Word to “freezing rain”

So I got today as well as yesterday off from school. Thank goodness. I’m not sure if I could have handled going to school the entire week. All my teachers were trying to make me do actual work and learn stuff. Pffft. Who do they think they are?

I redesigned Under My Thumb today. The blue color of the last layout was starting to make me puke, so I’m glad I can stomach this new layout. I also added 1 new wallpaper today. And that’s about it for site updates.


Oh, and I’m about to do a plug. I never do plugs, because I find them self-serving in nature, but it’s for a fansite, and I figured it wouldn’t qualify as one. But anywho, I just love Dullsville. This site just makes me laugh!

Word to Shakira

New layout! New layout! New layout! This is version 50, which just proves that I have wayyyyyy tooooo much time on my hands. Well, here’s to “Shakira Reprise.” Whooooopeeeeee. I haven’t really done anything else today besides this new layout. I have been praying awfully hard for snow. Tomorrow at school won’t be so bad, but a snow day would sure be nice.


My father was on the 6:00 news this evening. He was interviewed because he’s the treasurer of the Band Boosters (for my marching band), and it’s making news now that my band’s trip to Chicago has been cancelled. They even went to my friend Julianne’s house and interviewed her as well. I taped it and everything. And there were like a billion stories on before hand, and I kept shouting “Who cares?” My parents thought it was pretty funny.


I plan on phoning the sprinkle company tomorrow, as I have been working hard on this layout today. I will give you an update on what the comment hotline tells me. But for the time being I will just have to be satisfied with my boring multi-colored sprinkles. No blue. No purple. No indigo. No joy.

Word to sprinkles, part 2

So I tried to phone the company that made the sprinkles. They had a number on the sprinkle package for customer comments. When I called I got their machine which gave me some crap about not being able to take my call because it wasn’t “office hours.” Pffffffttttt. I know what really happened. They saw my name on the caller id and put the machine on so they wouldn’t have to own up to the complete mistake they made in naming their product. Well, I’ll call later this week during their “office hours.” I’m not letting them get away with this. They will pay.


I added new members to More Hunk, Neon, and Turn Me On.

Word to sprinkles

So I was making some sugar cookies last night. And I decided to decorate them with some frosting and sprinkles. As I was sprinkling the “rainbow sprinkles” onto the frosting, I noticed that the only colors in the mix were white, yellow, orange, red, pink, and green. That hardly qualifies as a rainbow. Maybe it could fit into the multi-color category, but never rainbow. I was pretty upset to find the sprinkle company so misleading about the contents of their product. I should write an angry letter.

Well, I just added some new wallpapers to Under My Thumb, and I’m off to do a whole lotta work on The Buffy Bash.

Word to straws

Well, I got a good response about the DVD thing. I agree about Seinfeld, Roswell, Growing Pains, MTV Cribs, & Saved by the Bell. Melrose Place? What-ever. Sorry Auntie Penny, but I was never an MP fan.


I was just watching the beginning of “Are You Hot?” a show whose core concept baffles me to begin with. And then when they announced the people for the semi-finals, the host was like “Congratulations, you’re hot!” or “I’m sorry, you’re not hot enough.” And during the interviews they would write “not hot enough” under the people who didn’t advance. Ahahahahaha. I’m sorry, but you’re just not hot enough!

So Trista picked Ryan and Evan picked Zora. Why can’t the girls on these shows ever have normal names? Trista, Zora, Helene, Heidi (ick!). And I thought my name was weird. Well, it used to be very rare to be named Emma, and somebody thought it was cool and now all the new little girls (and some boys… *snicker*…) are being named Emma. When I’m a mother and I’m driving all my daughter\son’s friends around, they’re all going to be named Emma and I will get very, very confused.

Random stuff….. I have somewhat sensitive teeth. I try to drink something ice cold or have a hot soup, and it’s all bad. So straws are my friends. And we had been out of straws for quite some time. To my surprise I came home today to find like a billion straws in the cabinet. No more dental pain. Thank you mom!
