Mirco Blog Updates: 2008-08-29.

  • Just sitting down to read more of today’s paper. #
  • At least this time around, they are prepared in New Orleans, even though the storm won’t be there for days and may not hit there. #
  • If they were to make a live-action Boondocks, I would have to say that Barack Obama would make a great Tom Dubious. #
  • Kittens: Natural heaters. They won’t catch things on fire (that much) nor do they suddenly burst into flames–usually. #
  • Struggling to stay awake. #
  • Are all Mounds (the candy bar) dark chocolate? If so, I wish they weren’t. I like them besides that fact. #
  • Peachy was just foaming again. It’s like he has a massive hairball and all he can do is cough and spit. #
  • I think me is sleepy. Sleeping kitten on bed no help. Snooze… #
  • Dinki and Scamper just came in when I brought J.’s plants in. Now Dinki is at my door screaming for no real reason. #
  • Waly and Peachy both just want to sleep on me and the bed tonight. Yet yesterday I couldn’t get Waly to stay in here for anything. #
  • I think I’m done with everything on the site, so I’ll be getting off the computer. Maybe I’ll sort through my images finally. #
  • I’m starting to get really sleepy and sore from not moving around so much, but I don’t want to go to bed early tonight. #
  • Need to go grab some plants from outside because it may actually rain sometime tonight. (Though I doubt it.) #
  • Had to restart computer. Working on site so it’ll be running properly when I’m away. #
  • I can’t find a flashlight. #
  • It would be nice to have a phone with a keyboard about now. #
  • Updating from my phone now to boost my poor texting abilities. #
  • Got my cell phone attached to the account and now everything’s all good. Too bad that HelloTxt isn’t up to par yet on that factor. #
  • Testing Twitter.. #
  • I’m just sitting here keeping an eye on Peachy for the night. He’s rather needy now, but he looks and is acting fine. Maybe he ate soap? #
  • I never saw Peachy drink any of the water though. The cats that did before I shooed them away are fine.. So I have no clue. #
  • The only thing I can think of is that we bought some fish today and I think the water they came in was treated. #
  • Waly already had his medicine and it was put away, so it couldn’t have been that. #
  • Can’t figure out what he got into to cause it. He coughed it up & his stomach gurgled, then he was all better. Scared the hell out of me. #
  • Peachy freaked me out. I came in and he was foaming and coughing. It looked like he had gotten into soap. He’s better now though. #

McCain Palin ‘08.

Wow. I don’t have much to say about McCain’s reasons behind deciding on a female running mate.

Except: There are only two good reasons I can think of him picking her.

  • He wants to hit it.
  • He thinks that, since Hillary Clinton is out, that female voters will vote in favor of him because his vice-president will be a woman.

Honestly, that’s the only reasons that I can think of. Believe me, I could go on and on and on about the whole damn thing, because I find it a tad bit insulting because I’m leaning more torwards the latter reason I have provided above.

I mean, seriously, why would someone like McCain go out of his way to choose someone with a lot less experience in the matters of greatest importance? It’s bad enough that McCain is basically wanting to continue on the Bush rein, let alone if his running mate has no idea what she’s getting into and won’t be much, if any, help in the long run.

Obama Biden ‘08.

I was cruising around the Barack Obama site, hoping that they would have updated their logos and buttons since he added Sen. Biden to his ticket. Alas, they have not yet. Is it so much to ask to update all of the site in one week? I guess so.

Anyway, I just wanted to point out something that appeared very strange to me:

Did you catch that? The Obama Biden part. What does that maybe-kinda-sorta look like at a quick glance?
Osama Bin Laden.?

No no no no no! I am not saying this is some creepy conspiracy or anything like that, I just thought it was odd when I saw that banner at the top of their site and the first thing the popped into my head was, “Dude, that sort of looks like Osama Bin Laden.

If people thought it was weird that Obama and Osama were close together, then this will just be frosting on their cakes. (Crazy cakes that is. Crazy-filled coffee cakes of doom.)

PS - I’m not sleepy.. I swear.

Mirco Blog Updates: 2008-08-28.

