And I Will Love This Love Forever


I want to be a good woman
And I want, for you to be a good man.
This is why I will be leaving
And this is why, I can't see you no more.
I will miss your heart so tender 
And I will love
This love forever
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/cat_power/good_woman.html ]
I don't want be a bad woman
And I can't stand to see you be a bad man
I will miss your heart so tender
And I will love
This love forever
And this is why I am leaving
And this is why I can't see you no more
This is why I am lying when I say
That I don't love you no more

Cause I want to be a good woman
And I want for you to be a good man

Rest In Peace



I haven't had to deal with much death in my life (knocks on wood).  And recently a family member passed away and I am very sad of course.  I hope she is in a better place.  I hope she knows that she was loved.
~RIP~

Change

I have moved.  Things are going good.  I said goodbye to a life I loved but was hard in many ways.  I know I made the right choice.  Things will be much different but I will just have to take it one day at a time.

Be Strong




I have to be strong.  So strong that I don't even believe it's possible right now.  Emotions need to detach completely to have this situation work out.  I don't know if I'm strong enough.  I will try though.....

Gary Numan - The Fall 'Full Studio Version' from Dead Son Rising


Happy 2012!

I've never been a big Gary Numan fan. But last year I discovered that he came out with some new music thanks to a great online radio station. And I got SUPER hooked on this particular song. Just love it!

I've been so tired with this new year...I don't know what's up with that. And it isn't even snowing here in Detroit, which is very very rare for January. But the day is over so quick. I mean the sun is gone, poof, vanished...and it's 6:30 pm and it really feels like 11:30 pm, errrgh.

But anyhow hope you enjoy this song and hoping your new year is going well so far!
~XoX

MIA


I'm still here! I've still been posting on Facebook, blah erggh...yeah I know most you Bloggers don't like it. And I don't blame you most the time.

So DAMNED IV came & went. Want to see some pics? Give me some motivation, haha.

I haven't been up to much honestly. Same ol' same ol'. Won't be another art show for a while...March I think. Unless something pops up. And that's fine, I have so much art & have worked on so much this year, that a break is a-OK. But I still draw almost every day. I love drawing...it's very comforting. And I don't have to make a complete mess, woo.

Been listening to lots of music. Some great albums came out this year, including the band above, Imperative Reaction. They didn't tour Detroit (which made me wanna cry!) but I think they'll come around before too long. {They are one of my fave bands} Music is always inspiring...sometimes motivating...always comforting.

Hope you're all doing well. I miss you Wench & Sullivan. You are my Blogging buds to the end. Love you two. ^_^

Adios amigos~ XoX, Eve

Off to court and Update


...in a little bit for my driving ticket. Kinda scared but everyone at work said it'll be fine. Soooo I'm trusting 'em....:) I just don't like the idea of it all....never been to court before for anything. Would be SWEEEET if they waived BOTH the points and my fine.....but really just wanting 'em to waive the points cuz that would suck if not. I only got one ticket in my life before-for speeding a while back-so my record is pretty clean! So I guess I'll see what happens. Wish me luck and chat with you later.~

UPDATE @ 5:45 PM: Everything went well. I didn't get any points-yay! And the judge was super cool....to everyone! Probably because she was a WOMAN...just kidding. But seriously, she let almost all the peeps that testified I saw 'off the hook' with the points...but still having them pay their fine or reducing the fine. You either said "Responsible" "Responsible with Explanation" or "Not Responsible." If you say NOT responsible, you have to raise your right hand & swear to tell the truth....etc....

I was responsible of course....crossed too many lanes to get to the other side (the turn around across the MAIN road)....& I'm never doing that again. I mean it! I've been a very cautious driver since that ticket....I'm an ANGEL on the road I tell ya! ^_^ (Well, I do still speed through SOME yellow lights...but hey, you can't be perfect, right!??)

