Segunda Mano

I didn't get the chance to check my blog the whole day yesterday, and so, when I turned on it today, I was pretty much in shock to see some changes, that I know, I didn't make consciously. The font was changed from Trebuchet MS to Verdana, and a quarter of my links list was gonzo. What the freak is going on? Is some no life douchebag trying to mess with me again? Oh, lord. It seems like I attract hackers the most. It's so unfortunate.

Anyway, my mom has been very addicted to Craig's List. I tell you, we have a gazillion of things at home that are second hand, thanks to her obsession. Not that I'm totally against it, but I just don't like the idea of using somebody else's stuff just for the sake of a cheaper price. Thankfully though, Mama never buys something remotely close to sanitary gadgets, haha, so yeah...we let her be. Today, she bought a sofa sleeper for the room downstairs, plus a foot-on, a lamp, a side table and a couple of picture frames. All from Craig's List. Mama is actually not a stingy person, and she's a nurse for peter's sake. But seriously, is Pier 1 that expensive? I never thought so. Oh well.

I was supposed to see Superman Returns last night. I even threw a hissy fit just so we can go. But it didn't work, as usual. Papa was too lazy to drive, and my brother wouldn't want to go. Mama can't drive, and I don't want to. I was so pissed. But it opened my eyes to something. I have to face the hell of freeways and start driving for my own sake. It can only help.

Have a lengthy and lively spirited weekend, my friends!

I know! It's crazy. Craig's List has everything, from furniture to humans. It's scary, haha! I'll help you look for premade stuff, don't worry. (:

hackers seriously need to get a life. good thing all they did was change your fonts and mess up your links. at least they didn't change your password.

oooh, my mom buys 2nd hand things too, but she doesn't purchase them on Craig's List, though. she gets my dad to drive her to garage sales, hehe.

naku, sinabi mo pa! i haven't driven on the freeway alone since we moved to texas. i missed florida for a second coz we lived right off Dale Mabry "highway" which was more of an avenue. hehe.

I'm well, it's just a movie. I will watch it, don't worry (;

Laurene
Same with the people around me.

Laureen
I know! Freeways here in Texas are crazy. Well, maybe not California crazy, but they're wider here. Scary. Haha!
