Yes! YES! Fight the evil word-slaying dragon that is social media! BREVITY IS FOR THE WEAK! I'm right there with you in my desire to breathe life back in to long form writing sites. I may be a bit more pessimistic about it actually happening though, experience having shown me that anything requiring effort tends to lose out to anything requiring less effort. And hitting "Like" certainly takes less effort than thinking. Which blogging tends to require. Still....viva Diaryland indeed! Even if we could get a small fraction back into The Fold, I would still count that a success. Great entry!

from the-grey-one :

Viva Diaryland indeed :)

from dangerspouse :

Hey hey, welcome back!! Er....not that I ever knew you were away. Sorry. But still - WELCOME BACK! And (this time with actual sincerity) thank you so much for adding me to your Big List o' Fave Reads. I'm really flattered. After reading through your current and former entries, I'm doing the same to you. You're a great writer. I mean, that insightful analysis of Britney and Christina still holds up incredibly well after all these years. You can't waste pearls like that on the swine of Facebook! Now go back to sleep and dream you had your old mattress and pillow back. That should take care of things.

from astitchaway :

Preach! I know it's so easy to forget the comfort of a place like this. Somewhere with only the ears to listen and not the mind to judge.

from m91879 :

ah, fuck it

from m91879 :

eerm...*checks addled memory* nope

from m91879 :

sorry I missed you, had a few of them myself recently

from m91879 :

How you doin'? Long time no speak

from m91879 :

I guess we all have an idea of how artists live - in my experience they work dayjobs or night jobs, have basements full of asbestos and social lives that interfere with everything. I'm brutal about my time now which means less dland, more time apart from my boy and less money. Fucken sucks I can tell ya. Glad you're still pluggin on. Brightest Blessings, -Munch

from m91879 :

Three forms of life just read your latest post, me and the cat appreciated it but the furniture-sized spider scuttled off to pretend it was a table elsewhere...

from m91879 :

Alright Bab? Long time no speak.

from m91879 :

Hope ur OK.

from m91879 :

how does the world look tomorrow?

from m91879 :

Nice 2 see you back. Check out my notes page for another returning diarylander. btw Did you get broadband yet?

from m91879 :

Wahey! I got my background back, now if you'll only update more often that'd be double, double dropdown diarylandarrific!

from m91879 :

Hey don't worry about it, between college, looming eviction and familial disputes I know what it is to be too busy to think straight. Be lucky. -M-

from m91879 :

NOOOOO! It can't get WORSE! Say it ain't so.

from hedgehoggy :

Your entry does not show up at all on my screen. Something up in your keeping me from reading?

from m91879 :

...that's "party-hardy" for discerning grammarians...

from m91879 :

Yeh, they're not bad at all, I Stumbled Upon 'em not two seconds afer I did that entry...I figured my party hadty reader(s?) might need a little break from conspiracy links...

from lostincoma :

I totally agree with that. It reminds me of this cheesy commercial where someone does a nice thing for a stranger, then the stranger goes and does something nice for someone else, and so on. But yeah, I've dealt with that at work a lot. I go there, do my job, be nice to customers, and it just takes that one nasty person to bring my whole mood down. Also, I was standing in line somewhere once, behind these two overweight girls, and they were not-so-quietly whispering rude comments about how thin I was. I was baffled! Then someone came to move the line against the wall and they squeezed me out of line and started laughing at how "the thin girl wouldn't fit." It was crazy. I think that's a classic example of people knocking others down just to make them feel better about themselves. But we do all do it at some point.

from lostincoma :

Dude, Nick News is still on the air?! I remember watching that as a kid, and it's true, they always did tackle mature subjects or things that weren't often talked about on mainstream news. As for kids today, I don't think there's much chance of them growing up thinking Bush was a good president, since *all* news outlets have bashed him pretty pervasively. If nothing else, I would think they'd grow up with the impression that both extremes of the political spectrum are absolute lunatics, thus developing a middle-of-the-road stance. Much like most of America today, I guess.

from m91879 :

This is strange, I thought I'd sent you a grainy landscape photo and some vagueness about a now reading list and so forth. Blame THC and short term memory. Anywho, the membership thing is by way of thanks for your encouragement and, hopefully, some encouragement right back. I'll sketch some concrete ideas for the chronicle and zap them in a email as soon as I think them worth your time. -Munch

from m91879 :

I know, but I'm running the Ravengreen Reward Plan. Besides I had to get out of being your bitch. -Munch

from m91879 :

I have neither :-(... I don't think supergold really gives you that much bang for your buck though that could be 'cos I'm about to offer you a deal to make my page funkalicious if I sort you a gold membership in the next 48 hours. Deal? -Munch smallprint: the 48 hour limit applies to buying of your membership not your end of the deal. as benefactor, i can longer be your bitch, ho or gimp... yay? nay?

from m91879 :

So, basically, I'm some kinda corner-dwelling, Gollumish type with a penchant for ranting about the darker things in life? I'd be offended if you weren't right... Seriously, I was really chuffed with the write-up; it's always nice to know my meagre rantings are appreciated on some level. So...thanx. As for your anonimity issues, why not try keeping two diaries? I think you're being kinda harsh on yourself thinking that no angst makes for a frothy read but, if it's catharsis you need and somewhere to write about those you know without causing a world of crap between family and friends, have a public diary and a private diatribe. It's a thought, anywho. Be Lucky, -Munch

from hedgehoggy :

