This winter has been death to my skin. Mum’s too, although she doesn’t seem to get it as bad as I do. I’m chapped from head to toe, and the webbing between my fingers is splitting. Yes, I use moisturizer. I got a huge family-size thing like, a week ago, and it’s half-gone even though I never did figure out how to get the pump to work properly. On a non-work day like today, I stop and slather my hands with the stuff every hour or so, and they suck it up like water to a sponge. >_> Good lord, my knees are chapped.

Gratuitous whining aside, someone wrote me a drabble! I got all emotional and sniffly and did that little fist-to-mouth thing. And then I ate candy, because drabbles about hiccups equal candy or something.

I got up late, but I still managed to clean the kitchen before Beth’s friend got here. *is proud* It’s all shiny now. I even washed the windows. Now I just need to do the same to my room…

I’m kinda hungry and I need to shower. If we’re going out to dinner, I really need to shower. ^^; I’m fine for lazing around in my room, but going out is a different matter. Mmm, and I want more candy. …I swear, if this is a sign that I’m getting another period, I’m sucking it up and going to the doctor again, even though they prod me in terrible places and make me take pills at the same time every day, which is impossible for me to remember to do. And since the treatment they were deciding on was sticking me on birth control for the rest of my life… Sigh. I need to go through my archives and plot out my last few periods. …Hey, there’s that handy search thingy now, huh? Time to try it out!

Okay, I’m starting to get used to this. I might even try to figure out the template later. So, um, bear with me while I get used to WordPress, okay? Thanks! ^^;

I listen to the weirdest stuff. Padfoot’s started pimping trance to me, and I’m addicted to Delerium. And of course, I have a good part of the Matrix soundtracks, and some of the Star Wars soundtracks (because John Williams is God), and you can’t forget the Phantom of the Opera. And that’s just my sleepytime playlist.

I need to get some cash and see if the anime store got my vol.2 FMA Trading Arts in.

Steph: I’m calm now. ^^; Thank you so much. It’s so streamlined and pretty now, even though I’ve barely touched it. (Um, or because I’ve barely touched it.)

Shan: Is it? And my links don’t spontaneously disappear! Although that’ll probably come back when I mess with the template. XD

Caitlin: …You’re emptybackpack, aren’t you? Good lord, someone got to my personal blog from my fandom blog. Run away! The whining will overwhelm you! No, really, there is no redeeming value to this blog. At least my lj only has ficcage, yo; here you get the whine with the cheese.

Don’t say you weren’t warned. XD

Steeeeeeph! It’s scary! And those stupid links won’t go away, even though I can add new ones! I don’t want those links! I want them to go away! And everything is scary and I can’t figure it out and I’m seriously gonna cry if I poke at it much longer. I don’t think I can change the layout, either. *sniffle* I like the lack of spam comments, but it’s so scary…

…Okay, I’m gonna play with the categories, but the link stuff is waiting until I can cry at someone properly.

(Yes, this is why my blog looks funny, if it’s working at all. I dunno if it is.)

*screech* Gaara, you loser! That is so not cool! …And I want the scanlations already. ;_; I wanna know what you said to Kankurou… I saw “Kazekage,” but it looked like something Naruto would say and omg you smiled. *is scared*

Nicole: Kimbley will be kept far away from Esar. XD Or Sushil, or whatever we’re calling him today. Oi vey. But yeah, Kimbley + Esar = Bad. XD Now that would be a heck of a fic…

Shan: Except that this “tab” stuff I’m hearing about isn’t happening. What’s up with that? I did change some settings, but I don’t think I made anything so it wouldn’t tab new windows…

Gotta work today. My manager will probably stick around half the day, ‘cuz since the new lady left, he has to work Friday morning, night, Saturday and Sunday mornings - so for whatever reason, after working two shifts in a row, he sticks around through half my shift. He’s nuts, that’s the only explanation. ^^;

Wonder what I should have for breakfast/lunch. There’s seafood salad, and ramen, and clam chowder, aaaand… Little pizzas, but I don’t want those. Hmm. Salad, and maybe the clam chowder. ^_^

I heard there’s such thing as “Manhattan style clam chowder” which is tomato-based instead of cream-based. The thought makes me ill. I heard it also has no potatoes. This is not clam chowder, this is some obscure, disgusting soup. *is a snobbish New Englander*

On the other hand, Party Mausoleums are still the best idea I’ve had in like, forever. XD

Alright, you guys convinced me. IE was freezing up every time it tried to use any Javascript, and everyone I talked to said, “Oh, that’s because you have IE. Get Firefox.” It’s… odd. I’m gonna have to get used to it. *is very nervous about it* It feels delicate somehow, like fine china. And the stuff I want is like, right where it’s most useful. It’s very odd.

…Somehow this is not the type of thing I should be complaining about. >_>

Party Mausoleum! XD And plushies! Joygasm. X3 I’m sure Kimbley will be quite pleased with his red stone. Heh heh heh. I’ll just have to worry about waking up in the middle of the night to mini-explosions. XD

Oh, that’s what’s wrong. I’m used to having the little box I type in have a useless scrollbar until I type enough to need to scroll down, but Firefox just has one pop up instead of having a useless one there. …Yeah, this is like that Comcast ad where the guy is like, “They keep saying strange things, like ‘yes’ and ‘call us if you need anything.’ It’s freaking me out.”

