1.Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering, "Shut up, dammit, all of you just shut up!"
2.Whistle the first seven notes of "It's a Small World", incessantly.
3.Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside ask,"Got enough air in there?"
4. Offer name tags to everyone getting on the elevator. Wear yours upside-down.
5. Stand silent and motionless in the corner, facing the wall without getting off.
6. When arriving at your floor, grunt and strain to yank the doors open, then act embarrassed when they open by themselves.
7. Greet everyone getting on the elevator with a worm handshake and ask them to call you Admiral.
8. On the highest floor, hold the door open, and demand that it stay open until you hear the penny you dropped down the shaft go "plink" at the bottom.
9. Stare grinning at another passenger for a while, and then announce,"I've got new socks on!".
10. When at least 8 people have boarded, moan from the back,"Oh, no not now! Damn motion sickness!".
11. Meow occasionally.
12. Holler "Chutes away!" whenever the elevator descends.
13. Walk on with a cooler that says "human head" on the side.
14. Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce "You're on of THEM!" and move to the far corner of the elevator.
15. Wear a puppet on your hand and talk to the other passengers "through" it.
16. When the elevator is silent, look around and ask "is that your beeper?"

21. Announce in a demonic voice "I must find a more suitable host body."
22. Wear "X-Ray Specs" and leer suggestively at other passengers.
I was simply not strong enough to resist posting this. I started laughing my ass off going through them, and if you've ever experienced the looks people give you when you start giggling maniacally at a screen, you know how embarrassing that can be. Thus, I thought you'd like a giggle and a snort too :)
BTW, I got this list from Skylight.

Curse this Survivor fetish!!
I gotta hurry, cos of course Survivor's on in about 9 minutes and some amount of seconds. Altho, I'm not sure when I'm going to go see my Nanny tonight.. damn my addiction to Must See TV!!
I'm actually kinda looking forward to this whole sculpturing thing in Art now.. prolly partly cos I'm currently full of ideas. If I've ever had a rule in Art, its that I can't do what every one else is doing. EVER. No matter how much I want to. Last year, everyone sculpted Magic Mushrooms, so I sculpted a turtle. The year before that every one made cups out of coconut shells, I made a coconut cave. This year, everyone made drawings of hands, I made a drawing of a hand touching alien fingers. (Which reminds me; I still have to finish that one -- and I guess it really doesn't count as me being creative as much as it was really a way for me to cover up the fact that the alien digits were really the result of me drawing a majorly screwed up human hand.) But s'ok.
But I gotta go. BTW, does anyone else hate Jerri as much as I do.. ?

I'm horribly irresponsible...
Ack!! Sorry all you people using 800 x 600!! Me being the total weiner that I am, only just realized that the pop ups are extremely hard to see on 800 x 600 resolution. I'll try and fix this problem as soon as I can, k??
And YAY! I got out early today!!

Gum...
Delving deeper into the mystery of the horrible broken images; I've discovered that it does seem to be Geocities originated. While perusing Sarah's guestbook for new entries, as I frequently do, because I'm obviously her designing slave, I noticed that the cute little flower I'd placed in the right hand bottom corner of her entry box was a ...
BROKEN IMAGE!!
DO DO DO!
[said creepily and heavily like some melodramatic soap opera]
Will this be solved.. ? I just don't know. How many of you want to guess that I was sent some email from Geocities forewarning me of this pita-changing event...? But probably deleted it out of ignorance and annoyance.. ?
Alas, I should be taken out into the town square and painfully flogged. On a less flogging topic, I actually went for my second day of peer helping at Agnew Johnson Elementary School. I helped a little girl with her Grade 6 math. It was horrible. And terrible. And horrendously horrid. It was the equivalent of me explaining:
"Hi. I'm a Grade 12, seventeen year old student currently involved in a torturous math course that involves plenty of scary equations and trials of masochistic trig. But I'm sorry. I can't divide things with decimals. Its much too hard."
Poor girl. She never had a chance.
I'm also running frighteningly low on gum. I think I've got about one more pack left. Now, I've never really mentioned this before, but I'm a gum fanatic. I am Violet in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. I chew it in disgusting wads of spearmint or cinnamon. And I go through about 2 packs a day. I guess what would make it worse, was if I was told by doctors that I should no longer chew gum.
And I was. Ohhhh yes.. But really.. could I take the opinion of a doctor seriously..? Especially if said doctor was named Dr. Lubberdink.. ? I didn't think so. Thus, the chewing continues.. or at least until I run out, which will be soon, so ACK!
I have still have piles of bio homework left to do, and we're starting sculpturing in Art: MY MOST HATED OF ALL MEDIUMS.
Ah well. :)

Stupid Geocities..
Ok, I think I've figured out this broken image problem. Most of the images that aren't working seem to be pictures I've used from my account on Geocities.. pictures I'm linking too.. So, I'm going to upload them into my virtue.nu account, and hope these damn images work, k.. ?
Oh yes. Tanya you also get a car. :)

Stupid cold that won't go away.. ARGH! ...
Am I the only one who is having trouble loading graphics on this page.. ? Ack.. it's driving me crazy. If my site for some reason or another is doing this to you also, I've found the best thing to do is to go to another page, then click "back". [Of course, this page should load in the same window ;p] By then all the images should've loaded.
I'm basically on my way to the hospital -- first I hafta make supper tho, so ugh.. Guess what?? Its something out of a can!! yay!! I wanna pick up some flowers or some adorable little plant before I head up to the sixth floor tho.. the room is almost not depressing. {uhm.. yip..pee..}
Hey, and don't think I don't expect you to sign my new and improved gbook! Just because "OZ" no longer exists, does not mean I can no longer hunt you down!!
Because I both can and will. ;p
And see?? Marsden's nice. He signed. Therefore, Marsden will get a new car in the mail three days hence. It may be 2 inches tall, but I'm sure he'll understand.

What Mr. Loney put on my peer helping teacher evaluation form:
"She is queenly in all things. Bow down to her often as a sign of respect."

And, meanwhile, away from the fourth planet Nebulon. . .
So do you like it? Are you thrilled? I think I love this new design. And besides the rather squiffy gradient [that's used on a million other pages but I simply couldn't resist] I have this delightful Rainbow Brite Sprite!! Yay!! Now, I'm sure you don't know it, as I'm a person who obviously ferociously guards her privacy, but I have this nearly obsessive love for Rainbow Brite. Even tho' looking back its sorta screwed, there ain't nothing like reminiscing about Starlight and Colour Crystals. When my little cuz Beth visited me a few weeks ago I rented a ton of my most favourite childhood movies. So, basically, that included, She-ra: Princess of Power, the Last Unicorn, The Muppet Babies and Rainbow Brite. Of course, she didn't know who the hell any of the people were supposed to be, and might've wondered at the excessive amount of man-tights on display, but, ah well.
Anyway, update on my Nanny: We took her to the hospital today, thus I missed the afternoon of school. Around 3:00 I went to go visit her for awhile -- she looks really really gaunt.. the nurses kept assuming that she'd lived on her own for all this time or something. So, I sat with her for about three hours while my parents went for supper. She's going to stay overnight, and she's actually looking a lot better. They rehydrated her, and I think the nurse might be wrong about her being in end stages, cos she still remembers me. They moved her up to the sixth floor, where she's in an ultra comfy bed, and has a tiny mini-tv, which only shows The Learning Channel, but s'ok.
But [big yawn] I'm exhausted, so I'm gonna head to bed [meaning i'll prolly be in bed by about 1:00 am]..
