Top Ten reasons I'll probably go to hell:
10. I find enjoyment out of sites like StileProject and Crazy Grandpa.
9. I spend most of my time at work either working on my website or surfing the web. (this will probably get me fired, not to hell)
8. I spend the rest of my time thinking about quake (10%) or boys (90%).
7. *Wanderlust...* (who is the flavor of the week, hmm? okay, this is gonna get me into trouble..)
6. I smell my fingers after everything I touch. Well, maybe this won't get me into hell, but its disgusting.
5. I always want what I can't have.. badly! I covet.. I covet... I'm selfish and I feel I deserve everything..
4. I'm mean to the people I love if I'm in a bad mood..
3. I play a game where I derive pleasure out of seeing people blow up into pieces. And I'm good at it.
2. I have to stick my poor pup outside in the cold when our neighbors aren't around to walk her during the day so she can be inside. :(
1. I let Blade smell my hands after sex.
Okay that's probably WAAAAAAAAAAAYYYY too much information for you all, but I had to get it out and share. I hope this doesn't come back and bite me on the butt one day.. maybe if I can think of enough things I'll make another list, "Top Ten Reasons I deserve to go to Heaven" but I can't think of that many reasons yet.

You're slick, sleek, and you waste no time when there's a mission to be taken care of. You do what you're told, even if it sometimes means risking your life. You care for others to such an extent that you'd do anything for the ones you love. Not only that, but you're stylish, original, agile, and passionate.

I'm getting more and more addicted to Quake. It's all I think about, it's all I dream about. Is this healthy?

Very rarely does a song touch me when I hear it for the first time.. but this new song that radio stations have been playing does this to me. Its like a drug.. it squeezes my heart when I hear it.. it makes me dizzy.. and it makes me want to pounce the first cute boy I see. ;)
Travis - "Side"
Well I believe there's
Someone watching over you
They're watching
Every single thing you say
And when you die
They'll set you down
And take you through
You'll realise one day
That the grass is always
Greener on the other side
The neighbour's got a new car
That you wanna drive
And when time is running out
You wanna stay alive
We all live under the same sky
We all will live, we all will die
There is no wrong,
There is no right
The circle only has one side
We all try hard to live
Our lives in harmony
For fear of falling swiftly overboard
But life is both a major and minor key
Just open up the chord
But the grass is always
Greener on the other side
The neighbour's got a new car
That you wanna drive
And when time is running out
You wanna stay alive
We all live under the same sky
We all will live, we all will die
There is no wrong,
There is no right
The circle only has one side
I know its kinda late but my New Year's resolution is to try and be nicer to people. Even it if makes me want to tear my hair out.
This means being nicer when I talk about other people and stop referring to my boss as a f*cking idiot whenever he comes up among me and my coworkers.
China pooped about 5 times during the day Saturday inside the house.. then yesterday she decided to take a HUGE dump right next to the desk where I was sitting and I didn't catch her until she was done with the deed. Bad doggy! I never catch her so I can't discipline her.. this was right after I had walked her and she had pooped OUTSIDE.
Anyways, I haven't posted in a while.. but I'm not as bad as Puggles and Uggles. Where are you guys?? I need your witty entertainment.
I rode Tavi yesterday on a nice long trailride... I figured I'd take him out since I wanted a mellow ride by myself. So I stuck the bareback pad on him and hopped on.. met up with a friend of mine and once we decided to part ways on the trail he turned into a madman! He was jigging and screaming for his friend he had just left and at one point I was scared that he might just bolt off on me. I'd be SOL out on the trail then. Well, we got back in one piece with him covered in sweat.. ah well, it was an interesting experience. Each ride makes me a better rider and I have the sore thighs today to prove it.
I switched clans in the Q3 Xsiv world.. I am now part of a newly formed team called Xtreme Fraggers. It was a tough choice to leave PR and join another newly formed clan.. and a lot of people don't understand why I did it so I have a lot of people that don't like me much anymore. :( The guys on XF had been trying to recruit me to join for a while and I made my decision to finally join last week. Anyways, I love my new team.. they're the greatest. Steve aka ZeroDFEX and I play quite a bit and have a blast at it.. he's an awesome guy, and then there's the clan leader, my bud -MackinJ, who is a fellow bay area player. The other people on it are Dallas (he's from Texas y'all), Neo (cute and sexy boy), and NvicTus (who's just plain awesome). I'm not addicted, no I ain't.

