Thursday, September 14th, 2000 2:22p i called
my mom and asked her if we could just get together for a shorter periods
of time more often , instead of long periods of time not very often.
i don't feel mentally ready to spend an entire day with her. i think
it would be better for both of us to just take things in shorter chunks
to ease ourselves into a more lighter friendship. whenever my mom
wants to get together it's always in the context of "do u want
to come over to the house for the weekend ". and with my dad,
he just drives in and we have lunch...and i think that appraoach works
a lot better for me, as i tend to feel too trapped then get nervous
if i think i have to "stay at my best behaviour" for days
at a time. i thought i was
getting my period the other day, then it stopped, and my stomache
has been bloated out like a balloon for weeks. and i THINK i might
be getting my period today...maybe. oh yes, the ever ego feeding cam experience! seriously, having acam is not all compliments 24/7, as any cam person knows. u really have to have a very strong sense of self to be on cam THIS long, i think. i am adamant to lose this 15 pounds starrting today. not because of what that guy said ( that would be rather crazy of me ), but because i just can't stand feeling like a bloatation device for one second longer. i want to fit back into all my cool clothes! i can't even get my slinky thigh high boots! blarg and more blarg! even if i don't get to walk outside ( because usually when i feel like walking it's at night ), i am gonna go walk on the treadmill that i have access to near me. goddammit. i hate going on excerise equipment when others around . i feel like a dork. but i want to lose 15 pounds and feel better and be more flexible! dorkness be damned! my GOD i am so happy that i am not getting together with my mom tomorrow! i'm gonna go bleach
my hair now because my hair looks incredibly stupid. then i hope i
will still have time to get outside to do some stuff i gotta do that
i've been putting off all week long right now on oprah, it is on a subject that really pisses me off. makeovers. this one is about teens that dress too sexy for their mom's taste. and yes, that is areally stupid typical talk show thing for oprah to do. so yes, oprah is not ALWAYS my knight in shining armour :) so... first of all WHY oh WHY oh WHY are we still telling our daughters to cover up? that makes me sad for the myriad of obvious reasons. that i sending
such a sad message to our daughters. what is wrong with looking older? isn't that sending a really confusing message? is it just because we are fearful that men will have sex with them if they are underage? and if this is our fear..shouldn't we just instill in them a sense of self and pride nad centeredness so they DON'T get in "over their head"? because what are we saying to them? we don't trust them? we don't trust men? and that somehow because we don't trust men it is up to the daughter to dress in a way that will not turn men on? what's wrong with
make up? if they wanna wear it , let them! who cares! and these mothers
are like "let there be something left to the imagination" what...let the men be titilated in letting their imaginations run wild as to what's under there? and DUH, we ALL now what' s under there. it's a called a BODY. and one mother said that despite her daughters chunky figure, she still wore "whatever she wanted to" GOD. let's just instiull some more SHAME, ok? do we EVER EVER
EVER tell boys to not dress "older than they are"? we REWARD all children when they evolve and grow in every way. and we REWARD then when they act older than they are in every way EXCEPT when girls want to dress up in anything "sexy" WHATEVER. i think that instilling in our children a sense of centeredness and LOVE and all that will do our children FAR better than attending to something as stupud s what they are wearing. and the same thing goes for ALL makeovers that are forced upon these people i see on talk shows that are doing make overs. let people be! let them wears what they wanna! who CARES what they are wearing or not wearing! and those poor women and men that have long hair and have been growing it forever and someone wants them to cut it. how selfish of people. i have never seen one person who went through that who does not cry. it's so sad. why are we teaching people that it' s ok to inflict upon another what WE think they SHOULD be wearing? and they are telling these girls " be pastel, and sheer!" and WTF? what if the girl HATES pastel colours! whatever! it's just sending such a shallow message to our children, to EVERYONE force force force. conform conform conform hide hide hide fit in fit in fit in bleck. here are all the responses from that entry