  • Looking through more stuff online.. Though my phone is much faster at downloading the images and data. #
  • Oh, I can view my sites on my phone and update my microblog from it too, so I might not be on the computer when you think I am. #
  • Thanks to everyone that has been clicking on my babies while I’ve been rather busy as of late.. Nothing has managed to die yet. #
  • Going to click my clickables, that are all rigged now, before waiting for an hour to get out of the house. #
  • Online to check email. Nothing new of course, but I had to check. #
  • Of course, we don’t get any insurance until the big expense is over. Isn’t that the way life goes? #
  • There is no way for us to magically come up with that much money in that short of amount of time. Insurance doesn’t kick in until Sept. #
  • Then we have bills next week, so we won’t have that much to save back for the doctor’s pay. #
  • Seriously though, we need some money. What we will have this week is fair enough, to go out and buy stuff for the nursery. #
  • Wrote down names and everything we need to buy, give or take because I’m not for sure what people have bought so far. #
  • Horribly itchy. #
  • Tigger was lying at the foot of the bed stratching the hell out of his ear, but he’s stopped now and going to, probably, go eat. #
  • Also, my grandmother is supposed to be coming home in about a week. I don’t know how that’s going to work out, with room and all. #
  • So close to time.. I have to call the doctor’s office in the morning and see what’s up. I’m so freaked out right now it’s not even funny. #

Waiting…

Mirco Blog Updates: 2008-08-27.

  • What about the people that seriously cannot afford that? I don’t know how in the hell we’re going to manage, but they expect us to. #
  • I swear, the hospital can manage to give us payment options, but not the damn doctor. Half of the money up front, or no go. Evil. #
  • I would really like to know a way to come up with $1150.oo in a matter of weeks. Because, well, we have to have that much money up front. #
  • Though I still have an hour to wait and see if that works or not. Great, I just have to find something to do until then, and then I sleep. #
  • Still wondering if my microblog is going to update today for yesterday, if that makes any sense whatsoever. #
  • I can’t wait till Halloween! The stores are already putting out things for it and I just want to decorate! #
  • It would be nice if I didn’t keep getting kicked offline. Then, I might be able to get some things done before going to sleep. #
  • I wish there was something to drink besides orange juice. I guess I can drink some milk, though I don’t much like too. #
  • Wow, I managed to nab one egg in hopes of getting the female version which I don’t have yet. Hardly any eggs this hour. #
  • Well, now it’s not having any trouble uploading or downloading the images. Maybe the host was just slow for a bit or something. #
  • …And the cats just knocked something over. Oh well, I have to get up to get something to eat while attempting to get this to upload. #
  • Man, why is it so hard to get things to upload properly tonight? It keeps messing up the last file and then disconnecting my http://FTP. #
  • So far, I only have posts up to the end of November. Though I’m sure that I’ll be really busy around the holidays, so I have to fix that. #
  • Now, I will still send little updates through my phone if and when I have the time to keep it updated.. Sort of. #
  • Tonight I am only online to work on my blog. Just making future entries and getting everything ready for when I can’t get online. #
  • Hmm, I think I remember putting more coupons in the computer chair. I know there are more in my glove compartment too.. #
  • I wonder when, and if, my mircoblog thing is going to update to the site and if it will be double-posting as it has been lately. #
  • Two more images left to upload. ..And I’ve only been disconnected a couple of times so far! #
  • Jorja Fox, from CSI, is not a very pretty woman. But, I do like the way her name is spelled. XD #

Mirco Blog Updates: 2008-08-26.