Yes, you are a very lucky girl. Oh, let me count the ways........oops! Too many to name.

from m91879 :

Why, shucks, ma'am thank you vrry much. I always write 'em when it's rainy or at night with a beer in my hand 'cos I drink too much, I'm an insomniac and I live in England. The three facts are connected. Thanks again for your kind words...and just btw, wtf happened to that Revolting Holden character? He of the Last Chance Texaco. Last word on my space is that he's doing time. -Munch

from hedgehoggy :

Problems have come up. The words are "eat" and "me."

from lostincoma :

I remember you recommended Cisco to me a while back, and I haven't been able to find his stuff anywhere besides Amazon. But now that I have my Amazon gift card... *grins* I never read Narnia as a kid either. I was more into Boxcar Children and (admittedly) R.L. Stein. Cynthia Voight was also a good one...I believe there were nine books in her series, and I vividly remember some of the stories to this day.

from lostincoma :

I used to like the androgynous look a lot more than I do now...possibly because it's become boring to see it everywhere. As for young kids dressing like that, do they not have *mothers*??? Mine would never let me dress provocatively at that age. Hell, I'm 22 and she still doesn't like it. And I don't think I even had a concept of my own sexuality until college, so...I dunno. I think you're right that kids are having sex at younger ages, and maybe that has something to do with it. I guess it's just hard for me to comprehend because my life at that age wasn't focused on any of that in the least bit.

from lostincoma :

My dad does something like that. I don't know how long he did it for (several months, at least), but he counted it one day and had almost $200! It's really a good way to see how much you spend unnecessarily.

from lostincoma :

American bookstores, in general, are some of the worst organized bookstores I've ever seen. I don't usually read much obscure stuff, yet I can never seem to find what I'm looking for! Why in all hell they insist on mixing contemporary and classic fiction, I'll never understand. Speaking of, thanks for the book rec. I could've sworn I'd picked up Libra at some point, but had to put it down because of school work...and now I can't find it. Thank god for the library. :)

from hedgehoggy :

Who were you playing? The flatmate? I'm not too sure what my next move would be.

from holdenrevolt :

I have just been consumed with a great and urgent fear. It is apparent that whichever diary excerpt you choose to represent me with on your friends list is going to be exponentially less cool than everyone else�s. DAMN YOU AND YOUR UNWAIVERING CHOICE OF COOL DIARYS TO BEFRIEND!!!!!

from m91879 :

I just wiped the lot to rid myself of the suspicion that most of it was pretty crap and then your kind offer whizzed across cyberspace...so, putting aside my current inability to write, speak or thinnk English, I'd love to make a start on something new and any help AT ALL would be 'preciated muchly. I'm into anything vaguely punkish, gothic, gonzoid and/or crow-related, I really dig your 'currently reading' section and I wanna be able to post images in the background, on the corners and maybe even learn to do links... ...so if I'm not imposing, drop me a line on [email protected] and I'll send karma so good it can stay fresh for years. And maybe some coffee. -Munch PS. u have no idea how pissed off I was before you sent that note. nice one.

from m91879 :

You got me bang to rights on that one...I never could do subtle. Cheers for the pointers and I'm sorry to hear you're in 'interesting times' right now.

from m91879 :

Can you explain to me in, terms that even a moron could understand, how to set my background as a picture so as to imitate your groovalicious layout? I'm sick of turning green with envy every time I check out your blog. Anywho, Happy New Year and good luck with the fantasy/adventure that the next 12 months hold in store.-Munch

Excellent survey... I may steal it myself. :)

from fridayfilms :

Aw! Thanks, lady.

from lostincoma :

"Sex is primal. It isn't cute. it isn't pretty. It is sweaty and dirty." -- Well said. About the G-spot thing...isn't it pretty much impossible to find for the majority of women? I think finding it is more rare than people think, and they mistakenly think something is wrong with them when they can't find it. Who knows...the only certaintly we have is no, we most certainly don't need men to have a good time. :D

from fridayfilms :

Hey, thanks for adding me. And it's a sad state of affairs when the person in charge can so consistently mess up a simple directive. I can't imagine working in a place where management so openly scorns its own staff, either. Yikes.

from lostincoma :

I *am* a grammar bitch, and those examples drove me nuts. The people who wrote those...is their first language English? I'm inclined to think not.

from hedgehoggy :

Nicely put in regards to Shari. Wonder how someone without the ability to write got such a job.........possibly the words, "Blowjobs all around!" came out during evaluations.

from flnangel :

Hey there! I took the GRE about 4 years ago. It's not that bad. I highly sugget the Kaplan online course. It's a little steep at $500, but a hell of a lot cheaper than a live class, and totally worth it. BTW, have you set up a myspace page? That shit is ADDICTING. I'm editing editing editing my app. essays. It blows, but with enough bottles of wine at the end of the day, I'll get through. Take care missy!

from m91879 :

