NO LJ I DO NOT WANT YOU TO DELETE MY JOURNAL. NOT ANY OF THEM. EVEN IF I HAVEN'T LOGGED IN FOR YEARS.

IT'S MINES, PRECIOUSSSSS. IT'S MINE, MY OWN, MY PRECIOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

Hello there, internets.

*stabs ovaries weakly*

i knew this would be a bad month i can't even capitalize or punctuate properly

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND ALL THAT JAZZ!

... okay, so this is a day late, but you can blame my NYE for that. It's the thought that counts, right? Right?

♥

So did everyone have a good Christmas? Hmmmmm? ♥

I spent time with the extended family, which was good. But damn that felt like a long two days. My Christmas started with Midnight Mass (which ended at 2am omg), and then I didn't get much sleep before I had to be awake again so we could go to my cousin's Christmas party. Thankfully, I managed to nap in the car, but I still feel weird and tired. Bleh. The weather isn't helping either.

Now it's time to raid all those tins of fancy Christmas cookies we got as presents.

*flops over*

Got absolutely nothing done today. Argh. And why is no one else watching The Walking Dead so I can flail and geek out with you?!

*stabs ovaries*

Oh ovaries, I didn't miss your wacky hijinks. =____=;; At least you timed yourselves properly this month. But please, I'd like to be able to eat something.

DAMMIT OVARIES YOU COULDN'T WAIT ONE DAY COULD YOU. JUST ONE DAY. AND IT'S SO HOT AND I'LL HAVE TO BE ON MY FEET ALL NIGHT. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGGGHHHH!!!

*stabs ovaries viciously for being uncooperative]

"Okay, mom, calm down! Now is not the time to be panicking. You go start the car, I'll get the shovels."

That is one of the best lines I have read in a fic recently. And it makes absolutely no sense out of context. XD!

*stabs ovaries*

I got so angry at my dad today that I started my period early. Nnnnnnnngh. =___=;; This, along with the super hot 100+ weather lately is making me cranky. And I have no chocolate or ice cream.

*diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiies*

It seems like the week has gone by superfast, but I guess that's because I had a terrible Monday. If you don't already follow me on Facebook, Monday morning, someone broke into my house while I was in it. It was a terrible way to wake up.

I'm perfectly fine if still a little paranoid, but I wasn't hurt and nothing was stolen. Please don't freak out. I did plenty of that already.

( a really terrible way to start the weekCollapse )

*stabs ovaries*

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO DO THIS WHENEVER I WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE AWESOME?!

I TOTALLY HAVE THINGS TO SAY, BUT THERE IS. SO. MUCH.

And I'm sorta lazy.

This "here's what I've been doing for the past month lolz" post keeps getting longer and longer. It's almost like I have a real life.

*stabs ovaries*

I didn't let them stop me from going to the bead show today! The stuff I bought is worth the pain. Though I wish I had tons more money.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

I hope everyone has a good day today. ♥

GUESS WHO FINALLY HAS WIRELESS INTERNETS?!

MY LAPTOP WEEPS NO MORE.

... *chugs some Advil and Mountain Dew*

Even when I know it's coming, my ovaries still find ways to cause me pain. =___=;;

R.I.P. Dick Clark.

I've watched him on TV pretty much every New Year's Eve for my whole life. Even if other channels had their NYE celebrations on TV (and with better performances/people showing up), I always watched New Year's Rockin' Eve because I felt it was the "real" New Year's celebration. And I've always wanted to celebrate NYE in New York with all the people in Times Square even if it would be crazy and loud and bitterly cold.

I know the past years after his stroke affected him terribly. It always made me sad to think that someone I've seen and had good memories with would suddenly disappear from my universe of experiences. It's sort of like when John Paul II died; he was my Pope. He was the one I'd known my whole life, I was fond of him even if I'd never met him, and I didn't want there to be another.

But Dick Clark kept hosting every single year (except 2004 since that's when he had the stroke).

He persevered. He proved to the world that you can recover from a tragedy and still go on with your life. He wanted to make the people who watched and celebrated happy along with him. Even though it was obvious that hosting was becoming an ordeal for him, he still wanted to do the show he's been known for and made famous around the world. He even said: "Last year I had a stroke. It left me in bad shape. I had to teach myself how to walk and talk again. It's been a long, hard fight. My speech is not perfect but I'm getting there." This is the kind of hope, strength, and spirit that should be praised and applauded, even if you're not family, or a friend, or a neighbor, or even met the man at all.

It won't be the same without him counting down to ring in the new year.

Dick Clark is my New Year's host.

Thanks to everyone who wished me Happy Birthday on Tuesday! ♥ ♥ ♥

Having a birthday that's during the week is always kind of bleh, because you can't really go out and do stuff on a Tuesday. Boo. I had a low-key birthday day, but I still had a pleasant day that made me happy, so that's always good. Maybe this weekend I'll be able to meet up with friends and have lunch or dinner or something. I get free desserts at TGI Friday's and Buffalo Wild Wings. :3

And I found out that the Inland Empire's First Annual Chocolate Festival is being held on April 21st. XDDDDDD! I think I'm going to make that my "birthday" event, even if it's like 2 weeks after my actual bday. It's worth it for chocolate and wine tastings. Yum~

Anyway, the birthday haul... which isn't very much since I don't get presents from anyone in my family, not even my parents. So let's make this Free Stuff (or heavily discounted) I Got For My Birthday instead.

-- Sugar Kisses Mini Lip Duo Set from Sephora
-- free truffle FUCK YOU TOO GODIVA
-- Buy One Get One Free ice cream from Coldstone (I got Birthday Cake Remix, of course, and Oreo Overload)
-- $25 Gamestop giftcard (okay, this is a promo from eRewards that I earned, but I'm totally counting it even if it's still being shipped to me)
-- 50% off some pretty crystals I've been lusting after at Michaels. TRUEFAX: they released a one day coupon valid only on my bday, so I went to see what they had since I was out already. I thought they'd sold out of the crystals I liked months ago and never restocked them (I've been checking diligently) but I managed to find ONE STRAND buried behind a bunch of other beads in a totally different section. It is fate. So I got them. :3
-- Wishes and kisses from friends... too many to count ♥

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE! ♥ ♥ ♥

And don't forget to celebrate Half-Price Chocolate Day tomorrow. :3
