and a good time was had by all

I love Serchen Morris. When warren flaked, heh, Serchen came through for me. The party was good. The cheesecake was excellent and I'm not a cheeseake fan. I love Greg's friends, they always make great conversation. Even saw Melissa, her son wasn't with her though. I missed Stacy, she left before I arrived.

I should be able to bring my linux box to work on Saturday. I'm copying stuff to it now, which reminds me, I have tons of textures and brushes to sort. Gonna take forever. Gonna try just grab a tut at random and make something.

I feel like sushi, gotta call David and see if we ca go to East this week. Ice cream tempura!

party over there

well, it's more of a get together. It's Greg's birthday and K is throwing him a party. There's gonna be cake and stuff and people I havent seen in awhile.

Went shopping yesterday, got me a blue jeans and two sneakers, spent entirely too much money but I really love the sneakers.

Rog came by and got my samba working and multimedia. Now I gotta configure it to use my headphones. Cuz Suse unlike Ubuntu doesnt just auto detect and uses my headphones, it detects it but have to manually switch it or something. So I'm gonna do that now.

ugh

my day was just fine until I went to Island Grill, ordered the chicken sandwich instead of the jerk burger and didn't notice till it was too late to change it. I swear the bitches switched the menu up. 7 is the jerk burger not damn chicken sandwich. So I had dumbass chicken sandwich and I hated every bite, ugh!

Me have a ni' night to go to later. One of the taxi men was killed and they're having his ni' night tonight. Can dust off mi domino skills, heh. FYI ni' night(nine night) is a funeral tradition. For nine nights after a person dies, friends and family gather and have a wake. The last night (ninth night) is the biggest and depending on where you are, what is done varies. Can read more at the Wiki. Any questions feel free to ask.

just one of those days

all I wanna do is call in sick and spend the day in bed. It's rainy outside and I really want a dog.

Wednesday, October 25, 2006

lunch was good!

SO I came to work as Roget, Greg and Romaine were going for lunch and I went along for lasagna and got a free lunch :) It was cool hanging with the guys, I missed that, not with these guys but with my guy friends that are all scattered right now.

I can't believe it's almost November and the sun is still bitching! So glad for the bag juice vendors in HWT.

So now I'm at work and all I wanna do is sleep, nothing new there. Haha.

Firefox 2 is out but I'm keeping my wait-and-see attitude, I'ma wait for 2.1 when all the new bugs get reported and dealt with.

Tuesday, October 24, 2006

today

I had the best slice of bread pudding I've had in ages :D

Monday, October 23, 2006

day off wasted!!

just ugh! Greg asks me for help comes over from last night and takes over my comp. Why do people ask for help and then ignore it? Maybe our writing styles are just different but a lot of things he did was just repetitive to me and the flow was spastic. And because this paper took all damn I didn't get to go to RGD and take care of my dad's BC or get any work on Samba, just fucking great.

I really wanna bring my Linux box back to work but I wanna copy back my music and stuff to it first and this is really pissing me off! And dumbass ssh doesn't work either, boo.

Anyhoo, time to go tinker with the puter..

Love is my Religion

Had a very painful conversation last night which spawned my previous post and the current title. Suprisingly I woke up this morning feeling a whole lot better. Better and done. It's the end of an era folks and all that jazz. Watev.

I want a snake and/or dog but mostly a snake. So I'm gonna hit up Google do some snakes as pets reserch and see what happens.

I love my nails :) Theyre getting long again. Next time I'm gonna get acrylic with glitter in it.

heh

love will make you a hypocrite

not a bad night

So I went to Sovereign to get my jerk burger and run into K, Greg and Lexi and ate with them. They were telling me about some UWI professor that got kidnapped and robbed. Apparently he's also a radio personality and that's why they didn't kill him. We also saw Diana King, she looks lighter and rounder than the last time I saw her but she still looks good.

I left to meet up with Warren and Noel, they were watching Fearless but I watched Haven nd it was good. I had some laughs and Orlando was watchable. Didnt see as much of Zoe as I wouldve liked but I still loved it. Diff people with their mini dramas that sorta come together but not really. Good movie.

Me a starve!

