    <content type="html">I'm selling a whole bunch of stuff next weekend to raise some money for my horrendous bills.  I'm selling couches, tables, lamps, cds, dvds, books, and a whole lot more.  Pretty much everything I own but don't currently use.  If you need or want anything like this, or know someone who does, leave me a comment, and I'll give you a discount !!!  Come on, who doesn't love a good discount?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All the stuff I have is in really good condition, especially the furniture, so the prices might be a little more than you'd find with some ratted old couch on the side of the road.  But trust me, it's worth it!  It's not like they're hundreds of dollars or anything, but you know.  Not 10 bucks a pop.  End shameless plug.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But yeah, my v-day was actually really good, even though I'm single.  I took my mommy out to dinner at Sweet Tomatoes.  Which is a way yummy salad bar, with soups, breads, and all sorts of other goodies.  But this lady behind us in line at the bar kept EATING HER SALAD WITH HER HANDS and then reaching in and TOUCHING EVERYTHING IN THE SALAD BAR!!!!!  It was so gross!  Thank god she was behind us and not in front.  I almost puked.  Then she tried to use a coupon that expired in 2001 and she had written on the coupon to change it to 2007!  OMG what an idiot!  I totally reported her ass to the manager and she got kicked out haha.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.-Who lit Toph on fire?  (I'll feel so special if someone knows what that's from)</content>

    <content type="html">So there is this boy that I knew in high school that I had the hugest crush on haha.  Some of you on my f-list know him, but only because he travelled to your area of the country and that is how you and I met.  But anyway, I haven't heard from him in forever, and he never updates his lj.  I've tried looking on the devil website (myspace), but alas, still no luck.  We were pretty good friends in high school, and for about a year after, and then he just vanished.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So the point of the story is, I miss this boy, and I wish I knew where he was, how he was, or if he's even alive.  So if you have any idea how to help me, or if you know this boy, any help would be greatly appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P.S.-My brain must be rebelling against my father secretly because last night I had a very weird dream involving said boy's hands on my breasts and my dad walking in on us.  It was awesome.</content>

    <content type="html">I know, I'm just so terrible.  I haven't even checked to see how long it's been since my last update.  But yeah.  Life's pretty good.  I work at a doctor's office and I'm making some pretty nice money.  Though most of it I rarely see cuz I have so many bills to pay haha.  But this next paycheck should be all mine for the enjoying.  AND we have dish network with the anime network so I get to watch anime all day while getting paid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A couple weeks ago I met a really cute boy named Mak, but we never really talked.  But we hung out on Friday and went bowling and played pool.  There was a bunch of us that went and it was really fun, though he totally kicked my ass at both pool and bowling so I was kinda embarrassed haha.  Hopefully I'll get to hang out with him more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friends are being awesome, as usual.  Alyssa, I got your message, and I've been trying to get downtown to your house so we can chill and I can get my panda hat.  But I don't get off work til like 8 pm, and I usually don't want to go anywhere after that haha.  But if you call me and tell me if you're free this weekend, we should totally do something.  Like, for sure.  (Sorry I felt like acting like a valley girl.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I think that's all that's been going on recently.  My favorite football team is going to the Super Bowl (the Bears) and they get to play against my second favorite team (the Colts).  It's gonna be awesome.  Love you all!</content>

    <content type="html">Yeah I can't believe it either.  JUst felt like updating a bit on my stay in Texas so far.  If you have me added on Myspace, sorry for the repeat post.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm pretty much sick, I think.  The sickness feeling keeps coming and going so I can't tell.  Yesterday was filled with awesomeness.  Me and dad went shopping, I bought a new ipod skin.  Black with stars all over it.  Totally cute.  But I decided the white earbuds look lame with the completely black ipod now.  Maybe Grace (the_calzone) could send me a black pair :)  That'd be too cool.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We went to this completely asian district area in Dallas yesterday.  I was in heaven.  Sushi restaurants on every corner, gift shops, book and video stores, video game stores too.  It rocked.  Didn't purchase anything though.  We're gonna go back next week.  Stopped for sushi, always a good choice.  Dad got fried rice and possibly the best miso soup I've ever tasted.  I could've lived off it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was pretty much my day.  I have an interview at the Disney store on Monday haha.  But hey, I only need this job til after Christmas, so I think I could stomach it.  Speaking of Christmas, I need to revamp my list. I want so many things that I've never even heard of til about a week ago.  How I've missed you internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rockin football game in exactly: 5 hours</content>

