*falls down* [02 Oct 2006|04:41pm]
[ mood | annoyed ]

So we have a contract on the house. FINALLY! October 30th is the day to move. That's fantastic.

However, I get to deal with this crazy thing called Mother now. She's going nuts. We have to pack right now apparently. I think she's lost her mind. We've got freaking thirty days to do this. It won't be that hard. Plus, I enjoy my evenings and I am not planning on giving up every evening and Saturday to spend a few hours packing then take a break because she is tired. No. I will figure this out and do it at my pace. It will be done and, done right - without bothering me to no end.

Not only that but, we are having this debate over the location of my office in the new house. Look, all this time I've worked from home and my office space has been in the family room or my room. What is the big deal now? She thinks my room is going to be too small, and the spare room won't work out. So...she wants me to get a laptop and replace a PC so I can work anywhere. Well yes, great idea if I could afford a laptop like that. Right now..no. So, she is debating fronting me this laptop so I can work anywhere at home and not be bothered. Not a bad idea really...

The show on Saturday went well! I was so happy and encouraged by the positive feedback! I can't wait for the next show woooooot! It's going to be even better. Speedy and I are learning to communicate with each other off the show and, really meshing well on the air. I'm very happy with how things are going.

Alright. It's time to eat and I am hungry. I haven't eaten yet!

Well, today was fun. Sort of busy. Last night was a late night but, I had some fun company to keep me awake. I slept until 1PM! Can you believe that? Ughh.

I ended up with some singing practice (Yay singing!) and worked out. So far, a productive day. I cleaned too because...man my kitchen floor needed swept. I just can't stand dirty kitchens or dirty bathrooms.

Did some work for WoW Radio. Got ahold of a few more people for TB and set up some more interviews. We're chatting in Vent and I'm in the kitchen. I hear my name on the speakers and I run back saying "Wait, I was cooking..what's up?"

Tb says, "You are promoted to head of PR. Congratulations."

...Well shoot! I sort of boggled for a moment but, had to run back to the kitchen. Hey..can't beat that, can I? Best yet..I still get to host User Interface and of course, host Working As Intended. Sheesh! When did I get so busy? Of course, this means my lack of social life will be even more so. Ahh well, that's OK. As long as I enjoy what I do - it doesn't matter.

I have a social life, it's just not as active as it was. I've gotten comfortable with the fact that I talk to a lot of people that may not be so close to me. I go out when I can and I'm content being at home when I don't go anywhere. I still get things done and still enjoy myself. Anyway...I'm going off blabbing now.

All in all, I'm extremely happy with how things are going. Being productive is fun.

Where have I been? [26 Sep 2006|01:29am]
[ mood | tired ]

Ok so I've been busy. I know..it's awful. My poor out-of-state friends are like "Where has she been?"

I am alive! I promise. I've just had a lot on my plate. What with the house still being on the market, opened houses every weekend, taking odd jobs here and there (I'm a frigging PA) and WoW Radio.

..Oh yeah. *blush* I'm a show host on WoW Radio. *grins* That's right...the first show goes live this Saturday at 12PM EST. You must tune in! www.wcradio.com - it's going to be amazing. Well..maybe not amazing but, it will be a lot of fun. Speedy is a great host and I'm so glad he got me this opportunity. I'm really stoked.

We all know me. What do I love doing? Entertaining! However I can yeah?

ZAAAAAC! Starbucks! Starbucks! We must go. I'm in desperate need of a night out at Starbucks. Let's schedule one soon. I think we're due for our "human contact" evening. *laughs*

This song...is...so addicting...wow...*bounces to the bass* This is one for the books.

Soo last night was rather memorable. My friend Zac [info]peppygrowlithe and I hung out. We had a lot of fun even though all we did was sit at Starbucks and load up on mass quantities of caffiene. Then, he came here and met the Molly dog! ...Everyone must meet the Molly doggie. I'm not sure what we didn't talk about. We talked about so many things from WoW to RP to other people we know to our lives and our parents...*head swirls* Lots!

It was so nice to finally get out. I haven't gone anywhere since April. Sometimes, I really hate the fact I've lost so many friends. But, I got to thinking about it and, like I told Zac last night, I am really enjoying the new friends I am making. People like Zac, Todd, Matt - they're just great people. Even though they don't all live right here in South FL they are awesome people and have the potential to be life long friends. At least I hope so.

Ahh today is just good. Why? I don't know. I'm happy. I think I know why though. *grins*

I am so embarassed. The technician came in today to fix the broken dishwasher door. You know..the one we bought about two months back. So, he comes in takes out the screwdriver and puts it in the latch. He pushes it up and shuts the door. Problem fixed.

Doh! *facepalm* A week and a half of no dishwasher and that was all that was wrong with it! ARGH. I can't do anything but laugh because it is funny!

