Well, it is now 2 hours until it is officially my birthday and I am far from happy. Just a little info on just what has been going wrong lately. Let me see, we can start at Animeonline I suppose, since that is where it all began. I decided to make a journal entry about my new connection speed that pretty much increased my download speeds by quite a lot. So I was really excited about the new speeds and decided to make an entry about it. So my one friend decides he doesn't like the subject of the entry and feels that it is really stupid. Well, after that he proceeds to start making fun of me for the entry and harrassing me about it in my comments. I was pretty patient with him for a bit but then it started to get on my nerves. So I send him a PM and he finally stops.

At this point i'm just a bit stressed out, slightly frustrated, but not thinking really all that straight because i'm still annoyed. Well after that Jen logged into msn, something bad happened with her so that piles onto what happened with my other friend and now frustration has turned into a mix of me wanting to bang my head against the wall for being so stupid and being REALLY upset.

I thought that I could sleep off the crappy day I had and things would be better in the morning. Guess again. I wake up today (probably around afternoon, not morning) and I see that my other friend at AO has made an entry about how I tried to confide in him about being frustrated about what my other friend was doing to me. So he says i'm a baby and a wuss and all kinds of lame crap. (don't I have great friends at AO? -_-) so yeah that and some comment I made about a week ago about journal ratings.

So after that I decided to draw a picture (I can't draw very good at all so I was trying my best) for Jen as an apology for the previous night. Finished that and sent it to her, even if it wasn't very good I at least tried my best on it, i'm still new at drawing. That brings me to right now. It doesn't seem like my birthday is going to go all that great, I don't know what else could go wrong, but with the way things are going now ....

I don't have anything else to write, thats about it. I'm gonna go play some RO I guess, hopefully i'll feel better, maybe I'll get my Champion to 255 or something.

Well my birthday is coming up so someone got me a digital camera as a gift. Since I figure it'd be a waste not to get some use out of it I decided to take a few pictures of various things. I'll probably take more during my birthday but for now I only took a few

First is a picture of me:

ME!

Next would be some pictures of my car:

First is a frontal shot

Second is a shot from the side

This next one here is a shot I took of my ferret, bear:

Look at this guy being a ham!

Here is a few pictures I took that I thought Jen might like, they are of the sky during a sunset that I thought was very pretty:

Pretty looking sky!

Pretty looking sky, part 2!

and the final one is of my computer:

My chair needs replaced, maybe i'll ask for one for my birthday

That is it for right now. As for what i'm doing today, well, if Jen comes on and has the time (classes started for her) i'll be leveling with her. The lame thing about the server we play on is they just updated the software version for the server -- so right now the cards are all messed up and all our characters are uber weaker than they were before. Go from doing 25k damage down to like 15k and it is annoying. For me I went from close to 7k down to 2.3k damage.

One of the other issues was that the SP reduction cards aren't working either, so SP is a huge issue now too. /swt Oh well, hopefully by the time we play next the cards will be fixed. Right now aside from not working they don't drop from the monster that you killed, which makes sense when you think about it, why do monsters carry around their own cards? It is annoying, though, trying to get a perticular card. For example, to get Zombie Prisoner cards (+15% HP) we had to kill Goblin Archers. /swt

Well, that is all I have to update on right now, i'll probably update again shortly after my birthday to tell how it went. For now i've gotta go to the store with my mom, she wants to get some potato chips and that means I can grab a bag of "The Works." Jen should be proud of herself, she not only got her whole family addicted to that chip, but me as well. I don't mind, though, they are delicious! /slur

In honor of my birthday I decided to post this quiz thing. To see it go to "View All"

So since my blog buddies are all joining different fanlistings I thought i'd follow suit and join a few as well. Since I have gotten into Harry Potter recently and totally love it I went ahead and did a search for a fanlisting for that. I picked the one at the top of the Google search list. I went ahead and added in the code in for it, there was however an alignment issue with the buttons. I tried to add a line break to seperate the two, but that resulted in a HUGE gap between them. I decided to look to Jen's journal for help on fixing this (hope she doesn't mind), I found the html code from there that fixed the space issue. I think i'll surf around a bit later for more fanlistings to join, but for now.... onto Harry Potter.

As you know, about a week ago (give or take a few days), I bought the Harry Potter dvd collection for the first couple of books. Well, I watched them all in one night pretty much, but with me I miss certain things with the plot when I only watch something once. So I decided to watch them all again a couple days ago. Well, after that I felt like I wanted more, so I went out and got myself a library card so that I could borrow the books from the local library. This, in itself, was a very difficult thing to do. Every time I went the books were either due, processing, or being sent to a different library. So I decided to forget that idea and shell out the cash for the books as I read them. I went and bought the 4th book and am up to chapter 10 now.

Keep in mind all of this Harry Potter stuff has happened in just this past week alone. So now i've got a serious case of Harry Potter on the brain. I keep randomly thinking of spells from the books, even today when I was looking at guild names during WoE a guild called Windy City made me think I saw "Wingardium Leviosa." So yeah, I think I need a small break from Harry Potter. Funny I say that and then join a fanlisting XD

Well, I think i'm going to wrap it up there.

*edit* Made a new heading for my fanlistings, before it was under the "Favorites" heading. I figured it seemed a bit out of place under there so that is why I moved it. Aside from that I decided to join a few more fanlistings. That should be good for right now.

Well, lately I haven't been playing much FL, Jen and I have been testing out different builds in RO seeing what we like and what we don't like. So far i've figured out that for one I like certain skills that Assasin Cross get, I also like some of the sniper skills. In the damage department I think the skill Meteor Assult is a lot more powerful than anything the Sniper has in it's arsenal, mainly because it is splash damage.

As for real life events, well my sleeping pattern is all messed up again, I liked the Harry Potter DVDs I got and i'm probably going to watch them a second time when I get a free minute. I can't wait for the next one, which comes out in theaters some time in November. The only downside is that nobody around where I live likes Harry Potter so i'll be going to that movie alone. Oh well, at least i'll have someone to talk about it with online. As for the books, I have to get to the library a second time to see if they have them in yet.

I heard that Ruffles "The Works" chips ar really good, I definately need to get to the store sometime soon and get a bag or two. I wonder if they even have them at the conveniance store across the street from my house. I'll have to check there too. Anyways, so far that is about all I have to update on, i'll write more later I guess.

Well, I had a journal on cutenews before but right after my friend gave me the space for it the domain went down (don't I have great fortune?) seriously, lol. My luck must have gone on infinate hiatus or something, when I was re-hired as a mod at AO the server went down that day for about 2 days. Now after I had set up everything for my journal at my friend's site it went down.

Anyways right now i'm just writing this entry to test this out, then i'm going to watch the Harry Potter DVDs that I bought today. Other than that I hopefully didn't frustrate Jen too much with all the questions about setting up certain things in this layout. I am always concerned about driving her up the wall when it comes to her helping me with HTML stuff. The problem with that is me and HTML just don't mix. I could study it and actually get the basics down, but when you get right down to it I don't think webpages are my thing, at least not outside of those little programs like front page and such.

As for this new journal, well, since the old domain is down for an unknown amount of time Jen was kind enough to give me space to host a new one, thanks Jen! ^_^ I decided to re-upload the layout I was using at the other site, it is a pretty nice one and I like it. The one change I may make to it would be to brighten the text color of entries just a little bit as it is a little dim on the dark background of the layout. The non-layout related change that I am planning to make involves the smilies in the comment area. The blue ones I used worked well on my old layout, but on this one they look terrible. Anyway, I think i'm gonna go watch Harry Potter now.
