Pushing to the Limits

Last night before running downstairs to watch Ruby, I thought that I would try an experiment.  I really wasn’t sure if it would work or not.  I started the patcher for City of Heroes/Villains.  I let the patcher run all night.  I figured what would it hurt.  So I patched a game and wouldn’t be able to play it.

Well….. I am able to log in and play.  I have to have the graphic options set down to minimum and I am laggy in the cities, but I can at least play.  So this morning I was running around doing missions on my mastermind.  I haven’t played that toon in ages.  It was a lot of fun.  I was shocked that there wasn’t a bigger patch then there was.  Think about it, this computer has been in the closet for almost 2 years now.  That is a long time in the realm of MMOs.  Heck, EQ2 has had 1 expansion and another is about to be released any day now since this computer was last online. 

Anyway, Ruby was awesome last night.  I really admire her for her strength and courage.  It really takes a lot of guts to go on TV and go through what she is going through.  I really think that she needs to tell Denny off though.  Seriously, the man is so shallow.  He reminds me of that movie Shallow Hal.   Hmm… Maybe he needs to be tortured by watching that movie over and over.  Then he might get into his thick skull that she is beautiful outside too.  Just because she isn’t anorexic like a model, doesn’t mean she isn’t beautiful. 

Sometimes I wonder what some of the old world masters would think of what we consider beauty today.  Think about it.  Look at all the old world painters (i.e. Titian).  They mainly painted women who were chubby.  The reason for that is because in the old days, if you were overweight that meant that you were rich and healthy.  Only rich people could afford to eat enough to become overweight.  Now only rich people can afford to eat the healthy foods since it is so expensive to shop at stores like Whole Foods.  Society has really taken a wrong turn.

Expanding The Mind

Since my good computer is on the fritz, I have been spending alot of time reading. 

I just finished reading “Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder” by Joanne Fluke.  This is the 2nd Hannah Swenson murder book that I have read.  It is the 1st in the series though. 

Hannah runs a bakery/coffee shop in a small town in Minnesota.  Not only is the story well written and engrossing, but the book is peppered with wonderful recipes and baking tips. 

In fact, I photocopied a few of the recipes that I really wanted to try out before passing the book along to my sister. 

I just started reading another book called “Candy Cane Murder”.  This one actually has 3 short stories by 3 different authors.  The reason I picked up this book was because there is a short Hannah Swenson story in there.  Plus in addition to the usual cookie recipes, there are recipes for quiche. 

The second author I hadn’t read before.  So I wasn’t sure what I was in for.  I am halfway through her story and it is really boring me to tears.  The story line seems ok.  However, it feels almost like she came up with it at the last minute.  Plus some of the cliches that she uses are just too much. 

The third author, I have read before.  In fact, I had read a whole book by her and hated it.  I might just go ahead and read it to see if she does better with a short story.  I had previously read “Bake Sale Murder” and the storyline seemed to drag on.  The majority of the story she kept going on and on about he hazing the cheerleaders and newer football players were being forced to undergo.  Now don’t get me wrong it was actually pretty interesting.  However, that whole story line is wrapped up in only 1 or 2 lines.  There was no explanation of how or why.  It was just so and so doesn’t approve of it and it will no longer happen.  Umm… Ok….  That was a complete fumble on her part.  I like to have loose ends tied up a little more neatly then that.  It felt almost like she didn’t have enough to fill up the pages with just the murder mystery, so she added this other story line in and didn’t know how to end it.   I really have a feeling that the short story will be alot easier for her to handle.

 Well, only 15 minutes until Ruby comes on.  So I need to get downstairs, grab a huge glass of pomagranete juice and get ready.  I know that this week will be just as good as last week.  I don’t think that I will watch it several times though.  Then again, who knows.  I just might.

Out In The Cold

Well, my video card died yesterday morning and unfortunately took something out with it.  I just didn’t have the time or energy to be rooting around in the computer to figure it out. 

So I dug out of the closet my old computer.  It hasn’t been hooked up since April 07.  I prayed that it worked as I hooked it back up.  So here I am back on the old computer. 

I need to get in touch with IBuyPower to find out about the other computer.  I found an old email showing that I had purchased the 3 year warranty on it.  So that is good.  I have a feeling that I will have to send it back in to get fixed though.  I was hoping that just dropping a new video card in would fix it.  But it won’t. 

At least I have a back up until I figure out what is going on.  I would hate to lose the data on the other computer.  I have 2 hard drives each with about 100 gigs worth of info.   Granted, most of it is games.  My mmos take up huge expanses of space due to all the patches and expansions. 

I sincerely doubt that I would be able to play many MMOs on this computer.  I was already lagging in most games over a year ago.  I would hate to see how it is now.  At least I still have Guild Wars.  I found out one time that I could still play Guild Wars even on dial up.  So I should have no problem playing it still on this computer.

Losing sight

Well, my video card is on the way out.  It keeps giving me issues.  I can at least get on the computer for right now.  I can’t play any of my games.  This totally sucks!! 

I don’t have the money to get a new video card right now.  I am not sure what I am going to do.  I will at least try to get on the computer until it completely goes.  Its better then nothing. 

After it completely goes, I guess I will catch up on reading.

In The Spotlight

Wow!  They changed out the light bulbs in the office and it is now way to bright in there.  In fact, they had even changed out some of the light fixtures.  Now the lights they use put out much more light. 

I ended up leaving there tonight with a massive headache.  The light was bothering my eyes.