I’m gonna research mausoleums. XD

I have been commanded to blog about the following funny things: PSS and Party Mausoleums. So I shall.

So today I went with Dad to the auto body shop, and we ended up talking about my snake and getting her food.

Me: She’s still got some crickets. She’s been kinda grumpy lately.
Dad: You can tell?
Me: Well, yeah. She’s about to shed. She just sits under the heat lamp and… *grumpy snake impression*
Dad: *snerk* She gets grumpy right before she sheds?
Me: Heh, Pre-Shedding Syndrome.

Part the second: Party Mausoleums. (My favorite.)
We drove by a nice cemetary, and I was admiring the mausoleums.

Me: I want a mausoleum. That’d be so cool. Well, I know I said I wanted to be donated to science…
Dad: You can do both, you know.
Me: Well, it would be kinda expensive.
Dad: Well, a cremated body takes up a third of the space of a whole body, so you could always share…
Me: Eeee! I need to call my friends! We can all get cremated and share the mausoleum and have a party!
Dad: …I need to cash in on that. “Party Mausoleums.” We can send someone out on a chosen day every year and pour vodka on you.
Me: *hysterical giggling*

I really do want a mausoleum. They rock. XD Yes, my family has regular discussions about what we want done with our bodies when we die. No, we don’t find this unusual at all. Heh heh.

In other news, FFX-2 is far too entertaining. And I wear my Naruto wristband all the time. And Sasuke lives next to my bed, alongside Heero-bear and the Ficbunny. The Ficbunny is very fuzzy. XD And I’m gonna have seafood tonight! W00t! Scallops and shrimp and haddock… Mmm, I love seafood. If I could have it every day, I would. *happy purr*

Nicole: That would be awesome! ^_^ I have a feeling you made it look simple. XD

…So who wants a Party Mausoleum? XD

*much sniffling* BE is eating my brain. But… Kimbley and Raulent! And Archer! And now Havoc and Envy and Lust! And Roy! Waaaaah! ;_; Stupid Dante stupid plague stupid stupid military. *sniffle* (ETA: OMG AAAHHH GREED!!!)

That said, I’m thinking of trying to make a shirt with Scar’s brother’s tattoos stenciled on. I’ve got reference pictures and a sketchbook and I might have sheets of paper big enough to make the stencils on… And yanno, I have the paint and the shirt and the sponges. I’ll have to practice on something else first, though.

I like making icons. ‘Specially when it’s cool stuff, like trashcanninja!Vash. XD Even making a matching AIM icon cannot get me down! Word, ma homie. Icons are love.

I slept an insanely long time, and I feel very sick to my stomach, and I’m generally feeling like crap. I think I might have a slight fever. *sigh* It’s about time, though. Everyone else in the house is sick, and I’ve been having dizzy spells since Sunday.

I think I’m gonna get myself orange juice, do the dishes, and eat something. Ramen, maybe. If I have ramen, I won’t really need the OJ… and I have Gatorade from yesterday. I feel like liquids today. ^^; And I need to do something around the house, because I’m pretty much useless lately. So. Dishes, at least, and maybe something else. Umm. I dunno, I’ll see how I feel after I eat. Probably I’ll clean the kitchen some.

The end of my entry yesterday, according to Gizoogle:
Clearly, this means I wizzy be sleep’n wit Sasuke tonight. My drug deala Itachi is gleeful. Im crazy, you can’t phase me.

Because everyone should be inflicted with the mental image of drugdealer/pimp!Itachi. In a black suit with red clouds on it. WTF.

*ahem* Anyhow. I’m back on the FMA bandwagon, leaving Naruto in my dust once more. Hey, as long as I’m on a Saiyuki kick when I go to AB, I’m good. XD So I was looking through my files and stuff, and I found a .txt file I scribbled out a while back, and it’s all about Kimbley and some crazy theories I had about him. It reminded me of a fic I’d been plotting at the time, and now I’m all enthused about the idea again. Let’s see if I can get it written. XD

Also? I take back almost every awful thing I’ve said about my work. I visited the other 7-11 the other day, and it was TERRIBLE. And I mentioned it to my manager, and he said they make more money then we do anyway. Can you imagine what they’d make if they cleaned the place up and made it nice? Man. Crazy.

Gonna play the game Shan bought me. <3333

Karie: Constantine rocked so much. I think I want to see it again. XD I want Gabriel’s pants…

Nicole: I shall find a copy of that, then. Shouldn’t be too hard. And Crowley sounds like someone I will like greatly. XD

Today was awesome, although much too short. I console myself with the thought that I shall see Shan again at a definite point in the future for at least a day. ^^;

Constantine is actually a very good movie, much to my surprise. I liked how the male and female leads did NOT have a gratuitous romance. The religious stuff was very well-done, and the angels and demons were adorable. And Lucifer? Was the most adorable of all. XD I loved the end, too. I think the best part was the whole anti-smoking thing. That was awesome. …So basically, I liked a movie for its wholesome Christian themes as opposed to the special effects, gore, and shooting. I suck. XD

Not my fandom, but my goodness, this has to be the cutest Good Omens fic ever. I get the feeling I should, yanno, read Good Omens. Um. Is it a book(s)? ^^; I suck, yes.

I feel all weird and not-right. It gets better when I huggle the plushie. Clearly, this means I will be sleeping with Sasuke tonight. My inner Itachi is gleeful. *cuddles*