    <content type="html">I'm alive.  Yes, it's hard to believe, but I am.  I'm currently in Texas with my Dad.  I was planning on staying here til summer, and I still might.  Life was becoming dull and repitious in SLC, so I decded a vac-ay was in order.  Maybe even an extended one.  But right before I left, things brightened up a whole lot, and when I got here, things weren't near as good as I'd hoped.  So i think I'm gonna stay through the first part of December then head back home.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So my life's been both good and bad since I last wrote in March.  Fell in love, got my heart broken, recovered.  Made a lot of friendships stronger, and diminished a few that just weren't going anywhere for me.  Being away from home has really made me realize just how happy I was there.  I've also missed having internet and cable.  (I don't have them at my house in Utah)  But I'm willing to give those up again as long as I can be back with the people I love.  Yes, I love my dad.  I wish my parents didn't live so far away from each other.  I wish I didn't have to choose between them.  But if I did, I'd have to choose my mom.  Because, when it came down to it, my dad chose his wife over me.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But enough about the sentiments.  Spent Halloween with Alyssa (papilia) and had a blast trick or treating and freezing my hands off.  And of course the sushi!  Saw Camilla (volscian) at Anime Banzai and was psyched.  Also saw James who I've totally missed.  Of course you gotta love the Ayame and the Kurtis.  Two of my fav's.  Taylor, eh couldn't care less about.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And that's basically where my life has been since March.  I hope to continue my adventures with my livejournal and I'll keep updating as long as I have internets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s.-Cal I totally miss you!  Comment if you miss me too ;)</content>

    <content type="html">i know i'm slacking off in this here journal thing.  just haven't thought i had much to say recently.  mike and i are technically no more, even though he says he wants to be with me and all that jazz.  but we can't be together right now cuz he's trying to get a whole lot of the rest of his life situated and he just wants to focus on that and then when everything else is good, he wants to focus on us.  so hopefully that's in the near future, cuz i'm not doing so well with the whole "just friends" concept.  especially since i am in love with him haha.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;work's good, me and my coworkers are plotting to get our boss fired.  so far, the plan is working mighty fine.  and aside from that, just hanging out with friends, cooking and trying new things.  life isn't great, but i know it could get worse.  so i'm happy it's not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;last night alyssa came over and helped me make creme brulee.  and it turned out really good this morning when i was putting the sugar on top to harden it.  but then my lighter i was using to melt the sugar died.  and i remember in my recipe it says i could broil it if i wanted.  so i put it in my oven and put it on broil.  bad idea.  the whole now gelatinous creme brulee melted all over inside my over, mixing in the sugar i had sprinkled on top, ruining my creme brulee.  or should i say, alyssa's and mine.  it was sad.  so now i'll have to go buy more supplies and try again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://us.st11.yimg.com/store1.yimg.com/I/cartoon-passion_1879_272315068"&gt;This will be mine!

