WOOT! AND! Edgir Allan and Zimmersan are coming with me! I am going to take pretty much ALL of my stuff with me. Just because I don't trust leaving it here at my house.

Also, XD I think it's so funny when I can intimidate another person. It is called intimidation when another manager is going to quit because you are doing your job correctly, isn't it? lol I had my first manager meeting at the store I've been at for the past month. This manager was being more or less friendly to my face while telling everyone else that she doesn't like me. Even at the manager meeting, she said she didn't like me. She said because she can'twork with me that she is going to find another job and quit Wendy's. The past couple o checks have been nice. With 30 hours of over time I bring home a little over 900 dollars(That's for two weeks, though..)! ^.^

Blood + is a pretty cool series so far. The animation reminds me of an artist on deviantART. And the credits of another.

I'm tired and I have to leave for work in about 6.5 hours. I should prolly go ta sleep now. Good night all!

Let's start off with the not-so-good stuff, shall we? My Mom has been in the hospital for a month now due to her really bad migraines which were causing stroke-like symptoms. She just got transported toa rehab section of another hospital Sunday. It's further away and opposite the way I am working.. I spent the night with her a couple of times while she was at the hospital in our city, but this hospital will only let me do that if it's a constant thing and only if they see it as theropy, like they did when I stayed with my grandfather in his room for a littlw over a week. She has gotten better,but they stillaren't sure what's wrong with her. I visited her today with Steven. ^^ Lotsa huggles, yay!

Okay! Next topic, cause I can't get stuck on one topic for too long this time. (lol. LAUGH! That was funny!) I tookmy ServSafe exam for Management. I scored a 92%, too bad I didn't score 100%, so that I could say HA! to my managers. Ah well, whadya expect when you finish a 90 question test in 15-20 minutes. They take away 10 random questions from the exam, but I don't know which questions they took out, and I don't know how many number wise that I missed total. Not yet anyways. With this certificate, I can now start my management training! I just have to waitfor my management book from Wendy's. Also, I am having to work at a different store in Kissimmee, known only as Black Lake. I get 3 days off AND 40 hours! Woot! x_X I work at my store 2 days and at Black Lake 2 days. I have to train other crew at that store. Other people from my district are having to do the same thing though, so! I will do my best!

I have another baby. Her name is Zimmersan, or Zim for short. So now I have Zim and Gir (Grr). ^^ She has thumbs and mostly lives at Steven's for now. I have visitation til Friday though, so needless to say, I am happy. She sucks on people's necks and my chin.. She really gets along with Edgir. Which also makes me happy. It's so funny comparing their sizes. When I first brought Zim home, Edgir got really jealous. He kept hissing and poking at her. And then I came home from work to hear about him bathing her. ^^ So adorable they are. The other night, Zim slept on my collar bone (Just like Edgir did when he was this young) and Edgir slept on my legs. I luff my babies! And yes, I shall be the crazy cat lady when I get older. lol I can't wait! 8) Zim is doing a lot better in car rides now. When we went to Petco(the three of us) and PetSuperMarket, everyone thought it was unheard of for a cat to be on a leash(and neat) and that Edgir was Zim's mommy. Euh... No! Edgir is a neutered male, however, since he still has his little nut thingy, he is obviously a boy! Another thing, although they are both cats, they share little similar traits or characteristics, aside the normal cat stuff. Still trying to litter train Zim, Edgir isn't as helpful with that as Saio was with him.. -.- She pooped in my car!(she=Zim) She follows me all around the house and is really playful. Okay, I need to stop before I get carried away.

My social life still sucks, and because of various stressers, Steve and I are on a break. We both need some time to grow independently. I yearn for my own independence. He still calls me everyday. 9.9; Whenever I try to call my friends, they aren't there.. Having to focus so much on this promotion deal, is really grating my nerves, especially when my manager holds it over my head.. There are some issues still lingering, but I have high hopes that they will be resolved. I'm trying SO hard to be more mature and professional, but it's not something that comes naturally to me. I want to like my job, and I want to help others like their job. Ah well, all in due time I guess.

I opened a checking account. 0.0 I gots checks and a debit card. Woot! Next up! Direct deposit, wee! I have a whole $41.09 in my account. I'm so excited! I'm building credit! I do so love legos. Allrightly then, I need to go to bed, since I have a day off today, I want to enjoy at least half of it with Koji. ^^ Good Morning! Good Afternoon! And Good Night!

If you're my friend, PLEASE give me an update on yourself, via comment to this journal! Thankies! I luff y'alls!

]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12892048/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12892048/ Tue, 08 May 2007 19:06:25 PDT < Hopefully, it'll be similar to my Bob Evan's interview. Then, I should have no problems.

I've had a lot of stuff and yet nothing going on lately. Just stuff that is getting to me that shouldn't be getting to me. And I hurt my hand at work.. so I haven't been able to draw.. at least not with my right hand. My left hand still sucks though, so... yeah, they won't be appearing on devART. My Graduation is on Thursday. Tomorrow, I have the interviews for my promotion, my doctor's appointment for theropy for my thumb, and then work from six o'clock till two in the morning.

I got to actually spend some time with one of my friend's earlier today. Edgrr was with me! ^^ He was the only person I was able to talk to or even get a hold of. Between talking we played billiards and such. ^^ That was fun, we both suck by the way. =3

I noticed something.. my 'friends' don't typically talk to me or listen to me when it's needed.. There's only one that trys to contact me when that one has a problem or something and they need to talk to someone about it. I feel so useless, because I do have friends, I really do. I generally get along with random people. I can live without music, and probably tv, too. I would love not to have my cell phone, but I need that for my job.. lol Even right now.. this journal will get one view.. tops. No comment. No nothing. I'm not trying to be whiney. I've been feeling depressed and yesterday and this morning, I cried a total of 4 times, once to myself and 3 other different people at different times. People who actually know me from day to day basis'.. know that I don't normally cry like that. It's amazing how much just talking about something helps. Most of the time, when I talk or write about something, it's like.. I dunno, it just flies out of my mind. After my National Serv Safe Test, I will be drawing every chance I get and anything and everything I draw or sketch will be on devART. So I guess at least 2 of y'all might be interested to know that. I'm being whiney now, so ha! I miss so many of my departed and lost loved ones.. <3 <3 <3 I am making a list for dedications to my loved ones, look for the one I dedicate to you.

-People who borrow things without the owner's permission.
+Hello? That's the same as temporarily stealing! It's just as not cool as the above peeve... Is it so hard to ask the owner, and accept it if they say no? Especially if it is something you do not need to survive.(in example: food, water, shelter, etc..)
-People who think just because they asked once, it means that the answer will always be the same.
+Let me put it this way.. 'Hey can I borrow your laptop today?'
"Sure, I don't mind if you use my laptop for checking your email"
..next day.. It is NOT okay to borrow the laptop without asking again!
-People who look at porn on another person's computer.
+WTF!? Why would anyone do something like that? You can do that crap on your own computer ALL you want, but keep it off of others computers. You can live without looking at that stuff. Get a girlfriend or boyfriend depending on your sexual attraction to others.. If not, then live with your own freaking imagination!
-People who after getting found out about above (porn) get angry at the owner of the computer.
+The only person that should be angry in this sort of situation is the owner of the computer! If you're going to be looking at that crap, then at least erase your history of doing so in the web browser and on the winamp player! If you wanted to fry your computer, that's your business, but don't bring down the other computers with it!
-People who lie to their 'friends'
+Tell the freaking truth! No sugar coating or sweet talking. Be honest, but not an ass hole. Don't talk badly about others unless you're perpared for them to hear you and retaliate back. Don't badmouth someone else to make yourself seem better! It just makes you look like scum to the good friends you actually would want to keep.
-People who neglect their 'loved ones'
+In no way, shape, or form should the world neglect and love fit together in a sentence, EVER! If you love them, tell them so every now and then, show it every once in a while, give them a hug or word of encouragement when they need it. Don't put everything else before them. I piss my ownself off with this one, since I am guilty of doing this to more than one of my loved ones. I hate myself for it and I am changing it, I think.
-People who guilt trip others just to get their own way
+What's up with that? Why should anyone make another feel like crap for, huh? That's not cool.. Just because someone doesn't want to do or say something, doesn't mean they don't love you and you shouldn't make them think you feel that way when really, you don't.. Manipulation is not a way to make or keep good friends or other loved ones.
-People who think they're better than other people
+No person is better than another person, deep down, everyone is the smae, and everyone has all of the same basic needs, living just complicates their minds making them think they need extra things that they do not.


There's a lot more, but I guess, by now, everyone's like: ... o_O euh... right... No, this isn't drama really.

Well anywho, I guess I can explain this little rant if anyone asks about it. You can just ask about one and I'll post it as a reply, since believe it or not, I don't feel like typing more right now. OMG! A semi-short journal entry! lol Bye!

]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12505216/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12505216/ Sun, 08 Apr 2007 04:28:16 PDT
Making car payments really takes a toll on my checks there, yeap. ... Plus last time, I helped out someone else, eep. I had a 700 dollar check, OMG! lol Of course that's only because I had 20 hours of overtime for working at another store in Orlando. -.- At first I liked it, then they showed their true speak only Spanish to the white girl who doesn't speak Spanish lazy attitudal no help the white girl who doesn't speak Spanish sides. >.o lol

Prom is coming up soon and I still have a few more things to add to my gown/dress. Until I add on the final touches, I'm gonna call it a dress.. It's royal purple and the theme surrounding it is butterflies. o.O I noticed I keep using that theme for my sewing, lol. I will post pictures of the gown and accessories, as well as me wearing the finished peice as soon as I feel like it and can. Prolly after Prom. Eep! 7 days away!

Uh-mmmm.... I love my car! I took it to a do-it-yourself carwash with Steven and Chris last week and since then have put the cover over it while I'm at home and it has stayed all purty and shiny.

I took my GED test this week! And Steven took his, too. I'm confident that I at least passed most of it. I dun know about the essay part though... I am horrible at writing essays.. and I know on the science part, I answered one of them wrong due to stupid brain farts... >< It was sooooo easy and obvious too! Other than the essay and a select few problems it was all 7th grade or below knowledge being tested, so..yeah, I think/hope I passed. AND If I did pass and I get my test results back soon enough, I may be able to participate in the Graduation this May! WOOT! That would be so cool. If I don't get them before then or I didn't pass a section of it then I will have to wait until next May to go to the Graduation ceremony. Either way, after I know I passed it, I am sure/hopeful that my management training will begin.

On a working note.. Guadalupe, my friend(Mexican) at work who was teaching me Spanish left!! She went to North Carolina and she will be there for 3 months!! And then, after that, she's going to Mexico for 3 MORE months!! ... Her mom is sick, I hope she gets better. But that's not the part that really upsets me. Guadalupe said she would call me yesterday/Saturday to tell me she was leaving soon so that I could come to her house and say good-bye. But she didn't call OR pick up her phone.. I left a message on her phone last night, so I don't know if she understood it all yet or not. I hope she calls back. >< She'll be back in Florida in Nov or Dec she said. And then I'll have my Lupe back! And then Maria Carmen said she was going to bring Tamalies(I KNOW I mispelled that..) last Sunday.. And *gasp!* She didn't! And then Janet started saying Yo querro un bebe.. And I told her: No you don't! You're only 19, same as me! She said she didn't care and kept saying it! AH! And then Juan punched my bicep, so I pinched his tricep and left a bruise, o.O; Sorry Juan.. Btw... All of the above names are that of the Mexican peoples that I work with and each of them speak very little to no English. Janet told me she took 1 year of Spanish in school and Juan wants to go to school to learn English because he said that he needs to speak more English and he wants me to help him study. And Maria [Carmen] is willing to learn and Janet and her both ask me Comme se [whatever] in English.. lol Wee! And the managers always ask me to tell them(Janet, Juan, Maria, Lupe) what they are wanting them to do. And with my awesomely aquired Spanglish language skills, I do so. ^^ They have learned a lot of English from Wendy's since they started. Wow, this was a long paragraph, huh? Anyways, I'm going to miss Lupe. Te extra~no Guadalupe! :sniffles: WHY!?

Edgrr so cute! He still loves car rides and on my Birthday, we all went to the park. We all being my Dad, my sister Brittany and McKinzey, my brother Martin, Steven, and my friends Crystal and Michael. It's my favorite park to go to and I took Edgrr with me! He was on his leash and harness and he followed us everywhere through the trails and up the dunes and through the tree trunks. We had fun climbing the trees too. lol It was SO much fun and I'm glad my Dad got to go because he... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12264277/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/12264277/ Tue, 20 Mar 2007 20:33:33 PDT
And since I neglected to comment on your journal Cassie, if you're in fact reading this... I hope things get better really soon for you. I empathize with your situation. I feel sad that I can't in any way shape or form help you right now, since I am here and you are waaaay there. I would come and buy you some groceries and cook for you with my new Health Craft pots and clean your apartment so you could get some sleep and rest from studying without getting sick again in the process. Well that's all I have to say since I can't actually do any of those things for you at this moment.

Anywho, I don't want to bore y'all with much more of my rambling, so dear gods, I am cutting this journal of here. Also, for those of you that didn't know.... It's my BIRTHDAY!!! YAY! I'm 19 years old!!!
And Tirivan aka Mayu/Tiffany 's Birthday is the 24th!! Happy early birthday!!!!!! ^^ I love you all, bye bye now!!

OMG! I got a car from a place with financing for the first time ever. Wee! Building credit is fun, yay! It's a 2003 Level 1 Saturn Ion. ^.^ It's a maroon-ish colour. ^^ I love it so much. $1200 down, close to $400 a month. I'm not complaining, I'll get it paid off faster.

AND! Steven and I both registered to take our education tests this previous Monday. Our orientation is on the 19th of this month. Our tests are on the 3rd and 4th of April. WEE! Study time is soon to come.

Oh yeah, and I am going to go to prom with one of my new friends from work. @.@;; I still gotta make my dress though, I am thinking of mayhaps pink... I don't personally like pink, but I have pink make-up and earrings. I think I would like to add some ruffles.. << >> Maybe... lol

Uh... What else was I gonna say? Oh yeah! So, within a three day time period, I got 2 vital things taken care of for my management promotion thingy. =3 And in case you weren't paying attention, those two things are my car and my diploma.
My dad says he's going to stop by the house and get some pictures of my car, and I in turn, will then 'steal' some of those pictures and post them on devART to show y'all my new beautiful baby.

I'm so excited!! And I got esurance, with oodles of financial help from my hubby, Steven btw :-P, and after I printed the thingies, I laminated them, lol. Now they are cute 'lil cards. ^^... I know, I have some issues.

Jeez, everytime I try to make a short journal entry, it always ends up being longer. Sorry to anybody who actually reads my minds crap. haha No I'm not. 513 pageviews! Woohoo!! Ah jeez, I'm really behind now, I still haven't finished my piture for the 500 pageviews thank you. x.x Thanks in advance!!(in advance of the picture that is..) Bye bye!

I know I am not this wonderful artist or anything like that, so I am not going to pretend that I am. But, I do have a lot of ideas for pictures and drawings swirling about in my head. It's just really hard to draw ONE thing when 5 are screaming your name. X.x; I really want to draw a chibi Phantom of the Opera. I also want to draw a picture involving my favourite cocky anime characters, Yuske(probably mspspelled it) from Yu Yu Hakusho, Naruto, and oh yeah! Inu yasha!... Anywho... I want to do some funny fanpics for Fruits Basket by Natsuki Takaya. I hope I rememered the name correctly... ><;
I am also wanting to draw some more Naruto pictures, just because even with all the crazy fillers, I love the show, I get very emotional when I watch the sappy/sad episodes. That happens when I play video games, too. I want to draw Edgrr as a ninja kitty. I made an attempt at this, but the kitty I drew looks nothing like Edgrr and looks like it might be a girl and I got the proportions all wrong. x.x I am also doing something with backgraounds that I will be able to reuse... I am making them out of construction paper and brush pens, we'll see how it turns out...

Not only that... there's more. I don't have as much free time as it may appear to do all of these things, because I am also in the process of getting my GED, I register today.. ack $45... and I take the test sometime after the 15th. Mine and Tiffany's birthday is coming up yay! I'll be 19 and then in another 4 days after that she will be 19. haha! I'm older!! Pfft. Oh yeah, stay on topis Erin.. I also am getting a new car, well new to me, soon. My mom said another manager at Wendy's, whom we both know and trust has a working Toyota something or another that she is selling for $1000. That's not much if it works like she says it does. Hopefully, it's as good as she says it is and I can be driving my own car by next month, because I REALLY need it. lol

BUT BACK TO THE PAGEVIEWS! AHHHHHHHHHH! WEE! I'm so excited! o.-;...-.-...v.v; I know, I'm pathetic, but I can't help but be excited, even though other people probably wouldn't be at this point. Since I got back to DevArt, I have gotten about 200 pgvws.. That is since January 28th, pretty much only a little over a month. That good for me. yep yep. PRAISE ME DAMMIT! lol O.O;; J/K? Okay that's enough rambling, I have much stuff and thingies to do. Bye bye for this journal entry!

Edgrr seems happier when Steven and I are both with him rather than just me. He purrs a lot more and louder, that's for sure. He gets waaay more cuddly after 'Daddy' has been around. He pitches a fit like a toddler when he doesn't get to 'go bye-bye' with 'Mommy' and/or 'Daddy'. He loves car rides, I think I've mentioned that in an earlier, much longer journal entry.
I say to Edgrr, "Edgrr... Do you wanna go bye bye?" His ears perk up as he watches me grab the leash and he does his little purr-meow thing as he skips over to me. Then he makes a bee line is I guess what you could call it, for the door. Then he sits down and stares at me until it opens, then he runs out and heads straight for the car. He may stop here and there to sniff this or that. But I like it when he explores like that, because it's so darn cute~!

Anywhos.. yesterday, aka Friday morning/afternoon.. Edgrr was not in a good mood, I guess. I was doing something with the computer, I am failing to remember what it was now... When suddenly, with no warning what-so-ever, Edgrr starts pouncing my feet. It was funny at first, but he kept doing it and when I tried to push him away, he started to attack my hands and scratched them all up again... Jus' when they were startin' to heal too... So I scold him. Telling him not to bite me and hittin his nose. His ears went back of course because no one likes to be disciplined, especially when they were 'just playing'... He starts to give me a low growl. I pop his nose again, telling him to stop it. He then hits me back with his paw, claws extended. I grab both of his front paws and hold them together with one hand and hit his nose again with my free hand. Once he stopped growling, I scratched him in his favourite spot. He purred a little bit.. then I guess he remembered he was mad at me and his ears went back again and he started to bat at me. Rinse and repeat... I placed him on the floor, with his tail twitching everywhere. It's really funny to watch his tail go crazy like that... lol ^.^;; I should feel bad about making him so angry at me, but he started it this time! So I tell him to sit with the hand jesture and command I taught him. I kinda shaped my hand like the sign language 'E' and say "Edgrr, sit" He sat with no problem and looked up at me with those big adorable green eyes. He knows he gets a treat when he sits, so he was patiently waiting for it. Then I give him the command, "up" which is usually to stand up on two feet, but I will go for him jumping, too. He mixes them up, so it's all good. We do the tricks with the tuna treats for about 4 treats and he walks away satisfied I guess. Then he pounces me again! DX I then pick him up by the scruff of his neck and hold him like a baby(which I always have held him like that) and he calmed down a little bit, then we went to my Mom's room and sat on the edge of the bed. Brittany was acting like she was dunk or something o_0;; So she was being REALLY annoying especially towards Edgrr. Poor baby... I just got him calmed down too. So I get Brittany to stop pulling at his oh so fluffy tail, and he lays on my legs and sorta hugs my knee. It was adorable, you had to be there I guess.. Then I say those magical words... "..go bye bye?" He started his little purr-meow and seemed to forget that he was upset and we got into the car. He sat in my baby sister's car seat, his favourite spot in my Mom's car btw. Then he layed down with a look of pure bliss on his face. ^.^ AWWWW! That's what I said and I pet him lots, of course it was when the car wasn't moving that I turned around to do this! {:3 He sat in the car seat while I loaded my Mom's car with stuff from my old car from the auto salvage place, so that the guy could junk my polka dot v.v... Then we headed home and on the way home he climbed into my lap and snuggled into my arm. hehe! It just made me really happy.
So after we got back to the house, I had to leave right away to go to work. I said good-bye to Edgrr and gave him lots of kisses. Then 'Daddy'(Steven) picked me up from work and drove me home. 'Course he came in. ^.^ So I went to the room and got Edgrr, who greeted me with a purr-meow. I asked him, "Guess who's here baby! Who do you think?" The whole time he is purring and licking my lips and chin with his scratchy sand paper tongue with his eyes closed. *.* AH! Cute! So I continue, "It's Daddy! Can you believe it? He came to see you. Actually he was driving Mommy home, but oh well. Oh look! There he is!" Edgrr was in my arms being held like a baby when I moved closer to St... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11923322/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11923322/ Thu, 22 Feb 2007 15:24:41 PST I have started working on my stories again, but this time, I have a MUCH better idea about what the spork I am doing. So wish me luck anyways. I may post tidbits here and there. But I don't want to do that too much, because my brain gets lazy when it thinks it's done with something. e.e; Don't ask.
Anyways, if you haven't all ready, PLEASE check out my gallery and look for changes, tell me what you think on a deviation that maybe catches your attention, probably the ones with colour. 9.9 *sigh* Black and White isn't as famous as it used to be.. lol J/K

Thank you to everyone who has supported me through the annoying and the whinyness. I love everyone on DevArt and oh yeah! Check out my favorites, too! There are some really awesome deviations in there! As well as a lot of kitties 6.6;; Sorry, couldn't help myself. I like the Valentine's Day Naruto Comic, I only favorited the 6th page, so to fully get a grasp on it, you will need to start on the 1st page by going to one-of-the-Clayr 's gallery and find it there.

Until next time, hopefully I'll still be in a happy cheerful mood =3 Bye bye!

OBEY ME!

<.< >.>; O.O;; Well that didn't work..
BUT! I am terrible at giving up when there could still possibly be ...hope..
lol Brittany, my younger sister and Jessica, my older sister.. they can both draw very well, and Brittany does nice pastel drawings and sculptures as well as sketching. Jessica can fabricate things from other things and she is really good at painting, she can also do some sculpting and of course she is an awesome sketcher thingy person. Plus, they can both draw animals very well and they have their own unique and solid style of drawing. Because of the constant shifts in my drawing styles, I haven't been able to properly illustrate my story.

No matter! I will just have to try harder not to suck so badly! lol ^.^

Also, off topic but I wanna say it anyways.. I look back on high school and wish I had taken an art class.. or joined the band or chorus or something, just to improve in art some where. I did take drama, but I was already pretty good at acting me thinks..and I was absent half of the time, so I didn't get to be there for most of the lessons. I know that's my fault. I also wanted to take culinary classes, because cooking is something I LOVE doing, and I can do it all of the time as long as I have supplies. I really wish I had been able to live with Tiffy in my last two years of high school, or at least go to the tech with her. I dunno.. I'm just being whiney right now, because I have this horrible loopy cycle thingy going on:
I can't get my car fixed until I save up some money.
I can't save up some money until I start making a lot more at my job.
That's not going to happen until I get my diploma and my car.
And I can't get my diploma without my car.
I need to stop being such an idiot when it comes to money. I've got $775 saved up finally! .. But that probably won't be there still after I get the bill for my car to be fixed. My beautiful polka dot car will soon, hopefully, be working again! YAY! It's my first and only car and I bought it from my Aunt Nancy when I was in 10th grade, I think it was. Anyways, I've had it a little over 3 years now. It hasn't been running for much of it's third year though... Hopefully Mr. Mechanic can fix polka dot up.

Burr-r-r.... It's cold in this room.. Brittany is a penguin I swear she must be! It's like 30 outside and she has the window open with, not one, but TWO fans on. My fingers and hands and arms and toes and feet and legs are purple! My nose is red.. It's really cool looking at my hands being purple with all of the scratches from my newly de-balled kittie, who for some reason has become more aggressive since the hacking of the baby making jewels.. I am going to post up a picture of my hands because... well because I want to! Stop asking silly questions like that! Okie dokie, I'm off to find my webcam because it got slightly mis-placed-ed.. Until next update, that's all my loving friends! ^.^

I guess, I could tell you my YouTube name. Vrendowl <--...yep that's it, if you're interested, you can check it out. I think I have 5 actual videos right now. I will be adding more, but not right now.. Actually there are 6 videos, because I am in the process of adding my most recent one. Okay that's all I guess. Tootles!

I took Edgrr to the vet to have his balls checked and to see if they could go ahead and neuter him. Yeah yeah... I know I am going to hear it from some of you. But it's better for Edgrr so that he doesn't get the urge to fight the other kitties quite so often. Anywho, we got there and waited maybe 15 minutes before they just said, you can just drop him off and we'll call you to let you know how things go. Okie dokie. So..! After giving them my cell, house and work number I left. lol Yes I am a worry wart mother. e.e;; So he got neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated for rabies ALL in the same visit/day. ^.^ He was so drowsy on the way back from picking him up. lol It was even more hilarious when I put the catnip on the floor. XD He had his paws out in front of him, but to each side. Then, he kept rubbing his head into the floor in such a way that the back of his ears were rubbing against the floor. Also, from that he proceeded to rub his muzzle into it as though it were the best tasting kittie food in the whole world. lol Anyways, he is now without balls... O.o;; AND he has GPS. ^.^ lol Fun fun. Well, as surprising as it may be, my journal entry will be ending now, just thought I should update that little tidbit o' information-o's. ^.^ He's still me baby and he still purrs like he did before, so I have no worries about his personality trying to change, because I know that it won't. ^.^;; I KNOW! It... WON'T! lol K....., Bye!

SO! Unless ANYONE has ANYTHING to say to me, then my ramblings about what have transpired over the last year and a half will no longer be. I was going to explain about the arguements and fights I have had with my grandfather, what with me calling him a bastard and him telling me to get out, then my uncle scott calling me a bitch and telling me to leave, then this other old guy saying i commited chinese water torture on my cousins baby, calling me a bitch, then telling me to get the fuck out. But oh well, that is a breif summary and details... yeah whatever.. why bother.

Everytime I try it only makes things worse. So instead of rambling about that crap, I decided tonight to instead post my 6 month evaluation from Wendy's.

HERE IT IS!:

15-20 Meets Standard/Expectation
21-24 Exceeds Standard/Expectation
25-27 Exceptional
My score 23 falling into Exceeds Standard/Expectation and as for my raise which if you do well, you get with these evaluations was 25 cents. Meaning I now make $7.65/hr. Yay! A quarter! This makes me happy. (btw: 25 cents is as much of a raise you get at a time as a crew member. so Squee!)

Employee's commentsI added after having a 30 minute discussion with Christie, the co-manager and the one who did this review) Thank you for the input and I will try harder next time.

Anywho... That was my recent review, just got it last month. I would like to add, that I am trying to go into management and as soon as I have my ever so necessary high school diploma, they have told me that I will in fact be promoted. ^.~ Yeah!

Well that's all; if any of you that are the job holding peoples and have reviews, please post it and for which company you do in fact work for. ^.^ I love you all, Thanks for reading!

]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11704934/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11704934/ Tue, 06 Feb 2007 02:10:11 PST Well.. Let's see... I already talked about school and animals and work... I don't think my friends even have been reading my journals all the way through... Mayhaps.. I made them too long. Well they are ramblings after all... hmm... Maybe I should try to cut it short this time? But then again... It would be more trouble that way, because I would spend way too many journal entries trying to catch up to previous happenings.
I know! I can talk about my places where I have lived since I was gone! Well right before or after I left school for the last time, I moved in with Steven, my fianced person. Anywho, at first, it was pretty cool. I guess it was sorta like playin house. I got to buy groceries and such and cook and I didn't really have a bedtime, lol it was fun. We didn't fight too often. Then he started complaining about us not spending enough time together. Up until we started living together, our free time was spent with one another. But, that was when I lived at my mom's house and not with him... I saw him everyday, before work, after work, when I was going to sleep, when I was waking up, while I was getting dressed. He said the only time we really spent together was when we went to eat at Denny's or Waffle House. It's really hard to spend time with someone who doesn't really have a lot in common with you. I love to roller blade and draw and watch anime, as well as play video games, which btw I never get to do anymore. He barely knows how to roller blade now, he likes shows like NCIS, and horror movies. It's difficult for me to watch horror movies anymore, because they induce many nightmares for many nights after watching them, increasing my insomnia, thusly increasing my emotional side.
I'm probably the same as a lot of people, but the idea of death, really scares me. Mainly because I think of what was there before I was born. I have no memories obviously of what happened before I was born. And according to my history book, there was a lot that went on before my time. But to me, it was nothingness, or at least if there was something else, I can't remember it. Sometimes, I feel like there was something, but there's only glimpses of what could very well be my imagination. Then I think of what it will be like when I'm gone. There are so many religions out there, it's hard to think that only one if any is right and all the others are wrong. I have come to believe because of these thoughts, that perhaps all religion is just made up to put peoples' minds at ease about thoughts of death. But whenever I think about it, I get this great(big) horrible feeling inside of me, it's cold and throbbing, and makes it very difficult not to cry. I begin to shake and try to close my eyes and block out everything, but this only increases my uneasiness. I know I'm not the only person who has these feelings, but it's a difficult subject to bring up to anyone, friends especially. And if they don't understand what I'm saying, then it only worsens the explaination process, because they I have to think more about this dismal topic. Death is unavoidable. No one can stop it. There is a matter that also has me confused, the spirit or soul if you will. What happens to all of the memories, personality, me when I die? This brings back to the religions.. -.- Gah.. I'm just talking in circles now..
Well anyways, I need to change the subject before I have an anxiety attack. Oh yeah before I completely go off this subject. I would like to add, that topic is the reason I have my constant anxiety attacks.
OKie Dokie! Back to Steven's house. The situation deteriorated quite rapidly in the 9 or so months that I lived there. We began to argue pretty much every time we talked to each other. And a lot happened with my having two jobs and our spending of the time together. So.. yeah.. once Bob Evans was gone, I thought maybe it would get better. Quite the opposite actually.. Another issue we had was the fact that I do have friends, and he has a few, but most of them are in New York still. Our friend Chris, lives but a few miles from Stevens. And yet, Steven doesn't go over there as often as he used to. They have drifted apart I think. I think Steve sometimes takes for granite the friend he has. Most of my friends live nowhere near me and I always lose contact with them at some point or another. Sometimes I can get back in touch with them, sometimes not. Other times, they might get back in touch with me. ^.^ In the same 2 month time period, two of my friends got a hold of me. One, a former Wendy's co-worker, Rocky. He became a dear friend to me, one of the few friends that I actually spent time with and went to places with. It was only a few times, but we at least had stuff in common. ^.^... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11691655/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11691655/ Mon, 05 Feb 2007 01:00:19 PST

Wow... O.O I just realized how long it really has been since I was gone... Hm.. Uh Let's see. I did go to a different school and lasted until 4 months before school ended... x.x Then I withdrew again. Eugh.. I got some more credits I guess. Drama was lots of fun and so was American history actually. I got an A as opposed to my past F. I had a much better suited for me teacher person. My World History went up from an F to a high C. Yay! And my chemistry grade sucked, mostly because of my lack of the doing of the homework. x.x And I kept falling asleep in class. It was at the end of the day and right after lunch. x.x;; Anywho, English was pretty fun even though I already took the class. My teacher was cool, too. ^.^ Yup yup. I must say, I did learn a lot more from his class than the previous English 4 that I took.

Um a a um-a....

Gym class I guess was fun. I ran more on the track than ever before. And I was the best runner of the girls in my class, mostly because they were all either preppy or goth-ish and they didn't want to run anyways. Oh well. I was the only one out of the girls that met the goal that they all set (stupid dorks they are..) of 10 and a half minutes for whatever amount of laps it was. I made it with less than a minute to spare. But also, I have to take into account that, unlike anyone else, I stopped for water after every lap. My teacher said I did a good job. ^.^ That made me happy. I was also pretty flexible, more so than over half of the entire class. Book work for that class was pretty much common sense I think. Yes there really was book work. My class was called Personal Fitness and I forgot what the second half was called. x.x I feel bad for not being able to remember. But I know for the second half, we were in a different classroom on the other side of the school and we didn't go to the gym at all. Plus I had a different teacher. I think it was a Life Skills Management class. Yeah! That was the name of it! ^.^
My new school had two floors instead of one and the cafeteria was A LOT smaller. O.O I was shocked at the difference. The library was on the second floor though and it had this like cafe thingy. It was pretty cool, but I only got to get anything from there once.

Anyways, enough about the school. I made some friends there, in my English and Math class for instance. I met a person named Robert. I didn't even pay attention to his last name before actually talking to him. He said his dad worked at Wendy's. I forgot what I said before that, something about me knowing a lot about Wendy's and then he said he knew a lot too and I asked how would he, thus the topic of his dad. Well, as it turned out, His dad was my moms boss. My mom is a co-manager at Wendy's and Robert's dad was our new district manager. O.O;; lol I thought it was really cool, I finally had a friend that also had a Wendy's manager parent. Robert was a really funny person, I use past tense because although I see him time to time, I don't actually get to talk to him anymore. We would write and pass notes. Mostly all of his notes consisted of RSF(Rainbow) from Stargate. If you don't watch Stargate, then you have no idea who I'm talking about. He was a HUGE fan of RSF. It was funny whenever he got started on the subject. We had the same lunch for the first half of the year, and since he was one of the only people that would actually talk to me, I followed him around a lot. I think I started creeping him out though... v.v He was really tall. He made me feel even shorter than I already am.. And he was a year younger than me! Not fair! Boys ... and their evil... tallness. I also made friends with some people who worked at Whataburger right next to my Wendy's. Matt and Kyle. They were funny, too. Kyle was in my math and english class too. And Matt was in my english class. In my Drama class, closer to the middle of the year, this girl named Thea joined. This was about the time I started working at Bob Evan's Restaurant as a cook. Thea's mothers name was Rose. Rose was a server at Bob Evans. I met Rose and found this out after I met Thea and closer to the time when I stopped going to school. Still with me? yes?...No? Good. Anyways, back to the funny part. My dad came into Bob Evans one day and started talking to Rose after giving her funny looks here and there. As it turned out, Rose is my dad's half brother's half sister. Meaning My Dad and My Uncle have the same father, different mothers. And that my Uncle's mother was Rose's mother, too. And since Rose grew up with my dad, they consider each other brother and sister anyway. I thought it was cool when I found out because me and Thea saw each other a couple of times when we were younger. It's a really small world, tha... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11675115/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11675115/ Sat, 03 Feb 2007 18:29:43 PST
Hello to anyone who cares to read. This journal entry is more of an explaination of going ons in my life whilst I was away from deviantART, for my far away friends. I moved into my fianced persons house with him. <.< That sentence doesn't make too much sense. Oh well, you get the picture. After I moved there, I found my 'new' baby, Edgrr, as seen on my current favourite deviantion. He was about 3 weeks old, tiny tiny cute baby in my moms garage tangled in sheets. I went in there because I heard him meowing. I untangled him from the covers and left him alone for about a day and a half. No sign of the mother and our female cats weren't able to fit in the timeline needed to mommy him. Again, another akward sentence that I can only hope that y'all understand. So I couldn't stand it anymore and took him out, bottled fed him some milk and snuggled him lots. When I picked him up originally to untangle him, he purred and meowed a whole bunch and rubbed against me. Brittany(my younger sister) and I both thought this strange because of all the other times we find Skunk's kittens, (Skunk is my older sister's cat) they always hiss and spit at us. Back to the bottle feeding. About 3 maybe 4 weeks later, he began to knaw on the nipples and ate two of them. O.o; I decided we were ready to move up to hard food. Also during that time, we had to litter train him. I already had Saio(my now stolen kittie, I'll never see him again v.v) at my house. Saio of course, we already had litter trained. Originally Edgrr's name was just Grr(or Gir) don't really remember, from Invader Zim. But Steven's father's name is Edward and I told him it was his first grandson, so I altered his name to be named after 'his grandfather'. ^.^ So his full name changed to Edgrr Allan Cramer. Gah, I hate how I ramble! Back to the litter box training ordeal. Edgrr couldn't climb into the litter box I already had, so I had to buy a more shallow box for him. But he still did his business on the floor behind the chair. So I moved the litter box thusly. He began using it after that and then I was able to combine the two into one and move the one into the bathroom. Squee for success! Oh yeah and another note: From the first night on, Edgrr has always slept in the bed with Steven and I. ^.^ He likes to snuggle and used to lay on my upper chest/neck. He would go to sleep purring. He sometimes layed in between us. And Saio used to sleep at our feet. I also had my pekinese, Bosley at my house, but he kept getting into fights with Saio, so since I oculdn't litter train him, he went back to my mom's house. Edgrr adjusted to hard food pretty quickly, and he also regularly knawed on my hands, >.o;; (fingers and arms and such. He climbed up my legs a few times, too. >.< One of the days, he accidently(I'm saying it was an accident) layed in his business, so I decided to take a shower with him. He was always in the bathroom when I took a shower anyways and a few times he would walk into the shower. So I bathed him well and he didn't scratch anymore than usual, which at the time, isn't saying he didn't scratch me. >.< Owie, at least I don't have scars. I must say though, he does like showers but he definently doesn't like baths. So he likes to take showers with me. ^.^ He likes to play in the bathtub when there's no water in it. We gave him those little balls with the bells in them and empty toilet paper rolls since he kept getting the full ones. x.x He likes watching me cook he would sit behind the kitchen sink or on top of the fridge when he finally could climb/jump that high. I leashed trained him, that took about a month. He does really well in the car. He always has, even the first time. He just picks a spot and either sits or lays down. When Steven drives, his spot is Steven's lap. When Edgrr goes places with my mom or in my mom's car, he sits in my 4 year old sister's car seat. He also likes just the back seat, the front dash, the back dash? thingy, and the floorboard when he's upset, also a lap is prefered as well as between the two front seats, but only if he can get lots of attention or when we are at the bank. He doesn't try to run all over the car or try to get out. But when we tell him to, he does get out with no problems. ^.^ He's gotten a lot more docile since I first brought him home. He used to bite and scratch me a whole lot when we played, but we broke that 'habit', if you will. Now, the most he does is grab my hand with his mouth, but then he doesn't bite down. o.O; Kinda weird actually. He likes to be held like a baby and he likes his belly to be pet and/or scratched. Sometimes though, he isn't in the mood for that. ^.^; He just recently got introduced to the outside world and he is about 9 months old. He's gotten so big in the time I've had him. I think he thinks I'm h... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11594839/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/11594839/ Sun, 28 Jan 2007 02:41:34 PST

Disorder | Rating
Paranoid: Low
Antisocial: Low
Borderline: Low
Schizoid: Moderate
Narcissistic: Moderate
Schizotypal: High
Histrionic: High
Avoidant: High
Obsessive-Compulsive: High
Dependent: Very High

Moderate, High, Very High Summaries/Symtoms that I show sometimes:

-Moderates:

+/Schizoid: People with schizoid personality disorder avoid relationships and do not show much emotion. Unlike avoidants, schizoids genuinely prefer to be alone and do not secretly wish for popularity. They tend to seek jobs that require little social contact. Their social skills are often weak and they do not show a need for attention or acceptance. They are perceived by others as humorless and distant and often are termed "loners."
+"Loner" mentality; avoidance of social situations
+Appear to others as remote, aloof, and unengaged

+/Narcissistic: Narcissistic personality disorder is characterized by self-centeredness. Like histrionic disorder, people with this disorder seek attention and praise. They exaggerate their achievements, expecting others to recongize them as being superior. They tend to be choosy about picking friends, since they believe that not just anyone is worthy of being their friend. Narcissists tend to make good first impressions, yet have difficulty maintaining long-lasting relationships. They are generally uninterested in the feelings of others and may take advantage of them.
+Takes advantage of others
+Lying, to self and others
+Obsessed with fantasies of fame, power, or beauty

-Highs:

+/Schizotypal: Many believe that schizotypal personality disorder represents mild schizophrenia. The disorder is characterized by odd forms of thinking and perceiving, and individuals with this disorder often seek isolation from others. They sometimes believe to have extra sensory ability or that unrelated events relate to them in some important way. They generally engage in eccentric behavior and have difficulty concentrating for long periods of time. Their speech is often over elaborate and difficult to follow.
+Superstitious or preoccupied with paranormal phenomena
+Difficult to follow speech patterns
+Feelings of anxiety in social situations
+Odd beliefs or magical thinking
+Appears shy, aloof, or withdrawn to others
+Superstitious or preoccupied with paranormal phenomena

+/Histrionic: People with histrionic personality disorder are constant attention seekers. They need to be the center of attention all the time, often interrupting others in order to dominate the conversation. They use grandiose language to discribe everyday events and seek constant praise. They may dress provacatively or exaggerate illnesses in order to gain attention. Histrionics also tend to exaggerate friendships and relationships, believing that everyone loves them. They are often manipulative.
+Exaggerates friendships
+Overly-dramatic, occassionally theatrical speech
+Needs to be the center of attention
+easily influenced; highly suggestible

+/Avoidant: Avoidant personality disorder is characterized by extreme social anxiety. People with this disorder often feel inadequate, avoid social situations, and seek out jobs with little contact with others. Avoidants are fearful of being rejected and worry about embarassing themselves in front of others. They exaggerate the potential difficulties of new situations to rationalize avoiding them. Often, they will create fantasy worlds to substitute for the real one. Unlike schizoid personality disorder, avoidants yearn for social relations yet feel they are unable to obtain them. They are frequently depressed and have low self-confidence.
+Social inhibition; retreating from others in anticipation of rejection
+Preoccupation with being rejected or criticized in social situations
+Fear of embarrassment results in avoidance of new activities
+Poor self-image; feelings of social ineptitude
+Desire for improved social relations
+Creation of elaborate fantasy lives

+/Obsessive-Compulsive: Obsessive-Compulsive personality disorder is similar to obsessive-compulsive anxiety disorder. People with this disorder are overly focused on orderliness and perfection. Their need to do everything "right" often interferes with their productivity. They tend to get caught up in the details and miss the bigger picture. They set unreasonably high standards for themselves and others, and tend to be very critical of others when they do not live up... ]]> ~Vrendowl-OToole http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/5180871/ http://Vrendowl-OToole.deviantart.com/journal/5180871/ Sun, 24 Apr 2005 21:40:15 PDT I have been withdrawn from school for the rest of this year in order to salvage my GPA and I will be returning to the 11th grade next year, most possibly attending a different school than the one I have been for the past 3 years. The only elective course(non-acedemic) I am taking next year is Drama. Yippee skippee yay.
I have been severely sick for the past few days, symptoms actually started as severe headaches that made me cry. EVIL! On a side note: until I fell ill, I only ever had 4 headaches top in my life. Then I started getting dizzy spells, lost my appetite for anything and everything. Today, well yesterday now(Sunday) I had to work at noon. I woke up about 11, 11:30. I went to work and about a half hour later, maybe slightly more, I passed out while making sandwiches. Our District Manager in training carried me into the office while I was still out. It funny because he's shorter than I am, so I can hardly imagine. Then my mom showed up and shortly after that she took me to the Emergency Room. They took me back immediatly, 1) because I passed out. 2) I was out of it according to my mom, like half awake or something. 3) my left arm kept going from severe pain to numbness. They took me into the crital care unit and put me into a room. -.- I had to undress and put on one of those annoying gowns. ::shivers:: EVIL! After over 7 hours of boredom and worry and scaredness feelings, I don't know how my mom felt. Anyways, back to over 7 hours, they let me go home. They ran a cat scan on my head and a chest xray and busted a vein in my right elbow and then stuck me in my left arm. They took lots of blood, they did. They had to retake it one of the times because they took it too fast the first time and destroyed the cells... -.-; EVIL! Some sort of blood count was extremely low and the cat scan even showed the severe viral infection, not to mention I was very very dehydrated, and hungry, and tired. #.# Then my mom said that my left eye looked bruised, like someone had hit me. Oh yeah and Steven showed up at the hospital. Chris, a friend and coworker called and told him what had happened so he came to check up on me to see how I was doing. He stayed there for about 4 hours/until they released me. My prescription would have cost $100 without the insurance my mom has, but insurance took off $80 thank goodness. Anywho, my headache started back when I came home. I have to take 3 days off from work this week. Eugh, my hours are hurting. I only got 16 hours last week. ><;
I guess that is the more imprtant issues for this time, I decided to put it on DevART this time so Tiffy, Cassie(good luck with EM!~), Carissa, and Courtney could all know what is going on right now with me I guess. (anyone else I missed in the naming of the peoples, I apologize!) Bye bye!