Brandon got new ink! I told him I was going to kill him though. It's on his neck. Ughhh. He's scarred now. Oh well. It's his thing. I can't say much about it. I tell him time and time again "This is why I get piercings. You can take them out." My brother never listens to me. I will say, his artwork sure is nice to look at.

On a side note. I finally have the last piercings I will probably ever get lined up. That's right people. I'm getting another hole in the ears and the nose will be re-done. When? I don't know but, it's going to happen. *grins*

Have you ever looked someone you were talking to right in the eye and said to yourself, "I can't trust this person. I don't know why but, I know I can not."

Oh yeah. I don't know why but, I think I am going to find out. I can not trust this guy and there's something about him I don't like. I'll figure it out. Hmmmm...

What a weekend [17 Jul 2006|03:19pm]
[ mood | content ]

So this weekend I got around to seeing Pirates 2. It was a great movie. I really liked it and the cliffhanger at the end! Oh! Alright. No spoilers. I promise.

I will say I was impressed with the CGI. It was awesome. The fight coreography was amazing. My Mother went with me and, at one fight I said out loud "This coreography is amazing..look at that!" She turned to stare at me with a face that said "What?"

I like the fact this movie brought some more Maritime history and legends into it. However, I was suprised at the dark aspect surrounding it. Disney doesn't normally go so dark or violent. It was good but, not at all for children. Can't wait for number 3!

So, I had to get the nicotine patch back on this week. The cravings aren't too bad but, the past week was bad bad bad for me. That's OK. I kept saying over and over "I'll beat this in the name of Jesus." I am praying so hard. I really don't want to smoke anymore. I just hate the irritable side that comes out and the snappy bit. I can be that vocal as it is...I don't want it to be worse based on not smoking. I know..it won't last long but, I don't want it to last at all. :-(

My darling Human Priest was retired...for more then one reason. She's an Onyxia raider now *grins*. However, I have a new Priest and, she is a Deader. Here is her story. Archived because I can...and I rather like how it turned out.

I am rather bored right now. Nothing to do until...2 when I go work out. I finished typing. So what am I up to? Well..let's see..the house is clean. I could write more but, I am not in the mood. I don't want to play WoW. So, I sit here drinking coffee and troll forums. It works well.

Eventually, I will have something to do but, for now I am bored. However, I think this is a bit of gold that must be remembered.

" (( Yay! *hugs* ...You know my favorite care bear was always Funshine bear. But, I liked the Care Bear cousins a lot. Especially the lion. ...Nostalgia moment here...

*Suddenly, people from all over World of Warcraft see this thread. All of the drama lovers and trolls' eyes grow wide. Then, they begin to cry like babies wondering over and over "Why can I not be mature like these people and not make drama?"

Then, they go be pirates that do good things and say "yarr!" a lot. Blizzard blames us for the massive money loss of many accounts due to reverse piracy on the high seas* ...That's what really happened..true story. )) "

That was my most recent forum post. Once in awhile, I come up with the doozies.

I need to do something with my hair. I don't want to change the color again though. I am trying to think...I've had blue, pink, green, purple, blonde and bright red. There's no color left. I sure did like the pink and purple streaks. It's just not practical now that I do that adult thing *sighs*. Ahh well, I do have colored extensions for a reason.

Next thing on the agenda...nose pierced (again) and a second hole in each ear. That about does it for me with piercings.

Hey look. Coffee mug is empty. I need more coffee.

Anything I said... [10 Jul 2006|09:08am]
[ mood | awake ]

I finally got some sleep. I felt like I haven't slept this whole weekend even though I was feeling terribly bad. This whole opened house thing about did me in. The worst part...not one person showed up. Not one. Amazing.

So of course, Mother is terribly depressed now. She dropped the price on the house and, that hurt. She was so certain it was the right price. *shakes my head* I don't know...she gets these ideas and I wonder. I know Mother says she prays hard about her choices but, sometimes I wonder exactly what she thinks when she makes some decisions.

Oh well. We had a really good talk yesterday. I explained a few things to her and,once again I had to practically claw through to make my point. *bangs head on the ground* I'm getting tired of this!

I did make my own choice. I've been getting depressed lately. I knew that but, never said much to anyone about it. I decided that as of today I am going to really push myself to pick back up. I'm starting a new work-out routine, going to change the eating habits a bit and get on a better schedule. Just some small changes but, they really make all the difference.

I hate feeling depressed and feeling down. These past three weeks have just been kicker on me. I like being the hopeless optomist most people know me as. Being quiet and all moody doesn't quite suit me at all. ...I must be emo. >.>

So..it's 9:15 AM and I am awake! I'm ready to go too! Got lots to do today and I am so ready to get it all done. Very good deal. Thank God. I am so glad I got some sleep and I woke up ready for a new day and a new start. So..just say a prayer and I am off!

