Sheesh.
So Mikayla is getting an MRI on her knee right now. Tomorrow she goes to see the orthopedist to have it checked out. I hope she gets some physical therapy prescribed so her knee doesn't come out again. :/

Page 1 of 2Anyone got directions to the Newburgh Assembly Hall..or an address?
i got you - from your house
take 287 North to 87North (toward Albany). Take it past exit 16 (Woodbury) - stay on 87 North to exit 17 (Newburgh/Route 84). Go through the toll, stay straight (past route 84, dont' get on it) then go to the traffic light, straight through the light, hall on the left.
my boy steve is gonna be there on sat, i think
BAH! time for a new page that doesn't freeze my whole computer for 5 minutes.
haha
LOL. Ok, I definitely have to visit Basel, Switzerland just so I can use this:
This one's in London, so perhaps this is a trend... :-)
Obviously I missed a thing or two in Switzerland.
Another interview in an hour and a half....not sure why, but THIS is one I'm nervous for. No clue....
You probably want this particular job the most over any other.
AWESOME SIGHT:

so my worst nightmare came true friday night. i was meeting some friends at this restaurant/bar in downtown fullerton. anyway i was the last to arrive and as i'm getting to walk in through the patio to get to my friends, i see they're all staring at me and have the weirdest expressions no their face....so i'm looking around and i notice to my left there was a table full of midgets. OMG i practically ran when one of them got up. my friends could not stop laughing. midgets SCARE me. :(
Hahaha - why do little people scare you?
i got bit by one when i was little....LOL
What? Was it at a carnival? :)
WHAAT lol
STORY TIME
HAHAHA i was only kidding. seriously its like what can i say. they just scare me.
its more along the lines that they're BIG people in a 3 year olds body. Like i cant handle that they look as old as me and come up to my knees. it's jsut scary to me.
Haha I'm thinking, yeah right... simply:
A)Lift right foot
B)Squash
C)Repeat
(Do not attempt @ 5'5 or below will result in ankle bitting)
Yeh, but not all midgets are side-show midgets
Small hands....smell like cabbage....
one time keith smith took me to an rv, and the guy was a little person. he gave me no warning. but the guy was really nice
haha, Bob! he is a nice guy. but keith pulled the same thing on me.
he did that to me too!!!! lol the guy was super nice... but yeah, took me off guard.

Update from Todd:
Day one consisted mostly of jury selection, today "things are looking good so far" quote from Todd! "We seem to have a lot more evidence against her evidence"
Plus he has to briefly testify.
Whoo hoo! :-)
Did I miss anything Todd?
OK SO, i work for a chiropractor on tuesday nights and well, she's ticking me off...LONG STORY..so anyways, I don't want to work tonight. Anyone have any good excuses to call off so I'm not lying????
Just tell her I have a meeting tonight.
She already knows that meeting nights are Mondays and Thursdays.
LOL ... but Ian does, and I do too. :-)
no, no, you misunderstood. tell her that I have a meeting tonight.
HAHA, Sorry Dr. Wilcox, I can't come in tonight because Ian has meeting tonight...haha. kidding. I was thinking of this, and this isn't lying..Garrett has a flat tire and dropped it off this am and had his coworker pick him up...SOOO, maybe, "Dr. Wilcox I can't come in tonight because Garrett is having car problems and we only have one car right now". It's the truth, just let her assume that I have to go pick him up...yay or nay?
haha... why don't you just tell her the truth.
"Dr. Wilcox, I'm not coming into tonight because your a crazy witch doctor and drive me insane" HAHAHA. We had a deal that I would come in once a week and work 530 - 9 for her and she would give me chiropractic treatment. Which is worth it for me, we are just trading services. So now all of the sudden she is tallying up the number of hours that I worked and is paying me 10.00/hr and taking it off my bill(she charges like 100 per visit because she bills my insurance too)...which isn't worth my time at all....She originally wanted me to quit my job and go work for her and she was going to pay me less and not give me any vaca or sick time plus have to work nights and weekends. CRAZY WOMAN!!! So I told her that it's not resonable for me to quit my job and work for less, and that it was a step down. And this was her response "So what are you trying to tell me?" AHHH!!!!
hey if anyone's bored here's a new little photo blog i started up.. i'm gonna try to update it almost every day, we'll see what happens.
great pictures! nice little bloggy blog
Wow Kam, I kinda had an inclining you were good but WOW! Your great! Pictures, people would actually want around instead of a a thick album, to torture guests with. :-)
thanks thanks! Yeah i thought with this i could be a little less "formal" than my main website, include some fun stuff, help people get to know me a little before they hire me, yadda yadda
good times! haha
dude why are so many folks getting married and engaged.
good for you though. lots of business
you know what you should also get into..
DIVORCE pictures!!!
now that would be a goldmine too.
I can see it... call them anytime (24hr service), a lab coat clad crew of non nondescript interns flow out of a grey windowless van. Glove clad hands quickly & efficiently find and destroy, in a make shift incinerator on the front lawn, all traces of the ex.
Big bucks baby, big bucks! :-)
Hey weirdoville called..
They want you back home
wha?! :-P
Somtimes the fish eat the stuff on the hook and the fisherman gets all excited and he thinks about dinner
Oh, my I meant to include 'pictures of the ex'.
lol, you totally meant to incinerate the spouse. freudian slip, am i rite
musta been a freudian slip, shoulda added photoshop'n the ex out of group shots, but then what would Freud say?
I couldn't figure for the life of me why Thai would think some thing odd, had to re-read twice to see my error, how embarrassing :-[
lol this took a weird turn quick eh?

