Random Room Shots

Cool? Yeah- I know :p

• Things at work are generally pretty okay. My kids (not my literal kids, the children I look after, I don't have kids as of yet) are generally wonderful and lets say a handful of people I work with I can mostly stand. There have been a few times in the last few days where I just wanted to throw a dirty nappy at certain peoples' faces, but you know, I tend to suppress all my aggressive instincts and just either give them the cold shoulder or my sometimes less obvious (I'm sure), penetrating death stare.
• I've managed to get James (brother) and Cheryl (friend and co-worker) hooked on Yiruma (new age classic piano music). Now we have "River Flows In You" on constant repeat during our kids' sleep time and my "ATM" playlist on repeat, blaring (wearily) over our speakers at home when everyone goes to bed in the house. While we're talking about it, take the time to have a listen, it's worth it.
• Loki and I are quite the complicated item. We're technically we're not an item, we're just two people who want this relationship to work as badly as we want our lives to change. I think we're quite anxious about the coming date that we come together. Like the day I step off plane and see him for the first time (properly) in years. We're both quite nervous which may be our own faults. If we had planned this trip together as "just buddies" and tried not to come over that "friend line" so eagerly we probably wouldn't be in this little predicament. We've become somewhat expectant of each other, well no, maybe we're fearing there will be expectations from either side that it's hacking at our nerves as a result. LOL, I know I've come to the point where I'm afraid he's going to take one look at me and decide in that second I'm not what he wanted after all (lovely right?) and that I've wasted his time. *screams* I'm going to have to get over it! Because I am not going to lose him this way, our friendship has survived much worse and I refuse to make a big deal out of something as petty as the "I'm so unpretty" excuse... If things don't work out then they don't, we'll be the best we can be for each other and there's nothing more I can ask for.
• My Twilight obsession has reached a new high see below. Yes that's right, I'm digitally enhancing pictures of myself either to "be" with Edward Cullen (the fictional vampire) or being a vampire (mwahaha) and you know I've reached a higher level when I start producing visuals of myself in a world that doesn't exist. Yay!! However on that same note, Kitty and I have managed to spread our Twilight germs to Quinton (LMAO) who now wants nothing more to do after work than read the Twilight Saga and share his thoughts on Cullen hotness and Bella stupidness. *Rubs hands together* Next will be Gem and Nat! Mwahaha!
• I am currently also spending some creative time working on layouts for some friends, coincidentally, Gem and Nat. Gem's should be up and running very soon at NeuroticButterfly.net with the new layout I've managed to bring forth, setup thanks to Kitty of course. I really hope Gem likes what we've done, she really deserves this. The woman has been wanting to blog her heart out for ages, she is after all naturally a creative writer, poet and author! And there is Nat's new blog layout as well, which I'll attempt if Kitty is busy, today. I also went ahead and gave Nat a nifty domain name for her new and improved reason to be webGeeky. Please visit HamsterGirl.com and just watch this space, it'll eventually be loaded with Nathalie's "mindless drivel" and there's nothing more anticipating than that! *gives Nat love*

So yeah- cool. I blogged! Though it shouldn't be too long before the next update anyway. And if I get my arse into gear, I'll try to get that damn meme posted. It shouldn't be too hard right? Yet why is it taking me that long to finish? I think I might have lost interest in the analyzing and therefore losing interest in the meme altogether? Meh. The effort has been made- I have to see it through.

When we both decided the first time that this was what we wanted, I was determined and excited and all things happy. That was literally 3 months ago. My adventure starts at the end of July, which scarily enough is only a few weeks away. I'm still excited, just jittery now. Most times I have to concentrate on breathing because this whole thing overwhelms me. This is big for me. I guess from an outsiders perspective I would look kind of silly being all worried and all, but trust me, if knowing me at all? I'm feeling a tad bit paranoid. I have no idea why though. Actually that's not true, there are some obvious things to worry about when going on a severely long road trip over three states. But am I really nervous about the trip so much as to what will happen between Loki and I during this wild escapade of outdoor adventure? We should be fine. We've been through worse. (LAUGHS OUT LOUD!)

• A renewed domain name
• A renewed layout design (something I had laying about in the web-closet)
• A renewed motivation to update
