Man, not happy a friend of mine was talking about ANT and how he was acting on VH1....

Hi Everyone- Is anyone having problems with ANT's video. It says no longer available?
.
JAZZY- Congrats on 1st.

just watched it Dawn.

Steel Magnolia- Hello to you. I haven't been on when you've been here in a long time.

MMMMMMM- I went on youtube and here and one says not available and the other one I just get the loading and doesn't work. I guess I'll try it tomorrow. Thanks Scrappysmom.

wow colony if any of you are on the east coast you're night owls like me

hello jennheg, i live in maine how is that for east coast, coleen

good morning people!

ok. get this. monday was rainy and hellish. yesterday was beautiful and sunny. today... rainy and hellish! what the F is going on???

ANT! loved the blog today! i got the book!!! i'm so excited. when i received it there was jumping up and down like a little girl. and there was squealing!

love to everyone.. i'm off ! wish me luck for a pain-free day!

Andrea - Have a good pain-free day. Sounds like your weather is like ours has been, crazy and mixed up. We've been having rain, sun, hail, thunder, lightning, just today! oh and a power failure thrown in! Go figure.

Vg! i know!

i just got a call from the guy i was supposed to give an english lesson to. he has to cancel because he didn't sleep very well last night (he's on sick leave from work because of tendonitis in his feet, and he's in a lot of pain). which is fine by me because i'm sleepy myself. but! i was hoping he could help me with my resume, so now i'm up a creek without a paddle. so to speak.

blehhhh.

OK guys, needing so thought and prayers for another GRAPHIC JOB....My current job was yanked with out warning!

Has ~sneakygrl~ been around? We had horrific tornadoes here--I just want to know if she's okay.

I guess I should go look and not expect people to tell me, eh? You're right, I should.

Big Ole Congrats on 1st Jazzy!

Where are all NAUANs?

ANT, I think you just saved my day. :)
.
It’s supposed to be a holiday today in Sweden, but my morning started off with an emergency telephone conference due to a critical error discovered in an application built in one of the projects in which I’m involved. Everyone seemed really tense and just seemed to want to put the blame on someone else. Not a good method for sorting out problems. It got me really pissed and it gave me a splitting headache.
.
But then I watched today’s vlog, and seeing your happy, lovely face and listening to your hilarious comments about all sorts of things sure made it all so much better. :) I’m gonna watch it a few more times since I’m convinced it’s going to cure my headache much quicker than a pill would.
.
I wish you all the best on your trip to New York. (Yes, I love that town, too.) And I’ll do my damnedest to find a way of listening to you on Howard Stern over the Internet.
.
Congrats to Jazzy on being #1. Wishing Andrea a pain-free day. Scrappysmom, sending good vibes for another job. To all of you in ANTland, have a perfect Wednesday! :)

Okay, I might take a pill as well, just to be on the safe side.

ANT...you could sign off...

~~ANT...MARCHING ON!~~

*crickets*

Ginger- I'm up still.

I think an hour ago my husband got up and said "Aren't you coming to bed? Are you still awake?" He thought I'd fallen asleep on the couch as I had The View from today on. I can't go out for lunch and be caught up on the latest now can I? LOL

OK, Crickets so I'll head off to bed. Talk to you all later. I guess I should say Goodmorning to the East Coast as they will be getting up about now. It's 0335PT for me.

crosspost from myspace.........

Oh you are soooooo funny!
:o)
Groovy blog today mister!

Safe travels to you and wishes for a grand time on the east coast AGAIN!

Hey there Colony!

Life is busy here lately.
Some good busy, some bad busy, but busy all around.

4 years ago tomorrow (May 1) my sister got the call that changed her life.
After 35 years of diabetes and 3 years on dialysis, they called her to the hospital for a kidney and pancreas transplant. She finally got into surgery technically on May 2nd after a long and crazy day at the hospital.
Did you know organs are delivered by taxi???
Our whole family was sitting in the main entry lobby waiting to hear that my sister was checked in. Little did we know that she WAS and was in a room alone wondering where WE were!
So we sat and waited nervously thinking we would hear that she was in a room.
My dad was white as a sheet and so visibly worried.
We were all trying to "be ok" and deal with what was happening and what may happen.
A taxi pulled up and the driver brought in a big cardboard box.
Jokingly, someone said "maybe that's Dy's new organs".
As the driver stood at the nurses counter I saw the sticker on the side that said "live organs".
Yes. It was my sister's new life delivered in a cardboard box by a taxi driver.
My brother in law went up and talked to him and he then came over to us as we thanked him for delivering us hope.
As we then watched the nurse put the box on a cart and wheel it away we all were crying and goose bumpy.
We finally found out my sister was in a room and began what seemed like a very long night of waiting for her to be ok'd for the transplants.
The surgeon arrived to find that they had not done the tests yet to see if they were a match.
They couldn't DO the test because they lost the organs!!!
They were misplaced I guess, found, then finally the tests could be given.
That caused a more than 4 hour delay, and my poor dad got even more pale.
Late that night, we sat watching SNL in the family room and a nurse came in to say that yes, the organs were for my sister and soon she would go into surgery.
As we all went to see her, and just as they were about to wheel her down to the ER, a code blue alert delayed that happening for at least an hour.

