The chaos that is me

My weekend has started off quite well.

My house is clean. Nothing to do tomorrow besides go grocery shopping.

My Dallas trip is less than 2 weeks away. I cannot wait. It shall be a great time with great people.

I also purchased some makeup today at Hot Topic. I love that store. The palette I found has bright colors - pink, green, purple, and blue. I tried out the blue eyeshadow - holy hell, it's bright. But I LOVE it. In my opinion (after playing with this stuff) there is no such thing as too much blue eyeshadow. And don't tell me it's so 80's.......I WAS born in 1980 after all......forgive me for paying homage to the decade of my birth.

Wait....that was not an apology. I like my blue eyeshadow, so I'm going to wear it. If it annoys anyone, I'll wear even more of it. So deal. Or don't look at me.

My tattoos are healing up nicely.....and for those who want to see pics....I'm waiting for them to heal up completely. Don't worry.....I am going to have someone take a whole role of pics of me (since many of you think that it's about damn time for me to get in front of the camera - few pics of me exist).

I had lunch with Carrie today. Her wedding is all in order.....she's been relaxing and enjoying her engagement this whole while. She doesn't even seem nervous. She gets married next Saturday.

Monday I'll be making double pay at work, but I'm done @ 3pm, so I will be having a cookout over here. I can't wait.....it's grilling season! Yay!

That's about all for now. Talk to ya'll later. Much love to ya!

A tatoo virgin that is...

I got my first 2 tattoos today. Stop....back up, rewind.....to LAST night....the whole damn thing was an adventure.....

After work I went to L's house to hang out....and we wound up partying like rockstars. We drank, and watched totally brainless movies until 6am....and finally crashed.

Yeah....we had to be up by 8am.....I'm running on 2 hours sleep.

My tattoos went awesome. Little pain, no bleeding.....the tattoos are perfect. The lines and curves are all perfect, and the outlines are all crisp. Absolutely great....this dude is a tattoo god!

L got the Rocky Horror Picture Show lips tattooed on her ass. The tattoo looks exactly like the picture! He even did it so they looked glossy! Rock the feck on!

But...I'm going to go crash. I'm totally wiped...but what a fantastic way to start a weekend!

I will be putting up pics this week, I hope. I want ya'll to see.....I'm shameless...

I got to stretch up today! Woot! I'm at an 8g and a 10g in each ear now. The 8's went in insanely easy - actually, taper kind of shot out the back of my ear. The 10's......well, yeah. THAT STUNG. But I love it. My 8g are black pincers, and my 10g are circular barbells with black balls on them. They look awesome together!

And.....I get my tattoos Friday! Woooohoooo!

Yeah. Chris on American Idol got sooooo robbed. Not only was he the best one they had.....he was the cutest too.

I'm done watching this season.

I'm also almost done watching Saiyuki.....which, in my opinion, is a great anime. It's very well done. The english voice acting rules, as does the artwork. The storyline is good too, with a good balance of comedy, action, and drama. I highly recommend.

Three more days to stretch! I can't wait to stretch my lobes again.....it's going to look awesome.

I'll let you know how it goes....*consider yourselves warned*

Finally! I passed my dispatcher's test! Huzzah!

I think I figured out why. I went out the night before I took it. LMAO.....yeah, that must be it. The first time I took it I didn't, and I failed.

So go out and party right before a big test. It'll loosen you up.

Ahem

Anyways....

This week is going to be crazy bananas. T's wedding is Friday, and I have to get all girly for it. Blech. I love her tho, so I'll do it.

But I'm uber excited, cuz this is my stretch weekend! I'll be going to a 8g and 10g in each of my ears. I bought black pincers in 8g just for this event. I'm going to take before, during, and after pics and put them up in here for those of you who'd like to see. I'm not sure how to get the pics in an actual journal post, so if anyone could drop me a quick how-to, I'd be eternally grateful.

I'll keep ya'll posted!

Ok....maybe I didn't party too hard last night at T's bachelorette last night. I wasn't hung over this morning.....

