The laundry is finally done! I’m glad it’s all over. I got everything washed except my comforter. I was thinking about stretching my labret on to 8mm (0g) but I’m not sure if the taper I have will make that an easy feat. I’m smoking a lot more than I used to. Actually, I’m smoking less than I used to but more than I have been. One thing is, it makes me brush my teeth more and more each day. I already take exceptional care of my teeth. I don’t guess it’s a bad thing. My hair is starting to grow back out and it’s looking a bit wild. I think it’s time to find a hat to wear until it grows a bit more. I like billed-knit-like hats. Something a “rasta” would wear! Plain black though, I can do without the yellow green and red. I will probably just go without.
Oh my GAWD, the TV was just showing footage of Saddam’s fall and the people of Iraq were thanking, “Mr. Bush” – I think they are probably eating their words now. I’m sure they want us to get the fuck out of their country. I really need to stop watching so much TV. I don’t even know why I’m watching footage of the war. I’m so tired of all of it. I’m tired of soldiers expecting so much respect for something they decided to do theirselves. I’m just tired of it. I don’t care if you’re over there, I don’t support you nor will I ever. If it is my destiny to die, then die I shall. I’m so tired of hearing, “We’re over hear fighting for our country, fighting for people like you…” BLAH, BLAH, BLAH! I didn’t ask you to. If you weren’t there, I would be just as content. If they were here killing and raising hell (don’t even bring up 9/11! Build yourself a bridge and get right over it.) it would be different. Ok, I’ve really got to stop talking about war because it’s just making me ramble on about issues that so many have already voiced. I stay out of it usually… Just let it be known, you’re not doing me any favors over there. I would have “relations” with most of them though, I won’t tell if you dont! ;)
Today should be a quiet day in the house. I think my Mother is accompanying my Sister to Dallas to take my nephew to have his braces installed. I also get the comfort of knowing that someone is with my sister. I could be the one going but I can’t be stuck in Dallas for hours, waiting for braces to be done. There’s only so much you can do for 5 hours. I don’t want to walk around the Galleria, I want to shop and that I can’t do. I’ll have a nice quiet house to sleep away the day in. I’m such as nightstalker (yes, stalker not walker!). Either way, my time awake is winding down. I’m not so much tired, but I need to start settling in for bed. I have so pictures to post here shortly.
Not the most flattering picture, BTW! I promise!

Well, I just finished cleaning and rearranging Lucille’s cage. She’s pretty pissed with me I think. She wouldn’t come out of the tank so I had to block her off while misting the ground mix. She’ll get over it. I haven’t messed with her in some time and she’s been inside the half log for 4 days so I just blocked the open end and did what needed done. I finally got her out of the log and it was a mess in there. Webbing everything, poo everywhere and cricket carcases! I had a piece of wood going up to form a enclosed corner. I instead put the wood on it’s side, built a mound and gave her another choice for comfort and seclusion. I went ahead and took the water dish out. I keep it nice and moist so she should have plenty of choices when thirsty. There are also water drops along the walls of the tank. I think she’ll be fine.
I would like to get some sort of plant to put in there. I would rather have something real but I don’t know if it would eventually get too hard to clean with the roots and all. I like to mix the soil and add new when cleaning it out. I always keep most of the old soil in the tank. The only benifit of the plant would be for drawing water from the leaves. I think something artificial could give me the same result.
I’m watching Naked Science at the moment. I’m so tired of hearing the same shit about the planets that have been said over and over and over. Find something new out! Instead of funding the war, fund Space travel and exploration. It’s much more fascinating and not so damaging to the world. Not only is it sad to see US soldiers being killed (although, it was their choice!) there are also people who are innocent and have nothing to do with the war. Maybe it’s just me…
I read an article about a lead scientist for Nasa who is heavily pierced! That’s always nice! I guess it’s true that if you’re good at what you do, nothing else matters! I really hate when people use their piercings as a reason they couldn’t get a job. I’m sure it’s true in some cases, but get a damn education and stop blaming your own faults on your piercings. It makes the people who actually have successful careers, with their modifications, look bad!
On a lighter note, I did take a nice new picture of Lucille, I’ll post it later!
