Adios Amigas!

*polishes shiny new LiveJournal permanent account*

Yeah, so I decided to bite the bullet and get a permanent account. It's only money, after all. And I've become such an icon slut. I told shoegal_icons at pink_cosmos that she was partially to blame. If you're looking for icons, check hers out. </pimp>

Over at news, people were riding the drama llama pretty hard over the permanent account sale. There's still a lot of weeping and gnashing of teeth over Strikeout 2007. My humble opinion? Some people need to build a bridge and get over it. LJ admitted they fucked up and they're trying to correct it. But, still, on every page there are these posts from people with their inflated sense of importance wailing "I can't buy a perm account because I don't know if I can trust you, LJ. Woe, woe." So, you feel that way? Fine. Then don't buy one. Just STFU about it, OK? No one really cares anymore about your opinion.

*pets poor drama llama*

In other news, I am outta here this afternoon. Fiji, here I come. Two wonderful weeks diving my brains out on the Fiji Aggressor III. As always, I will miss you all. (But I'd better not miss anything good, dammit. I want to hear aboutsee those pix of Mike naked or whatever when I get back.)

There are a few important events that will occur in my absence:

Happy Birthday wishes go out to:

sick_of_me03 27 June
oh_johnny_ 27 June
oneandonlytrey 27 June
mikeyface 29 June
My Dad (who, thank god, has never even heard of LJ) 1 July (OMG, he's 79!)
luthien123 4 July

and a very Happy 13th Wedding Anniversary to the lovely Billie Joe and Adrienne Nesser Armstrong on 2 July.

Take care of yourselves while I'm gone, OK?


P.S. I uploaded a so-so quality .wmv copy of the infamous Green Day 1991 Tour Video here, if anyone would like it. It's 85 MB. Billie's Willy makes an appearance around minute 31, for those that might be interested.

Permanent account eh? So you plan on being around for a while hmm? YAY. I debated it, but it feels weird to do that so soon into my newbie state. 2 days left though...perhaps.

So while I know absolutely nothing about boats and diving, the boat you'll be on looks really beautiful and I hope you have an absolutely awesome time! Hope there's lots of amazing creatures to see - take lots of pics and we await your return.

I'm torn as I really want "something" to happen in GD land (which I don't expect, but you can still hope), but it's more fun to share it with you, so I'll cross my fingers for no new news for the next 2 weeks!

*waves to Mary's dad* Nothing to see here sir.....nope......nothing pervy to be found on these pages. How about another cup of tea? ;)

I figured I wasn't going anywhere anytime soon, so what the heck? I think the cost is what the bar tab at the Beverly Hilton was between Ash, Angie and me when we met Green Day. And that was worth it. :-)

I'm a mediocre u/w photographer at best, but I'm hoping to have a few good shots to bring home.

When I'm done here, I'll be logging on to the guest account. All my files and bookmarks will be far far away from sensitive eyes.