Caspian ROCKS! Fuck Nicklebrick... -Munch

from hedgehoggy :

Fiona Apple in Chicago on December 4th!

from flnangel :

Hi old friend! Come visit me at www.livejournal.com/users/lindstriss. I have no friends. I talk about lame shit. You'll love it! Tell all your Indiana indie freaks to be my friend (I'll do the same in L.A.) Hope all is well and you're PAINTING. Talk soon!

from hedgehoggy :

Your prof. is right. I come across a lot of Nazis on that channel along with Mussolini (sp?) almost everytime I turn it on in the afternoons. Still, anything on that channel just makes you want to sit and watch. *Waves*

from hedgehoggy :

Hmmmmmmmm.......somehow, I thought you'd say that!

from yeahimadork :

That's an interesting take on Donnie Darko. Every person I ask gives me a different answer every time. I still like the movie (if you can imagine liking a movie you really don't get). Probably because it's full of my cheesy 80's songs.

from hedgehoggy :

Oh, how I love Donnie Darko! So right on "that pesky boyfriend" being of sound mind and judgement as a fan. However, I still disagree with you as to what it is about. Such a happy haunt!

from hedgehoggy :

Oh............My.........Gawd! My jaw just hit the floor and it has yet to be found. I'm sure it's like finding yourself naked but realizing 40 million people did, too,..........on the Internet.

from hissandtell :

Happy birthday, darling! Love, R xxx

from yeahimadork :

Wow... GREAT answers on the Garbage question! Though I knew it would be. I had no idea you were a singer too...such a talented girl. I am jealous! I think Beautiful Garbage is a totally underrated and unappreciated album. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. :)

from sparkspark :

Hi... can I participate in the interview fun?

from yeahimadork :

Hehe... great pictures. :)

from yeahimadork :

My goodie drawer, much like yours, runneth over. There's five or six toys, various lubes, handcuffs, and batteries (I have learned better than to not have spare batteries ready), and alcohol. I have a bullet too, and it probably gets the most use, which is probably why I am on my fourth one. Or maybe I just need to get a man. Or less hormones. :)

from dooki :

Thanks for the add! WEEEE!

from hissandtell :

Awww, that's such a beautiful photograph of you and the boyfriend. (Except, you know, it looks like he's wearing a dental retainer...) And I think I understand about your sense of hollowness when you're apart. I spent years and years not living in the same towns as my true paramours - no matter where I was, they always seemed to be somewhere else entirely, often interstate or overseas - and while I certainly managed to get on with my life very well and find plenty of things and people to distract me, it was always a lot brighter and warmer and shinier whenever I was with them. Love, R xxx

from yeahimadork :

I love love love the Garbage pictures (and the lyrics to Bleed Like Me, which is one of my favorites on that record)!! Job searching does indeed suck much ass. I loathe it with a passion. Good luck, sister. Also, love the pictures of you and the boyfriend. :)

from starzero :

i don't like scientologists, but 'collateral' wasn't bad. same old tc, but jamie foxx ain't bad. oh, and two questions: why 'prevous'? and how'd you find me?

from yeahimadork :

Holy crap! I totally forgot about the NIN today! This is why you're on my favorites, darling. :)

from hissandtell :

Okay, here's you real note now. I loved the photographs - I had no idea you were so gorgeous. And I had NFI about the whole Tom and Katie thing until I read it here. I guess Tom's pretty much persona non grata in this country since he dumped Our Nic and took up with one of the most annoying actresses in the world. ("The pleasure of Sofia" spat out with emotionless rapid-fire machine-gun delivery...) But sex with Tom? Seriously? Really, I suspect the prophylactic would have to be stretched over his head like a balaclava for it to work for me. Or maybe he could just wear that "Eyes Wide Shut" mask. Love, R xxx

from hissandtell :

Wow! What a dark, handsome, brooding, intense, menacing, Heathcliffe-hunk of a boyfriend you have, darling! (What do you call that colour shirt? Rust?) And he dusts and vacuums, too! I only hope you make him wear a frilly French maid's costume and high heels while he does it. Love, R xxx

from hedgehoggy :

Well said on Tom and Katie. I found myself chuckling quite a bit. Plus, that boyfriend of yours is fucking insanely cool. You two must leave burn marks in that bed. Nighty-night.

from yeahimadork :

Disgustingly adorable pictures. :)

from yeahimadork :

Ok. I am about to reveal to you just how truly fucking retarded I really am. Brace yourself. Since you left your note about the Garbage cd (which is fantastic, btw), I have been meaning to check out your diary. So, last night, I finally got around to it (I am flaky. I admit this). And I read your entry about "the boyfriend's" visit, and I sat there wondering "how did this girl find my diary, I wonder?" I even read about the staircase thing, and nothing. Mind you, this is *after* I left a note in the boyfriends diary telling him "wow, after your adventures under the stairs you sound like a lucky guy"(or some crap like that). On drive to work this morning, not even thinking about it, the lightbulb went off, and I made the connection. Duh, Andria. Sheesh.

from morbidalily :

