Those other things You wanna see

Eclectic Music Repeated

This post is a repeat of what I have in my private blog, but I felt it too good to not share on my public blog as well. :)


I have just discovered this song, and I feel that I really like it.

I am all over the place. I'm up, then I'm down, I'm left, then I'm right. I'm calm, then excited. I'm awake, then tired. I want one thing, then an entirely different thing. This is an entirely new feeling. Well, not really. It's not a new feeling. It's just new that this has lasted so long.

Today is a very.... odd day. I'm having problems waking up. I know Keeper is too. My carpal tunnel is acting up again. It's really rather irritating. It gets really painful sometimes.


I really wanna talk to my Esoteric Hellion. :(  He's almost never online. He's really busy, I know. And he has an apprentice-type-thing now, too. He said last time when he was online, that he was going to try to be around more often. But he isn't. And I really shouldn't be surprised... But it still sucks. 



I feel as though I want to go home. I do not know what I want to do at home. But I really don't want to be at work today. I think I would like to go home, and open some windows, and blare some good music. Maybe dance a little. Or maybe I want to go driving. And blare my music with the windows open in the car. I think the music I'm listening to today is very... summer road-trip-worthy.



I think I'm really liking MGMT... and Foster the People. Their music is very... good. I don't really know how else to put it. I really want to go for a car-ride and listen to their music as loud as I can. I think that would do wonders for me. 



Wanna go for a car ride with me?

Cravings of Craziness


What a Rollercoaster.

A week of ups and downs. Life is crazy. Pages need to be edited. Mountain Dew is good. Keeper says I'm all over the place today. I wanted McDonalds a little bit ago. Now I'm craving pretzels. My body was definitely craving caffeine this morning, so I had to go to the store and get some form of the drug. I'm unable to focus on anything right now. My mind is all over the place. I don't want to be at work. I want to go home. And work on something. Sims... or the blog that Keeper, E. and I are going to have together... or something. I don't know. I don't really wanna be at work anymore. And I want to go get my mail from my old apartment. But my roommate isn't there, so I can't get it. Talk about frustrating. I know his car in the parking lot, not even 50 feet away from me at this very moment. But he's probably at one of his friend's houses. Arg. I don't know. I'm not that frustrated about it, I guess. I'm just... well... Yes. I'm all over the place.

I don't really want to focus. But I don't really want to be so unfocused, either.

Short post today, I think.

The last couple of days have been pretty mellow. Lots of game-playing, and hanging out, watching movies. I'm rather addicted to Sims 3 now, as I have three expansion packs for the game, and I'm enjoying exploring everything. Keeper has started playing Borderlands and Fallout 3 alternatively, and he can't really decide which one he likes better. He says he wants one that's a mixture of the two. Haha.

Tonight is a Gallery Night at the Grohmann Museum. I'm pretty excited. I don't know if I'm more excited for the actual night, or because I get to look pretty tonight. Which, that may be wrong of me to say, as I do work at the museum, but I won't be working tonight. I don't work at these events. Keeper does (he gets to walk around looking fancy and taking photos), so I go along. I enjoy going and socializing with others. And dressing up. :)   And tonight.... I'm going to wear my new converse! They're still brand new white and purple, and I'm planning on wearing them with some dress pants, and... well... I haven't decided on a shirt yet. I've got about two hours between work and Gallery night to decide on that, though. There's free food, and free non-alcoholic beverages at the museum tonight, and my boss will be giving a speech on the history of Mills tonight as well. Should be interesting.

If any of you are interested in seeing some art, socializing, and getting some free food and drink, stop on by!

I might post some pictures later, if I get any.

Fino ad allora... Sorriso!

Head for the hills, the kitchen's on Fire!

Wow! This weekend has been pretty great so far.

Friday afternoon, Keeper and I went to Best Buy and bought an Xbox 360. I also bought a special edition controller! I'm UBER psyched about this. We got an amazing deal on the system and hard drive for it. I paid a bit extra for the controller, though. After we got the xbox, hard drive, and controller, we headed over to Mega Media Xchange, where we got a bunch of games for it. LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Batman, LEGO Indiana Jones, Mirror's Edge, Assassin's Creed... We're still looking for LEGO Harry Potter, and I'm totally PSYCHED for LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean (release date of May 10th(?))!!!! I also bought Piglet's Big Movie Game and we got Kingdom Hearts II for PS2, and then we also got some Game Cube games (Including Ratchet & Clank) as well! So many games! When we have kids, it's going to be CRAZY fun. And our kids are gonna be SO spoiled, it's not even funny. **We will NOT be having spoiled Rotten kids, on a side note. Our kids will be privileged, but NOT brats.**

Yesterday, I basically played Sims 3 ALL day. I woke up around 9:30, and let Keeper sleep in til noon. Around 4:30pm, I went over to my apartment and showed a couple friends/ex-coworkers the apartment as potential new tenants. I had lost track of time, and almost forgot to go show them around! They forgave me for being late, though, as I KNOW they've both gotten lost in games before, too. When I got home, Keeper and E. were finishing up watching Layer Cake, and then E. put on Serenity. I continued in my Sims 3 world, until we went to bed around 1am. It was crazy.

