That strange addicting game that I’ve been playing on Myspace is getting worse. Right now, there are three cities that you can go to and “master”, New York, Moscow, and Cuba. I finally finished New York a few weeks ago, which is definitely the longest city. It’s the first one, and when I started playing the game Cuba and Moscow didn’t even exist. When ever you finally finish that stage, they give you two energy in the time that it used to take to just get one. So, doing that state first makes it easier to get all the other ones done. I’m going to be done with Cuba in a few days, and then move on to Moscow, but I know that I will never be done. The game is never going to end, because they are already coming out with two new cities this holiday season. I think that the best thing for me to do would be to just stop playing the game all together, because each time I finish something and feel complete they add something new so I have to keep going. I stopped for a few months, and when I went back to see what was going on with the game I wished I hadn’t because I felt like I was so far behind. Maybe when I finish the three they have now, I wont let myself start the other ones and then I’ll just stop doing the game and say I conquered it. We’ll see how that works out for me…

My family are a bunch of cat people. All of us. We have four cats that currently live in the house with us, and I am never surprised when there are more added because my mom feels bad for them. The most recent addition, and by recent I mean many years ago, was Little Boy. Or, Scooter Brown, as he’s known on his birth certificate. And, he’s also the strangest cat ever. He is really pretty, an American Bob Tail, so he’s white and has a darker stripe along his back. He’s got beautiful blue eyes and he’s really big and muscular. But, he has no tail. Which is fine with us, but he’s a little sensitive about it. When you try to touch his “nub”, he gets pretty pissed off. And, when he gets mad, those beautiful blue eyes turn a scary shade of red. Since they are so pale, when he gets excited you can see the blood vessels in his eyes get fuller and his eyes change colors. Which is pretty creepy. Most of the time, he’s strolling around like he owns the place. He’s the biggest and strongest of the cats, but he’s also the most clumsy of them. If I had to describe his demeanor, I would never say he acted like a cat. He acts like he’s a dog, like following you around and just wanting to play all the time. He’s definitely the most fun cat we have ever had, but the strangest at the same time. I love him, and for anyone out there that doesn’t like cats, he’d be the perfect one to start you out on!

His eyes aren’t red, which mean he isn’t about to violently attack you. Kidding. Maybe.

My family always loves to find the stupidest videos on youtube and show them to each other, and this one guy, Liam Kyle Sullivan, has had a few that have made the list. My current favorite is his video, Cunningham Muffins, where a woman (Liam Kyle Sullivan) tries to give Johnny (Liam Kyle Sullivan) a muffin from her store. He plays all the characters in most of his clips, whether it’s a man or a woman. I don’t know where he comes up with these ideas, but some of his videos have become very popular. The first one that he came out with that became a hit was called “Shoes”. He plays a girl, Kelly, who has an obsession with shoes. He has turned this character into a pretty big deal, and you can see a montag of all the people who dressed up as Kelly for Halloween. You know you’ve made it big when people are dressing up like you for Halloween. Well, I’m going to post my favorite one on here, and the you guys can just search around and see what other weird things he has done. I hope you enjoy, beause this one was a huge hit with the family. Very, very strange. Cunningham muffins, just for you!

There is a new show on TLC about a family, The Duggars, who have 17 kids right now. And another on the way. Damn. It’s weird to watch them interact, they are all so happy and pleasant with each other. Very hard to believe that’s how they really are all the time. They are very conservative, they home school their kids, they don’t let them watch TV or get on the internet, and they can’t show any skin. I don’t know how you can have 17 kids and none of them object to that. And, they all their names start with a J. I think I would run out of J names that I actually liked after about 4. I wonder if when this couple met, they both knew what they were getting themselves into. If I met some guy out one night, and he told me he wanted to have as many kids as humanly possible and that he was going to make me carry them, I think I’d run away. I don’t know where people like this meet other people like this, if there’s some kind of dating web site for people that want to see how many kids they can have. I’m just gonna have to say they either met at church or got set up. But, I guess it’s what ever floats their boat. If they want to have a family as big as a kindergarten class then so be it. That just isn’t the life for me.

Okay, some Somalian pirates attacked and hijacked a chemical tanker with a North Korean crew aboard. They’ve turned the ship around and are now headed the other way, holding the entire crew as hostages. Woah. And, just yesterday, some pirates released a 36 person crew from a ship they had hijacked and held hostage for 6 weeks. They had been holding them hostage the entire time, and claim to have gotten over three million dollars to let them go. Some pirates attacked an American ship yesterday that they had already attacked and taken over just seven months ago, but they weren’t successful. And, now, a British couple is believe to be held captive in waters after being missing for awhile. So, all this news is coming out, and I’m sitting here just wondering… what the hell? This is what the news is about today? Pirates still exist? Why would you want to steal a chemical vessel? I can’t believe pirates are making the news on CNN. It’s time to retire, pirates, and stop being dicks and stealing other peoples’ boats for money. Go look for a map with an X on it and find some gold, or take care of your parrot and wooden legs. They’re estimating well over three hundred pirate hijacks and attacks for 2008, and claiming that this year has been much worse. That’s about a pirate hijack a day. I can’t believe this, I guess I need to google pirate hijackings and news more often if I want to know what’s going on in my world.