YAY HEARTS CANDLEBOX
"now maybe i didn't mean to treat you oh so bad, but i did it anyway! ah hey ya yay ha yeah!" lol

Hasta la vista, Vista.
haha. they say they're doing all this unique stuff, but actually a lot of the things in leopard are already available in Windows and/or Unix. They all copy each other! but it's all good, we're better off for it.
but the Time Machine stuff is awesome! wow, it's slick.
did you see dashcode?
we can turn whatever part of ezabel we want into a widget. It seems pretty cool and easy.
"Why is this my life?" is almost everybody's question.

Gnarls Barkley
This album is growing on me. I like maybe 3 songs off it--right off the bat, but as time goes by I find myself listening to it all the way through, more and more.
yeah it's like the perfect music to drive to, and also the perfect music to have in the background while i'm working
i listened to it on repeat all day yesterday
today it might be happening again
I need to stop eating...I used to be pretty strict with my portions, now I'm eating like I'm 18 again. Problem is, it doesn't burn off immediately anymore...ugh...
HONESTLY! would it KILL you to put the stupid comment box at the top of the window... GODDDDDDDDDDDDD
i'm WORKING on it! sheesh!
Hey Ian, how is Mikayla doing?
Her knee is feeling better each day, but it's still very sore, and she's still limping a little. The worst part is that she's so scared of it coming out again that she has no confidence even when walking normally. Stairs are the worst. :/ She is improving every day tho.
The doctor recommended surgery, as physical therapy won't really help her at this point. :(
Aww, that sucks. Well, if she would get the surgery now she would avoid alot of problems when she's older though. And she wouldn't ever have to worry about it again right? Tell her I was thinking about her and hopes she feels better.
As a person who has had a knee operated on (thanks to a friendly football game amongst brothers), it is worth getting it fixed. Had I not gotten it done, I wouldn't be as active as I am now. But...I fear when I am older it will have issues since I can hear it crack everytime I move it. So unfortunately they can't fix your joints perfectly, but at least she can enjoy good mobility while she is young if she gets it done. And hopefully the new system will be here before we get old.
yeah, she young now, so surgery would be better sooner than later.
but.. the doctor gave her two options. the first would be to fix the ligaments that hold her kneecap in place, since they're out of whack now. that would help a lot. but the real problem is just the way her leg is made. her shin is a bit out of place, which causes the problem.
so, the other surgery would be to actually move the bone of her lower leg. O_O this is a major surgery and would take a lot longer to recover. and it has a chance of weakening the bone.
but she can always just have the ligaments fixed and see how that goes, and have the major surgery done at a later time. it's a tough decision. she doesn't want any surgery at all... but it's kinda like her only choice at this point.
Summer's famous hospital mate Sean Lennon has cut a new album for which he has apparantly produced a video for each track. I say go ahead and get more and more like your father, Sean:
youtube is the new ebaumsworld
oh man, totally not. ebaumsworld steals everyone else's stuff, and puts their badge on it.
youtube, people upload tons of original stuff. they also upload other people's stuff, but at least it's not the youtube people claiming it.
just meant that it's the latest craze in internet voyeurism
haha, sorry. i just have a distaste for ebaumsworld.
what in the world did we do before Youtube?!?!?!??!!
another reason why parallel parking is evil
that's terrible :(
I have a feeling this girl will never drive, ever again.
yeah, seriously. i can't even imagine.
there's a way to get rid of that nagging mom
well, I'm soon off to Philly for my court case. :( I hope things go well...
pray for me if you want to.
please let us know how it goes.
i hope it works out in your favor man. if not STICK IT TO THE MAN
so far so good, everyone!
Tomorrow we will have concluding statements and the jury will make a decision. I'll give you all the pros and cons later. We seem to have a lot going for us, hopefully the jury agrees.

Thanks for the rafting trip Beachbum!!! You the best guide ever... even if i was too powerful of a paddler for you to handle...
good times!
Thanks to beachbum and Andrew for an awesome weekend. We had such a good time!
I did this like a year a go.
Actually, a sister in my area is gathering another group but I don't think it'll be the same cause it's the people that "rock the boat" lol, so much fun! We had to paddle from the picnic grounds back to mainland WHILE it was lightning.
It's really great out I'm glad I wasn't stuck inside yesterday =)
Right now I'm on the second draft of my second talk in Spanish ( for Friday)...no freebies this time I've got a counsel point, lol!

"I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
I will only complicate you. trust in me and fall as well.
I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
I will work to elevate you, just enough to bring you down."
yowza, such strong, moving and sad lyrics. the music is amazing too.

O'l righty then... seems to be a slippery slope...

:-)
I've seen several friends get their wisdom teeth out..my face is like a million times more swollen than any I've ever seen. I don't simply have chipmunk cheeks..my entire face is at least 4x larger than it usually is.
Next time attach a picture so that we can laugh....hahahahahah....Just kidding. Hope your face shrinks back to normal.
no, no. lindsay, get that picture up.
if you dont show me a picture . i'll never talk to you again
I can't..it'll easily become one of those pictures people add text to and put all over the internet.
We would never do that. o:)
post a pic or i'll ban you
hahaha the power is finnaly corrupting! Rock on ian
Yah yah..I'll post it later this week when sitting at the computer for more than 10 minutes doesn't make me sick.
Dictator.
Somewhere floating around ezabel is the pic I posted the day of having my wt pulled. Find it, I'm sure it'll make yo feel a million times better =D
c'mon, pal. we love you. and your gravid face.
My teeth are in a terrible state themselves. Have lacked going to the dentist yet. He'd probably go all angry like the Seinfeld where his mechanic gets all mad at him because he didn't take care of his car.
Be glad you got them out....I waited until one of mine got infected, then got them out. Unfortunately, the infection had, by that time, spread to the lymph node WAY under the tooth, causing it to be chronically infected, and also having the same effect on the two lymph nodes closest to the original "node." Long story short, (but not really), 5 years after getting my wisdom teeth out, and countless trips to the doctor to find out what was wrong, AND countless antibiotics and steroids I was put on to try and kill the stupid infection (not to mention the pain it caused me...all the time)....I had to have surgery to have all 3 lymph nodes removed....
So be glad you got them out, even if there's some swelling. I'd hate for it to cause you pain later on. Besides, I'm sure you still look beautiful. :)
EWWWW! :D
Yeah I know....the worst part was that the last surgery wasn't dental work...it was "knock you out under anesthesia, take them suckers out through a crease we cut in your neck" surgery. Double ew.
The scar is virtually invisible, though, and it's only been a year and a half. Good doctor, hahaha.
Yikes..this does make me happy. Uncomfortable as this is..that sounds like 10x worse.
Trust me...the facial swelling will be over soon, and you'll feel so much better. How's the pain today?
Its only bad for an hour when the percacet starts wearing off before I can take it again. So..getting there :)
At least it doesn't make you nauseated to take that stuff....I throw up if I take that, or Vicodin....ugh. I'm jealous, hahaha.
aww you have a little chibi face dontcha?

