Gosh, I can’t thank everyone enough for the birthday wishes! This community rocks something hard!
First off, Matsuo and Hardluckwoman, thanks so much for the lovely cards you made. I adored them.
Hinaru, enin, Milky, Beck, Tiff, Shadow, and Matsuo again, thanks for the shout outs and the lovely posts. Especially Beck and Shadow. How could I ask for more wonderful friends. You guys are the best. And thank you to everyone who stopped by to wish me a happy birthday. ^_^
Hehe, and enin, my dear Joshie, I couldn’t have asked for a better present. Joshie-poo made me a couple of interesting vids and I can’t express in words how totally amused I was. They made my day. Thank you muchly. I’d share the love with you, but I don’t know if he’d want me to, hehe. And besides, I don’t mind snatching them all for myself, rawr.
Thank all of you. *huggles* It’s so sweet to come on and see so many shout outs. I adore you all. So what did I do today? Well as you know, John’s parents took us out to Garfield’s today, and it was super yummie. And afterwards the hubby and I spent a nice evening at home watching DS9 and drinking Kanar. Yes, I’m a nerd. =P If you don’t know what kanar is, then you wouldn’t appreciate how neat it is, and how nerdy it is at the same time, ha ha ha.
Well I just wanted to say thanks to everyone, and now I’ve got to go to bed, work tomorrow, boo. Have a great day and thanks you wonderful people you!
Man, it has been a while since I’ve posted again, eh? A lot has happened since then. So here we go. I’ll try to keep everything short and to the point.
Well to start off, apparently like over a hundred people showed up for my cousin’s funeral. He was well liked and will be missed.
And I got to ride on a speedboat and got my first scooter ride last weekend. It was all lots of fun. We pulled a skier with the boat for a while, and Ryan (the skier) his dad was driving and went around a turn at full speed, and of course, Ryan fell off. Heh, he turned the boat around and Ryan’s comment, “are you trying to kill me?” He dad was like “not fast enough for you? I couldn’t go any faster!” Heh, they are an interesting father and son I tell ya.
The hubby finally got his scooter a couple of weeks ago. He got a Piaggio, the company that makes the Vespas. It’s nice, and pretty silver, and can go like 85 miles and hour. So it’s not a little scooter by far. It’s as large as most motorcycles and I finally got to ride on the back of it. Oh man, it was a lot of fun! I’ll have to post a pic of it some time.
Aww, and my cousin Becky got married Saturday. She looked beautiful. She was my maid of honor and the closest thing I had to a sister growing up. I almost cried when she walked down the aisle. I had a lot of fun at the reception as well.
And yesterday, three of my co-workers surprised me with birthday presents. It was very sweet. They got me cookies, a little PT Cruiser model (I love my Leia) and the third season of the Family Guy. I was so surprised. And today for my birthday, John’s parents are coming up to take us out to eat. And I think I want to go to Garfield’s. For those of you who know what they are, heh. Best cheesy fries ever! Plus happy hour! Heh, though I can’t really take advantage of that. Oh well. =P
Hmm, what else? Oh yeah, the Crèche is up and running from its new location. The url is [here] if you want to check it out. So those of you who have banners up, please change the link urls cause I’m going to shut down the old one soon. I still haven’t gotten the rest of white-satin up, but a big thanks to all those who are donating graphics to it already!! ^_^ You guys rock. But please keep the graphics at the url’s you’ve sent me until I send a confirmation that I’ve saved them to my server.
And... I think that’s about all. Enough, I say, heh, what a lot of rambling. =P Well I hope everyone has a great Monday cause I do intend to enjoy mine. ^__^
Hey everyone, how’s it going? For me, the situation at work is getting a little better. So we’ll be hopeful. Urgh, but I’m sick now though. I’ve had a sore throat the past couple of days and today I feel rotten. It hasn’t really turned into anything besides the sore throat, but today I just feel really raunchy.
