Hey, M is alive! The blog shall rise again!!!

I hereby declare this shared blog... DEAD

2003-12-03T17:13:00.000-08:00

no they don't suck! i like them! =)

2003-11-25T22:58:00.000-08:00

come and check it out< dudes! even tho mines suck ass.

2003-10-30T15:14:00.000-08:00

WOW! i wish i have the space to make that. it's kinda funnie how we have some of the same things they have on there. but our's is like half the size... *sob* tammy's being whacko these couple of days, he turns his head upside down before he drinks.... yeah think about that one....

2003-10-29T18:35:00.000-08:00

dang pat, look at this cage. i WANT this. i can hear the wheeks already. some from me. WOWZA.

2003-10-24T12:38:00.000-07:00

haha. thanks. obituary! that's what it is. p.s. me and pigs are very grossed out right now. a recent cage cleaning revealed a BUNCH of gross bugs (not ticks/fleas/lice but some kind of pantry bug thing) digging around their cage and their hay and their bowls. we promptly disinfected and tossed out a crapload of stuff. and though they weren't fleas/lice, i dosed them w/kitty advantage anyway.

2003-10-23T07:25:00.000-07:00

epitaph = writing on gravestone obituary = article about someone who has died. your vocab lesson of the day ^_^

2003-10-20T19:06:00.000-07:00

woh... was that creepy? i should imagine so. :P

2003-10-19T11:05:00.000-07:00

lol, yeah i thought it was an epitaph for a moment, which was kinda weird, cause i saw him online at the same time....

2003-10-15T17:18:00.000-07:00

that was a semi-random article. why did they write about him? it almost sounded like a epitaph or whatever's in the newspaper. too bad i never had him. :P

2003-10-12T15:29:00.000-07:00

woo! read this... http://www.svcn.com/archives/cupertinocourier/20030618/cu-news1.shtml

2003-10-06T18:53:00.000-07:00

look what i dragged home yesterday! http://www.petsmart.com/products/product_36790.shtml it's scary how big it is. i think it scared them too, the sheer enormousness of it. :P

2003-09-29T19:19:00.000-07:00

oh, and i forgot... some say that a dirty cage may start up mites too. clean often, i suppose is always a good thing. i clean once a week since my cage is big. since you have a smaller one (still???), you may need to clean a lot more since you have more pigs too. try carefresh (if you're not using it already) because it absorbs a lot better than woodchips. i use newspaper plus wood. not as good

2003-09-29T19:17:00.000-07:00

i don't think fixing whammy will cure the "humping". i think he's just like that. for social interactions for him, just divide the cage into two parts and let him have the smaller one. that way, he can't hump but he can still chat. fixing doesn't help anything except for the pregnancy thing. try to deter vey from giving a skin scraping. they hurt A LOT and most mites will not show up,

2003-09-28T21:31:00.000-07:00

aahhhh! school! why am i in school!!!! (*whails pat in the first week.....)

2003-09-26T13:27:00.000-07:00

guess i'll go call up a vet and set up an appointment for my lil ones. they'er not loosing too much hair as i observed, but tammy is a little bit flacky. i think spotty is more jumpy cause whammy tried to hump him. maybe i'll have whammy fixed... *sigh*.

2003-09-25T20:13:00.000-07:00

i took 'em to zee vet and zee vet fix-uh dem. mee pocketboohk iswas uh velly velly empt-tee after dat. no but seriously, it cost a bitch and half and according to lilpig, it hurt like a bitch and a half too cuz it was an injection. go check out guinealynx.com and post after you read the instructions. they'll blunt/sarcastic but quite helpful. they'll probably recommend invermectin, which is

2003-09-24T21:17:00.000-07:00

ewwww!! classes start tomorrow! ewwwwwwww!!

2003-09-24T20:47:00.000-07:00

xml is almost like regular html code, but you can use it as data storage also. that's prob the best i can explain it. my pigs haven't been consuming newpaper as much of late. they do like their horse cookies ^_^. whammy's been acting psycho lately. i think he has acquired the skill to fling poo at desired places (e.g. bob's hand when he's studying. he thinks whammy hates him). spotty is

2003-09-24T18:57:00.000-07:00

that dress rocks! except i would prefer a different color. pea green isn't really thing. would pink or blue be too cliched though? hum. my pigs have been consuming a lot of newspaper as of late. they sound like scissors. it's quite bizarre. they also are steadfastly avoiding strawberries and hoarding blueberries like a fiend. A FIEND i tell you! i don't like bold font. makes my pupils hurt. *

2003-09-23T22:01:00.000-07:00

actually just used regular html to post the pictures. because I have absolutely NOOO idea what the hell XML is. please feel free to enlighten this technologically and code deficient girl.

