SUPER PAUSE – Ranting alert, skip to the Un pause if you want.

Much to my own disbelief. Today, as I was looking for string to tie my banner up, some A-holes decided it’d be fun to stalk me. So, an hour later, my friends had arrived and the kids started hiding, still stalking me none-the-less. Eventually I got mad enough that I got in my car, rode by them, and gave them the double birdy. (Oh yes, it was worth it) So they chased after me, despite my being in a car, and about 30 minutes later I went back to chill with my friends and the security guard was called by my friends and blah blah blah. In the end,

UN-SUPER PAUSE!

I found no string, and my entry is prolly gonna be thrown together right now and stuck out front of my neighbor hood. Sorry, it’s dark outside. (Good god that’s alot of words)

They've been flooding in and this week has been insane with my day job and then spending all day at the hospital yesterday with a friend who had surgery. I'm amazed at how many entries that I'm getting. I'm already wondering how the heck I'm going to manage to pick a winner. As usual, I wish everyone could win. :o)</p> Hey guys, I’m working hard to get all the entries up.