I plan to write just a tad more about this incident on my personal blog...cuz something CURIOUS happened that I don't want to chat about here. It's nothing bad...just something I don't wanna talk about here, tis all....& curious of course. Again, if you'd like to JOIN/FOLLOW that blog, please leave your email address in my comments. Or send it (if you don't wanna put it in the comments-I will delete it after you leave it though) to my email which is...ghostgirl6@gmail.com & then I'll send you the TOP SECRET link. ;}

Thanks and take care all.~

We got a new ___ at last! Plus, some more random cell pics

Hi everyone. This 'part' concludes all the random cell pics I have in my "cellphone pics" folder. But yes, of course there's more back on my memory card. I'm learning how to edit myself, but tis hard when I think everything is so bizarre, beautiful, or ___ (insert whatever word you'd like there)....in some shape or form. Curse this camera phone!!! ;}

So anyways, I got some VERY VERY good news to talk about FIRST. We will be getting a roomie soon. Yay, and I couldn't be happier! I was REALLY stressing because from May until now (and for the rest of the month too) cuz things have been a bit tough since losing our roomie Joe. Even by getting rid of certain things & less spending in general, it's been...hard in some ways. But we found out TODAY that Mike's best friend, TJ, will be moving in roughly at the end of July/beginning of August. So things will be tight next month too but I think we'll be ok (here's hoping!).

And the even better news is IS that he's very handy around the house (and with cars & all that guy stuff)...not saying Mike is stupid (because he knows a lot too)...but TJ is an electrician and just knows things Mike doesn't. AND, he's going to make our basement BETTER-meaning put up a wall for his room. And when he moves out, it will be much easier to try to find another roomie because that person will have that privacy. (But he said he'll be with us for a couple years...so again, here's hoping for that!)

AND (are you sick of these AND's or what!??), 2 cool things: 1-since he is Mike's bestest bud & they go places together, he can DRIVE him sometimes & not me...and they can get out of my hair for a bit too. 2-he's our 'music man' meaning, he is the music behind our band (TJ, Mike, and I are the Bloody Little Girls, soon to be Heartless now...ha ha)...so we can start making some music again. Yay, I gotta start writing some lyrics again!


OH & ONE LAST BIG thing since TJ is moving into our basement, I get Joe's old room as my new art room-yes!!! A whole room for my art (well, Mike will have a few things, but that's fine!) Soooo...Good bye basement (and kinda cramped area down there) and HELLO to a room with a view & more space.

Mike and I moved up all of my stuff up this afternoon. Whew, that was a lot of work-I had crap on crap on crap down there...and now I gotta organize it so I may be MIA until I get that in order. I just had to start throwing things in paper bags at a point because I didn't keep a lot in storage. I mean it's so crazy in my new room right now that I don't even know where ONE of my items is that is FOR SALE right now on my Etsy shop, yikes. (So, if any of you want that hand mirror right now, please don't get it cuz it's MIA. I know you prob won't but just wanted to share that!)

OK, now to the pictures. These are the oldes of 'em all...but I think I'll be able to remember what they all were. Enjoy 'em and I hope you have a good week.~

hello kitty paint-its...but come on, you know i was tempted. i didn't use their paint though. i used my regular acrylic paint. and look what i created below...

...a crazy (joker-like) Hello Kitty...
ha ha ha...

...and the back...
mike said 'why don't you paint the next one normal?"...
I said...I did paint her normal.
well, atleast for me!

some peeps saw this on my goth blog.
it's my BIG lambi.

courtesy of my somewhat new CROP.
^_^

i don't know what happens to me in the night some times.
i woke up to this on my arm one morning.
i guess my PJ shirt was sooo tight, that it left these marks...
and they hurt too for a while that morning.
what!!!???!!! odd stuff.

from an Asian store...
it brings GOOD LUCK...
when it's tassels blow in the wind...
it's next to my kitchen window...
and it helped cuz TJ is coming!

from the Asian store also.
he (a cute lil' round piggy) brings...
luck with money...
he's on our front door...

hm, he's kinda been working...
cuz we don't have a dry bank account yet...
and (knocks on wood) that THAT will never happen.

here's a truck by the Toys R Us I used to work at for 3 years....
sometimes i miss it there...
was really fun in the beginning...
met a lot of nice people...
but that was my job before my current one...
(at the library)...

and I NEVER EVER want to go back to retail again!
it wasn't the worst place to work,
but again, i like it better at the library...
there's weirdos there too...
but i just didn't like dealing with money...
& the insane parents during their kids birthdays & holidays, yikes!!!

just got my ears pierced cuz one of my holes closed up...
and this will be my 1st pair of earrings i'll wear once i can take these studs out...
o my, how am i gonna make it 5 weeks with these in...
night & day?
just wanna rip 'em out some days!

