and football teams are kissing queens

Browsing HH makes me seriously crave popsicles. Currently I'm dying for cherry, lime, and orange ones. Why? The schemes, especially the actress ones, are done in bright colors, so that when the graphics/tables are loading, all I can see are giant swatches of cherry red, lime-popsicle green, and orange.

*weep*

Tonight my nephew is spending the night. Which would be great, except he's um... cranky. Yes. Not helped by the fact that I woke up at 7am this morning. I am so not a morning person. I hate morning. Mainly because if I'm up that early, I die by noon.

Onward onto more fandomy things.

Reasons I like the Charmed fandom:
- If you miss a TV, magazine, any blessed little thing, someone else will have scanned, capped, uploaded, or managed to otherwise catch it for you... and they share.
- Addition to above: global community of goodness. Seriously.
- Usually very nice maniacs and wackos.

reasons I would sometimes rather chew my leg off than venture off into the fandom:
- Despite the size of the actual fandom, the whole thing feels rather inbred in that you pretty much travel with the same people if you stick around long enough. Sometimes this is good [you know who you are :)] and sometimes this is sheer torture [they *don't* know who they are. unfortunately].
- People get super bitchy as a result.
- Really freakin' bitchy. And annoying.
- A new spammer is born every half second. :p
- TMI and adoration [yeah, see every other fandom]... but come on. I don't want to hear 60 girls/guys shriek "OMIGAWD! Lyssie has hair on her belly too! Just like me!" ...ew. Thanks for sharing...

And I'm not sure, but since I use one email address for one forum, and a different one for all the rest, I think I've been spammed by said forum, or someone on it. Not that I really mind [shannen board, so no real complaints] but it bugs me on principle.

Today sucks

Reasons Why Today Sucks:

- My trip to Walmart was delayed until 4pm, where the store was then crammed with so many people that my anti-social tendancies made me want to kick everyone I saw.
- While there my mom bought herself a soda. When she went to get me one, the machines wouldn't take her coins, and the one that did gave her a diet coke. I don't drink diet *anything* because it's disgusting. Of course her other drink was a diet soda as well. :/
- The paycheck for the phone books came in. I think Mom has taken control of the whole thing. :( So there goes my hope of even a 70/30 split. *sighs*
- I'm broke. See same explinations on why I cannae get [and keep] a job.
- No food except these chicken patty things. So I made them. Twenty minutes later Mom goes out and buys fast food for my brother, who then has a drama queen moment when she brings him the wrong thing.
- Brother and his ex fighting. Lots of fighting. Lots of fucking stupidity. It also meant I couldn't go anywhere all day, despite being told I could.
- No cold sodas and I'm dying of thirst.
- Can't even go to my room to sulk about other things I don't feel like putting on this list because my brother and his clone spent the afternoon getting high, so now my room and bathroom stink. I now have a headache the size of Alaska due to my 20 second jaunt to my room.
- As I'm broke, I couldn't afford the item below. :p

Reasons it doesn't:
- While at Walmart, I saw a stuffed Rufus [Kim possible] that was too cute for words.


If you need me, I'll be busy trying not to bash my head into a wall.
