i was working on my english homework tonight (yes last minute) and while reading a passage to paraphrase (boring), i came across a word that didn’t seem right. i actually thought it was a typo but i was incorrect……

in·cul·cate

1. to implant by repeated statement or admonition; teach persistently and earnestly (usually fol. by upon or in): to inculcate virtue in the young.
2. to cause or influence (someone) to accept an idea or feeling (usually fol. by with): Socrates inculcated his pupils with the love of truth.

i attempted in inculcate manners into my ferrets but they laughed in my general directions (and bit my foot).

lol

trent reznor is a taurus

and joins other famous taurus’ like myself and bjb…. woohoo

even deeper by nine inch nails (fav and meaningful nin song at the moment)

i woke up today
to find myself in the other place
with a trail of my footprints
from where i ran away
it seems everything i’ve heard
just might be true
and you know me
(well you think you do)
sometimes, i have everything-
yet i wish i felt something

do you know how far this has gone?
just how damaged have i become?
when i think i can overcome
it runs even deeper

and in a dream i’m a different me
with a perfect you
we fit perfectly
and for once in my life i feel complete-
and i still want to ruin it
afraid to look
as clear as day
this plan has long been underway

i hear them call
i cannot stay
the voice inviting me away

do you know how far this has gone?
just how damaged have i become?
when i think i can overcome
it runs even deeper
everything that matters is gone
all the hands of hope have withdrawn
could you try to help me hang on?
it runs…

i’m straight
i won’t crack
on my way
and i can’t turn back
i’m okay
i’m on track
on my way
and i can’t turn back
i stayed
on this track
gone too far
and i can’t come back
i stayed
on this track
lost my way
can’t come back

ac baby

not air conditioning but a trip to atlantic city with my peeps. woohoo! the bus ride can be a little trying on the butt but if you can keep it from going to sleep, avoid a leg cramp and bring a good book, you’ll be there in no time. i spent a fair amount of time in front of my favorite slot machine, the hex breaker penny machine. yes i know its probably sad that i have a favorite slot machine but its fun, has entertaining bonus games, i get lots of credits for my money and i usually come out ahead when i play it. (always a bonus when in atlantic city) i did manage to come back with more money then i went with. i didn’t hit any jackpots but i didn’t come back with an empty purse either. the ride back was equally entertaining even if i did wonder several times what yoda could be putting in my hood. :-)

freakin awesome

so its a sunday and i’ve been up for quite a while….which i know is scary but i have homework to get done and little time to do it… plus after partaking of my usual ‘easter traditions’ i might not be in the right mindset to actually concentrate on anything. now i know you are wonder what will i be doing? well, i’m bringing the beer and vodka. my dad is making the bloody mary’s. (enough said) there will also be the customary coloring of hard boiled eggs, eating of too much food and i’m sure my mother, brother and sister in law will regale us with tales that will make my brain hurt.

on a totally different note:
the new nin album is not out until apirl 17th BUT as i was looking at the nin site this morning i found you can listen to the entire album now for free!!!!

to quote a friend  ‘w00t!’

yesterday afternoon i decided after an irritating day that i needed a pto friday. luckily for me, my boss agreed

let me assure you, i did accomplish lots today.  5 loads of laundry, dishes, reading for school, evil accounting homework, washed dishes (well i put then in the machine and hit start anyway).

i had thoughts of digging my car out of the glacier that formed around it tuesday, but the glacier is still solid as rock and the temp will be around or below freezing for a while.  So this evening i have to bribe someone to take me to home depot so i can buy a metal shovel or pick. then i’ll get to go outside in the dark coldness and try to free my poor car.

wish me luck

the good, the bad and the furry

first the good: Yoda gave me an awesome gift. a book autographed by sully from GODSMACK. yes he actually touched the book and i have it. mmmm book. currently the book is located under my pillow…. no not for that! to hide if from pepi, the book stealing ferret. (i know your mind is in the gutter, right next to mine)

now the bad: had a conference call at work and someone on it was more annoying than usual. they wouldn’t shut up and for some reason think i actually work for them. which i totally don’t. it took all my mental effort to mute the phone when i belched loudly while she was babbling endlessly….. even though it really would have been funny

and now the furry: a few weeks ago, when the wind chill wasn’t -5 degrees, i opened the bedroom window for boom, aka mr. sniffy. it seemed like a good idea and he enjoyed all the new and different smells he could sample. unfortunately its 19 degrees at the moment and he is insisting that the window should be opening. no matter how often i say no boom, here have a toy/snack instead, he keeps coming back and gives you that look. (if you have ever seen his look you know what i mean). now i have three determined ferrets trying to climb the pillow/curtain/barricade. one distracts you while two try to run my blockade

well time to clean poo and see what trouble the giggle wiggle has gotten into now :-)

been on ebay…..

Blog Category: w00t! — Blogged by: violet on January 28, 2007 at 8:16 pm

and got myself something new…. well a couple things

just when you thought i had run out of room for hk stuff or that i had everything…..i found a new purple bedding set… heehee

the set has a comforter, flat sheet, fitted sheet, pillow case, pillow sham and they all match. they arrived on friday and unimportant laundry (like clothes) were put on hold to wash and dry the new arrivals. of course i am tucked in them as i type this.
also got a new hk coffee mug, hk lanyard for my work badge and a snow hat, complete with pompon, for the furries to wear (unwillingly) and have cute pictures taken in.

and no, you can’t have too much hk
