what color my text should be

Alright well in typical brandi style I want my blog to look the way I want it to look, but I really don't know how I want it to look.
I tried reading the help thing to about my Template (And Yes Dr G. I actually read it) but I really didn't understand much of it. Well I did actually understand the articles just not the template computery script that says what my template is.
Anyways I think I like my background the way I have it now. But I want my text a fun color..
As some of my other colors were a little hard to read I had to re-publish my posts (see I did figure out how to do that).
So heres where you all come in... Now I really don't know how many "you are" other than Dr. G and Susan. But anyways I was thinking you all could vote on my text color. Ok thats it these half days of work this week are really giving me too much time on my hands.
Hopefully none of these turn out too hard to read. I did figure out that the bright dark colors are a little difficult.
Well let me know which one you like.

Being lazy

Ok i'm not really sure how this whole thing works but oh well if anyone actually reads this they will just have to deal with it. I figure that if I write on my blog all my annoyances then I don't have to keep re-telling all of them. And since i have a lot of them I should have tons to write about. This is really just a theory we will see how it turns out in the end.
Ok so as most of you know I have an amazing ablity to be hugely lazy. This issue has reached the extreme as of late. Mostly since meg and bets. moved back to Chicago. So pretty much its all their fault. I have a hard time understand my lazyness aspects because they really only relate to my home life so to speak. While I'm at work I always do twice as much as others, but at home I can't really even seem to do half as much as others. And some of the things I can't get up the engery or the will to do are so stupid because they would take like literally five seconds. Case in point:
When I got home from work Saturday I was just chilling on the couch watching some Six Feet Under. I probably went to bed early as I had to work at 7am and for those of you who don't know that means I have to get up at 5am becuase I live like a bajillion miles away from where I work. Anyways before I went to bed I made the decision that it was just too much work to plug in my cell phone.
Two things that are important about this are that my cell phone, though it is super cute, will not hold a charge for more than five minutes (which in the real world = 1day), and second is that I knew I was going to work at both of my jobs that day. That would mean my cell phone would not have been plugged in for two days. And Though it will actually still be "on" its not actually function as more than I time telling device because as soon as I would try to use it, it will die.
Anyways at like 930ish I was on my way home from work, in the sleating, snowing, raining mess of a night that it was, and of course my phone ringings. So I answer it, and on the other end is Nick my best friend, who I haven't talked to since December, who is in Iraq, who everytime he calls I miss his phone calls because I'm working, who I didn't even get to say goodbye to before he left because I missed the damn phone call because I was working.
Oh and big surprise as soon as I pick the phone up I start hearing that little noise that makes me want to snap my phone in half and throw it out the window. Needless to say I only got to use it for about five minutes. At which time it died and instead on snapping it in half and throwing it out the window I had to settle for beating it on the steering wheel of my car. Only because if I did break the phone and throw it out the window I would have to buy a new phone, and in the lazyness that is me who knows how long it would take me to go out and do that.
On the plus side I have been insuring to plug in my phone everynight before I go to bed. But it really has only been two days so my new commitment hasn't really been tested.
