[EDIT] I’m now hosted by Magicomm.net. Sorry for the downtime on November 2nd… that’s when the domain was propogating. If you can see this message, I’m on the new server. [/EDIT]
Ew, this is the second time I’ve had to post this entry. I accidentally deleted the whole thing when trying to delete one of my test comments. I’m so retarded. Anyway, this blog was intended to introduce my new skin featuring Something Corporate and their song “Konstantine.” They have so many amazing songs, so it was hard trying to choose just one. Click here to select the new skin, and don’t forget to leave comments on it!
I’m trying to remember what I said in the original blog, and I’m having trouble. Ugh.
So I guess it’s technically Halloween right now, since it’s a little after midnight as I’m posting this. I’m going trick or treating with some friends from school and their French exchange students, so it’ll be a lot of fun. It’s been a few years since I last trick or treated; I’m eagerly awaiting begging for candy again! I have yet to decide on a costume, and I’m running out of time. If you have any ideas, please post them in the comments ASAP. Speaking of Halloween-ish things, I saw “The Grudge” tonight (well technically last night). If you’re in the mood for a horribly cheesy yet still extremely scary movie, go see it. The plot and acting were just ridiculous, but it was really jumpy. I lost my voice from screaming so much. However, I’m still a bit confused as to what actually happened. All I picked up on was that there were a bunch of scary Japanese people trying to attack Sarah Michelle Gellar and friends. Japanese movies confuse me!
So have I ever mentioned how completely and utterly in love I am with “Roseanne”? I watch Nick at Nite every night just for that show. I love her. She’s so sarcastic and hilarious, and she makes me happy. I think I’ve just about seen every episode. They need to put that on DVD, because I’d so buy it.
Yet again, I don’t have the plug hack to plug commenters. I’m going to have to leave you with yet another plug-less entry. I hope you all don’t mind. But I will be returning comments for the last 8 million blogs shortly (and I’m serious this time). Don’t forget to comment on my NEW SKIN!

Well this is my first new post on WordPress. I finally got off my ass and upgraded. Aren’t you proud of me? And thank god, my templates don’t look like ass, like some people’s. I’m happy with the outcome; my next goal is to be fully competent with this damn script. Some stuff is different, and I get confused easily.
4 more days until the presidential election. Don’t forget.
It feels weird to be home on a Friday. I have Friday, Monday, and Tuesday off for school conferences, and they decided to be nice and plan it around Halloween. Thankfully I don’t have to get up Monday morning to go to school after Halloween night. It makes me happy when school gets cancelled.
There are a few movies I want to see that have come out recently, but like I mentioned in a previous post, I’m flat broke. I have all of four dollars in my pocket, and that probably won’t get me more than a Coke at the movie theater. Hopefully, once I get enough money from advertising and selling layouts, I’ll be able to actually have a social life again. It sucks when all your friends have all the money in the world, and you’re the one searching for quarters underneath the couch to be able to go out with them.
And this is where I’d end the blog and plug all the commenters from the previous post, but I don’t have a plug hack installed on my new WordPress yet. So uh, just imagine that there is a big list of links here. I’ll try to get that installed for the next post. But thank you, commenters!

I’m sure this is old news by now, seeing as it’s Wednesday, but did anyone happen to catch the most recent edition of “Saturday Night Live” with Ashlee Simpson’s “performance” (if you can even call it that)? I didn’t hear about it until after my last blog, but the news definitely brightened up my usually dreadful Monday morning. However, I still don’t quite understand what dear little Ashlee is blaming it on. Acid Reflux Disease? The “drummer hitting the wrong button”? I didn’t think a drumset came with “buttons” that playback pre-recorded vocals.
“It’s so silly that everybody’s concerned about this one performance when there’s so many things going on in the world,” she told MTV News Tuesday morning, after her appearance on the “Today” show. “We have an election, there’s people dying ? and people are concerned if I can sing or not. You hear me sing on my reality show every day.”
*Insert Jon Stewart-esque blank “WTF” face here.* Millions of people tuned in to watch your performance on “Saturday Night Live,” and you better damn well bet that those “people are concerned if [you] can sing or not.” Your occupation is a singer. Correct me if I’m wrong, but people tend to focus on your singing abilities if you’re a singer…
Shifting topics… I’d like to thank everyone who purchased advertising in the past few days. Pleae go have a look at my advertising packages if you haven’t already. Check out my premade layouts for sale too.

