Talcum Powder Doesn't Explode....

I'm feeling pretty good today, calming down a bit from the mania which has been plaguing me. In fact, I feel so good that I'm barely annoyed by the jackass whose been saying crappy things about my house (from college) online. College kids can be awfully funny when they are so obnoxious and yet so stupid...

I must say, I think these EMDR sessions are good for me. Plus I like the chick who does them, which is odd because usually frail looking old ladies kind of creep me out. I'm going back again for one next week, then I'll get on a two week rotation after that. For next week I'm supposed to think of some situation where my mom yelled at me and it made me feel bad. Gee, I only hope I can think of one.
I guess the harder to understand part is how incidents of being hit, swore at, humiliated, belittled and just generally treated like crap are supposed to be dealt with one at a time.

In financial news, it seems that I was turned down for foodstamps. I find it amazing that someone whose only income is $264 a month disability is expected to buy all their own groceries. From what I am told, I was turned down because I told the truth about how much money H made, even though we are not married. So we get no benefits of being married and are only recognized as married by the government for the purpose of them not giving us money. I don't want to sound like a whiny welfare case, but that is a bit on the hypocritical side. They said they sent me a form telling me about the foodstamps in March. Lie.
In better news, I finally got my money from March, April, May and June. I'm giving most of it to H, of course. But I'm also treating us to some new sheets as we only have one set (and a few random, unmatched flat sheets), which has a big rip in them. I'm also going to square up my credit card and get a new outfit for job interviews. Slowly, I want to build up a professional wardrobe.

Big thanks to [profile] uterdic for this crazy article about a python that exploded. No pics though...Awww.

JoJo and Pentelope actually played today. That was cool. We also had our first night without a new cat mess to clean up. JoJo was much more calm last night too, despite being locked in the bathroom all night. He threw the towels on the floor, but did not pee on them. I daresay that's progress.

I'm sure by now you've all seen that re-edited Shinning trailer that looks like a feel good family movie. Well the West Side Story one is much much better. Or maybe, it's just more to my taste. I loves it.

Oh, and can I just say, I can't wait to hear the new Fiona Apple album?

The python that exploded.

I originally saw a smaller image with a headline that said something like, "Python dies afer attempting to eat alligator" and I couldn't figure out what the image was showing exactly. Clarifying it to EXPLODED from dies helped a lot.

There's a picture of your 'sploding python here.

Expect to see Everglades: Reptile Frenzy on the Sci-Fi Channel by mid-February.

I'll tell you what I told the other guy:

Jesus Tapdancing Christ?!?

*Shudder*

That is very funny, though. Right next to the exploded python is an ad featuring giant slabs of meat. Ew.

Thanks.

And yeah...sucks to be the python, and the gator.

I got it from Lj's very own [livejournal.com profile] pirateman. All funny, all the time.

Yar.

You know, if you go on Fiona Apple's Myspace page you can hear the whole album.

No shit?

I'm so there.

Yes, once again our world proves that you are rewarded for lying and punished for honesty.

I really don't understand how someone with an income of less than $300 a month can really be told they don't need any help paying for food. It's baffling, especially since I've been paying into that damn program since I was 16 years old.

Anyway, I'm sure H will be bummed.

Before I saw the comments with people sending you off to other articles with pictures, I was going to link to this. Python go 'splody.

And now, um... I did link it. So, yeah.

And yes, the West Side Story one is very good, although I think them adding the glowing eyes/mouth is cheating.

That's true about the glowing eyes and mouth. But since it's zombies, they get a pass.

I had this posted in my journal awhile ago, but it seems fitting to mention it again, in light of that alligator/python thingie:
