sylvie update

sorry i haven't posted much. living out in the country not alot of things happen so not alot of posts. celebrated my b-day this past friday...it was quiet but fun! got lots of cash which is always good. my mom made an angel food cake for my birthday and it was so damn good. the whole thing was eaten in one nite. so yummy!! let's see, what else. the leaves changing color are in full effect...so beautiful! and the ladybugs didn't last very long. they are already gone, most likely 'cause it got so cold here so damn fast. so not ready for winter and i was so pissed to see that my warm place that i would flee to (houston) was going to be in the 30s. heck, that's what we are facing too. is there no more warm places left? so sad. that's all for now.

note for all you people who think country living is great: it's not!!! it's for people who don't like or want contact with social situations. if you love that then the country is great for you. other people stay where you are. the grass is not greener on the other side. believe me...i know.

something about luck

You Are Balanced - Realist - Powerful

You feel your life is controlled both externally and internally.
You have a good sense of what you can control and what you should let go.
Depending on the situation, you sometimes try to exert more control.
Other times, you accept things for what they are and go with the flow.

You are a realist when it comes to luck.
You don't attribute everything to luck, but you do know some things are random.
You don't beat yourself up when bad things happen to you...
But you do your best to try to make your own luck.

When it comes to who's in charge, it's you.
Life is a kingdom, and you're the grand ruler.
You don't care much about what others think.
But they better care what you think!

happy birthday to me

Your Birthdate: October 21

Being born on the 21st day of the month (3 energy) is likely to add a good bit of vitality to your life.
The energy of 3 allows you bounce back rapidly from setbacks, physical or mental.
There is a restlessness in your nature, but you seem to be able to portray an easygoing, "couldn't care less" attitude.

You have a natural ability to express yourself in public, and you always make a very good impression.
Good with words, you excel in writing, speaking, and possibly singing.
You are energetic and always a good conversationalist.

You have a keen imagination, but you tend to scatter your energies and become involved with too may superficial matters.
Your mind is practical and rational despite this tendency to jump about.
You are affectionate and loving, but very sensitive.
You are subject to rapid ups and downs.

i hate feeling sick

you know how in the bible or in dante's book they talk about purgatory? kinda like the waiting room after you die and you're not really sure if you're going to heaven or hell. or, like in beetlejuice for people who really have no idea what i mean. well...for the past couple of days i have been going through what i like to call "purgatory sickness". not really sick...not really well. you're shaking because you're starving but feel like you're full and might puke if you take a sip of water. lovely, right? no...of course not! it's horrible...it's like i don't want to be sick, but i would appreciate it if my body would just make up it's mind. do you want me to be ill or not? let's go with not! of course, i kinda blame the weather...it's in the 80s all day which means a/c and then drops to the upper 40s at nite and then you need the heat. so your body temperature doesn't know whether to warm up or cool down. i also kinda blame the "flu committee", whatever the hell they're called. ever since the first day of fall all you keep reading about in all of the store papers that come with the sunday paper is: "are you ready for the flu?" um...no.

a few years back...i had to call out of work a couple of days before christmas because i had the flu and got yelled at by my now former boss who said "i would most definitely be working next christmas!" yeah, sorry i couldn't come to work and get everyone sick...i really tried but everytime i tried to stand i would fall back down...damn me for being weak and sick. i mean...i know it's busy during christmas season but to yell at someone because they had the flu is just ridiculous. he even told me my co-workers were mad at me, which wasn't even true...pathetic. so...last year during mid-october i gave my boss 6 1/2 weeks notice...alot i know...but i just wanted to make sure they had someone for the christmas season. i'm nice like that.

but...ever since i got yelled at for having the flu...i have this irrational fear of the flu. call it flu-phobia. i use to try and look on the bright side of the flu, like you lose a few pounds with all the puking...weird i know...but i always get it in the stomach and that's all i do is puke during the flu...so gotta try to look on that bright side. didn't get it last year 'cause i wasn't working and didn't have to be around all the sickies. thank God!! and i wish i could say i don't have to work this season but i have been out of work for almost a year and desperatly need money. so...flu shot this year. i hate needles but hate the flu more. ok...this is really, really long so i will wrap it up now...here's to a healthy non-flu season! cheers!! :)

happy october!!

it's finally october!! i love this month...mainly because my birthday falls in this month but also 'cause there's so much going on in october! it's also happens to be the month of my parents' anniversary, grandma h's birthday, halloween and as my friend told me today, her sons' christening. yes...busy month. but, most importantly beautiful month...fall is in full swing and trees should mostly be shades of orange, yellow and red now. should be...but according to the lovely weather channel we still have 3 days of upper 80s weather to go through. it's october dammit...no more 80s...bring on the cooler weather...not cold...just cooler. i am so not ready for winter yet. :P yuck! so...happy october everyone!!