Amen ravengreen!! I've been on the pill since I was 16 or 17 because I was diagnosed with cysts on my ovaries and my periods were painful. Now they want to take me off of it because of "high blood pressure". 130 over 78...high blood pressure my ass. It's not the best admitted but not life threatening. My fiance's mother (who happens to be a doctor) calls bullshit. I'm getting them through her partner now so there won't be a case of personal interest in her practice. Morbidalily

from hissandtell :

Hi - thanks so much for adding me. Sorry I haven't left you a note sooner - I've only had a quick look at your diary so far and found it really intriguing, so I'll make time this weekend to come back and read lots more. Love, R xxx

from spiegelsan :

Wow! you enlightened me in the ways of the gods. i have never been so interested in knowing such details or even thoughts until i read your entry. such insight, such emotion. i completely agree with you(being a female). it would be an irreplacable event had the God of the Underworld came to me. damn your good.

from hedgehoggy :

Oh, I'll be there sooner! I was just talking about the many OTHER visits that will take place. Bad wording so fret none. I'll be there sooner than you think. *Starts running toward Sara's place*

from m91879 :

Hey, you......SMILE.

from ravynespeaks :

Just want to wish you a very Happy New Year. May 2005 be your best year ever!

from m91879 :

Wahey! You're still here! Happy New Year. I checked out the OTEP link; my God she rocks. I'll letcha know when I get that album... Shalom.

from m91879 :

Can't tell you one way or another. Fingers crossed and touching wood though. I've sent a coupla mails but heard nothin' back... I have a copy of that tune, whatever it is, that useda get me up every hill I cycled. Reckon I might havta get hold of that 1st album... Ta 4 writing, I've no other way of knowing anybody even visits the site. Anywho, I gotta go write an entry. -Sooner, MUNCH

from m91879 :

Was it something I said?

from m91879 :

Did OTEP do 'Filthee' "I'm unclean, unclean...I can't get his sent offa me"? If so, v talented as well as v bootiful. By all means, send us your texas millitia, we can house them on the council estate across from me, and they can clean up the shit left by the various hooligans , junkies, thieves and joyriders. We'll need some kinda arrangement with Brazil so they can send in the death squads to deal with them once the job's done, but, overall, I think we've got the makings of a solution. Speak soon.

from m91879 :

Thanks for sticking me in your favourites list, you have one v groovy site which I'll check out again in the not too distant future. Please feel free to leave me messages and whatnot, pass the word around, and tell people you read the Great Grey Hope of all internet-based diaries. I look forward to your continuing continuum. Erm......yesss.

from hedgehoggy :

Oh, I am so with you on this one but I've got a weird observation in my town. The Kerry/Edwards signs are in the poorer section of my town while the Bush/Cheney signs are in the richer area. Any reason? Hmmmmm......We are also having battles since people from both sides are stealing signs and destroying them. Old people are so weird.

from hedgehoggy :

Hey, I just wanted to tell you that I'll get back to you soon. I'm just pretty much conked out at this time since I am due awake at 4:45am tomorrow, dear, and I'd rather send you something of substance rather than debate about weird cartoon characters looking like George Bush. I've got some things to tell ya and I'm sure you know the feeling of tired. LOL *Hugs to you*

from flnangel :

I highly recommend "The Man Who", one of their first albums. It has so many wonderful songs that I love listening to over and over again. Enjoy!

from hedgehoggy :

Do I see some butt crack? Ooooh, I love it when girls are up for fun with cameras! Long live the plumber in you.

from motheaten :

hi who are you?

from progressive :

I don't know if this is still your email address or not, but I"m trying it anyway. Frankly, I'm tired of you telling me I'm wrong. You can't seem to understand that other people have legitimate views of the world. Maybe your not right. Maybe you should allow someone else to have a mind of their own. I don't know if you realize how much of your ideas I completely disagree with, yet I never say a thing. Your theology isn't theology. It's philosophy. You base your theology on your own postmodern logic. I know this isn't the typical nice Chad...but I've frankly put up with this for a long time. Eventually, I just have to tell the truth. Since I held it in, I've now exploded. I enjoy our differences, but stop telling me I'm wrong. I don't care what you think of my theology. I grew up in the church and I spent 4 years studying it yet you tell me what's right based on your OWN logic. I know you didn't get into theology so much on this one but you do it all the time. What I said was a personal thought. God can reveal something to me without it meaning a thing to you. What I wrote wasn't meant to be something to change the world...just a critique through my eyes. Also, I stand behind what I wrote wholeheartedly. Let it just be an opinion.

from hedgehoggy :

The whole email sounds protected. In other words, there seems to be no emotion whatsoever. There is the fact that he praised you in one area but it seems so vague. The way I see it is that the email itself does not necessarily show interest but the possibility is still there, just protected as I said. Obviously, I have to catch up with some of your older entries to understand the whole situation but I'm doing the best I can, dear. Oh, I totally understand your movies thing. There were people bragging about the DVDs they have but all they were were cheap crap at less than $7. I laughed at their collection. Mine is completely golden of so many different types to fit all interests. Everyone keeps telling me about Big Fish. Right now, I'm working on King Arthur so I'll try to catch up. Secretary is on my list of to get. Why? "Because I want it." My collection of DVDs is very impressive. Hope my thought helps.

