We went to Game Stop today and I picked out 2 games. Untold Legends: Warriors Code and Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters.
They were both used so I got a good price, Untold Legends was $12.99 and Ratchet and Clank was $14.99. Because I had a $25 gift card I only had to pay $5.01 extra. It’s nice to get a new game but these don’t scratch very easily so used PSP games aren’t a big deal. I usually keep my games in their cases so they never get scratched.
I can’t wait to play these new games.
No, I wasn’t robbed but our neighbor whose name is Bob was robbed. He had this girl living with him who cleaned his house in exchange for free rent and utilities but he wouldn’t give her a key. She had her own room so why not give her a key? That’s called being imprisoned. Anyway, she would open her bedroom window and she put a chair by her window and she took the screen out and she would climb out the window and then come back in when she came back.
Well, Bob didn’t know that and he woke up this morning and she was gone and so were all his DVD movies and audio CD’s also some of his electronics were gone too.
I’m sorry this happened to him but you don’t just ask someone to move in with you if you don’t even know who they are and not give them a key and make them clean your house in exchange for free rent. Although, how do you really know anyone? Anybody can come into your life and pretend to be your friend then rob you blind when your guards are down.
We have bars on our windows to keep the burglars out. This isn’t a really good neighborhood. There was a murder last week a block from our house, a double homicide in fact. A couple of years ago on July 4th this guy was beat up right in front of our house and he was taken to an alley and shot several times and nobody heard the gunshots because of all the fireworks.
I really want to move.
LOL I have to laugh because I have this fantasy that I have a bunk bed with a desk in my bedroom. I’m 38 years old going on 12. I just don’t feel 38 for some reason. I want to have posters of singers on my walls and I want to have a bunk bed and sleep on the top bunk. This is the first time I’ve had my own bedroom, and I really mean that. When I was a kid I either shared a room with my older sister or when we lived in Reseda my bedroom was a walk-in closet and when we were in Sepulveda my bed was in the living room. I never really had my own bedroom.
When I was living with my sister I had to sleep on the couch in the living room. I did move back in with my parents when I was 18 and I had my own bedroom but that was short-lived, I’ve had my own room many times but for a short period of time. I don’t count the times I’ve lived in motels as having my own room cause that’s all it was, a bedroom. When I’ve been in relationships I don’t consider the room being mine because it was shared with the person I was with who always had the design decision.
I didn’t have a very good childhood and so I’m reclaiming it and I just don’t feel 38. I feel like a pre-teen with my bike and my video games and stuff. My bedroom here in Bakersfield is a really small room, I don’t have any room to walk around or do anything. If I had a Nintendo Wii system I wouldn’t be able to play games very effectively because I have no room to move in here. My desk is so huge too which isn’t bad, I actually like my desk. It’s a corner desk and it’s right next to my tv so I can watch tv while typing (as I am doing now).
Darrin is about to start working (keep your fingers crossed) at Mor furniture for less and they have these bunk beds (in the children’s section lol) and one of them I really like. It has a desk on the side and it has a top bunk bed then it has a bottom bed that sticks out and it’s really neat because it has shelves inside there and a dresser which I don’t currently have. I’m using Rubbermaid drawers for my socks and underwear and I have to fold and put my t-shirts in the linen closet. So this would be perfect for shirts at least. Here is a picture. The only problem is it’s $800 lol.
Bonanza Student Bunk
$799.99
“Your children will have their sights set on the Bonanza Student Bunk Bedroom collection. Functional and fun, this solid pine package features space-saving design with plenty of desk and bookshelf space. This collection includes bunk bed, and desk with hutch. (Chair not included.)”
I’ve never slept on the top bunk before but at the same time my BiPap machine would be perfect on one of those shelves on the bottom bunk. But I think that at 230lbs, I’d be better off on the bottom bunk don’t you think?
Since I’m not using my laptop anymore because I can’t afford to renew my warranty, I’m only going to use it for GPS when we go on trips and it’s really slow so I’m going to have to reformat it so when we do go on trips the GPS will load much quicker. Although, I would love it if we could buy a $99 TomTom.
When I was using my laptop, I had it specifically for all the IM programs like MSN Messenger, Yahoo IM, AIM, ICQ, Skype and MySpace IM. Plus I was using it for Microsoft Money 2004. It came with the laptop. But since I’m not longer using the laptop I had to install all of those programs onto my desktop and since I’m not playing EverQuest anymore then I have no reason not to have those run on the desktop.
The only drawback is that when I turn the computer on I have to wait forever for it to load. The laptop typically took about 10-30 minutes to load. Yeah, I know. I’ve reformatted it but then as soon as I install all that crap back on there it takes forever again to load.
So why do I have all these IM programs installed? Because some people absolutely will not use some IM programs. Like for example, my cousin refuses to use anything but ICQ. Well, he’s the only person that I know who uses ICQ. I have friends who will not use anything but MSN Messenger. Some friends will only use AOL or AIM. So in order to accommodate all those people I must have 6 IM programs running at the same time.
Actually, to be honest I stopped using ICQ because my cousin never gets on it so why keep loading it? All I get are spam IM’s so if he can’t get on another IM program then I’m not going to accommodate him. I mean, he ain’t using ICQ so why should I have to load it right?
I have a 3lb Chihuahua. She likes to play. She LOVES to play. I was holding her and blew on her neck, you know like when you blow on a baby’s stomach and it makes a farting sound and it makes them giggle. Well, I can tell when she’s laughing because she starts sneezing and, well, I can tell. And so I kept doing it and she thought it was funny, she was having fun. Then I did it on her side and all of a sudden she got real serious and PEED on me.
