MY HEART IS X-THOUSAND MILES AWAY. AND A SAP.

February 14, 2008 at 4:20 pm | Filed under Y!M conversations, joyful girl, mr wonderful

Next to my birthday, Valentine’s Day is my favorite unofficial holiday, and I never quite understood how some people can be so bitter or meh-ed out when it comes to this day. Really, people, if you’re looking for an unoffical holiday to hate, go hate that week that comes after Christmas. Ya know, that week when we’re all scrambling to drop the ten pounds we gained from stuffing our faces silly with, uh, Christmas cheese and rice garnished with rice, just so we could fit into our New Year’s Eve Outfit. An outfit we bought a week ago, when we were ten pounds lighter. Something like that. You get my point. Right? My point being: stay away from the cheese, or else you will be doomed to be single every time the 14th of February comes around.

I swear you will.

MY OWN THEME, HUZZAHZ.

February 12, 2008 at 11:40 pm | Filed under admin, camwhorage

Two days of “hard” work and half a day of tweaking and figuring things out and it’s finally done. I call it my “SUMMADY SAVE ME!” theme; “me” being my laptop, Veronica Mars, who had to endure my screams while I worked on this.

I simplified it and it’s my first time to use a one-column theme. The archives will pose as a problem, but what the heck, I’ll deal with it when it’s 2009.

Yay for the pen tool and Xampp, and thank gaaaad I finally got my new cPanel information. All along I thought Dragweb had suspended my FTP and Plesk access for going over my limit. Turns out, they switched to cPanel, changed my username and password, and downgraded my account to a free package. I’ll have to deal with that some other day, seeing that all I’m getting now is a free 30MB plan with 2G of bandwidth. Ooh boy.

Added an FAQ page and changed my About. That’s all. What ya theeenks? I also need to figure out where to place the Flickr plug-in. Or not.

And a picture. Yay, Mr Snowman:

Lookie, nutritional health supplements!

WELL, HOW WONDERFUL.

(I was supposed to upload a Wordpress theme that I created— not just modified— and guess what? I couldn’t log in to my FTP or Plesk. Why? My account’s been suspended WITHOUT WARNING OR MY KNOWLEDGE. Hurrah hurrah. FUCK THIS.)

It hits me at the weirdest times, like on my way to the bathroom he uses when he’s at my place or worse, when I figure out a code and have to share my success as a geek with someone (which happens a lot lately, considering that all I ever do now when I’m home is code. Hello, escapism).

It’s lonely without lover.

FRIDAY FIVE vii: VALENTINE DATE-SASTERS.

February 8, 2008 at 3:24 pm | Filed under ditz drivel, lists, the helga manual

Valentine’s Day is nearing and for some reason, I feel slightly compelled to write an entry relating to the occasion. I’m not about to bitch about my lacking a physical Valentine this year (much like last year) because despite the fact that I’m often single (though involved…a situation that sucks more than being just plain single) whenever February 14 comes around, I’m still a big fan of the day. Which I spend celebrating my love for friends. All together now: Sige, maglokohan tayo, Helga.

Given that, I am severely lacking experience when it comes to Valentine’s Day dates. But I’ve had my fair share, and so because blogging about how sad I am gets old fast (and quite honestly, I don’t want to wallow; coping and getting back to happy mode comes to me almost automatically, much like the way I move cards around in a game of Free Cell: I just click click click and before I know it, Mr King’s telling me I just won. Again. Fuck, what was I saying. I don’t want to wallow. There), I give you my five worst Valentine’s Day dates EVER (#5 being the lesser nightmare, #1 being an example of why drunk girls should never make very drunken and bad and stupid decisions to go out with dudes who ask them out two days before Valentine’s Day. YEAH, WE ALL KNOW WHERE THIS IS GOING).

You think I’m stupid (and most likely drunk as I am typing this), but I’m trying to prove a point here. Also, I’m saving you time.

BUT MAYBE I NEEDED IT.

I told you not to look, and you looked.

I told you not to fucking look, and you fucking looked.

…

Just like that, I made everything worse.