I want Island Grill sooooooooo bad! I wanta Jerk Burger, fries and bammy :) Rog is taking forever to get here, bugger!

I only have oreos to munch on meanwhile. :(

An accident!

So I'm coming home and there's traffic going into Garveymeade, I thought it was because of the rain and potholes...nope. A minibus ran into the back of a parked truck. I highly doubt anyone in the front survived. Gotta ask questions tomorrow, find out what happened.

exercise is an eye opener

"woke up" this morning and after much debaing called Greg and slept till he came. I didn't wanna wake up and go back to sleep again, trying to break the habit. Greg decided to do the 8 Minute Stretch as well, not a bad idea after the first go through of Abs I was wide awake, even felt like running but I didn't :P

Rog helped me mount my drives last night and theyre all up and running. Sent him to buy the DVD burner and he bought a DVD rom drive, had to go back and exchange it.

I'm hoping to go see Haven tomorrow, I've been hearing about it from early this year if not last year, hopefully it's good. David wants to go see Crank or something, hmm.

Yay! I'm not as broke as I thought I was :)
but I will be soon

Thursday, October 19, 2006

on the wagon, off the wagon

haha, slept through the alarm today, that's a first. means extra laps tomorrow, blech.

Finally decided on the burner, so I asked Rog to pick me up one and bring it to me later, hopefully he got to the store before it closed.

Still haven't mounted my drives yet but I can do it tonight or tomorrow morning. Then I can start on Samba. I'm liking Suse, it more user friendly than I expected, dare I say, even more so than Ubuntu. One prob though is when I install the TabMix Plus Firefox plugin, had some probs with it so I had it uninstalled :( But I'm gonna try again when I get home, that plugin is muy useful.

I got my nails done! I chose a nice purple colour, I was gonna choose black but its black and I wanted color. Stopped by Captain's and got some donuts, plain and coconut. Today was muy cloudy and by the time I got to work I was craving Milo and there was none, totally craptastic.

I wanna sleep sooooooo bad! I think I'm going straight to bed once I get home.

Wednesday, October 18, 2006

ok, I did it

I installed Suse 10.1 and it installed just fine, except I'm an idjit that saved my fstab to a drive so no I gotta do my fstab all over again AND my screen is too much to the right but I'll tinker with it when I get home. I'm definately getting a dvd drive well, I'm still not sure if I'm gonna go ahead and get the burner, if I can get the extra RAM then yeah but PC133 RAM aint gonna be easy to find.

I finally went running today, no exercise but I ran.

My head hurts and I think it's cuz I stayed up installing Suse and not sleep after my run as usual. But Greg is working with me tonight so me ago get some sleep.

Speaking of work, oh lawd, it's primary school all over again. Who call up whofa name, who nah chat to who, I'm so glad the incindiary event happened on my day off. So I'm out of this.

Yay! One of my fave boards is still down but we've created a temp board in the meantime and while some folks are still MIA most of my faves are there so I'm good.

Tuesday, October 17, 2006

I need to get laid

or I could just need to get up off my ass and run in the morning. Nooooo I didn't run this morning, Greg says his phone was locked in the car and I'm not about to run by myself.

Yay! Jaz has been released from the hospital :) I'm glad she's better and out.

I'm wondering if I should just get a new DVD drive for my linux box or get a DVD burner. If I get the burner I'll need more RAM. Bah! cba

A friend(acquaintance is a better word) is getting divorced, she came over to tell me all about it, like I care. I still remember last year when she was at my house flashing her ring in my face talking shit about my relationship with Rog just cuz she's newly married. In fact she's lucky I didn't laugh in her face. Even though Rog and I are no longer together and me periodically wanting to run him over(he deserves it and he knows this) at least we're not at each other's throats. You don't come show off and denigrate my relaionship in the process and turn around mourn your failed relationship and expect me to be all, "There, there, he's an asshole." Fact is you both fucked up. But ofcourse I'm not married so you ignored anything I said. Suck it up.

Speaking of which, I dreamt I got married some days ago. Long story short, I started a business same time my hubby started his, business got to a point where it was in our interests to merge and we did. Working together, we fell in love and got married. All nice and trite, watev.

