John Tucker Must Die. If you're worried about your teenage or younger daughters watching this movie because it must be full of sex and underage drinking. It's not! Yeah, the latest movie that should be full of this junk to rot the brains of our youth, isn't going to. Not only is it a cute movie, it also has a moral that every character learns their lesson.
I even risked putting it on the unrated version thinking that I was going to have to shut it off. There was mention of sex but nothing more than kissing in the movie. There wasn't any nudity or anything either. It was quite a nice movie. I am impressed. Lately that's been hard to do.
Honey introduced me to the movie 'Heavy Metal' and it wasn't half bad. It's an older movie, but it was still pretty good. Interesting story, interesting animation and lots of drugs were involved in the making of it, too.
Check it out.
Now those who know me, and you know who you are, know that I, in general, dislike people. It comes with the territory of my life history and getting sick of being screwed over in general, but now and then I come across an amazing person or two.
I've been tramping around all night, and let me tell you where I've been.
I've been thinking of attempting a blog that actually earns money and therefore I started to do research into how I could make this a possibility, even if it were only enough to say... put gas in the car, give the Little Lady lunch money.. buy the man a deck of Magic: The Gathering Cards, whatever. You understand.
Well, I've been inspired this evening, it's quiet, the Little Lady is in bed, the Honey is visiting his buddies and playing MTG (possibly just hanging out) and so I got to sit down and do the research regarding getting paid to blog. Since I am having issues finding a job close to home (I'm either over-qualified or extremely under-qualified) and haven't had a lot of luck I thought getting paid to blog might have something for me. I've seen several bloggers earning money with their posts. I've even thought of creating a new blog for doing so (I would like to keep Dis completely to myself) and what the hell...
So as I'm running rampant and looking over videos and terms of service agreements and FAQs and bloggers that get paid, etc. I run across this lovely woman: Tina Silva. Not only is she going to school for Office Administration but she also blogs like hell and gets paid for it, plus she has a life. I admire her. She's made a living of a passion that she has with blogging, used her passions in writing and photography to further her passion with writing and earned money to pay her bills, have money put aside and have a life, too. I find Tina to be an inspiration to me. Here are links to a couple of her sites:
A Woman's Diary;
Tina Silva's Blog;
Chaotic Mess. Org
If you decide to go through her list of sites you'll find absolutely different layouts, all colorful and easy to navigate as well. She's got a knack for writing what she feels and gives excellent information about whatever the paid for posts are regarding.
I'm sure there's a few of you out there that will enjoy going through her list of sites as much as I did!
I read the new posts on Get Rich Slowly. Thank god I'm not a shopaholic or a compulsive spender. I think even if I were rich I wouldn't be like that. There are things I would like to have, but don't need. Then there are the things I need. I checked in on some other blogs I read, but other than that I've done some dishes and checked in on class.
School is going well for the first week of Website Development 2. I like the teacher, too, that's always a good thing. Sometimes I just wish the teachers would post more, though. I like feedback from the teacher. Student feedback is fine if they actually know what they are talking about. I don't like giving feedback, but I try to give feedback to the students' who are doing projects that I understand.
Today is a beautiful day. The Little Lady and I saw a rainbow this morning, which turned into a double rainbow. We only saw the bottom portions of one side, but it was still pretty and extremely clear since I could see the colors without my contacts in. I had planned to take photos, but figured by the time I got back that they would be gone.
I've been trying to make a new splash page for the site, with no avail. Looks like I will have to pull out the book. It's been too long since I used Flash and now that we've had to upgrade, the book may be useless. We'll see. Some of the tutorials aren't all that helpful either, though, and I find that aggravating.
Maybe I'll go a-hunting for some tuts. Laters.
Since I can't seem to find work, I've been trying to find ways of saving money and sometimes even the store deals don't cut it. I found this site called Coupons.com and was wondering if there is anyone out there who uses it.
If you use it, please let me know what the deal is. Do the coupons really work? I didn't finish printing anything out at this time, I'm extremely interested in learning more about what the story is behind this site. Ok, I am going to do my own internet researching and see what I can find. I'll post the findings later.
