Baby, Maybe, Someday

Hey friends. How's stuff? My stuff is pretty good at the moment.
- I worked out 3 times this week. Eating is not going so well and I hope to do better with that this next week. Time to go to the grocery store.

- Josh is doing a lot better and is almost back to his old self. This makes my stress level about 90% less.

- On January 20th, I am going to the Ozzy Osbourne/Slash concert with brandylina and flying_colours!! Sure we haven't all hung out before and sure Brandy and Emma have never spoken actual words to each other before but I can't even wait. Slash will be cool and maybe there's the potential of meeting him, who knows, but I'm mostly excited about Ozzy. Over the past year or so I've really come to appreciate him and his music more than ever. I love like 90% of his stuff. So excited.

- Also excited 'cause DJ Ashba did an interview and said not only are GNR talking about making a new album soon, but the US tour is supposed to start in February. Time to start doing tons of overtime so I can afford some road trips! As of right now I want to say that I will go to all shows in Texas, Vegas, and maybe Utah if they for some reason play in Salt Lake City. I'm going to be a groupie! Because for reals, who knows when they will ever tour the US again after this one. I gotta get my Axl fix while I still can.

- I pretty much gave up on Nanowrimo, like, November 2nd. I KNOW I can win Nano, I have like 7 times now. My problem is writing a novel in general. I want to be a novelist! A good one! But the problem is...I have to write a good novel to make that happen. And I can't do that in 50,000 words in one month. I need to think of a good plot and I need to write it and I need to finish it and I need to follow through. That's pretty much what my life needs to do at this point.

I was reading my Nano novel from last year and it's good and I love it. I'm just not sure what kind of a demographic wants to read a story about a rock star and a fan who fall in love. Rawr.

- I'm going in to work tomorrow early as possible 'cause I get to work on the first Sex and the City movie. Sometimes when I feel really strongly about a show that I love, I will go to great lengths to caption it. In this case, I'm getting there early and probably taking my entire Sunday to work on it. I am just that devoted to the awesomeness of this movie.

- I love my house. So much. *hugs it*

- I need to be less addicted to Tumblr. It's just like...I can post my 90th picture of Axl for that day and 20 people will reblog it and then I get more followers and it's just like a huge Axl love fest. It's kind of impacting my life negatively but I just love it so much.

Yeah so I should go to bed. Have a good rest of the weekend, friends. Much love.

I have many things to share about my new house, which I moved into this weekend. Like the fact that I hate the master bedroom bathroom, and I will have to buy a sleeping mask because there's a light situation that I'm not fond of, and my BFF is so amazing and awesome and helpful and luvvvv, and the movers on Saturday are definitely not going on my Christmas list. But to sum it all up, I had an experience on Sunday afternoon that made me entirely happy with the universe.

On Sunday afternoon, after me and BFF returned from the Apple store with my brand new shiny iPhone 4 (I love it so much, I can't helpppp it!), we came home to find my uncle and my cousin watching the Cowboys game with my mom. My uncle had fixed the bed that the movers had just left as a pile of screws on the floor. My cousin had brought over a dog she'd just rescued a few nights ago that she named Snooki (She's 18, what can you really do sometimes). And I was just sitting there in my house full of boxes thinking, this is so awesome. I have guests here. I have a dog. We're all watching the game. Everyone is happy. There is hope for the future based on this one moment. I am in my happy place. Ahhhh.

Also, here's a fun story: my cousin pretty much cornered this little dog on the street at like 1:00 in the morning when it was running around loose. The dog also had a little doggie friend but he got away. So my cousin grabs Snooki and rescues her, essentially. Then she brings her over to my house and I take a picture of her because it's a dog and I take pictures of dogs. Later, my mom and I go to dinner with my dad and I get all excited again and show him the picture. When we get back to my dad's house, he checks his mailbox and he finds a missing dog flier. Guess who the missing dog is? Snooki. Snooki and her long lost brother are now back at home with their owners, and now everyone is happy (except maybe my cousin, who was totally in love with her). I love good doggie stories like that, don't you? Good times.

I'm at work today but I have the next 3 days off. My mom and I are going to unpack and make it look all pretty. My mattress and other assorted furniture is being delivered tomorrow and I'm soooo excited. I want this house to be my motivation. To lose weight, to be more than what I am. I realllly want that to happen. Rock on.

Josh and I are doing well. Like, way better than usual. I feel like the dynamic of our relationship has changed in a mostly good way and that makes me nervous. It's reallllly hard to explain but...it's there. He's still sick and probably depressed and I need to get him to a doctor and I'd prefer it not be at some clinic where they ship you in and out as fast as possible. My mom's best friend's husband is a ear nose and throat doctor and I really hope she can help me get Josh in there with him. He has some issues and it's really getting out of hand now. Psshhh.

Oh, and I think I'm going to write something supernatural-ish for Nanowrimo this year. I have banned myself from writing anything about rock stars or bands in general because that's just my default Nano position. This year I want to write about a new race of creatures. They're...coyote people. They're...time traveling coyote people. Okay, I don't know, but something like that. I need to get out of my comfort zone and write something entirely different. It's gonna be awesome.

There are things happening in the GNR world. I will put a cut since 85% of you don't care.
