The Mist

Kody and I went to see The Mist tonight. Being derived from one of my very favorite Stephen King short stories, this was a must see for me.
I was not disappointed. The movie pretty much followed the story line the way Mr. King told it years ago. The end however was different. In the story we were not told the outcome, but left to fill in the blanks as we would like. The movie filled in the blank for us, and if I may say so in one of the most disturbing ways one could think of. After doing a little research, the movie ending apparently had the blessing of Mr. King before it was shot, but it just does not seem like his style. Anyway, the end left me feeling upset and disturbed. So I guess Mr. Darabont did his job. I liked the movie, liked it a lot in fact, but I liked the ending Mr. King allowed me to come up with on my own much better.

So you know, just in case you were wondering, Kody and I are not fighting, and are just fine. What was written on my blog was done so because at that moment it is how I felt, and that makes it's presence here justified, even if slightly unreasonable. As always, your comments and opinions are welcome

I guess since Thanksgiving is over, it is officially time to start celebrating Christmas. A bit early if you ask me, but hey who am I to argue with everyone. While this may not have come directly from the 80's, I'm sure none of you will question it's placement here. It rocks my face off!! Let the countdown to Christmas begin!!!!


Twisted Sister - Oh Come All Ye Faithful

Hi my name is..

Yeah, I am back from my hiatus once again. lets not go into details, you have heard it all before.

In case you were unaware, Kody and I have kitties now. The grey and white one is Trip (Kody's), and the orange and white one is Frodo (mine). They are shits, but we love them none the less.

Kody has really been going to town on his journal. I had no idea he had been updating so much. I especially enjoy the part about him being "chastised" about the many different ways the world will end all at once, not to mention my apparent hatred of all music with any social or moral meaning to it. Yep, enjoyed that one a lot.

I really have nothing to say. I should have waited till there was more. I will write again soon with something a little nicer.

Happy Birthday Kim! I missed calling you. I am really sorry!

October

October 15th is Blog Action Day. This year's theme is Unite For The Environment. You are asked to blog on the 15th and discuss in some way shape or form the environment. Visit http://www.blogactionday.org/ if you want to know more!


Yes, it is October! October is my favorite month, and so far this year has not disappointed.
Lexy and Tony were married this past weekend. It was fantastic. I am so happy for both of you, and that you wanted to share your day and memories with Kody and I. All your hard work and planning paid off, and the ceremony and reception were perfect. Love you guys!

My mind working the way it does, I started thinking about Kim and how I missed her wedding. If only I could go back, that is one of the things I would change. I felt the same way when I attended Sara's wedding back in July. It's just not right, but my own fault nonetheless.

The big move is rapidly approaching! I reserved the U-Haul, and I believe all the utilities have been dealt with. Now it is just a matter of finishing up with the packing and getting this place squeaky clean, which I have not allowed a lot of time for unfortunately with work and everything else.

Tony seems to be getting past the cold he caught in Kansas slowly but surely. This is a relief!! I have been so worried about him. I am scared for him in general. So many things unknown, so many things left unsaid. I wish I understood why things like this have to happen. I guess I lived in a bubble for far to long. Grandma definitely popped that bubble. It is just to soon to deal with this again, and on such a grand scale.

I guess that is all I have for now. Now that it has started to cool down a little, get out there and enjoy Fall. Winter will be here all too soon! It makes me sad that Halloween is only one day, so lets start celebrating now shall we.....

Marilyn Manson - This Is Halloween (From The Nightmare Before Christmas)

What is wrong with you bitch?

One of the Three Divas has fallen ill. Kody noticed while looking in the tank that Miss Goldie had some red spots along her back and stomach and that her dorsal fin was laid back and deteriorating. After some online investigation Kody decided it was most likely hemorrhagic septicemia. I went to Petco and picked up a bottle of antibiotic. Hopefully after treating for seven days the issue will be resolved. Seeing how we do not have a hospital tank, my main concern now is Miss Goldie spreading her cooties to Miss Lucy, or God forbid Miss Bette.

Kody will be bringing some boxes home with him tonight, which means I can start packing tomorrow! Yay. I actually like to pack, it is the moving and unpacking of said boxes I really hate.

I think I have found a full size bed for the spare room. It makes me very happy to have a place other than the couch for people to sleep.

I have decided that I am going to do absolutely NOTHING today! I am in kind of a funky mood which actually started yesterday afternoon, plus I have been really stressed out and tired lately. My stepdad has been on my mind a lot, and also my grandma. I have not been sleeping well which is making matters worse. I am going to try to relax, take a deep breath, and get in a better place before this turns into something major.


Roxette - Dangerous

California stop

At least, that's what the police said. I got a ticket tonight. Failing to stop at a stop sign. It makes me really sad. I am not sure if I came to a complete stop or not because I was really tired, but I am guessing since the cop said I did not, that he must be right. Oh well it's only money and a shot at my dignity. Since nobody was hurt and it was a moving violation I can just pay the ticket and skip going to court.

I bought a new kitchen table today. It is nice. Kinda wish I had saved the money now, but such is life. I would have blown the money on something down the road if I had not fucked up tonight.

I hate Fergie. I mean I really hate the bitch! I bet her big girls don't cry ass would bawl like a baby if you pistol whipped her! Grrrrrr!!!!

When I got home I sat in the patio chair and it was wet. My ass was soaked.

Aren't I just the luckiest bitch that ever lived.


Rod Stewart - Some Guys Have All The Luck

A new home

Well, we officially have the townhouse on Ventura. We move in October 15th. I am excited, and at the same time dreading it. I hate moving. It is a HUGE pain in the ass (as I'm sure Lexy and Tony can tell you). Granted, it is like a mile from where we live now, and Kody has mentioned several times the possibility of renting a moving truck so everything can be condensed down into one load. That would be nice. Perhaps I will check into pricing.

Other than that my life is nothing more than work and sleep as of late. I am in the tangles of trying to quit smoking again. Right now it is not going so good.

I have nothing else. I hope to see everyone this weekend!


Madonna - True Blue

Where did they go, I miss them so, seems like it's been forever........

since they posted a fucking blog entry, ha ha ha. Just kidding. I am having Lexy and Tony withdrawals. We did not get to see them last weekend due to them moving into their new house, which is exciting!! Mix that with no new journal entries and you have a sad Ryan. Oh well, I know how moving is. I hope to see you two this weekend, as well as Mike and Mary!

Not much going on right now. We may be moving next month. I found a cute townhouse over by the mall. It has more room, and it allows pets! It is on Ventura, which I don't know a lot about. The area itself is mostly all townhouses and duplexes, but it is surrounded by some very nice houses, and I think it holds up with the general nice west end atmosphere. I will investigate this more.

I want to win the lottery, buy the house next door to Mike and Mary, and live happily ever after (or at least for a couple of years until they build their new house) with my animals. I would have another house in Colorado and spend half the time out there so I could see Kim and Nick more often. I really miss them! Just a random thought.

I want satellite! I am sick of Mediacom!!