Adios for now my amigos!!!~

Tomorrow....

...we are getting a new cable & internet provider. Which means we have to move so much crap. I'm REALLY not looking forward to moving my entertainment center in my bedroom. We JUST put it up several weeks ago (Joe gave us his when he left). All my Dunnys are there (all nicely placed & everything) as well as stuff I just don't want to move. Sooooo not looking forward to this.

But I hope it's worth it...meaning: hoping the service will be good and that both the cable and internet will work the same as before. Because right now it's really good-super fast & only acts up once in a while. The new service sounds like it'll be a good thing though. One thing is really cool-we can tape something in one room & then watch it in any room in the house. Well, that only other room w/a tv would be the bedroom, but still, that's great!

AND we're getting a whole bunch of weird channels that I can't wait to check out. And looks like some good (normal) ones too. But NO MORE HBO, which is good in some ways because we rarely watch it...and it costs a freakin' fortune (that's part of the reason to why we're changing). Bad that about not having HBO is I'll be missing my shows that include: Big Love, True Blood, and Flight of the Conchords (if they do another season). There's probably another show or 2 I just can't think of at the moment. But I can always rent 'em once they come on DVD. So that's good!

OK, almost done. I might be chatting with you tomorrow. And here's hoping everything will work out w/the moving of crap & getting the new service! OMG, 3 posts on here, as well as one on GOTH blog is enough for a single day! You'd think I wasn't doing anything but writing but no, I actually had a long appointment, went some places, and well, 'browsed' online too. And I finally checked my FaceBook account too...hadn't been on there for days. Not that it matters much. I don't think it's really as great as people led me to believe. Opinions?....Agree/disagree??? Well, farewell for now friends.~

A Lil' of This & That and I got BUSTED for...

...looking at porn at work.
So, do you believe me?
I hope not cuz I was just teasing. ;}

But I did get busted this morning on my way to work by a police officer. You can see his car in my looking-glass (mirror) as he's writing my ticket. You know how you turn out of somewhere (anywhere) and sometimes there's another turn-around right in front of you...but there's a sign that says something like Right Turn Only?
Well I went straight across the street...I have a bad habit of that simply because I'm lazy. So I got busted...darn, and I was having a good morning at home...& this happens right before work!

I think the officer said 'disobey(ed)' like 3 times...ugh! I'm not that bad...but now I know I can't be lazy any more and must turn right ONLY. :)


What lies below is some other stuff...
that's been going on in my life lately.


Darn these for not working today!
They are Asian good luck charms that I got from the Asian store...
right before it closed.
Aren't they sweet looking?
I only have one hanging up right now...
maybe I need to hang 'em all up.



My good friend Jennylee and I went out to a cool new sushi place the other day (well new to me) and I loved it there. I felt like I was in Japan for the hour...hour & a half we were there.

The people were very VERY friendly and the food was awesome-both in taste and how it looks. Jenny took the above pic of our food before we ate...
everything!!!

Sorry yours was SO spicy, Jenny. :(

I ordered some sushi called 'Christmas.'
Yes, I'm serious it was really called that.
See the red sparkles...pretty, hm?
They are actually fish eggs BUT you can't taste 'em.
Very lovely and yummy!


After sushi, we each had a shot of Absinthe at her home.
Both of us were Absinthe-virgins before Monday night.
Tasted...interesting.
Smells and tastes like black licorice.
Makes you a lil' woozy about a half hour after drinking it...
but not too bad...like if you had some Nyquil.

Thanks Jenny & (your) Mike for letting me have a bottle...
no, it wasn't full....it was an empty one...
but that's cool because it was a sweet bottle
(as you can see above).


Got Tori's new CD today...
since I ordered it off of Amazon.
It's pretty good.
My fave song so far is 'That Guy.'
Awesome packaging...
and I'm excited to see the videos...
which came with the deluxe version.

Work was good today.
There was a full-time meeting all day...
and I'm not full-time...
so we didn't have any supervision,
woo hoo!