Last night I had some strange dreams. I dreampt I was sleeping.. warm and content in a strange place. There was a boy that wanted to join me in my comfort.. and asked if he could join me in my sleeping bag with amorous intent. I didn't realize I was in a sleeping bag but I unzipped it to invite him to join me. I was wearing a nightshirt and it was tucked up to my stomach. (tangent: This is why I don't wear nightshirts. They end up usually around my neck when I wake up) So he climbed into my sleeping bag with me.. then I realized there were 2 other people, a male and a female in the room. Just sitting there. Doing nothing. End this portion of the dream.
Next part I was a third party observer. A girl and a boy were in love.. their match wasn't accepted by everyone. Once of the girl's disconcerts started to enter the long hallway where they were together. The girl put the boy into a huge walk in oven.. and raised the heat. I remember looking at the boy's face.. it took on the appearance of an ethereal-type creature. I feared for the boy but I also knew deep down inside there was a trap door in the oven and that he knew to escape and eventually would. End dream.
So many thoughts running through my head.. this will be the year of change for me.. I have a feeling my life at the end of this year will be different than now.
Then I woke up to the sound of my puppy drinking out of the toilet bowl. The one I had just peed in and neglected to flush. Ugh. Mental note, keep lid down.

In 13 days exactly I'll be 25 years old. I'll be in my mid-twenties.. which seems so strange to me! People that are 27 years old will only be 2 years older than me.. and 27 seems to be so out of reach! So much like an adult. I want to mess around some more.. I still want to be a kid..

A search for 'jsrha' on google came up with the following results:
A Quake 1 clan that Bob and I made up about 3 1/2 years ago. Cute picture of me.. I miss my curly hair!
Some guy's wallet I looked through and commented on.. I don't remember this.
I signed furry.com's guestbook years and years ago.. I don't remember this either.
It smells like cat pee in the office right now.
Yesterday I spent 6 straight hours playing Quake with a 30 minute dinner break in between and a few 10 minute breaks to potty and walk the dogs. Ugh, I think I play too much.. well, I have doing it and I've made a few friends that I like and play with. I gotta watch more TV.. or something.

Damn, I wasn't even trying to chose the meanest answers.. and it has been reconfirmed that:
![]() | You're a dangerous person -- very ambitious, self-aware and self-reliant. You know what your strengths are and how best to use them to your advantage, and you know what your weaknesses are and how to downplay them. You can either be a great leader or a great tyrant, but you'll definitely be great. Chances are you're also very sarcastic. |
Bob and I had this conversation yesterday while I was driving in the truck:
Me: I think I'm losing weight.. my tummy seems flatter.
Bob: (nods)
Me: I guess when I ask you weight questions you should always err on the side of thinness hmm? (grins)
Bob: Well, no... I think you are getting skinnier. You were getting a little chunky around the holidays.. with all the good food in stuff.
Me: WHAT???? ARE YOU SERIOUS???
Bob: Yeah, that's why we didn't have sex, cuz you were so grotesque. Hehe, just kidding.
Me: Ugh, oh well, at least I'm looking thinner now. (looks down at my tummy) See, no bulges. So, where do you notice it first when I gain weight? My face? Boobs? Tummy? What?
Bob: Your stomach probably. But I don't notice much because I see you everyday.
Me: Yeah, for you its your stomach too. And when you don't shave or have your hair cut you look a bit bigger in the face too.
Bob: Like Tavi in his winter fur.. he looks really big.
Me: Yup.
Bob: Your mileage sucks cuz you're a bad driver.
**note, these may not have been his exact words, but rather what I percieved of our conversation.
Mellow weekend.. Friday night we did nothing but hang around and play Quake (oh yeah, yakked from coughing so much)... then I woke up Saturday at around 2pm and went to a local restaurant for breakfast. Saturday evening we went to a neighbor's house for dinner. She's an older woman and Bob stayed around afterwards to help her set up her new computer (hmm.. he spent an awefully long time over there.. past midnight or so.. maybe he has a fetish for older women?). Sunday I woke up at about noon and we went for a nice long relaxing trail ride. It was absolutely beautiful.. Bob said it had all the aspects of a good ride: greenery, trotting, cantering, streams, chasing cows, bucking (Isabella), and the only thing missing was that one of us didn't almost fall off (which is usually his job). He'll just have to try harder next time.