2003-09-23T17:40:00.000-07:00

Just changed the format of stangs 'n pigs, think this will look way better. If you guys haven't noticed, blogger is now using XML for thier codes and what not... I LOVE THEM! (heh...) Just added is a link to my new venture... blue blazes. Got the idea stuck in my head that it means hellfire, so hey, that's what I'm going through this quarter right? Hopefully I'll put a lot of strang little

2003-09-23T15:26:00.000-07:00

oh! oh! oh! and if you do make and sell soaps n candles or watever, let me design the packaging please!! it'll be way better than the 'alchemy' one i sent before. with cool shaped boxes or wrapping....yumm and please make mint soaps! (no one makes mint soap, even tho they should)

2003-09-22T12:17:00.000-07:00

hey there soapybarsuds, since i haven't been online practically the whole last half of summer. i just thought i'd show y'all 'stangs 'n pigs what i've been up to. take a look at the "red carpet gown" i made! (it was supposed to be suitable for the academy awards) all designed and sewn in a week and a half. (let's just say i ended up forgetting to eat a few meals.)ehhehehe but it turned out ok i

2003-09-15T18:18:00.000-07:00

cost effective=very very true. but that's okay. i can spare a few cents in the name of a good shower w/plenty of suds. i have two bars of bath and body works soap just chillin' because i'm anti-bar. i didn't buy them though. they were gifts. go...make some soap. maybe you can make gpig soap. anything to make bath time easier? mine like to bathe together at the same time. less scary. :P

2003-09-08T00:53:00.000-07:00

i don't think there's anything wrong with bar soap. in fact, i switched back to bar soap cause it's more cost effective (i always use more liquid soap then it is needed) just make sure you have your own bar.... muahahahahaha. i was at the Mountain View Art and Wine fest this wknd, and i saw a few ppl selling soap. They'er either too pricy or they'er just kinda not too attractive. I had a lot

2003-09-03T18:24:00.000-07:00

haha. soap. sorry but no thanks. none of that bar shiznitch for moi! i use liquid to create that oh soooo foamy loofah look. haha. please do not picture me or my loofah. thanks. :) i don't know how i can take care of kids every day. i think the way i end up at home or on none working days might be an indicator. i spent my well-deserved labor day feeding ducks and sleeping. ducks are quite hungry

2003-09-02T16:22:00.000-07:00

woo, now I can hack your cell! Oh wait... I already had it... damn.

2003-08-28T19:09:00.000-07:00

well flo, my cellie is *********, just call that and i'll get your number down =) I read a couple of your posts, sounds like a lot of fun at work, hehe. i don't think I can take care of kids like you do =) I've been making a lot soap with whatever was left of my supplies, I think I"ll be done with them by the end of the night. I got a book today too, a dummy book on soap and candle making. I

2003-08-27T12:56:00.000-07:00

Wow, I haven't talked to y'all in ages. The whole working from 9-5, 7 days a week thing. yanno. Patti, you should call me. I would post my number, as i just got a new cell, but the whole posting for the damn world to see thing isn't my style. haha. email me. same for you minna. and for anyone else i missed. And i don't think I will hop onto the friendster bandwagon. I think i'll depress

2003-08-22T23:17:00.000-07:00

my random post of the day.... didn't do anything interesting today... again. ok i got up really late and got around to do a bunch of grocery... that's about it... slap together a lasagna, that was pretty good, still got half of it left... i'm thinking lunch... yum yum. actaully made some iced coffee... well luke warm coffee, can't fit too much ice, get all diluty. watched how to lose a guy in

2003-08-21T22:26:00.000-07:00

well i don't expect people to notice that i've been posting here right away, but hell i'll keep talking... so after some discussion i've discovered how i have grown pretty damn useless at work, no wonder i was getting so damn bored. i was going to remedy the situation by listening to my ipod for 8 hours straight at work. but who am i kidding, i didn't even get that damn usb cable till last wk

2003-08-20T22:54:00.000-07:00

Ok i guess it's been a while since i posted last.... and didn't really get to say much..... ok this is what i've been doing... i quit my job... yay? i liked my job, but hell i need that extra time to finish school... school suck!!! bleh.... eh, what else is new......... i went home for a week, went camping for a few days, that was pretty nice... aaahhhh actual quietness.... it's like, omg,

2003-07-15T17:19:00.000-07:00

shut it. has anyone joined the friendster thing yet? if so, add me. heh summer school is hot hot hot. feel free to check out my stupid homeworks. ciao chickie babies

2003-06-29T20:56:00.000-07:00

You'ze all iz borin.

2003-06-20T20:08:00.000-07:00

I'd be an axe murderer... if I weren't a narcoleptic.

