Allow me a moment to be sappy, it doesn't happen often...

As I'm typing this, I'm rather heavily medicated. You've been warned.

I've been pretty sick the last few days. Sunday, the boyfriend had the day off from work so I spent all day in bed and had him home taking care of me like the awesome boyfriend he is. He got some stuff for me Monday before he went to work and my mom ended up bringing me some stuff at 11 PM. Mind you, my mom has to drive 2 hours from her place to get to where I'm at then another 2 hours to get back home. I do appreciate her doing what she does for me.

I hate getting sick. I have a weak immune system due to low white blood cell count. I've tried a lot of different ways to boost my immune system but none have really worked so far. And I'm talking years of trying different things, not just months. I've had this issue since I was a little kid. It sucks. And I stay away from people that are sick as a general rule because when I get sick, I'm down for days even when it's not something serious. Which ends up irritating the hell out of me because I hate laying around doing nothing and feeling like crap and not having the energy for anything. Hopefully I can kick this crap in the next day or so and get back to being my normal self. :D

I have to say though that I have some really great people in my life. I had several offers from people willing to bring me soup, juice, Gatorade, Kleenex, medicine, cough drops or anything else I needed. Granted, my boyfriend had me taken care of and made a couple runs to go out and get stuff for me and my mom brought me some soup, Sprite, medicine and Jell-O as well. So, I'm covered. Still, it made me smile that I had people that I knew weren't just offering to be nice but were offering because they wanted to make sure I had everything I needed. In the past, I've had people offer to do things yet if I actually wanted to call on them for help, they would suddenly be busy or have a reason why they were unable to do what they had just offered to do minutes prior. I know without a doubt the few people who offered to bring me stuff or risk their health to come keep my sickly self company weren't just offering; any of them would have brought me what I needed if I wanted to take them up on their offers. It's nice to know you have some people in your life that you can count on. And even better knowing they care enough to offer things when you need them without even asking for them. It's the little things that make me happy, obviously. Thank you to those people, I appreciate the offers and the concern.

And I appreciate the well wishes on Twitter and the people sending me goofy stuff and jokes to put me in better spirits. That stuff really helps, too. It's so nice to know so many great people in the world, in real life and online, too.

It's always good to let the people in your life know how wonderful they are and how much you appreciate having them around. Whether they're family, friends, a significant other, online friends or what have you. There are so many unique and interesting relationships in my life and I'm happy to know so many good, kind, caring people. Even if I don't get to see or talk to some of them as often as I would like to. I still need to take more time to let them all know that I appreciate the times they've been there for me and how much I enjoy having them be a part of my life. I don't think people do that enough which is sad because it takes so little time to tell someone how great they are and how happy them being a part of your life makes you. I'm guilty of that because I'm just not an emotional person. I tend to come off and rather detached more often than not and it's not that I'm cold and uncaring, I'm far from it, being emotional just makes me uncomfortable. I much prefer logic and things that don't involve gooey messy emotions and warm feelings. :p

I really think it's the medication bringing it out from me tighyt because I'm not normally so sappy, lol. Anyone who knows me well enough can attest that me being emotional or sappy just doesn't really happen. It's all good, though. Once in a while, it can happen I suppose. :D

I've got some great antibiotics now and they should start kicking my ass back into good health. Sooner rather than later, hopefully.

Happy Tuesday!

Rant, rant, rant...

I had originally planned to post my review of the LELO Gigi today but.... after my interview yesterday afternoon, I started feeling really crappy again. I had been feeling sick for around 2 weeks, then I felt better for a few days, then yesterday it hit me again and I started feeling like shit. I spent most of the afternoon and evening laying in bed so I didn't get my review completed. Even though I spent most of the day in bed, I didn't sleep at all. Awesome. I hope this shit doesn't get worse. NyQuil, do your best, okay? Thanks.

