HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

A little late but family, work and computer problems have kept me away from the internets. Also I just generally fail at LJ these days. I've gone from posting too much to hardly ever updating. I can't even keep up with comments :( This year, I'll do better.

I've never been nominated for anything before and I'm super excited about this.

2) Wimbledon is stressing me out this year. It's ( Read more... )

I had some free time today so I enjoyed the sunshine, ran some errands and trolled the internet for funny!
