*taps foot* Hurry up already!

Steve's flight comes in to Fredericton soon, but it's been a bit delayed. Thank goodness for aircanada.ca, this way I'm not going to leave the house before his plane leaves Montreal. :-) It's been about 23 days, I'm going crazy to see him.

Sorry about my rant, below. It really got to me. I haven't been back to that site.

digg - Yet Another Girl Gamer Complains about the "Games 4 Girls" GameStop Display

The message board got messy over this one. Here's what I wrote:

"I'm really disappointed in you, diggers. I can't believe some of the things you're saying, and how they're getting dugg. If they're meant as jokes, which I somehow doubt, they're hurtful ones that aren't funny in the least.

"by xrisnothing + 48 diggs
Quit complaining and fetch a sandwich for me."

"by Tawni -3 diggs
No, it's not a myth. I am a girl. Girls play video games and exist on the Internet. sorry to disappoint you."

It's NOT OK!!! How in the world can you do things like this, and then complain that women are all mercenary bitches because you can't get a girlfriend? You think it's because you're too NICE?!? WTFH!!!!

I'm out of here, Digg. It's obvious that women aren't welcome into your little club."

New Words Today

Three new words today! Popsicle and Ice (Cream) for my mom, bath for me. When I went to put the fresh diaper on his butt, he told me, "No now!" That's his first phrase, and the first time I've ever used quotation marks for him. He's ready to talk!!

Steve's home from Alberta in 13 days.