You're blue — the most soothing shade of the spectrum. The color of a clear summer sky or a deep, reflective ocean, blue has traditionally symbolized trust, solitude, and loyalty. Most likely a thoughtful person who values spending some time on your own, you'd rather connect deeply with a few people than have a bunch of slight acquaintances. Luckily, making close friends isn't that hard, since people are naturally attracted to you — they're soothed by your calming presence. Cool and collected, you rarely overreact. Instead, you think things through before coming to a decision. That level-headed, thoughtful approach to life is patently blue — and patently you!
I thought green was more my color.. but blue's good too.
You can't get no satisfaction — because you're guilty of ENVY. You seem to always want what you can't have. But remember: "Love thy neighbor" doesn't mean "long for thy neighbor's stuff." Why do you care so much about the Joneses, and why do you think you have to keep up with them? Life is too short to be jealous of others; you've got plenty of your own to offer. Enjoy the blessings you do have, especially friends and family, and try to keep a positive outlook on life.
Yes, unfortunately this is true.. I always strive for what I can't have and am always yearning for more..
I have an all day long experiment today.. and I'm sitting waiting for my samples to get pulled so I can prepare them. In the meantime, I have looked through most of my daily website so I examine myself with my little hand mirror like I do when I'm bored.. searching for blemishes, etc. Today I noticed that I have quite a few hairs around my mouth.. like a mustache!!!! My god I didn't realize that they were that long. Now I can't stop looking at them. Why didn't anyone tell me before?
Well, that picture was taken ages ago.. but as I look at that picture even now I look like I have a hairy upper lip. I'm obsessed now.. gotta get this thing waxed off before I go insane..

I recall a dream I had last night that reminded me of my awkwardness and how little self-esteem I had regarding the opposite sex when I was in junior high and most of high school.
It was prom time.. and everyone was excited and looking forward to the event. Most everyone that was going had a date already.. Going along with how bizarre my dreams are, one of my teachers had "paired" everyone up with people that would be most compatible with. My match was this guy named (?) Allen - I forgot his first name, but it was a guy I was somewhat interested in when I was in junior high. He had a date already.. I remember dreading asking someone else but knowing I wanted to go to this dance.. I asked this pimply but cute guy at the same time another, more popular girl asked him.. and he chose the other girl. Still no date! Ugh, rejected twice.. Fast forward to a stable where I was going to go riding and I had to switch shoes to those spiffy Reeboks the Survivor people had one (like I said, bizarre).
It doesn't make sense.. and it just reminded me of how self-conscious I can be when around guys. There always seems to be someone cuter, more interesting, more popular than me.. and I hate that I think this way. I just want to feel wanted.
The 2001 Darwin Awards are out.. I thought I'd share with ya'll my personal favorite (the winner!):
PADERBORN, GERMANY - Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt fed his constipated elephant Stefan 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally let fly-and suffocated the keeper under 200 pounds of poop! Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded on him like a dump truck full of mud. "The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground, where he struck his head on a rock and lay unconscious as the elephant continued to evacuate his bowels on top of him," said flabbergasted Paderborn police detective Erik Dern. "With no one there to help him, he lay under all that dung for at least an hour before a watchman came along, and during that time he suffocated. "It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that happen."

