okay, so i know it's been a long time since i've posted, and here's why, i have another journal, some of you know this but what you don't know is that it's become my primary journal and i only ever check this one once a week or so, whereas i check that one once or twice a day and post to it much more often, usually on a regular basis(though lately i've been kinda busy, but it's still much more often than this one) and so the time has come to be rid of this journal, and so i'm going to give you all a link to my latest post to my other journal(which you should read) and i'm going to add you all as friends on that one too, so that if you want, you can keep up with my life, i won't be checking this journal again, but i don't think i'll delete it either, at least not right away, i'll simply ignore it completely

also, for those of you wondering, i moved out about two months ago, which is a wonderful thing, and am living with Ashlee, we've got a nice little place in garden home and you're welcome to visit anytime

one last thing, my name is Summer, i have no reason to hide it now, so i'm not going to, and soon i'm going to start showing myself a lot more openly, regardless of how i'm presenting my name is still Summer and that is what i'd prefer to be called, thanks, now here's the link to the post you have to read http://pink-miniskirt.livejournal.com/93010.html and now i'm going to go friend all of you on there

*hugs*

To all transpersons and allies: CRITICAL ISSUE

The story below needs wide, WIDE, WIDE dispersal!! Send the link to everyone you know!! This in my opinion, is an extremely significant story, that needs to spread as far and as wide as the transgender community can spread it, and as quickly as possible. The issue has a very short shelf life. It needs national and international exposure. This lovely transwoman, who has an excellent 14 year track record with her employer (which is admitted by her supervisors and all involved at the City of Largo, Florida) is being fired specifically, directly, and unashamedly, because she is trans. This is a horrible story. Pressure needs to be brought, and it can only happen if it becomes a major story. We can make that happen by spreading it on the Internet, as far and as wide as we can, and FAST!!!!!!!

okay, i know it's been a little while since i posted but this isn't really an update, but that will come in the next day or so *i promise* because there is much happiness to tell of, this is a request, specifically a request for a digital camera, if any of you have an extra i'd love to buy it from you or if you want to give it to me that's cool too, but i need one, my short term needs are simply the use of one however, i need to take pictures of my jewelry so that i can put them up on ebay and sell some so i'll be getting money, and once i've got money then i'll be able to buy a digital camera, hopefully from one of you for much less than new, so, if any of you have a digital camera that can get good detail on something fairly small then let me know, it doesn't even ever have to leave your sight, you can come over and help me take the pictures and then load them onto my computer and be done with it, if you can help with this that would be amazing, also if there are job openings at anyone's place of employment and it's something i might be able to do let me know and maybe you can put in a good word for me
thanks!
*hugs*

aparently today is Global Orgasm For Peace Day.
i had to share that, i really really did
enjoy it, because it only comes once a year

It's that time again, the time when the broke silversmith offers huge discounts to all his friends on jewelry so that he can then go out and buy them presents. That's right, any jewelry you buy from me during the holiday season will be marked down for two reasons, because I love you and because I am flat broke and need money to buy presents for other people. I would give a flat % discount but that would make me do math so instead I'll just give you a dicount based on pretty much nothing, for example if you're interested in a necklace that costs $25 I'm likely to give it to you for $15, or if it was $80 I'm likely to give it to you for $60.
So give me a call or email me or whatever if you're interested and we'll set up a time to get together and look at stuff.
Happy Holidays

...and Keanu Reeves as Claude the sheepdog...

okay, so i had the bazaar at Garden Home Rec Center today, it was pretty good, i sold a decent amount and had a good time, saw a few people, was very amused all day too, one of the girls in the booth across from me had a huge crush on me, but of course she was about 15 or 16, so that wouldn't be a good idea, especially since i'll probably never see her again, but it was amusing anyhow, meow... that is about all i think, now i'm going to sleep, goodnight

okay, i think this was meant to be incredibly erotic but knowing you it'll more likely be incredibly silly, though if you do feel a need to be erotic don't let me stop you

okay, so today was awesome, i woke up kind of late and decided not to kill myself trying to get to my keyboarding class so i relaxed a bit and just went to writing, got there about 20 minutes early and spent the time chatting to a couple of the people in the class about how much of a pain the teacher is, Crystal pointed out that he says 'ok' every other word, i didn't believe it at first but i listened to him for the whole class and at 3:00 i started a tally, between 3:00 and 3:35 he said 'ok' 133 times, 133!!! that's about once every 15 seconds, the only reason i don't say that he punctuates his sentences with 'ok is that he starts half of them with it, now i understand why he's so hard to understand, he's checking on his progress more than he's actually talking, "so i want you to do this and this, ok? and to do that you'll have to do this, ok? ok, so now do that, ok? what i mean is, ok well, it's like this, ok? ok?" so that was interesting, and it gave me a headache, i'm going to take a count of when he says 'um' because he said that every time he didn't say 'ok' "so, um, i want you to do this and, um, this, ok? and, um, to do that you'll have to do this, ok? ok, um, so now, um, do that, ok? what i mean is, um, ok well, it's like this, ok? um, ok?" ok?
then after i got out of there i ran into a couple of people i know so i stopped to chat and then went to get my new bus pass for next month and chatted with the lady who works in there, all in all it was a friendly, happy day, which is odd for me, i liked it, it amused me, and now i'm having a sammich, which also amuses me, meowing panda

bloody hell, i'm hungry, why am i hungry, i'm never hungry, and now it's the middle of the night and i'm hungry, bah, i'm going to have to find something to eat, bah, why am i always hungry at odd hours and never when i should be? *grumble grumble*

