Interesting Site

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

It’s coming up on time where I’m going to be changing layouts around. I’m going to change the layout here, and I have a layout change for Look Beyond Mirrors that I’ve been meaning to do for a few weeks now I’ve just been hard-pressed to have the motivation.
While I was looking at some other [...]

Weight Rectifications

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

Okay, so I haven’t posted much about my diet and exercise program in a while. I’ve just sort of been easing into things and doing things slowly, overall since then I’ve lost 7 pounds. My weight has gone up and down over the past few weeks but I’ve decided I’m doing good without getting hold [...]

I *heart* Torrid

Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008

I have decided that Torrid is my new favorite store. It’s like a better class Hot Topic with clothes that are less that style as well, and, for the most part, in my size. Not only that, but I signed up for a “divastyle” account with them so that I could make a wish list, [...]

Low on Space

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

I was just looking at our hard drive today and found out that we’re down to 2 gigs of our 160 GB drive again. There are times we get stuck down to only a few megs. A friend of mine keeps suggesting that we get an external hard drive as additional storage space, and I [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Monday, October 20th, 2008

…on Monday. What gets me about this is that I actually took the picture on Saturday! Then I still forgot to post it. Ah, well, here it is:

I know my expression is a bit funky, but it took me a billion tries to actually get the pumpkin in the background…so once I finally had one [...]

Cars = Monetary Black Holes

Thursday, October 16th, 2008

I remember when I bought my first car my step-father congratulated me. He also warned me that it was a hole in the ground I was going to sink money into…and this week I can see his point. Last week my car’s brakes started doing weird things, which is not good, because brakes are really [...]

Walking is Good for the Soul

Saturday, October 11th, 2008

I think I’m getting back into a better routine. Today I was actually up and awake for a little bit before the munchkin which meant when he woke up we were both in good moods. He came out and said, “Hi” and gave me a hug and we talked for a little bit and I [...]

Financial Frustrations

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

I’m seriously ticked off with our finances right now, but I’m sure I’m not the only one. It seems like no matter how much I budget or pre-plan there’s always some kind of random expense that I didn’t account for or some bill I forgot or something like that. I really hate it. I start [...]

Palin does not speak for me

Monday, October 6th, 2008

So, now I’m getting political. Watch out!
I’m so, so, so very frustrated with Sarah Palin. Granted I hadn’t heard much about Joe Biden before I watched a recording on Saturday of the VP debate from the previous night, but I’m over Palin. I really am. I’m not even getting into all the ludicrous little shorts [...]

Raven Puff

Monday, October 6th, 2008

What did you say?
I was having some fun the past few weeks with a community on livejournal called Hogwarts is Home. They’ve a very involved network with a sorting community, “home rooms” for each of the four Hogwarts Houses (Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin) and even icons journals, a Hogsmeade community and places to get [...]
