this entry is public because i want people to know:
freecreditreport.com is a fucking SCAM.
i decided to check my credit report recently, since my parents have been nagging me about it for quite some time. i didn't expect it to be perfect, but i figured i should at least know what it is, and what it's saying about me. i'd seen a billion commercials about freecreditreport.com and also read quite a few reviews in magazines, citing it for a FREE credit report check service. i went to the website, filled out the information that was marked necessary, and clicked the button to get my free report. my report was inacurate, saying i owed money to lowe's, which is obviously untrue. my balance on my lowe's card has been zero for quite some time, and i'd be the first to know if lowe's cards were going to start charging any fees for having the card.
today, i went to check my bank account online to see if my plane ticket money had cleared through. and there's a charge for $14.95 to "CIC*Triple Advantage 18500 Von Karman Avenu 8" listed. i was working the date it was entered in, and had no clue where the charge was from. i googled "CIC*Triple Advantage 18500 Von Karman Avenu 8" and found that it was part of "freecreditreport.com." i never authorized any payments for any services, was sure to un-checkmark any boxes asking for additional services, etc.
called the bank, but there's nothing they can do from their end. i called freecreditreport.com and was told that i'd signed up for a membership with them, as well as a bunch of additional stuff. i did NOT sign up for anything other than the basic free credit check advertized on their site. they said the membership fee was nonrefundable, but that they would take me off their records, delete any 'membership' i had. i'm terrified of what these people might do with my personal information.
i urge you-- do NOT go to freecreditreport.com. simply by checking your credit once, they will sign you up for a monthly membership, costing fifteen dollars a month. if you've signed up with a credit card you don't often use/check the balance on, it might go unnoticed for a while.
be careful.

It's that time again!
I'm getting an early start this year for the Light The Night Lymphoma/Leukemia Awareness Walk. If you didn't already know, I did this walk last year and raised over 150 dollars. This year, I want to raise over 200. And since I have an early start, I'm sure I can do it. The walk this year is in Binghamton, NY at the NYSEG Stadium. If you'd like to walk with me, let me know! You can register to walk at any of the walk locations at the website http://www.lightthenight.org . If you'd just like to donate, you can do so at my fundraising page: http://www.active.com/donate/ltnCNY/2140_supersandoz
Thanks in advance!

Dear Light The Night Participant,
On behalf of The Central New York Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, we would like to express our deepest thanks and appreciation for your participation in the 2006 Light The Night Walk!
Because of volunteers like you, this year's Walk was one of the most successful ever. At the Southern Tier walk, held on October 12th at Broome Community College, we raised close to $50,000! This money will help further our mission: to find a cure for leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and Hodgkins's disease and to better the lives of patients and their families.
We hope to see you at next year's Light The Night event. We're here to help answer any questions you have about Light The Night and the Society. Please feel free to call or email Kristin Hennessey at (800) 690-8944.
Thanks again for your support!
Kindest Regards,
Kristin

The Light The Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's nationwide walk to raise awareness and funds to cure leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
I'm participating in the walk in honor of all individuals who are battling blood cancer, specifically a woman by the name of Donna, who I met while working on the Oncology floor as a unit clerk at the Robert Packer Hospital. These people are the real heroes, and we need your support to help accelerate cures and give hope to patients and their families. Although research is responsible for increasing survival rates for these diseases, the battle is far from over. Did you know that:
*Every five minutes, someone in this country is diagnosed with blood cancer: Every ten minutes, someone loses the fight.
*Leukemia causes more deaths than any other cancer among children.
*Lymphomas are the most common blood cancers.
*The myeloma survival rate is only 32 percent.
http://www.active.com/donate/ltnCNY/1976_supersandoz
Look! I'm only 34 bucks away from my goal of $150! So...basically, I'm whoring myself out to you guys again. Though, this time, I'm going to offer a bit of something in return.
I will give you pictures! Want the fullsize to an icon of mine? (Note: This applies only to icons that I did not swear up and down never to give out the fullsizes to. Their rules, not mine.) Make a donation, and tell me the icon, I'll do what I can.
I will write you a fic! Dreamed of reading a Ray/Bob fic involving whipped cream and tutus? Really want to see someone pair William Beckett with a slug? Redneck!Pete Wentz? Whatever you want, name it and I will do the best I can. For a small donation, of course. ;)
Want me to grab my cellphone and call your great Aunt Martha and sing Happy Birthday to her? Want me to wash your car? Would you like a virtual tour of my apartment? Want to know my deep dark secrets? Daily weather forecasts? Homemade chocolate chip cookies? (They're my specialty!)
So if there's something I've mentioned that sounds good to you, or even something I haven't mentioned that doesn't involve me setting myself on fire, let me know! Grab your credit cards (if you have to use someone else's, get their permission first, kthx!) and make a donation at:

i have the print on my wall to match.
so while fucking around on the interwentz, i came across a yousendit for something by the name of remember maine, and all these comments saying "OMFG IT'S AMAZING!" and whatnot. so i downloaded it, and then did my research. apparently, it's the beckettmonster before the academy is..? i'm still not exactly sure of timing and all that. either way, i kinda really like it. i don't know. it's making me happy at the moment, kthx.
i made a bunch of new icons today and uploaded a few of them. i have the most amazing keywords. i stole them from RP.
( rp babbleCollapse )
today would be a good day to get writing again.

