11:58 am - Since I suck at updating... I'll write a REALLY good one.
I am officially married.
Jon and I had a small ceremony that we designed ourselves (complete with handwritten vows) that was primarily performed by my roommate, who is an ordained Minister. It took place out in the countryside by a small fire around 10pm at night. We did have a photographer who took 3 rolls of pictures (an old friend of mine from high school whos VERY good at photography) so we should have some pictures to share in the future.
We wanted something small after discussing the fact that we didn't want to be completely in debt before even starting a life. It turns out, the way we did the ceremony was beautiful and perfect for us in every way and its all in thanks to Trey, Karly, Terry, and Melissa. I just want to officially thank those 4 for being a part of it all. =)
Anyhow, Jon also changed his name officially with the state, so after next week I will be otherwise known as Samantha Lockwood.
There WILL be a small, no wait...LARGE..very LARGE party sometime soon...possibly around Spring Break? This will be the "reception", as it were. I'll let everyone know ahead of time, I swear =)

06:23 pm - Happy Merriness of the Ho Ho Season! So, Merry Ho Ho to me..I got my car back on Monday. Not before I had to make a BIG deal out of it. So, forgive me while I run down on this: I called them going..hello wheres my car. Service guy transfers me to parts..apparently he cant walk the 5 paces to the parts counter door and ask. So parts guy says..yeah we gave them the tranny already and we dont give it to them till theyre ready for it. So i kindly asked the guy why service would transfer me to him. He didnt have an answer for that, so I requested I be transfered back to service. I get the same dipshit whos like..hold on..*hold music for 3 minutes*..oh youll have to talk to your service agent whos not here right now..she'll probably be back tomorrow. Now at this point, I'm thinking..you people have had my car for 5 days now..and you have the tranny...but because my service agent (the person who set up my service) isnt there...you cant fix my fucking car? Excuse me. WTF please. I was like..well i was told that it would be Friday, and it wasnt and i was vaguely told Monday or Tuesday. Now, ive gone without a rental thinkin it would be done today. Dipshit says..oh so you werent given a time for it to be done. I tell him no as nicely as i could muster at the moment and I then proceeded to ask nicely if there was a service manager to speak with. Dipshit puts me on hold yet again for like 3 more minutes. He then says..itll be done today. Im like..end of business today? He says yes. So i take this at face value.
Get there at 4:15..hang around for 30 more minutes while they clumsily finish my car..bitch at the counter tells me the keys are in it..they arent..service guy has to run out and give them to me. And now..my so called "new" transmission feels much more shitty than the old one. I have GOT to go bitch at some point. I'm just holding onto the fact that maybe it has to break in a bit. eh.
Other than that..things are abso-tively excellent! Taking the pisshead cat to my moms for an attitude adjustment for an indefinite amount of time on Tuesday. (Still hafta wrap her presents) Jon and I both have to work Monday. Poor baby is working the whole weekend..12 hours today and 10 tomorrow =(. The money will be good..thats the only good thing.

07:50 pm - Thank you HondaCare extended warranty! So like..I know I've been posting a lot of quizes..but honestly its cuz there hasn't been much to talk about really. I was sick for a week..just now getting over that. Man, I haven't ever lost my voice that bad. But I'm doing MUUCH better now. I'm positive I just jinxed myself...
My car is fucked. Well, not totally fucked. So there was this recall back last summer that I had to have this oil kit put on my transmission to keep it from overheating and blowing up (hooray for honda for catching that). I get this thing put on and stuff is good, right...till yesterday. (Keep in mind, I only have like 22k miles on my car..and I LOVE my baby car) I'm driving home and my car decides to bank at like 6000 rpms on its own trying to get to second gear. I'm like WTF?! So I drive carefully home. Well, needlesstosay I was feelin so shitty that I didn't wanna deal with it, so I went ahead and drove back to work this morning. And low and behold..it happens again. I park at Hell, get out, go in and call Honda.
Honda lady goes "oh yeah..thats the transmission..call this number(^towing company number here) and tell them that you want it towed." So I ask, "Does my extended warranty cover this?" She answers, "Oh yeah. Completely. We will even give you a rental car for 3 days." Inside..I'm jumping up and down. This is why I paid out the ass for the warranty!
At any rate..new tranny..50/50 chance it'll be done tomorrow. If not, it'll be Monday, but they have a rental waiting for me. What do you know...insurance of some sort I actually can use! Honda service..without Honda quality..I mean really..Honda is NOT known for shitty stuff. This tranny issue is all over the net..apparently for a while..Honda didn't wanna own up to it. Boy, am I glad they did for me. Cuz..there was one time..in high school..when I had a new tire put on and the guys who did it, used a crowbar to pry my wheel covers off..broke one..and when I get there to pick it up..tried to tell me that it was like that when I brought it in..well..lets just say I made that fucker go buy me a new set while I waited patiently in the parking lot. And that was just wheel covers...
I didn't REALLY wanna hafta do that to Honda...for a tranny. =D
Other than "Merry fuckin Christmas..you need a new transmission", and being sick and blah for a week, everything is going great. =)
I'm hoping to start the whole quitting smoking process for my New Year's Resolution. I figure, I quit soda and coffee..two things I thought I couldn't live with..last year..I can do cigs..I'm sure of it. *crosses fingers*
I am so looking forward to the last week of the year and being able to do nothing and anything I want. New Years party..or D&D for a week?...hmmmmm Current Mood: giddy Current Music: Earshot - Misery