Speaking of the interview, it lasted for a little over an hour and a half. The other two girls that got there at the same time as me left 30 and 45 minutes before I did. I swear, if I spent that much time talking to that dude and it doesn't result in a job; I'm going to pull my hair out. That was my 4th interview in 3 days. I have 2 more today, which I will hopefully feel better for. Then I have another on Tuesday. If none of these work out, I might possibly have a nervous breakdown. Not really. I'm too strong for that. :D It's just so damn frustrating and I'm so broke. And not like other people who are "broke" but have their parents giving them money for gas, eating out, seeing movies, buying junk they don't even need, spending time with friends, etc. I have a friend who's unemployed and not even looking because between her parents and her husband, she's got her bills and other expenses covered. Yet, she always complains about being broke because them giving her money "doesn't count" because it's not "her own" money. I go to job interviews and sometimes have to have my boyfriend take me to them because it's the only way I'll get there. And then I sit at home the rest of the time bored out of my head and trying not to feel worthless because I'm not working. That's not even the half of the troubles either so don't judge based on that but that's pretty much all I'm willing to share, honestly. So, it annoys me when people whine and complain to me about how "tough" they have it when they're doing better than a lot of other people are. And it irritates me more when they don't even realize they don't have it as bad as they think they do. It makes me want to bash their heads in and open their eyes. Hell, even as shitty as stuff has been for us lately, there are still people who have it worse off than we do. So, I don't complain which is why you've not seen me blogging or tweeting about anything like that over the last several months. Though, my mom was awesome and wired me some money (my family lives in CA) for medicine and stuff last week because I couldn't afford any medicine. If you're someone online and this upsets or offends you, it was only a rant about people in my real life so don't take it personally. Though, if you do take it personally, you might want to think about why it irks you. But anyway. Sorry, didn't mean to rant there, lol.

Seriously can't believe the Blackhawks swept the Sharks yesterday for the Western Conference finals. Now the Blackhawks will be playing in the Stanley Cup Final... against either the Flyers or the Habs. I honestly expected Chicago to win it. I predicted they would do it in 5 games. Possibly 6. I didn't think they'd straight up sweep the Sharks in 4 straight games. I expected the Sharks would have a little fight in them and at least win one game. Oh well, though. Now to see who from the East is going to make it. Most people I know are on the Philly bandwagon now since they're leading the series.

I have comment moderation on right now just because of the annoying amount of spam comments from bots. Also from an annoying "anonymous" person who keeps trying to engage me in some petty online bullshit. I don't get sucked into drama very much in my real life. I'm damn sure not getting sucked into internet drama. It's just stupid. Plus, I know who it is and why they're pissed at me. If they (you) want to discuss anything, they (you) can e-mail me and act like a mature, grown, adult.

While I was laying in bed last night at some point, I was watching In & Out with the boyfriend. I hadn't watched it in a few years, though. I saw a news story on the local news that reminded me of it for some reason, so I got into my CD/DVD binder and pulled it out, happy I still had it and happy it wasn't scratched. While I don't think the ending is all that realistic in most cases (which is sad because I would love to see the opposite be true!) I do love that movie. It's one of my absolute favorite feel-good movies.

I'm done now. I'm going to take some medicine and pass the fuck out right now. Hopefully, I'll feel better tomorrow.

Happy Monday!

Urgh urgh argh...

I've been feeling unwell the last couple days. At first, I just thought my allergies were being more obnoxious than they usually are but as the day went on, it became clear that wasn't all of it. I think I have a sinus infection or something along those lines. I had a mild fever but it seems to have hit the road, thankfully. Not fun. I would like it to feel better very soon, please and thank you.

Fangs and his boyfriend were in town yesterday and they were super awesome and brought me over some minestrone soup and some Gatorade. They wanted me to come over the Fang's sister's house and eat chicken and stuff off the grill but I wasn't up for that. So, they brought me soup and Gatorade before they ate and got down with their Rock Band for the night. <3 style="font-size:85%;">(No, NOT Crosby.) I just thought it would be great to see Montreal make it to the conference finals. Which they did. I had a feeling after they scored their first goal 32 seconds into the first period that it was going to be a good game for them. And it was. You could see how bad they wanted it and they came out and got it. Good for them. Something that does piss me off though? Seeing all the Penguins "fans" saying that Marc-Andre Fleury needs to go. I'm not saying all the Pens fans were saying that but I saw a lot on Twitter and other sports websites saying that. Seriously? He had a bad game but I think Fleury is a damn good goalie. Your precious Penguins offense isn't entirely what got you to the playoffs and kept you there for as long as they lasted. A killer offense won't win a game without some good goal tending and some good defense. In my opinion, Fleury is a good goalie and just because he didn't play well yesterday, so many fans start shouting "trade" now? That pisses me off, no matter who the team is. I can't stand fair weather "fans" of any team. That's the end of my rant there. The Chicago/San Jose series is going to be interesting for the Western Conference final. I don't like either team but hey, one of them has to win to go play for Stanley. The Bruins/Flyers need to finish it up so we can see who the Habs will be playing for the final in the East. Flyers won last night to force a game 7, by the way. No worries, once hockey season is over, I'll have baseball to talk about. Exciting, right? ;)

Happy Thursday!

