It’s Christmas Eve. I need to stop Google-stalking my ex.
On a lighter note, there’s a website that keeps updating where Santa is. At 10:30pm, it said he was in Paris, France. Pogo complained he was “never going to get here”. Then at 11pm, he was in New York. A few seconds ago, he was in St. Louis. At that announcement, she jumped up from the table and rushed off to bed. ha ha.
I am home now, and loving every bit of it. =) Well, every bit of it other than the fact that I now have to study for my final tomorrow, and that Dennis isn’t here. But other than that, everything is perfect and the way things should be. =)
The good part is I don’t have anything that requires a lot of antibiotic maintenance. Though I was sent home with two stitches, criss-crossing a small incision on my abdomen. It’s virtually painless if I don’t move! =) But other than that, I’m stuck in bed, watching the Christmas lights of the neighbors twinkle and sparkle in the distance. I’m supposed to get the stitches yanked Tuesday morning, and that’s bad because we were supposed to go to the Winter Lights Festival Monday night. I’ll try to tough it out though! =)
I do have some bad news to report back on. While I was in the hospital, there was nothing on but old re-runs of TV shows from the 1950s. I seen a Jack Benny Show re-run that had Liberace on it. Sometime between the time I seen that show and the next morning, about thirty Liberace MP3s got downloaded onto my hard drive, and then uploaded onto my phone. When I got home today, those MP3s multiplied to my other iPods. So I am now an official Liberace Addict and Junky. There’s no such thing as Liberace Junkies Anonymous, is there? =)
I was told that I probably have a viral infection in my nose (postnasal drip) and I need to have my doctor see me to be sure. I’m having trouble swallowing and I can’t take my meds properly. Not that the night nurse brought them to me last night or anything. =-p
After the doctor looks at me tomorrow, I can go home!!!!!!! This has been the longest week of my life, and I’m glad it’s over. I want to go home and have Christmas. I want to be able to go see Dennis. I want to see the little ones, and even the big, sloppy dogs. I want to go Christmas shopping and I want to wrap presents. I want to go to the Winter Lights Festival and have a small tree-trimming party.
I’m starting to spike a fever. A slight fever. 99.1ºF. Almost a whole degree above normal!! I think I need to eat something.
I’m getting things done today! Not really though. I’ve been up an hour and I tried to work on getting another .nu in order, but the server went down. It must be International Server Down Day somewhere. I almost got jaded, while I was looking through some archives from 2000. I was so giddy and hopeful back then. The world, and the internet, were a great place. It’s getting close to the anniversary of the insane man who was ripping me off, and I think he’s been requesting my old Blogger stuff because every now and then I get Blogger requests for my username and URL. WTF? No, just no. There’s another anniversary coming up, too.
Seven years ago, two totally different people wanted both my sites when I said I was closing them down. Huh? To be honest, I said I was closing the sites, but they said they wanted my domain names, if I wasn’t going to use them. When I asked where to send the billing info, they both said I should keep paying for them. Huh?xs. One was an 11 year old girl and another was a 27 year old woman. Looking back, I could see that an 11 year old wouldn’t know anything about domains and things of that nature, but someone who is (now) my age? That’s a different story. When I re-opened this site in 2004, she went postal, claiming I “hijacked her domain name”. A year later, she came back with another site, making remarks that I had stolen her domain name again. She changed her story a little bit. This time she was an only child, when on her other page, she had “baby brothers”. People are strange.
These days, I pretty much ignore people like that. I had a couple of people contact me this year asking if I was ever going to use this site. Um, yeah, I am. Just because I don’t update it every day (then) doesn’t mean I don’t want it. Geepers. =D
I’m also not gonna do that whole “2000 EntreCard” thing. I might put up cards on my other blogs, but it’s just too time consuming.
I think I’ll go back to filling out Christmas cards. Ack! It isn’t even 9am yet!