I've never, ever done it in a public place. I've made out with the first BF in a parking lot and have probably groped and have been groped at a restaurant, but never done the full deed. Another task to put on my things to do list before I die.
China, China, China.. our new puppy girl is amazing. She provides so much entertainment and laughter.. it's so refreshing to see a baby's perspective on the world. Everything is new and exciting to her, sometimes scary even.. but she takes it all in stride.
It's getting easier to walk the two dogs.. Blade's pretty leash trained, he'll heel nicely at your side, but China is kind of all over the place. When I walk them both I have a leash in each hand and its kind of like riding, when one gets to far up I bump them with the rein and they'll fall back into place. Picking up poo while holding two leashes as a puppy is trying to slather you with kisses is another story.
Bob recalled this story about her the other morning that pretty much sums her personality.. he was getting ready to walk her and asked her to 'sit' to clip the leash on her collar.. as soon as he'd lean down to clip it on, she'd jump up and wiggle around, her tail wagging the whole time (when her tail wags, the whole hind 3/4 of her body wags along with it). This happened about 2-3 times, she's soooo happy she couldn't contain herself to sit still. Bob kept asking her to sit.. sit.. sit.. and finally she does and out of frustration/happiness at the last minute, she can't contain herself and gives him a HUUUUUUGEEE enthusiastic slurp with her whole head as he clips on the leash.
She's always happy to see us.. she peers at the computer and cocks her head when it makes wierd noises.. she runs after toys and skids across the floor in excitement.. she gazes at her reflection in the mirror in amazement.. she makes cute puppy noises when she's dreaming..
The best part is, Blade loves her.. you guys should see them play together, it's hilarious. They run top speed chasing each other across the lawn and wrestle until one of them collapses (usually China). He's fascinated with her ears.. last night he was chewing on a piece of rawhide and China comes sauntering over to him.. he pokes at her ears, sniffing at them and she very daintily picks up the rawhide from between his paws and walks away with it..
Endless entertainment...
Gah, I'm soooo tired today. I didn't get much sleep last night as I was coughing up green phlegmy stuff. So I'm kind of in a daze today.. tea tea, more tea...

I'm back at work today.. and I can actually speak, albeit a bit roughly. Last night as I was going to bed my left ear hurt so bad I thought my brains were going to start leaking through my ear hole. We put China outside for today.. I feel bad because its so cold but she'll pee/poop/puke inside the house! *cry* I don't know what else to do.. anyways, hopefully I'll go home early to rescue her.. and to get some rest for myself.
Monday, January 14, 2002
She's a 4 month old chocolate lab puppy.. a coworker's wife found her wandering the streets about a month ago and we've had her since Saturday. We renamed her to China (don't ask what her name was before, hehe!) and she's a handful! Oh the puppy stages.. both Bob and I aren't used to it. She pees and poos all the time, gets into everything, and when her tail wags, her whole body shakes. She's already pood and peed inside the house and barfed up unidentifyable garbage bigger than her head.
On a side note, I'm sick. I'm home from work today.. my throat hurts like hell, I sound like a 70 year old prostitute that smokes. And my sinuses are filled with snot.

A brilliant bolt of lightning descends! SHAZAAM! The oracle has spoken!
The smoke clears to reveal that inside you is a divine being,
HESTIA, the Goddess of Family and Peace.
She's a deity who embraces all the aspects of womanhood. As a woman in her image, you exude femininity and sensuality.
You view men as the perfect counterpart to your womanly ways. But you probably don't appreciate casual encounters. Rather, you prefer purity and tradition. Because of these predilections, you tend to attract men who understand your nature and possess maturity and seriousness beyond their years. When you finally arrive at the bedroom and your divine qualities are released, you reveal such sensuality that the experience is unforgettable. In other words, with the right guy, you really know how to get wild in the sack. In fact, when the mood strikes, you can easily drive your man crazy. But out of respect for your inner nature, you require love and devotion from your partners. You are an attentive and giving lover who knows how to make your man feel sexy, appreciated, and fulfilled. When you show your stuff, it's like a light shines down from the heavens. Behold, the skies proclaim, here lies a goddess!

Bob's still incredibly sick. He's been hacking up half of his lung and puking every 2 minutes. Just kidding, he isn't puking but if I were him I would definitely be puking with the way he sounds. I am sympathetic to him.. it's tough seeing him so miserable, but at the same time I don't want to get near him because I'm afraid I'll get sick too. So far I've been healthy despite hoards of sick people surrounding me not only at home but at work as well. If I got sick from Bob shit would hit the ceiling (is that how the saying goes?). I'd probably be grumpy to him so its in both our best interests that I don't get sick from him. :)

Thanks to Phoenix for makin' this quake3 sig for me.. ladies, he's lookin' for a gal between 16-18 years old so get to it y'all!
So I spoke with my supervisor's boss today and I decided to give him another chance. 3 months and we'll see where we are from there.. I'm an open kinda gal, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and just assume that he's being an idiot and is not out to get me *grin*
This Saturday is our company's anti-gala.. can't call it a gala because our company is not in a party-mode. My coworkers know so many secrets about each other it'll be interesting sitting around the dinner table together. Man, if any one of else slipped something all hell would break lose! Hehe!