She has a sense of humor...

Got a text message from my friend, The Model, yesterday. It made me chuckle.

"AR there is a bra by VS that supposedly makes u look 2 cupsizes bigger! STAY AWAY FROM THAT BRA!"

I replied back, "No worries, VS doesn't even make bras in my size so I never even go in there."

The Model, "Haha! Whew. They prob don't make that particular bra in your size anyway. With tits as huge as yours, you don't need to look 2 cup sizes bigger."

She speaks the truth, lol.

So while I was texting with The Model, I had an idea. I haven't done a "Through Their Eyes" post in a long time. I did the first one with Boyfriend, the second with The Artist and the third with Fangs. I explained it to The Model and asked her if she wanted to do one. She said sure, I told her I would e-mail her the questions and to get them back to me when she could. Two hours later, she sent me a text to let me know she had answered them and e-mailed the questions back to me. Sweet! She's so busy, I was expecting it to take several days but she didn't have anything planned Monday night so it gave her something amusing to do. Yay!

For those who have never read one of the "Through Their Eyes" that I have done,this is the way this goes. The first 10 questions are for The Model. She answers them about herself just to give y'all some random information about my friend. Then questions 11 through 50 are questions she answers about me in her own words and her own opinions. I don't edit her answers and she's free to say what she wants. So without further adieu....

-The Model

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There we have it. I have trouble doing these because most of my real life friends don't know about my blog so I can't just ask them to do these for me, lol. I have a few friends who know about it and a couple of them haven't done one of these yet so I'll have to hit them up and see if they will be willing. Though, someone gave me the idea to do one with bloggers who have followed me for a long time... just make it shorter and change the questions up. I'm not sure on that one though. I might just have to make up an excuse to get friends who don't know my blog to answer a quiz about me and use it, lol. We'll see.

I'm feeling better. Thanks for the concern. I've been sick for a little over three weeks now but I'm doing tons better than I was. Stupid flu. I'm glad I'm feeling better. I have toy reviews, emails, blogging, resume updating, ebay listing and tons of other junk I need to get caught up on doing. I am way behind on stuff because I've pretty much been in bed and sleeping a lot in a medicated state over the last few weeks. Awesome right? It's all good.

Happy Tuesday!

Oh, hi.

Yeah, my hair isn't black anymore. Two weeks ago, we had a family get together and my step-cousins wife was bored. She's been a master stylist for 14 years and owns her own salon. She was bored and wanted to do everyone's hair. She was offering body wraps too, lol. So, I asked her if she would trim my hair up, fix the layers the last girl that did my hair tried to do but fucked up. She said she could fix it so I was happy. She asked if I wanted color. I asked if she could do purple highlights, lol. She could but didn't bring purple with her. She asked if she could do something to it. She played with my hair and asked if I wanted to go lighter and I said sure. I told her to do whatever and I'd trust her judgment. If I hated it, I could always fix it with darker color later. So my hair is a mix of dark brown, copper and orange. I actually like it. I love the way she did the long layers she did with my hair too. Of course, I'll get better pictures to show off my hair. Eventually.

It's pretty obvious I haven't been blogging much. I haven't had the free time honestly. I wish I could say it was because I have a real full time job and that's why I'm too busy to work. That's not it though. There's just a lot going on that I don't feel like typing up yet. Family stuff. Issues with other things. Trying to do this and do that. I don't have any free time to get online to do much. I haven't had time to blog, to read other blogs (which sucks because I miss reading y'all!), e-mail, participate on the few other websites I like or even read the freaking news online on a regular basis. Sometimes I go a few days without touching my laptop. Nice to know that while I miss all this shit, I'm not going crazy without it. Though I already knew I'm not the kind of person who freaks out without the internet. It's only a small part of my life and when I have too much real life going on, it doesn't bother me to not get online that often. I'm sorry if that sounds bad because I don't mean it to be bad or insulting in any way at all. Though, I do wish I had time to blog every day again and read all my favorite blogs on a more regular basis but whatever. Such is life. ;)

For those that have asked about my grandparents, thanks so much. My grandfather isn't doing any better. He's doing worse actually. They don't think he'll make it passed Thanksgiving. Sucks. I'm going to miss him so much.

My dad and 22 were both here to visit for a week. I tried to spend as much time with them as I could before they went back to California.

