Cucumbers, Chocobos & Cherry Coke

Summer Accomplishments:
- Defeated Emerald WEAPON - Final Fantasy VII (PS1)
- Defeated Ruby WEAPON - Final Fantasy VII (PS1)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drinking four pints of Cherry Coke apparently has the effect of an all-day hyper streak. :)
Adam and I have spent a day of sugar-intoxicated frovolity, fueled along the way with Flic N Lic lollies and cheap ASDA nachos. :)
Well, I ate the nachos - Adam didn't want any.
Today, I have bested both Emerald and Ruby WEAPON on Final Fantasy VII.
Using a strategy Adam found for me - using a combined Knights Of The Round with a HP-Absorb.
Both of the Weapons took their final blow when I proper wasn't concentrating as well!
Both times I looked away - looked back and they were fading into red clouds.
After defeating both of those bastards, I think I'm more than ready to venture into The Crater and kick Sephiroth and Jenova's arses - but I'm being proper OCD with mastering my materia and stuff. :)
As you get a golden Chocobo for beating Ruby Weapon, I was stuck for names.
Adam suggested I call it Buckle - a shortened version of Chocobuckle, the Chocobo enemy skill.
Works pretty well, so I did. :)

After proper inhaling a 2-inch thick chunk of cucumber, I got MAJOR hiccups.
Proper hilarious though - because I'd either hiccup mid-sentence or at the end of the sentence, and it sounded like I was using them as FULL STOPS! :D
Crossing the line between June and July, fireworks start to pop more frequently at night. M-80's and other large report incindiaries are being set off in the neighborhood. What was once quiet up to the 3rd, at least, now becomes a nightly quest to shatter the silence until the 4th.
July: Named for Julius Caesar, converted into a month after a suggestion from Mark Antony. Originally pronounced like 'Julie'.
For most of the month, the Western Astrological sign of Cancer the Crab rules until July 23rd. Can't think of a worse sign to be born under. With others, you can at least say "I'm a Pisces" or "I'm a Taurus", which nowadays might get you the response of, "You're a car??", but to say that "I'm a Cancer"...
Yeah, I know you can say "I'm a Cancerian", which is better, but not many people have heard of the word 'Cancerian'. Makes you sound like 'Libertarian'. Where Cancerians make up for it, however, is that the symbol for Cancer looks like '69' turned on its side. Score.
July's birthstone is the ruby.
Cancer is a water sign.
Just like the ebb and flow of the Moon that rules Cancer, life ebbs and flows. The pull of others can shift one off balance, or align them just right, or pull them into someone else's life. Even if the source can't be seen, its effects are still felt.
Attraction and repulsion are words that scientists and engineers use to describe unseen forces at work in the magnetic, gravitational, electrical, and atomic fields of study. The same words are used in relationships, with much the same meanings, although the outcomes are less well defined and predicted.
Just like as the Moon swings around to the other side of the Earth, or it takes up a place in Earth's shadow so we can't see it, its presence is still felt by the tides, animals, and the bubble of Earth's magnetic field. Just like people who have come into our lives, and are no longer there, still have an impact to this day because the memories of them persist like so much unseen gravitational pull. Their actions affect how we act, and react. Their inspiration, or cataclysmically painful connection gives us a new path to walk down, either towards a positive source, or running away from it, screaming.
There's nothing we can do. We're programmed to react, and to learn from the outside world.
To adapt.
To survive.
In 9 days, new programming will take effect.
Tides will shift - subtly for most, if not all.
A Cancer will be removed, but there will be no fireworks to celebrate.
i know its been awhile, but...ive been going through a really tough time..
im not sure if you knew or not but my best friend Rupert died last month and im taking it really hard.
i am taking a week off at the magazine and going to Cabo, going to let go of some stress and just relax in the sun.
i'm going alone, Ruby is perplexed why but...she needs to understand i need to do this by myself...
ill post when i get back,
all yours

My ruby slippers came in the mail today!
I've been gathering various pieces of my Halloween costume for a month now. I'm going to be Dorothy.
Everyone says that I'm going about this way too early, but I can't help it, I love Halloween. Ask my dentist why.
Hopefully this year will be a lot better than last year's Pirate fiasco. As it turns out, being a "pirate-maiden" is not as fun as it sounds. Also, trekking for hours through a neighborhood where the old man on the corner's boiled peanuts in styrofoam cups are the hit of the night while your fake hoop earrings keep falling out and your eyesight is severely impaired by an eyepatch--not so wonderful.
This year, I'm thinking I'll skip trick-or-treating (though I love it dearly) and spend Halloween at work, passing out candy to the kids. Wow, I know, sounds exciting, huh? But we have a costume contest and everything so it'll be fun to see everyone dressed up. PLUS, if I sit outside the store giving out candy, I won't have to work! Sounds like a plan.
Besides, last year I got some really weird looks. Apparently, 19 is a little old to be trick-or-treating. Who knew?
After getting out of bed around 10 am this morning. I got cleaned up and dressed. Then went over to the Walden super flea. After looking around for a little bit there, I ended up purchasing a carved skull. It's about as big as golf ball and made out of a piece of solid hematite. Cool! It's currently sitting on my night stand next to my bed with other such skulls that I have. There's a total of 10 on the stand right now.
I left there and returned home. Where I was asked by my mother to take her to eastern hills mall. My father's watch stopped and it needed a new battery. I took her to the mall, and we went to the Dakota watch company, that little watch shop in the middle of the mall, where after about 15 mins or so. They replaced the watch battery, water tested it, and we left there.
Upon returning home. I returned to my room, where I turned on today's NASCAR sprint cup race. The life lock 400 and Michigan international speedway. There's where it happened, today after 76 races, Dale Earnhardt Jr returned to victory lane, driving the mountain dew / amp energy number eighty eight to victory lane! This is his first points paying win with his new Hendrick Motorsports team and end a drought of 2 years without a win.
Congratulations to the National guard , amp energy , Hendrick Motorsports, and most of all ... Dale Jr! I hope this is the first of many victory's to come this season.
During the race, I also ate my dinner, which was steak and a baked potato. Of course both are bet with sour cream. Yum.
After the race was over. I turned on my PS2 and played some command & conqur. Then, and what I am watching right now. Is the father's day marothon on spike tv of csi. One of my all time favor shows.
Other things done with watching TV include, cleaning my jewelry. My unfinished ruby pendant is clean as is my stainless necklace. Fun? I love cleaning my jewelry. lmao
So, what else is on my mind? I return to work tomorrow morning, and let's not even go with how much of a joke and insult working there really has become to me. I rather be going to the dentist, and you all know how much fun that place is.
I just hope tomorrow is a nice calm and relaxed day. With nothing out of the ordinary going on, and that it goes by quick.
