Okay, there are possible TwoPeople out there who have any idea why I'd take the time to record myself reading Fox in Socks by Dr. Seuss, and then to post it online.
That doesn't mean they'll actually want to hear it, but just in case they do....or in case YOU do for that matter.
or if that wont work cause I dont know what I'm doing, go HERE to the soucre of the evil to hear it.
At the very least it's good for a hearty "point and laugh" session at my expense.

Somebody put me out of my misery...
I can't sleep anymore. Night time is the enemy. My bedroom fiendish territory.
I cannot sleep. My eyes come open of their own violation, I stare at the unmoving arms of my ceiling fan.
Sometimes I cry, because I cannot sleep. Becasue its only a few hours until I have to quit pretending, get out of bed and go to work.
I am a zombie, the walking dead, with glazed eyes. I'm a bitch to customers at work, distant with coworkers. I want to be alone.
Sometimes I go to the bathroom and I sit.
Sometimes I cry, at work and at home because I'm just so very tired. My eyes burn with sleeplessness, every inch of my body aches, and I cannot think anymore.
I can't sleep.
Its time for bed now. After midnight. My husband is asleep. My dogs are asleep. My cat is asleep. My rats are asleep. Even my betta fish is asleep. My burning eyes want to sleep, my tired body wants to sleep.
There is no sleep in me.
****
Listened to Utiopia on Mango Radio tonight, like every sunday night. Where were you?
Yes, I know this is an old picture, its been around for years, but its a classic, damnit. One I will break out every thanksgiving without fail. (At least until I forget about it.)
Well, HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone. Utopia, Jeckles and the rest of the Shitty Blogs Club. Well, that covers everyone that actuallys reads this damn blog anway. -grin-
Today was a decent day around here. I slept until lunch time, then got up and had our thanksgiving dinner. We didn't eat Big Bird, but the turkey was almost that large. We also had half a pig, and some other fixings.
After lunch we played a game of monopoly, then came home and put up our indoor christmas decorations.
I took many pictures today, and as I uploaded them to my computer I realized that they were mostly pictures of my cat. Only like, 2 of my husband, 1 of me, and one of him, his mom, and me at the table. But lots of my cat.
Okay...so I like my pussy. Get over it.
Here is her picture. And that is my husband holding her. I was going to put up a picture of me holding her, then I remembered how hedious I am. So I didn't. Not that my husband is any less hedious...but he's not me, and thats always a plus.
and also my fish
******
Oh, and since Utopia was the only one to make me a banner, I'll use her banner. I might even used ALL of her banners over time. Change them every once in a while. (PS. To answer your question Utopia, I woudlnt' want it much taller than 200px, but you can have it as long as you want it, as long as it wont make my page scroll. I dont know how long that woudl be though.)
If YOU want to make a banner for my blog, you still can. It must have mushrooms, at least one ladybug, the title of my blog, and the url of my blog on it.
******
I have news about my "YummY! Out Loud" podcast I was going to put out. I'll talk about it later.
saw this movie with my hubby Saturday. I've not seen that many people thronging to a movie since we went to the midnight showing of the last Star Wars.
I was alittle dissapointed in the movie though.
It wasn't a BAD movie. Maybe a badly directed movie.
As a fan of the Harry Potter books, I didn't like that they left so much out. I understand WHY....still didn't like it.
Everything left out was the transitional things, the little things that made the novel flow. Therefor the movie had not flow. It jerked and jumped and lurched from one scene to another.
I also thought they didn't pay as must attention as they should have to a couple of details.
I also found it hard to watch the movie, knowing what I know after reading the 6th novel.
Has anyone else been jaded on the movie, after reading the novels and knowing whats going to happen with certain characters?
******
Are you good at making graphic banners?
Would you like your blog pimped out to the public?
See the post below this one for details on how making me a blog banner could get your blog pimped.
So, I've decided that I need a new banner for this blog, and a larger one for my as of yet uncreated "YummY! Out Loud" page.
I've also decided that I want YOU to make it for me.
What would YOU get about making me a banner?
Well, if you make the banner I choose, I would pimp the hell out of you. I would pimp YOUR blog in every one of my posts for a month. I would also pimp your blog on my "radio" show for one entire month once I start making it.
What I'm looking for is as follows:
For THIS blog:
A toadstool (think the old Mario Bros mushrooms) and a ladybug and, of course the words "YummY! Down on This" and the sites url (which is http://www.yummydown.blogspot.com) This MUST be in black and white (or at least MOSTLY black and white. TINY touches of color will be allowed).
And for the YummY! Out Loud page:
Likewise, a toadstool, and a ladybug with earphones on (walkman...diskman...iPod..what the fuck ever, but it MUST be wearing earphones) and the words "YummY! Out Loud"
This can be in black and white, or color. However YOU see fit.
I'm already getting banners, and they are good ones! C'mon. YOU can do it too!

