It's Olivia! http://www.its-olivia.com en-us CuteNews <![CDATA[D.A.N.C.E.]]>
I was at my parents' house;
My dad called from work to tell me about it.
I said "Wow, that's so sad",
And went back to working on my current project.
However, my mom came home upset,
And the rest of my evening plunged into the tragedy.

Most of the publicity has been reverent.
Celebrating his life and mourning is his death.
Recounting his many achievements and contributions to the world.
He was truly original; truly talented; truly beloved.

However, there are disgusting individuals that feed off the misery and faults of celebrities. Even just hours after they've passed away. Some do it for free, and others do it for monetary gain. I don't know which is more disturbing.

Being anti-news, the only Michael Jackson information I had to go on were pathetic comedians and depraved animation.

Among other things,
I learned Michael Jackson provided DNA samples in the child molestation trial. And proved his case so well the buzzards couldn't even file a civil suit. Previous allegations ended in settlement because lawyer fees would have exceeded the settlement (as they did in the case that went to trial).

Michael Jackson the star. Michael Jackson the icon. Michael Jackson the joke. No one seems to acknowledge him as a person; a human being.
I just hope he is somewhere at peace; happy.

I can't believe I'm actually blogging more on So Pink than here.

I am very busy with school, work, and projects...

Hopefully I shall remember to update here more often.

Entries like that always make me feel kind of vulnerable.

Anyway,
I asked for topics to type about two entries ago.
So here goes...

something debatable like abortions or drugs or tattoos
Okay, I pick tattoos. They don't bother me. Mark up your skin any way you like.

how you feel about certain issues on the news
I don't watch the news.

how about the amount of job's lost in the US or reality television
I don't watch much reality television anymore. I have heard of people losing their jobs. But, I don't know anyone that actually has. Apparently the number of long-term unemployed is 2.9 million as of this February; which makes me very grateful to have my sucky job.

have any friend issues
Yes, I do... I really, really do.

exactly what you do at college, and why everyone always says it's boring
People do different things in college... What do I do? I go to class and occasionally do homework. I used to hit up the parties/clubs, but I got tired of that fast. Organizations are out as I want to decrease (not increase) my obligations. I wouldn't say college is boring. I just think most people are over formal education after being subjected to it for 14 to 15 years straight.

music blog, fashion blog
Fashion... You mean Freddy Krueger sweaters, lumber jack shirts, and skinny jeans? Eck! Music... Womanizer!

knowing the difference between a friend and an acquaintance
Friends are people you can truly be yourself around, and they come through for you whenever they can. An acquaintance is just someone you know, and don't mind hanging out with.

fun facts about yourself
Fun facts... Um, I like to do 1980s jazzercise.

something that you wish could happen
I wish everyone really had a conscience that punished them when they did something wrong. But, what is wrong? I wish I had objective definitions of right and wrong. Oh and, of course, I wish I had a billion dollars.

things that were interesting to you and not to the average human being
Purchasing loads of domain names.

something funny that happened when you were younger
lol... I am going back to bed now.]]> 1237097931 Sun, 15 Mar 2009 01:18:51 -0500 <![CDATA[Hobbs is gone]]> I put Hobbs in his carrier, rode to the humane society, signed a release, and left him there.

At the shelter,
I mechanically detailed the damage he had done to my home,
Presented by scratched and bitten body for inspection,
And neatly signed my signature.

When I got home,
I cried and called my dad (mom didn't pick up the phone).
He made me feel a lot better, but I still cry sporadically.

I just feel so guilty and sad,
I got him May 23, 2008 when he was 2 months old.
He has always been a problem child,
But I thought he would straighten out.

The past 10 months have been up, down, up, down.
This last "down" has cost me almost $500.
And I just couldn't take anymore from a cat that doesn't allow holding/touching for more than 60 seconds.

I take a little solace in the fact that it's a no-kill shelter,
And was actually over-crowded with people looking for animals to adopt.

I hate making my blog entries too long.
So, I will blog about my other daunting experience tomorrow.]]> 1237053781 Sat, 14 Mar 2009 13:03:01 -0500 <![CDATA[Don't Trust GoDaddy!]]>
As many know, I have been increasing interested in addicted to purchasing pre-owned domains.

Yesterday, I decided to give GoDaddy Auctions a try.
I paid their $4.99/year fee, and found a $10 domain to bid on.
Before I made the bid, I looked up the Whois for the domain.
Note the expiration date is 02/04/2010.

I won the auction (only bidder).
At checkout, an extra $10.89 was required to renew the expired domain. That's right... expired!

Nowhere was I notified that the domain had expired.
Buying an expired domain means (1) you have to pay to renew it, and (2) the original owner can take it back up to 42 days after it expired.

I called their support, who basically told me Too Bad.
And I have just contacted email support.
However, I do not expect a much better response.
Email support was actually worse.

I am transferring all my domains at GoDaddy to somewhere else.
And won't give GoDaddy, or should I say NoDaddy, another cent.

This lesson cost me $25.88, but I'm giving it to you for free.]]> 1236832372 Wed, 11 Mar 2009 23:32:52 -0500 <![CDATA[Feel Good Drag]]> Would you like to take over recognizable.org?
[/edit]

I don't know exactly what to blog about,
But I feel I should, lol.

The title is the title of a Anberlin song.
(heh)

I really need to stop buying domains.
It's like oh that one is only $8 or that one is only $25,
I have to get it! (addict)

... Yeah.

Oh hey, share a few of the forums you frequent.
I'm looking for a spot that's not dead happy

And if you're rather clever,
Give me a topic to blog about in my next entry.]]> 1236000552 Mon, 02 Mar 2009 07:29:12 -0600 <![CDATA[Too much Pink!]]> Especially if you have free visitor content,
Because that list is so small, heh.

The So Pink applications are getting a tad overwhelming.
I kind of want to have someone else to accept/reject.
But, I'm not sure how to make that work. It's all good now.

You wanna see Hobbs?

Hobbs

He hates having his picture taken just like his mommy, lol.

Oh and here is that carrier I got him when I flew home...
(he was in the cabin with me)

My heart signs seriously lack estrogen. *sad*

I decided to put NoSrsly off until March.

The creatures in my layout are not bunnies!
They're pandabuns (pandas with bunny ears).
Made exclusively for me by a Kawaiiville member.

We all have things that annoy us on the personal or goodie website scene. Here are a few of mine...

1. Music.
Please just take it away! One minute, I'm happily listening to my iTunes. The next, I'm blasted with an insidious cacophony. I know you think Katy Perry and Rihanna are talented. But, I don't! Think of my ears! My ears!

2. Resource websites with premade layouts.
I mean c'mon... You want me to use your content when you're not even using your content? Doesn't make sense.

3. Hypocritical blog entries.
The most annoying are ones where the author gripes about how much they hate other bloggers who gripe.

4. My Eyes Only: Links to private accounts
There is no reason for a link to your cPanel or WordPress to be on your website. What are you doing?!

5. Automatic Pop-ups, No-Right-Click, and Cursor Removal
(a) You know, the pop-ups that appear when you simply view the page. And won't go away until you click "OK". (b) Listen, disabling the ability to right-click will not keep your work safe. Anyone can view source, copy, and paste. I heart new tabs (c) Why?! There is no point in taking away my ability to see my cursor.

What is your list?

This is not meant to be offensive or define ultimate right/wrong.
We're just stating opinions and preferences, darling.

I did this once before in September 2007
Ah memories...]]> 1234352715 Wed, 11 Feb 2009 05:45:15 -0600 <![CDATA[Almost there]]>
This has to be the worse email I've gotten in a long time.

Commenters, don't hate me!

As soon as I finish tweaking this layout, and get Nosrsly back up.
I will resume persistent visitation of your websites smile]]> 1233083330 Tue, 27 Jan 2009 13:08:50 -0600 <![CDATA[Oh, Tiffany]]>
lol... Yeah, the layout has changed.
It's rather lazy.
My chief concern is how the colors will show up on other screens.
And it looks a little WordPressy

I have been pretty busy.
And after I deal with So Pink matters,
I didn't have much time for anything else.

It's not that I don't love my blog.
Things are just different when there are people depending on you.

Anyway, drop your comments and criticism, darling.]]> 1232806784 Sat, 24 Jan 2009 08:19:44 -0600