But finally...... at around 1:30 in the morning, my sister started her new life.
No more diabetes, and a working kidney.

I didn't plan to write about this today but thanks for the place to do so ANT.

Please consider organ donation.
My sister's organs were from someone who died from a drug overdose.
That is all we know.
I so wish her family could know how much they changed our families life by their selfless act of giving organs.
I hope everyone will consider being organ donors.
I have my sister because of it.

Thank you for listening.
Mj

wow. emjay. chicken skin. wow.

Chicken skin here too. Thanks for telling your story Mj.

Hi ANY♥ New York New York ♫ Wow, you have a busy schedule. You'll be great on Howard and on all the shows! Such nice gifts from the such thoughtful people.

Emjay, Great life changing story about your Sis and your family.

Andrea ,Maybe you will the the sun soon and your day gets better. . It's Spring here and 31 degrees!!!

Dr. Donna! Hi!

Matilda, Good luck getting your project sorted out and your headache soothed.

Have a best day eveyone!!
♥

Hi, TRESA! How are you? I got some exciting news last night. My sister had her sonogram yesterday. The baby is healthy and in the 93rd percentile for size - a big healthy baby (roughly the size of a coke can now LOL) and they re-assigned her due date from September 22nd to September 12th. And, she's having... A BOY!!

EMJAY What an amazing story. All of my thoughts have been so geared around my sister, especially since finding out she was pregnant. I can't begin to imagine what it would be like to see her in such a dire situation. God Bless the family who made the decision to donate the organs of their loved one. It truly is the gift of life! Give her a hug for me the next time you see her - the bond between sisters is magical.

A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double.

A sister shares childhood memories and grown-up dreams.

It was nice growing up with someone like you - someone to lean on, someone to count on... someone to tell on!

And...my personal favorite (which I tried to read as part of my Maid of Honor speech/toast at my sister's wedding - but had to hand to someone else to read for me, since it makes me cry every time):

Bless you, my darling, and remember you are always in the heart - oh tucked so close there is no chance of escape - of your sister.
-- Katherine Mansfield

Oh! I found a couple more -

She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child.
-- Barbara Alpert

Sisters annoy, interfere, criticize. Indulge in monumental sulks, in huffs, in snide remarks. Borrow. Break. Monopolize the bathroom. Are always underfoot. But if catastrophe should strike, sisters are there. Defending you against all comers.

GOODMORNING TO EVERYONE. Thanks for the special shout outs JESSICACOREY. I hope everyone has a great day. I'm going back to bed as I stayed up until about 0400 am. I need more sleep.

Good morning people:)

good morning everyone, I hoe your all well. i can breath now after the shout outs.

Hello anyone I missed when i wrote it. I hope you all are great.
I just found out the only guy in our section of the science center i work at gave his two weeks notice which means re-arranging the may schedual wich means me working even more days which kinda sucks I know it means money in my pocket but what it does to my sanity is another thing. If you'd like to see what I do here is the website http://sciencenorth.ca/ I work at the science north part of the website. and here is the history of my work http://www.sciencenorth.ca/attractions/snbckgrnd.html i've been here only a year but it feels like i've been here even longer. For the most part I love the people I work with and I get to meet people from all over. One dream of mine is to meet colony members at my work and show them a little bit of a large part of my life. anyways love you all yet another long post from me. more to come throughout the day as i get more and more bored at work.

Congrats Jazzy!

Hello Cher! What's happenin'?
Are you playing in the scavenger hunt?

Hi, yes I am playing the hunt!

I wish I could combine my money with yours to buy Jazzy! He needs to be poked, pinched, and prodded!!!! LMAO

Oh Ginger you dont need to own him to have him poked, pinched and smack!

Cher have you seen how much that mutt is worth??? OMG how did that happen?

Cher what have done on the Scavenger Hunt?

I dont know someone brought him from JPB before I could!

Where is Vancouvergirl, Dawn, Jazzy, Tutu, Bedbug, Scappymom, Gracie, Andrea....?

You know he'll have to have Ant on a lot too! :D
I hope the "Powers that Be" don't try to ruin him the way they do Rosie!!!
I think ANT needs his own show too!
We could all push for one!
A comedian show, where Ant has different comedians everyday plus Comedy sketches with them!
And maybe highlight up and coming Comedians like Johnny Carson used too! Ohhh what fun! Needs more thought and planning! Hmmmm?
~~~
Now taking suggestions!!!!

LOL- thats what I meant before and got sidetracked! LOL

I think the way ANT will sound saying it makes all the difference.

Oh myspace is deleting people again! I lost 5.

Yes! Exactly!
~~
I like Ant better when his own personality is funny. Sometimes he has a alter ego "ANT" and I'm not always liking him! Ant has a split personality!:)LOL

I think Tresa has defected to Sam's blog! I don't see her here as much. :(
