The New Year So Far



It's only been four days into the new year and what a four days it's been. I went to the gambling town for New Year's day with my family. I had fun, but I lost a lot of money because my one sister brought her bank card with her. I was smart enough to leave mine at home, but then I borrowed money from her. I've got to face the facts that I'm just a loser. I haven't won any good money for a long time now and I've tried to not gamble at all. I don't mind when I lose a little money, it's when I lose a lot that it becomes a problem. I used to gamble a whole lot more than I do now. I hardly ever go. I remember a time when I went with my Mom and other family members two and three days a week. I sometimes go once or twice a month now and sometimes I'll end up not going for months at a time.

I found out what my computer problem was. It was my ancient modem for my internet. It finally gave out and I had to get a new one because it wasn't even worth it to keep the old one. It lasted two years and it was one of the first modems Cricket had. I have Cricket and I'll never call the customer service number again. I called it twice and got two different answers to the same question. They tried to tell me that I used up all my giga-bites and that's why my internet was slow. That was a crock of shit because I've never had a slow computer or internet before and I've been on the computer for hours. Who the hell even knew how many giga-bites I had or could use? I was just thinking what the hell is a giga-bite. I've had Cricket for two years now and never had a problem. I had to go to the store and there was finally someone there that knew what the hell was going on and helped fix it for me. I ended up getting a new account and everything.

On Sunday I didn't get to see my little Sammy and it almost killed me. I know I'm crazy for loving an electronic cat, but I can't help it. I see little Sammy and all is right with the world. When I don't see him, the world is ugly and gray and I'm depressed. I love all my other little demons, but not as much as my little Sammy. It's hospital week in Pet Society and I've been waiting for this. I love hospitals and medical stuff. Little Sammy got all kinds of fun stuff to play with and he's so cute to watch.

I've been watching old episodes of Supernatural and going through all the previous seasons and not any episodes in any order. I've just been watching my favorites and ones that I don't watch that often. I like doing that. I also got an old favorite TV show of mine on DVD. It's Scarecrow and Mrs. King. I just loved that show and I still love watching it now. It's funny to watch some of those episodes and see how different things were back in the 80's. I was a teenager when this show was on and I remember loving Bruce Boxleitner. He got married to Melissa Gilbert from Little House On The Prairie. I think they're still married and I hope they stay that way. I still remember watching Melissa on Little House as Laura. I have some of those episodes too that I watch and it comes on public TV here. That show was one of the best shows ever for anyone to watch. It had values and morals and showed what could happen if people helped each other and stayed together.

I can't wait for the L.A. Con and it's getting closer and closer. I went on the site and seen they added Mark Sheppard and now I can't wait to see him. I loved him playing Crowley. He's been one of my favorite demons on the show so far. I kind of wish I was going to the San Francisco Con because Corin is going to be there and Jared and Genevieve are going to be at the concert on Saturday. If I had the money, I would have tried to get tickets just to sit at their table and meet Genevieve. I just don't understand why Genevieve is never at one of the conventions as a star. I would love it if I could get her autograph and I'd get a photo with her too. I'd love for Lauren Cohan and Katie Cassidy to be at a convention too. It will probably never happen. These three women helped make Supernatural be a great show and they played main stars on the show and they should be at a convention. It sucks that we'll probably never get to see any of them on stage or anything.

Well, that's it for now. The year didn't start off too great because I didn't have my internet, but it's getting better. I guess I found out that I can't live without the internet for long or I can't live without my little Sammy for too long.
