Happy New Year
And so we begin 2013.
I have decided against any memes for this because in all honesty, I really do not feel like looking back. Looking back always brings me misery. I'd rather look forward because that gives me hope.
Sunday I finally got Take 2 of fixing my kitchen sink taken care of. It was a pain in the ass. But I also got to spend quality time with Kindergoth and that was nice. We celebrated New Years Eve a day early since the inlaws were taking her yesterday. I built a huge fire in the fire pit outside and we roasted marshmallows, had chicken wings and when it got dark, we started setting off fire works. She hates the noise but loves the sparkle. It started raining while we were playing pyro though, so we didn't get to use them all. Then that night she fell asleep on my futon while it was still in couch position and I didn't have the heart to move her. She looked so happy and comfy all nestled in the fluffiness of blankets and my super awesome mattress pad. When she woke up yesterday, she asked if she could have my futon in her room... So I switched beds with her. It works out well actually because even with the fluffiness of my super awesome mattress pad, I still felt the bars of the futon dig into my hips and it was starting to cause me back problems. Now I have an actual bed in my room and I can sleep comfortably.
Unless I end up having my bed taken over by Gibbs like I did last night. He's not a puppy anymore and he takes up a lot of space.
I spent my New Years at home playing Guild Wars 2. No surprise there. Part of me is debating on joining another guild simply because I want to do more dungeons. Something that I can't do alone. I'd bring it up to my guildies but... they all have lives that exist outside of the fantasy realm which means that the majority of them are never on. It's such a petty thing but I do miss being in a guild that is more active. I doubt I will leave my guild though. I will probably just continue to stand outside dungeons and join in on random groups who give up constantly because they get tired of dying.
On another note, I got a Christmas card from my dad containing iTunes and Amazon gift cards. It was unexpected but nice. However, the writing inside the card was a bit of a let down. Another promise to visit me.. I think I have a journal entry where he said he would visit me last June.. or the June before last, I don't know. Point of the matter is he keeps telling me and promising me he will and he never does. Christmas, Spring, Fall, Summer.. whatever. Just like he has done all my life with various promises. I guess some things will never change.
Perhaps I should just show up on his doorstep. All I will pack is my desktop since it is small enough to fit in a suitcase now.
