In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

5{up early because I had to take a CPR class for work. It was actually the most entertaining CPR class I've ever taken. Two of the piercers pierced one of the dummies. Then it was raining and I walked all over the place. Yesterday I didn't wear very good shoes and ended up walking a lot so now my feet are unhappy.

And now I must leave on a totally unrelated subject.

Ach, but now I'm back to say that the USA's soccer team has really made me proud. Way to go, boys.

Oh, so tired.

At least Korea beat Portugal. I bet they're pretty confused...

Working is hard work. At least I only have to work 7 hours tomorrow instead of 8. *phew*

I sure like being a member of this site. All y'all are so nice!

Yay! England is still in. How I love them so....

Today was too hot. My corset made me feel like I was wrapped in a heating pad. Ugh. So now I have a headache and am quite uncomfortable.

We decided that the best way to spend days like today is to sit in the bathtub filled with ice water, a PS2 with a plastic bag over the controller, and a six-pack floating in the tub... but I had to work. Mark made me run and buy smokes for him over at the Texaco, but he didn't give me enough money. I only had $7 and they were 50 cents more. $7.50 for a pack of smokes!! Luckily right before I got to the counter a boy was marveling at my double septum... so he gave me the extra 50 cents. What a nice boy. Mark owes him.

Poland vs. USA is tonight... um, tomorrow morning at like, 4... I can't wait to watch it! Thank goodness for Tivo........

Yes! England rules! Li'l Michael Owen is such a cutie. I almost felt bad for a sec that Nigeria was in the group of death. Sorta. I watched Paraguay play today, and that was really cool. It was exciting.

So... um... I hope today I get to work on the neo geo cabinet we got because it's just sitting around wasting space until we get a new monitor in there. You know, one that doesn't make sparks when you plug it in.

I sure do love to watch the world cup! It's really too bad that France is out; had Zidane not been injured they might have beaten Senegal... I hope England or Argentina wins.

I got my septum pierced again today! It's sooo pretty.

Arg.

Oh, wow. I can't wait to be a suicide girl.......
