Jen Update

So much to tell and so little time...unfortunately this is gonna be a reader's digest version of events again. Sorry my personal computer time is so limited right now, you guys! My birthday weekend was a celebration that started at the club Thursday and continued at Club One Friday. Saturday night B and I had a date to see Clerks 2 which I really liked and definitely recommend. (Side note: How funny is it that I'm 37 this year and we saw a Kevin Smith film for my birthday date? LOL! I get to be a Kevin Smith joke for a whole year!!) Sunday we went to a party in the country and got to set off some of the fireworks we had left over from the 4th. I'm so blessed to have such good friends to celebrate with me, I felt nothing but loved throughout the whole celebration and am uber-grateful!!! Saturday morning of my birthday weekened B actually got out of bed before noon to get us some Tool tickets. We got *great* seats and I can't wait for the show!! :) The only sad thing duri

First Paycheck Coming Soon! :)

I've been working like a complete Trojan for weeks now and I'm finally going to get a little paycheck for some of my work! After the heartbreak of writing my first purchase offer week before last and having the seller decide to sell to a neighbor before the offer could even be presented, I finally got someone into a rental over the weekend. The commission is going to be laughably small but it's a commission nonetheless and I'm grateful for it. Here's hoping that I've now broken the seal and the money can start flowing into my household regularly now... :)

Message of Hope

Image
I believe in these difficult and mean-spirited times in which we live there needs to be a message of hope. Just a single image that speaks to us of love, harmony, peace and joy. An image that suggests the universal brotherhood of man. I have found that image, and I ask that all of you take a moment to be inspired by it. In other news, I know that I'm overdue for an update post and I'm trying to make time to get to it. Business is very busy right now so y'all wish me luck! Have a wonderful weekend everyone! {hugz}

Happy Birthday to Me!

37 years ago today I came into the world kicking and screaming. Teehee, how cute was I? In other news we will NOT be at the club tonite to celebrate since we got a far better invitation. We're heading to the country to hang out and shoot of the fireworks we didn't get to use on the 4th, WOOT! Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Which Tarot Card am I?

Image
You scored as III - The Empress . The Empress is a maternal symbol. She is the mother figure who loves, nurtures and protects. She will protect you, she will always be there when you are in trouble. When you fall over and graze your knee, the Empress will kiss it better. Yet she is not a weak figure. Her compassion is strength. If her children are threatened she will stop at nothing to protect them. If well aspected in a Tarot spread, the Empress can symbolise security, protection and unconditional love. If badly aspected it can represent over-protectiveness, fear of risk taking and refusal to face the real world. III - The Empress 88% VI: The Lovers 81% XIII: Death 81% IV - The Emperor 81% II - The High Priestess 75% 0 - The Fool 75% VIII - Strength 75% I - Magician 69% X - Wheel of Fortune 63% XI: Justice 63% XVI: The Tower 56% XIX: The Sun 50% XV: The Devil 44% Which Major Arcana Tarot Card Are You? created with QuizFarm.com

LOVE is what makes a marriage, not gender

Happily stolen from Da Jules myspace bulletin...this is a good one! 10 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong 01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning. 02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. 03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. 04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal. 05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. 06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be

What's My Personality Type

Here's a little quiz that Glen and Thia posted as bulletins on myspace. Teehee, nice to know I'm in the right job! LOL! You Are An ENTJ The Executive You are a natural leader - with confidence and strength that inspires others. Driven to succeed, you are always looking for ways to gain, power, knowledge, and expertise. Sometimes you aren't the most considerate person, especially to those who are a bit slow. You are not easily intimidated - and you have a commanding, awe-inspiring presence. You would make a great CEO, entrepreneur, or consultant. What's Your Personality Type?

New Viruses

Nice Way To Honor a Fallen Solider...

Thanks to Brian for bringing this to my attention. If they're going to let the guy put "Wiccan" on his dog tags then I don't understand why they won't allow a pentacle on his grave. *sigh* This country makes me sad sometimes, y'all check it out .

Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?

This one's happily stolen from Pixie Love's myspace bulletin. LOL! :) Why did the chicken cross the road? (New twist) DR. PHIL: The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must first deal with the problem on "THIS" side of the road before it goes after the problem on the "OTHER SIDE" of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his "CURRENT" problems before adding "NEW" problems. OPRAH: Well I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and not live his life like the rest of the chickens. GEORGE W BUSH: We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not.

Keep the Internet Unbiased!!!

Not sure if y'all have heard about this but everyone needs to take action immediately! Net Neutrality The Internet as we know it is facing a serious threat. There's a debate heating up in Washington, DC on something called "net neutrality" and it's a debate that's so important Google is asking you to get involved. We're asking you to take action to protect Internet freedom. In the next few days, the House of Representatives is going to vote on a bill that would fundamentally alter the Internet. That bill, and one that may come up for a key vote in the Senate in the next few weeks, would give the big phone and cable companies the power to pick and choose what you will be able to see and do on the Internet. http://www.google.com/help/netneutrality.html