This is going to be a long archive but, it’s one of the best RP’s that ever happened. The posts are all done by different people and, many of the actual RP was in-game but, the adaptation is great.

So without further ado here is the archive of “Hauntings”

[ mood | blah ]

I don't know if it's the weather or what but, ughhh sinus headache. Last night, I swore I was getting a flu. The odd thing was, I didn't feel sick or anything. I began to get a headache and then my body started to ache - just like a flu. I just didn't feel any other symptom. I'm fine today though.

One of Mother's friends from church is here to fix the fence. It's a very nice gesture and I'm really thankful he did this (for free...no joke!). This guy is cracking me up though! He's in his early 50's, long hair in a ponytail and a beard going on - total hippie. He even talks like it. Alright...so I have to admit, when I met him I heard him talking to Mother and thought "Wow..he sounds just like Tommy Chong!" He does! He's totally cool though, very laid back guy. Poor dude is going to be so hot in the humidity though. It's so nice of him to do this.

I was playing WoW last night and, got into a conversation with some people. It was interesting to finally get to know some of them on a real person basis. Something I said got to me though...one of them was talking about how some people have such problems in real life all the time. Another woman mentioned some of these problems are made-up. How true. I typed in, "We all have problems but, some more then others. I wish my life was as 'normal' as it used to be...but, since I separated from my ex husband a few months ago, things have been crazy."

I realized how right I was. It's just been a non-stop stress fest since then. The divorce, dealing with him, losing friends, remodeling the house, deciding on moving, trying to sell the house and trying to move. It's one thing after another. ::falls down:: Can I get a break please?

I seriously miss the more "normal" life that had trivial issues. These days it seems like there's something always popping up. I'm not digging that at all. I think once we move things will be much more calmed down...that would be so nice. I feel almost like I don't want to tell people what's going on these days because I am afraid they are going to think "Wow..what is up with this woman?" I am going to be really happy for the day someone says "How did your day go?" and I can say "Ahh pretty boring..not much happened." Oh please Lord! ::laughs::

[ mood | disappointed ]

Disappointing is not the word for today. What a gyp. First, I find out my buddy is getting a divorce. That seriously sucks. Poor guy has been trying so hard to work it out and, he loves her so much. She just doesn't want him anymore. *sighs* Man, I feel bad.

Then I find out that the job I had for the next two weeks fell through. I can't believe it. I am so...I'm just so down over this. I was so excited and so stoked. I hadn't had some work in awhile and this was just a breath of fresh air. Now...back to the grind again.

Man, I want to move so bad. I'm so tired of sitting here in South FL scraping for money every second. I have jobs waiting for me in TN - the house just needs to sell!

Ahh well. So, I said good-bye to Feathermoon last night. I was really touched. Some people I have gotten to know there for over a year. Many of them were asking for my e-mail address, and messenger names. Quite a few even gave me their phone numbers. Now see, that's why I like playing these games...not just for the content but, for the fact you can make friends from anywhere in the world and, no matter whether you play or not - you have made a friend. That's a big plus and, I am glad to see how many people did want to keep in touch and develop friendships.

Ahh well. Patch 1.11 came out today. This means I re-spec my newbie Mage and get to kill Scourge on my Hunter! Woot! ...I'm a nerd. I admit it.

Bit of random stuff here.

First; New job start Thursday. Nanny-riffic! That's right, I'm going to wrangle me some kids for awhile. 12 hours a day. Woot!

Second: I have entirely too much caffiene in this house.

Third: I should not listen to Aqua when drinking too much caffiene.

Fourth: I'm bored and Thorium Brotherhood went kaboom.

This leads me to the following conclusion....I'm calling Todd!

When no one is watching.. [18 Jun 2006|12:17pm]
[ mood | contemplative ]

Father's Day. Normally, I forget it's even Father's Day. I know, to most people that sounds terrible. However, I have a valid reason. My Dad died 8 1/2 years ago. Both of my Grandpa's are gone as well. So, for awhile now I really had no reason to celebrate the day. It was just...Sunday in June for me.

It sort of still is but, it seems Father's Day always has a bitter-sweet tune to it now. Instead of giving the gifts to my Dad and Grandpa's, I end up remembering them in my own way.

Last night, before I went to bed (OK so I went to bed super late after a late-night geek marathon >.> ) I was thinking over the fact it was Father's Day and just thanking God for being my Heavenly Father. I began to realize how many people have stepped in to my life and my brother's life and put themselves as a "Dad" figure. I began to name them off and realized there was a lot more than I thought! I started to thank God for them and asked he bless them so much.

Then, I began to think of one specific person.. More... )

So on Father's Day here is to men God has put in my life. Men like my Dad, my Grandpa, my Pap and George. Men who have helped pave the way and show me what a good man is. Thank You, Lord for men like that.
