Summer's Shenanigans

Shoemoney did it, so I wanna do it too! I just bought 100 pixels at the MillionDollarHomePage.com. Can you see me?! I bought position 82 across, 50 down...Very interesting concept. This 21 year old kid has already made over $900,000 with a single page!

Today, I received a very professional looking letter from Domain Registry of America. Inside was a "Domain Name Expiration Notice" along with the option to renew my domain for 1 year ($25), 2 years ($40) or 5 years ($85) as well as the option to pick up mydomainname.net and mydomainname.org for $40 each for a 2 year period. There is also a stub at the bottom of this letter to fill in your credit card info and a return envelope address to:

Domain Registry of America
2316 Delaware Avenue #266
Buffalo, NY 14216-2687

So, that doesn't sound so sneaky except that my domains are registered through omnis and I only pay $8 a year...BUT, to the unexperianced webmaster, this letter from Domain Registry of America would absolutely look like a bill and they would probably pay it.

Pretttttyyyyy sneaky! And I'm not saying that Domain Registry of America are crooks, I'm sure they will register your domain, it's just an interesting way to pick up customers. I'm sure they are probably making a killing doing this too!

How cool is this voodoo knife block?! I saw it online almost a year ago, but it wasn't available in the USA until just recently, so I bought it for my boyfriends birthday. The Voodoo knife display is designed by Raffaele Iannello who is an Italian designer, but when it was imported into the USA they changed the name from "Voodoo Knife Display" to "The Ex". That was an interesting surprise when I pulled it out of the box, since it was a gift for my boyfriend (I promise I wasn't hinting at anything, Stefan ;)...). It was totally one of those gifts where I knew he would either love it, or think, "WTF is this?!". Luckly, I think he really does like it and the knives were way better quality then I was expecting. Score!

I thought that since I'm old (27), I should look into some sort of investment. Everything else looked boring and slow to make money (yes, I have the attention span of a...huh? What was that?!), so I figured that I would buy some stocks. Do I know anything about the stock market? Hell no! Am I a gambler? You betcha! SO I signed up for an account at ShareBuilder.com and bought some shares of Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA) & Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI). It's been a couple of weeks and I've already made 12.5% on my investment. I am a stock market guru!! Oh wait, maybe that's just a little beginners luck...Any how, it's fun to look forward to check your stocks every day to see if they went up.

GO ARNA!! GO SIRI!!! Momma needs a new pair of True Religion Jeans! ;)

I'm in the middle of moving my home and business to the SICKEST house ever, which is why I havn't blogged lately, but still, I think you should PIMP MY BLOG!

Dude, what the fuck kind of budget plastic surgeon did Heidi Fleiss go to?! Didn't getting bitchslapped by Tom Sizemore fatten her lips enough? Apparently not because it looks like Heidi found a coupon for the world worst plastic surgeon and had him pump WAY too much collegan into her lips.

I decided I needed a change in the hair department and after going back and forth on what I wanted, I turned the decision over to Renee Africa at Bakerloo Salon. This is what happened:

Would you rather:

Pay $15.85 and have a pair of shoes that don't quite fit, OR would you rather pay $18.85 and have nothing?

The reason I ask is because I had a customer buy a pair of shoes off of eBay for $9.99 + $5.85 shipping. Then she decided that she wanted to return them for a refund of the purchase price because they did not fit. SO, she paid $13 to ship them back to me, so she could get a refund of $9.99. I know that's kind of confusing to follow, but this is not quantum physics, people! She would have been $3 richer AND had a pair of shoes to show for it, if she simply did NOT return the shoes! How can people be so stupid?!

I don't know what it is, but I tend to be the recipient of some rude awakening. I'm pretty tolerant of the constuction workers next door that wake me up at 7am every morning, even when they crash into my car, causing $1700 in damage...(But that's an entire different subject).

So, 1st I was woken up by Monkey puking on my back, then someone tried to kill me and this morning I was awakened by a different kind of ruckus. I didn't know what woke me up, but something happened inside my room and I was all of a sudden awake. I looked around and Kuta (my dog) was looking at me with a confused look on his face. Kind of like something just woke him up too, but he had no clue either. I stumbled out of bed to let Kuta into the back yard, like I do every morning and stumbled back into my room to see if I could go back to sleep. Before I hopped back into bed, I decided to look around to see if I could see anything out of the ordinary that would have woken me up. Huge pile of laundry that needs to be folded? Check. Dog hair on the floor? Check. Weird piece of abolone shell on the floor? Check. Chandelier above the bed? Check....Wait a second...Weird piece of abolone shell on the floor?! What the hell IS that thing. As I go for a closer inspection (I'm blind, what can I say), I notice that its one of the bigger fish from my fish tank! Good old Frankie the Fish was motionless, cold and his eyes were fixed. Obviously a corpse. As I scooped him up and headed to the bathroom for a proper fish burial, I realized that, wait a second....fish are always cold with eyes fixed! So I dropped him back in the tank to see if he was alive and he was still kickin'.

After a bit of forensic work, it looks like Frankie the Fish got a bunch of speed by swimming laps really fast around the tank and some how launched out of the tank, made it through the 5"x5" opening in the top, hit an empty gallon jug of water on his way down and that was the ruckus that woke me up...
