Story time, kiddos
Approaching Christmas 2011 I got an invite from this guy I was dating. He was nice and cute, if somewhat goofy. He asked me to come over for Christmas Eve, which I accepted. He hadn't told me that in Germany it was the norm to have the full Christmas celebration on Christmas Eve. I brought flowers and severely under dressed. Him, his brother, sister and mom all got me fairly nice gifts. I was rather embarrassed, and a little pissed at the guy. That night he called me his g
This is Stupid Hypnos. He's an indoor cat, and he somehow managed to get his leg sliced open. He's super sweet, but a couple tacos short of a combo plate. Anyways, we went to visit the scary lady that always gives him shots, and had to be put out to have his leg stapled shut. You can kind of see the wound in the picture. Needless to say, Stupid isn't very happy right now. Poor Stupid.
The staples come out in about a week, but until then he's slightly drugged, and limping bad. He's just so
We're having a campout tonight, me and my husband. An alternate title for the entry could also be called the very very very very very very long weekend. Srsly, it was bad.
It starts Friday morning, rising at 8am. I generally get up around noon, so that in itself was a feat. Got all our stuff packed and left the house. We drove an our north to pick up my hubby's best friend, and then back south, down the 101 freeway towards Santa Barbara. Drove about 5 hours, and dropped off the said friend (
So, this time last year, I was getting dolled up for a fancy shindig in my honor. I donned a pretty white number with Swarovski crystals adorned with a wine colored sash. I made a binding legal contract with some dude I had been shacked up with for a couple years.
This morning the same some dude fed me breakfast in shower. It was delightful.
Anyways, it's my one year wedding anniversary. May we have 50 more just as happy as this one.
29 years ago today the most important person in my life was born. My husband's birthday is today, which means we've almost been married for a year. This time last year we were scrabbling to organize a wedding we didn't want, and while it was stressful, I'm glad we got to spend it with the people we love.
I'm the luckiest woman alive. I get to live with my best friend, my glorious lover, my husband, my world.
Happiest of birthdays to him, and may his birthday night be ...unmentionable. :c
Chick problems within, you have been warned.
For those who are reading and don't know, I got married last August. This night before my wedding my step mother-in-law, who is extremely blunt, said to me that my biological clock is ticking. I'm aware of this. I turned 29 last month, and with all of my medical issues, I've been repeatedly told by doctors as well. Apparently, once I turn 30 my ovaries will fall out or something.
My father-in-law has also hinted that he thought we were alr
Hoping to see knickers were you? Naughty.
Anyways, I painted about half of it. You can see where I stopped at the top, because I am a tiny person. All it needs now is the floor (yes, that is concrete), to be wired, and furniture. Yay!
I'm visiting some relatives right now in Southern California, and we couldn't have picked a better (or worse) time to come down. It's beautiful right now, with all the plants in bloom. Particularly the fruit trees that aforementioned relatives own. I ate peaches fresh off the tree for dinner. They were amazing. Also, allergies.
Anyways, I got a picture of a solar pillar, which is an amazing atmospheric phenomenon, and apparently fairly rare. Unfortunately, I only had my phone on me, so it do
My husband and I are having our house worked on. About 1/3 of it is being redone, and while I'm incredibly excited about it, there's one part that I absolutely hate.
This. Room. Is. Too. Big. I call it the extrovert room, and while it also encompasses the kitchen, it's just a monster of a room. And so to mollify me, I get to choose the colors. Sort of. Keeping others in mind, I chose three blues that looked fairly light. The fourth I was thinking would be the master bedroom color, but I think
My husband is pretty stressed right now. We're broke, and that's causing him a lot of anxiety. His business isn't going great either. People seem to have a lot of "helpful ideas" for him that are anything but. He's also kind of freaked out because my birthday is coming up, and he likes to do nice things for me. I appreciate that, but even more I appreciate him. Stuff is nice. Things are great, but I care far more about his mental wellbeing than another pony toy, new clothes, new arrows for my bo
I'm having kind of a lousy day, but I came across this, and thought it might be fun to share.
I'm working on a young adult novel at the moment, and read popular books from the genre as research...Including...yes...Twilight.
And then to torture myself more, I watched the first two movies.
Apparently there's a whole youtube channel devoted to this guys work, but he does lip readings of movies. He recently released one for Twilight 3 or whatever the hell it's called.
Found an iguana on the road, it had been run over a few times. It may be paralyzed, or it's just really cold, so cold its not moving it's back legs...Or rather his back legs. Turns out finding out the sex of an iguana is just one more free service I offer. Anyways, he's on the way to the humane society. If he's paralyzed, he may have to be fostered, in which case he would come to live with us. If not, he'd go up for adoption, assuming he's not so badly injured he has to be put down. His tail is
I don't generally so blatantly rant, but this has been an issue with me lately, so I'm going to bitch. Fair warning, don't read it if you don't want to hear me whine.
I have a physical disability. Sometimes, it's worse than others, but basically because of a severe laxity of the collagens in my body, I'm double jointed in every mobile joint. If the joint moves, mine goes beyond what would be considered the normal range of motion. This makes the joints unstable, and easily dislocate. The actu
So it seems people are slightly curious about me. I recently joined the staff for the forums, and yes, I haven't been here all that long. However, there was an opening, I applied, and got one of two open spots, mostly (but not completely!) based on one of my past job at a major gaming company.
I live in California, and yes, I am older than a lot of the people that frequent the forum at 28 years of age. I'm also recently married to a wonderful man whom I met on the internet. He isn't a brony,
