boom, boom, chicka-boom boom.
Sep. 20th, 2000 01:33 pmgood day, fellow LJers! The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and someone in my parking lot lis blaring some badly transmitted bass (the musical tones, not the fish) through concrete into our office. yech.
Sending someone outside to take care of it now.
Getting prepared for visit to prison tomorrow... if her hearing goes well tomorrow, she'll be out on friday... if it goes as expected, she'll get 7 months, out in 5. if it goes poorly, she'll get up to a year (one of the tickets was kicked out...) I'll be glad when she's out, if only to put a cap on the collect calls from jail I get...(at $2.50 minimum to start, at least 2x a day...for almost 3 weeks now... it adds up)
Ahh.. the booming has stopped. :) good job, Bheesham. (the guy who told bass-man to get quiet.)
Anyhoo... to work, and some veggie dogs... maybe taco bell if I can convince Pixie next door to run and get it. :)
OH! Donated blood this am...I'm going to start keeping my tally here, if I remember to. (I'm officially at over 10 gallons! They gave me a nice certificate and stuff.) one of the best things about going in every 2 weeks is that you really get to know everybody, and all the keen freebies you get... for doing charity, I get tshirts, frequent flyer miles, free lunches, and the adoration of several nurses. A good gig. I highly reccomend it.

i just noticed I cna't post on gigglecam's journal any more... I wonder if that's a new development, or If I've been banned or what? ::shrug:: I'll keep reading, but I feel like the interactive element was lost.
working hard these last few days... killing my lj participation. enjoying reading, not much time for writing.
dug in, and crewed up most of my work early, and now I'm going ot take the last 2 hours of the day easy. maybe have some tasty wendy's for supper... that's where pix is off to, sooner or later. I'd have preferred the bell, but she's addicted to the new chicken sammich. As she's picking up, I'm totally cool with the wendy's.
glad to see Tilly and froggy posting agin... was wondering where they ran off to. And it looks like mootpoint is back on a reg'lar schedule, too.. if a trifle sexy in his posts. :) Now if only I could find out where janedeau and malam have busied themselfves off to.
I could do with a big hug... not sad or anything, just up for some hugging.

7 deadly sins
Sep. 20th, 2000 07:22 pmHm. Well, in evaluating my personal flaws... I'd say sloth (on the physical side) is the real winner for me, although I do dip into the Anger and Lust jars on occasion.
How aobut you folks? which of the big seven are you most guilty of?
Pride is excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of the grace of God. It has been called the sin from which all others arise. Pride is also known as Vanity.
Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
Gluttony is an inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires.
Lust is an inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body.
Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. It is also known as Wrath.
Covetousness is the desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Greed.
Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work.

my emode 7 sins results
Sep. 20th, 2000 10:08 pmYou are guilty of SLOTH. Based on your responses, we're surprised that you even finished this test. Our guess is that you only took it as a way to get out of other, more pressing tasks. It appears that you're probably living a life centered around avoiding work. Do your weekends consist of short excursions from beneath the warm covers of your bed? Do you consider TV Guide great literature? Although you may deem the remote control one of the great design achievements of the century, don't forget that someone had to do a little work to invent it. Why don't you try your luck and put a little effort into something as well? You may be surprised at what you can accomplish when you commit to something, besides napping.
According to early religious scholars, sloth destroys zeal. When we close ourselves to the vitality of life, the sleep of complacency gradually worms its way into our hearts. Responding to the zeal and energy of our inner nature should combat the deadening of our spiritual senses. The medieval Italian poet Dante Alighieri considered sloth only the fourth most deadly of all seven sins, behind pride, envy, and wrath. That ranking was based on Dante's own love of sleeping.