Monday, October 16, 2006

finally

washed my hair, took me all damn day but yeah, it's clean.

Woke up with terrible gas, guess its cuz I ate so badly yesterday but I woke up with this sharp pain in my stomach drank several cups of tea to no avail. I just ate something so I should be good.

I'm currently downloading Suse 10.1, bye bye Ubuntu, it's been fun but I feel for something new. I may do it Wednesday, maybe I should wait for the weekend but who knows, I may even do it tonight.

work tomorrow :( I was just getting used to not going there but I gotta go back, got bills to pay.

Nap time!

Sunday, October 15, 2006

home!

spent the day at the hospital. Got some sleep, saw Stevie. Didn't write or take pics but I did read Maximum PC. Then I went by David's for dinner and poker. He lent me Devil Wears Prada, the book. I'll start reading it tomorrow.

Tomorrow I shall finally wash my hair and cornrow it. Time is too damn hot for twists. Can't believe it's October and it's HOT!

Why oh why is there a Santa Clause 3? Were the first two that successful? Jeez!

Saturday, October 14, 2006

hospital holiday

Jackie calls today to say she has to go back home for work so she wants me to stay with Jazz. So my Sunday of sleep and computer tinkering is gone. I'm gonna take my digicam and notebook to amuse myself.

Went to Cafe Aubergine today, food was good. I had Tortellini something with blue cream cheese, greatness! Then I had roasted duck something, not as great as the appetizer but still good. Great service but the room was a bit cramped. And the table next to us had a local sports caster.

OK, I'm gonna start saving for my laptop next month, I wanted to this month but Jazz in the hospital and clothes shopping, screwed that up. I hope there's no $$$ surprises next month.

Friday, October 13, 2006

I'm late

I just realized today was Friday 13th. Nothing bad happened but I wonder where the superstition came from?

sleep...does a body good

skipped running this morning in favour of sleep and I'm glad I did, I really needed it. Felt soooooo much better when I woke up this morning. But I'm definitely running tomorrow. I need to buy some clothes and I don't wanna but them now and they cant fit later.

Apparently Portmore has a dog breeders association and it's near me. I hear they meet on Sundays so I may try to check them out one day.

I think I may get into the pet business. I really think it could be good for me. People are now more than ever into pets and they don't mind spending on them. So I'm gonna talk to some owners see what stuff they get or want and how they usually get it.

THREE DAY WEEKEND! Tomorrow is my Saturday off and Monday is Hero's Day so I've got three days of NOOOOOO work! What to do, what to do.

I was thinking of using my Vox account as a sort of photo blog. I may get a new digicam, a smaller one, one that's easier to carry around than my current one. Got the idea from this great subscription service Photojojo, anyone with any photography interest should check it out, great ideas, tips and tricks.

Thursday, October 12, 2006

:(

apparently pneumonia can spread, I didn't know that. Jazz's is. Her side now hurts when she coughs and she may have gall stones.

the damn zip on my fave blue jeans has gone bad or watever you call zips that cant zip. Good thing I wore a long shirt today.

lol, some ppl tried to scam me today, some 3 card people. I'm walking by and this lady grabs my hand and is like she's betting $500 on me and some guy points my finger to the right card and they shove the $500 in my hand, then homeboy is all like, I'm betting $1000 dollars that you pick the right one. And me like an idiot, instead of walking away with the $500, I put it on the table and left. Prolly was fake anyways.

wat is it with some men and their love for many women and aversion to condoms? asses!

Yay! Got my health card! Doc & dentist time!

Wednesday, October 11, 2006

I is sore!

you know that shit they say about pushing yourself when you're working out? Tried it this morning when I was running, wanted to stop but I pushed myself, felt good for a coupla seconds then all I knew I was HURT! My legs, my chest it hurt to breathe, I about crumpled right there. And the sick part is I feel real proud of myself. Did the same with the 8 minute abs crap, kept up better this time, now I can't laugh cuz it hurts but it shall pass.

Hey David, had a weird dream last night. I dreamt that after we left the hospital we went back to your place and your mom was shouting for you and you hid me under your bed(which was higher). She came into your room, which was smaller, and I moved back and she saw me, when I came out turns out she was the lady from Kung Fu Hustle, the landlady that smoked, yes she was smoking. Totally weird dream. She was bitching about the ice, something about water and cost and stuff, don't remember what happened after.