This past weekend I flew solo to San Diego to visit my sister and a friend. It was a fun-packed weekend despite it being only the second time that I'd been away from Bob.. the first time being over a year ago when I was away for a business trip in Baltimore.
It was great seeing my sister and her fiance again.. their place is really messy though. Her best friend from high school, Ayren, was there as well and it was fun hanging out with her and reminiscing about days gone. On Saturday we went to the San Diego Wild Life Park and wandered around there.. we went back to the apartment and I got stoned for the 3rd time in my entire life (the second time being the night before at my friend's house) then went out for some yummy Thai food. I got my meat fix that weekend.. I had ribs at the Thai restaurant and prime rib the night before.. my stomach was killing me on Sunday although it was worth it.
We were headed over to get drunk and do karoake then to a nudie bar but unfortunately Andy forgot his ID so we went miniature golfing instead. We said, screw the scores, and just messed around.. got back to the apartment and vegetated. Lizette and I slept for around 12 hours and on Sunday we smoked again and then went to IHOP.
Smoking is an interesting experience.. I don't notice any radical changes in me when I did it. In fact, I didn't think it worked on me all weekend.. although I did feel a little relaxed, like right before I go to sleep. Lizette said I was quite funny though and at one point I called Bob up and he said I sounded like I was in a really really good mood. Strange I didn't notice any of that. I've never smoked cigarettes in my life and its strange seeing smoke blow out of your mouth. Anyways, all I noticed was that I was pretty mellow, but I'm usually pretty mellow anyways. I also noticed that I was a bit stupid too.. spacey and not all quite with the program. Interesting experience. Maybe it did work on me.
So after we got sufficiently high, we went to IHOP. Okay, the one effect that I know that pot *definitely* had on me was that it made me insanely hungry. I ordered the breakfast sampler and cleaned my plate and when we got home I had some chips too. It was like the fullness part of my brain wasn't working.. I thought I must've gained so much weight this past weekend but this morning I just slipped into my tightest black jeans like it was nothing. Woohoo! Anyways, I'm happy about that.. it was a good weekend.
As a present to Bob, I had an animal communicator "talk" to our animals for Christmas. Here were the results:
Blade: (background info - we got him at 1 year of age, he's a 2 year old smooth coated collie, shy around lots of noise, loves the barn and horses, a wonderful "perfect" dog)

Isabella loves him, Tavi not as much.. loves horses.

Likes Endurance better, doesn't like competitive trail, just likes to go go go (yes, but she's a bit of a slowpoke because of Tavi's influence)
Did something like parades or dressing up? (No)
Tavi (background: Bob's had him for 2 years, he's a mellow easy going fellow, a bit stoic but he's QUITE expressive about the fact that the world revolves around him and his food, 11 year old solid palomino paint)
Poor care, shoddy place, been through a lot
Bob's really nice, cares about him
Tries really hard to keep him happy and healthy..
Tries to show him how much he cares about Tavi
Wondering if its going to last.. worried about this
Bob loves me.
Bob to be more emotive, show his love, talk to him..
Go along, not a complainer..
Not as resilient as Isabella, more health problems
Not as good as care was taken of him..
Severly squealched.. western riders, sometimes afraid to show how he feels. (hmm)
Low energy, digestion problems, sore neck.
Swinging his neck - trying to fix it..
Immune system not great.. tight in the withers.
Bad saddles before.. Now seems okay western type saddle. (true)
Lightening up on the bit. (Well, he's only in a loose-ring french link snaffle which is as mild as they come)
Possible fetlock problem
Likes competitive trail - it is "fun interesting and funny", gets tired on the trail
For the most part she was accurate, the quotes are the words that she got from the animals themselves which is pretty funny. Anyways, Bob really liked it.. I think she was most accurate about Blade. After each consultation she gives suggestions on holistic care if you're interested. Wasn't too expensive either.. around $35/animal (well, I guess its relative).