  • Almost everything is uploaded, finally. Now just to get the images to load so I can make sure that they are all working right. #
  • Waly is under the laptop. He was up against my leg, until I moved and he fell over. #
  • Also, we went and ate Chinese this afternoon and when we went to leave, I had J. buy himself a bunch of lucky bamboo for next to nothing. #
  • Bought a new water bowl for the dogs today. It’s more like a big tin barrel so they will share and play in it. They would kill kiddy pool. #
  • Now it’s just taking forever for these images to load from the internet onto my computer. Of course, I already know what they look like.. #
  • Still uploading. I’ll make two posts out of this, since there are 14 images. #
  • Lots of nice pictures of cars. I hope you guys will enjoy them. It’s the first time in a long time I didn’t take the photos. #
  • Uploading several pictures to make a couple of blog posts with. Hopefully I won’t get disconnected before it’s done. #
  • Trying to get comfy while on the computer and watching television. #
  • Zzzz.. #
  • With a sleepy/sleeping kitten on my lap, I find it hard not to be rather tired. #
  • I’ve been rather dizzy and off-balance–who’da thunk?–lately and I am currently very sleepy. #
  • I still need to fix my smilies, but I don’t feel like bothering with it now, seeing as I have no idea where the edited function.php is. #
  • I hadn’t seen the beginning of the first episode of The Oblongs. Which is surprising, because I’ve seen this episode a ton of times. #
  • Added a little subscribe-y thingy on the right-hand side of the theme. You should click it and stuff. #
  • Going to add this to my cell phone so I can update offline when I’m away.. It’ll be much easier to update the blog a bit that way. #
  • Almost time for my updates to be posted to the blog. I wonder if it’s going to double-post them again..? #
  • I have to remember to get the bank account numbers to pay the hosting bill and order some of my domains ahead of time so I don’t forget. #
  • Almost feel like taking the images off my camera, but then I stopped and thought about editing and uploading them and put my camera away. #
  • Okay, I’ll work on IB later when I feel the need to make my head explode. I do not feel like working on PHP right this moment. #
  • Yays! I finally have the updates for Invision Board, so I guess I can get to working on it again. #
  • I think the Sims should come out with something new and fun.. The Sims: Sale! Yard, garage, estate, car, and house sales. #
  • I know there is more for me to do online, but I’m not for sure what I’m supposed to be doing anymore. #
  • I’m just going to have to get online at least once a month, preferably every week, and update my toybox. I hate it being unorganized. #
  • Lots of CSI on tonight. Lovely. #
  • I wonder when J. gets another break and/or lunch break.. I don’t really know when or if he’ll get another chance to message me tonight. #
  • Blah. I feel so icky half the time. Though, I can’t complain much. It’s almost over with already! #
  • I completely forgot that Waly was lying next to me until he moved a little in his sleep. #
  • It never fails as of late… As soon as I get around to doing something, I get very sleepy and I want to go to bed. #
  • Working on three things at once.. And I keep getting lost. #
  • I wish that Sprint had their website in working order at all times, instead of just half-assed all the time. #
  • We took him to the vet on Saturday and he’s now on several medicines to get rid of some infections and such. He’s rather needy. #
  • Did I mention we saved and rescued a kitten from the garden department of our local Wal-Mart? His name is Waly. #
  • There’s a new adopt on Valenth, of course. I haven’t logged on for a while, so there’s a new one. #
  • Need to breed my dragons in hopes of getting a new silver egg. (Like that’ll happen.) #
  • Adding text messaging to cell phone plans, because if I don’t the messages are going to cost a fortune. #
  • I swear, if I don’t get online every couple of days, my toybox is never sorted properly. #
  • J. took lots of pictures at the Frog Follies this weekend. There are some good shots that I want to use this week, if I get around to it. #
  • When was the last time I was online? #
  • Need to write down the baby names that we’ve picked out, because I’m still not for sure how to spell them based on what we already picked. #
  • We went out and took lots of pictures this weekend, but I haven’t even dropped them off onto my computer yet. #
  • I’m planning on making several posts tonight for the future, in case I can’t get online again for some time. #
  • I wish my Mircoblog wouldn’t double post for no apparent reason when I’m away. #
  • At least we now know that J. can use messages at work, even if he doesn’t get good enough reception to call during break. #
  • Would it be ironic to have a baby on Labor Day? #

Frog Follies 2008: Part 1.

The Frog Follies is a local antique car show that is held just south of our home once a year.
For more information about it, please visit their website: FrogFollies.org.

My wonderful husband wants to get his own camera, but I told him he could just use mine for the time being and enjoy taking some photos. So, yes, I basically told him to run off with my camera so he could take pictures for once. Hence, every image has his website on them rather than mine.







If there is anyone out there with more photos from the Frog Follies in their blog, please drop me a comment and I’ll link to your blog in the next post!

(I’m making this into two posts, simply so there aren’t as many images in just one post. There will be seven pictures per post.)
