To all of my friends here on Vampire Rave...have a great holiday!
(And try not to over-do the eating and drinking...that will be my job).
Does anyone remember this lil' guy?
COMMENTS
Yes. That is me just prior to my morning coffee.
WTF is THAT??? lol
Lol, wicked spear!
Still...no one has guessed at who/what this is? LOL!
(I'm dating myself again, it seems)...
I remember that movie! Karen Black was in it, yes?
YAH!!! Become got it! It was a made-for-TV film consisting of three stories, called "Trilogy of Terror"
My fave story was the 3rd one, with the lil' killer Zuni fetish doll, who loved to kill.
For weeks, I was afraid to go to bed, thinking that the lil' bastard was hiding under the bed.

fish don't fry in the kitchen..beans don't burn on the grill..took a whole lot of tryin' to male it up that hill!
You're almost to Sire!
Yay... nearly Sire...
Well, I added you to my lists, so that should help you along. :)
Wow... : )
What bullshit... A woman replied to the resume I sent her, and was all eager to meet me ASAP! She wanted me to drop by today to fill out an application as well...so I go by at the time she suggested...and she wasn't in.
But that isn't the kicker...funny how the bitch didn't tell me that the store was closing (in less than a month, according to one employee); there were close-out signs all over the place! No mention of this in the employment ad! Now, if the job was gonna' be for at least 2 -3 months, I'd have considered taking it if offered, as it would've helped get me over for a bit, even though the pay was crap. I did call about an hour later to follow up, but she still wasn't in...
What a damn waste of my time.
Even though I'm on a tight budget, I bought my mom two lil' Xmas gifts since I was already out at the mall...
(The good news I received yesterday was that I'll be getting that 4th federal extension in unemployment benefits).

So a little silver lining for that grey could after all eh? Sorry about the employment thing, that does suck though.
People just suck...well some do lol!
lols jeeze.
Duh...actually, it's the 3rd federal extension...but 4th time overall in getting unemployment benefits.
I stole this from Nyteshade...I had to have it!
LITTLE GIRL ON A PLANE
A Georgia Congressman was seated next to a little girl on
the airplane leaving from Atlanta when he turned to her and
said, 'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go
quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow
passenger.'
The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it
slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would you
like to talk about?'
'Oh, I don't know,' said the southern
congressman. 'How about global warming or universal
health care', and he smiles smugly.
'OK, ' she said. 'Those could be interesting
topics. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow,
and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer
excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty,
and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you
suppose that is?'
The southern legislator, visibly surprised by the little
girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says,
'Hmmm, I have no idea.'
To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel
qualified to discuss global warming or universal health care
when you don't know shit?
I just realized that I have stalking blocked...I don't even recall why I did it.
In any case, it's off...not like I'm gonna' get a bunch of stalkers anyway - LOL!
Major internet connection problems for almost two days; a tech came out today to fix the problem...I had to get a new modem and some other gadget...good grief!
Well, now I'll be able to log on to VR toinight if I have time.
The San Francisco area is NOT suppose to drop to 29 degrees at night!
COMMENTS
dood.... i know... what the fuck is up with that. this is nuts... snow in san jose!!!!
You mean its warmer at night over there? We had 28 degrees + 98% humidity in Hong Kong - I was sweating like a piggie!
lol, I feel your pain. This morning it was 19 :(
Hey - we are a lil' spoiled here weather-wise.
Winter nights are usually in the low 40's...

Now...let's see if it takes a nose-dive unexpectedly tomorrow.
Spending the holiday with family; either at my mom's or my sister's. I will usually do the following:
-watch midnight mass at the Vatican on TV - even though I'm not Catholic
-sleep
-get up, have breakfast, get dressed, and go to one of the above houses
-talk - we talk a lot. In English and Spanish, and some kind of hybrid language, especially if drunk
-play games, drink, watch movies, drink, open gifts, eat an early dinner, loud music, movies, games, drink, etc
-maybe take a nap on a sofa
-eat some more, drink
-get a ride home, with food and gifts
-sleep
maybe - if I had too much to drink - I'll have a headache, But it was all worth it!
A few days ago, my friend Carrie invited me to an all-expense paid 3-day trip to Disneyland @ the 19th! I'd love to go, but I have too much going on/not going on right now:
For starters, I just moved and I don't know anyone in this new complex that I could trust to take care of my cats, let alone pay them. (Carrie suggested that her man James would take care of them, but she volunteered his services - LOL! I don't think the poor guy is gonna' want to drive across town every evening after work to tend to my cats. It was easier when we all lived in the same complex)...
And I'd need some spending money - especially if I'm also suppose to be going to a big punk-thrash show with her, to see one of her friend's bands in action.
And what if my stomach pains me so much that I won't be able to do anything?
I've mentioned all of the above to Carrie, but she still wants me to go. I do appreciate the invitation, but it really isn't feasible right now.
Bummer.
I like to be a goof with a few folks here. An example (Read from the bottom up, of course):
LMAO!
I gotta' save this...going into my journal now! LOL!

lol Woman!!!
Isis you are so crazy. that was funny
Since I'm waiting for that 4th unemployment extension and my WIA classes to kick in, I decided to go ahead and file for gov't assistance...something I would have never dreamed of doing, ya' know? But I figure, I may as well try to get a lil' something while I wait.
Anyway, to be eligible for these gov't funds, one has to take part in a lot of classes and meetings, while continuing the job search. The job search has not stopped with me, but the other stuff is new - including sitting in the huge welfare office with tons of unruly kids and people coughing and sneezing everywhere. (There are hand sanitizer stations everywhere, but hardly anyone uses them. I do - I'm kind of a germaphobe).
Okay - I'm rambling here. Anyway, I had a two-day workshop with an interesting bunch this week. Of the 20 people in the class, 5 were ex-cons. Most were kinda' scary - but one did look and behaved like a college student - LOL! There was one though who seemed pretty scary - it didn't help that he kept staring at me, grinning. I later figured out that he was laughing at what a dork I was, burning my mouth with hot coffee, dropping shit, etc. He ended up being really cool - told me that he was indeed laughing at me. (Once a dork, always a dork).
Everyone in the class was nice. I have to say that when we had partners for interview role-playing, my partner and I were the best - it was suggested that we should have been in the video we saw which showed the right way to interview. (I was the person being interviewed. I was pretty good concealing my nervousness too).
One woman in class gave me an unexpected gift on the second day - a cool lil' handbag that she made out of a soda pop can! I was speechless - I thanked her and told her that the purse actually matched a hot pink coat that I have and love.
I'll be seeing the same group next week, as we go in to turn in our job searches. I have to be sure to keep in touch with them all!
I was here a bit yesterday; I posted in my coven forum and the main forum. I rated a few profiles and some stuff in the database. My level was 97.94...
Today, it is 96.42...WTF???
Okay - I think I get it; when VR does updating, the latest info is lost temporarily...?
