evil amex strikes again!
2002-02-19
fuck another.com!!!
on a lighter note (mainly) i really got my wardrobe and stuff today. yey. ok, so maybe i should say we're very unlucky with stuff like that and usually they lose our address or something so we have to call the companies and ask what happened to our furniture and then after rearranging everything we get our stuff a week later or so.
*yawns* i think i'm going to bed now. i'm visiting my dad tomorrow and that's gonna be exhausting. but i've found something good to get the whole thing started. tomorrow i'm gonna go to this real expensive chocolate/candy shop and buy him a huge box of chocolates to say thanks for helping me with the car and hopefully he's gonna take it as a sign of how mature i've become. (he's complained about me not inviting him for a coffee or just casually doing something like that from time to time before) and then we'll have a real talk. no, i'm not trying to 'buy' him. it's not about the money spending thing it's more about me showing that i thought of saying 'thanks' somehow. and i'm up for spending the nite creating something 'cheap but special' for him now. *g*
stay beautiful!
the suckers are charging their members now. which means that 18 of my 30 or so e-mail addies won't exist anymore in exactly 3 days. that sucks so much i could die! seriously, what's this thing with the internet getting more and more expensive? you don't get anything for free anymore. �24!!!!! they want �24 from me. for what? for NOTHING! i mean, their silly server never works anyway and it's more of a 'buy our shirts and domains and while you're at it...BUY US!' site than an e-mail service. but i still loved my addies. and my 'my little porn star' colour theme. *sob* PLUS they had www.nancyboy.co.uk as a second url to reach their site and this just seemed so hilarious to me when i found out and i'm gonna miss typing that url into my browser everyday. you know, i'd actually pay the fucking �24 per year but that's the 2nd crap about it. they don't accept amex. NOONE ACCEPTS AMEX!!! but the only credit card my bloody mother owns is an amex card!!! and she just won't change it to visa tho there are at least 12740128 reasons why that would be a good idea! i mean...almost no online shop / fanclub accepts amex. most stores in foreign countries do but in most european countries we can use our own currency now and the few times we go to a non-european or non-euro country can be counted on one finger. and we never use it in shops here in germany, either, because my mom owns an EC card too and i never buy anything THAT expensive myself so i pay it cash. so why amex, goddammit???
prob is, i had to get up at 8.30am cos they said they'd deliver between 8.30am and 4pm. well, needless to say they got here at 3.30pm. so i'm quite tired. but happy. i luv my new wardrobe. it's soooo pretty. it even has a mirror. i had completely forgotten about that. hehe. i was packing things in and out of it the whole day. my new shelf pissed me off a little cos we had to put it together ourselves for some reason. it wasn't hard to understand how to do it at all. this time the practical side of it was the biggest nightmare about it. *lol* it was actually the first time i saw my mom get scared of me and leave the room cos i was yelling 18+ things and getting really violent on the poor shelf 
but as soon as she had finally left me alone my grandpa came in and he's the biggest klutz i know. he wouldn't even understand when i'm angry if i punched him in the face. nor does he recognize any other sort of feeling. neither did he this time. so he just went on annoying me with his advise and fiddlich around here and there. gawwd. but in the end it worked and it looks supercool. it's not made of wood like most shelves but iron so it looks quite spacy. i'm gonna buy a shiny, sparkly, glittery sort of tissue and wrap it around it in several places to give it an even nicer look. oooh...and i finally put my infamous skugga lamp up (elvis bless ikea) which is basically a little lamp were you can put different plastic sheets with pictures in front of a lightbulb so it looks like one of those signs indicating the way to a certain place or exit signs or so. there are like 10 or 12 different pictures plus one /-picture so if you for example put the mobile phone picture in and this one over it you get 'no mobile phones' as a meaning or so. *g*
and i put all my luffly raccoons on my shelf and there are sooo many. it looks like a raccoon orgy 
(and mariam if you're reading this: yes, your raccoon is there, too. he's in front row!)
so, let's wait and see how it turns out. i have to survive a looong day of work first, anyway.