What's a really quick way to change file extensions from uppercase to lowercase? For example, .JPG to .jpg
I have loads of these photos that all need to be .jpg to coincide with the HTML source
ren *.JPG *.jpg
there's something you can't do in unix without a script
oh yes you can. I don't remember what flavor of linux has it, but I distinctly remember one (maybe RedHat) came with a command "rename" that you could call like this:
rename .JPG .jpg *.JPG
and it had some powerful options. It didn't come with Cygwin, so I can't tell you anything else.
oh yeh. forgot about that one. coo, thanks
C'mon people!! Stimulate my mind!!

How did you know!!
i ate so much pineapple yesterday (sliced and ate it like watermelon) that the corners of my mouth were all raw and cut up last night, pretty gnarly
Uh yeah. I'd say so. Good thing I'm not kissing that mouth. LOL!
ZING!!
lol it's not really visible though.. haha... and today it's like 90% healed
Lysine.
Woot.
Next time eat the outside part of the pineapple...That'll do wonders for your mouth.
oh you're not supposed to eat the outside?
(j/k)
Friday should be official Margarita day.

Jews have to be the most pigheaded people to talk to about the truth. The 2 I've been talking to don't even follow their religion accept on the basis of their heritage when they celebrate the various holidays. I tried using Old Testament examples, they just don't care. They think I'm brainwashed. I'm just amazed by how blind people are. It gets worse and worse as time goes on.
What really gets to me is that they think faith is based upon something blind, that there are no facts to back it up. Wow... Satan has really twisted society into a crooked and deformed mess.
Hi. Lets talk about computers. Pentium's, AMD's all kinds, maybe even Macs. Mine has 3 fans and if I add one more it will fly away I can't wait

