Jan. 17th, 2013 08:32 amOkay, I caved and got a Dreamwidth. It will pretty much just be a straight up copy/crosspost from here, but if anyone wants to add me, I'm domino43 over there, too.
This is just a post to say HELLO! to Dreamwidth. This will pretty much be a straight up copy/crosspost from my LiveJournal.

Guess what I ordered yesterday
Jul. 5th, 2011 05:46 pmI got the green ones.
I had $54 in my Amazon account, so I decided that I needed some shoes that weren't steel toed work boots. I originally wanted some blue and yellow sneakers to silently show my love for Boca Juniors, but the pair I had really wanted wasn't available anymore and most of the other ones that were close were either more than $54, or were very close. Since I couldn't get my blue & yellow sneakers, I then decided on some skate shoes. I had a pair of skate shoes several years ago and I loved them. I had some blue and/or teal-ish shoes I really liked. While going through different blu shoes I stumbled on these. I know Puma is a good brand and I as also considering some high tops, so these were pretty much exactly what I was looking for. Luckily for me Endless is currently running a 20% off athletic shoes special, so I got a pair of $42 shoes for $33.
They shipped today and are supposed to be here Thursday. I can't wait. XD

Feb. 17th, 2010 02:11 amI'm going to start off with something good.
A couple nights ago I had a strange dream. I was in what appeared to be a motor home with a bunch of people, some of whom were ST Reboot cast members. We were rehearsing what had to have been a scene from the sequel. We arrived at some building where we were helping with the writing/characterizations for the sequel. It was a school, I think. We had lockers in the hall and there were school desks in the room we were in. Everyone was sharing desks because there were only a few. In fact, I was sharing with Zachary Quinto and I-can't-remember-who. We were all talking about scenes or characters while one of the writers, or maybe it was J.J., stood there just taking it all in. I was squeezed onto the end of our desk until I realized the desk in front of us was free, so I moved there and turned around to continue my conversation with ZQ & Whomever. The really strange thing was I couldn't figure out who I was supposed to be. During our rehearsal in the motor home I specifically remember being called "Number One". But then, when we were in the room, I got the distinct feeling that I was supposed to be Spock. Which was part of the reason I was working with ZQ. But I was still female. The best I can figure is I was part of a weird mirror/alternate universe where Spock was a woman and Kirk called her "Number One", like the original first officer in "The Cage". I'm still puzzled. But I will FREAK OUT if the any of the Reboot sequels has a mirror/AU at all like that.

And OMG, the wank. Seriously. Why do some people have to take a perfectly nice community and ruin it with their wank? A mod should NOT act like that. You're a Moderator, not a Dictator. You're there to moderate. No one was harming anyone. A quiet, kind word would have gotten a better effect that your rude demands.
On a related note, I am now the maintainer/co-mod of a new community:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
conan_unrated. You know, I actually like being a mod. maybe it's because the two places I mod are fun. And Conan related. :)

(also, taking a break from the new ST mood theme for the Conan mood theme until this DEBACLE is over.)
First, before I forget, I had a very...odd? dream last night. Like, it wasn't totally weird, but it was one of those ones where you feel weird after you wake up. But maybe no one knows what I mean. IDK, it's hard to put into words. Anyway, so I'm standing on a street and for some reason I can see inside the Tonight Show studio. And they're recording that night's episode. Well, for some reason Andy or someone says something to me/asks me something and I answer. Conan apparently liked the answer, because he started asking me questions, the first was who's your favorite founding father? To which I answered "Jefferson" without hesitation. (IDK. *shrugs*) With a smile on his face and heading back to the desk he says, "alright", or something to that effect and then continues talking to me. The next thing I know, I'm waking up (in the dream) and start telling people about the dream. Because it felt so real, I want to make sure I and others watch, just in case. Then Corie finds this notebook open to these pages that have Conan's and my exact dialogue from the dream in it. Now I'm more convinced than ever to watch the episode, because something is just weird. And of course, just before it's time for the episode to start, I wake up irl.
Ooh. I never mentioned it before, but my cousin told me about SafeLink Wireless after she saw a commercial. SafeLink is a government program for low income people to get a free phone and free minutes every month so you have a way to stay in contact. You get one of two cheap, simple phones and 68 minutes a month. Though you can add minutes on your own. They go through TracFone, though, and TracFone has the most ridiculously expensive minutes out there. They're supposed to be coming out with SafeLink airtime cards soon and I can only hope they're at least a little more affordable than TracFone. You get service time for a year, at the end of which you have to re-apply. I had heard a vague mention of it some time ago, but wasn't sure what it was all about. So I went onto the website and decided to apply. I got ok'd and just a couple days ago I got my phone. It's really cheap and has NO bells and whistles and only 68 minutes a month, but it's something I can use when I'm home and no one else is there and I need to call the Dr or something. It's basically only good for making and receiving calls. And you can text.
Did I ever mention that I got my denial from SSI? Because I did, back in October. I applied for an appeal. I also got a lawyer. She actually got my aunt her disability after she'd been denied several times over 2 years. I still need to get one paper in to her before she formally accepts the case, but she said, with my Dr.'s cooperation, it looks like I have a good chance.
Also, I'm still waiting to hear from my Job & Family Services caseworker to see if I'll be getting medicaid. I should really call her and ask tomorrow.
Let's see, phone, SSI, Medicaid...that's all i was thinking of last night...No it wasn't. One more thing.
One of the cats (kitten, really) over here died yesterday. Or more accurately got killed. Okay, accidentally killed by Thomas. ( rest under a cut for those who would like to avoid it )