from flnangel :

BTW BEST TMBG ALBUM EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

from leslieirene :

Hi there! At long last, I'm getting ready to do your review from RareSilk. Don't go nuts trying to put anything in order, or anything like that; I know you requested ages ago, and I understand that. Just a heads-up! :)Leslie:)

from flnangel :

Happy Birthday!!! Mine is on the 8th, I KNEW there was a reason we got along. I'm so sorry about the job, I hate that crap. I know you'll find something better, but it's still such a pain in the ass. Have a great weekend, and I totally understand the no one being in town thing, it sucks!!! Take care!

from hedgehoggy :

I got Trainspotting! It's odd to me that I have seen this movie only once but it left a lasting impression due to the whole look, the characters (Begby was my fave), and the music. Can't wait to sit back with it. I'll get back to you soon......*Enter Iggy Pop's "Lust For Life"*

from hedgehoggy :

*Smirks* Ya know, I have never seen all of Blade Runner but the little bits I did see didn't impress me. The current version according to Ridley Scott is that it lacks so I am waiting for the actual vision cut down by the studio. Maybe I will get it then but not now. Funny how the debate over whether Harrison Ford's character was an android. The Matrix felt right for me because I did see a vision in that movie but soon disappeared a bit as time went by. Peter Jackson didn't have this problem. Oh, I've got more picks of DVDs up my sleeve to drive anyone nuts!

from hedgehoggy :

Man, I didn't even see your Guestbook signing til now! Like I said, my email is fucked up on receiving but super secret account does it all. Now, I remember more in what you described (the little girl, etc.) so it's all coming back to me now. At least, I got the town right in it being Cincinnati. They've got Larry Flynt and co. as well so they're busy. What surprised me is that the "artist" I was talking about is female (read the article yesterday for more info). Most animal abusers are male and studies show they turn into serial killers due to wanting more death (just some useless factual info). Just ask a friend of mine, the ultimate profiler. Any-hoo, I'm off to see my chicks! *It also takes a lot to shock me so maybe I should see this Paris Hilton video due out soon, no?*

from flnangel :

In about a month or so, but I dove into the next one so fast, I'm not really thinking about it (thank God). You should go see Saved, it's good times.

from flnangel :

Hey! I've been so busy studying for my exam and stuff, I haven't really been around. Hooray for BeerTrek. I alas, am a super loser and have little beer enjoyment except for beer and pizza night on Fridays. I am rambling, hungry and sleep deprived. Time to go home. Hope all is well.

from hedgehoggy :

Nope, never seen The Saint Franciseville Experiment. I tend to want my horror movies rated "R" or above since it all tends to be scarier. Exceptions are Jaws, Signs, and The Sixth Sense since they are based on terror and story at the same time. Any movie solely based on horror of werewolves should be a hard "R." Just try to watch Dog Soldiers, something that really got it right and still scares me. Don't you just hate it when people get shot and no blood is produced? Realism is another issue with me.

from hedgehoggy :

The actor you are thinking of is named Brian Cox. Oh, he's a good guy to watch when played with pure evil! Didn't I warn you about Troy? Just how did everyone keep their hair so clean? I wondered if Achilles used Pantene for his golden hair and how some of those people got actual muscles.

from hedgehoggy :

Just wanted to say that I share your love of having an amazing room. Mine contains almost 800 DVDs, over 600 CDs, and a big screen TV with such an abundance of eye stimuli that everyone that enters is overwhelmed. I love Patrick Nagel artwork as well as black and white photos that bring out conversation. My sexy poster of 2 girls kissing is a beauty! Don't fret so much about singlehood. You'll get your panty drawer raided someday. A girl can never have enough panties to tempt the boys. They all remember the first pair they see on their girlfriends. Well, at least, I do.

from hedgehoggy :

*Jaw drops in disbelief* That is a good one to sum up how I feel. LOL I'm so in shock that I don't know what to say to reading such an amusing entry on something I understand. Must be another reason I don't like a fully waxed one. Whoops! That's an overshare. *Bows* Oh, and I'm sure you will find my dear Samantha amusing.......I love her to death, even though she's no werewolf.

from hedgehoggy :

Whoops! Ya misspelled mah name! First time I've ever been called "Hidgehoggy." LOL Oh, how Scooter would laugh at that one.

from hedgehoggy :

My mind is on a script I am about to spruce up but I had to say that The Lost Boys is an amazing experience to behold. From the soundtrack of INXS to seeing David and the boys make California their vampiric playground, you're home. I grew up on this flick and have seen it over 30 times. Besides Jaws, Bring It On, Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Ernest Goes To Camp and Predator, this movie is also in there. Oh, kidding about "Ernest." LOL I can recite line after line of The Lost Boys with ease. Now, back to the show......"What's the matter, Michael? 1 billion Chinese can't be wrong."-David

from hedgehoggy :

I keep forgetting about Netflix for some strange reason. The thing is that I want the DVD in my hand right then and there instead of waiting and waiting. I'm patient but not for a good flick so I'm a bit of an impulse kind o' guy. I just wish people here would turn in their DVDs on time so I don't have to pay THEIR fine. Grrrrrrr. I've no reason to really complain since life has been pretty good lately. I hope time isn't being spent watching the rain come down like it has here. I'm outta here! Smoochies boochies!

