I'm throwing in the towel. My Upsaid account expires in 12 days and I'm not renewing. Upsaid has been abandoned by it's owner, obviously, and it's too expensive. Check out the Member Pages, almost ALL of the people on the member pages are no longer members. They actually have like, probably 25 members total. Look at the Upsaid Demo, it doesn't even work anymore. It's account expired. That's pitiful. It said Upsaid is only $2 a month, that's the old price.

I've got a Xanga though, it's free and easy to maintain. www.xanga.com/firepyro

I have all of your links, we'll be in touch. I've tried for 3 years to build up my readers, and I have 19 times the hits on my Xanga than I do this. So, goodbye trusty domain. I will miss you! 2003-2005.

I need to change this shirt. I hate smelling like smoke!

Today was pretty cool after a while. The morning sucked though. My parents were in a bad mood and my wireless router crapped out. NEVER BUY NETGEAR! The $300 in products I bought from them have all broken in a year. I don't appriciate it. However, there is a U.S. Robotics kit on backorder with Newegg. I may get that if they ever get it in. If not, I'll just buy that nice Linksys with speedbooster or the D-Link with MIMO technology. I will also replace my last standing Netgear adaptor. And I've bought 4 from them.

At 3 o'clock, my sister, her friend and her boyfriend and I went to Columbus. We went to Urban Outfitters, who have rediculous prices. We than went to a cafe, than to an awesome sub place and than to Rag-o-Rama. I got a Killers shirt for $10. Than we got in a traffic jam on the way up. I hate I-71. I hate traffic jams!

Okay! Lots to talk about!

Last Friday I went up to Bluffton Ohio for Youth Conference. It was okay. The food was gross, mind you. I got kind of depressed though since it wasn't as good as last years. And last years wasn't as good as the one before that. What's going on? Anyways, Jesse Manibuson was our music missionary. He is amazing. "Don't worry about feeling embarassed because you're doing the hand motions, just remember, they're not looking at you, they're looking up here at chubby." Chubby being him of course, but if he was skinny, half of this personality would be gone! I also roomed with Mister Squirrel AKA Tony H. It was fun. He brought this big tall air purifier. And we have more inside jokes now. Hmm, I am going to invite him over again. The last two times we went to Amanda's and had a blast.

OH! Amanda... yes. Note to self: Call Amanda tomorrow you idiot. Summer's half over and you haven't called her once.

After conference (Monday) we headed to Gatlinburg, Tennesee. The ride down was awful. My brothers kept annoying eachother. The vacation was blaahhh. We did a good deal of fun things, but what we really need is a vacation away from eachother. Or at least thats what I need. We went from being together in 2500 square feet, to being crammed in 400 square feet, and it was not pretty. And I only got Disney and the Discovery channel on my TV. Oh! It was terrible. The dumb broad on the phone said they had an internet hookup, but they didn't. It was a nightmare. The ride back to Ohio was just the same. Needless to say, I'm just glad I'm home.

I am so mad at myself. I promised myself I'd keep in touch with all my friends this summer. But half of it has already FLOWN by. And I mean royally flown! I don't want to lose these people as friends, with going to a different school and all. I think Mike and I will hang out tomorrow. I don't think he has to work. I shall kidnap him.

Oh and those expert people say not to date anyone you work with, but I kinda-sorta have a thing for someone I work with. Cram it "experts."

Sorry, but I didn't have the time to post.

Let's see...

LAST Tuesday (sometime in June) I went to Kristen's party, and it was fun until there was a psycho neighbor incident. Won't elaborate on that. :\ We watched the funniest movie too. Team America, World Police. It was amazing.

Wednsday I had people over here. Nothing special, we just sat around and talked about everyone and everything. David, Sam, Mike and I took a walk around the neighborhood when everyone else left.

Thursday & Friday I worked two 8 1/2 hour shifts. Giving me a total of a shit 16 hours that week.

Saturday... well I don't remember what I did. Fireworks I think...?

Sunday I worked a 4 1/2 hour shift, than I went to my grandma's for a cookout 4th of July thing. It was pretty boring.

Monday I worked 8 1/2 on the 4th. I didn't mind it at all, and it was HOLIDAY PAY. Holiday pay= time and a half+45 cents on the hour. Eat that George Bush. I'm surprised he hasn't knocked my job down to complete minimum wage with no benefits. I hate him.

Tuesday I got called in for another 4 1/2 hour shift.

Wednsday, yet another 8 1/2 hour.

Today, I went to get another new phone from Verizon because they gave me a lemon. They also said it was my fault, than mom asked to see a manager and it was okay. It will come in the mail soon. I also have to work 6-10 tonight. Giving me a total of 29 hours this week. Well cook my goose! Seems I may have enough to pay extra on the car. Get that loan paid off fast, it's the best way.

Tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday I have Youth Conference, than I have vacation Monday through Saturday. So you won't hear from me in a week!

Post Notes:
This post will be long. DEAL WITH IT.
Poison Ivy sucks.
I updated my photobucket with some of my weekend shots.

There is absolutely no way in this world you could have possibly had as much fun as I dd this weekend! On the way up to YES, Emily, Amanda, Natalie and I listened to something on Amanda's Ipod. It was called Mother Addendum and Filomena, songs by two nuns. Oh it was great! They sang this one song that went like this:

Filomena: In Amsterdam there lived...
Mother Addendum: FILOMENA! That is nothing a nun should say!
F: But Mother Addendum, it's not a...
MA: Do not say that word! I forbid you!
F: But it's a...
MA: That's enough! I won't hear anymore of it!

F: In Amster... ... darn there lived a man.

Than we got there and met everyone else and had pizza. We went to bed around like 1:30.
The next day we got up at 7:30 and by 9 we were off for our service project. We worked 9:30-5:30 on this lady's house. Amanda and I stained paneling and shutters and painted 2 doors. We also helped lay flooring. We ran out of some materials, so Molly had Amanda and I run to Wal-Mart (Norwalk's WM is less hill-billyish than are's, but still has hilljack written all over it.) We figured out that gallons of stain were not cheap. And we bought wasp spray that was supposed to spray 20 feet, but only sprayed 2. Cheap Wal-mart crud. There was poison ivy everywhere! I thought I escaped it, but when I got home and took off my socks. BAM! Red itchy dots all over my foot. Curse it! Curse it all to hell! Just like Dammit All spray, and extra stregnth Dammit all to hell spray. Wipe those nasty sins away, send them to their judgement day with Dammit all spray. Ahahahaa more Mother Addendum and Filomena for you. They're funny. After we got back, we had reflection then KFC! Than ICE CREAM PARTY! The movie they were playing was National Treasure. P.U. So Tony and I sat in the room and played music and sprayed this crap in the fan and it smelled bad. The next next day (Today/Sunday) we had a mass and went home.

It was so much fun! I want to do it again! This means conference will be just as fun.

Mom and I were fighting all day. She won't let me drive to YES this weekend and I don't want to ride with anyone! I just want to drive myself damnit! For many reasons. She's such a control freak. And no matter how many legitimate reasons I give to to let me drive, she can't ever admit she's wrong. I don't even want to go now because what I will have to endure during the ride isn't worth it.

Than I had to work. It wasn't that bad tonight. We weren't busy. I was in no mood to deal with people today, so I wasn't so... nice... today. Especially to the really dumb/not caring/oblivious people that can't even slide their credit card correctly!

I had a good night. I hung out with a ton of people at the park today. It was fun. Than we went to Greg and played hide and seek, don't ask why. It was fun.

But I also feel some sort of emptiness. I know what it is... but I can't say what it is. I can be surrounded by so many people, and feel totally alone. UGH! What is wrong with me! I just wish there was someone out there exactly like me that I could be bestest best friends with. But there isn't, because I'm weird. I guess I don't have the go-get-it attitude I used to have when trying to be friends with people. But than again, nobody makes the effort to make contact with me. I feel like I have lost so many people. I need to start fresh, I am so glad I am switching schools.

I cleaned up my room. It wasn't that bad, just a bunch of clothes and such. I cleaned my desk too. There is still and inch of dust on it. And I have been wondering why every time I enter my room and have an allergy attack. I'll have to break out the Endust when I finish this entry.

Something has been really bugging me lately. It's about one of my good friends. Of course, I can't really post it here, for obvious reasons. It's not making me sad, but it is really making me think.

www.machpc.net is coming around nicely I think. I think I did a good job on it? Except for the logo. Oh my lanta it sucks. Joe offered to make me one, I might have to take him up on it. Because it's so ugly! I am so thankful God made the guy that made PayPal! Without it, none of this would be possible. And it's free! Well, kinda. When someone buys something off my site, they get 3% of the transaction, which isn't a big deal. They make it so I can have a shopping cart and everything. I've designed my own storefront, now I just need to advertise. I think I offer a deal. I'm not to expensive. And custom hand built PC's kick the crap out of a crummy store bought. I need to start passing out business cards.

Enough with computers, I worked 3:30 to midnight last night. It wasn't bad, we weren't that busy. I missed Joe's happy funfun thing though. I went there on my break for ten minutes. lol. I work only four hours tomorrow, not bad. I didn't get called in any this week, so my paycheck next week will suck. This weeks check, which are last weeks hours, should be good. I got 28 hours, which I hope gets me at least $130.

I have YES this weekend. It should be really fun. This is my first BTE thing without my sister, so we'll see how it turns out. Council this year was kind of dead, I wish we could've done more, like last year.

It's too early! I had to get up to do my paper route, and I can't fall back to sleep.

So I haven't posted for six days, my bad. So I'll tell you whats been going on.

Monday, nothing really happened. Kelsey and I went to get cheesecake milkshakes, I mean Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake Sippable Sundaes (R). LOL I think I actually got that right. Than we went to her house. AND I found out that if you make her Mom laugh too hard, her eyes water like crazy. I don't get it, her mom's eyes water, and her sister snorts uncontrollably when she laughs. Crazy Courtney. Kelsey must have gotten her laugh genes from her Dad.

Tuesday I spent 16 FRIGGIN HOURS on the computer. I wanted to die. I was building my computer website, and wanted to get it all done. I ran into a lot of problems, obviously. But I worked them out fine. I am really happy with it. (I think) it's professional looking and I did it all by myself! Now, I hope it racks in the dough. That's what it's all about! Haha.

Wednsday, I worked 8 1/2 hours. Ew. Enough said.

Thursday, I got called in for another 8 hours in the morning. It wasn't that bad. Afterwards, I met Desiree and Nick at McDonalds, than we watched A Clockwork Orange at D's house. Yeah, that's right. I called her D. Haha, D. Maybe I should call her D.D. Or Double D. Oh lord, I just figured something out! Her initials spell D.A.D! And Father's Day is tomorrow. Sorry, I promise I'm not on anything! XD

Friday I worked 4 hours, called in again. They keep calling and waking me up. Those boobs! But my paycheck will be nice next week. It was $120 this week. I'm shooting for $140 next week. I hope it happens, because that will kill my car payment in one shot.

I think that's all that has been happening. I'm sure you won't die or be hurt in anyway if I accidently emitted something.

Commenters (Worship Them!): Kelsey, Katie, Paul and Joe.