Let me pimp YOU!!!
I'm in need of new banners. I need a new one for this page, and a larger one for my "YummY! Out Loud" page which hasn't been created yet.
If you make a banner (or banners) for me and I decide to use it (or them) I will pimp YOUR blog in every post I make for an entire MONTH. Likewise, when I start producing YummY! Out Loud on air, I'll also pimp your site there in every show for an entire MONTH.
What I'm looking for in these are
For THIS blog:
A toadstool (think the old Mario Bros mushrooms) and a ladybug and, of course the words "YummY! Down on This" and the sites url (which is http://www.yummydown.blogspot.com) This MUST be in black and white.
and for the YummY! Out Loud page:
Likewise, a toadstool, and a ladybug with earphones on (walkman...diskman...iPod..what the fuck ever, but it MUST be wearing earphones) and the words "YummY! Out Loud"
This can be in black and white, or color. However YOU see fit.
There...I've begged. Do I really expect anyone to come through for me on this one? No. I'll probably shit myself if it does happen, but hey, a girl can dream.

Dear Customer...
You suck. You suck yellow monkey ass. Yes, I'm talking to you.
Do you even attempt to LOOK before you ask me where something is? I know that you dont because I've told three of you dumb customer fucks where to look for somethign today by pointing over your shoulder because you were standing right in front of it.
OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES! DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF.
And I have to ask you, do you just wander around the store tryign to find the busiest person there is to help you? Three of my co-workers are standing at the other end of this aisle talking, I'm on the floor, sitting shoulder deep in boxes I'm trying to unpack and shelve. I know you migh think its rude to interrupt them, but they'll be much happier to walk you to the other side of the store where you item is and show it to you, and then I could stay right here and GET MY JOB DONE!!!!
Thank You, Your Helpful Employee
Serously though, I think I deserve a medal today. It took me over 2 hours to do what it would have taken me 30 mintues to do if the customers would have left me alone. I had to keep walking them to the other side of the store because they coudln't wrap their TINY little consumer brains around the words "Its at the end of the first aisle to your left." No, I had to stop what I was doign and WALK them to it.
Even the items that were RIGHT BEHIND them, I had to stand up, move my boxes, point directl to the item. "Its right there." They woudl laugh "Oh, I was right in front of it. I should ahve looked a little harder!"
Yes, I agree with them silently, yes, dumbass, you shoudl have LOOKED!

Happy Birthday
Happy birthday, you steaming pile of shit!
Thats right. The Shitty Blogs Club had a birthday, and none of its shitty members realized it. Even the Shitmaster himself didn't notice until it was too late.
But is it ever too late to have a kick ass birthday bash?
I think not.
I demand that everyone go to the SBC and leave a HAPPY SHITTY BIRHTDAY (or, annivesary, whichever you want to call it) comment.
So, last night I got home from work and, doing the thing that is good and right, I completely ignored my husband and listened to Utopia’s show on Mango Radio. I even joined her in the chat room. We were the only two in there, and I really did enjoy talking to her.
Not to mention that I learned she has good taste in music. REALLY good taste in music.
And me, being the unashamed rip off artist that I am, after listening to Shitty Blog Radio, and Utopia’s show, want my own show now.
Of course, since I’m horribly lazy and don’t want a deadline AND because I get the feeling that Mango doesn’t like me very much (then again I get the feeling that NOBODY likes me very much, so it could just be all in my head) I wont be e-mailing him for details on how to possibly become a Mango Radio DJ.
I will possibly be putting my attempts at hosting a show up at potomatic.com.
That is IF I can ever find where the damn microphone went. It seems to have been horribly misplaces, seeing as how I’ve not seen it every since we moved from point a to point b about 3 years ago now.
My husband, who did all the packing, is the only person who might know where it is and....he has no clue where it is and isn’t showing particular interest in helping me look for it.
When it came time to pass out the "I give a shit and I’ll support my wife’s interests" to the husbands, I guess my hubby either didn’t get in line, or got the last dregs of it, cause he really DOESN’T give a shit and the only interests he supports is his OWN interests.
Eh, well, in the meant time I get to pimp my idea to my friends at all my blogs (I keep blogs at LOTS of places, which is why I occasionally disappear here) and it gives me time to learn how to work Audacity.