So we got a lot of the leftovers from their meeting.
Oh my, I had a sandwich, fruit...
(love the strawberry above & how it's cut)...
and wayyy tooo many pastries.
But they rarely have that BIG of a meeting,
so it was ok to pig out a bit.
;}

Have you met my future husband, Ryan, yet?
Well, I haven't either BUT his show,
Paranormal State,
had it's finale on Monday night.
It was really great.
Dracenea says so too! :}

A lot of my shows are ending for the season....
:(
but a couple are also starting up.
Like new Intervention episodes,
as well as a brand new show on A & E called...
Obsessed.
It's about peeps with OCD.
Should be interesting.

Oh, and here's a shout out (to myself!)...
Please visit my other blog...
For the Love of Goth...
(link to it above).
Because if you can guess close...
to how many buttons are in this drawer,
you could win a nice little prize pack.
I need some more guesses so I'm plugging it here. :)

I'm anxiously awaiting the above print by...
Jasmine Becket-Griffith.
It's Alice & Lewis Carroll...
(author of the 2 Alice books).
Jasmine is going to personalize the back for me.
It was my first purchase off Etsy.
And it didn't cost more for it to be personalized.
What a deal-only 13.99 for an 8 x 10 print...
shipping was about 4 bucks.
Yay! So cool. I'll post it once it arrives.

Got this cool (childrens) goth book for cheap at Borders.
Think I'll include it in an upcoming giveaway on...
my other blog because they were BOGO free.

I'm getting my hair dyed THIS color tomorrow...
finally!
Doesn't this girl have an awesome cut & color?
I know the cut wouldn't look right on me...
but I love the color.
I was SOLD by this pretty girls' face & hair,
I must admit.

OH & THIS POST is...
my 300th post on here.
Woweeee....
what the heck did I write about...
for the past 6 months!??

~Hope you all have a good one!!!~

Heads Up!

I bet you guys know what this pic means...well, maybe you do by now. (Think I've used it once or twice now.) If you can't tell (which I'm sure you can), this pic means I'm a bit frustrated (stressing) at the moment.

So now I'll give you all the first heads up...and the first stressing thing going on. And that is although I prefer to respond to some of the comments you all leave me via my email, I'm going to have to stop that. :( It's actually getting a bit hard, so from NOW on I'll be responding directly on the comment page with the rest of you. I know it's hard (especially if you follow several blogs) to keep track but it's what I got to do right now. So please know I'm sorry in advance. BUT I will continue to use my gothiclolita@innocent.com address for all Blogger purposes (that will probably always remain on my profile and in the corner of this page). If you're a blogging friend that I regularly chat with, I am still using my Yahoo addy...that's not going to change.

Another stressing thing. Since you asked Dracenea, and since it's true, yeah things have been a bit stressful figuring out how my boyfriend will get to work every day since his dad no longer works with him. (My boyfriend does not drive or own a license.) And I have sleeping issues (I take medication for insomnia) so it's very hard for me to get up & be alert at the time he needs to be taken there. I did it today but we're thinking about other options. Guess we'll see what happens. *If you'd like to read more about that kinda stuff (cuz I wrote about Mike not driving & his dad losing his job, etc...), it's over at my other blog found HERE. Also, please visit there to see a post I wrote yesterday about my Bestest Blogging Friends and an award I gave 'em. That was one of my most special posts to have ever written! :)

Alright, last thing. I have a busy day tomorrow so I'm not going to be able to do my new photo-story game called In "Other" Words. So if you have participated, or would like to participate (please see previous In "Other" Words posts), I just need ya to save it for next week, k?!? Thanks so much. Also with not doing my new game please know that I may not (I always say may because sometimes I go back on my word) be posting as much this week...on all 3 blogs. But like I said, I'll see how it goes.

I hope you're all doing well and be chatting with you later.
X's & O's to ya~

Yay for Thursday & Kathie Olivas painting

Good morning...or afternoon/evening by the time you read this my curious friends. It's Thursday, which means I work today from 2-10 PM and then my weekend begins after that, yay! Work on Tuesday was odd. I didn't really explain this in my post called Yesterday at Work, but I got hit BIG TIME by tons of peeps that day...and I was pretty much the only one there (well, at the main-front-desk after 4 pm), kinda sucked.