2003-06-20T16:27:00.000-07:00

at work bored no one to chat with *sigh*

2003-06-13T12:22:00.000-07:00

business idea -- store that crosses martha and thinkgeek... yup

2003-06-11T21:57:00.000-07:00

I second that. To test our hypothesis, I annouce that we're planning a BBQ this wknd somewhere in SLO before sunday. I need inputs ^_^ We also have a new piggie. For a viewing, please come over and try to climb over our huge pile of stuff and reach the cage. For more mental unstablitiy comments, please refer to my xanga.

2003-05-30T13:25:00.000-07:00

This shared blog is weird. You're all guinea pig obsessed weirdos. *cower*

Spotty demands that everybody watches the Yatta! video! Meow!

2003-05-24T00:31:00.000-07:00

hehehe... score..... hehehe.....

2003-05-22T19:15:00.000-07:00

sorry for interupting the matrix brouhaha but i just felt the need to mention the PeeWee's playhouse episode that I saw in class today. (yes, the class regularly shows peewee eps...) i don't really remember watching that show as a kid, but - watching it now....there is seriously a bit of sexual innuendo in it. It's HILARIOUS! for example: "the most beautiful woman in cartoon land" Miss Yvonne

2003-05-20T12:57:00.000-07:00

We saw the Matrix on the day it came out. There was almost no line (we went @ 2:00pm though) and it was good. HOWEVER...i thought there was too much: -fighting -sex -raving/dancing/etc. and not enough: -intelligence -deepness -thinking and weird thoughts. Can't wait for the next one! YAY. I thought this one catered to much to the average population, hence the emphasis on fighting and sex. What a

2003-05-17T13:46:00.000-07:00

Yeah, the Matrix was cool! Remember that part... the part where all the spoilers happened? That was cool.

2003-05-16T16:19:00.000-07:00

And so bob and I went crazy again last night.... it's been a while... We were first in line to watch the new Matrix... it was totally worth it... maybe i'll go see it again tonight... or tomorrow morning... i'm not about to do spoilers here, so tell me if you guys have seen it, then we can get a discussion going ^_^

2003-05-14T17:49:00.000-07:00

Stripey and Patchy wanna remind Bob and Pat to check out www.guinealynx.com for Whammy and Spotty. It's very very important. Lots of good medical information. Oh, and the good animal place in the bay area (los altos) has a page: http://www.adobe-animal.com/

hey, did you basket ever come back home?

2003-05-14T13:04:00.000-07:00

BTW, minna's mind scares me sometimes. or maybe all the time. Does anyone else get this feeling about minna? This shivery feeling... No, it's a different shivery feeling from the one I feel for Pat. haha.

2003-05-14T13:00:00.000-07:00

hehe. Orlando as in Legolas? haha. woooeee. He's quite something when he's an elf. It's just when he de-elfs that's not as spectacular. Liv Tyler is spectacular always.... Even if I saw her wearing a potato sack.

2003-05-13T21:50:00.000-07:00

Yay! gonna watch The Matrix: Reloaded tomorrow!!! so excited! There is no Spoon. and Orlando is hotter. ~_^ Teen Girl Squad 3!

2003-05-12T12:45:00.000-07:00

BTW, if you caught the Charmed Finale, did you have a problem understanding the episode? According to mia's xanga, she did. Am I smart or is she just dumb? www.xanga.com/meeyyah

2003-05-12T08:51:00.000-07:00

Angel rocked! So did Charmed. Crap, I can't wait for next season!!!! And there's Dawson's this week. I wonder who's gonna die. Oh NO! I just realized I missed the 90210 reunion b/c of Charmed. I wonder if they'll re-air that. I loved 90210. Keanu is so hot. We just saw the Matrix again on TV. Wow-za. Albeit not as good w/no hair, but man, when he got all pyscho on that suit's ass.... WOO EEE! "

2003-05-07T22:18:00.000-07:00

hey jh vocab to match the new keanu... pretty good i think ^_^ omg, Angel was great tonite! it seems more like a pilot though, i hope there's a next season...

2003-05-07T18:30:00.000-07:00

Me neither. I hope it rocks. Angel is a very good show. Fred really blossomed into a hottie, surprisingly. (Am I obsessed w/the verb hot today?) Fred should get together w/Wes. I think Gunn kinda sucks. Cordy sucks too. So does Connor, especially Connor. Hmm... i wonder how I can love this show so much...and think half of the main cast suck? I think the whole time Cordy was comatosed was great.

2003-05-07T17:11:00.000-07:00

MINE BABY! yeah.. ok.. anyway... can't wait till Angel tonight

2003-05-07T13:03:00.000-07:00

Heck, we all wishes! Now...is that we all wish: 1) to be someone's fiance/fiancee? 2) to be YOUR fiance/fiancee? I think I'm undecided between both of them. Things I want to watch during this finals month: 1) Matrix Reloaded. esp. for that hottie of a Neo. haha. I wonder where I stashed my Keanu album from jh. 2) X2. 3) Finding Nemo. Hunny says that this is gonna be one of my favorite movies,

2003-05-06T12:18:00.000-07:00

Ha! Bob wishes ^_^

2003-05-06T08:32:00.000-07:00

That's what I'm good for, Patty. Grossing you out and making you not want your stuff that's stolen back. It's a gift I've acquired from all the times I've been looted from. I'm very lootable, mostly b/c I'm a scattered person. Y'all can attest to that. Did I also make you not want to go to the bathroom in a public facility? I was re-reading Pat's latest xanga post and I misread finances as

2003-05-05T16:57:00.000-07:00

ok, you just made me not really wanting my basket back

2003-05-05T14:47:00.000-07:00

Angel rules. Except I wish they would stop showing that awful clip of Jasmine's face being all gross. Creeps me out every time! I can't wait for this wed's episode. I can't wait for John Doe and Alias to re-start. Those last episodes were GREAT. I just realized I watch a lot of TV. I would steal a laundry basket if it was really nice and comfy to carry. Like those 16 dollar laundry baskets. and.

2003-05-04T11:41:00.000-07:00

ok, seriously, who in hell steals a laundry basket?! can't wait to get my hands on that mofo..... ARGH!

2003-04-30T10:09:00.000-07:00

I just did a little calculation in my head that, from the moment I wake up to the end of watching Angel, I'd be up for 15 hours straight. 5 of which I'm on campus, and 4 at work. 1 hour watching Angel and 1 on transportation (driving and otherwise). That makes 11. The remaining 4 hours I have to do a bunch of other stuff. I have 5 tasks I need to do for school. The two readings are going to

alice=mean. i wanna smack her too. but don't tell her that. (actually, it's more of a verbal smack than a physical smack. it's more fun verbal smacking girls.) This does not mean, to all of you who did not attend hhs, that i think everyone from there is mean. it's just that the mean ones always come up! haha. maybe u can go back over ur old montclaire yrbooks and find the alcheck. he's the

2003-04-29T13:15:00.000-07:00

mmm...dayquil... guess who i saw in class to-day. Alice Tang. I think she must be a design major or something cause i've seen her in a bunch of my classes. but as usual, i dont converse with ex-homesteaders in davis. though thats mostly because i never talked to them out of class in h.s. so yah. and the name 'alcheck' sounds familiar, but not ringin a bell craig=agree with flo. hah yay! free

2003-04-28T13:24:00.000-07:00

things to watch tonight in my drug (not THOSE drugs!)-induced stupor: -jeopardy (i love that show, i feel effing smart when i actually know stuff or guess stuff right) -weird korean subtitled soap called yellow handerchief (very interesting as long as you can read) -charlie's angels (cameron makes me wanna wear little boy underpants and dance around on my bed and find two other girls to go "hey

2003-04-28T13:03:00.000-07:00

minna=your compositions are rather interesting. add a crapload of dayquil to that. and you've got some fun... watch the swirlies! :P

2003-04-28T13:00:00.000-07:00

craig= not cutie! :P sorry pat but i just don't see him in the light you do. he's not an uber-meanie though, unlike michael alcheck. minna, do you remember him? if i see him, i probably would kick him in his family jewels. oh well, if his offspring would be anything like him, we wouldn't want them anyway. he disappeared off somewhere, but then sr year, i saw a pic of winter formal or something

came across this earlier: "You know the world's gone mad when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the USA of arrogance and Zee Germans don't want to go to war!"

Ok everybody, sit back, relax and enjoy the following post. What does a pirate use to pay when he goes to a store? (Bucc - a - neers)...HAHAHAHA (I apologize for the previous joke...it was of bad taste, and taken from my Stats teacher today...however, it was better then him attempting to get the class to laugh everytime he said thirthsixths) Well, i finally decided to join the bloggers with a

btw, I think my enormous pig cage (though still smaller than other peoples) is building me some large muscles! lifting a 2x3 cube cage w/a 1x3 upstairs is rather heavy. Go florance and her big muscles! whoop whoop! then again, maybe it's cuz i'm originally as weak as a little pansy of a jh girl. just a thought.

i hate people who switch the lab computer settings to whatever foreign language they want...and they don't switch it back. lousy fobs. no offense to the fobs who do change it ofcourse. (not that there are that many) that's my rant of the day. sorry for making this oh-so-cheery blog depressing... to cheer u up...i will... make some g.pig cookies. you can eat them too. but i'm not sure how yummy