Last Wednesday I helped dementia138 hide a body (-173 points). In November I had a shoot-out with rival gang lords on the 5 near LA (-76 points). Last Tuesday nerdleton and I robbed a bank (-50 points). In May I committed genocide... Sorry about that, raequinn (-5000 points). In October I bought porn for dystra_arimis (10 points).
Overall, I've been naughty (-5289 points). For Christmas I deserve a moldy sandwich!

10:03 am - Work Blahs and Thankfulness I have to work this holiday to make up for some floating holiday time I took off earlier in the year. It's disheartening to have to be in this evil cave place, but the good news is, I have reworked the holidays for myself this year. I think I will celebrate Thanksgiving not by food as usual, but by reminding myself of all the things I am thankful for. They are as follows, in no real particular order:
1. My love, Jonathan, for healing my heart, changing my life, and loving me the way he does while having high hopes that everything will work out in the end. 2. Karly, my best friend, for being there for me for over a decade, but most of all for having the strength to do the things she needs to do be happy and to watch the princess Darcy grow up. 3. My mom, for being the strong person she is, even though she can be a real bitch =) I still am thankful she is still with me, as she is the only real family I have as of yet. 4. My job, it pays the bills and pays for the things I need, and recently has been getting a bit better for me. 5. My health, which isn't perfect, but I am certainly still alive and kicking. 6. My major purchases: the house and my car. I never thought I would own a nice $30k car or my own house.(course I dont really own it, but its nice not to be in an apartment) 7. All my friends and acquaintances that have put up with me this year. I personally thank you for not killing me. =) 8. The earth. For not bringing a hurricane, tornado, earthquake, mudslide, volcanic eruption, fire, or flood my direction. (Thanks) 9. Technology, for keeping me connected to the people I can't always be with.

06:23 pm - Its too freakin hot to be November... So..I suppose I get on these kicks where I write a good bit and then I 'pissadear' for awhile only to show back up unannounced =) I think I'm a pretty good Gemini, though, I mean..I might be flaky sometimes..but I NEVER drop anything for good. People and projects and stuff are always on my mind. Thats my problem..thinking too much..which leads to mental rants and contemplations that never get posted here...for whatever reason =P
Life has gotten pretty damn good. Credit card balance increases(which means my credit is getting better..yay)..being able to buy things I want..not just stuff I need..spending time with people I haven't seen in a while...time to myself without feeling guilty..doing things I've wanted to do in the past, but didn't. The list goes on. I'm happier than I have been in way too long. Sometimes I'm so happy I almost don't know what to do with myself. Even work is shaping up, which is totally unexpected and long over due. I will certainly take what I can get in that department.
On the other (brighter)side of life, Jon and I couldn't be better. Well, we could, but situations are put in place to make that almost impossible. I take most things as happening for a certain reason, so I am not complaining. I'm just really glad hes enjoying the job he has now and that hes doing as well as he is. High hopes. Things will work out.
On an off topic..I keep getting these collection notices for Chris in the mail. The messed up thing is..he's NEVER lived here and I don't think my name was ever associated with this debt. I wonder how the hell they got my address.
Rae..call me before the 18th. We still have extra tickets to RenFest. =) Phil..it was great to see you last week =) Congrats again on your new cruiser! =D Karly..we need to do something this weekend...anything that will get you out of the house more. =)

| You Are Likely an Only Child |  At your darkest moments, you feel frustrated. At work and school, you do best when you're organizing. When you love someone, you tend to worry about them.
In friendship, you are emotional and sympathetic. Your ideal careers are: radio announcer, finance, teaching, ministry, and management. You will leave your mark on the world with organizational leadership, maybe as the author of self-help books. |

04:34 pm - Louisiana bound I have gotten the whole week off next week paid.
Jeremy's sisters and their children were in Bogalusa and are rumored to have not evacuated. The whole area is down and no communication is expected soon. We will be driving down this weekend with supplies and gas. That area is not flooded, thankfully. His mom may even be driving in from Florida to help with the search as well.
If any of you or anyone you know would like to give us some supplies to take with to a local South Louisiana Red Cross or anything of the sort, gimme a call before Friday. We can arrange a drop off somewhere in Southern Louisiana. Tenative leave is Saturday. Its gonna be a long drive, but we do have places to stay in Baton Rouge and outside Shreveport, if needed.
More updates on the exact plan as time permits.
