Merry December!

Thursday, December 2nd, 2004

It is officially the month of Christmas and we should all celebrate! I am getting very depressed at work from having to suppress my Christmas spirit for 7 hours a day. Every day that it is not blustering death outside I plan to come home and dance around with my Christmas lights on my lunch break.

Some jerk has bombed my website with comments about some texas party poker crap. Ummm, die please. There are now about 650 comments (mostly all in my old entries) but they are pissing me off. And moveable type is not set up to mass delete comments. You have to click on each one to delete it. And this faggot or this faggot program, or whatever is doing it has been doing so since November 30th. And has done it every day. So … I assume that it is going to continue until I die. AND, every single comment has some random different IP address, so I can’t even use the “block IP address” feature. Any suggestions? Please let me know.

So, I’m sure I have lots to talk about. First I will discuss the wonderful luncheon I went to yesterday. Please read my previous entry if you do not know what I am talking about because I do not feel like repeating myself. Anyways, it was quite interesting. Surprisingly all of the women were nice and this woman’s house was insane. The house itself wasn’t spectacular. I was expecting some ornate mansion, but it was just your typical ranch-style home, and of course it was completely remodeled and landscaped to look really awesome. The inside looked like an interior decorator’s dream. It was filled with art. Art, sculptures, statues, everywhere. Plush carpet, glass tables with weird balls underneath. It was really nice, and the style was very modern. I liked the house very much. It was a little too much in some places, but what I liked about it was that everything was “cute”, not that contemporary art crap … like cool modern-hip stuff. Like the Sims.

After the lunch-deal a co-worker and I did some grocery shopping and then we went to this place that is kind of like bath and body works, but not really … and somehow I got free nail polish because she signed me up for the nail polish club. I hate nail-polish by the way and I really really tried to not get it, but she was like “you can’t pass up free stuff!” But it is red, so maybe I can use it for one of my Christmas arts and crafts projects. So after wasting time before going back to work, I went back to work and wanted to die. I hate being so busy all the time.

I got a credit-card again without even applying. Unless I have a split personality or I just forget that I do things sometimes. I don’t trust myself with credit cards, so I don’t have any. I used to but I maxed them all out and was a jobless college student that couldn’t even make my minimum payments on them. Eventually the finance charges caused them to get maxed out, and I started racking up these over-limit charges and I was freaking out. I’m really not good at finances … figures that I would have a degree in Finance! Anyways, my days of stupidity are hopefully over. I’ve paid most of them off, and I have a balance on one of them, but its not much. I cut the cards into tiny pieces and forced myself to un-memorize the card numbers. I still didn’t trust myself so I called them up and cancelled the cards.

Anyways, I am going to get this card because the interest rate is pretty low and its a Visa. I will only use it for emergencies, honestly. And I’m pretty lucky that I didn’t get myself into a lot of trouble and ruin my credit. Credit cards are EVIL! Attention college freshmen: do not sign up for credit cards to get free t-shirts. The false sense of having money only lasts for a small amount of time until you realize you have to pay it back. And the shirts are really ugly. However, Debit cards are really handy … they are practically like credit cards except you can’t spend more than you have. Definitely the best invention of the century!