I love sushi. It’s the perfect meal. It’s never too filling, tastes good, and is healthy, depending on what type you get and what you put on it. The most common roll that I get is just the California roll, which is just cucumber, avocado, and crab meat. It is wrapped in seaweed (trust me it’s not as bad as it might sound if you’ve never tried it), then rolled in white sticky rice. You can put what ever you want on it. Some people like wasabi, which is pretty warm, I would describe it as a dry heat that cleans out your sinuses. Some people like ginger. A lot of people make their own special little mixture of all of this and soy sauce. It’s just one of those things you have to try and find out which way you prefer. I like just a bit of soy sauce, unless they have spicy mayonnaise available then I love that the most. California rolls are the most popular cause they are the most basic, so they are the cheapest ones as well usually. My favorite roll has eel in it, and I love to add cream cheese to any roll I get. I will try anything once, but I’ve found that I’m not big on rolls with tuna in them, I’ll try it but it’s never something I really enjoy. So, if you haven’t, go out there and at least try it. It’s not for everyone, but you’ll never know until you try it for yourself!

I love taking pictures. I’m always the one with the camera telling everyone to get together because it’s time for a photo op. I love taking tons and tons of pictures and then getting to look over all of them the next day to remember what we did the night before better. But, one my favorite thing to do is look at my pictures and try to focus in on the backgrounds. You never know what you’ll find when you’re in a crowded place with people you don’t know in the background of you pictures. Sometimes, you see people look like idiots cause they didn’t know they were going to be in the picture. Then, sometimes you see people look like idiots cause they knew they were going to be in the picture and they wanted to ruin it. The best are the embarrassing moments you accidentally catch in the picture. I post every picture I take onto the Facebook website because it’s like having an external hard drive that doesn’t take any space on my personal lap top. Just now, a friend of mine left a comment on some random pic I had taken over Halloween with a girl I didn’t even know. I just posted it, with out looking, only to find…

that there is a guy right by us with his hand in his pants. Umm… why? You are in a club, why would you ever put your hand down your pants in a public place? What the hell? How did I not even notice this? This picture is background humor gold.

I am the lightest sleeper in existence. If you stare at me when I’m sleeping it will wake me up. I can’t stand any type of lights in my room when I’m sleeping, so I can’t have an alarm clock in there. I have to put take over the little light on the power button on my TV. For many years, I had to put foil over my windows, but I got into trouble at my apartment complex so now I have thick black curtain to block out the evil sun. Depending on if I’m at home or at my apartment here in Lubbock, my door has to be open a certain width for me to be able to sleep. I prefer all other doors in the room to be closed. I don’t like my fan to be very high, because I sleep in my contacts and it dries them out. All of these things are slowly getting to be easier to deal with, but I still have a hard time sleeping if I’m disturbed. Especially now that I’m working the same hours every day it’s easier for me to go to bed and not be woken up in the middle of the night for stupid reasons because I’m actually tired. When I was younger it was really bad, I would get so mad if someone messed with how my door was open because I thought my cat wouldn’t be able to get into the room. Now, I don’t even have tape on my TV power button anymore! Look at me I’m slowly growing up.

Last night, I got off work and went to the brand new Barnes and Noble here in Lubbock that just opened. Then, I went and ate some dinner at Baker Brothers. So, and nice evening after work was in progress, when I got home and jumped into the shower. Minding my own business, as most do in the shower, I was in the middle of washing my hair when I heard a strange noise and felt seriously high pressured water hit my head. What. The. Hell. I turned around and it was spraying all over. My painting on the wall outside the shower was soaked. Everything in the entire bathroom was soaked, except for me. I still had shampoo in my hair, but I was determined to fix it so I didn’t have to take a bath. I tried to get the shower head to go back on, spinning it around and changing where I thought the different pieces went together, but after several tries I knew there was no hope in fixing it. I rinsed my hair and got out, gave up. It was frustrating, because I was just getting ready to relax and get ready to head into bed, and now I was pissed and cold from standing in there trying to fix it. I called the maintenance earlier from my apartment and they said it would be fixed by 5, I hope I can go home today and get into a real shower that works and doesn’t try to murder me by water pressure.

I graduated in college in May, and have been on my dad’s insurance the whole time I was there. My dad has awesome insurance that make it where I never had a pay an office visit co-pay, and lots of other awesome things like. That helped me out a lot in college, just taking care of a few more fees that I didn’t have the money for. So, when I graduated, the insurance company kicked me off. They kept me on it all through the summer, but when September rolled around they sent a letter requesting that I give them my schedule to prove I was a full time student, which I couldn’t do. So, off I was. I felt uncomfortable not having health insurance, I made it about two months before I freaked out and had to get on some kind of plan. I told my mom I was going to figure it out, and she decided to call my dad’s company and see how much it would be to just go ahead and keep me covered on that. It was going to be ridiculous, but, they told her that I had actually be covered by the insurance up until the day before she called. That really creeped me out, because that was the day I had had enough and decided that I was going to get it the next day no matter what. It made me feel better to know that I was covered all that time, but I wish I had actually known and destressed a bit. Now, I’ve got insurance going on my own plan that isn’t too expensive, and I feel a whole lot better about the whole situation.
