Amy, I'm not sure getting another dog is a good idea, your dogs already give you a hard time when you try to go to sleep, another one might be a little more stressful for you.

Well, we're still not sure if we are going to get another dog- it's just an idea right now. And I understand what you're saying about the sleep issue, but regardless if we get another dog or not, the dogs will still wake us up sometimes anyway...

I mean, we might not even get another one, but it's just an idea! :)

Random fact, huh? Well, I got my first Disney hand-painted animation cel today :) Which I might make a thread on, because I have a question that could only be answered by the other Disney experts here :) I believe it to be from... guess what? Totally Minnie! lol

I often feel that my posts here go unnoticed.

Also:

I'm stuck in Orlando with absolutely nothing to do.

The industry is dead here in FL.

I'm trying to get to NY but that costs money.

I can't get money without a job.

There's no freaking jobs here.

I can't even get a job at Blockbuster because the economy is such crap, no one's hiring, only firing people.

I also need money because I'm about $70,000 in debt right now because of my student loans, which I have to start paying back in a couple of months.

Over the past 2 days, I've slowly but surely become depressed about this entire situation.

My 22nd birthday is coming up, and what will I be doing for it? Absolutely nothing because I have no money. And no friends to do anything with. So I will, once again, spend a miserable birthday by myself at home.

And to top it all off, now I have to do an 8-hour traffic school course.

*sigh*

I'm also stuck in Orlando with absolutely nothing to do, so why don't we do absolutely nothing together?

I hear you on this. I've had no motivation all month...I've been focusing on volunteering and really haven't spent the time looking for a job lately. I had applied to some holiday jobs and no one hired me, and I figured that if I can't even get hired as a cashier, which I have years of experience in, then what hope is there?

I told you that you can go to WDW for free! I can even pick you up! Lemme know! I'm doing absolutely nothing that day! Hint, hint! :)

I notice your posts too, and I feel the exact same way.

Fact:
If I made a thread, and nobody posts a comment, I usually delete them after a few days or so.

I've done that before, too...one day a few months ago, I went back and deleted threads of mine that had no responses, and sometimes now if I post a thread (especially one dealing with a specific time, like one I wrote about a freebie event at Downtown Disney), then I'll delete it if there are no responses.

Um, a fact, to stay on topic!

I feel all weird inside- a mixture of anger and sadness, I guess- and I posted about why in the Pet Discussion Thread. If anyone could offer advice or insight, head to that thread! :)

Fact: For some reason I feel soooo sleepy today, I don't know why!

A fact that I even did today...but had forgotten to write in here until I just read that Albert recently bought a DVD from Best Buy:

A trip to Best Buy isn't complete without a stop at the Disney DVD section. I went to Best Buy today with Bobby so he could get a phone, and I wasn't planning on buying anything, but I still wanted to stop and look at the Disney DVDs (mostly because it was really, really boring in the phone section). I looked at every single title. Often, if I see something out of place (like, say, a Spongebob DVD in the Disney section), I'll remove it from the Disney section. And, vice versa, if I see a Disney title in, let's say, the Nickelodeon section, I'll return it to the Disney section. And, if there is a movie without a price, and the ones behind it have a price, I will put the one without a price in the back, so people are aware of the price...

Side note: Three copies of THoND had different prices: I think they were $14.99, $16.99, and $22.99. I have no idea what is up with that, but I arranged them cheapest to most expensive. The most expensive one had been in the front. :roll: Of course.

But, yeah, I don't work at Best Buy (even though I have applied a few times over the years), but I help organize their Disney DVD section!

This time for real...

My weight changes every day. One day I am 230 pounds, the next its 240 pounds. The obvious reason is that what I eat affects my weight, so I guess my real weight is around 230 pounds, and if I actually followed a diet it would be stable.

lol, I'm the exact opposite, If I go to Virgin Megastore and find a movie that I want, I usually carry it for the time being...until I find an even better movie at another section, then I just replace that DVD with the one I was holding. But I don't go to Virgin that often anymore, which is probably a good thing for them. :P

In the Disney dvd section at HMVs they have this piece pf plastic a little taller than the dvds labeled "best of the best", sometimes I will remove it from behind copies of lets say finding nemo (which i find a little bit overrated) and put it behind lets say hunchback or Pocahontas (which I find underrated). Hopefully I might have influenced a soccer moms purchase.

:lol: You made me lol in real life. That is extremely awesome. Put it behind TBC, will you? Maybe it will help sales! :D

*edit*
Oh yes, my random fact:

So, I had previously mentioned Oliver, the hound at the SPCA. Well, this morning and yesterday morning, I dreamt about my dogs, and today Oliver was included as well. The first dream was about my dogs and my friends' dogs coming over and having a party in our yard. Today's dream took place after we adopted Oliver. I needed to pick my friend up at a casino, and I brought all 3 dogs with me. Sally was growling at the boy dogs, since she'll growl at another dog if I'm patting her (being patted is her favorite thing in life).

I have been thinking a lot about Oliver. I had talked with the lady at the SPCA after training on Thursday (or whatever day it was), and she said that I should try and train Sally not to growl at other dogs when she's being patted. Sometimes she won't growl at Harry if I'm patting both of them, but sometimes she definitely will. Oliver seems to like being patted, and I couldn't have Sally be miserable because of a new dog, and I wouldn't want Oliver to be lonely. Also, I don't know how much taller Oliver is than Harry & Sally...I wouldn't want them to be overwhelmed by a taller dog. He's not that much taller or anything, but at the dog park, I can tell that they're much comfortable around other shorter dogs. Bobby didn't want to go to the SPCA and meet Oliver. Maybe when I go tomorrow, I'll see that Oliver has been adopted, and I'll be happy for him. The lady said, though, that he might not get adopted for a while, since he's 4 1/2 and not housebroken yet. I still have that bond with him, and if I could know that he and my dogs would get along, I'd still pester Bobby about adopting him. But I just don't want any of the dogs (my 2 or Oliver) to be sad at all or anything....so I'll just need to wait and see. I guess as of right now, chances are that we won't be adopting him...

My fact is that I registered on a site called children's illustrators, and paid the joining fee, but I entered the wrong email address at the begining, and now I can't click the link to confirm.

ARGH!

I put .com instead of .co.uk.

So I guess my fact is that I messed up royally! :D

Rachael, have you tried emailing the company, letting them know what happened? They must have a "contact us" form, right?

Yeah I left them an answer phone message, and I emailed them. I'm just a little worried because it was $200/140 pounds, so I just want to know it's ok. Unfortunately, with it being a Sunday, no one is in to help me, so I'll have to wait for tomorrow.

I notice the both of you two's posts as well and always enjoy they reading them. :)

As for random fact...

I just recently reconnected with a friend I haven't seen since high school in four years, and found out that since then he's married and his wife is pregnant already. Never realized how much can change in four years. :p

Oh yes. Three of my old friends have been pregnant, married, divorced, pregnant again, remarried... it's crazy. (Not all were divorced, just saying)

It's creepy though when you're friends start to get married. I had one get married in December, and now another is getting married in March. :huh:

MAJOR NEWS :

I sweared, and the whole neighbourhood heard me, LOL and my Granny used to think I have a halo around me ! tsk tsk :lol:

It all started when I went outside roller-blading, and then this MFSOAB (credit to Isidour for hinting the abbreviation for me !) comes and tries to almost run me down with his Golden Hummer (isn't that for pimps anyway :roll: ), twice, but he probably came back because I fingered him, who wouldn't ?! Funny thing is that I had this poker face, and I'm fingering this guy with his Giant car just inches away from my body, and I acted like this happens everyday. lol

Then I went back home and grabbed a stone from our yard, came back and when he rolled down his window, he said "What the F*** is your problem ?", I said "YOU SON OF A B***H, IF YOU EVER TRY THAT AGAIN I'M GONNA SMASH YOUR F***ING WINDOW", and to my surprise that cheap douchebag threw a rock from his window (ironic but still), and he almost hit me, but that p***y sure did run away as fast as it could, after that.

That's when I unleashed the mother of Arabic swear words (which literally means "YOUR MOM'S P***Y"), and that's when my Granny almost died ! :lol:
