Random Crapola

 
Currently Reading
Xenocide (Ender, Book 3) (Ender Quartet)
By Orson Scott Card

Xanga news at the bottom...
 
A link to the 2nd best thing about this week, the first being the initial article in the Jackson Free Press. 
 
 
My kids were thrilled beyond belief to be quoted and I cried when I read that people were discussing what I wrote and LIKING it. 
 
So bizarre to have random strangers coming up to me to say they read it or gave it to a friend.  Such an honor.
 
 
How fun to have a friend bring over a bottle of champagne with a bow made out of my story attached to the front.  Now she needs to come drink it with me. 
 
 
Random pictures
 
 
The I drank too much green beer on St. Patty's Day and failed to post this St. Patrick's Day picture.  Isn't it soooooooo green?
 
 
My daughter and her best friend's We Can't Wait Until Easter Cross Cinnamon rolls.  Aren't they creative?
 
 
And in Xanga news, apparently people who have funky birth dates listed on their xangas, unrealistically old and younger than 13, are being shut down left and right.  I know several people this has happened to so make sure your birthdate is in the appropriate range.
 
Also, I have no idea what this new profile thing is.  I did not know it existed until I received a friend invitation and realized I only had one friend.  After which I invited all of you to be my friends, and now I assume you are inviting all your friends to be your friends.  It's a vicious circle.  Needless to say, the memory part is amusing and the first memory I received caused me to snort Dr. Pepper all over my keyboard.  Thanks Owen  (who is now boycotting the whole thing which might be the best idea yet) for the mess and Sarah for making me realize what I loser I am.  Only joking ;) 
 
Hope everyone is having a lovely week.

How does the whole thing work?  I gotta tell you it feels a bit kindergarten-ish ('will you puh-leeze be my friend??').  But the memories thing?  Or the chat room thing?  How do those work, exactly?

Aw, love the two pink lines champagne.

I can't get that song Memories out of my head because of all this, sadly I don't know all the words.

Obviously, I don't use Xanga a lot, b/c I have not noticed the friend thing.  Sounds like MySpace.  The bow made out of your story was an awesome idea!!

How awesome, Tiff!! You kick way more asshats than you've ever given yourself credit for. Congratulations.

They're shutting people down for being old too? Crap. I'm gonna have to change my birthdate again lest the Xangods rain their wrath upon me again.

I'm not surprised.  You deserve it.  I just can't wait until you are nationally syndicated so that I can get your stuff in the Dallas Morning News and our local NPR station too.

I have no idea what "friend" thing you are talking about. Is it a premium feature?

You know, I caught that "Friends" thing on someone's site...it must be only for the special Premium folk, because I have no info about it on my little "decaf" site.

I'm so proud of you, Tiffy! I tried to add the Friends thing you sent me, and it balked at me. I'll try it again later, teehee.

This new profile thingy is just weird...a bit too MySpace for me, I think. I'll see.
I've heard of some of the shut-downs, but most of the ones I heard about were ones turned out to be ones with nude pics. Maybe it was a combination...wonky birthdate making it look like underage people were posting  pics of themselves? Or, maybe it's another weird Xanga virus/worm

Oooh, that must be what somebody else was talking about!  I haven't noticed anything different...is it just for Premium People or something?  Must check around.

Oh, and did I say congrats?  Yay for you!!!

Well, I'll still be your friend, but I deleted all those e-mails. I figured they were Xanga spam because no one had talked about this, and now that I'm getting all the invites still no one is talking about it, and I don't wanna have to ask everyone to be my friend when I'm already subbed to them.

Congrats on the article, Tiff!

I'm lost about this friend thing...what's going on? There's nothing on the front page about it...

Hey Tiff!!  Oh, Congratulations!! I am SO proud of you and for you, girl!!! ((((Hugs))))  That is SOOO great!!! 

I'm really sorry I haven't been able to comment here in a while, but I'm still so sickly and still having to pace myself.  I just wanted to post now while I could though!  Thanks so much for the invite.   I don't know how to work anything there yet, but I clicked on the invite to sign up, and I'm trying to figure things out.

Again, congratulations!!  You totally deserve it!!!!  Love Ya Lots!!