I don’t know what’s wrong with her. Whenever I’m playing with her I kiss her and stuff but whenever my face goes anywhere near her side all of a sudden she gives me this look of horror and starts peeing on me. It’s like she’s scared all of a sudden that she thinks I’m gonna just start chowing down on her. As if, she only weighs 3lbs, she barely has any meat on her at all.
We’ve had her for a year, don’t you think that by now if we were going to eat her we would’ve eaten her already? What’s up with that? I mean it’s not like we’re fattening her up to prepare her for Thanksgiving dinner, I mean, Thanksgiving has already passed. LOL. Poor thing. I really love her, she’s so cute and so funny but… I don’t want to eat her.
It may appear that I like to talk a lot. I mean because I have 460 blogs over the last year and half (including this one). At the beginning of this blog I only blogged once a day, sometimes only a few times per month. But then when I started using Word Press all of a sudden I’m blogging sometimes 4 or 5 times a day or more. I just have a lot to say.
But my online personality is so not the way I am in real life. I mean, if I have a story to tell then I’m chatting and sometimes wont shut up but there are times that I just don’t talk at all. It’s not because I have nothing to say but like when I go visit family it seems like my brain freezes, and not the good way like when you drink a Slurpee. It’s like all the information in my head drained during the flight or bus or car trip. You know when you are on the freeway for a long time and because you have gone to a higher elevation than you are used to your ears are plugged up? Well, I think that’s what happens, my ears plug up to keep all the information in but there is a leak somewhere and all the words just leak out. Maybe it’s when I fall asleep during the trip. That’s when the defenses are down.
I’ve visited my aunt’s Betty, Louise and Joyce’s house and it seems every time I go there, I can’t talk. I just have nothing to say. My brain just clears. It reboots if you will but windows just doesn’t load properly, it goes into safe mode.
But, you give me a keyboard and I can’t shut up. All the information needs to be released and it comes out here.
Finally, someone stands up for America and it’s Canada. I love Canada, they brought us John Candy, Howie Mandel, Martin Short and many more including the guys from the free credit report dot com commercials. Read this…

Well it finally happened. I broke a chair. Actually it has happened before. It’s an old chair so leave me alone lol. This chair that was in Chips moms room that she’s had for a long time, when she passed away we put it in the living room. It’s not a rocking chair, it’s a regular chair that rocks. A rocking chair would be all wood, this has fabric and springs etc.
What makes the chair rock are these 2 giant springs that are attached to 2 pieces of wood at the bottom of the chair and the springs are also attached to the chair. Well, a year ago the springs broke where it’s welded, 1 spring broke and we asked our neighbor Dan who worked in a shop if he would re-weld it for us because that’s what he does. So he did and then the other spring broke in the same way and so he fixed that too. Well, it didn’t take long before one of them broke again but we never had him fix it a 2nd time. The other spring just broke at the weld again so we’re retiring that chair lol.
I’m just too heavy to be able to sit in an old chair and rock it. If it were a new(ish) chair like a recliner chair then I’m sure it would be a lot better. This one made so many noises when I would rock in it, like squeaking sounds, you know because the springs needed oil or something. I’ve sprayed WD-40 on them and they didn’t stop squeaking. But I’ve sat in recliner chairs at the furniture stores and they never squeaked.
I would love to get a new chair but I just can’t afford it, even a used one. So, I moved the rocking chair and put a regular chair in its place so now no more rocking hehe. Oh well.
I was just watching Bridezillas on WE. Why? Don’t ask. But omg these women are either classless or nuts. This one woman couldn’t stop yelling at everyone. If she could only see herself. One of the things she said was “this isn’t his wedding, it’s my wedding”. LOL ok. If I was the guy getting married to her I would’ve told her to get married by herself because this isn’t just her day, it’s his day too.
Frankly I don’t see why people are in such a hurry to get married and why it’s such a big deal that they have to spend thousands upon thousands of dollars that they don’t really have. You could just have a simple wedding at home or at a relatives house who has a large back yard where you can just buy groceries and cook a buffet meal and bake your own cake. And why spend thousands of dollars on a wedding dress you are only going to wear once. Just get a nice wedding dress that is under a hundred that you can actually afford.
A lot of people can’t get married you know so I think that they should think about how lucky they are that their wedding is actually acceptable to society before they act so high and mighty about being in such a hurry to get married. I don’t know the numbers but a lot of marriages end in divorce, especially the rushed ones.
I’ve been watching TV for a very long time. At least 36 of my 38 years that I can remember. I remember when I Love Lucy couldn’t say 1 bad word. It actually wasn’t until the 80’s when the Golden Girls started saying Bitch. Then before you know it, cop dramas started saying Shit. Hey, if they can say it on TV, then I can say it in here.
The cartoon South Park says a lot of bad words like God Damn. They say it all the time. That’s like the ultimate bad word because it has God in it. You can’t say that on tv. Well, apparently they can because they do and they’ve carried it over to every other show on tv.
Now, this word I know isn’t a bad word, in fact it’s just silly. Douche Nozzle. I’ve been calling people a douche bag for years since I was in junior high school, even though I had no clue what it was until high school. But you know, people have been saying that as long as douche’s have been around I’m sure.
Last night, on Knight Rider, the female lead Sarah called Michael a douche nozzle lol. I was like OMG I can’t believe she just said that. Yeah I’ve heard it in the movies but I’ve never heard it on TV coming from a woman. And I don’t mean that to sound like a double standard so I don’t want to get emails or bad comments but you know, I was shocked to hear it from HER. LOL