L came over at about 6pm to get ready. We busted open a bottle of wine and started drinking. We met the party at Victoria's, a kick ass Italian restaurant, at 7pm. L ordered a bottle of champagne, and we kept drinking.

We met over at C-Street at 9:30....L and I got there at about 9. I had a minor accident. Ok, so it was major. I have a bottle of pheremone that I wear at times.....it smells really good on anyone, since it reacts with the individual's body chemistry. Well, I spilled it all over myself. It was all in my hair, and on my jacket. L was screaming 'The guys are gonna be all over you like ants!' We hid in the bathroom for about 15 minutes, trying to get the shit out of my hair. I reeked. After we figured I was as good as I was going to get (btw, at this point, L is laughing so damn hard she is fixin' to piss herself), we went out into the bar and started drinking.

Midnight found us at HipCats. It also found me a captain and coke, a beer, and some tequila. We danced the best we could, considering we were all pretty drunk. Yeah. Interesting indeed. By this time, I had been drinking for 6 hours.

Lush much?

1am found us.....lost. L and I were trying to figure out how to get to The Bar East.....and somehow, we got lost in the trailor park of doom. Seriously, we couldn't get out of there for 20 minutes. We were going to meet a co-worker of ours, S, over at the bar. We finally get there as he is fixin' to walk to his car and go home. It's 1:30am, and we decide to have a few drinks. S bought us a round, and I tell you, that last captain and coke went down way too easy. Cut off!

I was blitzed. 2am is bar close, but we finally made it out of there by 2:15am. I was home by 2:30....but couldn't sleep. I didn't make it to bed until 5am......

You think I'd be in rough shape today.....quite the contrary. I'm just fine....not even tired. Yay!

It'll be awhile before I do that again....yeah right. I'm slated to go out with L again on the 18th.....

Yeah....I'm a fecking lush.

It's May 1st, therefore, it is Beltain!

The time when the Great Mother conceives new life. Everything has come back to life....the trees, the grass, plants and flowers. Animals are reproducing.

Flora and fauna is back.

I love this time of year. I love nature. It's now coming back to life, bringing color back into the world. It's time to plant herbs again - I want to horde a bunch for various purposes. Granted, I won't be able to harvest anything until fall, but hopefully I'll have grown enough to last until next harvest.

May is a busy month for me altogether....I can't wait for my vacation next month. But it's better for me to be busy, than to be bored. :)

Oh boy....May, here I come.

There is alot of crap going on in May. Way too much for my liking.

But the thing that is going to cause the most stir in my life is the changes I will be making. Specifically, changes in my group of friends. I have realized that alot of my 'friends' are just fair weather friends. They only come around when they stand to gain something. I do what I can to be supportive, to be there when people need me. I call my friends to check up on them. Some of my friends reciprocate. Some do not. I have many one sided friendships.

That will be changing.

At this point, I'm ready to be rid of the non-supportive, non-caring baggage. If you give a damn about me, please show me, because as it stands, I see that many of my 'friends' don't really care at all. I'm also tired of being expected to ditch my child and fiance because someone wants to go out.

Fuck that shit.

I'm tired of getting the 'heavy sigh' or 'eye-roll' when I bring up my interests or plans. Can't you be happy for me? Can't people just be supportive? Is it too much to ask?

That's going to end.

Sure, I'll be left with just a few real friends. But that's better than a bunch of people who think they are the shit, and that everyone should like them and put up with their crap.

Blarg.

I am a professional worry-wart.

I am currently praying to every protection goddess I know for my friend C, who lives down in Texas. She is under a tornado warning, sirens are going off, and 3 more nasty storm cells are headed her way. She was on IM with me, despite my urging her to seek shelter. *I threatened to kick her ass too* Now she is silent.....said something about maybe hearing sirens.

And now she is back, stating that it has quieted for now, but that it will be a long noisy night.

Please remember my friend as well. She could use some divine protection tonight.

My work week is over! Huzzah!