okay, so getting up at 5 am to go shopping didn't work out, mostly because my mother forgot and i didn't want to go in the first place so i didn't wake her up, then around 1 i got a call from Michelle to hang out at the mall so i went down there and hung out with her for a while and then with Danielle and after they'd all left me i went and started some christmas shopping, which mostly involved me looking at stuff and wondering who i need to get things for and what i need to get them, it's good though, i found a bunch of really cheap cookbooks so i got three of them for my mother and all together they were about $10 less than any one of them usually would be, so that was awesome, it gets her out of the way without any real thought, and then i looked at some other stuff and came home and got yelled at for not eating, it was fun, that is, the part where i was out of the house and away from the bitch was fun, coming home not so much, and later i've got to put together a powerpoint for my business class and work on my paper for writing, BAH! also there needs to be a way to lock the comments on an entry so that the person who posted it can't see it so that we can all confer about who's getting him what

okay, so my mother wants me to give her a list of what i want for chiristmas and i'm coming up blank, so if any of you can think of any thing that you think i'd want please tell me so i can tell her
thank you

okay, it appears i'm being dragged out for black friday, so all of you will be giving me your christmas lists, each and every one of you, i'd like to get something for everyone who reads this, but if you don't tell me what you want i can't get you anything, and if you don't tell me what you want because you don't want me to get you anything(Ian) then i will spend inordinant amounts of money trying to make you happy with shallow gifts, so just tell me what you want, i dont care how just do it
NOTE:there are two of you who have already done this, Sarah and Cat, you two both get a gold star

i was going to post a ransom survey on here but then i got lazy, i just wanted you to know that this is where i would have put it

here's another group of people who need to be bashed over the head with a new york phone directory for about 6 minutes, these fully grown twins who wear matching outfits, and worse still the ones who wear matching ugly outfits, you'd think that they'd realize that these things do not look good, they wouldn't even need a mirror to know who horrible they look, and i do want to be very clear here, i'm not talking about little girls whose parents dress them, in those cases it's the parents who should be slapped repeatedly with a large kitchen appliance, i'm talking about the ones who are over the age of 18, who have no excuses, under 18 parents legally still have influance(technically anyway, so they could be blamed) but over 18 there is no excuse whatsoever, it's a simple process, wake up, shower, get dressed, look at your twin, if you've picked the same thing to wear one of you go change, just one, maybe flip a coin to decide who but one of you needs to be wearing something else or here's an idea, don't have matching wardrobes, when you go to the store to buy clothes don't get two of everything, get one, that way we an avoid this problem altogether, and just one more thing on this subject, do something about your hair, don't have the same hairstyle, maybe get it cut differently, like one of them could shave her head and the other dye her hair bright pink, so we know which one's which, i'm just trying to be helpful here ladies and gentlemen, just trying to help

okay, went to the gemshow today and it was amazing, i spent way more money than i had any right to but it'll be worth it if i can get to work and use some of the stones before my next show, i got some great stuff and of course i got it at amazing prices because i am both cheap and broke so i tend to find great deals, one guy had AMAZING deals on his stuff and i got him to give me a lower price and then an even lower one, so that was very happy, and i got some other awesome deals, one lady i bought from i only got a couple things from and they were on clearance and then half off and still not an amazing price, but reasonable, then i came home and ate breakfast, and now i'm typing this, and yeah, that's pretty much my day, meow?

okay, the bazaar today sucked pretty bigtime, made crap, had to deal with idiots most of the day, the venders to my left were kind of fun, but the booth on my right was selling wreathes for the girls basketball team, but it wasn't the girls on the team selling them(heaven forbid) it was their mothers, and i'm sorry if you have a mother like this or think that they should be like this but i heard these ladies talking about how they got into it and the one was saying 'oh yeah, well they couldn't find anyone for the morning shift so my daughter volenteered me, i had to reorganize my whole schedule for it but what are going to do' 'oh yeah i know, i was thinking about going back to work but then my son wanted to get into sports so i couldn't' WHAT THE FUCK!!!!??? what is wrong with these idiots, i can understand doing things for your child but there are limits, and your child saying that you'll do something while you're busy without consulting you is way past the line, it's past a couple lines, if i pulled that shit and actually expected them to do it i'd be living on the streets, bah /rant then across from me was a guy selling games, not homemade games or anything like that but educational board games of some sort, not something that belongs at a craft fair, and next to him were two platinum blonds who seemed to have the combined IQ of an eggplant(i apologize to any eggplants i may have offended) and yeah... tomorrow i'm going to the gem show downtown, if anyone else is going let me know and we can hang out, or if you think it'd be a fun thing to do let me know, or if you just want an excuse to see me that's okay too just let me know and we'll go down there, and yeah... i think i'm done now, maybe... i think... ESKIM-ORK
oh, and i just remembered the other minirant i had, why can't the people who have crushes on me ever be my age? or in the same state as me? it seems that everyone who's even mildly interested in me is either 30+, in another state, or 13, the 13 thing just happened the once so far as i know, one of the other venders daughters was at the show today and she was looking at a pair of my earings and she SO had a crush on me, and my thought was 'hey this'd be really cool if i was 5 years younger' you know what i mean?

oh boy... i get to spend the next week alone with my mother while my father is in California, HELP ME!!! i'm serious, we'll kill each other, or i'll kill her, which wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the whole 'illegal' thing, so yeah... oh, and here's a link to an article you all have to read, because it makes me happy, i don't know how to make it say nice things but if i weren't too lazy to find out it'd say 'George Bush vs. Witchdoctor'