Stayed with Jazz for a bit today, I was worried at first cuz her breakfast and lunch were there not eaten but they said she has an ultrasound to do so she shouldn't. There was this brat in the bed next to hers. Her grandma was running behind that out-of-order kid like she was her slave. So sad.

It's nap time! I'm hella tired, laters!

Tuesday, October 10, 2006

fraking google!

they've totally google-ized writely.com aka made it UGLY! My inspiration, the little I have, can't flow there! I'm moving ALL my documents to ZohoWriter. Ugh! Just nasty! Now I gotta copy and paste ALL my stuff. ZW better not sell out to google too.

still on the wagon

lol, I know it's just been day two but I know you're all just hanging by a thread wanna know if I'm still on. OK, we only exercised this morning cuz I have work @ 12 not two but it was ugh! We decided to do the 8 Minute Abs work out and that was hard. Has anyone seen those? They start like porn, I'm serious, the scenic shot, the music! Not kidding.

I'm hungry, today was my first day of wearing the heels so I didn't stop and get lunch today, I just came straight to work. I shoulda gotten some fruits, guineps are going outta season soon and june plums too, so I'm gonna grab a bunch tomorrow.

Oh yeah, Nich's computer, this is what he did, I like it:

reinforcement and inspiration

today's shopping trip reinforced my hatred for shopping but also was inspiration for me to stay on the running wagon. I walked the entire mall and then some cuz I couldn't find pants to go over my Bhudda belly, not cute!

Anyhoo went to the hospital and glad to say Jazz is way better. She has a slight fever but she's up and about more, she's eating AND she's chatty. If you know Jazz you know if she's chatty she's fine or on her way to fine.

I don't think I got watever message my dream was sending me cuz now all I keep thinking about is getting a snake.

back on the wagon

did both running and exercising today. We're going to have to find a new field to run cuz the grass on the current one is getting too much and my skin and my grass don't mix. Besides it's becoming popular with other people who just get in our way. Esp when we do some of Greg's football running exercises and they're all like, "Can we join?" and then slow us down cuz they can't follow simple instructions.

Well, it's shopping day, eewwww. I don't like shopping. It's all kinds of annoying.

Sunday, October 08, 2006

not so bad after all

Went to the hospital last night. The ward looks way better than last time I was there they even have better TVs. Jazz still looks tiny but she didn't look as bad as last time. They still don't know when she can go home cuz she still has a fever and she was breathing hard. (She's in for pneumonia if Ive forgot to mention that) . I'm going to see her again tomorrow, gonna pick her up a book or something to entertain herself.

Came home to a BSOD last night, fun times. Then wen I tried to reboot it wasn't detecting my boot drive. SO I said fuck it and turned it off. Upside, I figured out how to use google talk in gaim, so when I'm in linux I can talk to Nich. WHich reminds me, he sent me pics of his computer that he built, way cool, I'll post them Tuesday when I get back to school. Anyhoo, windows box(the one that my friends lurve) is up and running, its a dainty bitch, I had to go to the hardware store and get compressed air so it will boot again meanstwhile my old comp, the Gateway that they ragged on has enough dust in it that some water and seeds and I'll have a nice little garden.

LOL, I'd also like to thank my friend Larry(his blog is hilarious BTW) for turning me onto Robyn, her last album, self titled, is real catchy pop. I got it cuz he was raving about Konichiwa Bitches, with lyrics like: I'm so very hot that when I rob your mansion you ain't call the cops, you call the fire station how can you go wrong?

45 years

This couple came in today about setting up email on a new laptop. Theyre one of the cutest couples ever! They're English, came here for three years, forty two years ago. :) Theyve been married for forty five years. Apparently they've known each other for ages, since they were 12 cuz they went to school together. It was real great seeing them.

Gotta visit my cousin in the hospital after work. She has pneumonia and I'm sooo not looking forward to it. Normally she looks real fragile and she looks worse when she's sick(she has sickle cell) It breaks my heart everytime. I asked Rog to go with me cuz I really don't wanna go by myself.

Friday, October 06, 2006

weird dream

So I'm in my home and the reason I know it's my home is cuz it feels like it. Although there's some stuff from my home that was in my dream ome it was different. Like higher walls and they were blue. Anyhoo, I apparently had lotsa pets. I had dogs that were outside playing but I was inside with my monkey, remember that monkey Ross had on Friends?, like that. There was another one but I can't remember what it was. So Rog and I were feeding the monkey and unkown animal when mom comes in and is like, "You better feed that damn snake!" And I'm like yeah. So I gave Rog this other unkown animal and I'm like feed the snake while I'm scared and leaving the room. Rog goes to feed him like no big deal. So I come back in the room and there's this huge green snake with this lump sliding slowly down. Rog is like, "I didn't know you had a snake" SO I tell him my aunt gave him to me, she says he's not poisonous but he can squeeze ya to death." So Rog was like, "Help me put him back in his case(it was a huge empty aquarium)" and I'm like, "Neggy". So I'm asking Rog, if he knew anyone that would like to have a snake and he's like maybe. Then the snake starts crawling up the wall and I'm shouting at Rog to put him back in his case, and he's like chill, he's just exercising. So I leave the room, when I come back, the snake is all coiled neatly in the middle of the room. And I'm like put him back now then, and he's like help me, he's heavy. So I reluctantly help him but while doing it we notice that the snake was dead and I'm all like what you do to my snake? and he's like, Nothing! And I just start bawling, which is weird cuz I don't think I liked the snake. And the monkey s if outta nowhere starts laughing. Then my alarm went off for my run, weirdness!

more suckage

I need someone to call and talk about nothing with. Not having one fucking sucks.

And it's the second night of back 2 bak id10t calls. This is not a good week.

Wednesday, October 04, 2006

another shitty day

c&w = incompetent assholes
netkyaad = id10t magnet


Anwyas I tink I need to see a dermatologist. my ears and scalp are peeling. My ears were peeling, I thought it was the new earring so I stopped wearing them, same thing. And it's not sunburn, same for my scalp, it's not dandruff, it looks different.

I didn't know Spike Lee directed Summer of Sam. He should do another movie.

which reminds me, I need to check out my medical insurance when I go to work tomorrow.

Tuesday, October 03, 2006

I was soooo tired today

but me neva sleep even though the calls were few and far between.

Have to go shopping for work shoes and pants, maybe some shirts but I def need shoes and black pants. Who knows I may just get a skirt too.

I didn't get to catch up on my shows today. Gonna try watch,
Smith, Venture Bros and Dexter tomorrow.

Some people truly do not deserve to have kids. I wish I was in a better place financially so I could take my cousin away from her dumbass selfish mother my aunt.

Monday, October 02, 2006

I cried today

because of this. Normally news like that just makes me sad and a little depressed. I think what really got me was that the girls he killed, what they went through before they died. Watching the boys being let go and some other people, being tied up and wondering what's gonna happen to them. And thn he kills himself AFTER! Why they never do that first is beyond me. And what's really upsetting is that if the report on ABC is right this is some sort of twenty year old revenge. WTF?

Sunday, October 01, 2006

Yay!

Got paid! They havent done the bank switch yet so I'm good. I can get on that UPS.

I did nothing of what I had planned for today, converting vids, sorting brushes and textures. Went a mile and nowhere with Samba. I can see my linux box in windows but I can't access it. I think I should add the network password, I vaguely remember doing it last time but when I do it now I cant see the linux box. this is tre annoying.

I swear, I'm gonna get dreadlocks. I hate combing my hair! I think I'm gonna twist it now, it's been in canerows for months, time for a change.

Raasclaat cable is out and I can't see Dexter :( Gonna have to grab the torrent. I really hope it doesn't disappoint.

Oooh! Just went on the road with a friend. Followed Gregory to Spanish town to drop off some of his friends. He needed a licensed(sp) driver, [shut up David], with him. It was OK, but I wasn't really feeling his friends. When I came back Bushy was on my wall, so I stayed with him and a hol' a reason. It was good, haven't done that in ages. Anyhoo, snack time.