I’ve added a button rotation to the sidebar, so please go sign up! I also took down the plugboard since that would kind of defeat the purpose of paid advertising. And if you’re interested in a premade design, check out my Yard Sale page.
This weekend has been rather boring. I went to the school football game on Friday, and we actually won. I think it was our first win all season, and it was the last game against the worst team in the division. What a great football team we have (/sarcasm). Then last night, I went out with two other people to see “Team America: World Police” again, but they were actually guarding the door this time. Last week we just walked right in, but we couldn’t do that this time. We saw the guard standing there, so we just continued to walk down the hallway of the movie theater like we weren’t even going to see that movie. We ended up walking back down the hall past the guard again to the lobby to figure out what we were going to do. Then we had to walk past the guard in the hallway yet again to go see a different movie. Not able to make up our minds, we ended up walking past him again as we were going back to the lobby! I was so embarassed. I think we passed over 4 times; he probably thought we were crazy. We couldn’t figure out what we wanted to see, so we just got a refund and came back to my house to watch “Friends: The Complete First Season DVD”. What an eventful Saturday night, *rolls eyes*.
I had all intentions of making a new layout this weekend… but that just didn’t happen. This layout is so old that it makes me want to cry, but I guess you’ll have to deal with it for a bit longer. There are six other skins though, so please don’t bitch at me. I was also planning on returning comments… yet again, that didn’t happen. I did, however, manage to fix the plugboard for those who claimed it was broken, so go plug away. [EDIT] Go buy advertising instead. [/EDIT]

My back felt somewhat better after my chiropractor appointment on Tuesday, but that good feeling didn’t last long. It’s aching yet again. I really don’t understand this. I never had any problems with my back until this past summer, and I haven’t made any major lifestyle changes to provoke it. I just don’t get it. It’s hindering my ability to do so many things, including sports. I simply cannot do strenuous activities for long periods of time anymore, and that really bothers me. I want to fix this, but I don’t even know what the fucking problem is. My chiropractor isn’t being very straight with me, and it’s pissing me off.
Ugh, I really need money. I’m so sick of being broke with expensive taste. I can’t take it anymore. I really want a job, but I’m, um, not so into working. The only job I could obtain would be one that I wouldn’t want to do, which is not good. I don’t want to work at a fast food place because I really don’t want to know how they make that stuff. I don’t want to work at a grocery store because it doesn’t pay well. And I doubt I could even get a job in retail or as a waiter because they don’t accept anyone under 18. Job opportunities are so fucking limited when you’re 16, especially when you’re as picky as I am. On top of that, I’m really discouraged because I didn’t get any of the seven jobs I applied for over the summer. That killed my motivation. I think I should rob a bank or something [/sarcasm]. 70 days till I turn 17.
I’m in dire need to return comments. I feel really bad because I haven’t done it for the past few entries. I’ve been busy. But here are the plugs from the last entry: Ali, Alicia, Alisa, Andrea, Ashley, Brittanie, Caro, Carolyn, Charlene, Chris, Chrissie, Corey, Darren, Des, Dionne, DJ, Hannah, Isabelle, Janet, Jen, Jennifer, Jenny, John, Julie, Kandy, Krystal, Kyupi, Liz, Mathangi, Matt, Meghan, Namie, Natalie Marie, Natasha, Nia, Nikki, Paola, Roberta, Sofie, Susan, Tayla, and Travis
