...Perhaps. I will hopefully find out tomorrow. I signed up with a Temp/placement company today. They may have a job for me hopefully I'll find out tomorrow. So cross your fingers it works out.
I still hate my job now. I really want to get out of there. It just drains a person.

Terri Schiavo...wow
This is being blogged simply so I can say...
oh...my...god
to this quote
"Many of those supporters are making parallels between Ms. Schiavo and Jesus, describing "the passion of Terri" as Easter approaches."
That is at the end of the article on page 2. My goodness now people (and I'm assuming it's random supporters of Terri not anyone in politics or the media) are comparing this woman who has been braindead for the past 8 years to Jesus the Son of God. Wow that's impressive to say the least. So if the tube stays out and she dies should we expect her to rise three days later? I'm sorry but that, in my opinion, is a bit extreme.

Terri Schiavo
This has been in the news quite a bit recently and while I don't have all the details from what I understand Terri told her husband before that if anything were to ever happen she whouldn't want to remain a vegetative state. But the parents continue to push the courts to keep her alive with a feeding tube. She's been in this state for almost 15 years now. I know there are times when people can make it back from that lenght of time but usually everything works fine they just aren't consious. Terri on the other hand can't do anything for herself. I just feel it's sad to keep her like that.
I guess my main thing is we don't know what happens to a soul when the body is like that. Perhaps she is traped in her body unable to leave because the body is still alive even if it's not going to get better. On the other hand if the soul has already left because of the brain damage they are just using state money to keep alive a body that nothing will happen to. And on the 3rd hand (if there is such a thing) If she does get better so much time has passed and so much more time may pass the world she will wake up to will be completly different. And who's to say if she does wake up she'll wake up compeletly. Anyway just posting this to get my thoughts out there. Enjoy or not just still my thoughts.

Female Gamer
So I'm a female gamer. It's true. My fiance considers himself very lucky. I'm not old school sorry. I did play NES as a kid but didn't really get into gaming until my jr year of high school. I play computer and console games. I do play Game Cube, PS1 & 2, and Dreamcast. I don't play XBox. I like adventure games, I like racing games, I like fighting games, I like MMORPG.
People don't seem to be as shocked when the find out a girl is gamer as they used to but I still help my fiance get some envious looks. I also shock people with they find out I have a sword collection and that I like daggers. Maybe I'm weird.

Sims 2
Sims 2 is VERY addicting. I have been playing it quite a bit the last few weeks. I love being able to marry this sim off to that sim. My friend said it's because I like being in control. That's probably true. I think it's also because in my head they have stories and I like to act them out and I can in Sims 2. Luckly I'm not the only one of my friends who plays and likes it. My old roommate has it and shes actually the one who got me playing it. My friend has been playing it at least a little everytime she comes over. She's taken one of my Sims into her household. It's neat to see who has kids with who and where they end up down the road. Ok I think this has become ramblings, though it may have been that all along. In either case I'll end this hear and well probably go play Sims.

Stephanie Pui-Mun Law - Shadowscapes - Fantasy Art
I absolutly love the art of Stephanie Pui-Mun Law. She does mostly fantasy art and it's all just beautiful. I would love to get a couple of her origional pieces some time. Right now I do have a couple of prints and I have one of her paintings as my desk top. Acutally for the past 2 or 3 years I've always had one of her paintings on my desk top. I wanted to share this with all of you. I hope you enjoy.

Yeah I'm here
So I started this ages ago (ages being about 5 months) and posted 3 times and now I've deleted those 3 posts and am starting over.
So I've just moved into Springfield and I have a job as a tele-marketer. Sounds delightful huh? I was on the phones for the first time today and have already been cussed at. At least it was only one guy. He was upset that I was wasting his cell phone min. Well I didn't call him at random that was the number he gave my company when he last used the services. Not that ya'll probably care about this.
Supriseingly enough the retard from class all week decided not to show today. Actually I'm not that suprised. He failed all three of his reviews and he really didn't get the phone calls very well.
My fiance is sick. It sucks. It's not super bad but still sucks. If I DON'T get sick then he's gonna buy me Sims 2 University Expansion next week. So I'm doing my best though in the end I suppose I really can't stop it if it's going to happen.
Ok I have nothing else really to say at the moment. Hi to those who know me and Welcome to those who don't.