hi, random.
so today was somewhat cool. annie's in town! she stopped by here, which is RAD. we went to walmart, and annie participated in one of her favorite things: buying me random stuff. today, i got metallic gel pens for old times, pop tarts, and a box of candy. :D muahaahaha... oh, and while driving by a church, annie looks at the statue of mary and goes "hey mary, how art thou?" and i go "sup god?" it made us laugh for a good 10minutes. we're dorks. oh, and went to burger king. and got the EXACT SAME THING only i got cheese. :) i'm telling you---dorks.
my cat is being the sweetest thing ever today. he's all cuddly and nice. i think maybe he's sick. he keeps sneezing and making little coughing noises. it's kinda cute, but i'm getting a bit worried. he hasn't attacked me at all today. he even let me HOLD him earlier. weird...
so apparently, i am not getting as much sugar in my system without all the soda. i've cut back so much---still drink it when i go out and whatnot---but i don't buy the 2liter bottles anymore just to have around. and i wake up at like 10am, and by 9pm, i'm ready for bed. it's the weirdest thing. i try making myself stay up, but it's tricky.
so i'm WAITING. josh told me to wait a few minutes. it's been like half an hour. :/ he's so weird.
tomorrow is "holy crap clean the kitchen" day. no seriously, it is.
it's also LAUNDRY DAY!
i'm running out of things to say. and i'm running out of the energy to say them.
maybe i'll just go to bed.

if you ever come here. if you ever come to see how i am, just know that i am. should you ever check back to see how i'm doing, just know that i'm doing. i think it best if i keep things the way they are. because you know me. because you know part of me says okay. because you know you have that power. as the prodigal son character that i always let come home. i can't let you come home now. you dropped me, remember? you said no. you said to leave and you said you wanted me gone. don't give me that "i miss you" shit or "i love you, even if you don't love me." if you loved me, if you EVER loved me, you wouldn't have lied. you wouldn't have fed me those lines of "no one knows me like you." because i know you were saying the same damn things to her. i know this, because she showed me. i chose right all those months ago. you and i have memories---that's all. i don't even know you now. you and your american idol. you still bible-thumping these days? keep on keepin' on. i stick by the choice i made with no regrets.
"i need to keep you like this in my mind...
that being said...no more public entries. :x

POTATOES today at my mom's house. omg i am in love with baked potatoes. i'd make 'em, but i'd prolly blow something up. like my oven. or my apartment.
i think i file another claim tomorrow. then monday i have an appointment at 9am to get my taxes done. then it's 2 dozen phonecalls about jobs. and i'm calling the hospital AGAIN. i'm sick of their crap, giving me the run-around. i got fired for reading a fucking BOOK. i never fucking hurt anyone, and i certainly don't need to be treated like i murdered a co-worker on my lunchbreak. jesus. if i can't get through to them, i'm going to give up on the clinic positions and talk to pam. if she's still looking for someone, then i'll tell her that my shit's on file and she can argue with the hospital for me, but i would be more than happy to work for her. i'm just getting sick of leaving voicemails and no one ever calling back, of calling at 10am and being told someone's on their lunchbreak, calling back at 3pm, and they're on ANOTHER lunchbreak??
i am so fucking sick of this whole fucking place.
can i live in your basement and sleep in your arms?

"Save Me"
Had a bad day, don't talk to me,
gonna ride this out,
My little black heart breaks apart,
with your big mouth.
And I'm sick of my sickness
Don't touch me, you'll get this.
I'm useless, lazy, perverted,
and you hate me.
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
Well I'm waiting for my wakeup call,
And everything, everything's my fault.
Went to the doctor, and I asked her,
to make this stop.
Got medication, a new addiction,
Fucking thanks a lot.
I had to relapse, I'm bad at rehabs
It ruins everything.
So point your finger at the singer,
He's in the pharmacy.
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
Well I'm waiting for my wake up call,
and everything's my fault.
You can't save me!
You can't blame me!
Well I'm waiting here to take a fall,
and everything, and everything's my fault.
And I'm a death threat haven't slept yet,
Baby why the wake up call
I'm the bad boy tell the tabloids
everything's my fault.
Whoa whoa whoa yeah, write it write it,
Whoa Whoa whoa everything's my fault,
everything's my fault.
I went to heaven, but couldn't get in,
For what I have done.
I said please take me, they said you're crazy
you had too much fun.
You can't save me...
You can't change me...
Well I'm waiting for my wake up call,
and everything's my fault.
You can't save me!
You can't blame me!
Well I'm waiting here to take a fall,
and everything, everything's my fault.
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
(everything's my fault)
You can't save me!
You can't change me!
Everything's my fault...

so i finish the zebra-striping on this box, and take a look at it...and the damn thing won't stay closed. why? apparently, the wood is a little warped. where/how am i supposed to get ANOTHER circular wooden box on my budget?? well. the recipient better like boxes that don't close all the way. just can't keep any super secret stuff in there. :)
the heart box, however, has held up well. it's going to look fanTAStic. i'm piecing it together tonight. wish me luck that it all works again.
