Alyssa's ramblings...

Take the 100 Acre Personality Quiz!

I am SO ANGRY!!! Jody from work (a guy with a girl's name) has been saying racist comments, and it really annoys me. Kate told a story about this guy that was almost set alight by three people, and Jody goes "Are they black?" and Kate said no, and then he said "Well, I was going to say if they were, they probably used metho." Then he went on about how black people get drunk on paint thinner, etc. My blood was boiling! I have only been this angry 3 or 4 other times in my life, seriously. So I sent him an email: So what's the difference between getting drunk on that and getting drunk on other stuff? It's just as bad either way, and you brag about getting drunk so you can't talk. I'm friends with 'black people' and they don't even drink, one of them is actually a really good Christian, so I don't appreciate those comments. And he started going "I only said most of them do that, not all of them." and how he's friends with black people too. And I said "So you're racist against your friends!" Some friend he is, hey. Flaming heck I'm so angry! And he said "I'm just talking about reality!" >:( And "I don't want to get into this with you" and I said "Well, if you didn't say things like that you wouldn't have to!" And he always swears under his breath (every time he gets a phone call, which is one of the main parts of his job), which really pees me off. I'm gonna bash him up one of these days!!!

He never says "sorry", either. We had an argument a few months ago, and I proved him wrong, so he admitted he was wrong (after some coaxing from me), but he didn't say sorry. I told him to, but he said he didn't feel he had to. and this time, he should have been sorry for hurting my feelings, but he obviously wasn't. I'm passionately against racism, and when you say something like what he said, you're obviously going to hit a nerve with someone. So he should have kept his mouth shut, or at least felt sorry that he opened it.

Melinda (from my office) is so nice! She was asking whether I was OK, 'cos when I was angry she came out and I was a bit short with her, just giving one-word answers, so she knew something was wrong. She was genuinely concerned, and I'm grateful for her friendship.

Kate's nice, also. She was joining in a bit with the racism (not as full-on as Jody, though), but she bought a chocolate cake in today for morning tea, and she's going to drop me home from work almost all next week (I catch the bus to work and usually get picked up by mum in the evening, but mum's on her honeymoon next week!), which I'm grateful for.

So those two make up for the idiocy of Jody. :)

MOOD: Hungry... need food! Hang on, I'll go get some.

Ugh, I've decided to have one of my gross cheese slices. :) I still have about 6 slices left in the pack, so I can't let them go to waste! It's all good, I can suffer through them, I guess. Actually, it wasn't too bad! Not too bad at all. I don't know what I was complaining about the other day! Oh well.

So, Brodie got voted out of the Big Brother house yesterday. I liked him, but he was getting a bit boring, so I'm glad he went. And the other two nominees were a couple (Marty & Jess), so I would have hated them to be broken up. :) Therefore... MOOD: Happy!

Actually, I'm pretty much nonchalant at work, just going with the flow, not really in any mood at all. Sometimes I'll get really bored, like almost falling asleep, can't keep my eyes open, sliding down in my chair, desperately in need of a caffeine boost (Coke, not coffee) bored, but that's only once or twice a week. I avoid it most times by going on the 'net, to Fan Forum or to Bloggerise here.

Anyhow, I'll go now. See ya, kids!

OK, I'm going to add a MOOD thing to each post, just for fun. Going to try to use as many big words as possible! Or not so big. Y'know, whatever.

MOOD: Delighted!

Did you know that there are still 11 episodes of Gilmore Girls left in this series? Cool, hey!!! It's officially over in America, but here in Oz, it's still going strong. YEAH! It seems as if it's been going on forever, probably because we had 2 series' running back to back. I love GG! It's my favourite show. :)

That's all I wanted to say. Buh-bye again!

Can I just say something? What am I thinking, of course I can. Anyway, I went browsing through people's blogs just then, and so many weird and wonderful things have been done with them! All I know how to do it type these messages... and that's about it. Oh, oh, I know how to do bold text and italics, and post a link but that's all!!! Where are the weird, wonderful thingies?!?! :( Sad Alyssa. LOL Don't worry, I'll get over it. See ya.

Blogging blogsticles! I don't even know what a blog is, but it's all good, I have one now. So... oh yeah.





what's your battle cry? |
mewing.net | merchandise!

Ahh, you say! So do I. So did I, I mean, when I saw this. MEEP! OK, I'm gonna say that all the time now! No problem. :)

I'm at work (on my lunch hour, of course *ahem*) and I'm bored as a pie. Believe me, pies are really bored! Sure. Good stuff.

*chewing thoughtfully* Hmm, this cheese slice is really gross. Oh well, I'll eat it anyway.

I'm going to do another one of those testy thingies now.





because i thought this picture was pretty, laura of mewing.net told me this: "you enjoy sitcoms, popcorn, horses, and perhaps surfboarding. you lost your virginity either very early (under the age of eleven) or very late (over the age of thirty). you take politics and religion very seriously, and when you were a kid, you had a penchant for getting lost in shopping malls and/or amusement parks. your favorite color is most likely blue or green, and you are terrified of spiders."
whatever will laura tell you??


Very... interesting. I think another quiz in in order! Here we go...





take the cher test.


and go to mewing.net. because laura isn't cher.


Aaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhh! Noooooooooo! *hides face in shame*

In light of this recent discovery, I must go and de-Cher myself.

Buh-bye!
