Well, today is my birthday. I turned 31 today. Yay. Big deal. Feels the same as 30 did. LOL

Most of my comments on the last post stated either that they didn’t know anyone who did rituals or didn’t know what rituals are. Well, rituals are how Wiccans and Pagans celebrate their holidays.

Doing a ritual on Yule is like going to Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. It’s our way of celebrating with our faith. They’re a bit hard to explain, and I don’t want to step on anyone’s toes if this kind of thing offends them. They’re pretty much just religion ceremonies used by Wiccans and Pagans.

I put up a new layout on Gothika Plugs. I also added the ability to purchase stickie plugs on the site as well. I’ve added a new skin to this site, and I’ve already got the replacement for Happy Holidays ready to go. Man of Steele features Peter Steele of Type O Negative, and the replacement for Happy Holidays features images from a deck of Chinese Tarot cards that I found on Aethereality.

I have to work tomorrow, but that’s ok, because I volunteered. Double pay, plus an extra 8 hours of PTO time added to my PTO bank. I can deal with that!

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas, Blessed Yule, or whatever you celebrate.

Well, today is Yule. At least according to my 2006 Witch’s Calendar. Most of the people I know are doing their rituals tomorrow night. Oh well. I’m doing mine on Saturday most likely. I was going to do it tonight, but LaShawn came over to spend the night, and I’m not going to offend her as she’s a Christian.

I’m bored out of my mind. I have nothing to do per se. I’m just updating a couple of sites, blogging on a few places, and generally messing around.

I made a site directory. Why, I don’t know. But I did. So if you’re interested, check out Cerulean Listings. Don’t forget about my button exchange as well at Triple Moon Exchange.

I guess I’ll go post a few more of my poems on my AllPoetry account. Seems about the only thing I have to do tonight.

I’m just curious. Why is it so incredibly difficult to leave other people’s things alone? Why can people not just leave things as they find them? I guess I should explain what I’m talking about.

There are six apartments in my building. I’ve been living here for seven months now. I have come home to find my porch light bulb completely missing twice and unscrewed once. Tonight, for the third time, I found my bulb completely missing. This time, they took it while I was home. Usually they don’t. It annoys me to no end that my neighbors feel that removing my porch light at their whim is perfectly all right. They also felt it necessary to put THEIR half-working, half-non-working Christmas lights on MY side of our shared front porch. I’ve complained to the landlords once already, and it looks like it’s time to make another complaint to them about this most un-neighborly behavior. This is in addition to the fact that both the neighbors next to me and the neighbors above me tend to scream, throw things, and stomp around. I’ve literally had my ceiling lights swing because of the upstairs neighbors.

On another note, what is it with people who talk on their cell phones while driving? Honestly, do they not realize that if they get into an accident, even if the accident was not their fault, they WILL be ticketed and fined for using a cell phone while driving? In most states, it’s illegal to use a cell phone, even with a bluetooth or other hands-free device in use. I know in some states you can use the cell phone while driving if a hands-free device is utilized, but in many states, you can’t. *sigh*

In other news, I found a couple of games for my GameCube. I got my copy of Animal Crossing and I found the Collector’s Edition of The Legend of Zelda. Zelda 1 & 2, Ocarina of Time, and Majora’s Mask all on one disc.

I’m going to try putting a second div layer inside the absolutely positioned ones to see if that helps. Thanks for the advice. I’m also probably going to take down the Going Pink skin, as the pink seems to be getting brighter by the second, and I’m really not fond of that layout anymore anyway.

Well, I’m off to play Animal Crossing. You could never tell I’m addicted….I have FOUR towns: Soo City (a play on where I live), Daytona (for those NASCAR racers), Brooklyn (what can I say, I love Type O Negative ), and Cameron (for those gorgeous WWE wrestlers Matt & Jeff Hardy). Sheesh! TTYL!

Does anyone know how to make the text scoot a couple pixels away from the borders of the divs?? I’m trying to figure it out, but changing the padding of the div layer just makes the div a few pixels wider and doesn’t do anything to move the text away from the border. It’s driving me bananas.