I've broken into so many pieces, I can't even find them in the puddle of my tears.  I would love to keep writing beautiful phrases on my livejournal, but I can't even bring myself to do that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;I broke down and cut at work today.&lt;/b&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">lately i've been feeling really weird.  disoriented, tired, dizzy, sick to my stomach.  i don't know what's going on.  is it stress?  am i pregnant?  (ha yeah right)  am i sick with some weird asian hanta-virus flu?  so far, no answers.  been to the doctor's last week and test results came back fine.  which is great and all, but i sort of wish they would find something.  just so i could get it fixed.  i try to eat better, but when you're poor, food kind of takes a back seat to a roof over your head and gas to get to your job so you have a roof over your head.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i think finally after 3 years of not being in therapy, i'm ok with knowing maybe i should go back.  but when you've been in therapy from the ages of 8-17, it's hard to want to.  everything in life has been pretty ok, i guess.  work's way stressful, working 10 hour days, forgetting to eat certain important meals cuz you're busy trying not to get fired, and also dealing with the fact that you're so-called boyfriend/lover works with you and things aren't always so good as you would hope they would be.  i mean, things with mike are ok.  we have good days and bad days.  but i've come to notice the bad are beginning to out number the good.  too long of a story to go into now, so i will save that for a later entry when my head is less clouded.  and i've come to notice my social like is pretty much non-existent.  which i thought i didn't mind at first, but now it's starting to get to me.  what happened to the easy days of living at home, working part-time and not having so many cares in the world?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i need a vacation.</content>

    <content type="html">so last night around 11 i started having really bad chest pain and it was also moving down into my left arm.  so i went to the emergency room.  it was a weird change from having to take my mom there all the time.  i was in so much pain.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so they put me back in a room and run all these tests.  took a lot of blood from me, chest x-ray, EKG, the whole bit.  and then i have to lay there in writhing pain for the test results to come back.  i bet i was there for four hours or more.  and they had done all the tests pretty soon after i got there.  so i just laid in bed watching cops on tv and trying not to inject myself with too much morphine to end my misery.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the doctor comes back and says that they couldn't find anything seriously wrong with me and think i may have just had a minor heart attack of some kind.  scary ass shit.  so they let me go home around 4 or so.  couldn't sleep very well cuz my chest and arm still hurt.  they still hurt, but not as bad.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so that was my eventful night.  i did like riding around in the bed though when they had to take me to radiology.</content>

    <content type="html">the past few days haven't been too exciting.  i have been hanging out with my ex, kevin a lot.  and i don't know what's going on there.  but yeah.  it's still confusing and i know he still has feelings for me, but he just barely broke up with his g/f-(she cheated on him, that bitch)-so he just wants to start out like we did before.  which is fine by me.  i just keep realizing how much i miss him.  and i hope we do get back together.  and he told me that if we hung out a lot like we used to, then he was almost positive we would get back together.  so there is hope.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but enough about that.  my christmas was pretty cool.  besides my family, i had a pretty good time.  got lots of goodies.  but the best thing i got was my how to deal dvd.  i frickin love that movie.  i think i have watched it 6 times since i got it, haha.  i also got a mini fridge, a camera-(which i lurve), a really cool lamp, the hobbit, and really freackin awesome mini decorative ship, to name a few.  all in all, it was the best christmas-gift wise-in many years.  &lt;br /&gt;then that nite, i hung out with kevin and it was the nite of all the crazy ass snow.  and we got stuck like 4 times.  it was insane....insane &lt;b&gt;FUN&lt;/b&gt; that is.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s.-everyone wish my parents a happy ex-anniversary.  they would have been married 23 years today (the 27th).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;html&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.rampantgecko.com/paradox/siren.jpg"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are a siren. &lt;br&gt;&lt;font size="1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.rampantgecko.com/paradox/legendquiz.html"&gt;What legend are you?&lt;/a&gt;.

    <content type="html">ok so today was just so annoyingly stupid.  and last nite was, too.  besides the fact that i got drunk.  which was pretty fun until i spent half the nite wanting to die and puke but couldn't.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so today i got some cool stuff.  i'll list it later.  and kevin, my ex, is confusing me.  he broke up with his g/f, and i really wish i knew what he wanted from me.  i know he still has feelings for me, and vice versa.  but i just wish i knew what was going to happen.  god it's so fucking annoying and i'm in a really pissy mood because of it.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thank god for my how to deal dvd.  it's the only thing keeping me sane.</content>
