Moving

So, it's Sunday. And Sunday means that Tony is coming to get his things. I think I mentioned something of this in my previous post but oh well. It's my blog and I'll do what I want.

I've almost finished with this things in our room but I still haven't made it to the basement. I figured he can do that on his own though. Cause when I go to his dad's house to get my stuff I know damn well that he isn't going to have even one thing of mine seperated from his. I guarantee that everything will be sitting there exactly the way it was the last time I was there. Honestly it's mostly my stuff that's down there. I have about 10 boxes that are packed full of elephant knickknacks and pictures and other junk, all ele related though. I'm a sucker for anything elephant.

Which actually reminds me that I have pics of my ele tats on my comp finally. Maybe I should post them here. I know a few people who'd like to see them so maybe I will. The problem is that they were taken with a cell phone and they are pretty dark. I tried to photoshop them but they didn't look right. I should try again and see if I can't fix them though cause I love my tats and I can't resist putting up pics of an elephant anywhere, at any time.

I also have this awesome puzzle that is in the shape of an elephant, the picture on it is so detailed, and it took me longer than usual to put it together. But it was well worth it. It's a damn cool puzzle and I want my peeps to see it.

Ah, I've completely gone off the point haven't I? Oh well, those who know me wouldn't be surprised that I ended up rambling on and on.

More packing to do so I'm out for now. May come back later to add more words or more pics.....More pics is almost a given though, I can't resist sharing what I find and what some of my friends have been kind enough to show me too.

Because I like smileys and I'm procrastinating finishing this lemme add some that I found this morning. I can't for the life of me figure out how in the world I, of all people, missed these before but I think they're great. They crack me up, there's more that do that too, and even more so but I think I'll just refrain from posting them.....at least for now.

P.S. I hate the way the smileys show up on here and I'm thinking about taking them out. Those boxes irritate me to no end.

Charmed Episode Favorites

Ok, so I was talking to a friend of mine today and I mentioned that soon I'll probably start rambling on about some of my favorite shows in my blog and now I'm sitting around here bored once again. It's a little after 8 on a Saturday night and since I don't have any friends that live in the same state with me I don't have anything to do.

Well, that's not completely true. I could be packing my ex's things for him, he's coming to get them tomorrow, but why should I have to do it all on my own? It's his crap isn't it? Or is it my responsibility cause he was staying here but he's not anymore? Whatever, I don't really care. If he has a problem come tomorrow I'll just point out the things I did do today, which was quite a bit, and tell him to go to hell about the rest of it.

So anyway, enough of that. Today's topic is, and this should come as no surprise to some of you, Charmed.

I LOVE THAT DAMN SHOW!!!!! I don't care that it hasn't been on for a few years. It was on for 8 marvelous seasons and that is SWEEEEET! I actually have the first 7 seasons on DVD, funds have been too low for too long so I haven't had the chance to get season 8 yet.

This is going to be boring to those of you who don't like the show or aren't familiar with it. But I've decided for this (and probably later when I do Smallville's post) I'll be listing my fav episodes and characters season by season. And of course I'll be adding pics to the posts. Since I like every episode (and yes I do mean every single one), then I'll just be listing those I like more than the others. If not, I'll just be listing each episode from each season.

I may come back at some point and edit these posts cause I'll forget something I want to say but for now....

Ep. 4 - All Halliwell's Eve-time travel to the past after Belthazor tries to wipe out the family line, the girls help deliver Melinda Warren

Ep. 11 - Blinded By The Whitelighter-I just love this whole episode, can't narrow it down to a few things

Ep. 14 - The Good, The Bad And The Cursed-same as w/ Ep. 11

Ep. 22 - All Hell Breaks Loose-really good episode

Season 4

Ep. 2 - Hell Hath No Fury-transformation eps always kick ass, plus you get to see just how much Piper is affected by Prue's death

Ep. 18 - We're Off To See The Wizard-Phoebe learns Cole is The Source and willingly goes with him
Ep. 19 - Long Live The Queen-I enjoy Phoebe's "evilness" but I also love the way they handled Cole's/The Source's death. I will admit to hating the final scene cause it makes my bawl my eyes out every time
Ep. 21 - Witch Way Now-the girls are given a chance to give up their powers but I really love the ending when the girls find out Piper is pregnant

