Happy unHalloween!

Xanga loads again!

I was a dryad for Freed Halloween.

At about 2 PM I decided I needed a Halloween costume. I started hunting for clothes. First I found black ones, then green ones. With the green ones came the idea of being a dryad, a wood nymph. So I started drawing vines on my left arm with a green rollerball pen, a sleeve of vines. With the same pen I drew three leaves on my right cheek and drew green lines on my forehead and smudged them with moisture until they were a solid-ish pale green. Gave myself green eye shadow—basically I had a half-masque of green rollerball ink. Some of it was a little shoddy but if I messed up my hair you couldn’t tell from outside of kissing distance. I got Misty to help me with ideas; ended up wearing green pants with embroidered flowers on the left leg, my green owl tank top, and a green gradient shirt, which I gave slitted sleeves with a pair of scissors. Then I went to Dollar General and bought myself a cheap wreath of fake ivy to put on my head. And painted my nails sparkly green.

And it worked.

Sweet. Adaptability and luck work out where planning fails, sometimes. 

 Owl City is like ear candy. No nutritional (lyrical) value, but it sure is tasty.

No.

Either Freed blocked Xanga, or something somewhere in the DNS settings is wrong.

Either way, I am angry. I love Xanga. Xanga is part of me. I will not stand for having it taken from me.

Having to go through a proxy makes this much more difficult, which means my posts will be more readily seen on http://hmmcclish.blogspot.com. I will attempt to post them on Xanga too, but instead of that site mirroring this one, it will be the other way around until this can be worked out.

Apologies.

Dear Freedies:

"I have three things I'd like to say today. First, while you were sleeping last night, 30,000 kids died of starvation or diseases related to malnutrition. Second, most of you don't give a shit. What's worse is that you're more upset with the fact that I said shit than the fact that 30,000 kids died last night."

P.S. Firesheep is scary as heck, everybody get Force-TLS! Also, please come back up, Xanga. 

Even more meds!

Klonopin.
My psych nurse says I have anxiety. I told her I'm not accustomed to thinking of myself as having anxiety. She told me I internalize it. I guess it's true enough. I do have a lot of things to worry about.
She also says it might be the cause of my inability to eat properly and that the Klonopin will help me sleep. Sure hope it does. I see no reason why it wouldn't. Strong stuff, Klonopin.
Oh, she also said that the cardiologist didn't do the tests that she wanted done on me. An echo, a stress test, an exercise test, none of those things. So she still won't give me ADHD meds.

Dear Xanga software,

Lay off with the "Discretion advised" content rating that prevents me from seeing people's blogs for another month. Can't you just put a disclaimer or an I'm Over 18 button like everybody else? Not that I'm over 18, but I think I have the right to judge my own maturity with relation to mature content, especially with less than a month before I turn 18. Kthx.

Sincerely, Mel.