Strange too.
Last night Blade ate his hankerchief (this is the piece of cloth he'd swallow down his throat then slowly pull it out like people do with spaghetti) and barfed it all up along with his dinner at the entrance to our bedroom. So I didn't get much sleep last night..
This weekend I'll be in San Diego visiting Lizette and a friend of mine.. see ya'll Monday! Have a wonderful weekend..

Isa and I just got back from lunch.. we went to this all you can eat Indian place on University in Berkeley. I'll never go there again.. I'm sorry ! I found a black short coarse hair on my papadan. It wasn't mine either.. I know, hair falls into food all the time but it just grosses me out. The following is a list of places I'll never eat again and why:
1. El Torito. I went to this restaurant on my 16th birthday and I've rarely been back (except for large social gatherings where I had no choice). For my birthday instead of a regular strawberry margarita they gave me an alcoholic one.. which would've been plus points if I weren't so sensitive to alcohol. Anyways, that was nice.. not a bad thing. They seated my mother and my siblings next to the kitchen and from my seat I could peek in and see the hustle and bustle of the food preparers. As we were waiting for our food, I spied a kitchen worker "recycling" sour cream and guacamole from one plate to another. No El Torito for me.
2. The Good Luck Noodle House. This restaurant is a chain here in the bay area.. known for fresh hot noodle soups. It attracts the yuppie crowd and my coworkers and I went there about a month ago on a cold, chilly day. Their iced tea was nasty.. it tasted like beer which I wasn't in the mood for.. so Rafael asks the waiter if I could switch to a ginger ale instead. No problem.. plus points here. However, when we get our food, Rafael discovers the sprig of mint that is adorning is noodle soup has an occupant, a big ugly SLUG. He testifies that slugs are clean and we all eat our food in relative silence. No Good Luck Noodle House for me.
3. The Elephant Bar and Grill. This is a hot spot restaurant in Concord.. it's a nice friendly place, kind of like Hard Rock Cafe with different animal ornaments and murals on the walls. Big palm fans move over the crowd and the place is always noisy and filled with life and huge platters of food. Bob and I went here about a year ago for dinner to try the place out. We were starving that day so we ordered some nacho appetizers. The nachos come out and we start picking at the food and discover a long, large piece of packing tape embedded in the cheese and chips. Complete with cardboard. We get free dessert which is plus points, but.. No Elephant Bar and Grill for me.

I'm so tired of work already. Yes, I was motivated to come in this morning.. I was tired of my days being filled with porn and quake (and walking the dog), but now that I'm here at work I get so incredibly bored!!
I really enjoyed the holidays with my family. My mom had the traditional plastic tree up and got out all the decorations and told us kids to stick all the ornaments up. Well, that never got done because we were too busy playing video games and getting up at noon.. There were a shitload of presents though. Everyone got some good loot.. Bob gave me a pair of beautiful diamond earrings which made my day.
Lizette and Andy bought their Japanese student along and he engaged in the annual charades game with my brother and cousin, Bob and me. He picked 'poop' and 'toilet' out of the word bag and I got those instantly! We also got a kick out of teasing him, asking him what 'bukkake' meant (if you don't know what it means, do a search on the web). He even got 'smells like bukkake' (courtesy of my sister) and I was able to guess that right away. Our family's version of charades forces you to *become* the thing. One of the first years Bob spent Christmas with my family, he recieved the word, 'big toe' and had to enact being the big toe just as all my aunts, uncles, and grandparents decided to come see what us kiddies were doing. He did a good job by demonstrating by repeatedly 'stubbing' his head over and over again on the wall.. Ahhh.. the Rha family games.
I am Kong.Strong and passionate, I tend to be misunderstood, sometimes even feared. I don't want to fight, I don't want to cause trouble, all I ask is a little love, and a little peace. If I don't get what I want, I get angry, and throw barrels and flaming oil at whatever's stopping me. What Video Game Character Are You? |
