Journal 7 - Price is wrong bob...
15 years ago
General
Dear Journal/Readers,
I am in such a good mood at the moment. I have to start off by saying that watching the price is right has always been a fun experience for me. Rather I do prefer the Bob-barker era Price is Right over the Drew Carey version - but that's mostly because I never really was a huge fan of Drew. He's not bad but watching the Price is Right with Bob was kind of part of my mornings growing up (especially if I stayed home sick).
Well what has me on that kick? Well I was "youtubing" and I came across this series of videos revolving around Price is Right fail moments and win moments where people had done some truly epic things in the shows history. Like the guy who guessed on the dollar exactly right in the final showcase showdown - or this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QezIBLK5WHg&feature=related . Personally, I'd have wanted to punt that guy off the stage. I'd be like "You ass!!" Then there were the instances where people were bidding against one another in the initial bidding game and ya know someone would bid like 1000 dollars and someone would bid 1001 dollars just to piss the fuck out of the guy or woman next to them, then a fight breaks out. Now see those were hilarious cause Bob never missed his marks and always hit the nail on the head. Or better yet, you'd get those women that would kiss bob on the cheek then occasionally you get those guys that kiss Bob too and bob is just like "Well!" in a playful dry humorous voice.
Well the videos went on and on. I saw a video of a guy on the big wheel who just had to beat 10 cents. Anything could have beat it...but the guy spun .05 cents. He span a nickel! I was...needless to say stunned. Or there was the guy who spun the wheel, and proposed to his girlfriend in the audience, just in time to hit the 1.00$ prize and win 1000 bucks. These are the little moments that make life worth living. Seeing those nifty little moments on these shows.
Well life seems to be doing okay. I'm kicking back right now after having (perhaps more than I should have) Taco Bell for dinner. Since finding out I'm diabetic, I have been weening myself off my sweets and bad foods, it's a slow trip but I'm getting there. I had 2 shrimp tacos and 8 taquitos for dinner tonight, so I think I probably gorged myself quite thoroughly . But...it was so good (whine).
I've discovered (well not so much discovered more found out the name of) a radio station that had been playing on the Ordo's stream in Second Life. It plays absolutely epic movie soundtracks all day long. It's the perfect thing for me to listen to when I'm playing WOW (which by the way I'm now level 72!). It's Cinemix.us if you wanna check it out. It's like...All movies, including animes and classic movies. I've heard Indiana Jones, Batman, Spirited Away, Princess Moninoke, Crimson tide, Edward Scizzorhands...it's epic. OOo the Dark Crystal theme is playing right now.
Work was another slow week, but then again I mentioned that already.
As for
sephirem23 moving in goes, we managed to get more of the basement painted and over the next 3 days he's going back and forth moving in, eventually rending a U-haul or something to do one big move. I look forward to getting it all over and done with. Moving has been one of the biggest causes of anxiety in my life (even when it's not me moving). I've had to move many times as a kid: I moved from my house on Morris Ave. as a kid in West Covina into my Grandmother's house in B. Hills california, then to San Diego, then to Portland, then from my Dad's in Portland to my Mom's. Then my Mom's to a new house, then to yet another new house, then back into the house before that, then to the Job Corps...and so on and so on. I hate moving, just cause I like being able to be in one spot and know where I'm going to be. I'm just glad sephirem23 is going to be all taken care of.
As for RP goes, my husband's character in my private WOD game that I run with him met Final Death. Unfortunately It was a combination of me overpowering a baddy and him biting off more than he could chew. I'm frustrated with the whole situation. As much as I love my husband he's a very demanding and difficult person to please (which he admits as a fault). He likes things to be done a certain way, and I like to wing-it sometimes. I suppose WOD (White Wolf) just isn't a system that I can properly rp with Randy. To date, I've only ever really done one good campaign that went from start to finish that didn't wind up with anyone getting pissed. That was his Kayla Green campaign. That game ended up with him eliminating the human race and repopulating it with werewolves.
Eh. On the bright side, least he was just "upset" and didn't go into a full on tantrum like has been his custom when he doesn't get his way. I just try to Chillax and not let what he says get under my skin. It's part of being married I think, just letting some things go and picking your battles.
BTW, I want to see "How to train your dragon" so much. It looks adorable, and funny. Well perhaps even sexy but that's because I'm a furry. I mean -tch- come on!
I received many compliments today over my tank skills on WOW today. I got a rather good group while running Uthgart (spelling?) keep. I tanked it and people said I did much better. It's definitely uplifting to know I can kick fanny. I'm going to have to keep working at it.
Final thoughts? Um Water rocks! I'm so glad I'm off soda now. I have so much more energy that I've kicked sprite full-time. I maybe have 1 Sprite a week or two weeks, otherwise it's all H2O. I love it, it's so much healthier for me.
Anyway take care yall

I've been addicted to soda for almost my entire life, but cutting carbs AND sugars worked out good in the long run. When I need to cheat on my diet, I just get some carbs and then I'm calm, but never once cheat on the sugar one :D Todays the forth day without sugar and I've barely even noticed it at all, when before about 15 hours without sugar would start showing symptoms. :p
