Exciting surprises! Ahhh.. I finally feel a little more control of things in the diaryland department. I wanted to be able to change my layout a bit, but I know ZERO html. Well, I just looked over the html and figured out some of it. Now, how do I pick out more colors? At least I got to do some more stuff. I think Andrew should give us a little more help, but maybe he doesn't need to since it seems like almost everyone but me knows html. Alas. Hmmmm.. a different font might be nice. Qui sait. Okay, I talked to M earlier and he will call me when he gets back from doing the rosary for a dead relative of his. His family is Catholic; and while he doesn't practice it here, it seems he goes to church and all that there. Just let it be known that I will not end up Catholic. Don't worry. My mom said the other night that she knows that I will end up Christian. Huh-huh. I don't think so! The closest I get is anthroposophy. The medicine I use is anthroposophical. I am taking these subcutaneous injections to cut the depression. It seems to be working rather well, actually, and I don't have to take any of those nasty antidepressants. Yuck. I took A to a regular MD yesterday, who just couldn't believe that at age 4 she has never had antibiotics of any kind. I also told him that she has never been immunized, and surprisingly he wasn't too negative about it. I've done a lot of reading on these health issues. I think if she gets immunized it will be when when she is about 12, for rubella. Not because I think it is a serious illness so much as if she gets pregnant and contracts the illness her baby could be born with serious deformities. I would hate that for her and her baby. By age twelve her immune system would be stronger and any negative effects of the immunization would be lessened. So, I talked to my friend about these diaries. She commented that it seems like noone actually uses them for real diaries. It is more storytelling than really dealing with personal issues. I have to say myself that I have definitely kept the personal stuff out of it since I was discovered by my real life friend, Acorn. Now, we are best friends, right, so I should be able to share these things, but I guess it's just never been my style to share my innermost life with people actually in my life. I do with M, but it is a hard road for me to travel. I experience a lot of fear about the whole thing. Also, what is on my mind most lately is something which I am not ready to share with my real life people. They will find out when I am in Texas after I get back from Italy. So Acorn, here is something worth waiting for! I'm moving, and I really need to start cleaning. Fun fun. Actually, it might be a little fun. Cleaning is active and helps me think. I cleaned for 5 years during my college years, making pretty good money. I loved the people for whom I worked. Really nice people. I think it definitely kept my brain going and kept my body going too. Unclebob mentioned audiogalaxy, so I checked it out. I'm digging it, especially with this killer ethernet connection. I downloaded MC 900 Foot Jesus, which I listened to a long long time ago, back in 1994. I also got Simply Red's "Lady in Red," which I think is a great love song. His voice is so sincere and loving. Okay, here I go. |
