2003-07-07 | HOT HOT HEAT

My diary is going to be naked for the next few days because I didn't renew my diaryland gold membership in time.

I think it's dumb, because I paid for the pictures I uploaded already, and I only used less than ten percent of my database, but I'm not allowed to use what I already payed for, which I haven't even used yet!!!! I don't get it. It's not like I'm ripping them off. I've already renewed like 4 times at least, so I've put in almost a hundred bizzucks all for naught.

I would definitely recommend getting a lifetime membership, because the powers that be be buggin', yo.

And of course this happens just after I submit my diary for another review, and I after I join the CLIX revolution. Now everyone's gonna visit my page and think it sucks, because the gimmicks have been temporarily replaced by absolutely nothing.

God forbid they like my diary just for my excellent entries anyway.

Some people might like it because it's less complex now, but the people that review diaries, and other like-minded people look for extras, and I had to get rid of those for a few days, because with all my dead pictures hanging around on my layout, I had more eXes than J-Lo.

So get this!! I hope you've read this far, because something crazy is going on in this here town. I wrote a few entries ago about how the mountain that sits on the distant horizon, overlooking my porch ("poach" if you're from the hood) was on fire, and that I could see it's beautifully destructive glow clearly from there.

Well now it has started moving over the mountain and down the hill towards the hotel that I work at! It's fucking wild. They had to evacuate the entire place. Only a few fireworkers, and a couple lucky employees can stay on the property, while the rest of us sit on our asses at home and hope that the place doesn't burn down. (and that we get a few extra days off of course....as long as nobody gets hurt.)

I think Stephanie might go in. I'm not sure. I don't think she should. She's a better person than me. I don't think she would say "no" if they said they needed her, even though I don't think they really need her. It's not that she won't help out if she was there, it's more that corporate assholes tend to take advantage of their employees in times like these, because they say it's all for the company, and to serve their customers and employees as best as they can, but it's mostly because the high ranking officials usually disappear way to conspicuously at times like these because they don't know how, and they simply don't want to deal with it. They've already got money, what do they care? We're all trying to get where they already are. Financial freedomerica.

You can look in any direction out there pretty much and see the flames ripping through brush, and smoke forming deadly clouds above the spots that once held summer cabins, but now hold nothing but ugly black spots of nothingness.

It's so exhilirating, but it's also just mind-boggling. Anything could happen next. The fire could just stop. It could go in any direction. It could go towards the hotel. It could burn down my apartment complex. Who knows? You have to just wait and see. And take pictures.

The sunrises and sets have been amazing too. The horizon is a beautiful pinkish orange at dawn and dusk, and the sun has ranged from the color of a blood orange to that of a giant looming crimson masterpiece, peircing your eyes while at the same time inviting them to take a peek before it's impossible.

Apparently they've talked about the fire on CNN and other national outlets, but my mom didn't hear anything about it until I called her tonight and updated her.

There's only so much you can say about a wildfire that has so far, the last time I heard, burnt more than 80,000 acres. "Yep........it's....um.....still burning folks...."