Plans for my tattoo weekend are all but cemented....I'll be driving to L's house after work, and probably going out and getting drunk. It'll be a hoot and a half.

We have to be at the tattoo parlor at 9am...we booked together, and I have to be on my way home by 2....so hopefully, that will work out. For those who want to know....one of the tattoos I'll be getting is my default pic. If you look at my other pics, the other tattoo is the embellished celtic triad knot. I'll be getting them on the small of my back, one on either side of my spine. I would also like to get a couple more in the future....a gothic fairy of some sort on my calf, and I decided today that I would like to get a zodiac wheel with my, my fiance's, and my daughter's zodiac symbols on my arm.

I'm also excited about stretching my ears again. It's going to be a big jump, so it's going to take some stretching on all 4 holes. My ears may be unhappy for a few days. The jump from 12g to 10g is a big one....and the jump from 10g to 8g is even more severe.

Hehe.

All in all....I'm excited about it. It doesn't hurt bad (to stretch), it more stings, like pouring rubbing alcohol into a cut.

Once I get all this done, I'll definitely put up some pics, so you all can see what I mean. I'll be getting pics taken during my tattoo session, and I'll take some pics of the stretches too.

For those that are curious anyway.

Oh, and btw, I finally found my sister on LJ.....Yay B!

I work Sunday through Thursday....so at work, tomorrow is my Friday. Sweetness! Somewhat anyway.

Yeah. I've got crap to do for T's bachelorette party....I have to run to Appleton to go to the naughty ladies store. Party favors and such. My house needs to be cleaned again. And I need a tan, therefore, I have to get a sunburn. My skin will not tan unless I do so. It's kind of bizarre.

I actually had a good work week. I had a perfect monitoring, so I get to read whatever I want in the call center - usually, you can only read work related material. I feel like I get to bring in contraband shit. Sweet.

Also....in the next 4 weeks, my body is undergoing some....construction. Or something. I'm stretching my ears again.....losing my tattoo virginity.....doing something new with my hair.....it's gonna be a cool end result. I'll put up pics.

And the hunt continues for my sister's LJ.....she's around here somewhere. I've sent her 2 messages for it....even talked to her on the phone, and still nothing. Damn it....

Well at least I learned how to post.

Anyways.....I thought I'd put up an about me thingy. If you care. If not....oh well. You don't really have to read.

1. I'm a musician at heart. Music is in my blood and soul. You name it....I probably listen to it. I may not know title and artist, but I know the song. I'll dance around and sing like a fool.....I don't care who is watching. I'm not on this planet to make the scenery look pretty.....I'm here to have fun. If I had to pick 3 favorite bands.....they'd be My Chemical Romance, Plid, and TATU. I do sing.....took singing lessons and everything. I also play trumpet and piano....although I am rusty. If I could learn any instrument, it would be celtic harp.

2. I love anime....too many good shows and people to list. If you're a VA.....well, chances are good that if we talk back and forth at all....I won't bring up anime at all. I'd rather get to know you as a person - I'll blab about music for sure, but I'll probably avoid the subject of anime all together.

3. I am Wiccan. I am a witch. Any questions? Send me a message.

4. I am into body modification. I'm stretching my ear lobes - up to a 10 gauge presently. I've got some kick-ass jewelry in right now....but I'm stretching again in a few weeks. I have my navel pierced. I'll be getting 2 tattoos May 19th. And I'm getting my cartilidge dermal punched this summer. Go hardware!

5. I am a mom. I have a beautiful 3 year old daughter, who is an otaku already. I love her to pieces. I talk about her alot, you'll find.

Speaking of my daughter....she's having a bad dream....so I'm going to end here.

Good night

Blarg. I am so computer stupid. I just signed up for LJ.....b/c my sister is here. So I wanna play too! :)

Now if I could just find my sister on this site.....I can't even navigate without feeling like I've been turned upside down and shook.

What the feck.....

So yeah.....bear with me, as I bumble around like a blind man in the dark.
