I've decided to make this into two parts. There is more to tell later on today! :D

Hey guys!

Just on a quick note, I will be out of town from Aug. 14th to 19th. First stop is Colorado Springs and lastly, Vegas to get a spa treatment, gamble and enjoy the Star Trek Experience one last time before it closes. *tears up*

Sooooo... bye! 

PS: I'll be sure to get you somethin', Mrs. Picard! ^_~

First off, Happy 4th of July a day early! Enjoy celebrating white man's independence, for I will be going to the desert tomorrow for a night of family fellowship. :D

And the hunk of the month is...

Never type in 'Cobra Commander Sex' on Google.

First off, I bought my first new car yesterday! The finance manager only took 4 hours to get us into a brand new car! I was so pleased. XD 

It's a turquiose Chevy Aveo LS Sedan. I get 32 MPG on the highway, which is VERY good. I love Chevys. They are great on gas and I zipped in and out of traffic last night. My mom and I decided to take a drive down the PCH and see the sunset and the beach. BTW, all the RV's parked on the beach were all displaying the 'Jolly Roger'. YA! Go road pirates. XD

I got home last night and parked it in the garage because my cats have a tendency to sleep on the car and I fear of little punks getting a 'smart' idea if I left it out. So after kissing it goodnight, I headed in and watched some television, but man did my legs hurt. I popped one of my useful pain pills and headed early to bed. Those pills give me WEIRD dreams.

First, the dream starts out with me as a double agent for GI Joe and Cobra Command... Yeah, it begins already. A fellow GI and I are scoping out the new Cobra Command base, which really reminds me of a shopping mall. LOL! I kept thinking of Spaceballs the entire time. Then a group of my OWN friends and my partner, a unknown GI Joe, all sit at the Cobra Mess Hall and were just relaxing and eating our meal when... Dr. Mindbender comes to our table and introduces himself. He askes who our friends are and I explained they were just debriefed for classified assignments. He actually shook all their hands. My friends were like, "OMG! I can't believe we're in Cobra Command."

Yeah, they thought they were in some sort of amusement park, which made it so funny. After that, we did some walking around, but my partner and I were sent to a special Cobra assembly. Apparently the Cobra caught some GI Joes and were using them like the Romans used men for sport. They were also innocent children in there, of course my impulses kicked in and I saved them. Of course, my cover was blown and I had to hide, but Cobra Commander found me and dude, he's strong! Before I knew it, I was on the ground and he was beatin' and ... *shakes head* You can't rape the willing, right? LOL!!!

Soon my partner comes up behind him and knocks him out. Instead of asking me if I was alright, he asked, "I thought you were stronger than that."

I deadpanned and pointed out. "Hey, I'm beaten and was raped, help me or drop dead..."

We got out, but then that's when the dream kinda went downhill and made absolutely no sense, but my god. I got up from bed and do my nether-regions hurt. Stupid Cobra Commander! He was too rough and possibly too 'big'. *SNORT* My god, I need to get ready for church. LOL! I need forgiveness.

Yeah, I was kinda stumped myself. After my brother's death, all I wanted was to preserve the memory while I lived here. Then, a few days ago, we got a letter from the big, private, Catholic high school across the street, asking residents if they were willing to give up their property so they could expand the school.

First off, I cried! I mean, I bawled so hard that I fell asleep in the middle of crying. To move away from the only home I've ever known and then asked if we were willing to relocate. The man was nice and explained that he understood how we felt. It wouldn't be easy, but given time, we might like the idea of starting fresh in a new neighborhood and living in a possibly bigger, better home!

So, after a lengthy and argumentive talk about me being the stubborn woman with a zillion cats, I accepted his card and my mother and I decided to 'discuss' the matter deeper. We want to make sure this is a right move for us. We just don't want to be too hasty in our decision. They also said we wouldn't have a mortage, which would be very nice. The home we live in now is paid off and is a convienice for us because we both work and make good money, but living in So. California is a bit pricey. Especially the home we live in now is nice and spacious, but it holds our good memories. My back yard is my haven in the summertime. I have a tree back there and a canopy of long, lucious ivy that hangs like a mystical pirate's cove. My home is my paradise! I know I can come home and just relax. No worries here, just making sure bills are paid up and making sure property taxes are paid annually. We're pretty much in a good, comfortable situation now. But I find myself a bit interested. I felt so guilty for being interested in the first place. I was so against it and all of a sudden, I've been lured by the Prince of Darkness to sign on a dotted line. O_o

*snort* You know how Native Americans feel about signing papers, right? Yeah. We've been shifted around so many damn times you'd wonder why we're annoyed with the government and stuff. *sigh* Alas...

So, what do you think? Start fresh and move into a bigger home with a den and a bigger bathtub? I love my home, don't get my wrong, but sometimes change can be good for people. I know Steven would want us to let him go and we could move on to a better life with no hassle of a preppy school moving our trashcans or tossing Starbucks and McDonalds food wrappers on the sidewalks or blocking our driveways when they park their Mercedes on our street... but the thoughts of them digging up the trees my parents planeted for my brother and myself and bulldozing the little house my mother grew up in makes me cry. This isn't a house, it's a home! It will always be home to me.

What should we do? We're praying and hoping for the best.

It's that time again! Let us gaze upon the majesty of... *drumroll*

I've decided to post up a picture of a fictional character once a month of characters I find extremely attractive. And let me tell you now, I'm VERY weird and diverse in my taste in men. LOL!

Hey everyone. I will be changing my AOL screen name back to Jukesette. I'm getting bored with PurrboxAsia.

Thanks.
