So I don't post in this often because I post elsewhere and also because it's been kind of a combination of boring and depressing around these parts. I have a dumb infection and also I found out that my childhood cat, Maraska, is being put down on Friday. To say I am mopey is a gay fucking understatement

And I do not want to turn this into CRY JOURNAL so I'll probably use this journal as a daily HURR IMAGE dump

So today's wonderful image:

Bad news [Jun. 10th, 2008|04:58 pm]
We had to put Ernie to sleep today. I talked about why and suchhere and here. Long story short: He got cancer again, this time inside his intestines. It was inoperable and if we kept him around he'd starve to death because he was incapable of eating at all. He was very, very sick and such.

Read the other entries if you want more detailed info because right now I really don't feel up to writing again. We're both pretty depressed around here.

xposted: The No Spin Crane Project: Intro [May. 31st, 2008|08:32 pm]
Apologies to everyone that read this elsewhere:

Last month I mentioned getting this Bill O' Reilly book and asking what we should do with it. After much thought and consideration (and even more thought about compassion and humanity) I've decided to do something that I will either regret or love: I'm turning the book into folded paper cranes.

When I'm bored or when I'm fiddling with things, I'll usually lazily fold paper cranes out of scrap paper in my purse. I've made them out of candy wrappers, old reciepts, and even beer labels. I can make them of all sorts of different sizes, and I can pump them out pretty quick.

Out of a ton of contemplation and reading lately, I've come to realize that a lot of people whose ideas and words and influence I despise usually have serious problems. Instead of hating people I've come to not just pity but understand. So I was watching that clip of Bill O' Reilly flipping out during inside edition, and then some more videos of him fliping out on youtube and I realized that he has a serious anger problem. An unusual, very real anger problem.

And I feel BAD for him. I don't WANT him to be angry, I don't want anyone to be so angry. So I'm folding these cranes and sending them to him, not just as a symbol of goodwill but as a wish that maybe he'll find his own inner peace one day. I don't know if he'sbeen diagnosed or anything but I honestly think maybe he needs SOMETHING to help. Me writing an angry letter will accomplish nothing, while me being kind and telling him I hope he finds his own inner peace at least is kind. Who knows, maybe seeing that one of his enemies (I'm a liberal UU christian who is pro-choice and supports gay marriage) doesn't hate him but wishes him good luck he'll realize that we're not so bad.

I know in my heart that the only response I'll probably get is either a berating on air or a nice little return letter saying "THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST" and a brochure. But it doesn't hurt to try!

Current Crane total: 15

Spritle and Naughtiness [May. 19th, 2008|08:17 pm]


We found this cat today, dirty and with a terrible collar burn. His owners, who live beneath us, have left without a trace a while back and he has nowhere to go. He's been to the vet and got a clean bill of health, so he's staying here for a while. We tried to locate the owners by calling and even talking with the landlords, but they're straight up gone.

We also gave him his shots and checked him for a microchip (he didn't have one). He's already been fixed so that's a load off my mind.

Celiac Awareness Month [May. 14th, 2008|01:52 pm]
Happy Celiac Awareness Month.

For Celiac awareness month my body has decided that it would be awesome to be secretly "glutened" and spend a whole week in stomach pain and problems.


HOWEVER I shouldn't post this to bitch because I think Celiac Awareness is a sort of big deal. One in a hundred people have celiac, but the majority of sufferers are never diagnosed. Prisons don't offer Gluten-Free meals, and millions of homeless people who have no way of being diagnosed are getting sicker and sicker. Undiagnosed, Celiac is pretty much the worst thing ever. Undiagnosed Celiac can lead to cancer, severe (SEVERE) immune system problems, osteoperosis, type 1 diabetes, and any immune disorder linked to Malabsorption.

It usually takes people years to get properly diagnosed, and the stories of people taking so many sick days because of celiac symptoms and thusly losing their jobs are numerous. I'm one of them. I took too many sick days when I worked at GM because of what I know now as severe "gluten" attacks and because of the fact I always had the cold (because my body couldn't absorb vitamins).

Those hardest hit by lack of diagnoses are the poor and the homeless. When your food options are those given to you at the soup kitchen or the food bank, you can't be choosy. So many undiagnosed celiacs are being fed meals that just make them feel sicker and sicker because there's no other option. Children, especially children, are hurt by this the most since malabsorption as a child can lead to a host of horrible disorders and diseases.

Celiac awareness is pretty good on the internet and in middle/upperclass families. However, millions of people are suffering with it and have no idea. There's NO education programs for those who live below the poverty line, and some of the cheapest and easiest food to find in the world is filled with gluten. I was going to try to find a charity that donates gluten-free food to poor people but I can't find any.

Some thoughts on Ducktales [Apr. 1st, 2008|05:21 pm]
SURE Launchpad is REAL STUPID!

How many of the following statesments are true?

He knows how to fly a plane ( including jets- including one he couldn't SEE- the flight suit must of allowed it's pilot to see the invisible jet and Launchpad wasn't wearing it)

and YOU don't.

He knows how to fly a helicopter (which I hear is VERY difficult.) And was that huge helicopter in "Treasure of the Golden Suns" that Launchpad flew a VTOL? A Vertical Take- Off and Landing craft? Launchpad is also flying a VTOL in "Ali Bubba's Cave". If Launchpad knows how to fly one of those babies, no way is he anything remotely resembling stupid. Sorry, wrong number. Wrong area code. Wrong PLANET.)

and YOU don't.

He knows how to steer a speed-boat, pilot a sub, and fly a rocket ship.

And YOU don't.

And NOT ONE WORD ABOUT CRASHES DO I WANT TO HEAR BECAUSE I DON'T BELIEVE IT! We're talking about Launchpad McQuack , who once landed a plane on top of an train (Armstrong) , who in "Ducktales" comic # 5, landed a plane on an ordinary rooftop!!! Which is hard enough in a helicopter, let alone a plane!

And I'm supposed to believe he can't land safely anyplace he likes? SURE. Like the world's richest duck is going to hire a pilot to fly himself and his heirs around if said pilot ain't the best there is. OF COURSE!

He can fix a plane. He can even build a plane. Even Disney admits Launchpad build the Thunderquack.(And it only took him a year to do it. I suspect it takes Beoing a year to build a plane from the time it's designer gets the idea till the first one rolls off the assemble line.)And the Thunderquack is a very impressive (if stupid looking) piece of hardware. Not to mention the Sunchaser- which now hangs in a museum as the FIRST PLANE TO FLY TO AND FROM THE CENTER OF THE EARTH!!!! And how can you build a plane without first designing a plane? At least inside your own head, if not on blueprints? And using blueprints is probably easier.

SURE Launchpad is REAL STUPID! NOT!!!!!

By the way, Launchpad can sure think up jazzy names for planes, can't he? Like the Joyrider, his favorite bi-plane. And the preformentioned Sunchasher and Thunderquack. And you do realize it had to be Launchpad's evil counterpart from the Negaverse who designed the fancy chopper Negaduck flew? (Not to mention teaching him to fly silly thing!)Designing and building a helicopter has GOT to be harder- and require even more brains- than designing a plane. If Launchpad's "evil twin" has that kind of brains, so does my Launchpad.

What Launchpad is:

Disorganized- YES!

Scatter-brained- Definetely!

A little flakey- Yup.

And if you haven't figured out by now that I know what it's like to be disorganized, scatter-brained and a little flakey, BOY, are YOU slow on the uptake!

It's perfectly OK with me if YOU like any of these. Or all of them. You're entitled.

1. Pokemon, Yoogeoo, that sort of thing...You'd think with the flash cards and the names and dates and stuff to remember it would be too much like school. Kids love it. I don't get it.

2. The Simpsons. Wildly popular. Also vulgar, stupid and in very bad taste. Don't get it.

3. The x-men . Lots of human-bashing going around, I happen to be human. Lot of fuss about them being able to do things most people can't. My sister, Julia can touch her nose with her tongue: does that make her a mutant? Don't get it.

Stuff that is very popular that (in my humble opinion) was only funny ONCE:

Honey I shrunk the kids

Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Shriek

Just About Anybody

Judge Judy

50% of all marriages in the US end in divorce- or do they?



Judge Judy and others have quoted the much-quoted statistic that says that 50% of all marriages in the US end in divorce. I feel compelled to point out how misleading and meaningless this statistic COULD be.



I DO NOT KNOW THIS FOR A FACT, I'M JUST ASKING



DOES IT COUNT:



1. People who got married in 1990 or earlier. A group of people MOST LIKELY TO STAY MARRIED.



2. Immigrants who got married BEFORE moving to the US. A group of people MOST LIKELY TO STAY MARRIED.



3. People who live in US but got married elsewhere.

Descendant of Immigrants who got married in the 'old country' so friends and relatives left behide could attend.

Armed Service people who married overseas because that was where he/she/both were serving.

Anybody else who married outside of US because it was cheaper, easier, romantic, whatever.



5. Religious People, who because of their beliefs married without a license. (Which is probably illegal, but I bet the authorities look the other way, sometimes.)

A group of people MOST LIKELY TO STAY MARRIED.



6.People who live in small or mid-sized towns where the local county or district issued the license. SHOULD have been counted. Did the snobs doing this survey bother? I, a city dweller, know how most city dweller look down on people who live in more rural areas. A group of people MOST LIKELY TO STAY MARRIED.

DVDs vs. VCR Tapes

I have both a DVD player and a VCR.
I LIKE THE VCR BETTER! It records. I'd need a DVR to do that, and they're expensive and the discs are more expensives than tapes.

And I don't CARE what the DVD people say, the tapes last longer. I have 15, 16 year old tapes that work just fine. I have 15, 16 MONTH old discs with parts I can't watch due to skips.

Discs have some advantages. The DVDS are easy to mail (and cheaper), easier to store and carry.

I'm in no hurry to give up on my VCR, thank you very much.