LS has been here for two weeks now. She's leaving in a few days. She'll have been here three weeks once she heads back to California. She's thinking about moving back home to Texas though, she misses it here. Most of her stuff is in CA still though and she still has a job there (working for dad has it's perks ;)) so she wants to get a couple more paychecks if she does decide to move. Smart kid. I can't believe my little sister is almost 19.

I didn't realize how much I missed Dad, LS and 22 until they all came to visit. Watching my dad leave at the airport... I just wished he didn't have to leave. I wish we could all live in the same state again so I could see them all more. I probably won't see Dad or 22 again until next year. If LS doesn't decide to move back at the end of the year, I won't see her again until next year either. Yeah, I love my family. We're a weird, close bunch and I don't dig hardly ever seeing them. Anyway.....

I've been sick for a little over two weeks now. Sucks. I went almost four whole days without being able to talk because my throat was swollen and my voice was just gone. It fucking sucked! I talk a lot. I couldn't stand not being able to talk. Plus, we went to the Stars game on Monday night and I couldn't cheer or yell. That was torture. I had to settle for clapping, whistling and stomping my feet. The Stars lost that night too. Doubly sad. Though they played the Ducks in Anaheim last night and fucking won! Hell yes. Didn't get to watch it but I listened to the second and third period, lol. I'm SO happy hockey is back! Love love love love love it!

Last but not least... Aside from the fact that today is the birthday of three of my real life friends, today is also the birthday of on of my blogger friends! The intelligent, sweet, witty, lovely Another Suburban Mom! Go wish her a happy day now! =)

Muah! =)

*Cough*

No Incubus post today, sorry. If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen me talking about my boyfriend being sick. Despite taking Airborne like an addict and pounding back medicine, I still managed to get sick. So I feel like shit today. I was going to still do the post but it requires more energy than I have to spare.

On a fun note, the lovely and very cool Vixen featured me in her Friday Favorite's post this week featuring a few of her favorite half naked images from this week. Which is totally cool because she always picks photos that I think are just damn gorgeous and I always grin when I see she's picked one of mine. Thanks doll. ;)

Here are a few music videos. First one is "Perfect Skin" by The 69 Eyes. The second is by Blindspott and the third is by Embodyment, both titled "Yours Truly". I don't imagine most of y'all will dig it but some of you might, lol.







If I feel better after much sleep and medication, I'll post a Saturday Survey tomorrow. If not, sorry and maybe next week. ;)

Happy Friday y'all!

I'm trying hard to re-arrange but some say it's the hardest thing to do,,,,

....But that's just too many days without you
And I know what they say, about all good things
Will they come to an end but I'll fight this time
So that we might have a chance at this."

Tuesday I still wasn't feeling much better. A little bit but not much buuut I'll take feeling only slightly better over feeling slightly worse. I had to go up to work, on my day off, for the only reason I ever go up there when I'm off, to get my paycheck. (Yay pay day!) and go put it in my bank account.

Then it was off to the store. I was looking for medicine and needed some bathroom supplies and personal products as well. To which I must veer off subject for a moment and bitch. The last couple times I've gotten sick, a day or two in to being sick, Mother Nature gets a sense of humor on me. She thinks she's one seriously funny lady. By that I mean I get sick and then a couple days into being sick, I start my period and I start it DAYS EARLY. So I get to be sick, feel miserable from that and deal with cramps and all that bullshit that goes along with the monthly cycle of having the wonderful thing known as the female reproductive system. Seriously, including this time, the last three times I've been sick this has happened. I don't find it near as funny as the folks in the cosmos do. Anyway back on track. I also needed a box of Klennex because I can't stop fucking sneezing. I sometimes sneeze so hard I fear I'm shooting out brain matter. They didn't have the medicine I was looking for which is cool because the stuff I have seems to be working fine and I forgot the damn Kleenex again. Second day in a row I've forgot to get them. Ugh. I'm sick of using toilet tissue every time I need something but oh well.

I also rented two DVD's for $1 each. I got What Happens In Vegas and Tropic Thunder. I saw What Happens In Vegas back when it came out, Boyfriend and I both thought it looked amusing and went to see it one night when we were bored. Tropic Thunder, I had not seen yet.

So after watching What Happens In Vegas, YB, LS and I started watching Tropic Thunder. I think we got 20 minutes in, if that far, before we quit and took it out, lol. SO happy I only paid $1 to rent it. Seriously, I'd rather watch a Will Ferrell movie over having to watch even 20 minutes of that again and I can't effing stand Will Ferrell's movies.

