Can you believe one woman is this prolific a fantasy spinner that we’re now at 80 chapters? We’ve now got more chapters than she has pseudonyms, that I know of. Of course, she’s been around, online, lying and stealing, for a long time. I have lots more material, and I foresee this getting to 100 chapters by the time we’re finished. So, still sticking with me in the longest troll tale every told? Alrighty then, how about we meander back through her now hidden blog some more?

People Who Make My Butt Tired…and Other Things Too
Well,we all go through moments where there are people that totally make our butts tired; with that, I have a couple of issues to clear out for starters:

*gets on soapbox*

For one, they were supposed to come and paint the apartment yesterday. So I have the cats taken to another place, am out of my house for nearly eight hours, it’s 82 degrees out and hot as hell. I come home a little before five and to find…..THE PLACE WASN’T PAINTED AT ALL…NO phone message about what happened, nothing.

So I call the management office and they caught the devil from me, to say the least–but in a polite, assertive way.

The new manager called back this morning and said they were told the guys knocked on the door and I’d told them to come back later. I responded how could I have done that when I had left the premises with my cats an HOUR before they were supposedly there…and WHY would I report that they were no-shows if that were the case? The instruction sheet I had received specifically stated I had to be out during painting—and I’d kept my end of the bargain.

Anyway, after a (possibly uncomfortable) pause, she then told me that could have them here tomorrow, if that was OK with me. I said that was fine, but I needed the empty unit next to me open so I could put the cats there out of the way since I had no place for them the rest of the week. I added that I went through the time (that I don’t have much of to begin with right now) and trouble to make arrangements for these people to be here yesterday, I pay my rent in full and on time for the past six years, caused no trouble those past six years, and I do not appreciate–nor will tolerate– being jerked around.

AND… if they didn’t show up a second time, there was going to be hell to pay; I wouldn’t be so nice about it next time.

I have a feeling the job will be done tomorrow. *wink*

Another thing that annoyed the crap out of me is something that happened on a friend of mine’s board recently–people posting pics on their own websites, and when the pictures do appear on other forums and the like WITH CREDIT TO THE ORIGINAL SITE AND SAID PHOTO(S) NOT ALTERED IN ANY WAY…the people who originally posted the stuff on their own site the pic was credited to got uppity and huffy and posted on the boards and/or PM’s (not sure) with an attitude about it. Good lord, lighten up; it’s only a photo/sig banner/whatever. AND YOU/YOUR SITE IS GETTING CREDIT BESIDES!!!! What a bunch of egomanical, self-absorbed idiots!

IMO, if you post stuff on the Net, as long as you are getting credit, it’s fair game….not to mention bringing traffic to YOUR site. If those people are obsessive about things like that, they seriously need a life outside of the wrestling/celebrity world; they’re not as important as they think they are. Believe me, I’ve worked with and for enough celebs/socialites in the past to know.

*gets off soapbox*

I needed to get those out of my system; it just rubbed me the wrong way. No offense to anyone intended.

Now, on to something a little more pleasant!

Are you ready? Are you sure? *grins with delight*

Well, all right, here it goes:

I’ve actually applied for another pageant–seriously! I haven’t competed in any in the last couple of years and decided to give it one more shot before I had my surgery (whenever that may be). Come Sunday morning, yours truly was notified that…well, you all can read it for yourselves:

Pageants! She loved to enter those so much, the kind where you send in $ and automatically get given a tiara and sash

I really really love her soapbox rantings. Especially rantings about not giving proper credit for material sourced. From a woman who has convictions for fraud, and has been busted for plagiarism many times over? Priceless
