It's www.positivefusion.com you put in 3 words & it comes up with a list of available domain names using those words, it $15 to register for 1 yr and they have some hosting packages too.

last night i saw my puppy dreaming...
okay i am sure that most of you know that noah is actually a three year old dog. but he acts like a puppy, its difficult for me to call him a dog. well last night he was growling and mumbling in his sleep. one leg would twitch. then all four would wiggle. i bet you he was chasing my mother's cat sabeine. (i cant spell at all. heh.)
and regarding the beloved friday five. i just cant bring myself to do them. sorry. it kinda reminds me of those trooper things. by the way, do they even exist anymore? i cant seem to find the website, and i know that even i linked to it saying i would never post one on my site... i cant even find my own link. damnit... help please. so i dont loose any more of my mind
and in further news a co-worker of mine is making a website. i wont link to it until she is ready. right now its just a construction page with a link or two anyway... but i cant wait until she is happy with it. i am sure that it will be great.
and in other news, i still get survey responses from here, my old website. it hasnt been updated since june 9, 2000. and the update was to tell you to come to this site. i dont get it...

Yea I'm building a website alright....I did what you said and went and got me some greymatter & I come to find out that my wonderful little server doesn't support forms, perl or cgi....the guy at tech support didn't even know what they were...so i question whether he actually had any computer knowledge or was just getting paid to look up information for me as a typical "customer service phone rep"....either way by the time i got off the phone i was plenty pissed. and what did i do??? i went and bought a domain...and i got a web host too, so now that i'm paying for it i have to do it for real. i let you know more when i get it running.

friday five is run by heather at http://www.smattering.org/ - there is now a seperate domain, the address is http://www.fridayfive.org/ - but i think it just redirects somewhere.i do them sometimes, when i have time, like the questions, or just feel like it. something like "too much of one thing....."

good morning..
today is off to a great start. its 8:15 and i am our of the shower, dressed, and all ready had breakfast. i dont want to forget my checkbook. its friday and i need to cash my check. i finally got my everyone poops and my new phish cd. no more spending. i need to get my credit cards paid off. and just sitting there innocently in my planner. no thats not an invitation. any way... this weekend looks free and clear. i dont know what the hell we will be doing. maybe catching up on some sleep. i couldnt sleep monday or tuesday night. on tuesday eric was talking in his sleep... "knives, forks, spoons, whatever..." yeah. i didnt know what the hell he was talking about, but it got me to giggle.
on a link stealing note check out findyourspot.com if you want to know the best place for you to live... link thanks to laura.
netscape
just a quick little something about netscape. it feels so good to use it again. i missed it. it might have to become my new browser. at work i use internet explorer, even though i cant explore the internet. eh maybe someday soon.
my class starts today.
and i still need to get my book for the class, which is history of american art. usa all the way... hmmm. you know something, i didnt know that my school offered that class. this semester is the first i have heard of it.
for all of you that enjoy fine art let me make a suggestion. go visit oohbetty.com for some really wonderfully done desktop themes. and they are free! what else could a girl ask for? right now i am currently sporting vincent van gogh's starry night. (and on a side note, i am still dissappointed in the united states postal service, i want my poop book.)
on another note. today i downloaded the newest version of netscape. now back when i first started with the net i always used netscape. but when i started designing my own website i discovered that internet explorer gave you more artistic options. in other words i could make prettier websites, as long as they were viewed in internet explorer. well no longer my friends. my site looks practically the same in the newst verison of netscape as it does in internet explorer. in short they have improved netscape a lot. in fact i saw something about it being able to be skinned? i will have to take a look at that. and um. well it has a bar at the bottom and it told me that it took 56.79 seconds for my page to load fully. hmmm. thats a long time. but then again i am working with a ghetto modem. perhaps someday soon i will know the pleasures of a faster connection. until then i will read a book until the page loads.
i hate the mail
i havent received my everyone poops book yet. i havent received my phish cd yet. i have not gotten my new underwear. and i havent gotten real simple yet, and i have seen it at the stores. i am not happy. but i am happy because i have a new muffler, shocks, catalytic converter, and um, an oil change.
snowy saturdays...
i love it when it snows, but then the day or two after i want it all to melt. i love the winter, but if its going to be this damn cold it could at least snow. but of course i want summer tommorrow too. i love all seasons. and i am rambling on about nothing. hmmm.... I HAVE A NEW MUFFLER. IT DOESNT MAKE NOISE ANYMORE. ITS WONDERFUL. I AM SO HAPPY. CAN YOU TELL I AM HAPPY? I AM HAPPY.
bestbuy.com is a big fucking rip off and is really pissing me off. i ordered something on monday and paid for next day delivery. um. i havent gotten anything yet. i hate them. they piss me off. i called to bitch about and it the first phone rep was a snotty little dick. and wouldnt let me speak to a supervisor. i work in a place like that and he was a lying sack of shit and i would have failed him on that call. anyway the second woman that i spoke too finally made me some what happy, but not entirely. there is processing time for bestbuy.com orders. and i was not aware of this until yesterday. i hate them. die bestbuy.com die.
so we finally got max payne. but that doesnt change my feelings about stupid best buy. i hate them.
what on earth, where on earth? where did you go?

