I Just Joined Snapvine
Now I'm wondering why I never heard of it and how did Utterli not get bigger than Snapvine? It really reminds me of the Slide type crowd. What happened there anyway? I remember when I used to love Slide and then it just got idiotic. It was so cool, but seriously...why would I want to destroy something I worked so hard to create with idiotic glitters and sparklies? I shit my pants whenever I see any of my pictures glitterfied. SHIT MY MOTHERFUCKING PANTS...

Widgets...I go absolutely nutters over Widgets, but I can't exactly plaster all my blogs with widgets. It looks idiotic and so cluttered. That's probably what it looks like now in fact, but there are so many widgets to try that I go fucking apeshit throwing them on my blogs. I have so many blogs that I can't always take the time to put the same widget on each blog so each page always ends up looking screwed up. Like some ADD 'tard on too much medication was just handed a Monster and let loose on to unsuspecting internet victims. HAH! That's me to a T.
Oh yeah, Yedda. This little wonder is...wait, what the hell is it? I saw a widget, something about asking a question and that was it. My brain exited the building and I signed up. What the fuck is my problem with widgets?
Who cares. I'll just let the widget do the explaining.

Utterli And Me
WOW. Talk about taking the piss. Now, making money is making money and no one can blame a company for providing a great service on the internet for "free" then taking it back and charging for that same great service. Gcast, though, is seriously off their rocker. Why oh why would I ever pay $99 a year when they're limiting those that pay to 2 hrs per day? WHY?
"FREE? Really?
Yes, the basic service is FREE. Beginning April 1, 2009, podcasting by phone will require a yearly subscription fee of $99.* To purchase a subscription, contact Matthew Sewell. Uploading and listening to podcasts will remain free.
* If you use more than two hours of phone time in any 90-day period, we reserve the right to cancel your service and refund the unused portion of your fee after deducting a pro-rated amount for the number of days used and an overage of 9 cents/minute for usage over the 90-day limit. " http://www.gcast.com/?nr=1&&s=253406016
I used this service when it came out (might have been a beta in fact). Meh...
So, how much is too much I ask? As most of you have noticed there isn't as much going on around here as there used to be. I mean there is, but it's...different. I suddenly realized why that is, aside from the marketers bogging things down of course. No international callers. Most of the voice utters I listened to were from overseas friends in different parts of the world. How sad was that? I mean that they were cut off that is.
With all of the companies Utterli utilizes for crossposting you would think that some income was being generated through those affiliations but is it and would that alone be enough? How can it be? Why can't Utterli make use of all those great features companies like YouTube provide it's affiliates? If we opened ourselves up to more sharing perhaps that could open up another revenue stream? If we allow users to embed videos or pictures actually driving traffic back to those sites somehow couldn't a site like this make a killing? I have no clue because I've no idea how that really works.
I have an ulterior motive of course. I want to use Utterli like my base of operations. It should act as my multifunctional, full service blog station with all the bells and whistles known to man.
Listen, I'm no one. I have nothing to really sell. I'm just a girl with nothing better to do at the moment (hold on, answering phone) ... yeah, than answer the phones. I use my blogs mostly to archive bits of my life and the world around me at the moment simply to pass the time.
I work fast, I'm good at my job and because of that I may end up with absolutely nothing to do but answer phones some days. Even when I'm busy I'm surfing the net, leaving comments here and there or just reading. In the last 9 years I've probably taken a total of 5 lunch breaks. I'm not joking.
Basically speaking I really only use sites like this if I have access at work, it's functional and it's entertaining. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less, simple. I'm searching and have been searching over the last 3-4 years for the perfect spot. I'm searching for my own veritable smorgasbord of blogging tools that lets a simple user like me fully enjoy all of the internets wonders from one little place. Why? I have no idea actually. No clue.
All I know is I want it first, I want it now and if I can't have it I'm leaving in a huff. I'm warning you. I'll whip my hair around and stick you in the eye with it. I'll break out with my ghetto neck move...Don't make me get my neck on!
(LMFAO! The only one that's going to get that title now is my husband. lolz *snicker*)

My Eyeballs Are Burning Orbs Of Fire
Cetaphil

My Review of Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer on Drugstore.com:
My eyes are still on fire.
Last night I sat on my couch withe Dr. Miracle's Healing Oil in my hair. I put the lotion on my face first so as not to contaminate my hands with the Oil and accidentally get it in my eyes. It was the first time I ever used Cetaphyl with SPF.
It wasn't long before my eyes began to burn and I felt stinging all around my eyes. I thought It must have been the Oil so I immediately rinsed my eyes. It still stung, but it was better. Before I went to bed I applied some of the lotion generously, being careful not to get it in my eyes. Again, my eyes began to sting so I shut them tight and jumped into bed. I figured it has to be my hair.
Today, I opened my eyes and they stung just a little. I figured rather than suffer all day long I would wash the Oil out and be done with it. As soon as the bathroom got a little steamy my eyes burned again. I tried to keep my eyes under water as long as I could after the Oil was all rinsed out. Every time I moved away from the water my eyes began to sting again. It was starting to get annoying. I was sure I was being extremely careful.
Once I was out of the shower and my hair in a towel my eyes felt great. No stinging. Must definitely be the Oil... I began to moisturize my face again, this time only using a very light amount to prime for my makeup. My eyes stung like a very nasty chemical got in them, but I didn't get anything in my eyes. The skin all around my eyes puffed a bit and it stung all the way down to my cheekbones.
It actually burned so bad I couldn't open my eyes at all. I've poked my eyes with mascara. Like literally poked a giant glob of mascara on my EYEBALL with the wand. It hurts and it's no joy, but never have my eyes burned like this with a moisturizer. Not even the crap I'm actually allergic to. My husband had to lead me to the bathroom to wash my face.
STILL, to be quite sure, i tested it again on one cheek making sure i don't put it anywhere near my poor sore eyeballs. The eye on that cheek began to sting again and the skin began to get warm.
That is NOT cool at all. NOT COOL. What the hell did they test this stuff on? I use Cetaphyl because I'm allergic to nearly everything else on the market. It's the only cream I can use. I trusted it. It was the only product I actually trusted. I'm horribly upset because I'm sitting here wasting my time pounding away on a keyboard I can't see and squinting at a monitor that's now hurting my eyes so much I have to turn the lights down.
I don't understand how they could put a product like that on the market. I'd love to know how this was tested.
*****
I can't help thinking of the Johnny Cash song, Ring Of Fire...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down,down,down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns,burns,burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.

The Maw
The Maw was just released on the Xbox Live Arcade on the 21st and it's the cutest game I've seen this year so far. For an Arcade title it's more than worth the MSP's and as soon as I add more points I'm adding it to my list of Arcade titles.
The story revolves around a little blue alien called Frank that runs around with a purple blob like pet named Maw. You navigate Frank in 3rd person mode who then drags Maw around on a leash while gobbling up every little creature in it's path. The more Maw eats the bigger he gets.
I know that doesn't sound like much, but to tell the truth I like to play games for the story. The gameplay has a big role in my decision and sometimes so do the graphics, but the story line is what really reels me in. So far the developers of The Maw have managed to wrap me up in the storyline from the start and that's what I enjoy the most.
If you can keep my attention for more than 5 minutes with the intro and not make the controls so complicated that the trial takes forever to get started then you just might get me to add more points. :)
My Rating: 7.46 lol

Arkadian Warriors
I usually just play the demo's in the Arcade and never buy them. There are actually quite a few that I would love to buy, but I don't throw my Microsoft points away unwisely. Plus, if it's not great, I won't have it take up space on my Xbox. Of course, because I shared my box with Rigid for a long time I didn't always have a choice.
Whatever the case may be, I remember kind of liking this game. For an Arcade title that is; not enough to buy it though.
This is a "so so" version of countless other dungeon crawlers and pretty much not my bag. The character classes include "Soldier", Archer", and "Sorcerer" that you can play with one other gamer on Live.
As in most of these games you'll gain experience as you vanquish your foes filling up your battle meter as you go along to morph into a phoenix, lion or dragon, depending on the class you choose.
It's too bad it just didn't have what it takes to impress anyone. Even ING gave it a mediocre rating and I deleted it after about 2 or 3 goes.
My Rating: 3.5
Fun Fact Quiz: IGN & Gamespot both gave the same rating. What was the rating out of 10?

Maha's XLA Review: AegisWing
This game came out a long time ago on the Arcade as a freebie and I have to say it was one of the BEST freebies I have seen in EVER on the Live Arcade.
This side scrolling shooter blasts you through screen after screen of enemy fighters. It has been compared to the famous "Bullet Hell" sub-genre of manic shoot-em up video games as it almost completely bombards you and your team with endless bursts of enemy fire.
You and a multiplayer team of 3 other gamers can log on and enjoy the mayhem together. The power ups and health pickups aren't great, but very necessary. You can also choose a navigator and connect your ship to theirs for bigger better blasting power, but beware of those tight spaces! It's always the ship in the back that gets it first!
This game is just nuts so if you haven't tried it go for it. I'm actually not sure if it's still free, but I've never gotten rid of mine and every once in a while you'll still see me on it.
My Rating: 8.5
Fun fact quiz: In the summer of 2006 three Microsoft interns where chosen to create this title. Who might they be?

And I quote, "It F'ing sucked. It was a bad remake of the original. Why?"
I have no idea what he's talking about, but I'll take his word for it. There are few vertical scrolling games that I would actually recommend. Quite frankly they bore me and if I have to mash buttons to play you can definitely forget about it.
When asked what rating he would give it he gave it a 3.5.
Ah well, so much for my first review huh?
