Got a nice big package from UPS today. Used my bonus points at work to order Rock Band for my Xbox 360. Awesomely fun! The easy mode of the solo guitar seems easier than the easy mode on Guitar Hero, but I'm not complaining. However, the drums were a lot harder than I'd expected. The singing, I knew I couldn't do, and I actually scored higher ( Read more... )

Haven't posted lately. I've just been so sick. I caught a really bad flu a few weeks ago, I was sick for a week, weak and wobbly, and then I thought I was over it. I had a free night at Planet Hollywood (a hotel/casino on the Las Vegas Strip) and spent the night there. When I woke up I was violently ill. I made it home (I hate taking the bus ( Read more... )

So, my points at work start to fall off on June 1st. Until then, one mistake and I'm gone. So, I'm taking as much time off this month as possible, so I'm in even less danger of accidently being late or getting in trouble. I've actually got a weird week because of this plan: I got off on Monday night, was off Tuesday and Wednesday, I go back to ( Read more... )

I know I've been scarce around here lately. FaceBook is just so much easier to update that I tend to forget LJ, especially with all of the stress in my life lately. Once we get situated in the new house I hope to update my LJ, especially with fics, more often and more regularly. Until then, here's an update ( Read more... )

I've not been posting as much lateley as I'd like, so this is the catch-up post ( Read more... )

I'm so tired lately. I don't get anything done; not the writing project that I started, or the rewrite that I'm supposed to be working on, or the drawing lessons that I'm supposed to be practicing. I hardley have the motivation to read most nights. I can't take a real vacation right now, not with the house and my financial issues, but I do have ( Read more... )

I want to stay positive, but, damn, life kind of sucks lately. I haven't felt great lately, so with the amount of time I took off when I felt sick my p the house waakishly small. My closing date on the house was supposed to be yesterday, but now it probably won't be til sometime next week. And I need to come up with an extra $1000 because my ( Read more... )

It's so hot. The temp is over 100 outside, and it feels almost as hot in my room. I've had matenance in four or five times in the past two months, and they almost always tell me that everything is fine. It's not! My air runs 24/7, and the livingroom feels okay, but the bathroom and the bedroom are at least 80 at night and hotter durring the day ( Read more... )

First sunburn of the year. Considering the fact that I'm so pale (I'm a redhead with a German and British heritage) that I almost glow in the dark it was bound to happen sooner rather than later, but it's still the official sign that summer has begun, at least for me. I walked up to the bookstore to pick up the new LKH novel, wore a tanktop, and ( Read more... )

Where has this year gone? I can't believe it's already the first of May 2009! Then again, I'm running a week behind everyone, so maybe that's part of the problem. I had some stomach problems last week, so I took off early on Sunday, went to work but took off as soon as I got there on Monday, I've got Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday off, and then I'd ( Read more... )
