Hi guys, so if you don't see me on here, it may be that our internet has been cancelled. We have been really short on money and haven't paid the bill in three months, now the bill plus fees is like $150 dollars. I hate you bills. I don't thinkk my SG account will be cancelled because the automatic payment just went through and that should be good for....um what do i have it set up for....i think three months. But seeing as the only other internet sources in this town for us are:
1. my parents house
2. the public library
3. wifi in a coffeeshop
Mmmyeah, i just don't feel too comfortable looking at porn in any of those places, soooooo....i might not be posting much if we can't get the check in my the end of this week.
Strangely yesterday was actually fairly productive even though it involved too much TV watching. Dylana (my knitting buddy) came over, and for some reason we just watched bad TV the whole time, then watched some of the animations in animatrix. I don't know how credible this is, but apparently the Matrix idea was actually stolen from a woman named Sophia Stewart who submitted a Sci Fi story to the Wachowski brothers a while ago.....weird. I don't know if it is true or not, but seeing as how much the second and third movies suck, i would bet there is a big possibility. Anyway, still love the animatrix, and Dylana hadn't seen it before. We both got a great deal of knitting done....i can do knit one pearl one without looking now! Shut up, ok, that is a big accomplishment for me.
After Dylana left i tried to find my medieval babes CD so i could practice singing before my friend Laura showed up, but the CD is totally misplaced somewhere. Grrr! So by the time Laura got here I hadn't practiced since i didn't have the lyrics (i can't memorize them, they are in latin). So we just watched Cabaret instead. Another interesting factoid: did you know Liza Minelli is allegedy a violent rapist? Yeah, neither did i until we watched Cabaret and greg mentioned he'd read the article on plastic.com. Weirdness. Some hollywood Divas really really go over the top, and I knew Liza Minelli was crazy anyway, so....yeah.
While looking for the article on Liza Minelli i also came across this article which is pretty creepy......a rape victim was watching the Blind Date TV show and her assailant was one of the daters on the show.....yuck.
Damnit news! So many random sick things happen out there!
So yeah, not to much has been happening with me....just reading crazy news today, then i am off to work. I have almost finished one scarf, if i can pick up the pace i might have more than one present finished for people before christmas! We'll see.
Okay....bye!

Just make late-presents, but don't tell people they're late.. Just give them out randomly when they're finished! And then people will feel extra-special. I always end up giving my gifts waaaaaaay early because I'm so terrible at keeping secrets so the actual day is pretty irrelevent, anyways
Jason had an Ethiopian friend a long time ago.. I think that's how he picked it up.. *shrug* But I can't keep up with him.. Everytime I turn around he is studying some other language.. He has studied (at some point): French, mandarin chinese, Czech, Russian, Italian, Swahili, Spanish (which he is fluent in), German, I taught him some American Sign Language.. And now he wants to learn Arabic
*huuuuuugalugga choo choo*
