Just in case any of you fine folks would like to help plug my site, here’s what some of the buttons look like and the code that goes to them.

(I plan on making some less girlie looking ones

with different colors/styles soon.)

Thank you to anyone who humors this!

Disclaimer: Thank you to Mik for helping me to pull my non-cell-phone-havin’-head out of my ass!

I just want to let those of you who use your cell phone to do most or all of your computing know that I have now added a feature to my website which allows you to be able to use my site to its fullest!

The service is called MoFuse. It’s really easy to use!

I have a little button for it in my sidebar, so you don’t have to bookmark it if you don’t want to. All you’d do is go to my site and then click the little Mippin button in the sidebar to convert it over! Easy as that! :yes:

If anyone can think of any other features they’d like to have available to them on my site, drop me a line and I’ll see what I can do.

 • As the title of this entry suggests, it’s really gloomy again today. I say “again” because it was this way yesterday as well. I’d normally be okay with it, but it seems to be depressing the heck out of me today. Oh well…this, too, shall pass.  

• I’m listening to Alice In Chains - “Jar of Flies”…which is probably a pretty stupid move since it depresses me as well.       Duh!

• We took my son to the doctor last night. He wiped out on his bike the night before and hurt his arm. After getting x-rays and whatnot, we learned that it’s not broken - just a bad sprain.  Whew!  They gave him some Tylenol 3 and put his arm in a splint thingy. He’s got to wear it for 4-5 days and then he should be just fine.

• I’ve been having some REALLY messed up dreams lately. Last night, I dreamed that my boyfriend was an executioner. It wasn’t Lonnie…some other guy who had an uncanny resemblance to Leatherface.  Not his face (thank God)…just his build and choice of attire.    :lol:

• I have been watching a show on BBC America called “Skins“.  It’s quite entertaining. It’s kinda like an English version of Beverly Hills 90210 or Dawson’s Creek…but WAY less gay and lame.        It deals with sex, drugs, and coming of age…etc.  I recommend it.

• My Mom went to this place here in Vancouver called Jerusalem Cafe on her way home from a job interview today.  She said the guy who owns it is super nice…his name is Anton, which totally doesn’t fit for an Arab, but okay.        Apparently he ripped my Mom a new one for being ashamed of her heritage.  She’s always lied and told people she was born in San Francisco instead of the truth that she was born in Palestine. She’s dealt with a lot of discrimination in her life, so she says it’s easier to lie than to be up front and tell people she’s an Arab. I say BUNK! I am very, very proud to be Arabic, and if someone doesn’t like it, they can bite my Arab keister. That’s pretty much what Anton told my Mom, too…so maybe she’ll finally start being proud of what she is rather than ashamed. That’d be a really nice change.

• I downloaded IrfanView again. I used to use it years ago, but then for some reason I started using MS Picture Manager instead. I like IrfanView much more. Animated gifs are actually animated when you view them…rather than being still pictures like they are with MS Picture Manager.

• I’ve been sending my BFF, Sarah, text messages from my computer. Hehe…it’s pretty fun, actually. I’m easily entertained, I guess. The only problem is that I’m worried that she’s being charged every time I send a text message, so I’m doing it less than I would like to.  (Sarah, if you’re reading this, please let me know if you’re being charged or not, okay?)

• I said it before, and I will say it again - if you want me to link to you on my sidebar, just let me know! I’m wanting more junk over there, so I’m more than happy to oblige.   

• Speaking of my sidebar, I don’t know if you’ve noticed or not, but I have an Anti-Obama thingy over there.  I would like to clarify that I am in no way, shape, or form a Republican. (other than the fact that I’m totally pro-life)  I will not be voting for McCain, either. I can’t stand the guy. I really, really can’t stand Obama, though, so that’s why I’ve got that there. That’s all I will say on the matter. The last thing I want is another political debate. I pretty much couldn’t hate political debates more than I do right now.

• I really need to pee!      I’ll be right back!…….

• Ahhhhh….relief!  

• School starts on the 3rd of September, and we’ve yet to buy any clothes or supplies.  My daughter asked me the other day, “Why do we always do the shopping right before school starts?”   I just kinda stood there and said, “Umm, I have no idea. I guess we’re just last minute kinds of people.”  Really good explanation.  :roll:

• My Mom is going to make Salmon for dinner tonight. Mmmm….I loves me a hunk o’ Salmon!

• I am SO cold right now. Lonnie has the A/C cranked up way too high.      I hate it when our body thermostats aren’t in sync.

• Okay, that’s enough babbling for now.  I’m going to go throw some clothes in the washing machine and do a few other things around the house.  Have a super-duper day and I’ll babble at you again soon!