i wish there was
an instant polaroid camera that u could focus yourself..not autofocus i should probably just get a digital camera, but there is something so nice about having a tangible physical picture in your hand right away :) is there really a huge difference in a cheap polaroid camera and a really expensive one? i need to soak my hair in vinegar to get all the gunk out. then bleach it some more. my hands are hot but my feet are cold. i really should get outside to do all things i should do. all the things i've been telling u i should do all week. vera little sent
me this gorgeous photo of herseld in sepia tone and signed it :) i had it framed, and i can go get that today cause it's done :) god, i didn't know that framing stiff is SO DAMN EXPENSIVE! it was 70 bucks! is that normal? i have SO many things i want to get framed. like big posters and stuff. if it was 70 bucks to frame one little 8x10 photo is it gonna cost 300 bucks to frame a large poster? all these things have built up through my life. all these things to get framed and ao much dry cleaning! but i never had the $ to do anything about it. now i do...but damn...it still feels WAY too luxurious to get any of this stuff actually done eek. i have never been one too much to get stuff framed. i have always been "punk rock" about it and just nailed it to my walls. but now i can see that getting things framed will save it longer. i don't want to see things i love get slowly ruined and bent or ripped TOO much i am listening to my song "ripped to shreds" now, from my album "introducing sorrow" that u can download for free in www.anacam.com/anamusiq i have it in my 301 cd changer placed on random right now damn, that is
an ambitious song! i really am a good song writer and musician on
that song, for the age of 22. i gotta go check
the snail mail now. no wait..i'm loking at thetimes and it SHOULD be up hrere, but it's just not...
i purposely went without a watch for almost a year once just to try to see if i could adapt...but all i did is stop people on the street and ask them what time it was constantly. at the time, i think i needed to know the time cause i had a retail job and i took buses. and now, even tho "my time is my own", meaning i can do whatever i want whenever i want ( sort of )...i still am a stickler to know what time it is. very strange,
since also i am never "on time" either i think saturn is in retrograde i am listening
to the raincoats here are the enrties that i could not get "above" 10:59p: then they have the "art" portion of their site where u can see all these amzingly beautiful photos that people took with polaroid cameras. and they will tell u what kind of FILM they used, but not what kind of polaroid camera! and they said they had special sepia toned film! aa!!! want it! but WHERE is it? and what kind of camera uses it? want! too bad that the polaroid camera they have that is for dentists and stuff that takes really close up shots , only seems to do colour! anyway...if anyone
knows which polarpid cameras use the 600 black and white film, please
let me know. 10:47p: i found the camera
and here is what is is: hmmm.... www.chemie.unibas.ch/~holder/SX70.html i have no idea if the camera i have even works...or what kind of film it takes, or if it needs a battery or something, but i hope i will find all of this out at that url i need some food it says: it's new... it's black and white... it's instant... Polaroid is now making black and white 600 series pack film. if you clip off the little plastic tabs off it, it's ready for sx-70 usage. the added bonus is, since it's 300 speed, and the sx-70 is programmed to shoot at 100 speed, this new b+w film is great for night shoots. it takes long exposures, and picks up everything. you can get it anywhere, it's at walgreens and kmart and wherever... ----- there are also
LOTS of cool polaroid pix there :)
i bought a game
boy camera/printer at buy.com it's kind a cool
having my extensions out right now my friend, the
livejournal user "beep" who is the sister of my best friend
carolyn, who was the bassist in my band, the blue up? i wanna talk to her more about that i need to call carolyn. i have not talked to her in so lomg and she has left so many messages on my machine. i get so introverted so often it is hard for me to call people on the phone or see them i wish carolyn
had email

so i made a bunch of dumb posts to get my LJ 2 show my entries, and then once i did the job, i erased most of the entries except for these...
and TONS of my
LJ entries are gone except for that u can see them in "calendar
view" here:
probably everyone on my friends list can read this....but that is all..... maybe i should
not have my own unique LJ design, and that is what is fucking it up?
i need to listen 2 the talking heads more often that would do me good did u know that
the prez of radioactive ( subsidiary of MCA, which is a subsidiary
of Universal Studios, which is a subsidiary of Seagrams Liquor...)
mind blowing....
she said i had
to start being nice to her! she was the one
who told me that what i did was DISGUSTING! have i ever said anythng
like that 2 her???? and when i called her on that...she was triply unhappy saying, " we should not talk about that . we should not talk about this...i am going to go" then she got on e because i swear saying that god doesn't like that. i said that SHE
( god ), i'm sure doesn't CARE about language. if i was god....do
u think i would care if people said "FUCK"? there are wars
going on does "god" care about the word "shit" being said in some house while throats are being slit? unreal.
the thing is is that my brother, who is adopted, who is black....has fetal alcohol syndrome...which means he has no consience. and he has sniffed glue and gas which made him crazier...and he has lived in small white towns all his life nad has motorcycle gangs trying to run him over. he is scared shitless. he finally got moved to a better place that is for the poor and has security....and some guy freaked on him and got thrwon from the building...but this really fuct up my brother and he started to drink again...so bot my parents went dowjn three to intervene
it's really crazy it's hard to explain... wow here are all the responses to that entry
( no entries for the 17th...odd....i hope they didn't get erased! i find it hard to believe that i made no entries for that day ) Monday, September 18th, 2000
i'm gonna light
some nag champa incense and after calling several 1 800 lones nad being transferred all over the place, i finally got my mastercard payed. i think i'll cool
some green beans. i feel so overwhelmed
today. i worked a lot on ana2 stuff. but today is perhaps just oen of those days that shall pass and everything will be better tomorrow. i am just continuing
to trod on, even if i am going only as fast as a snail... 2:48a zuul he's suicidal...and
i'm REALLY worried about him! now i want to
quite it, yet i can find NO numbers to unsub. Wednesday, September 20th, 2000

