and try and convince T-Mobile to give me a new phone.

The button in the middle, it's cracking and it's really annoying me. Anyways, it'll probably be the same model as I have. My pretty and purple phone. I like it's almost simpleness and whatnot. Plus I don't want to have to pay more than what I did last time.

Name suggestions? XD

Anywaaaays. I'm gonna take a nap, or something.
5th-Sep-2008 03:51 pm - Photoshop Help
Okay. I'm really starting to get frustrated at this point, and I don't know what else there is I can do.

I've been having trouble with getting this error message that says my scratch disk is full. I've gone through all the steps that I saw when I was looking around on the internet for answers (I deleted all the temp files, tried switching the drives around, I even defragged my hard drive), and it's still not working.

Anyone have any ideas?


Haha! I win. Apparently something I did worked.
5th-Sep-2008 01:32 pm - it's over
It's done.

She's gone.

I was on the phone; three lines waiting to be exact.

I didn't speak to her, she didn't speak to me. My boss was there until she left. I think she cried because her voice was different and she kept on sniffing.

She's gone.

No more being irritated by her.

...

...

...

YAY!!!!! *dances*



I'm at a loss for words to put in my tags for posts like these...

5th-Sep-2008 11:06 am - meh // work // letting the woman go
Meh. I'm starting my shift later today because we're letting the lady go today so I have to cover until 9pm so I'm starting at 12pm.

Starting at 12pm instead of 1pm because, when she'll get in at 1pm, she won't wonder why I'm starting at the same time as her since I'm always there at 9am everyday.

Anyway, I kinda don't wanna be at the front desk when my boss will ask her to come to her office or to follow her elsewhere in the office. I kinda don't wanna be there when she'll come out to pick up her stuff and leave. I don't want to be there in case she starts looking at me and ask questions on if I knew this was gonna happen and stuff. I don't wanna be there in case she turns on me angry or whatever.

Really, she's only got herself to blame for what's gonna happen to her today but she's most likely gonna ask me questions and... I just don't want to answer her. Hopefully she'll stay quiet, pick up her stuff and leave but I doubt that's the way it's gonna happen. She's a really chatty person.

Meh.

Next week, we're starting training with the other new lady. She's totally fresh out of Remax. Compared to this one who's been in Remax 7 years ago and only answered phones. The new person knows how to answer phones, how to put up files for each new listings and ask what documents are missing and she knows (we think anyway) how to search in the other program for listings all over the province for any agents in any company. The only program she doesn't know is the one for Royal lepage Champlain where we write down everything from the listings and the sales. Each company has its own program. Oh, and she doesn't know how to the the inventory of the listings in the book at the front desk that clients can go through and look for interesting properties. And the book for the pictures in the windows. That's gonna be brand new for her. Next week, we'll make her answer the phones and learn the name of the agents. Only that. If things go well, we'll make her do the listings. After that, we'll see.

Next week, my boss and I are going to "exchange" the evening shift between us. One day it's gonna be her, the next me or whatever. *sigh*

Well, I better go now if I wanna be able to go to the Bank before starting my shift...