I'm so bummed. Our guinea pig has infections in both of her back paws; Don was clipping her nails last night and noticed them. She's going to the vet today at 3, but Donovan also noticed that she's got very telling buldges around her tummy, like maybe ovarian cysts. I guess we'll have to wait and see what the vet says, but Donovan feels like a negligent parent for not noticing sooner.
Poor little pig...
So no one cares about my poor dying guinea pig. That's pretty heartless, people. :(
When are you taking her?
Donovan's taking her as we speak.
TODD - season 3 of Arrested Development came out Monday. DO IT.
OMG, I'm on my way to WALMART right now!
aw man. This is not true. It's available for pre-order only. it really comes out August 29th or something like that.
aw nuts! i was misinformed!!!! i went to target and best buy and couldn't find it..i was ticked!! but i guess thats why huh? haha.
i love when amazon quotes a book for like $20 but then you can buy it used from them for $3 or somethign just as ridicously cheap. i love it!!
yeah used books on amazon are great. i've bought a few.
And I sold a few of my old college texts through amazon. Pretty good deal.
anyone interested in a street hockey game on sunday?
Such a crazy morning here. I wish that I had the kind of job where I only had tasks to accomplish and when they were done, I could go home - like a manual laborer or something.
last night i went to a magazine release party and in my goodie bag was the magic cone! the contraption for girls to pee standing up. really weird artwork on the package like a seventies-ish picture of a woman standing at a urinal.
ive actually seen one of these before... thats soo cool!!!
does it work??
i'll let you know? haha joking
what kind of magazine was it??
http://www.bust.com/ "For women with something to get off their chests." It's a lot of DIY home and fashion. Hipster kinda stuff.
i read about this magazine somewhere, but i can't remember where, or what it said, i just remember is because the tagline works so well with the title
I read it every once i a while, it's good for my touchdown hands when I rake. Rake that baby, rake that baby, then hut huh hike it.
That's so cute, the "Magic Cone" =P
"Cute" isn't quite the word I was thinking...
EWWE EEEE!!!
Please let it be 'disposable'!!
hahah it is meant to be disposable. i surely hope whoever actually uses it follows that guideline.
i carried an ac up to our apartment yesterday. it was lighter than i expected. i think in normal temperatures it would've been much easier though.
None of the brothers on here took you up on your offer, huh?
pat actually did, but he is having all this dental work and i couldn't wait another day.
Ah. Just got impatient, huh? I would've offered, but it would be kinda difficult to help from 3000 miles away. :)
I would have totally done it but CO visit this week wouldn't have got back in time... :P
thank you both!
ok so you know when someone that calls you hangs up you can hit a number and it gives you that number that called? so for the past 2 wks someone has been calling me at work and hanging up and its SUPER ANNOYING. so i hit *69 and it didn't work. is that the right code?
yeah *69 is the callback number, but it may not work in your office if you guys have a custom phone system.
There is a menu change, ok? Only bologna sandwiches. But no bread ok?
okay... i love the heat, i actually love it outside.. and this morning i was low on gas and I drove with the windows open for like a half hour - i loved it
but after a while it does get crazily hot!
yesterday i was in my garden for seriously.. 15-20 minutes.. and my hands were gloved and covered in dirt, so i couldn't wipe the sweat off my face, so i just shook the sweat off like a wet dog!! and it was just flying off my face!! i know!! gross!!!
and today in stone harbor i had a beach photo shoot.. at 9 a.m, which i was hoping wouldnt' be THAT HOT yet. I was SO sweaty when we were done, my face was the reddest ever, and my entire shirt was totally soaked, and i felt really stupid to be that sweaty!! haha
i forgot to add after i was dying of heat in the backyard yesterday i finaly turned on the sprinkler and just stood in it, in shorts and a shirt. I just wanted nothing else in life at that moment other than cold water, all over me. That ... NEVER happens. I hate cold water. So yeah, it was hot.
My email is not working today, it is annoying.
btu i was doing some weeding all this morning and although i wasn not hot i sweated like crazy.. (something weird is up with my keyboard
i love pineapple. I really should change my name to juicypineapple because they are my favorite now. I would totally live in one under the sea.
no way, i'm a big fan of pineapple, but mangos are def better.
the only prob with mangoes is the stringyness that gets between your teeth, but yes they are delicious. esp when picked from a tree. i wanna go back to the caribbean
i'm a big fan of cherries nowdays. yesterday, for breakfast and lunch i had like 30 cherries. i got ahold of some big meaty dark ones. they're so delicious it's insane.
Cherries rule!!
amen. Cherries are where it's at.
my favorite part of the pineapple is the center, core part, and most people throw that part out!
yeah i like that part sometimes.. sometimes it's too sour and my tounge gets weird! haha
I know you know how much I love pineapples. so good.
oh and YEAH it must be fresh. Canned pineapples are good for cooking and for throwing in a delicious salad, and stuff, and for an ice cream topping... mmm.. ice cream.... yeah but just to eat, fresh is best.
i LOVE pineapples!!! SOOO yum. there's this caterer type company that comes in and i love gettng the fruit salads cause the pineapple is so yummy!!!
did you ever have grilled pineapple? like on a shish ka bob or something. SO GOOD.
Ohhhh!! that's a terrific idea for BBQ's everyone!
i LOVE summertime BBQ!!!!!!!!
I'm going to a taping of the Daily show today! I'm pretty excited. Maybe I'll get a job as one of the correspondents! I haven't been to the city in months and I'm way overdue. First thing I'll do is get a deliciously debilitating dirty water hotdog. Then a cheesy t-shirt. THEN the Daily Show. After that--overpriced food and drinks. YAY! T'will be good times.
quality show!
no, baby, YOU'RE quality
