Happy Birthday Mom

Happy birthday Mom. Yes, it is my mother's birthday today. I am waiting for dinner which was the main reason why I posted today. I did not watch the Superbowl today because I was preoccupied with other things like presents, and spending time with Mom. I am now speechless about what I want to say now that I am typing on my computer. I'm having a sinus headache that due to other things may also be stress related. Simply speaking, there are some problems within my extended family, but today is my mother's birthday and I want to focus on positive things today. I want to forget that my grandmother isn't home tonight. I want to not go into detail about my aunt from India's phone call while I was blogging earlier.

I have just overheard that we (the four of us plus my visiting grand-aunt & my grandmother) will go downtown another night to have the birthday dinner. Now if I could write something positive about my day. I spent my morning and early afternoon elsewhere due to a pre-arranged training session. I didn't get home until after 4 p.m. after my sister, my dad, and I picked up my mom's ice cream cake from Dairy Queen. This year we decided to save money are give birthday cards from two senders instead of one sender each. My dad and sister gave a card which co-incidentally matched the birthday cake. I brought the card from my grandmother and myself a day before them. I always look for humourous cards, and prefer the joke over the other card's little message.

My card's message:
(FRONT COVER - DRAWING OF RED SPORTS CAR IN MOTION)
"I was going to GIVE YOU a Sports Car,"
(DRAWING OF WAVES, A PALM TREE, & SUN)
"a TRIP to Hawaii,"
(DRAWING TWO DOLLAR BILLS)
"and $500 in CASH for YOUR BIRTHDAY."
(INSIDE CARD)
"... but every bottle cap
I checked said,
'sorry, play again.'"
(DOUBLE SPACE)
"Oh well ...
Happy Birthday, Anyway."
(BACK COVER - DRAWING OF A GOLD RING/CIRCULAR OBJECT WITH HAPPY BIRTHDAY WRITTEN ON IT)

Our dinner plans have been finalized for this evening. My dad would like to have leftovers, while the other three of us have phoned in an take-out order at White Spot. All three of us are having our favourite items from their express menu - my sister is having English-style fish and chips combo. My mom will be having a Monty Mushroom burger and fries, and I'll enjoy a B.C. burger combo. My sister and I are substituting our soft drinks for milkshakes (chocolate and butterscotch respectively). My favourite White Spot milkshake isn't on their take out menu but I'll settle for butterscotch.

Partial update

Hello gentle reader,

I am sorry for not having updated regularly since last year. I however appreciate the emails I have received earlier this year from a couple other bloggers who have read mine despite my hiatus. I was on vacation from May 25, 2005 until August 4, 2005 when I overseas and visited Kazakhstan and India. I may say more later if anyone wants me to describe how it went. Both are different countries, and I did enjoy being in India a slight bit more. I am on my sister's computer currently and may switch computers shortly. I'm on her computer because mine lacks speakers and I'm listening to Windows Media Player. Right now I'm listening to Aerosmith's "Blind Man," which I had saved onto my computer from a CD of mine last May in order to put on my MP3 player as a playlist to use on my vacation. That song has ended and "Sweet Emotion" has started. I'm going to turn on my computer after publishing this because my sister's computer settings don't load some webpages well as mine (including published versions of my blog). She might be kicking me off anyway soon, so I'll be going and will update later today.

Wasting away (not literally)

Hmm, a post I started in June 2004. I forgot why I didn't post it then considering I had opportunities in 2005. Hmmm. I was a few days before the mess broke out off-simm on SB10, which I think maybe reason enough. I was pretty depressed and out of it last December/January. Please don't comment on those posts I wrote last December, which are still here - I regret writing them.

Anyways, this post was from better times before the mess with Anne-Marie broke out on SB10. I have SB10's site linked to this blog, incase you are just accidentally viewing my blog and don't know what it is.

Warning ... the following has been sitting in my hotmail draft section of my account. The last part is the most recent and so it will be posted last.

You Are Totally a Lesbian


Someone would have to be blind and deaf to miss out on the fact that you are a lesbian.

You've been checking out women for so long that you've gotten it down to a science.

You love tits and legs and smarts.

You enjoy sex with ladies, from kissing to banging to eating them out.

You hope to settle down with a woman and make a vow with her for life.

You are most worked up about the lack of a legitimate gay marriage.

Since men are not your thing, legal marriage is a difficult opinion.

You long to live in a lesbian utopia!
