Jun. 26th, 2004 09:04 pmGreetings all,
Sorry I haven't updated in a while...I broke my internet! Only I could manage something like that LOL...Well I tried to install that latest IE version...BUT NO...The file became corrupt whilst downloading...Now LJ doesn't work on it, my hotmail only works sometimes on it LOL and other sites don't want to work...My Dad mends pc's for a living so I went to him and he tried to fix it in a number of ways, but it looks like the only way to fix it is a clean install of Windows, since IE is actually a part of the core XP programme >.< Stupid XP I never liked it!!! Well technically it's NOT my computer, it's my Dad's backup computer with all his work files on...can we say oops?! So, Dad's gonna buy me a new graphics card for my tower and I'll have my compie back in my room...though I don't have a desk anymore o.O LOL!!!
We've been totally re-doing the upstairs of our house...Mum decided she wanted a bed building with storage under it, and a full length wardrobe building, in order to do that, I had to have their old wardrobes and throw mine out. So we painted my room, it's a lilac type colour with a dark blue border, I also bought a new bookcase. Mum and Dad's room is still only half finished, so I have half their boxes in my room, so I can't finish my room until their stuff is done, they painted their walls light blue and white at the top with a Manchester City border LOL, the wardrobe is nearly finished, just needs the bottom runner and mirrors on the doors. The bed needs putting back together, finishing and painting, and then a carpet needs laying LOL. I still need to take some of my boxes back up and set my fish tank back up, that's currently in our living room...but I'm not taking it up until we're finished else it might get broken and my fish can't go in my Dad's tank because we have breeds that wouldn't get on and would kill each other. On top of all that, we also had our bathroom revinyled, and while we were doing the bedrooms we tool all the nails out every floorboard and replaced them with smaller screws to stop them squeeking!!!
Well, my parents are currently in Nottingham, visiting my older brother, James, so I've been left with pet-sitting duties, although it gets less and less each time, last week our little black cat, Magic, the stray that came to us 12/13 years ago got hit by a car out on the main road! I'm sure the car was speeding, the stupid bastards!!! We've lived here nearly 7 years and he's never come close to being ran over...He got hit by a car at our old house when he was a kitten, but he recovered, but this car killed him, we think it was instant...Some nice lady was driving along the road and saw him on the roadside and didn't want to drive by and leave him there, so she went to the people at number 4 (we're number 3, on the opposite side of the small road) and the people there knew we had a balck cat coz he used to sit at their pond (and eat their fish!!!) and so they came to see if our cat was in the house, but alas the cat that had been run over was ours...I wish I hadn't seen him because the way the car had hit him had pushed his eyeball out of the eye socket and it was just hanging there *shudders* and I can't get that image out of my head! It also smashed his mouth, his purdy majestic mouth...He didn't have a face like a normal cat - round and fluffy - it was shaped like a lion's face.
So now we have our little tabby kitty Jessica, or as I have been calling her - Jessicat - and our german shepard bitch Libby, our fish, and my little black rabbit, Bubble! We used to have two german shepard bitches - Mistie and Libby, our two black stray cats - Magic and Salem, our tabby kitty Jess and our fish and Bubble, so our house seems really quiet now!!! But Jessicat has become very clingy since Gic was killed, she used to be shy when we had Salem because he'd attack her and they had to be kept separate, but Gic was like a brother, they have been together since she was a little tiny kitten back in 1996, and they used to play and fight, she would wait til her was asleep then pounce on him and kiss him, but now she's constantly at my side, she decided it would be fun to wake me up at 6:50am today for some breakfast, and Libby was upstairs, she's supposed to stay downstairs because of her hips and her fur is molting, but she thought she'd wake me up as well! Damn the animals!!! I did get to sleep til almost 9, but then they wouldn't leave me alone until I got up!!!
LOL I was carrying boxes up earlier and sorting them out, I went into mum's room and since their bed isn't finished, the matress is on the floor, and who was sprawled out across the bed?! LIBBY!!! So I need to try and get rid of the dog hairs before tomorrow!!!
I am making a Moogle!!! (THEY ARE NOT UGLY FUCKERS IAN!!!!) They are beautiful creatures from Final Fantasy with little wings and pom-poms on their heads!!! I'm going to buy some material on Tuesday if it's not too expensive and make one!!! p00t!! Don't mind me...I'm going through a Final Fantasy 9 moment!!!
In other randomness...Wasn't Davy Jones just the cutest out of the Monkees?! Bless 'im!!! He was always my favourite!!! My order went Davy, Mickey, Mike and last but not least Peter!!! I used to love watching the Monkees on Nickelodeon when I was little LOL...I'm only 19 now...oops!!! I blame my parents!!!
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE They played "Ride a White Swan" by T.Rex (have to remeber to put T.Rex, not T-Rex, the latter is Rob Benson and Paul Fenton, aka Mickey's Finn's T-Rex or T-Rex - a Celebration of Marc and Mickey, T.Rex is Bolan) on the radio today!!! I love Lincs FM they have firm favourites and interactive jukebox and some quizzes and you can can give songs and answers by text on your mobile, and they played it for me, my name was read out and everything and I was told they hope my room looks nice when it's done!!! I'm loved at Lincs FM...They played "Life On Mars" for me the other night!!! I love top three countdown, they give you the words from the first line of a song that was one. two or three this week in a certain year of the UK charts! They also have Time of Your Life where they play 3 songs and you have to give the year!!! They played "November Rain" by Guns 'n' Roses, I love that song, but they only play the shortened version, which sucks coz my favourite bit is the last four or so minutes!!!
Well this is a looooooooong update so I'll end this here!!! Laters all