more big bro news - eddie posted by ANA on September 11, 2000 at 13:28:08: the salon is a really good place to go to read a lot of things about big brother. except that they hate chiquita, the pug :( and also it seems that they WANT the houseguests to be mean to each other, for our entertainment. which is what big brother wants. i agree that drama
is , for the most part, more entertaining than regular ordinary days.
why is a house full of diverse people being friends a disapointing thing as opposed to a house full of diverse people ripping each other's hair out? i guess THAT'S why i find the show "refreshing", even tho other's do not. the amercian big brother tv show did NOT "go as planned", and isn't THAT the crux of what "reality tv" is supposed to be about? REALITY? i am really disapointed
in the big brother show that they have repeatedly tried to make this
all as fake as possible, and have changed the rules as they went along. and then finally the other day, the household was going to walk out en masse on wednesday to make a statement that friendship rules over competition. and that dignity rules over money. and i thought that KICKED ASS! so what does the show do? well, u can read about it at salon at that url above. big brother IS the perfect name for the show. absolutely. i can't wait to hear what these houseguests will feel about their decision to be swayed by big brother not rebel...after they have left the house and they find out the whole story. and when they
have big brother 2, it will be very interesting to see what kinds
of people they pick to be in the house as opposed to who they picked
this time around. i wouldn't be surprised at all, if , for the next one, they picked some actors of their own just to make sure the house will be full of action packed turmoil Posted by ANA on September 11, 2000 at 16:29:07: In Reply to: Re:

2000 at 15:26:28: also, it was interesting to find out that george's wife , teresa's efforts to banish brittanny actually had barely an effect at all! i guess onlya few hundred votes came of that...whereas brittany's actual tally of votes to get her out was around 40,000! ( i read that at salon.com ) and all throughout the news everywhere...they are citing that it was because of george's wife that brittanny got banished...( surprise surprise, that the news doesn't invesitagte a damn thing but jusr reports what it gets fed ) still..all in
all....i don't know WHO to believe anymore of what is going on. conspiracies
abound! In Reply to: Re:
big brother rebellion squashed posted by blonnie on September 11,
2000 at 16:41:04: in fact, oen time
that he niminated josh for banishment..he siad the reason why was
because josh had made a statement that he'd rather "do a guy
than kiss a guy" anyway, george said in the red room that he was niminating josh for saying that because he didn't want josh to furthe tarnish his reputatiion by saying things like that. then george did a skit that pretty much dissed and stereotyped men from the middle east who own convenience stores, as he dress up in a sheet and tried to imitate them and did this awful accent saying , " please vote for george to stay in the house because he is good customer to we convenience store owners!" etcetc and ya, then dressing up like karen with these big fake boobs and what not. he just sucks.

at 17:47:59: yet...if he wanted her to stop, why doesn't he jus SAY it to all the cams in there for her to stop their plan? he certainly is one hell of a conflicted person. it's funny that the two people in the house that seem the "sweetest" ( george and jamie ) are actually the most conniving! i love jhow jamie
was totally busted the other day in the red room how she said she
would have taken the money and left if it had been 100,000 and it
would go to george , because george deserves it. busted! Posted by ANA on September 11, 2000 at 16:36:57: In Reply to: Re:

12, 2000 at 16:18:39: certainly there is a lot about religion in general that is hurtful, confusing, and downright weird BUT, i must say ...in defense of my dad who is a lutheran minister...that my dad is an amazing person that is so very very very kind and is an inspiration to me in so many ways. if anyone has ever been true to teachings of christ ( do unto other as u would have them do unto u )...he really has walked that path and he is ALMOST
free on judgementalness he lets me BE
:) here is an article
on suffering: there are also some VERY good mailing lists with many great people on them at spiritweb.org one is a healing list. maybe u could subscribe to it and ask people on the list about ways to heal yourself also, there are a lot of very cool reiki healers who can heal from any distance. u can find them on the web and email them what is going wrong and ask for a FREE healing. and these things really do work! serveral times i have asked for this kind of assistance, and my life has benefited from it there are also a lot of very wonderful prayer circles on the net and many many people will "pray/visualize" that healing assistance will come your way. these things work! give it a try. why not? sometimes when u get as low as where u are now u need assitance to bring u up to a leval where u can at least see a light. the universe is connected through u. u are not alone. i know these words will most likely seem silly to u...but i have to try to tel u what has worked for me i love u , zuul, and i would be seriously bummed out for the rest of my life if u killed yourself. i had another
friend who killed himself...and not a day goes by that i don't think
of him with a hurting heart In Reply to: Who
Is Rachael Olson? posted by dollink on September 15, 2000 at 14:37:11: in this state, if u include your full legal name in your business name, u don't have to apply for all sorts of licenses which are a pain in the ass. therefore, i decided to call my business "who is rachael olson" to be clever :) Posted by ANA on September 19, 2000 at 13:20:40:OK....I AM REDOING
SOME THINGS... like their would be one link one the menu that would bring up cam#1 remote cam, and underneath the picture are the links to the other remote cams plus the menu i haven't gotten the link under the streamcam to function correctly...but i'll figure it out... did u see that
i made all 4 cams very small so u can watch all 4 with a remote now? tell me what u think :) right now, cam#2
which usually used to be the mobile cam..but right now is broken,
is the kind of shitty kogitech cam that started to work again, for
no reason. it was the one i was putting captions on the last few weeks.
when i get that fixed or replaced, that will be cam, #2
let me know what u think of all the remote cams at the moment...so i cam go forward with this new compact way of doing things
