laurel's online journal

I just really want to put up a post on the last day of Feb. so my LJ calender will have a post here. ^_^

Also, I may have solved one of my neighbor problems. Time will tell. When the guy turns up his crappy music, I can usually only hear it in the bedroom. If I go in the living room, 95% of the time I can't hear it anymore. So, I cleaned off the couch. ^_^ I have a bad habit of using the couch as a junk depository. Most of my garage sale junk was on one end, and my coats and discman and backpack on the other end. I found another place for the garage sale junk (still looking for a garage from which to sell it) and hung up my jacket and sweater since I'm mostly wearing the coat right now. Other stuff went in a closet. I'm sure the coat and backpack will find their way back to the couch, but those things are easy to move. Now I can sleep on the couch if there's too much noise in the bedroom. (Hopefully. I imagine if I am not sleepy enough, I'll have trouble sleeping on the couch as I often do when not in a bed, but it's worth a try.)

As I said, I'm not looking to gripe to the cops every time someone makes a peep around me, especially since I sometimes sleep late into the day, being a nightowl. Most people are not sympathetic to that. :P

Dear Mr. Neighbor, Please do not give me reason to test the couch anytime soon. In fact, ever again.

The Olympics are over. :( I miss 'em already. They should have Olympics every 2 years instead of every 4 years. Then I could see them more often!

Yaaaaaay, we're kicking ass in the Olympics. What do you think of the Russian ice skater publically pouting over not winning the Gold medal in Men's Figure Skating? Sour grapes! He needs to watch his jumps back and be honest about his performance. You ever see a fish on a hook jump out of the water and go wobbling back and forth while it tries to fight the hook? That's what he looked like on almost every jump he made. You lost points there, honey! Suck it up and move on! How many people get to win a Silver Olympic medal in their lifetime?

People are calling Shaun White the Flying Tomato, ROFL! And he hates it. But it's SO FUNNY. He wants to be Animal, like Animal from the Muppets, which is much cooler. But, Flying Tomato!! XD

I have had one of the worst sinus headaches of recent memory tonight. :P Once I got back from the grocery store, I took some medicine (that I just bought) and it's trying to work. But MAN, it hurts. And of course, someone was moving in or out and there was tons of noise, stuff bumping around, people constantly walking and running by my window, EVERYBODY SHUT UP! It would be a bad idea to give me a rocket launcher when I feel like this, but I'd LOVE to have one. I'd get so much use out of it. Shhhhhee BOOOOOOM!!! ^_________^

I've done so little work on my Big Bang stories. I just haven't felt well enough to put my brain to work lately. Hopefully I can pull myself together in the next week, because I really do have some nice ideas for these stories. Someone needs to invent a device that will transcribe your thoughts to a text file, and then you could just edit what's already in your head without having to type it all out. (When do we get to have the future science fiction has promised us????) ;)

For those watching the Olympics, was anyone else put off by Nastia Liukin acting like a stuck-up little sourpuss until the end? Half the time it was like she was just going through the motions; "Yeah, whatever, I'm the best in the world, flip, flip, tumble, yaaaaawn." Lucky for her she's good. When I watch her, I seriously question whether or not she loves gymnastics, which are the routines I don't really enjoy watching that much. Smile, bitch, you're on Olympic camera.

Some of the male athletes are making me drool. Look at those fine, muscular upper arms. That one swimmer from America, Lochte? And the Japanese gymnast who got the silver? Ohhhh *faints*

Although, can we put a bag over Michael Phelps' head? :P Yeah, good swimmer, but face of a Collie.

People have been posting a lot of fanfic lately that has been squicking the hell out of me. From now on, I declare a ban on stories with the following couples (I can't help it if everyone will ignore my insane abuse of non-power):

1. Dean/Chloe from "Smallville." Bad imbalance of attractiveness. I just... no.

2. Ash/anyone. Ash looks like Achey Breaky Billy Ray Cyrus. That haircut isn't even attractive to metalheads. Naked Ash was nauseating. Not even cute when it's with Jo. No thanks.

3. Bobby/anyone hot. Please stop it.

4. Any of the Ghostfacers/anyone else. Are you on drugs? I doubt even the writer really found that hot.

5. Xander/Spike. WHY is this couple so popular? Thanks a lot, I just ate. *gag... gag* Not only would it never happen, but it's another imbalance of Hawt.

6. Special mention for Bobby/Ruby. *feeble* Mercy. Merrrrcyyyy.

Enough of that before I completely lose my sex drive.
