The Evil Has Been Called ,Once Again
Well, the evil beast is upon us once again, yes my dear friends, I am talking about Psychotic Menstrual Syndrome more commonly known as PMS, lets see what I've done in the past few days:
I threw a few things
Went off on various household members for no apparent reason
Someone asked if I wanted to dye Easter eggs and:
Regular church goer: are you going to dye Easter eggs?
me: hell no
regular church goer: why not?
me: because Easter eggs have nothing to do with Easter, it's a pagan ritual
regular church goer: no it's not
me: YES, IT IS!
regular church goer: looks at me and then doesn't say anything else because she knows that I'm usually right about these kinds of things. I mean maybe people should know why certain things are done instead of believing what someone tells them and just jumping on the band wagon!
And, oh, this was a mess: I hear a knock at the door
me: Who is it?
2 ladies: we're bible students and we would like to share some thoughts with you.
me: (screaming through the closed door at the top of my lungs) I DON'T NEED YOUR THOUGHTS!
2 ladies: (saying something to me, but I couldn't hear them as I had walked away from the door)

I wish had had some people to do things with. I'm not going there today, I'm already in a shitty mood.

I'm so glad that Oprah did that show on the working poor. I try and tell people that most people who live in poverty are hard workers. I used to get so pissed off when I started college and rich kids would say that people are poor because they're lazy and they're criminals and, they live in run down neighborhoods because they are too lazy to fix them up, and they have roaches and rats because they aren't clean, and, and, and.
People who can barely afford to eat, do not have money for pest control or house repairs. There are a few moments in my life where I didn't live well below the poverty line, and as soon as I get a little extra money, something happens. I have more money now that I've had in the past but, I'm like one step away from having to live on ramen noodles again. This is why I get so pissed off at American Celebrities when they're in other countries talking about how hard the people have it. I've lived without the basic necessities, a toilet, shower, sink, lights, food. I started sewing so I'd have something to wear. When I first got sick and needed to go to a neurologist I went to every agency that supplies medical help to the poor and I wasn't eligible for any thing because I don't have children. One lady actually told me to get pregnant and they'd get me medical care, food, a place to live, a car, and help me find a job. My grandma cursed her out.
"You mean ya'll are gonna penalize her because she's smart enough not to have a kid!" (I was about 17 or 18 at the time, I had to be young if my Grandma had to be there.
If you were to look at the CDs, movies, and books that I own you'll be able to tell, when I had a little extra money and when I was barely eating. There is about a five or six year span in between my new books and my old books. most of my expensive things, like the xbox and computer and everything were gifts, or on sale because it had some kind of damage or defect. People who have money piss me off because they don't understand. When gamers tell me to get Halo, I try and explain to them that I have to wait until it becomes old news and the price drops below 20 dollars, they think that I'm just being cheap but, that's what poor people have to do. I never feel poor until people with money try and rub their shit in my face. I'm very grateful right now that I'm not as poor as I have been, but that can change in a moments notice, so I never get too comfortable. And I don't hold much value on material things. I can eat the foods that I like and not just the stuff I can afford right now and I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts.
I was trying to get my own apartment and the lady was a complete bitch after I told her how much I could afford, she's all "You're below the poverty line, we can't help you!" I wish I could have punched that bitch through the phone.
I know this, I've done a lot of things to try and pull my self out of this hell hole, I went to college, I worked full time jobs, I thought I was finally going to make it and then, I got sick and people who can't afford medical insurance and get sick are screwed.
Anyway I don't need people's help, I'm just glad that Oprah and the 30 day guy did shows so people who've never lived in poverty can see that poor people do in fact work and maybe they'll stop thinking that they're better just because they have money.

I never talked about this week's prison break. I just want to say that Wentworth Miller acted is ass off in that episode. I loved the way he used his eyes. He's a bad mother- hush your mouth! Ha-Ha.

So, I'll be back, when I get back, whenever that may be. I saw your comments and I will in fact reply to ya soon! Be good and have fun!
I know what being poor is like...there was a time when we were on food stamps and had to get alot of help, BUT WE NEEDED IT! Now we don\'t, however we do still qualify for alot of things from the aweful welfare system, but we are fine without it and besides there are always people in worse shape than us so we feel like they need it more than we do. So we don\'t have a X-BOX 360, but we have a very used one that we bought from a friend. I don\'t drive a great car...it is used and hanging in barely! Even though my hubby has a way better job now, we still struggle. Anyway, I could go on with this but you know it and I don\'t need to explain the shit...lol We are dyeing eggs tonight, but I will not be hiding them...after finding one last year and having it break...no more!
Well enough of a ranting , so I shall go and be a pagen and dye eggs...it is fun though
Later...
*grins*
I was shocked when I found out how things work!
