Is it weird that I find Kevin Smith incredibly sexy? I check his blog a couple of times a week. I like his movies. I love Dogma. I can't wait for Clerks II to come out on DVD ('cause I can't stand going to movie theaters).

Yoshi reminded me Friday that July 28th was Sys Admin Appreciation Day. I showed my Sys Admin a little appreciation *wink, wink*, but I thought I'd share a little love for him here, too. In case you didn't know, we run all of our web sites off of a server here in our house. My better half, Marcus, is an IT guy extraordinaire. He helped me block the hot-linking losers on myspace, he helps me figure out how to fix code that I break, he's the BOMB! He also made me a caffeinated coffee beverage a couple of hours ago and helped me drag an extra desk back to my craft/computer room so that I can post on my laptop while I surf on my G5 (I'm on my laptop when I'm in profile on the webcam). So, not only is he my best friend, he's one hell of a sys admin. Thanks, Marcus!

Wow, that half hour went fast! I'm trying to post on some people's blogs, but for various reasons (comments closed, I need to register, etc.), I can't comment. Frustrating. Bloggers seem to be dropping like flies, as well. The total tally is now 299.

Why does my skin seem to get itchy when I know I have a webcam on?

I just read that Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock got married. I didn't know they were still dating. I wonder how long this one will last.

I was at at What Was I THINKING? earlier today and found this cute little avatar/animation/doll thingie. The website is Meez. I've been playing with it. The damned thing didn't work in Firefox, though. It worked in Safari.

Here's my result:

Wow, it is hard to post and keep up with everything else that's going on!

Here's how I got my previous bunny:

When I was going to the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley, my girlfriend and I lived in the basement of a house and her brother lived upstairs with 5 of his friends. The Denver Broncos were in the Superbowl, so there was a major party happening upstairs. Two of those guys owned snakes...one of the snakes was a boa constrictor that was 7 or 8 feet long. They had purchases some rabbits for snake food, however, the rabbits were too big. The large snake was just playing with them, sqeezing them, etc. They had the last surviving rabbit in a smaller snake pen on the back porch. He'd been pretty messed up and was sitting in a puddle of his own excrement and urine. I asked what they were going to do with the poor guy and the jerk says that he's going into the superbowl chili. Over my dead body!

I rescued him, took him downstairs and gave him a bath, wrapped him in some towels. The poor thing was scared to death! I was a big metal head (it was the '80s) and I named him Stryper. He had white and gray bands. I'd post a pic, but all of my old pet picures are in storage, I think. Anyway, the squeezing did brain damage and he had bouts of epileptic seizures from time to time. Other than that, he was the most sweetest bunny I ever had. I had him for many, many years. I had to have him put to sleep when a particularly bad seizure broke his back. My mom drove me to the vet and I cried and cried. In fact, I'm getting a little teary now. *sniff*
