sailorhathorToo much Guns n' Roses. ;)
It's funny (with this last poll) how many of you followed the natural progression of, "Write porn, watch porn, wink wink nudge nudge" in your answers, muahahaha. And not a single person told me to blow up my tv, hm, interesting. SO YOU ALL LIKE "FULL HOUSE" DO YOU?!! XD XD
My stir craziness went away about an hour after I posted this entry. Go figure. I have about 3 moods: manic (stir craziness takes place in this mood), generally happy, and "shit has gotten to me too much and I'm temporarily depressed." Mix in silly, creative, and/or sexual with any of those (except depressed). Oh wait, sometimes I get angry too. ^_^?

meridius made a site for her truck, bwahahaha! It made me remember several sites that I wanted to do but have not as yet gotten around to making. So now I will babble about them because I feel like it. ^_^
First there was a site for my pets. I currently have five guinea pigs, the sweetest little non-rodents I ever saw. I've taken tons of pictures of all the various piggies I've had over the years, but I can't do any work on this site until I get those pictures scanned. Which will take hours, especially with how temperamental my scanner has gotten since I moved the interface card up a slot. So, one day... but not now.
When I do get it set up, it will be called, "You, Mom! We learned it by watching you!" with the subheading, "Parents who make websites have pets who make websites." At some point, I'd like to take fake pictures of various piggies using the computer (turn the comp off and set a piggie on the keyboard), riding around in the Barbie van (shove piggies in the van and take a pic real fast), and other silly things. Then of course there'd be the silly chatter straight from the piggies; what they'd say if they could talk.
Next silly site that hasn't gotten made, and maybe never will: Lolo-ral! In the mid-90's, my friend Karen started subscribing me to various free things for fun. She wanted to put me in the Burger King Kids' Club, but thought they might actually check out my age, so she made up a fake child for me and subscribed her to all the kids' clubs she could find. This fake child was named Lolo-ral (a silly form of my name). Once, while doing this over the phone, a lady commented skeptically that Lolo-ral was an awfully strange name, so Karen told her that Lolo-ral was Vietnamese and had been adopted. O_o XD My imaginary child took on such a life of her own that I started doing it too; the last time she joined anything was in 2001, though. The cable channel Noggin was running a contest where if you could guess the hypnotic suggestion in "Big Kids" (a show on there), they'd put your name on tv. So Lolo-ral and I guessed it correctly and entered the contest via the website. At that time, she finally got a birthday (March 3, right between mine and my dad's birthdays XD). If they ever showed her name on the tv, I missed it. I think she was too far down the list; they had at least 1,500 kids enter!
At the time, Karen and I thought this whole crazy business was pretty funny, so I started talking about creating a small site for Lolo-ral, and purposefully putting in all sorts of alarming black humor type of stuff. Like "Lolo-ral's hobbies include juggling chainsaws, tea parties, and collecting books about artist Robert Mapplethorpe." Ahhhh, evil. I've never even started on it because I don't have any pictures to represent Lolo-ral, and what good would this site be without pictures?
Third ridiculous site that never got off the ground was to be called, "The Death of Sir Duckington." I gave Karen's dog, Maddie, a stuffed duck dog toy for Christmas in 2001. Maddie loves to chew on these things and, eventually, completely rip them apart. Somehow I came up with the idea of taking pictures of the progression of Sir Duckington's demise, and making a site of it. Karen loved the idea. We started taking pictures as things went along. Sir Duckington had a little rip in him the last time I saw him. Then Karen moved back home, and eventually dropped off the face of the earth. :( The duck is probably completely demolished by now. If she took anymore pics of it as the destruction went along, I have no idea. KAREN WHERE ARE YOOOOOOOU! Write me. ;)
And so, these sites may pass into the oblivion of never-used ideas. The guinea pig site is the most likely one to ever get off the ground out of those three. ^_^
Oh, before I forget again, is there any way to have slides scanned into .jpg files so they can be used on the computer? I've got some slides I want to share, and they won't scan (yes, I tried, hee). Does Kinko's have the equipment to do that?