Firefly
A lot of you have asked what Firefly is. Well it’s a TV show, obviously. But since there’s a marathon coming up, look to the banner below, and I wouldn’t be a Browncoat if I didn’t try to convert more fans, the next time I post I’ll put some info about the show up. How’s that? Maybe it’ll spark some of the newbie’s interest and you’ll watch the marathon. Oh, and as of yet, I have never gotten someone to watch the show who didn’t simply fall in love with it afterwards. It’s that good.
More bad news
I think everyone seems to be going gun crazy lately. What gives? First a father shoots and kills his kids and himself at my school, in the most peaceful and safe little town you’d ever find. Then the shooting in Montreal.
And now, just yesterday, my cousin shot and killed himself. My first cousin, I should say, he was my mother’s sister’s youngest son.
I don’t understand. He always seemed so calm and levelheaded to me. Very polite and nice. Like he had a stable head on his shoulders. The really sad thing is, he has a wife and kids too. And his mom, my aunt, just lost her husband a little over a year ago. I just don’t know. I mean, why?
Do you ever notice how it seems a majority of people don’t read all of a person’s post when they visit? I mention a double murder/suicide at my school and it would seem the only thing most people read was the very last lines of the post involving Steve Irwin. Oh well, I guess it’s good people can spot a celebrity’s name in a paragraph. I was going to bitch about work, but I think not anymore. The only ones that would read it all anyway I’ve already told, so same difference.
Anyway, like the banner below shows, there’s going to be a Firefly marathon on the Sci-fi channel coming up soon, for anyone that’s been wanting to see it. Heh, hay Petie, here ya go. =P If you haven’t seen this show, then you should watch it. It really is amazing.
Another quick post for me, I just wanted to let you guys know I’m still alive, heh. I have a whole boat load of crap to complain about for work, and someone in particular. And ya know, it’s my page; I think I will, bitching is good for the soul. But I’ll do it next time cause I don’t feel like typing it all out right now.
In other news besides that, there was a shooting at my university. A father shot his two college sons and himself right in front of a dormitory. The one I used to live in, nonetheless. I mean, wtf inspires someone to gun down their own children? One tried to run away too for Christ’s sake. Shepherdstown is a small, peaceful little college town, that kind of stuff just shouldn’t happen there. It’s disturbing.
And my god, Steve Irwin was killed today, well yesterday by now. That’s sad as well, I loved that guy. I’d have to say I looked up to him for running a zoo and raising a family. And he was just plain entertaining, ya know.
So, with all this depressing stuff, well I lied, and a not so short post, how about something funny? Cause we need humor the most when we’re down. It’s another Firefly goodie.
A must see for all Browncoats!
If you missed last times Firefly goodie, you can find it in the archives.
Nothing much to say again for me. I finally got a day off yesterday and enjoyed it. But it’s back to work already, le sigh. I know I still have love posts to catch up on and I haven’t worked on white-satin for a while. And I'm sorry for still not getting around to anyone. But thanks Bells and Jess for submitting icons for display! ^__^ You guys rock. Oh and, heh, I haven’t saved them yet, so don’t delete them from those urls quite yet. Sorry for being slow about that.
I do have a goodie for Firefly fans though. It’s a little tribute I came across on youtube. Watch it and spread the support!
Man, I’m tired and I want to go back to bed, but I can’t, boo. I’m also sick and tired of all the drama going on at work. I hate crybabies, grow the fuck up already. And I’m particularly bitchy because this is day number 8 in a row without a day off, and I still have one more to go. That place is going to drive me crazy.
I’m sorry for not visiting anyone lately and generally not being around. I’m being a horrible master right now as well. I’m sorry Tiff and Jess. I’m not sure when I’ll be back next, but I promise it won’t be as long as this time.
It’s been another while; I suppose I should post something. =P What I have been doing this week, nothing excessively brilliant. I did, however, get the main page of my new site finished. Petie pwns us all, just deal with it. Thank you again for your help! You can view the main page with the link below. Obviously, the other pages haven’t been built yet, so the links won’t take you anywhere. =P
The site is going to be a graphics goodie place with icons, sig banners, and pre-made layouts for people to download. There are some talented layout makers here on the O contributing to the layout section. It should be good. ^__^ And I’ll be sending a PM to you ladies I’ve already asked either today or tomorrow with more specifics about it.
