Just heard back this afternoon from my doctor's office - the biopsy from my surgery a week ago came back -- and it's clear!!! Woot!

Nice way to start the year off, medical-wise.

*smiles*

I rooted around in iPhoto and came up with some suitable photos for header graphics. It’s difficult to find shots that look good cropped down to 150px! All these are from my yard – I particularly like the Green Lynx Spider with her egg sack.

What do you think about the image swap? Good? Bad? Too fast? Tell me.

Enjoy the new headers! I should redo the logo, but I’m burnt for today. :-)

Just a little FYI for those who are not well versed in how the interwebs work: I can see you when you come by. I can see your location, ISP, computer OS, pages you trolled, everything.

So, CA Chick (and/or hubby), I hope you are enjoying my ponderings on your ilk. If you have anything to say for yourselves feel free to leave a comment.

I don’t really see the point of trolling here if you don’t have guts enough to say something. But then again, I don’t see the point of anything people like you do, so, whatever.

I guess it’s appropriate that the first post of the year is a PSA.

In addition to that one, I may as well refresh your memories of the standard disclaimer:

This blog is not politically correct. Nor is it Christian. Expect to see my opinions in my own voice, which is to say, with lots of cursing, etc. :-) I will rail on the fucked up politics of this country. I will call you out if you piss me off bad enough. I will quote you and mock you if you’re a dumbass. No one is immune and I’m not too concerned over anyone’s widdle feewings. So, as it says at the header: if you can’t stand the heat, don’t read the blog. And don’t lurk, either, or I’ll call you out on that (see above). You’ve been warned.

[end PSA]

Carry on.

Happy New Year, all of my dear friends and loved ones!

Why am I still up? This damned cold and cough are plaguing me something fierce, and apparently, for the second night in a row, my arm is KILLING me. I don't really understand this whole "hurts really bad at night" business. That wasn't part of the contract when I had the surgery.

But yeah. Collectively, it's keeping me up, even though I'm higher than a kite on cold medicine.

I'm sure I'll drift off soon, but I figured, hey, why wait until tomorrow post-sleep to wish you all a happy new decade?

2010! It's here.

I'm waving my magic wand - all bad stuff will now disappear, and only good things will happen from here on out.

;)

Ah the end of this wretched year is approaching and I’m ready to move on. I don’t feel that I’ve achieved much this year. Most of the projects that I started in the middle of the year stalled and that’s where they sit right now. The IndigoDragon site is still down. The ThinkWeasel print comics are still just an idea. ::sigh::

Like everyone else, we’ve spent much time stressing about finances this year. Being as “rich” as we are, we don’t qualify for one thin dime of government entitlements, so we’ve felt shit on by Omama (and the rest of you fuckers who think that entitlement is just fine as long as YOU don’t pay for it). And with the fucked up excuse for MORE entitlement, the “Health Care” bill passing (health care my ass, it’s government seizure of yet another industry), we’ll lose even MORE money and still have no access to care if we need it. The government will be stealing 2.5% of our money ($114.58/mo) to pay for all the assholes who already go to the Dr for hangnails and bad hair and we get absolutely nothing for it. Or we’ll be forced to pay the Insurance Companies for the privilege of having crap insurance that we’ll never use (but hey, someone’s got to pay for all the assholes who go to the Dr once a week, right?), taking even MORE of our money that we need to get out of debt. FUCKED UP.

This is relevant to us especially this year when we shelled out around $1500 for Nick’s heart diagnostics and stuff. Will any of that be covered with the money the gov’t steals? Hell no. Will we be able to use the clinics after this bullshit passes? Probably not. Nice. Thanks a lot House and Senate for fucking us all and handing your asshole buddies [the Insurance Companies] the US population on a fucking platter. Is ANYONE paying attention here? Hello? Bueller? Bueller?

I’d also like to offer Bank of America a hearty FUCK YOU for being dicks to me. They raise hell with my business account, threaten to close my accounts forcibly, so I close my cards to avoid that, then they start sending me offers for MORE cards! FUCK OFF BoA. You and your bitch ass “analysts” can eat a bag of dicks (Rhonda C I’m looking at YOU). I’ll never have another card with you EVAR. It’s Amex for me, suckas!

To the Chick who showed her ass and drove a wedge between me and my longtime friend: DIAFF. And to my mother the chick who refuses to acknowledge that attacking us and talking shit about Nick is not acceptable: I am really liking the lack of interaction and I LOVE not coming up there for the holidays, too. This arrangement is working great for me and I don’t plan to change it.

There has been some good stuff. Like getting an iPod Touch and really digging into Twitter. I’d hereby like to rescind my post from last year regarding Twitter! LOL This year it has come into its own and I use it (with 3 accts!) daily.

I managed to make a little money, which is great. We’ll beat back debt a bit more because of it, but we’re still in the soup.

We also made more connections with our West coast friends, which was lovely. Next year there will be no West coast cons, but we are holding on to Phoenix Comicon because we adore it!

So, here’s to the end of 2009 – which is appropriately ending with a Mercury retrograde. It’s been real, it’s been fun, but it ain’t been real fun. C ya.

As we toast in 2010, we are going to focus on the comic and paying off debt. We are also beginning a true effort to get in shape and lose the fat asses we’ve accumulated. Don’t expect us to be out and about very much. Our comic Mondays will be cut at least for the first couple of months. We MUST ditch this weight. It’s literally holding us down. We appreciate any and all support for this effort – it’s gonna be tough. Changing your lifestyle is always hard and with two people who are very much into routine, it’s even harder. Wish us luck!!

Happy New Year, everyone! À votre santé!

The other day I woke up with a startling revelation: my own mother is a Chick.

I know, RIGHT? GAH!!

Well, this certainly makes a lot of sense. No wonder I’ve such a strong aversion to anything chicky. I learned at an early age what the signs of Chickitude are. This also explains why people from high school always say how “sweet” my mom is and I am horribly confused. Who are they talking about? My mother has always been seething with resentment and jealousy! Who is this Nice Lady they talk about?

As it turns out, one of the Chick’s most powerful weapons is the Nice Lady façade that they display. Having grown up with it, I can see right through it and it has never occurred to me (until this revelation) that few people see through it as easily as I do. Which is why it works for Chicks in the first place! Ha!

The irony of this will become apparent as you read the rest of this entry…

We had a wonderful time here at our home this year. It was the best present of all the presents I got. :-)

Tonite, we’re having a few people over to drink and play Apples to Apples. Dave is coming down from SC and it sort of turned into a small party from there. I’m gonna make some nibblies with my challenge being to make everything Stormy proof (no mayo, no seafood). I’m making deviled eggs with crème fraîche, sausage balls, Hot Wing Dip and serving (not making) Swedish meatballs, kielbasa and other assorted things.

I’m not looking to have an all nighter (I really AM getting too old for that shit) but I hope we all have a great time!
