the doctor that delivered me has passed away .....he was the man!.....seriously.. i havent really had a doctor since he retired now hes really gone... moment of silence please.... HEY SILENCE..you in the back!..
anyhow completely unrelated ...im not cool.... my blogs are never thought provoking deep poetic soliloquies...... and now that ive said that i realized that in my blogs all i ever talk about is the fact that im blogging...does that make me a doltosaur?la-la-la-lame.....
so it looks like i have a faithful following although my blogs are few and far between elinor and andrea are keeping it real with odddodd....

leaving the amish and joining the rest of civilization in the 21st century with my very own digital camera! which means i can post pics ..hooorah
... this just in!!!!--- im going to bed.

hammer time..break it down

2004-12-29T16:58:00.000-08:00

ok so here we go.. sarah and i are setting sail for adventure tomorrow morning... dont know where the road will take us... weve been thinking nashville but south carolina sounds good too... who knows really. i feel like columbus ... maybe we'll discover the world is flat after all... wouldnt that be something...
i just realized i spelled my last name wrong on my last blog. who does that?
everyone at work thought they were clever in saying 'see you next year ' today kuz i wont be back til jan...., gets old after a while doesnt it? same material floatin around there...
so today was my last day on contract at the jewish community centre (they discovered im not jewish..) but theyve asked me to stay full time . pretty cool!. at first i was hesitant. but why not til i find something else huh? but now i have to learn herbrew and wear a kippa to be one with them... ahhh just kidding. i love it there.
gosh blogging takes effort ...i mean who reads this anyhow. maybe instead of emailing people i should just link them to my blog.. so for those of you who are getting this as an email.... umm
how are you? hows your family or pet.? . are you still throwing that big surprise party for john ..(oh sorry was i not suppose to say anything?)...
whats the deal with 'secret' deoderant? i mean i dont want the fact that i wear deoderant to be a secret...
'wow joy you really stink'
' i know..its cool, my deoderant is secret..shhh'

went boxing day shopping the other day got some really good deals.. the winner had to be jerry seinfelds comedy thing DVD for $5.99. havent watched it yet.... anyone know if its good or not..? dont tell me if it sucks i just shelled out 6 bones for that sucka.
anyhow..better wrap this like a present...
keep cool
joy

toilet, how i have missed you... literally...

2004-12-24T22:17:00.000-08:00

literally i missed the toil..... haha just kidding.. my toilet was broken so i havent gone at all in like 4 days... ok thats only half true... so whats the half true part? was my toilet broken for half of four days which is 2... or did i half go to the bathroom ? ill let you decide.... ok its been a while since ive blogged... 5 months and 23 days i think actually... and tis the season to be blogging.. falalal... blah... its christmas eve.. no wait . christmas day now..and i havent wrapped anything yet... i keep wanting to say packed instead of wrapped, but that doesnt make any sense... or DOES it. maybe im fedexing my gifts around the world so that my fam wont see them under the tree.. or maybe its a sign that im taking a trip??? wait i guess i AM taking a trip . sarah and i are trying to get away for new years eve .. any ideas? somewhere fun! hopefully go to a show . see some bands who knows... anyone out there want us over? preferably somewhere in america.
im wearing a dress. a fancy dress. no real reason either.. went to christmas eve service casual came home put a dress on and sat at the computer... fancy!
so blogspot tried to stop my blogging tangent. .. first it wouldnt let me log in... so i went to check my blog site but i spelled it wrong and lo and behold it took me to a bible page rather randomly actually... funny maybe God wants me to open my bible?
so i was locked out. its like being locked out of your house. it told me my username didnt exsist , but i went to my blogsite and it exsists so i had to have my username emailed to me and turns out my username is NOT odddodd as i assumed it was... i guess i would know this if i had blogged in the last 5 months...
so i was putting the dished away today, and theres NO room in our cupboards for half our stuff my mom refuses to get rid of it.. so it has to go to the basement kitchen .. thats right we have a full basement kitchen which i swear is only there to house our extra cutlery and dishes... this actually is starting to sound like Jesus birth. so maybe its time for the Christmas story -Joy style...
you cant tell me its sacreligious kuz veggie tales would pull something like this and get away with it.
A long time ago In a land called Oakville there lived a girl named Joy. one cold winters night as she put the dishes to bed, 2 bowls and their donkey , Plate came strolling into the kitchen looking for a place to stay. Joy was all filled up since it was the holidays and had no room for them. the bowl begged 'please ma'am my wife is about to give birth to a spoon, and we need somewhere to stay' . Joy led them to the downstairs kitchen and made a nice comfy cupboard for them with the old chips and instant coffee... wise styrofoam cups came from the east with gifts of oreos, kraft dinner and mountain dew. they had followed the great 100 watt lightbulb on their journey.... the baby spoon was sent from heaven and was fully God and fully spoon.. he was perfect and humble. he did not seek the glory and fame the main floor kitchen had to offer... he was the cleanest spoon that ever was. and he saved you and me. we can drink and eat from this spoon if we become childlike -because babies are spoonfed from their fathers hand... the end
wow that last part actually made sense... should be a sermon or something..... praise the Lord!
but i still have more to write..back to my nonsense rambling... i downloaded this music sharer called Ares , and was enjoying all its benefits . downloaded a whole 5 songs til my computer told me im outta room. stupid 4 gig computer....Ipod minis have the same amount of space as my computer.. maaaan... but at least ive got a whole 5 songs.. woohoo.. speaking of ipods thats what im hoping for this year ..... but ill prolly get it after christmas when the prices go down..its cool i can wait.. im patient...
so on that note i think its time to end this blog and say good night and a merry, working toilet christmas to you all ! :)

