KILL ME NOW

DEAR JOE:

OKAY. KILL ME NOW. Seriously.

I am DYING and I need major help, major fast.

I'm broke this Christmas, so I decided to DL and burn presents (and also bake delicious cakes). So all my family and shits told me things they want, movies and tv series, and I DLed them all using bit torrents.

The files are fine, and great quality. This is not the issue.

The issue is burning them. First I tried using the burner that comes with windows. It won't work. It keeps burning things almost to the end, then shuts down and doesn't work.

Then I DLed Nero 9, which I was told was a great program. It also does something similar, and takes like 2 hours to burn a 1 and a half hour movie, and then it suddenly stops working when it's writing the disc close thing.

I have DLed a few other DVD burning software programs, and none of them will burn in a format that DVD players can read. If I put it in the computer, the computer can play it, but no DVD players can.

This is the problem. I need DVD burning software that burns fairly quickly, and will allow for playback on normal DVD players.

For the love of god help. I have about 30 or 40 discs to burn by sunday afternoon and I am sinking, I don't know what else to do.

HELP.

Another strong finish allows Steelers to take AFC North crown

"The Pittsburgh Steelers are AFC North champions, and earning the crown at the expense of the Baltimore Ravens added an extra measure of joy to the accomplishment.

Santonio Holmes caught a 4-yard touchdown pass from Ben Roethlisberger with 43 seconds left, and the Steelers clinched their second straight division title and earned a first-round bye by beating Baltimore 13-9 Sunday." -NFL gamecenter online

SUCK ON THAT, BALTIMORE!

Buahahaha!

Okay, I was nervous when they threw that last pass, if we hadn't intercepted, it would have been bad news.

But we did, so hurrah.

Sun, Dec 21st @ Tennessee, 1:00 PM ET. Be there or be square.

My future husband.



That's right.

[I know that I should feel slightly like a traitor, having been born and raised in Detroit, I guess I'm supposed to be a Lions fan. But my entire family is from Pittsburgh. I was raised with it, I love the Steelers.]

I can't help but wonder...

Why is there so much pressure to be perfect? Usually, a great deal of it is coming from within.

As insignificant as it sounds, for years and years I blew my hair dry, and straightened it with a flat iron. This was me, trying to have straight hair. Because, for some reason, straight hair was 'perfect hair'. For some reason, my crazy curly hair wasn't okay. It's wild and goes all over the place and is just complete curly chaos. And I was never okay with that. For some reason, it made me feel ugly.

I also haven't seen my natural hair color since I was about 11. I have dyed it since then, and have never ever grown it out. My natural hair color is a light light brown, kinda dirty blonde. And for some reason, I always thought it was plain and dull and boring, and I didn't want to be any of those things. So, I dyed it. Burgundy, black, bleach blonde, pink, red, dark brown, black, platinum blonde, black... dark chocolate brown. If I could even see a half inch of my natural color growing in, it would drive me crazy until I could dye it. For some reason, it made me feel ugly.

But lately, maybe the last 6 months or so, something has changed. For the first time since I was 12, I put down the blow dryer, and the straightener, and let my hair dry naturally. I put down the hair dye, and am letting my natural color come through. I haven't blown dry, straightened, or dyed, in 6 months.

So. It's just me. No dye, no blow dryer, just me. Nothing to hide behind. It's wild and curly and dirty blonde. And I'm okay with that.


I don't know what it means, but I think it's something good.

You.

Well if I was in your position
I'd put down all my ammunition
I'd wondered why'd it taken me so long
But Lord knows that I'm not you
And If I was I wouldn't be so cruel
'Cause waiting on love ain't so easy to do

Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
No I can't always be waiting, waiting on you
I can't always be playing, playing your fool, foool.

I'm really getting a kick out of people on the internet.

Anyone familiar with my journal knows that I speak in generalities in my journal and it is often quite open ended in style, I do not speak of specific names or occurrences in my writing. Chances are if I am writing something and you read it, then it has nothing to do with you specifically.

With that said, someone read a 2 line entry of mine and it was somehow more inflammatory then a very long flame war, really that is flattering that my writing has that kind of impact but that is really giving me far too much literary credit. The said entry did was not in reference to said person that was upset, it was a recollection of the whole day and the childishness of the flame war that was previously mentioned. And to begin with, most of the things I write on here should really be taken with a grain of salt.

But hey, let's all get pissed off on the internet.

Well I must have done something wrong. Now I don't get to read the daily updates on the happy lives of the Rainbow Friends and their residence in the Gingerbread House Paradise.