from flnangel :

Just checkin' in. With no AIM we don't get to chat as much :(

from hedgehoggy :

Hey, I just read your guestbook entry. My email account didn't tell me about it. I meant well in what I said about girls needing to masturbate with glee. *Laughs* What's interesting is that we have a women's sexuality store that does NOT allow guys in unless accompanied by by a female. Isn't that cool!?! That way, they can pick a nice vibrator without some guy staring at them while drooling. I'm sorry if I'm not as goofy but I seem to have a disgruntled fan, as you know, one of the many people that have decided to clash with me.

from p-o-y :

Welcome to Pieces Of You!

from fireintheice :

Ah, now that would make sense! :)

Hey, I just stumbled upon your QAF entry. Brian does kick arse... love that show! Enjoyed your latest too (America, the Oober Christian Cousin - or would that be uber? anyway...) I liked it so much I just had to come on in and say so! Funny though, as an Aussie I don't see all that much sex on TV, so if you guys have got less, there... damn! What is that 0% or something? The ironic thing is, most sex scenes on Australian TV are from American shows and movies! QAF anyone? Kudos...

from hedgehoggy :

Well, if you'd like to be a dear and send me a copy of Battle Royale, that would be so super! It's impossible here since my town is ruled by religious freaks. I've been reading the book so it's a flick that deserves to be seen. Up, up, and away! *Hedgie waves and then flies to rescue fair maidens*

from flnangel :

Thanks so much! How's the hunt going for you?

from flnangel :

Hey, I want to know how the interview went. I just ate a lot of chocolate, ughhhh. I'll be on AIM until about 11 your time.

from jadedfreedom :

you're reallyreally pretty.

from flnangel :

hi superbuddy, ready to watch Aqua Teen Hunger force on Tuesday nights? (it's Beer Trek eve, you know)

from pushpull :

hey there. thanks for linking me in your profile. i didn't have but a second to look at your diary today, but i love the meg white layout, and i saw your pictures. you are stunning - truly beautiful. well, see you around, talk to you later!

from flnangel :

yeah, I'm super excited about the office, I didn't think that would happen this early in my career. Hooray for small business sans red tape!

from coradoe83 :

just wanted to say i liked your layout!

from apexsensatin :

That fundraiser is wrong on so many levels. One, you have people gorging on food to feed the hungry and two, you have people eating White Castle burgers! Actually, I can't comment on White Castle burgers. We don't have any locally. Oh, and I think Fiona Apple and Garbage have CD's coming out soon.

from spritopias :

Sorry, I blew our shot at the state title because I was getting high. I hope you understand.

from halfdevoured :

I've been having a hard time trying to deal with what feels like a void in my life. I keep finding my attention wandering from reading, writing, photography, music, being social, being a hermit, and I still have not figured out what it is that I am supposed to be doing. It's frustrating, but I refuse to stop trying to make something happen. So please, hang in there. I hope that you find someone nearby that you can talk with soon. I know how it feels need someone to confide in when you're feeling desperate. I know that I'm a stranger, but send me an email if you need to vent. I hope that things get better soon.

from clark-kent :

Cake does indeed rock. And thanks for the welcome back. Good to be back.

from flnangel :

I love Mary Reilly too. So intriguing! People don't know what the hell they're talking about. I mean, Hello!! Ever seen "The 'Burbs" with Tom Hanks?? Classic cinema.

from flnangel :

Man, the Dread Pirate Roberts is my Homie! I would kill to be "mostly nearly dead". Besides that, what's up girl? I'm having Left Coast Beer Trek, wish you were here!

from aliop33 :

Thanks for the info and thanks for adding me to your fav list! I will be updating mine shortly and have you on my update list. Thanks again.

That dike thing was perfect....what chapter is it in? I have to show my wife...she'll get a kick. Megan

from flnangel :

Hey. I always forget things like that. I also forget how to spell REALLY easy words. Curse you, spellcheck.

from flnangel :

p.s. Thanks for the entry, you're pretty damn cool just for having the BeerTrek in the first place! Snaps to you (a ghetto-like toast).

from flnangel :

In case you haven't read my latest entry, I'm on Friendster. Are you? That shit is addicting. If so, I'll e-mail you my e-mail (my real one) and we can be "friends". Oh God, I'm so pathetic.

from flnangel :

Damn, I want a BeerTrek in L.A. I think I will start one tonight - by myself.

from shazia :

hey. i'm a fan of underworld. and also vampire legends of the past. look up elizabeth bathory sometime.

from spritopias :

Well, I hope you enjoy the diary once you've gotten a chance to read it. I try to be entertaining and interesting...I said, "try"

from fires-blush :

I just saw your diar and I think the icon thing is a very cool idea. Of course I couldn't implimant it on mine because my mood usually changes by the time I'm done writing an entry. So your idea is safe from me. I think there once was a point to this post so I'll leave before I muddle it any more.

from viperj :

I just dropped by to say that you are a good writer and I think that I'll check your diary out more often.

from shazia :

hello there. you do not know me, but i've read your diary. and i just wanted to say, i know how you feel with the whole virgin thing. it's like we all were once standing on this purity pedalstol and all of a sudden you think you've got people surrounding you, but once you look around you notice they've all fallen off. well, i'm on that pedastol with you. and i'm not planning on joining the rest who've jumped off anytime soon. hang in there girl.

from girl-aflame :

Thank you :) I depend a lot on reader feedback on things in that area. I also like to know who is actually reading and who just put me on their list and is too nice to take me off again *laughs*

from bitchyview :

Hello.We were wondering if you would like a review from our brand new site.Try it!It'll be fun!Remember to read the rules!

from zerom3ph :

that's funny; a little while ago, a friend and i thought about starting a rave aerobics class: be kinda like a mix between tai-chi, boxing, and actual aerobics.

Thank you very much for your continued support of GA-Templates. I appreciate it :)

from zerom3ph :

perhaps check out some cibo matto?

from girl-aflame :

Hey raven... I kind of feel like Jewel sold out with Intuition too... maybe I'll reach your current conclusions about it in time. The song IS very catchy.. it''s just hard to think about Jewel and electronic synthesizing, you know? Certainly a long way from "Daddy" on POY.

from prvbs31 :

Hello-- found out about your on-line diary through dsp13 (my friend), then somehow I kept clicking until I ended up here. *shrugs shoulders* Cool stuff. Hang in there. Peace and hair grease. 8-)

from heidiann :

Welcome to the Bibliomaniac diaryring. Thanks so much for joining. =)

from girl-aflame :

Hey I see the black now! It looks really great! So great in fact that *laughs* I might add a black version of it to my site!

from ga-templates :

I noticed that too (it's white on my comp as well)...I was wondering why you chose white, since the links are white! *laughs* I found your trouble. When I viewed your source code, up at the very top where the first style tag is, it says: <body { you've got to take out that little arrow, or else it makes the CSS go blank. It doesn't recognize that as a valid style character (and of course it wasn't on purpose, it's just a bit of leftover code from something that was erased or whatever). Try that and I'll let you know if it changes to black or not.

from girl-aflame :

Hullo. I thought of something last night that probably is causing your problem on the archive page. (don't know if you tried to fix it yet or not). If you click on "change the way my individual older entries appear" on the change template page, you'll see that he has it set up so that the links are +1 font to whatever the dates show up as. Take that little bit of code out.. that's what makes them so big. Also, in my last note, the period I was referring to was in your profile after "girl-aflame." Sorry, I was sort of vague. Have a lovely day!

from girl-aflame :

Thanks so much for linking me, and to the template place too! Very kind of you! Just one thing.. there's an accidental period after my diary name.. it'll cause an error in the link. :) Btw... that icon thing is so original..

from ga-templates :

Hi! I'm very pleased that you like the template. I looked at your source code on the older page and I can fix the links for you. Also, the links to regular places are white because originally that link class (class=phrase) was inside the picture. On the picture the white shows up. On a white background, it doesn't. If you want me to tweak this for you a little and give it a more custom feel I would be glad to do that.. the outside scrollbars, for instance, aren't colored because on the original design the page didn't scroll. If there are any changes you want me to make other than the font size, let me know. To change the font size: open the box to edit your older entry code, and above the place all the links start put this: A {font-size:10pt;} or however big you would like the links to be. Oh one more thing. Please put somewhere on the template a little snippet like, "modified by ravengreen" or something. It helps when people come to my site looking for your exact design and it isn't there because it was tweaked. Thank you very much and enjoy the template! If you need anything else, don't hesitate to let me know.

from girl-aflame :

Thanks for the guestbook entry! That sounds like a very cool song. I am very interested in the idea of unconditional universal love, yes. I have some philosophies on it, too long to put into notes, but I appreciate the recommendation very much!

from coffeeadikt :

I used to laugh at those stupid Greek stories (I mean, come on, Sisyphus and that stupid rock; and why didn't Achilles wear metal shoes then?) but the more I think about it the more I appreciate the pessimistic grasp on human nature that they allude to.

from tastetest :

hiya1 i just wanted to thank you for listing my diary:)

from goddess19 :

i love reading your diary. you are so cute. i still think that you and B should get together. haha. but anyway i was leaving a note just to say that i met susan sheppard, the chic who made the pheonix cards. she is a really cool chic and she used to write astrology for seventeen magazine. i was just suprised to see that someone was using that deck. i didnt know that it was that popular. that is all.

from ciots :

i love your entry about masturbation...i actually wrote an article on it for a magazine, how it was a taboo subject an dall yet everyone does it, like you say...although i made it more humourous and added a top 5 list of how to do it (for males) pretty funny/disgusting actually...

from ciots :

saw you added me to your favourites...too a look at your journal...not too bad...not too bad indeed ;)

from coffeeadikt :

You should read the short story of Minority Report also. Thankfully Spielberg changed the ending of his movie, but the book's ending is pleasantly more cerebral. Plus the title "Minority Report" makes more sense for the short story. Sorry, the psychics are still treated like garbage =(

from potireviews :