Ep. 11 - Centennial Charmed-love how the story goes
Ep. 14 - The Day The Magic Died-Wyatt is born! That and there's this line that Phoebe says that makes me bust a gut...She's talking to a demon and he's complaining about not having his powers and she says, "Poor little evil creatures." but it's not just the words, it's the way she says it, it kills me every time.
Ep. 17 - Cat House-love this ep so much, everything about it
Ep. 21/Parts 1 & 2 - Oh My Goddess!-killer season finale and the first appearance of Chris Perry (Dru Fuller), Piper and Leo's second son (btw, Perry is his middle name bcs since he comes from the future he can't reveal who he really is to them all). Very sad ending when Leo becomes an elder and leaves Piper, again with the crying....
*Just as a side note I love so many more eps in this season but already this is overly long and I still have 3 seasons to go through.

Ep. 15 - The Courtship Of Wyatt's Father-Piper and Leo get together for one night but it's always good to see them together, even if it doesn't last long

Ep. 20 - Witch Wars-cause Phoebe kicks some ass at the end and I lurv it
Ep. 21/Parts 1 & 2 - It's a Bad, Bad, Bad, Bad World-killer eps, love the twin theme and I can't get enough of Leo taking his revenge on the man who killed Chris and tried to kill Wyatt

Ep. 5 - Styx Feet Under-haha, Piper gets turned into an Angel of Death, great ep
Ep. 8 - Charmed Noir-love the black and white
Ep. 10 - Witchness Protection-Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia on Buffy & Angel) plays The Seer and Oded Fehere makes his Charmed debut as Zankou, love his character
Eps. 12 & 13 - love the makeover of the world then the decision to change it back after Leo sacrifices himself
Ep. 14 - Carpe Demon-just cause it's Billy Zane's first of 3 eps
Ep. 15 - Show Ghouls-soul swapping episodes are killer
Ep. 16 - The Seven Year Witch-Billy Zane's final ep, Julian McMahon's final return, and Piper and Leo finally get together for good
Ep. 20 - Imaginary Fiends-my favorite part is when they get attacked in the attic and the older Wyatt just kicks ASS with his powers...*sighs* he's so damn cool!
Ep. 21 - Death Becomes Them-cause it ties into the season finale
Ep. 22 - Something Wicca This Way Goes-one of the best eps they made, love the Astral Projection, adore the ending too, esp Morris' reaction to the girls walking away

Season 8
Ok, so I've only seen a few episodes out of the last season and I've liked them all. Like when Piper finds out her new identity is that of a woman on the run, anything with Billy, anything with Coop, and ESPECIALLY the two part series finale. OMG! Amazing eps. They did an awesome job of ending that show the right way.

*sighs* It really is a shame the show had to end but it is, and always will be, one of my top five favorite TV shows. And sadly enough, I'm still not done talking about them. Though I think I'll leave it here for now and pick up on this in another post some day. This one's prolley gonna take up half my page now.

I can't believe you're still reading this, but since you are here's some pics...

I had to add the title sequence cause I love it.
I love all the ladies on this show but if I had to choose one it would be Piper (Holly Marie Combs). Can't explain why, just love her.

New Pics and other nonsense

K, I just added some new pics, 4 I think. And I added a link to the website where I found the pics bcs they have so many different artists and if I would have taken some from all of them I'd have been at this all night. So I picked a few that I liked a lot and put em on here. There's more at my Photobucket account, which there is a link to over on your right. :)

So, my husband and I seperated. Well, not legally, but he did leave and it is permanent. I will be filing for divorce. I feel a little better now. I've been in a better mood. And last night I finally got some sleep for the first time in too many days. I have a few amazing friends that are helping me out right now and that only makes things better.

There are other things too but I don't want to ramble on forever tonight, maybe some other time.

I love this pic so I'm gonna add it in here.

Busy, busy

It's been a pretty busy week for me. I've been helping my cousin out with her baby during the day and since I don't get home until around 6 or a little after I have no time to post here. Well, really that's cause I'm at AW talking to some of my friends for as long as I can since I don't get to much during the day. I'm addicted to that place and I know it. :)

All right, I will be back at some point and I'll also be adding more pics cause I love those damn things. I'm watching my nephews this weekend but I may still get the chance to post here. And since there are some things that I finally can say, I will be saying them. :D

See how she glitters and stuff? I love it, but for some reason when I put this pic up, along with some others, they do nothing so I'm adding them here so you can see just how cool they are. Oh and I won't be around much the next couple of days. I'm helping my cousin out with her baby. She's just had surgery and is trying to recover so I'll be at her house (it's where I am right now actually) until later tonight, then back here again in the morning. It should only be a couple of days. But I'll check in with my friends as often as possible. I can't stay away from you guys for too long. :D
And OY! *throws her hands up in exasperation* AW is down again, this time for revamping me thinks. Hopefully it won't be too long

Had a really bad day yesterday

What a crappy day yesterday was. I'll be back later to wax poetic on it some more.

******

Ok, I'm back now. So yesterday was V-Day, big deal right? No, not around here it wasn't. Oh well, I'll get over it. It's not like I expected anything else......

The main problem with yesterday was that I was fighting with a friend of mine whom I truly DID NOT want to be fighting with. Said friend had pointed something out to me, which was the absolute truth btw, and I didn't like hearing it. Who does though? Esp when the truth hurts. So, we went back and forth for a little while, stinging each other, telling each other things that we shouldn't have been. Finally, and at the same time, we apologized to each other.

But it didn't help, not really. Mad I may have been, utterly upset and a bit distraught would be more likely words I would use, but it doesn't mean that what started the fight in the first place was any less true at the end of the day. It was. And although I have vowed to change my wicked ways I doubt it will last for long.

There are certain things about me that I just can't seem to change at all. I try and try and nothing works. Jeez Sneaks, cryptic much. I want to say more about the whole thing but I can't without revealing certain sensitive information. Maybe some day down the road it will become clearer to others but I doubt it. :D And unfortunately my mood is really no better today. I'm still feeling a bit down and a lot irritated.

******

Enough of that. Moving on to other things.....
I haven't done much today to be honest. I've just putting around the internet, working on my photobucket albums, and doing things around the house here and there. I haven't done any writing yet today, except for here obviously, and that's not a good thing. I never go a day without writing. I at least force myself to pump out a few hundred words a day at the very least. Whether or not they survive the editing process is another story. Most of them don't. But that's the beauty of writing, you can always fix it, make it better than it was before.

I just wish my "editor" was around. She's not a paid editor, she just loves to do it, and I need her at the moment. I've started two new stories this week, both Fantasy. And while she's already critiqued one of them (see The Looney Bin link) she has yet to even see the other one. But that's my fault, I haven't sent it to her. Although I did post some of it at AW and got some good responses on it so..... I guess we'll see.

Ok, I think I've said enough for one day.

My First Time

This is my first time doing this. I don't know if it's going to last long or how long I'll keep remembering to do it but I'll do my best. Yada, yada, blah, blah, blah. You'll probably be seeing a lot of that in here cause I do a lot of that. Ramble on and on about uninteresting things and barely is there ever a coherent thought in it.

I'm a writer trying to be published. It's hard work. My first book was finished in a few months with the first draft and it's been two years since then. Two years of rewrites and editing and more rewrites. I'm still not done. It's a work in progress and I will not stop until it's done as well as can be by me. I refuse to give up on this, it's my baby. I also have 7, yes I said 7, other WIPs. My first book is in the M/T/S genre, as well as another 3. My other 4, one of which I just started today, are in the Fantasy genre.

I like writing in the M/T/S genre a lot but I LOVE writing my fantasy novels. Witches are always my MCs, I have one story with a vampire in it, but the others have various different demons/evil entities/creatures/whateverthehellyouwannacallem.

I could write about witches for hours. I love doing the research for my fantasy novels versus my others. I could just write it all without doing any research, you know, make it however I want to, but I like to use mythology, demonolgy, all different avenues of information for my work. It's tremendous fun to read up on all those things. To check out the numerous websites devoted to that sort of thing. To browse the killer pics, even if I don't plan on using them, that people have created and put on the web. So cool!

So much going through my mind that I want to say but half of it I can't seem to find the words to use that will do them justice.

Oh! Yes! My opportunity to talk about the best place freakin' place on the web for an aspiring writer. Absolute Write (http://www.absolutewrite.com/) is the most amazing website. The best part about it, aside from all the help you get there (their information seems endless) is all the people that are there. They are all so helpful and don't sugarcoat critiques if you don't want them to. They tell you straight out what's wrong with your writing and try to help you fix it. They are the best! Of course not everyone gets along with everyone else, this is the real world after all, but anyone can make friends there. Trust me, I know. :) That place has helped me so much in my writing it would take days to describe it all. They have everyone ranging from new writers to writers who have been published once, and even more than that.

Ok, I think that's enough for today. I'll try and keep this up.