I think I'm gonna rent Swing Vote, Righteous Kill or Max Payne next. One of those 3. I'm loving the $1 DVD rentals now, lol.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans is out Friday! Fucking finally. Yaaaay. So excited.

I actually kind of want to watch Repo! The Genetic Opera but meh, I dunno about it. I want someone I know and trust their opinion on about movies to watch it and then let me know if it sucks complete balls or if it's semi decent to put yourself through or vice versa. I might just, you know, watch it for free and then I didn't waste anything but time if it really sucks.

I was bored and browsing around a website I love. I love pictures that tell a story. I love pictures that need no words to understand what is going on in them. I love even more pictures that do need words because what you see isn't all that is being conveyed in it. Sometimes you need the artists perspective to pick up on subtle things that make it that much better. My favorite thing about the picture I posted? (Image by TheoGoth)

The rays of light coming through the branches. I love the tree with the bare branches too. I wish I could see what this shot looked like in color though. I do absolutely love black and whites but sometimes, I wonder about the colors that would have been there instead. Rich and full? Lacking and lifeless? Shiny and bright? Shadows and rays of light? I love a good contrast as much as I love a simple black and white shot.

Something I also love in edited pictures is selective coloring. Click it, it's pretty. ;) The one thing of color surrounded by everything else in shades of grey, white and black. Even if it's a few items in color set around grey, white and black, I just love that effect. I think it looks so cool.

*Not all are work safe!* Also love this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot, this shot and this shot. All the links are a look at some of my favorite works by the awesome deviants of that website and again, not all the images are work safe so it's best not to click them if you're at work. ;)

Anyway..... =o) Enough of my ramblings. Have some questions. Or not. I always put these last for anyone who wants to skip them in favor of the real reading. ;)

Wednesday Weirdness #39

1.) Do you drive with your hands at 10 and 2 on the wheel?

Nope. =)


2.) How long do you keep cards given to you on birthdays and holidays before throwing them away? If you don't throw them out, what do you do with them?

It depends. One of my friends, Artist Guy, makes up his own Christmas cards every few years. He draws them out and they're multiple pages of crazy art and silly cartoons. He makes these for 30 to 40 people, friends and family and then sends them out. Not a single one is the same ever. They might have similarities but he always adds in a few things that are unique to each person he's making the card for. He usually starts doing these in August so he can get them all done in time. I still have the three I've gotten from him in the time we've been friends because they are the coolest fucking cards ever.

Store bought ones I don't keep that long. If there's something particular that really strikes a nerve in me, I'll keep it long enough until I write down the lines or phrases I want off the card to remember and then toss the card. I keep homemade cards for ever because they're unique. Not another person has ever picked up one of those cards and given it to someone else because the generic words were perfect for them as well.


3.) If, when you die, you could will any one of your characteristics to your children (child/future children), what would it be and why?

Oh I have no idea. I don't even want a kid to tell you the truth. I never have and still don't. I know people tell me this will change but I have reasons why I don't want a kid. I'm even going to share them when I answer Smiley's interview questions this week. *grin* For the sake of the question since we're pretending... I would want my kid to have my ability to stand up for what
I believe in, even if it's not what the majority believes in.


4.) What is the best personality trait you got from your mother and the best personality trait that you got from your father?

I get being logical and analytical from my dad, I dig that.
I get being creative from my mom and I dig that too.


5.) What is something that you wish you had a better understanding of?

My boyfriend's mind. Sometimes, I just cannot understand his logic and it's frustrating, especially in a disagreement.


6.) What makes you nervous?

Tornadoes. Tornado warnings and watches. They freak me out. I'll go out in a hurricane and I'll sit outside in pouring rain watching thunder and lightning but tornadoes, even warnings of one, make me nervous.


7.) What is the strangest household object that you have ever or would ever use for help in masturbation?

Oh... I'm not even answering this one. Lol. =) Those who need to know do know and those who don't can always ask away from here. Not saying you'll get an answer but it never hurts to ask, right? Lol.


8.) What do you have sitting on the counter top in your bathroom?

Let me go look, lol I don't have a little wall cabinet and the cabinets underneath have clothing in them and other products. I don't have a room technically so I keep tons of shit in the storage space of the bathroom downstairs since basically no one but me really uses it for anyway. So.... Shampoo, sea salt soap, tampons, hair care products, facial care products, toothpaste, toothbrush, mouth wash, eye drops, deodorant, candles, lavender chamomile powder, sunscreen, hair brush, blow dryer, body butter and a bottle of rum. I need to put the tampons back under the counter. The rum can stay but don't ask, lol.
