I'm Just Sayin'

So today Nathan Bransford posted a great blog on social media blunders and I had to add to it. Here is the link though. Read it-it's great. Nathan Bransford.top-5-social-media-blunders-you Besides the 5 mentioned here, I have a few that I would love to add. 6. Posting a link to everything you just read. Joe Facebook guy just read an article-then I have to go and add an app to see that article-that's a pain in the arse. If the article was that good-just share it on your page. 7. Becoming a news anchor. Posting every big news event that is on the news. Look if its on the news, we've probably already seen in. But okay to be fair, I hate the news so I do get a lot of my news from people posting links, but still would you walk into your work office and say, "a girl off the coast of CA was bit by...." whatever it is? No most likely you wouldn't. 8. Posting photos of abused animals! STOP this. It's really awful and I don't want to see it. 9. Posting...

My super obnoxious pot head neighbors are doing their nightly (yes every single night) party on their patio (which is about 10 feet from my window), and their white trash friends are screaming and yelling as per normal behavior-but no one would ever break into any apts on this corner as they are always out there-I guess that's the silver lining. I don't understand people who act like this though. Seriously? You live in an apartment!!! Stop yelling and screaming every night!

Every year in April I start my, "I have to get out of this city" thing-because I can not stand hot weather and really want to go back to NYC more than anything. Thanks to the rents in Los Angeles sky rocketing, looks like I will be able to do that soon. I figure if I can afford what I am paying here and it's close to what rent is there-why not? Oh yeah, animation is here. That said, I have been looking and finding amazing apartments for around what I am paying here!!! My lease isn't up for a few months, but I am looking. Making a plan. Get my arse back to NY where I belong!! Okay, unless an amazing job comes up here!!

Ian Somerhalder is not only the hottest vampire on network television, he is a great guy. He started a foundation a while back and is dedicating his life to helping the planet. He is young, good looking, staring on a hit show and could easily be a right dickhead, but instead, he is doing his part to make the world a better place; and that makes me a huge fan of his. http://www.isfoundation.com/news/influence-affair is the link to his foundation. I highly suggest you get involved in one way or another. I have donated and am hoping to do some writing for them later this year. Check him and Uggie, out from the Genesis Awards. http://blog.zap2it.com/pop2it/2012/03/ian-somerhalder-and-uggie-true-love-at-the-genesis-awards.html I had to give him a shout out today because I am constantly impressed by his heart and moved every single time I read about him. Good job Ian-I wish more people could be like you.

Tonight, at night, in the dark, some guys were banging down the doors in my complex. They were nice enough, but still I didn't let them in. It's weird at night to be selling anything. They stood around in the hallways waiting for someone-it was suspicious. I called the rent a cop the community has on staff-I am sure he was at his usual sleep post-ugh, so I called the regular cops. That's right. LAPD. Now I watch Southland and the Closer, so I have a decent amount of respect for these folks, but come on, they have reached new lazy. I told them some suspicious guys were banging on apartment doors and could they come check it out. They asked me if I was shot. WTF? Seriously? UGH, I said no just that they were making me uncomfortable since it was night and they wouldn't leave. They told me that they could do nothing until my apartment was broken into or I was shot and then they warned me not to take any action into my own hands unless I was fired upon first. Swear to the ba...

Okay so I wake up every day thanking God, or the powers that be that I am NOT president. I mean, who on earth would want that job? No matter what you do, people hate you. And nothing is ever good enough and you are always trying to fix what some other jackass did before you. Personally I think Bush was smart, yes he was, he has an over average I.Q. but he was NOT ready for the job at hand. Life was good when he got elected and as far as America knew all we had to worry about was Bill's extra activities. Little did Bush or anyone know that someone in the middle east was carrying a grudge from Bush senior years before little Bush got into office. Huge mistake! So now you have a man who really hasn't done much in his life in the White House-good God-and then we get attacked and little Bush gets played like a rag doll by the people he hired to help him. He really wasn't ready and now we have Obama who is doing his best but the mess that he was left is beyond ginormous. The left...

My father is dying. I am really sad, but also it will be the end to his suffering. Almost 6 years ago he suffered a massive heart attack and brain damage, but being the strong man I remember him as he survived. He now lives in a nursing home in New England because he needs constant 24/7 care. Today they called me and told me that my 220 lb strong father now weighs less than I do and he can't stand on his own. He can no longer swallow. He needs help going to the bathroom and the end is very near. His body has been slowly letting go for years as his mind has been the mind of a child-sometimes there and sometimes not. Dementia is what it is called, and every time I have spoken with him has been hard. There have been days when he didn't know who I was and days when he did, or a couple years ago I called him on my birthday and he said, "It's your birthday, no shit my daughter Stephie is turning 8 today." Sometimes I can't understand him at all. I am tortured by th...
