...what?

Why can't I update per email? Why can't I update by sending an email from my phone?

I know the answers to these questions are probably right in front of me (if I just went looking for them), but just the fact that something has changed annoys me. It used to work, now it doesn't.

I'm old, I like things like they used to be.

You know, or may not know, that I often say I don't have this and that. No cool clothes, no makeup and certainly no style whatsoever. What I might have had, I left behind in my 20s.
Well, seems Iggy's been picking up not only the makeup but the style - the more color, the better. For those of you that wan't to copy this look, it's all Make up Store's eyeshadows and Sephora's lipsticks.

Spent some time reading through friends' journals and then friends of friends. Found out that an old lj-buddy committed suicide 3 years ago (around the time I had Iggy). I guess that proves that this is all an ego-trip - can't even keep track of you all. Even though this is "just online", people spill their guts and hope that somebody listens. After a while, they figure that some people, the so-called friends, do listen.
I didn't even do that.
I think I will have to re-think this whole Livejournal-shebang. If I'm here, then I need to read and not just pop in once a year and say; Wow, you had a baby/tattoo/sexchange?.
The only problem is that LJ takes time. But then again, so does Farmville...

On a good note, I re-discovered Shrinkle (through Twinkie). She's one of those colorful personalities that always make me smile and realize that I need color in my life. If I had money, I'd go Kryolan. That was if one could buy it over here..

HELLO! Is this thing on?

Feels like I am talking to myself here. I already do that so I don't really need another venue.
Heh..

Gimme links!

2009-07-16T12:47:39Z

The oddest question, I know. but what's your homepage? You know, the first site when the browser launches? That's usually a site you not just like but also use. My bookmarks are filled with sites I like but never look at. My homepage, well, I get bored so easily that mine changes weekly. Right now it's http://creaturecomforts.typepad.com/ , an inspirational blog that updates frequently. Plus, I like the design. I wish http://www.schmut.net looked something like that...( or like http://www.poppytalk.blogspot.com/)
The week before that it was http://www.google.se/ig and before that http://schmut.bloggy.se/ (swedish equivalent to twitter) or http://modish.typepad.com/

I think I might have mentioned this far too many times before, but I need friends. I want friends. I want friends that are just MINE and not Honks & mine. There's a subtle difference.
I want friends that like to eat and be geeks. No dieting, no being übercool and caring what others may have to say.

To be completely honest, that's one of the reason I rarely read my LJ friendspage these days : I get so darn jealous. You guys seem to have such great funfilled lives. You do things, go places, meet people and you evolve.
I don't.
I grow things. An artichoke for a best friend.

For some unknown reason, LJ won't let me post by email. I've been sending a bunch of updates from my phone, but there's not here. Lost words afloat. Too bad as my new phone and me are getting along pretty good. Well, it's shite, but so far it's working shite. That is more than I am used to.

Other than that, hot, sweaty and looking like a fool. This heat is making me use short sentences like that. (Sure, blame the heat)

a summary

2009-06-26T07:00:43Z

Iggy's been sick, really sick. Roky's been wild, really wild. Me? I've been dead tired.
You know where washed out and washed up mothers ask for a rejuvenating makeover? This is now.

On a good note, I've been referred to as sharp and spot on (when it comes to media and politics). Who knew?

Last night, I dreamt I was in South Korea. That's ok.
Last night I dreamt I was in South Korea looking for the perfect marijuana. That's weird.
Last night, I dreamt I was a pothead in South Korea that had sex with Tim Armstrong. That's not ok.

And, hey, doesn't East Bay night sounds a lot like He's benign?

I've had this blog for 8,5 years. since November of 2000. that is scary, sick and ...scary. reading my own entries, I cringe and cringe some more. the photos are still good though (thank God).

I've been with Honk for 10 years. had Big Boss for 12 years.
the years are really adding up, aren't they?

