Wow, so on the news it says that actress Brittney Murphy died at 32. So young! While I didn't know her, or have any information as to how she lived her life I know I liked her in Girl Interrupted, Sin City and many of her other roles. She seemed talented. Hopefully there was no foul play, drugs involved or any of that stuff.

On another note Joey and I were sitting on the couch watching Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby. That is a good movie. It is very captivating, so much so that I was late for my RP group meeting this evening. By a half hour actually. My brother had to call me to get me to come. I've gotta say though, her husband in that movie really acted like a jerk through most of it. But I guess that was indicative of the time it was made. Takes place in 1966, was made in 1968 I do believe. If you've never watched it it does have nudity in it, but aside from that it is a good one.

Well, that is all.

Happy Birthday Ravyn!

We got snow this morning, just a light dusting, but I saw on the weather channel that AZ got snow too? Did Tiff and I bring cold weather with us when we visited, lol. I got my laptop back this morning and have been in bliss ever since.

Projects: Bleach image, I need to color and scan it but the ink is finished. It is a large picture too.

So I got on and discovered I have a membership! Lol, Thank you Ravyn! XD

On another note, I'm bummed my Lie To Me and House aren't coming on tonight because of Carrie Underwood. I like Christmas specials but I'd prefer it to come on Wednesday because nothing good comes on that day, lol.

Oh! Since I noticed that I had a poll opened when my last sub ran out I'm going to do the results. It was a fan art picture of Bleach. So I'll try to have that up this month.

Hello everyone!

So this past weekend I spent with my family and my in-laws. I actually scripted some CA while there, watched some movies, ate until unable to stand, put up Christmas decorations for mom (didn't finish though), and had all kinds of fun. One bad thing is that during the packing to return home we left my lappy. Thankfully my brother is going to send it back to me so I can continue to work. Hooray!

We are having a house built! This house was under contract to someone else but his funding fell out and they were going to have to build it anyway. As a result we got a really neat house that should be done in late February, or March sometime. It is on a half acre lot too. There is a HOA, I'm never really fond of those, and I get a study! One bad thing we've noticed though is that with the island in the kitchen we won't have room for our table. So we're going to see if we can remove the island. I would like to have one but that table is really nice and I can use it too. The cabinets are 42" high, and the house seems like it is going to be really nice.

The best part is it is not a short sale! For those of you who don't know what one is it is when the person with the mortgage owes more on the house than it is worth and they petition the bank to accept a lower offer. The bank must appraise it and decide if it is worth it. This takes several months and they can always say no. It is a royal pain in the butt and a lot of houses on the market are short sales right now. Also the bank does not guarantee the condition of the house so many of the people before they leave will tear up all the carpet, take the switch covers and do all kinds of mean-spirited things. So! Including the cost of any repairs, waiting on hearing from the bank and the fact that the houses were already priced a bit high for what you get just buying the new home was a much better deal.

The LED lights on our house are crazy bright too. They're preeeetttyyyy.

Happy belated Thanks Giving to everyone! Happy Holidays all around.

What I'm thankful for:

1.) Joey and Fry
2.) My family
3.) My friends

7.) Delicious food
8.) Different cultures
9.) Random acts of kindness
10.) The Freedoms that I've always enjoyed, never had to fight for, never had taken away, and are what make me what I am.
