New layout, people!

Well, not really. More like a new “About Me” section and a new song. Like it? I do.

Why the crap are my blogs getting so short?? I’ve never faced such a crisis!

Claudia’s Review of the Smilies

Ahoy!

Being bored and at home on a Saturday, I decided to do my own little review of all the different smilies you can use here on your MySpace blog. These are what I think they mean/say/fantasize about. Go!

 < Well, this is a given. Smile, grin, be happy. The generic “Meh. I guess it’s cool” smiley.
 < Another given. Cry, frown, be upset. Or, because of the color, “I accidentally dunked my head in a bucket o’ paint and I’m sad.”
 < “What ‘choo lookin’ at, homo?” At least, that’s what I see. Or, as I have used it, “I hate you, Rube Goldburg.”
 < I like this one. Reminds me of me. “I accidentally dunked my head in a bucket o’ paint and I’m down with it!”
 < Narcissus, a.k.a. me.
 < It’s the happy devil! Is the real devil this happy? If so, I want to know why. Did he just tell a devil-related joke (“Retirement is going to be hell…oh, wait!” kind of thing)?
 < I flippin’ hate this smiley! He’s 3D! Why the heck is that?? None of the others are. Self-righteous turd. F-.
 < Dork/nerd/geek smiley. I use this a lot. Coincidence?
 < Dead but happy. Goin’ to the happy devil, perhaps? Or is he drunk? He’s drunk.
 < The Sore Smiley. Represents, “aw, I just stubbed my toe,” or “aw, I just became a quadruple amputee.”
 < I don’t like aliens. F-.
 < Nummy nummy! I ate a mummy!
 < Aww…the luuuuve smiley. Never been used by moi. [insert Sore Smiley here].
 < Woosh! Don’t wanna mess with this guy. He just ate a firecracker and is farting from the front. Ewww…
 < The continually talking smiley. Or he’s chewing gum in a highly irregular fashion. Or he’s saying, “Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine!”
 < Oh, you kid!
 < It’s Kenny G! (Get it? Get it? That long note he played?…aw, screw it.)
 < “Woah! Pull those pants up, Granny.”
 < Never used this one. Don’t like it. Friggin’ mollusks. I’m boycotting.
 < Wee!
 < Flippin. Favorite. Smiley. I love that dirty look. He’s all, “hehe.”
 < Never used this one, either. I don’t wear sunglasses and I’m not a peachy color. I’m pale as a paleontologist (Get it? Get it? Oh, screw it again.)
 < The “oh…crap.” smiley. “I accidentally dunked my head in a bucket o’ paint and I’m going to get my pay docked.”
 < Anatomically impossible, but impossible to resist. I use this an awful lot.
 < The “I’ve got a lot of explaining to do” smiley. He’s saying, “The good news is I got all pluses. The bad news is that there’s an ‘F’ in front of each one of them.”
 < Ner-her. This one smiles strangely. Have I used this one?
 < “Who did what with the what now?”
 < The only pissed off smiley I use, cause that 3D one sucks and the fire one’s only for when I’m really mad.
 < Yawn. No, I’m listening. Really. Keep talking.
 < I’m listening. Really. Keep chickens.
 < Another conflustered (hehe) smiley. I like this one.
 < Winky winky! Or, “I just lost my glass eye! Retreive it for me, kind friend?”
 < The one continuously laughing. He must be near suicide.
 < I love this one, too. I use it a lot. He’s purple, he’s swingin’ those eyeballs about, and he looks like me. A lot.
 < Last one! Can’t figure this one out. Another anatomically impossible smiley, but I guess they all are, aren’t they? Severed heads and all…

Okay, I’m done. Like it? I do.

4 month anniversary!

Hoorah! I’ve had my Myspace account and blog since May 1st!

Time for some statistics!

-Number of blogs I’ve posted (not counting this one): 123
-Number of blog views: 860 (40% of those were by myself in moments of ego-boosting self-indulgence. Dork. )
-Number of comments: 41 (that’s a pretty crappy posts/comments ratio, people…pick it up or I’ll start commenting myself…and you don’t want that.)
Number of Kudos: 10 (10?! WTF?!? Somebody call a doctor…my butt just had a seizure!! Give me kudos or I’ll start kudos-ing myself…and you don’t want that.)

‘Kay, I’m done. And you people’d better start getting online more often, or I’ll start talking to myself.

…and you don’t want that.

Why I don’t post serious stuff

Some of you who know me well (relatively) may wonder why I never post any serious stuff on my blogs.

The reason is simple:

I hate doing it.

My blog is a happy place  where everything is rainbows and butterflies!

But seriously (haha)…I don’t like to write down all the serious stuff that happens to me and thought-provoking stuff that I think of everyday…that stuff I keep to myself because I think it is much better that way.

In other words, my blog here is a fun little world where I post all my crazy and up-beat doings (like the Periodic Table naming thing and the ‘Crunchatize Me, Cap’n!’ night of insanity). It’s where I put my best butt forward.

I’m not all Fruit Loops and hot chocolate…that’s just my life on my blog.

Now marry me, you lovesick fools!

Claudia’s 100th blog post!!

Things I did today that had nothing to do with getting ready for college:

1. Thought up quite a few reasons why sex is better than fishing (despite the fact that I am unskilled in both). My best reason was that the concept of “throwing back the little ones” applied to both activities.
2. Realized that this is my 100th post and spent a few minutes re-reading my old ones. What a random little life I lead!
3. Cursed Rube Goldberg for all that I’m worth (which is about $0.75).
4. Lost a considerable amount of time trying to fix our printer when I know good and well that it is the devil.
5. Played with my new Lego friends (Gregory is facing charges of vehicular manslaughter!).
6. Pondered who came up with that damn “when a tree falls in a forest…?” question. I hate that mutha!
7. While typing this into Microsoft Word (as I always do before posting nowadays), I checked Word’s possible spellings of the word mutha, which included “moth”, “mother”, “Murtha”, “moths”, and “math”.
8. Cursed math for all that I’m worth.
9. Wondered why, when I copy and paste this into my blogging area, all the apostrophes disappear.
10. Found out the Zodiac signs of the entire “Whose Line is it Anyway?” crew.
11. Watched “Full House” cause absolutely nothing else was on.
12. Set my “current mood” to “quixotic”, because really–when am I ever gonna be quixotic ever again?
13. Typed this list.

3 Month Anniversary!

Hooray!

Today is the 3 month anniversary of my Myspace page!  That’s quite a few blogs…as you all know.

So here we go with month 3 updates on my list!

LEGO MOVIE UPDATE: MONTH 3!
Hahahaha…well, I got “Ocean’s Eleven” finished…but that’s about it. Been busy cleaning and packing for college (after unpacking from Alaska about a week ago).

NOVEL UPDATE: MONTH 3!
See “Just living life” blog…but I have a couple hot ideas!

BOOK LIST COMPLETION UPDATE: MONTH 3!
This is one I’ve actually worked on a lot! Four books read (three of them were over 400 pages…gimme a break), one in progress.

ORGANIZING MY CRAP UPDATE: MONTH 3!
Hooray! I’m so close to being done with this one! HOLY CRAP!

Okay, that’s all.

Pretty profile!

Like my new profile colors? I do. I’m a happy little freak.

This is a short and sweet blog, isn’t it?

Wee.

My First Post on MySpace

Alrightythen! I finally got a MySpace. People will now find it easier to stalk me. Anyways, since I’m obsessive-compulsive, I had to start this on the 1st of a Month–I wanted to start this a week or so ago, but NO–that would be in the middle of April. I’m tired now and I want to go to bed, but NO–that would mean I would have to wait another month to start.

Anyway, it’s all good. I’ll be here posting my thoughts every day. At least, that’s what I want to do.

The odds of it happening?

50:1.
Meh.

*just discovered all the smileys*

….HOLY CRAP!!!

…this is the best day of my life! I’m changing my current mood from “anxious” to “jubilant”!!!