You requested a review from Pretty on the Inside a very long time ago and I was just wondering if you'd still like that review. If not I understand, please forgive us for the atrocious delay. If you would still like a review please leave us a note. Thank you

from progressive :

I just wanted to tell you that I can relate to your "long entry on why ceramics boy sux." Only I knew that she had a significant other from the very beginning. You and I both let our hopes take over our rationale. And why not? I certainly wanted to believe "it" was true.

from curvereviews :

your review is finished and has been posted at http://curvereviews.diaryland.com/ravengreen.html

from shisa :

Thanks for joining the raistlin ring ^_^

from alayah :

Spare me from your smart-ass remarks about the rules of joining the NIN ring. 99% of the time, people who join don't seem to know how to read--Meaning they don't heed my two small rules. In addition, RingWhores are those individuals who will join any ring "just because." I'd rather ~not~ have people in this ring that have never heard the band NIN or even like them. Have a nice day.

from coffeeadikt :

Hmm.. I checked through all my entries using that search tool you get with the Edit/Delete entries and I wasn't able to find anything I've written on Emo. Plus I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to define Emo anyways, except for maybe as punk music gone lovey-dovey. In addition, the only entry I've ever deleted was one in which I talked in great length about my penis. I got rid of that because after I wrote it I found myself thinking, "If I weren't me, I'd want to hit whoever wrote this for being so stupid." Unfortunately, I few of my friends DID read that entry and they DID hit me for being stupid. Anyways, enough about my penis. I think you're thinking of someone else's diary entry.

from drhead :

i'm afraid i've never seen rent. i just thought it would be real <i>racy</i> and <i>cutting edge</i> of me to use curse words.

from iamen :

watch less movies.

from gollybop :

I'm that so-called pathetic thing you have posted on your diary. We'll talk. IM me online. thejwry My life is a joke and it lacks great things. I just haven't come up with why I keep getting BASTARDS like you turning everything I say around. No I'm jk. IM me or drop me some notes.

from goddess19 :

honey, i think that it is so obvious that you and B have the hots for each other. now i know that you think that i am probably crazy, but they way that you talk about him i think you sound like you really like him. not just as a friend. now i think that this is on a subconcious level and that you dont even know it yet. but dont let him get away. why worry about dumb ol' T when you could have the perfect person for you right under your nose. I love your diary btw! keep up the good work. hehe. i think i might get to caught up in other peoples soap operas.

from uncoolme :

hi. i'm the one who tagged you on diarytag, way to go, with the checking the members list. he. okay. here's your question. What would your motto would be for the place you're at in your life right now? Is it different than it would have been five years ago? 10? 20? (this is from diarist.net) sorry its kinda dumb. but i couldnt think of anything. i guess i'm lame like that. but i like your layout by the way. see ya.

from august-x :

i started to fill out an application to Pier 1, once. All these questions like "Would you ever steal from your place of work?" and "Would you ever kill your boss?" You know what I did? I answered honestly! I bet that was a first. They never called me for an interview, though.

from monkeydoo :

yep. long story but the short of it is new diary with new style and since i know jack about HTML, it will have to come as D-Land gives it. word.

yeah, i had a lavender moment. though i am a blue person, i just needed something new. i shall be blue again soon though.

from sageadvice :

Hey, I've been visiting your diary for a while now and I figured it's time I at least said hi. There's not enough cute, intelligent girls in the world these days to risk not to! Anyway, you're funny so keep it up. Or you can be like me and draw people in with the funny stuff and then slam them with the emotional stuff when they're not looking. I'll let you know how that works out.

from coffeeadikt :

(1/17) James Earl Ray, eh? That's so twisted.

from marroxus :

Hi! I found your site thru coffeeadikt. I just wanted to tell you that I could not agree more w/ your ideas about keeping an online diary. I keep mine for the same reasons. I'm not trying to enlighten anyone. It's my place to write down whatever needs to come out. Keep up the good work! I'll be back for more.

from monkeydoo :

really? my horoscope says i should marry a monkey or a rat late in life. hmmm. keep in touch, ok?

from lobotomybabe :

Please don't misunderstand me--I was responding to someone who said he thought my diary lacked insights and I was wondering if other people felt that way about my diary or if they even felt the diaries needed to offer deep personal insights. I think they should be just what you said--a place for brain dumps and sometimes those things are banal, sometimes whiny, sometimes insightful. There are no shoulds in a diary! --L

from larrielou :

Ooooh I'm so liking this diary already :-) But anyone who USES the term 'fuck buddy' is just...well, beyond words, really. Ravengreen, congratulations - I believe you're the first to leave me speechless. Or at least your 'friend' is..... :-)

Fantastic essay about censorship and Mrs. Gore. I greatly enjoyed it, and I hope you do well.

from idiosingcat :

i'm unforgivably narcissistic and unrepentantly self-indulgent. thanks for listing me. also, the fact that you have written your paper while i still have not done mine both angers me and gives me hope. lastly, i love that you update your diary more often than i do.

from monkeydoo :

what about strawberry jelly? think you can handle it? that has always been my favorite with the way it goes so well with both peanut butter and like a biscuit and stuff. hope all is well.