and so today my world it smiles....
there should be a full moon out tonight, with the way the world is acting.
are you bored? take the typing test link via sherry.
a day off.
today is my day off. school starts next tuesday. so today other than sundays will be my only day completely off for a while. i know that i will have less time to update this will all of the work i will have in the class that i am taking. so today i will be doing what ever makes me happy. i want to get all of my laundry done. and i will keep on it, so that way it doesnt over flow onto the floor and get covered with dog hair. he sheds faster than i can vacume. (did i spell that right?)
last night eric and i went to visit my grandparents. while we were there i mentioned something about buying everyone poops. and she asked if there was a book about farting. so when i got home last night i ordered the gas we pass, the story of farts and had it shipped to her.
okay so i finally got my stupid scanner to work. (i still dont have a digital camera, but it was that or a new muffler. i told my mom i would like the camera for my birthday, but the more that i think about it i would rather have a new desk for my computer for my birthday... but lets not get ahead of ourselves, its not until april...) anyway as i was saying... my scanner worked so i scanned my ring. check it out. he designed it himself (he drew a picture for the jeweler. the stone is citrine, because amber is way to soft to cut.) its beautiful. every time i see it i smile and think of him.... the quatliy of the image could be better, but you get the idea.
psst... i finally found a decoder. if you already knew about it, then i am slow. and who the hell cares?

your ring is so beautiful addie. i am all about being a non-conformist, though i wouldn't turn my nose up at a 2 carat diamond ring in a platinum setting ;-)who am i kidding? if i ever want a 2 carat ring, i'll have to buy it myself!
anyway, tell eric he has excellent taste!
Posted by laura @ 01/18/2002 06:37 PM CST
this is the last one.
i have noticed that as of recently i do a lot of online surveys. and i am making a public annoucement. this will be the last one that i ever post to my weblog. i cant promise that i will never do one if the urge comes to me, but you will never know.

thank you for your attention.
my job is a joke.
and i dont care who knows. i will tell all of my co-workers. i will tell all of my bosses. i will shout it from the mountain tops. on wednesday when i go back to work i want to speak with my um most direct boss? did i say that correctly? if not who cares. and of course it is about money. i know i am expendable. i know this very well. i also know that i took this new position because it would involve a raise. something of which i have not yet recieved. now i do understand that recently the entire building was given $1.00 raise. i know that is a lot. i know i am worth that plus another dollar. that is what my position gets. one dollar more. to start out with. i am a college student. i need money. i dont have time to waste doing more work and not getting paid for it. i would rather sit and answer phones. that way in between calls i can do school work. i cannot do school work now. i am constantly working. and i am rambling because i need to get it off my chest.
thanks to everyone for the congrats. i am truely happy. i dont know when the wedding will be. we have to start planning. and parents have to start saving.
tommorow is going to be a funfilled multicultural day.
for christmas i bought eric tickets to see wreastling. that starts at 7:30pm. now it was eric's idea to go to the city for the day. i was happy with that idea. it will be the first time since i have been there since 9-11. but what made me even more excited was that eric wants to spend the day at the met. he really does make me smile everyday.
happy birthday colleen! i dont know if you are going to read this ever. but happy birthday nonetheless. and i still think you should have somesort of online thing for me to read. check out diaryland.com or something. and its finally winter. its snowing and has been all day and all last night. happy winter everyone. (i already had 2 snow ball fights.)

Hey,I have to agree with you, your job is a joke, that would mean so is mine. Come on, lets tell everyone else HOW to do their job...like they listen to us. About the raise...freeze or not, if they were going to put you in the position, they should have made sure they could pay you. OH yea AND what did BIG boss man say??...I could have been fired for changing my hours....don't do me any favors....I put in a resignation to leave my position and guess what...they asked me to stay...so how is it that they could have fired me for a schedule change??? I know what our problem is....we aren't fucking the boss!!! (I heard non of them were worth a fuck any way) By the way I do have to tell you, I miss sharing a desk with you, you left my shit alone and cleaned up after your self. The little boy who came after you is in for an ass kicking!!

happy new year.
so i couldnt help it. i always say that this will be my last test. but they amuse me and lately i have seen some really great ones:
| alyssa | You're a very open and adventurous person, you've been around the block and back several times. Yet, as all people do, you realize that this life style cannot go on forever and need to settle down. Hopefully as more time progresses you'll stick to one gender and not be so greedy! |
in other more important news... on christmas eve eric asked me to marry him. he took me to my favorite restraunt. we sat by the window so that we could see the lights on the river. we had lobster and champagne. he is so wonderful. he couldnt wait to ask me as soon as we sat down he took my hand. i love him so much, that made me feel so special. he designed the ring himself and has been saving up for a long time... its a citrine (he wanted to make it amber because thats my favorite stone, but amber is too soft to cut, so he picked out citrine which is very close in color...) with two diamonds on each side. and its in white gold because he knows that i hate gold gold. when i get a picture of the ring i will post it here.
