Challenge #309: "Wikipedia, Redux!" This week's challenge is a revival of Challenge 178 from May of 2007. To play, go to Wikipedia's Main Page, then click on the "Random Article" link in the navigation bar on the upper left of the page, and use whatever you get as your prompt (to make it more amusing for all, please provide a link to the page you're using). If you honestly can't think of anything related to your first prompt, try again, but no more than three tries please: this is a challenge, after all.
(Note: this time around, when I tried I ended up with an Evangelical Christian preacher, which...seemed quite unrelated...until I realized the man's name was "Bobby Brewer." *g*)

Not much to report from this weekend. Got a great new haircut - fierce! Started watching Veronica Mars - loving it. Had a big-ish fight with the best friend - still not quite sorted - will be days of oddness before it is all back to the status quo. Boring. Just get over it already - you know it means nothing in the scheme of things.
Oh - I made Quinoa & Cumin Hash Browns for breakfast - they totally rocked. Yummy.
The hot DVD store guy told me I was coming in too often and I was not to come back for at least a week. Bless him. Then told me he has the same problem at his favourite bookshop - and I'm like - snap - I work in a bookshop and have thousands of books. Then he had to go serve some other customer - oh well - tbc next time.
Now I'm starting to get serious Sunday Night Blues. I hate Sunday nights - I always sleep so badly. I'm lucky if I get 3 hours.

I've wanted to do one of these about you from the beginning, but I think I've been putting it off because I'm not sure what I'm going to write. It's not that I don't have anything to say about you, or that I don't have plenty of thoughts and feelings about you. But those thoughts and feelings are complex and multi-layered, and you're complex and multi-layered, and I'm not sure where to start.
Perhaps it's easiest to begin with the music angle, because I knew you as a musician before I knew you as a friend. I've always thought you were a very talented musician with a amazing voice. Over time I came to see the genuine love you have for it -- for the music itself, and the creation of it. I think you're one of those people who makes music because you just can't not make music; it's just an intrinsic part of who and what you are.
I'm grateful that I've had the opportunity to get to know you beyond that, however, because you're one of the most singular and original individuals I've met -- and I've known a lot of unusual folks. There's just no one else out there remotely like you. You're intelligent, diverse, witty, fun, loyal, determined, and about a zillion other adjectives I could list. But listing them is fairly pointless, because a collection of words can't adequately describe the overall sense of you that exists in my head. So, er, I might as well just stop trying and tell you that you're seriously awesome and totally one of the cool kids. ;)
If you don't know what the heck this is all about, the explanation is here.

Hey, I'm posting before midnight, it's a miracle.
Teen boys suck! At least the one that bailed on my daughter does. LOL I had to go see New Moon after all. I can honestly say that it was better than the first (but that wouldn't take much), and that I even laughed quite a few times. (Laughing at the ending earned me several nasty looks from my daughter. But what can I say, that ending was hilarious!) The lack of...shall I say sound effects (read the sighs, ooohhs, and aahhhhs) from women MY age helped as well. Although, I do believe my daughter now has more incentinve to try and get me to read the books (good luck dear, I bleed stuborn), she is sick to death of me commenting and asking questions durring the movies.
Jeff took the boys to see Planet 51, the boys enjoyed it, and Jeff said it was ok. Found out Gary Oldman is the voice of the General. :)
I fear I am going to fail on my Mini_Fest story. It's been opened on my computer everyday for the last week and every time I go to type...I just freeze up. I have no idea what is holding me back, I really should have a case of the "It's never going to be good enough"s, but it seems I do. I shall continue trying up to the deadline, though.
My turkey will end up in a cooler after all. Lucky we had one just the right size to both give the turkey room, and that fits in the fridge. I shall start my brine tomorrow. Jeff will be pleased. I also think I'm going to change up what I put in it this year too. I'm not going to bother with stock or broth, but I'm thinking of adding some pineapple and orange juice. I am thinking the amount of water that goes in will be enough to dilute the acid enough so that it doesn't start cooking the bird. I will be watching it closely though.
I have been in a great deal of pain the past few days. Today the right kidney area of my back has been killing me. Which brings back memories of the stone I had when pregnant with my youngest. (that fucker was the size of a pea, and they refused to admit me to the hospital for it. The only consulation I had afterward, was how horrified my doctor acted when he found out what had happened to me over the weekend.) The only thing that has kept me from going to the ER is the lack of other symptoms. With the last one, I felt like I almost had a bladder infection. I am hoping a decent nights sleep will cure the pain. (although I am pretty sure there is only one cure, and it is about 2 months away)
I hope everyone is having a good weekend. *hugs*

LOOK AT MY NEW JOURNAL HEADER ARTWORK! JUST LOOK AT IT! IT WAS DONE BY THE INCOMPARABLE MASTEROFMERCURY AND IT IS THE MOST AWESOMEST THING EVER EVER EVER! I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO USE IT AND TONIGHT I ASKED IF I COULD AND SHE SAID YES AND I AM HAPPY CONCEPT, HAPPY, HAPPY CONCEPT!
It is so awesome, in fact, that when she gave me permission to use it I promptly flailed and knocked over my tequila--three times.
I'm so happy it's not even funny. It's even better than seeing a house I liked. For serious. That says something about my priorities, but what the hell. It's so pretty it could even go with For a Reasonable Fee or Comes at a Cost.
This is the happiest day EVAR.
Now go read Naughty Girl. It's the teeny ficlet I did a few years ago for this pic. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

My brother ODed again. My mom tried to wake him and couldn't, so she got my nephew R awake and called the paramedics. D, my brother, is back in the hospital again, and again, R is staying with me. I told my brother before that if he did this again, I was going to kill him. Now I have to figure out how.
The paramedics told my mom in front of R that they thought it was another drug overdose, so now R knows about it. He's livid. And yet, after we talked about it, he said he really doesn't want to go back to his mother, either. He asked, "is my dad going to jail?" He's not; not that I don't wish he would. Maybe that would teach him. Not that it ever has, before. But I told R no. The boys both helped me go through D's room for drugs. This time we couldn't find the methadone that my brother said he took. The boys found a marijuana stash, though. They were all keen to watch me flush it down the toilet until they discovered my brother's porn stash *facepalm*.
I'm so angry I can't even form a coherent sentence. I'm signing off.