Well, today I started out really great.  I exercised this morning.  I had a pomegranate for breakfast.  I love eating those things.  They are a bitch to prepare, but once its ready…. OMG!  The taste is incredible.

For lunch, I had one of those Healthy Choice Steamers or whatever they are called.  This was the salmon dill one.  It has salmon, pasta, and broccoli with a dill sauce.  It was yummy. 

I did pretty bad at dinner though.  My brother-in-law made ribs tonight with pasta.  I only ate the ribs.  I didn’t eat any of the pasta.  And I didn’t eat a ton of ribs either.  They had left a half a rack there for me and I didn’t even eat all of that. 

Well, I am getting sleepy.  I need to go downstairs to take my nightly medicine.  I have to sit up for half an hour after I take it.  That kinda sucks.

Yes We Can

Last night, I watched the premier of a TV show called Ruby.  Its on the Style Network.  If you haven’t heard of the show, let me tell you that it is truly inspirational. 

Its not just another reality TV show.  It is the journey of one woman to gain her life back.  At the beginning of taping Ruby weighed in at nearly 500 pounds.  Her doctor basically told her that if she didn’t do something now, there may not be a future.  I know that feeling.  I have heard those words before.

Each episode takes you through the struggles and triumphs as she attempts to overcome her weight. 

I have to say that after watching last night, I was truly inspired to start working on losing weight again.  I had become extremely discouraged when I started having the seizures.  I felt like I would take 1 step forward and 10 steps back.  Every time I would overcome one hurdle, another was thrown in my way.

I can’t keep thinking like that!  To take a wonderful line from Barack Obama, YES WE CAN!  That is going to be my new motto.  Every time I sit back and give up, I am going to remember YES WE CAN!  Every time I stop believing in myself, I will think of Ruby and how she isn’t stopping.  I will think of Barack Obama not stopping until he was president. 

I can do this.  I may not be getting any support whatsoever from my family, but I can do this. 

So this morning, I dusted off the Wii Fit and got to working out.  I was extremely exhausted but it really felt good to get up and move about.  I had to start back from the beginning.  The dang thing told me that I hadn’t worked out in 143 days.  Wow!  I really gave up.

I also ordered a book that I had been wanting.  My sister had promised to buy it for me for my birthday.  Well that came and gone.  Her husband is telling me that I should just print pages out off the internet. 

The book that I was wanting keeps track of any signs and symptoms that you are having.  Because besides overcoming my weight, I have to overcome several illnesses.  My seizures are out of control again.  This book allows me to track what’s going on in my body.

If you have illnesses that you are trying to get stabilized, then I highly suggest this book.  There are places to keep track of your medicines, your food, your symptoms, etc.  It really is a great book.

I am taking back my life with the words YES WE CAN!

can’t take them anywhere

So my sister and her husband finally took me out to dinner for my birthday.  I got to choose the restaurant.

We went to this really cool place called Ra Sushi.   I should have known it was going to be a disaster. 

First my sister complained about it being too loud in there.  They had some really awesome music playing.  I was enjoying it immensely.

Then her husband started in on the waitress about how my sister is allergic to shellfish and she had better tell my sister if there was anything that she was ordering that had it in it.

We got to the restaurant around 7pm.  Shortly after we got there, they lowered the lighting.  So then my sister started bitching about how she couldn’t see.  And how did they expect anyone to see anything with the lighting so dim.  Personally, it wasn’t that bad. 

She ordered her steak medium well.  It came back a little pink.  She threw a complete fit.  I keep telling her she needs to stop ordering steak when we go out since it never comes back the way she likes it.  Either that or she needs to stop saying medium or medium well.  She just needs to tell them that she likes it well done.  That is truly the way she likes it anyway.  Bleh.. It doesn’t have any flavor that way.

My sister insisted on talking to the manager.  Geez… Just get over it.  Its not like she has ever been in a restaurant and gotten the steak cooked the way she likes it.  She always complains. 

I really felt bad for our waitress.  She was really nice.  The first thing I noticed about her was the really pretty pent necklace she had on.  I wanted to say something to her, but I knew that they would embarrass me.  So even though I really wanted to say Blessed Be or Merry Meet to her, I didn’t.

what a weekend

Well, normally I get the house to myself all weekend.  I love it.  I can sleep as much as I want.  I can eat whatever I want.  I can play computer games as much as I want.  I can play my music as loud as I want.

Today, both my sister and her husband are off of work.  We also have this guy remodeling the bathroom.  So its noisy in here.  They are bugging me every few minutes.  It totally sucks. 

Weekends are my chilling time.  I can just kick back and relax.  I love my alone time. 

They freaked out when I took a 3 hour nap earlier today.  That was actually short for me.  On Saturdays, I usually sleep much more then that. 

At least, they made up for it by ordering pizza for dinner.  That is my favorite food.

the spooks come out at night

Well, tonight Mama Fish told me that the cleaning crew at work feels that there are ghosts haunting the center.  I totally believe in ghosts, but I have not felt any presence there at all.  I can usually at least sense something.  I really don’t feel that there is anything.  They say that they will clean the water fountain and then walk by awhile later and it will be wet again.  Its probably just leaky. 

Oh yea!  Speaking of spooks, I figured out what was causing the light to come on in my bedroom.  I always felt that there must be a rational explanation.  I have a remote control for my bedroom light.  There is one for the living room as well.  I found out that they are both on the same frequency.   If you stand at a certain spot in the living room, it will actually work my light.