I am beat.
Aug. 8th, 2009 06:37 pmI actually feel felt like I had to be productive today. I caught up the laundry and did dishes, made a bag of homemade garlic croutons, and made some pudding (for me. hehe) and jello for either after dinner or for lunch tomorrow. Also made lunch for the kids. All within 2 hours. Now I'm beat. But if I can't get dad to make spaghetti tonight, I'll probably end up making it, since Corie and brother are outside with the kids. We'll see.
Oh, I can NOT stop singing these two songs to myself for the last few days:
That whole show is just great. Here's a link to my playlist of the whole show: Celtic Woman: A New Journey (Live @ Slane Castle)
Also, just because:
Swiped fromkishamaru. I think I can agree with this result.

Aug. 3rd, 2009 11:58 pmI just made some yummy Eggplant Parm for dinner tonight. A couple days ago my grandma brought over 4 small Chinese eggplants (the long skinny ones). I couldn't do a stuffed eggplant parm like I wanted, nor a layered one like a lot of people do. The pieces were so small I had to mix the sauce and cheese in, kind of like baked ziti. It was still pretty yummy.
OH! This morning (Monday morning, I guess) there was a fire at brother's work! I guess, one of their machines broke down and one of the guys went into the house (their office is in an old farmhouse on the property) to pee and came back telling a manager he smelled smoke. He went and checked it out and came back in yelling "THE BARN'S ON FIRE!". (on a lighter note: one of the guys thought he said "A BIRD'S ON FIRE!" LOL) They went out to try and put it out while 3 different guys called 911. Luckily it was just the barn where they store boxes and bags and things, so it wasn't really TOO big a loss. They got to come home early. I keep joking with brother that he started it so he could come home and take a nap, since that's what he did. They aren't sure what started it, but the workers are pretty sure it was the garage door motor b/c before the fire departments got there the door came slamming down on it's own. They go back tomorrow, so only one lost day of work. Here's a vid from the 6 o'clock news:

Jul. 5th, 2009 11:26 pmI just caught the end of a report last night on CNN about this place. They get donations of new and used books and sell them cheap. Their profits go to help literacy programs around the world. Most of the used books are under $4. All the books have free shipping in the US, $3.97 worldwide. I know next time I want a book I'm going to look here first.

This week has been so busy/frustrating. On Tuesday afternoon, Connor decided he just had to have a specific cup. He insisted it was in a lower cupboard (even though that's not where cups go) and went to get it. Well, there was a hot pot of water on the counter and he knocked it over. You can guess what happened. His hip got burned. Luckily it's only like a bad sunburn. But the dingus keeps moving around more than he should and rubbing it against stuff. We've been making sure to put cream/gel on it a couple times a day to keep it soothed and help it heal. He seems to be much better today, though I don't think he'll be fully healed for a little bit.
Also, this fanmix totally owns my life. Kat and Kathryn, have I told you how much I love you guys? ♥

So, someone over atcapslock_beatle found this site. It's rediculously HI-larious! I've been playing around with it for awhile. I nearly peed myself. For reals. I have affectionately named them all. Cuz I'm sick like that. :P
WARNING: VERY image heavy. And that pic of me is whited out from the flash. I'm not nearly that white.
( Some of MY babies )
Why do half of them have red hair? And what's with the rediculously dark one? Did it get the hispanic coloring out of both of us? And I think Me & Dhani's girl is unbelievably adorable. And Me & Viggo's girl? Make the hair blonde and that's pretty much EXACTLY how I pictured "Katorea Grace" from my Viggo story "Movie Magic". Creepy. @.@

Toledo Zoo
Jun. 3rd, 2008 04:36 pmSince brother and Corie are supposed to take the kiddos to the zoo this weekend, I decided to go to the zoo's website. Turns out they've got some live cams for a few of the animals. Down at the bottom of the left side-bar you can click and a new window will pop up. You can see 2 different views of the sealls and hippos and one of the elephants and polar bears. The polar bears and elephants seem a bit shy, though. This is the zoo I went to every year when I was in elementary school with school and we usd to go several times in the summer when I was younger as well. I haven't been there for years and they've upgraded it a LOT since then. If I could walk better I'd go this weekend, but...
Anyway, check out the animals. They're pretty awesome.