Want your art displayed?
I am, however, going to need more avatars and banners. I’d like this site to host a collection of graphics from many different people. Our own little myO collective, if you will. So if you would be interested in donating some of your graphics for display, feel free to PM me. You’ll get full credit for your work and I will host the images for you. I’m afraid I do reserve the right to decide what will be displayed, as this is a site for high quality graphics. But there’s no harm in trying to get your stuff displayed, is there? And I know there are many of you talented in this area. The only requirements for icons and banners is this.
Avatars need to be 100x100, no other sizes.
Sig banners can be any size. But they do need to have "white-satin.net" on them somewhere, it doesn’t have to be glaringly obvious. Just subtle. We want people to know where a person got it, so they’ll find the site and download more of your graphics.
As for content. Avatars and banners can be on any subject you like, movies, anime, actors, books… whatever you want. Just remember that people will probably download avatars and such on subjects they are familiar with, over others.
There will also be an artist section with profiles of all the artist who have donated to the site. So snap to it my little graphic making chickadees! We can make this a wonderful collective site. Don’t be afraid to submit your stuff!
And now to continue the lovin’s posts with Dark Sephiroth, or Sephy-chan as some of you know her. To me, I can’t find a nickname that expresses how much I luff her, but she does let me call her Josie-cat without giving me the evil eye, haha. Long, but short story…. Anyway, ahem. Oh man, what haven’t Sephy and I been through? But do you know what? She was there through it all. And never once did she think of leaving.
Cause that’s Sephy, whether she realizes it about herself or not. She’s a beautiful, independent, and fiercely loyal friend. She’d take on and knock the head off of someone twice her size if they were daring to hurt someone she cared for. It’s hard to express how much I admire that trait about someone. Heh, cause really, the girl does have it all, the looks, the heart, and the style.
The style you can get from her absolutely gorgeous graphics. I think Sephy was one of the people who inspired me to get into making graphics. She puts many of us to shame and intimidates the rest. But the thing I adore most, is her heart. Something you wouldn’t find out until you get to know her on a more personal level. She’s very tolerant about any thoughts, ideas, and actions. She’s the kind of person that would never ridicule anything you did, whether it was stupid or not. And believe me, I’ve done plenty of stupid things. Instead she’ll try to offer some heh, obviously less stupid suggestions to you to try and guide you back to the safer way.
The girl is also full of a sort of passion you don’t see in many people. To me, I see it in everything she does, she attacks everything in life with all she has and pours her heart into it. I think that’s what makes her such a loyal friend. She puts her heart into friendships as well. And you can really tell. She’s not afraid to offer kind words of comfort, or use her incredible sense of humor to cheer you up when down, or to even just sit silently with you for quiet support. Even her quiet support is most comforting because you can just feel her loving and supportive nature come through without the words.
So my Sephy babe, I hope this post does you some justice. I want you to know how much I adore you. You are one of the best friends I’ve ever had. My stable confidant that I trust to confide anything to. And even though we’ve had our ups and downs, and sadly our own little squabbles, I don’t plan on ever letting you go. Heh, you’re stuck with me. You really are a wonderful gal, and I want everyone else to know it too, cause you deserve it.
I guess I should post something, eh? I don’t quite have the time to make a love post this time around. Man, I need to get cracking on more of those too. I still have like a dozen more to go. Got lots more lovin’ to spread around the otaku.
I bought two DVD’s the other day, they’re oldies, but classics. Mallrats and the Karate Kid. Bite me; I like the Karate Kid, okay. I was a kid in the 80’s, so I grew up with that movie. Brings back lots of memories, good times. And Mallrats is one of my favorite Kevin Smith films.
And now, just cause I said so, one of my favorite scenes from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. It’s a total Star Wars/Batman parody. Made even better cause it’s actually Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker himself).
[Warning: lots of silliness and foul language abound]
Gosh, I can’t thank everyone enough for the birthday wishes! This community rocks something hard!