Battle of the Ages
It was the battle to end all battles in the street in front of my house today.
It was the battle we've all know. The battle we've been taught is religion. The hatred that is just RIGHT.
The battle between cats and dogs.
Well, the battle between A cat and A dog anyway.
The participants were my cat Moe (Moe is FEMALE by the way) and the neighbors dog, Luke.
Luke had jumped his fence. Moe had left her property. They met in the middle of the street.
Luke bowed down and barked. Moe arched up and hissed.
Luck backed up and barked again. Moe stood her ground, still arched up, still hissing.
She was saying, in her native kitty tounge, "Stay the fuck away from me man! I'm a lady and I'm so pissed off at you that I am ready, willing and able to claw your eyes out. Bring it on!"
Luke was shouting in his doggy language, "Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it!"
I yelled Lukes name, trying to get him to leave my cat alone. He tured his head to look at me. Moe saw her chance to escape and hauled ass.
There was a short chase that ended up with my kitty up another neighbors tree and Luke across the street in someone elses yard with my husband chasing him down.
I coaxed Moe out of the tree, carried her across the street at which point she trotted inside and said, "Where's my supper?" The whole incident forgotten.
Meanwhile, back in his own yard, Luke is still chanting, "Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it! Cat! Gotta eat it!"

Oooo, haiku.
Utopia has written YummY! haiku, all because of me not only listening to Shitty Blog Radio last night, but hopping into the chat room and talking to much, (cause thats what I do...I talk to much).
I'm so excited about this that I think I wet myself!
NEW YORK – World Fantasy Award-winning writer Stephen King, long acknowledged as the master of modern horror, and Marvel Comics join forces this spring to launch a ground-breaking new comic book series adapted from King’s magnum opus, The Dark Tower. The first issue is scheduled to debut in April 2006.
The comic series will mark the first time Stephen King has produced original content for an ongoing comic book project. The series will expand the saga of King’s epic hero, Roland Deschain, whose quest to save the Dark Tower is captured in
seven best-selling novels published over the course of twenty-five years. King’s unparalleled storytelling power will inform new stories that delve into the life and times of the young Roland, revealing the trials and conflicts that lead to the burden of destiny he must assume as a man, the last Gunslinger from a world that has moved on. The comics will work in conjunction with the novels, further supplementing and defining the saga’s mythology under the direction of the acclaimed author himself.
I can only say that because I'm actually fat. Its one of those unwritten rules. Only black people can say nigger...only fat people can say that fat people suck.
But...yeah...suck.
I've started this whole FAT REJECTION thing. I reject the image I see in my mirror, and goddamn it, I'm 24 years old. I'm supposed to be young and beautiful not look like..well...me.
So, you know what I did?
I put the fork down and stepped AWAY from the food.
I also started moving my ass.
And now my ass is going away. Slowly, but damnit, I'm 15 pounds lighter than I was, and I am currently wearing a pair of pants that woudln't have made it past my thighs about 3 months ago.
It kicks ass. I never knew how good it felt to actually LOOSE weight.
It feels much better than simply saying, "I'm on a diet." but secretly eating enough for me and about 4 other people when nobody was looking.
Now, I'm not going to say it was easy.
I always HATED people who would say, "Just dont eat." Its really NOT that easy.
I have an addiction to food.
You can't tell an alcoholic to JUST DONT DRINK and expect it to be that easy for them.
Its the same for really fat people who like their food a little too much.
Did you know that eating food and having sex create the same endorphins. Does this mean that fat people dont get laid enough? Its possible, but I doubt it.
I told my husband about the sex/food connection and now he asks me every five minutes if I feel hungery.
I get laid ALOT.
(please, save your brain cells and dont picture a fat chick having sex. I've SEEN me have sex. Its painful to witness and never washes off your retinas.)
And the point to all of the above was simply to say:
I'm fat. I dont like being fat. I'm getting unfat.
So, last night I got home from work and, doing the thing that is good and right, I completely ignored my husband and listened to 
It was the battle to end all battles in the street in front of my house today.
Fat people suck.