My supervisor is on vacation and there was no replacement for her (even another part-time person would've helped), so I was doing things pretty non-stop. And since we got these new security gates EVERYTHING seems to be setting 'em off. So I have to wave down peeps, which I hate to do and I feel bad for them because no one has been caught actually stealing a book so far. My lunch/dinner was even constantly interrupted, I sat in the breakroom with my co-workers but was the last to finish my food because I kept getting people at the desk. Ugh, so I hope my supervisor is back because I was going nuts that day. :( Hopefully today will be better, even if she's still gone! :)

So on a brighter note, today is the last day of my work week & I'm very glad. Oh & do you like the picture above? It was "new" on Kathie Olivas MySpace page. I think it's very awesome. I love her art and actually her Scavengers art toys were the 1st 'art toys' I ever got-but darn those blind-boxed ones because I got 2 of the same...of course. That's just my luck. But for her Scavengers series 2, I got two different ones so that was good. Then those toys lead to Dunnys & I haven't looked back yet...;} Well, I should go...time for breakfast. Hope you all enjoy your day & be talking to you later.~

Yesterday at work

Hi there. I'm actually at work, it's Tuesday, I'll prob post this Wednesday though. We can't use Blogger but I can send this Yahoo message/post to my blogger (I like to do it as a draft so I can make sure all turned out ok). So I'm at work & not a whole lot is happening here, which is fine because we got new security gates here at the library & they've been going off quite frequently. So luckily things have slowed down a bit...it's 7:15 PM & I got here at 2:00. It's my new schedule, I used to come in at 4:00, and it's not really much of a difference (you know feeling like time's dragging).

Ugh, I thought my constant nightmares (literally they were happening every night) were over but every now & then I'll have one & I wonder when it's gonna stop. Mainly because I usually never have such scary dreams. I woke up in the middle of the night (aka: morning) sweating. I know that's normal sometimes but in my dream, aka: nightmare, I was running from someone who wanted to kill me. Definitely freaky. My nightmares change (not reoccuring theme) but I really think these awful things are happening to me. One morning I woke up from a nightmare thinking half of my face was terribly disfigured. And I was really believing it too, and then I looked in the mirror & there was nothing of course.

People have said it could be because of stress and although I feel some stress (the two big factors being because we have yet to find a new roomie as well as some medical issues I'm dealing with), I didn't think they'd be going on for this long. I don't feel like I'm constantly thinking about these things but somehow I dream something weird and scary almost every night for about 3 weeks now. Hm, curious, right?

Enough about that for now. I feel glad because I did some serious "organizing" today. You gotta understand that my bedroom closet is a place where things go to be forgotten about. I had things in there from Christmas still...just because I didn't want to find a place for 'em (DVD's, gift sets, etc...). I also had lots of books in there (because my bookshelf is to full capacity), so I atleast organized 'em a bit. And then just random non-Xmas stuff...so overall it's a lot better than it was before. Just can't keep throwing stuff in there-gotta stick to it!!! ^_^

Mike's family bought me the complete series of The Munsters for Xmas & I finally got around to watching that yesterday. Yeah, only took me 3 months cuz of that darn closet! I watched the pilot episode as well as the first episode called Munster Masquerade. The pilot was only 15 minutes long & also had two different actors originally playing the roles of Lily & Eddie. Thank God they got replaced because they were both awful. Lily was originally called Phoebe and the actress playing her seemed like she was on some serious Valium. Then the opposite happened with the young boy playing Eddie-he was bouncing off the walls & trying to (pretending to) always be attacking someone. Maybe that's how they wanted Eddie & Lily to be at first, so again, glad they changed how the characters were & the actors too.

Herman was played by the same actor as well as Grandpa & Marilyn. I especially love Grandpa...and Lily too. I think Grandpa is so funny and Lily is too, as well as being a cool & very pretty lady. I don't know why but I always liked her more than Mortica from the Addams Family. I love both shows...prob couldn't pick a fave between the two. I still would like to own Addams (on my wishlist) some day. I told Mike's parents they could get me either one & they chose Munsters so I got hm....only 69 episodes to go-yikes! I'll be watching that for a while.

