This year I want to be able to pause at any given moment, and ask myself "Is what I am doing right now something I really want to do, or something worth doing even if I don't want to be doing it?" and "Am I being the kind of person I want to be?" and have the answer be "Yes ( Read more... )

This just seemed like the best place to make a nice tidy list of links. :)

Best:
Yellow Daisy - Five petals, pointed, open spots at the tip and base of each petal.
Basic Star Flower - Five or four petal versions, mostly open petals, pointed, open center.
Croco Flower - Seven petals, pointed, overlapping, slightly open petals.  Fancy pinwheel shape.

I'm a bit of a geek.

Last week when I was at the mall for my lunch break (Subway, eat fresh!) I passed a Hallmark Christmas ornament display on my way out and was delighted to see a Star Trek The Next Generation Enterprise ornament.  Just now I remembered it, and decided to see if there were any for cheap on eBay.  I discovered there's a Future ( Read more... )

This week started out with a bang!  Kristy and I went to Las Vegas to see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian before they close the production down in September.  I would say it was amazing, but that hardly seems to cover it.  I was so excited about it as the show started that I actually teared up a bit.  Which I felt a little silly about, but the ( Read more... )

So... I haven't posted in months.  It's not so much because nothing happened, or because I didn't want to talk about what has happened (at least not in the "I don't even want to talk about it!" burst into tears sort of way), it's just... limited ambition I guess.

For the last few months I suppose all my energy, mental and physical, has been mainly ( Read more... )

I finished a framing order for Batman today.  Well... okay, so it was just for a normal guy who happened to be named Adam West, but it still amused me ( Read more... )

So a while back my cousin tagged me in a meme.  Memes can be fun sometimes, but I didn't really feel like doing most of this one... it involved a lot of coming up with random facts about yourself, and asking and answering questions, as well as posting a photo of myself.  For some reason, in most of the photos I have of myself, I'm in some sort of ( Read more... )

I miss my car already, and it's only been gone for a little over 24 hours... well, I guess being useless ammounts to the same thing as being gone, so I've really been missing it since Thursday.  I went out to go to work and it wouldn't start, so I had to borrow my parents' car.  Then on Friday I was dropped off and picked up from work because we ( Read more... )

So... I finally caved and bought these shoes I've been eyeing since the beginning of January on Etsy ( Read more... )

Okay... I've been home from work for an hour and a half now and I have yet to get going on the cleaning I was planning to do as soon as I got home. :P

So much for being all done by the end of January. I can still get a lot done though... and it has been working out well so far.  I just need to prod myself into action somehow.  Go clean!  Wooo!

Okay, ( Read more... )