Today, we got up around 10:30am or so... And I haven't touched Sims 3 all day. I'm determined not to. Keeper and I had to run to the grocery store to get some creamer for our coffee, as well as cat litter, and some juice for me. When I got home, I had to re-file my taxes, and email a potential employer. I also got to draft up a Lease Termination letter. That was interesting. Hopefully, my roommate and I are released from the lease early, as that's a lot of money that I'd rather not have to spend on an apartment that I don't live in. I finished folding all the laundry that E. and I had started last night, and I brushed all of the cats! Now this last one, I'm kind of proud of. Keeper has always struggled with Bolo and Opal when it comes to brushing them. They almost Always struggle to get away and they always fight with him. When I brushed both of them today, they both thoroughly enjoyed it (they both purred through the entire brushing), and Opal even wanted more! ^_^  This makes me rather happy. I believe that they usually fight Keeper because he pushes too hard. He brushes them harder, I think because he thinks that he'll get more fur that way. The only thing I can really compare it to, is that it's like cutting a soft bread. If you press harder, the bread is just going to crumble, or in this case, the cat is going fight. If you go nice and slowly, back and forth on the bread, it will cut relatively smoothly... and in this case, if you go smoothly, as if you were just petting the cat nicely, the cat will enjoy it. It rather amuses me that the boys both enjoyed getting brushed by me, even though they always fight with Keeper.

In other news, Keeper broke my mouse last week, so we're ordering me a new one. It's gonna be purple! I'm excited! Also, I found Catz 4, and Catz 5! I'm SO excited for these! Catz 4 was the first computer game my mother had ever bought for me. Hopefully, Keeper will be able to help me find a way to play them on Windows 7, as they're both made for old Windows platforms. Along with the news of new stuffs, we also just ordered some converse from Hot Topic, where they're having a FANTASTIC sale! I'm getting some purple ones, and E.'s getting some black ones. (On a side note, I just found these, which I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY want!!! :-D ) All this stuff is coming in the next week or so. I'm UBER psyched about it all. :)

Keeper and I are now watching Burn Notice. I think for the rest of the day, we'll probably watch this show, and just chill. Maybe play a couple games later. It's been a good weekend. :)

I hope this week is as good!

Cemeteries of London

Mmmmm, whipped cream and caramel sauce! :)



Keeper and I have a whole three days to do nothing/anything we want, starting tomorrow. :) I'm pretty excited. The last few days, we've been playing a lot of games. He's gotten really far in the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and I've been playing and upgrading my Sims 3. It's been pretty awesome. In my Sims game, I've got myself, Keeper, and E. all living together, and Keeper and I have a son named Liam. I'm working on figuring out how to have pets in the game, as not having a cat or dog is rather driving me nuts. So far as I'm finding in my research for a pet, the only pets in Sims 3 at this time are insects and fish. Talk about lame! I really hope they do come out with an expansion pack soon.

In other news, I should be writing an early lease termination letter tonight. My room mate and I have come to an agreement that we should get out of the lease early, as I do not really live there any more, and he'll be leaving during the summer for an internship. He seems to be much more pleasant after this last weekend. I'm not entirely sure why, but I'm glad he is in a better mood now. He was being a complete jerk for a while.

After work today, Keeper and I are gonna go to Best Buy to get me a new mouse, because Keeper broke mine this morning, and possibly a wireless Game Cube controller, and another xbox controller. Keeper and I have been looking for video games that we can play together. Last week, we went to Mega Media Xchange and got three games that are multi-player. Two of them were puzzle type games (Bombastic and Mojo!), and the third was Winnie the Pooh! I thoroughly enjoy the Winnie the Pooh one, but there's only a part of it that's multi-player, so I'm afraid it wasn't as fun for Keeper. But we're still looking. Keeper found a few games, which he's downloaded and we're going to test out soon. And, we're continuously looking for any of the Lego (Batman, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Harry Potter (when it comes out)) series games, for PS2. If you have any suggestions for multi-player games (that aren't war games or anything like that), please feel free to leave a comment!

After best buy, Keeper has suggested we go to Culvers, where we have a couple coupons for $1 off some meals, which Keeper is pretty happy about, and a bogo coupon for Concrete Mixers, which I'm excited for!  After a breakfast of a cinnamon raisin bagel (with butter, cream cheese, and sugar on top), and a Starbucks strawberries and cream frappucino, and after all our adventures we're to have today, I think it might turn out to be a pretty good day. :)

I'm on the Up and Up



I've got an interview today! And another one on Monday.

I'm REALLY hoping for the job today. It's at a local bakery, and I've been wanting to work at a bakery for a while now. I'm not entirely sure why. But I'm pretty ecstatic for this interview!  No one has really considered me for a bakery position, due to my lack of experience in the field, but I'm REALLY hoping for this! And i have the second interview for that painting job on Monday as well! AH! I can't even tell you how excited I am right now. AND Keeper and I are having a game night tonight, with some friends, and I'm REALLY hoping our new friend L will come! It's gonna be REALLY fun if she does!!!!

Today just feels really good right now. :)

And especially after a visit from my favorite Esoteric Hellion last night, which lasted about 3 hours, I'm pretty happy. It's really good to be able to talk to your friends, and it's even better when you can hang out with them. Especially for those friends that you miss, but they've got busy, stressful lives of their own to live.

It's gonna be a good weekend, I think.  Hope all of you have wonderful weekends as well!