Well, I should get going. I gotta lock up this building...one of the wonderful joys of working at night. Woo Hoo (kidding). So it'll be Wednesday when you'll probably be reading this so I hope your day goes well. It'll be my day off so I'm looking forward to it. Take care everyone.~

Don't Trust Me Anymore ;}


Over a week back, I said I'd be easing up on the blogging. Yeah, don't ever trust what I say anymore...I think I wrote 15 posts here this week, didn't even count my Goth blog posts. Yikes. I'm a walking, talking (blogging) contradiction. Honestly, I just had that ol' urge to write, & the roomie thing is not moving very quickly. :( But this is what I have done: I've been looking for NOW HIRING signs while I'm out, checking the internet for jobs, I've filled out a couple applications, and I asked for more hours at work. And luckily I'm getting some (isn't enough to NOT need a new roomie, but I think it's atleast something). :) My new schedule starts next week. I'll just be going in a couple hours earlier a couple of days. So, that'll mean less blogging...I think. Again, don't trust me. ;}

The main thing now is: we gotta get our basement in order so it looks nice enough so we can rent it out. Unfortunately, the two friends Mike & I thought would be our best "bets" can't/don't want to move in, so the next step (aka: project basement) is lingering above our heads. Unfortunately, Mike isn't moving very quickly on the situation. He gets very irritated when I tell him we NEED to get his friend over here to help us install plumbing in the bathroom down there...and just to get our basement in order (storage is mainly down there & my art space). So I haven't said too much about it for the past couple of weeks. Plus he was sick all last week so I knew he wouldn't get going on it then. BUT it just feels like time is running out. Joe said he'd be leaving in April or mid-April & that's almost here-where does the time go-so I'm feeling a lil' panicked. It's just my nature.

So again, wish me luck. I just think it's odd that I'm really taking this seriously and Mike is kinda like "Whatever." Very odd. I want to remain living with him and Bibi and would do anything to keep it that way forever. But in the end, the house is in his name so if he wants to lose the house, it's really his issue to deal with. I can only say & do so much. Of course, I don't want to move back home but I'm beginning to see that might not be the end of the world afterall. Just one day at a time, right?

Enjoy your weekend everyone! X's & O's to you for your support & for being the bestest followers around.~

I may be MIA for a lil' bit

Hey friends. Happy Monday to you all. Hope your week goes well. Just writing to say my postings may not be on such a "regular" basis over the next few weeks. I've been having some "living situation" issues and I need to concentrate on that above anything else for the time being. I'm sure I'll post from time to time (well, I am a blogger junkie afterall!)...just probably not so frequently on either this blog or my goth blog. If anything, this will (hopefully) get some of you to go back (3 months time) & read some of my previous posts-that would rule! Trust me, I'd love to write so I wouldn't feel such frustration & uncertainty at this time BUT I have to put this situation first. It means everything to me...because I don't want to move back to my parents' house. I love living with Mike & our doggie, Bibi, & I don't want that to change. This is NOT a relationship problem...it's a matter of getting a new roomie ASAP. So wish me luck!!! (Also: If you're a peep I email with, the same thing applies. It might take me a lil' while to get back to you. I think you'll understand.) I'll be bloggin' at ya later. ^_^
Your curious friend, Eve

It's Not Easy Being Green Quote

Hi friends. I've had a great couple of days because of my birthday & all but certain things have been on my mind lately. I've been feeling a lil' out of my element. And I'm trying to think positive but I just can't help thinking about the negative too. (So the story goes-our roomie, who has lived with us since we moved into our house over 2 years ago, is moving out very soon. And we need to find a new roomie asap. So this issue has made things a bit stressful for both Mike and I. It was a pretty unexpected thing, hence the stress.) So I was looking through this book tonight and I found this wonderful quote. I thought "this is what I need to keep telling myself," after I read it...mainly the last paragraph. It's a quote from the book It's Not Easy Being Green, which I've used several times now. Dr. Teeth speaks the truth! ^_^

Whenever there's a dream worth a-dreamin'
And you want to see that dream come true
There'll be plenty people talkin',
Say forget all about it
Say it isn't worth all the trouble,
All the trouble that you're goin' through
Well, what can you do?

You can't take no for an answer
You can't take no for an answer
You can't take no for an answer.
No, no, no!