'i never took the time, to stop and realize that death takes many forms, even while alive'
just heard that in a plankeye song, never really listened to plankeye, but thats a great line!
ok so i salvaged my canada day.... went to the country music fest deal with ty kersten kathy and texas... saw paul buhh... umm paul brandt.... and some folk... then saw spidey 2!!! it was pretty good. theres something about the Spiderman movies that bores me for some reason. like the plots, the actors...i duno what it is.. i just find myself bored..
went to work yesterday and went home sick.. i dunno whats in my system but i feel achy and have chills and a fever.... spent a good 5 hours in front of the tv... woke up today and im all puffy.. my hands are puffy and everything feels stiff... sooo do i go to brandons surprise party... (i hope brandon isnt reading this...uhhh B, theres no party)... kinda wana stay home but i never see the found crew anymore.... ok so cast your votes everyone... do i go or dont i? ... 1866 IDOLS-01... oh wait wrong number..
i think i should go.... so ima go get ready .
peas.

adventures!

2004-07-01T13:02:00.000-07:00

well i just spent a good chunk of my canada day in emergency...... well ohip works . i am living proof. however the poor folk with ailments waiting and waiting...
heres the story.
had that crazy superpowers rash yesterday... woke up today it was still there. called telehealth. she asked me some questions and suggested i go to emergency thinking it was toxic shock syndrome.
so i am home alone freaking out. cant reach my parents or my brother, trying to scrounge money for the bus.. my dad calls me back and reminds me the bus isnt running today. oh yeah stupid national holiday.
so he says ill hurry home.. an hour later dad shows up. you know the seinfeld episode where elaines new boyfriend goes to hospital and she visits him and has juji fruit. and he asks her when she got the juji fruit. ....turns out it was after she found outhe was in the hospital... i felt like that today, my parents took their time leaving the prayer meeting (although they had the group pray for me ) and went and returned a rental car... but all in all they hurried. it was just funny thats all... so i waited about 2 hours. and the doc told me it was uticaria... hives pretty much. no liver failure like id thought or anything... so that means theres still the possibility of superpowers.
anyhow im off to go salvage my canada day and possibly make my first heroic rescue.... now i need a catchphrase and a sidekick...auditions for sidekicks will be held at the batcave at 0800.
"so long, and so rashy" thats the catch phrase for now.

superpowers?

2004-06-30T21:50:00.000-07:00

so whats this rash? i just looked at my legs after work and realized i have a rash ALL over my body. that sounds like one of those funny jokes but seriously theres red dots ALL over . mostly my legs and arms . but this is bizarre!. and then it occured to me... im just acquiring my superpowers duh ima be a superhero!!!!! strange occurances always happen before you get superpowers. well i dunno what itl be ..maybe ill be 'rash girl!' spreading contaminative skin diseases to evil doers! ....well i cant speak much more about it because with any superhero no one can know my secrety identity!
also cornerstone started today and yup you guessed it still in oakville. sigh.
think theres a virus/spyware on my comp kuz its taking like 20 million hours to do everything on my computer. i think its called intel wizard.
and if you read this could you pray for wisdom, im considering quitting my job...
well i should prolly head to bed. canada day is tomorrow! yeeeehawwwww!!!!!! going to a country fest. (you owe me ty. you owe us ALL)

2004-06-29T20:45:00.000-07:00

so my dad dropped his car off at the shop today, and 20 minutes later i saw 5 punk kids driving it down the street. the funniest part is my dad has NO problem with this whatsoever.
ok so tomorrow is tooth and nail day AKA the commencement of cornerstone... so i know what youre thinking 'joy how could you possibly be typing from a tent in bushnell illinios?!' . im not. im not there and im not going. i cant believe it. and i know everyone is in shock.. well theres always kingdombound right? i guess.
aaaand i hate my job. more and more every day. i cant believe ive been there a year 9 months and 22 days. agggghh.
saw hawk nelson disruption and falling up play last night. it was cool, until i peed at the side of the road and then lorri sat on my cop glasses! those glasses were gonna get me to the top! TO THE TOP!.
no one questions the cop! and no one questions the girl that LOOKS like a cop. that was my 'in' to the policeforce..thanks lorri. ahh well theyre salvageable i think. why dont my sunglasses ever last !?
lets examine why.
1. people like lorri sit on them. i kid i kid. ive let it go.
2. i never spend more than $5 on them, maybe i should be more like ty and blow $280 on a pair of sunglasses that i never wear and come with a snazzy case.
3. those stupid lil elves always unscrew the bolts on them, thus causing said sunglasses to malfunction. ILL GET YOU ELVES!
anyhow andreas friend phil knows a few guys from falling up. kuz theyre from oregon too. pretty jazzy. that was the highlight of my day...

my world is wobbly

2004-06-25T05:09:00.000-07:00

literally.... im really dizzy . think its the meds.... well at least i wont be a depressed schitzophrenic with an eating disorder and high blood pressure anymore... haa... ahhh i kid, i kid,... its just an antibiotic im on... i should be getting ready for work. but what is work? isnt THIS work? shouldnt i be getting paid to type my thoughts. isnt that what writers do. checques in the mail. no i really think i want to be a writer (this week anyhow) . k gotta get ready for work.
how bout that GMC XUV . looks pretty cool.

frustration of all frustration

2004-06-22T18:17:00.000-07:00

oh the irony that i want to complain, and my complaint is about the very site im complaining on. what are the odds.
perhaps im just not proficient enough when it comes to 'blogging' after all this is my first (teehee!) . but it would appear that i cant even choose a template and the URL i want is taken...by me. because i started an account and then closed the window now i cant finish the account . although i guess if this blog shows up that means its working. well i have nothing further to say. so this is the end dear friend.
