I got my new laptop today and it kicks much a**.
Oh yes.
It has a webcam and everything built in. Though, I'm not sure how to use it at the moment.
It also has a button on the keyboard ment for quickly playing and loading dvds. Confused the hell out of me when I accidently hit it. Cool feature though, if useless.

Remote Controlled Toy Threat
I just happened across this article while checking my email and it totally reminded me of that old, somewhat sucky, Robin Williams movie, Toys.
Does anyone remember that? It's got to be at least ten years old or more.
The article basically says that government officials in Sri Lanka fear the use of remote controlled cars in civil warfare, because one could strap a bomb to them.
That was also basically the plot of the film, that this guy was trying to create toys capable of mass destruction.
It’s funny though, I just saw that movie on television not too long ago and I actually was thinking to myself that it was an awesome idea.

My new school quarter started today. Nothing to note really. I was made to wait over an hour just to speak to financial aid about a fax they had yet to receive. Apparently it got lost in all the confusion of the first week of classes and they simply checked me off and swore to hunt me down if it didn't show up. However, since I waited so long to speak to someone I ended up missing a class.
However, I saw my old roommate there. She's totally changed from being this chubby little recluse who wore pajama bottoms and a tee every day to school to this completely unattractive punk attired poser. I really dislike that so many assume that a liberal application of eye liner, some hair dye and a trendy hair style will automatically make them into something special. Conformity through rebellion never suited anyone. Besides, she's gotten fat and the new style doesn’t do anything for her.
I would have said hello had she not pretended I wasn’t there. She likely feels guilty about all the slander she spread about me. I‘m surprised she tried to tarnish my reputation. I was nothing but kind to her. She’s really lucky I’m not petty. Besides, it isn’t as if someone so low on the social latter could stain me.... I think she just wanted attention. And she was mad I moved out. I ruined her illusion of happy dorm lifestyles shown on the Disney Channel. She idolized all that.

I’ve been accessing Gaia from the local internet café since my computer bit the dust. I don’t come here for Gaia, I come here so I can do my school work. But you know how it is.
It never fails that even amongst all the sings that read “NO CELLPHONES PLEASE” in bold, clear letters, that some dumb-a** feels the need to leave their ring on the loudest setting. Then they answer it. And practically scream into the receiver.
“YEA, I’LL PICK YOU UP AT THREE O’ CLOCK, BILLY. K. LOVE YOU. WHAT? NO I DIDN’T DO THE DISHES. K. BYE!”
I mean really now. The door is right there. Get off your a** and talk outside.

Most people probably don't know that I adore Betta Splendens. You know.... Siamese fighting fish. I know all about them, like their variations and colors and feeding and what plants and companian animals they can live with.
I even have bred them in the past.
Today at the pet store I found a very sexually mature brown female. She has a purple wash. It's a pretty common little fish but the store also had a wonderful purple Crown Tail. I heard from another breeder that Crown Tails are becoming very rare. So I bought them both and a very pretty veil tail saraphan male.
I'm going to breed them if I don't get up making plans to go to Maine later this month. My fry would starve without someone to take care of them and I don't know anyone dedicated enough to be with them every few hours to feed them and make sure they're not fighting...
I'm so excited though! I'll post pictures.

This may come as a shock to some, but in high school, I was a bit of a rebel. You know, hair dye, main stream punk clothes, printed tees. The usual. Just like everybody else who wasn't like everybody else.
I never really shopped at Hot Topic since the one nearest to my home only carried band related items and oversized one size fits most shirts. Nothing I wanted. But I was familiar with the store and had nothing against it. I even went to their website sometimes to see what was in stock.
But I hadn't visited in years, seeing as I dropped my whole angsty phase a while ago. I'm still just as angsty, I just don't need $200 bondage pants to reassure myself that it is true.
Today though, I was in a thread about those Naruto headbands and someone asked where to get them. Answers I was familiar with came up, like Ebay and conventions. Then someone said Hot Topic. I was really surprised for a second then went to the website to see. Sure enough, they have them. The surprise only lasted for a second.
But why wouldn't they have them? Like any other business they need to have what their main audience wants. So I shrugged it off and took a glance at the site.
Not much had changed... All the usual menu tabs like New Stock, Gift Cards, Tops, Bottoms, Dresses, HT Baby, Sales....
WAIT!
WTF???
HT.... BABY?
And sure enough, when I hesitantly looked inside, I found a section dedicated to toddlers, young children, and even infants. Whose idea of a sick joke is this? Babies put up with enough having to allow their parents to dress them up in cutesy frilly little gowns and itty bitty shoes but honestly... No child would want a Slipknot tee. No parent should want their child in a Slipknot tee!
Jesus... Dress how you want but keep the baby out of it. Babies are supposed to have unbiased opinions and a clean slate. That's why even people like me still, somehow, tolerate them. As soon as you sausage one into a Green Day bodysuit, that seals the deal. It's all over. You baby fails at life.
And you don't want your baby to fail at life, do you?
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Yes you.
