Life. It's happening.
It finally hit me yesterday that NaNo is coming up. It's not that I didn't know, it just hadn't fully hit me yet. I dug out my copy of No Plot? No Problem! and started decorating my moleskine cover. I need to start planning this sucker.
( NaNo stuff )
My new project is Personal Constellation. It'll be a tumblr...thingy (what do you call it? is it a blog? is it...something else entirely?) dedicated to creating a positive force in my life. It will consist of music, quotes, pictures...anything that brings a bubble of lightness into my heart. I'll try to update it at least every other day, but no promises, since we all know how I can be with commitment. Go ahead and take a look and see what I've put up so far! Click here~
I feel as if I get down so easily lately with all of the issues going on at home with money and my "dragon," as Sarah calls my brother, and so I wanted a place I could go that was a collection of things that had brought a smile to my face in the past. That way, when I was down and out, I could go and check it out and be reminded of how AWESOME the Universe is. And since kindergarten taught me it was polite to share, I thought I'd put it out there for everyone to view.
I miss you guys. I love y'all so much and the random hello's and phone calls have really kept my spirits up. I'm sorry I've been out of touch, and it means a lot that you guys still think so highly of me that you are still thinking of me.
Um. My family my lose our house. Again. Within the next few months. Right now we're trying to refinance it, so hopefully that will work and we'll be able to keep it. I know that one very wonderful individual on my f-list had been offering to pay my way at cons or to take me on fantastic trips, and I know the rest of you are probably wondering why I'm not posting and commenting, so I wanted y'all to know. It's been really heavily on my mind, and so I've been in a very cynical mood lately. I didn't want to subject you guys to that. I won't be doing much of anything exciting for a while, either. So it's not that I'm too busy for you guys, or that I don't want to do exciting things with you.
And I know you guys probably want to tell me that things will get better, etc. But really, please don't. I have no doubts that life will look up eventually, but neither you or I have any idea when that will be, and so I don't want to hear it. Losing a house once is hard, but having to go through it again, and with this being the one my dad bought us, it's hard. And it makes me miss him. I know you guys are going to send positive thoughts my way, and pray for me if you believe in such things, and I want to thank you for that. You don't have to tell me, because I know that you would like for me to be back to my superhapyawesome self, but it may take a few months.
So let's not talk about depressing things, and just concentrate on what's going right in all of our lives. The world gets us down, but I know the universe has great plans for us. I love you all. Like, so much.
Halloween's been a blast, and I am totally kicking ass and taking names. I love telling customers they are doing it wrong and that I won't bend policy for them. The look on their faces is great. They underestimate me and think, "Here's a cute girl, I can pull the wool over her eyes and get her to take back this damaged costume that's obviously been worn," and then I don't and the shock on their faces is priceless. JUST BECAUSE I'M TINY AND CUTE DOES NOT MEAN I AM A PUSHOVER. :D
Also I've been having fun with my costumes this year. When Becca and I go to Chris' Halloween party, we'll be matching leopard-print dress witches! I'm going to dig out my flavored body glitter (it's peppermint) and put sparkles around my eyes and in my hair. I'm excited~ Chris' parties are fun, and I like that I've finally found someone who will invite me to parties and not hassle me about not drinking. He keeps a cooler full of non-alcoholic beverages just for me and Jenny!
Oh, by the way guys, I think you're all totally BAMFs. Just, you know...for the record and all.