Whatcha gonna do when the times get tough,
And the world's treatin' you unkind?
You've got to hang on to your optimistic outlook,
And keep possession of your positive state of mind.
-Dr. Teeth

Lazy Thursday & Lydia

Ugh, today's one of those days were I feel so lazy. I'm due into work at 4pm but I'd really like to skip today. Mainly because I stayed up really late last night writing something on the Despair Blogger. I just felt very compelled too. But I kinda regret it because I feel so dead now. So I wrote something...& I felt like it wouldn't "fit" here or on my goth blog either. So I put it there. It's a story about "Lydia" but I think you may know who Lydia really is. Ever feel better writing about something personal in the third person? Well, that's how I felt yesterday. If you're curious about my late night post you can find it HERE. Hope you all have a good day. Oh, and today is my last day of the work week so YAY!

My Hair Is Actually Kinda Long

Got my hair cut & dyed by my sis a lil' while ago. Hadn't had it cut in a while & DARN, it's kinda long. My sister sold me an old straightener today so I'm hoping I can ALWAYS make it this straight...cuz it lays funky & I've just been pulling it back out of laziness. And with it being so straight, you can actually see some of the lil' black highlights (not so much in this pic though). And YES, my camera is gigantic-it's as old as dirt BUT it still works & that's all that matters right now.

I Hope That Groundhog Was Wrong...

...because it's been so unusually nice for several days. I haven't opened this window (above the kitchen sink) since November...I'm thinking. Yikes, that's a loooong time.

The front of our house. I can see the rocks again. And who knocked over that rabbit?

Wow, grass is under there??! Keep on melting snow, please!!!

Only several days before, I was slipping there...where I get into my car because of the icy & slippery snow. Now it's like "the nothing never was." (Do you know where that's from?)

And Bibi loves sitting in the sun. Ain't she sweet? So now I say to that lil' groundhog, "BE wrong or off with his head!" ^_^

But of course on such a REALLY lovely & spring-feeling day, I have to work, ugh! But I can only hope it'll be nice this weekend. And Happy Tuesday to you all. Hope it's a nice one for you.~

My mind must be off cuz i didn't even give this a name...


ughhhhhh! the pic you are seeing above is my list of things i want to write about between BOTH my Looking-Glass and For the Love of Goth blogs. and right now, i don't feel like doing anything. mainly because i just woke up. well, basically i didn't get moving til about noon, if you consider moving going on here & eating breakfast. hm, since sunday night, i haven't slept too great which always throws things off. i don't know exactly why i feel so crappy. maybe it's this crazy weather (cuz my body is a lil' achey) or just the fact that i've been going to sleep pretty late & then getting up early. and it's finally wearing me down now...and since i'm not due into work til 4 pm today, i just layed down catching up on 'missing time.' and Bibi felt the same, or didn't want to bother me...cuz she just layed there with me too. :)

soooo, if you don't hear from me soon, you know i made the decision to take a bit of a break. i mean this place ain't do or die, so things can wait of course. and YOU know i love writing but gotta get feeling back to norm by doing some more norm things, ya know? actually yesterday was nice cuz i wasn't online too much. i had an appointment at 1 pm, and then a lil' bit after that i went out to meet my friend for dinner (and shopped before that, that'll be my next Eve's Red Bag)...and didn't get home til after 9 pm. so i was actually doing 'normal' things which is good.

oh, and mike & i got movies to watch too before next tuesday (BB Total Access you're killing me some days!). and those include: zack & miri, nick & nora, and i'm getting an Alice film i've never seen in the mail from Total Access. yeah, i put down like 4-5 Alice films in my Queue on Total Access...but most of 'em are "short or long" wait. want to see some other Alice films...but for 'research' of course! no, just because...

(oh & Jenny I took your advice & i'm getting both Alice & Looking-Glass on Audio Books, woo hoo!)


well, i should go but i hope you all have a lovely day and if i don't talk to you soon, you now know why. oh, and tonight is new episodes of The Office & Kath & Kim (gotta tape both of those), so make sure to watch those. take care everyone.~

One Quick Note: my poll closes in 2 days. so if you haven't voted yet, please do. think Alice is the #1 pick right now. thanks!
