The Post Christmas Post
Posted by Morrighan on December 29, 2006 at 12:19 am | Last modified: October 17, 2013 4:22 pmI’m proud of myself – I kept it together this year! I do have an internal file of snide comments and snarky comebacks that I didn’t verbalize. I even had $20 in my wallet…rather than being so far into the debt-hole I wouldn’t see my way out for another eight months. Nope – I am only in the debt-hole up to my neck, and only because of one cash gift and one substantial loan from Mr. Burns. He knows who he is..LOL
And for that matter, Christmas isn’t actually over yet, for us anyway. The girls and I are going to have a full, all-out Christmas dinner just for ourselves either Saturday or Sunday. I’d hoped to put it off until the rest of the presents arrive in the mail (yay for more prezzies, since I didn’t think far enough ahead..and well, ya know how it is.), but we’re not quite turkey’d out yet. See, this year – there were no leftovers from either celebration that made it home with us. I won’t go on about the family do – I made it through the day and didn’t say more than one comment. I assume if there were any leftovers of any quantity, the pod requested and received them.
This is not the place for pod posts though, I use Myspace for that, and hopefully she won’t come back from her training trip to Saskatchewan. Then I won’t have to vent at all.
Yes, Christmas was good. The girls are ecstatic with their bounty of Bratz and Bratz related materials, the games, the movies and Rhia is google eyed over her new clothes. Unfortunately Care can’t google eye over hers…they don’t fit. I wish I could have stressed the “don’t buy the girls clothes for gifts” thing a little harder, but oh well. It’s done and Rhia has double clothing gifts as Care has given her the ones she didn’t fit into.
I love my new kitchen gadgets, and we’ve deep fried, grilled and milkshaked our way into a form of coma only a good horror movie could budge us out of. I’m attempting to read Lisey’s Story in hard cover from that very same Mr. Burns, who perhaps isn’t as Burnsy as he seems at first glance. AND he’s taking us electronics shopping in the next month or so – we’re going to take advantage of his discount and his brain. ;) LOL
My mother has survived her accident and although she is in continual pain, the drugs seem to be helping now. Or something anyway. Perhaps it was the fact I won’t play into her pity parade any longer that she didn’t pull the pain card. Perhaps it was the fact I have had that very pain and she told me it was nothing – and I called her on it. Either way – she sucked it up and behaved mostly like a grown woman for one night. Yay for her!
I’d like to say something nice about the twit, but I can’t think of anything. I’d like to think he’s going to snap out of the crotch-coma he’s in once again, but…I also don’t think that’s going to happen any time soon. If he thinks he’s bringing that pod to the conference, he’s got another thing coming..although I’m sure she’ll come up with some way to fuck that up too.
And for the record, no I did not put any thought into her gift. Why? At least I didn’t give her the cursed candles…
Yet…
Can you hear that? That’s Morrighan, laughing her ass off. For once, I agree and laugh too…
And to all, a good night!

New and Improved
Posted by Morrighan on December 9, 2006 at 2:02 am | Last modified: December 9, 2006 2:03 pmWell, I’ve finally switched the site over to the new format, and hopefully everyone likes it. If you don’t – too bad, I do and I’m the one paying for it. If you want me to change it – well, hon, I do have a paypal account and you can contribute some fundage.
I may or may not swap themes with the seasons as I had been doing for so long. I happen to like this one a great deal and even went so far as to modify the header image to add the site name.
I’m also slowly bringing all of my articles here; most of my work is still up at the now-lime-green Suite101, and as they’d broken the contract I signed, *all of them*, I’d asked for removal. It is now there without my express permission – the contract was violated by THEM before I did it by pointing that very fact out to them. They are in the wrong – ask a lot of others. They are in effect, committing copyright infringement. They have removed the course content though, and gone so far as to delete my member account. Hopefully over time, the entirety of my work will reside here, and not on a thief’s server. And they sold the rights to my ebooks of compilation of my work to the asshole that began that program. They all get the money for my work – not me!
Not all of the articles are kid-friendly, so I warn you now – don’t email and complain about it later. I have a kids section – it’s clearly marked in the Network listings. Find it – it says Sprites Pagan Kids. Yes, I’ve become an old grouch in the last while, don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it!
AND for those who have emailed asking when I’ll get the courses up here – I am now free to do so, and have recently received a huge amount of domain space to do it on. Once I figure out the software, I’ll get busy on that. As always, Drak ROCKS! Through all the server moves and issues with coding and email, Jen Bryan has stood strong and shown the world what a woman running a business can do. She is, in my opinion, the epitome of a goddess!
So have at it – lots of pages to visit, and lots more to come. If you have anything you’d like to see here, or if you have a rant you’d like to share with me, you know how it goes. Nope – don’t email me. I have a spam killer running and anything not specified doesn’t come through.