I guess it's comments like this that makes me love livejournal

"i have allways wanted to be annirexic and i am 13 years old and at school people call me fat wat can i do lose wate and the is a boy i realy like wat can i do please help me if u can and am callied shona gregson and i am 7 stone and i link that is fat for me bye "

what is it with all these vintage girls thinking that life as a housewife is a good choice in life?
and why is it they think they're being hated on?

today's the first time (in weeks) I've had time to sit down and read my friendspage thoroughly....and I realize that I don't have a clue about anything. a lot of things happen in a few weeks, don't they?
break-ups, kids, moving out, new jobs, new gender..?!

what did I do? well, I realized I might actually like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs new record. that's all.
well, that and taken many, many walks with the dog that's been bitten twice but not shy...or something.

I don't twitter as much as I used to

2009-03-17T10:08:38Z

the Writer's block on the frontpage scares me

Top o' the morning to you! Has anyone ever pinched you for not wearing green on St. Patrick's Day?

why have a journal if you don't know what to say and most importantly, why write when you have nothing to say?
ah, never mind, that's what I do all the time...

but, I've fallen in love with Operator please, I can't log into Myspace, I've been reading far too much and I have been buying too many darn seeds. last night I dreamt that me and the singer of New bomb turks have joint custody over a dog and that I was living on a bus.
I've cut my hair so that I (almost) look like I did when I was 21. add wrinkles and you have Lisa anno 2009.
I know this all sounds like I should up on my meds, but honestly, I'm ok.
~~but, I would be better if somebody could suggest an journal-design that's a little more colorful than this...diarreah. please?~~
nevermind, I went back to the old one

the break-up

2009-02-22T13:10:52Z

I could write something deep and poetic about my (online) absence but no, it just felt good to not check my emails, un-install my msn and pretend like the internet never was.
I did update my swedish blog but that's because I can't keep my mouth shut about politics, media etc. it doesn't count as online activity, it's like breathing really. ranting in swedish means I don't have to think, just blabber on.

then I realized that not checking your email means there's a XXXX to be deleted once you do. so, me and the internet are on again.
for now.

I had a nightmare - quit Public health and took up Litterature.
in real life, it's not a nightmare though but true. should I take a hint?

been sick for some time. fallen in love with Spotify. gotten hooked on the Wire.
what have you been up to?

2008-10-26T10:44:40Z

I feel old, dull and worn out.

I blame it on my lack of medication. can't be that I'm dull, eyh?
give me a makeover, please. and perfect skin while you're at it.

the more I venture out into the real world, aka go to school with a bunch of blond 20 year olds, the more I feel all haggard

the new Vegan a go go by Kramer, is it any good?

wow, a girl on a bike!

2008-10-21T07:34:03Z

why don't americans ride bikes...more than they do?
it may sound like an odd (and a rather silly) question but having seen the chicks-that-bike feature in Venus Zine I can't help but wonder what's the deal?
chicks bike here all the time. they fix their bikes, they pimp their bikes, they ride around.

thinking some of you might know:

why is it that guerilla gardening is mostly about flowers and perennial bushes?
why not berries and other edibles?

I've been (tagging) using red currants and have been thinking about strawberries, but maybe this is something I should re-think?

2008-10-10T09:55:04Z

I dreamt (last night) that Bush kept coming out of our closet and that he was dating Josh Homme.
also, that Eddie Vedder had launched an anti-smoking campaign for teenagers called Smoke Jam and was selling nicotine-inhalers shaped as guns.

needlessly to say, yes, I was running a fever.
and that MTV is evöl.

his bellybutton is making a run for it

umbilical hernias in dogs - anybody that has had a dog with that? a dog that has had issues/medical problems with it later on?

over here, we (usually) don't close them unless they're severe and Roky's wasn't so it just meant he wasn't going to be Mr Stud.it was considered a cosmetic fault.
but, a few days ago, I noticed it was swollen and now it's the size of an olive....
