It was nothing major... and I am just writing this blog to vent/explain what happened. I may have been paranoid or whatever, but he was also in his brother's car which doesn't run well, so I thought he may have broke down, but I also have a million other things running through my mind. But my main concern was that he was having car trouble and stuck somewhere. Around 3 AM, he was still MIA, and I still hadn't heard anything, so everyone in shoutbox shared my concern and told me I should call the cops, so I did after stalling and working up the courage for 15 minutes. The operater I talked to told me that she would send someone http://pwned.com/showblog/2542/pinkdragonfly/About-last-night----/ http://pwned.com/showblog/2359/pinkdragonfly/When-Shoutbox-makes-others-mad---/ So... today I was trying to have a convo with my buddies on pwned sb, but my little cat Kamie thought it was a better idea that I should be petting her. What a little jerk. :P Haha... was just messing around and thought I would share! lt;3 nbsp; nbsp; http://pwned.com/showblog/2359/pinkdragonfly/When-Shoutbox-makes-others-mad---/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1869/pinkdragonfly/A-new-kind-of-Gotcast-com-contest-/ Okay... well this isn't exactly for me, and I did not participate in any of the former contest involving G4. I want to guys to vote for my dog! Yes, my dog! http://www.gotcast.com/Pinkdragonfly nbsp; I honestly believe he is the greatest dog ever... I rescued Conner from the pound when he was a little over a year old. I was looking for a new dog and not really seeing any that I was really interested in. Then as I was about to leave these 2 guys came in ready to get rid of their yellow lab mix.They went and put him in a pen out back and I went to see and visit with him. He was so scared and hiding in the corner, it turns out the former room-mates who owned him abused him. I spent time with him, and he was the mellowest, smartest and nicest dog I have ever met. Most abused dogs get aggressive and mean, but he was, and is never at all. I knew I had to have him.

I am going to try to get something going that I will need a lot of outside help with, but it only takes one pebble falling to sometimes start a landslide. I want to unite us all in the gaming community. Gamers United, to help spread positivity in gaming. Arenrsquo;t you all tired of hearing about all this violence being blamed on video games? Arenrsquo;t you tired of people in the community constantly putting others down? Arenrsquo;t you tired of all this hashing out against one another when we could be having fun and playing games? Letrsquo;s make a stand together then! People are constantly complaining about what is going on right now in the gaming world, so here is a chance to stop it. I just threw this banner together, but I would l http://pwned.com/showblog/1416/pinkdragonfly/I-am-making-a-stand---/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1387/pinkdragonfly/Warcraft-and-raiding---/ Does this group of people look familiar to all you WoW raiders? Ohh yes, they are your fellow raiders. Haha... I got such a kick out of this because a lot of it's sooo true! ---------------------------- The Raid You raid with these people. You work with these people. These people are closer than your family. You should worry. The GM- Hersquo;s sacrificed his family, friends, and probably a couple of jobs to drag you through new content. When the guild isnrsquo;t performing, these decisions are in question. Prone to shooting sprees, forum flame wars, and the rapid advancement/gearing of whatever toon the guild ldquo;needsrdquo;. If you can keep your mouth shut, hersquo;ll go emo and quit before you get gkicked. Still, you do like the guy. Or did. Before he went crazy. See Drunks, below. The Raid Leader- When you stand in the flames, he dies a little bit inside. The Positive of http://pwned.com/showblog/1387/pinkdragonfly/Warcraft-and-raiding---/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1336/pinkdragonfly/A-page-turns-in-gaming-/ We all know that our gaming world is turning a new page at this point, and even to me it feels like a lot of stuff is still changing as we go into new chapters. Gaming has progressed so much over the years. Think back to playing Atari where you had 2 lines that you bounced a ball back and forth with. Then think about what it is today, and how it has changed us and progressed through the years. I thought of a few things I know I would like to see in the future, and some things that I hope don't happen! I wrote them all on my blog if you want to read what I have to say. :] http://pinkdragonfly.wordpress.com/ nbsp; http://pwned.com/showblog/1336/pinkdragonfly/A-page-turns-in-gaming-/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1285/pinkdragonfly/Negativity-in-the-modern-gaming-world-/ A subject many of my other female gamers have been touching, so I thought I would give my 2 cents about it also. http://pinkdragonfly.wordpress.com/2008/03/02/negativity-in-modern-day-gaming-world/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1285/pinkdragonfly/Negativity-in-the-modern-gaming-world-/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1269/pinkdragonfly/Death-by-caffiene-/ The results can be suprising! http://www.energyfiend.com/death-by-caffeine/ Put in your weight+your favorite energy drinks!

When you could sit in front of your Nintendo NES all day and no one really thought much of it. Most of the rest of the worlds was doing it too... I mean even our own mother and 5 year old sister's were doing it! (The sister = me.)Now look at it... it has turned into this huge thing. Competitions, Conventions, Expo's that thousands of people turn up to to experience the new technology awaiting us. But that isn't what I am getting into really in this blog... I am just wondering why the attitude of those days has changed so much. Do you ever realize how most people feel you are only a gamer depending on how good you are at these games?Okay I am going to touch a subject that most people, including myself, am totally sick of hearing about, and wish it would pass, but it hasn't."Girl Gamers"I have been reading other blogs and thread http://pwned.com/showblog/1217/pinkdragonfly/I-am-curious----/ http://pwned.com/showblog/1111/pinkdragonfly/----Myblog----New/ Someone e-mailed me this... if you have read it you can move along... if not, it's funny!
