(Untitled)
That moment when you look back on old entries and marvel over how your writing voice has changed.
(Also, I love how I say I'm going to do NaNoWriMo every year and while I do usually get started on a story idea, I also usually create an entirely new idea when half the month is over. This? This is why none of my ideas ever really get completed.) -
It's been ages!
I feel like I fell off the face of the earth. To be fair, it's probably because I started blogging about books and that became all consuming. Wait, I take that back; Tumblr might've had a lot to do with that too. -

ugh! >.> '
You'll have to forgive my medium small font, I like fonts small--why this is, I have no idea (wait, that's not true, I think they look neater when they're smaller). Anyways! Valentine's Day, yeah. >.> ' I have spent--no joke--every Valentine's Day to date single as a the dang last leaf in the fall that won't come of the branch. Do I enjoy it? No. ( Read more... ) -
a week of letter writing
If you think I'm kidding, I regret to inform you that I am not. It is highly possible that this entire week will be dedicated to letter writing. Monday and Tuesday are for buying stamps, postcards, cards, rubber stamps, rubber stamp ink, cardstock, and I'm thinking that's it. Still, that's at least $50 going -poof-. On the other hand? It's entirely ( Read more... ) -
power of the pen
New post, as I sit here at an odd hour for me to be awake. Yes, you heard me, 7:30 am is not a usual Shy Reader operating hour. But seeing as how I've got... -counts- four letters that I need to wrap up (and then stamp hunt for) this could take a while. Though, it is break time as otherwise my power to spell words correctly will fail and I'll be ( Read more... ) -
louboutin love affair
Don't get me wrong, I love shoes in general and in particular, I really, really love heels. Lately, I'm rolling in heels and not in flats. Why? Because the added height gives me a boost of confidence and I seriously walk taller/straighter. Now for the past two years, I've heard a girl I used to hang out with lust over Louboutins saying that when ( Read more... ) -
tea & thoughts
Alright, it's closing in on 3:00 am and that's when I intend to sleep tonight. Why? Because my deployed friend asked me when I intended to go to sleep, I told him I'd sleep at 3, and in case he calls, I want to be awake. Yes, it seems silly but if talking to me makes him smile, it's worth it to me. That said, this guy is an ex and still a friend. ( Read more... ) -
thoughts of the new year & years past
I'm up unusually early for me today, and I'd have to say that it's likely because I stayed up this morning (in the 2:00am set) to chat with one of my guy friends (on AIM which can be rather evil) as he's getting deployed... again. The guy just came back from a deployment last year, re-enlisted, got to his new unit (and has been with them for ( Read more... ) -
thoughts at the end of '09
Usually, I play Horde and I play Horde because the little brother plays Horde and I can usually talk him into running me through instances. But lately, I've been playing Alliance, and that's because I'm bored off my rump and they're a tad more friendly in Kael'Thas than the Horde. So where you at BPAL friendlies? What server does everyone play in? ( Read more... )
