I’m not going to be on my computer for long, but want to at least a few lines on here so a day doesn’t go by without adding a new entry.

For those of you wondering where the heck I am, I’ve just been taking it easy today. Like I’ve mentioned before, I’ve been pretty sleep deprived lately. I got nine hours of sleep the other day…which was wonderful, but it was apparently not enough. I’ve been feeling a lot more lethargic and totally worn down lately. That’s why I took today off. I think I’ve earned the right to chillax for a day…so that’s what I did.

It’s about 9:30PM right now…Lonnie is on the phone with his friend, Chad, and I jumped on here to type this. I did my best not to do any work today, but I still ended up doing some stuff. I mowed the lawn (big mistake for my broken pinky toe) and made dinner for the family. Before anyone lectures me for mowing the lawn while dealing with a broken toe, save your breath. I’m just too stubborn.

I plan on being here as usual tomorrow…and will post the usual stuff. I’ve noticed an increase in traffic to my site and couldn’t possibly be more thrilled about it! I’m so happy that people seem to like reading what I’ve got to say. I have SO much to babble about, so it’s a perfect outlet for me.

Anyway, I’ll shut up now. I hope everyone had a good day…see ya’ tomorrow!

• I’m listening to Radiohead again. Yes, I know…again.    I can’t help it.  I love ‘em.

• I’m kinda blah today. Not sad, not depressed, not…whatever. Just blah. I’m here.

• I just changed my sidebar mood thingy to “Just here.”

• I’ve been posting the heck out of Twitter lately. I’m not sure why, but that thing’s addictive! I was sitting here looking at their site earlier and was in awe over the simplicity of it. Seriously. Why couldn’t I have thought of that?! It’s SO simple! Between Lonnie & me, we could’ve built that sucker in a couple days…or less. Oh well…more power to ‘em! I’m happy for whomever came up with the idea. It’s a gem.

• I mowed the lawn yesterday. BIG freakin’ mistake. Ouch…I’m paying for it. My back was totally not up to it…but it had to be done. I could have asked someone else to do it, but umm…I think not. I’m way to picky and anal retentive for that. If they didn’t do it the same exact way I do it, it’d drive me crazy until I went back over it…which would make them feel like crap (rightfully so)…which would have led to resentment…etc. Sooo, the back pain is worth it to save my family! Wow…my logic is so screwy!

• The lawn looks flippin’ awesome!

• Lonnie made me something yesterday…oh man…SOOOO cute! I am going to take pictures and post them. I want everyone to see how much my man loves me. Hehe

• I’m going to make him a loaf of Banana Bread in return. He doesn’t expect anything in return, but I just gotta.

• I spoke with my Dad on Friday of last week. He sounds MUCH better. He said he’s feeling better, but he’s still in quite a bit of pain. That’s to be expected. I cannot wait until he’s fully healed and able to do lots of stuff he hasn’t been able to do in a long time. It’ll really make me happy to know that he’s enjoying life.

• My online store got its first sale!!! Yay! Casey AKA Princess Pwn (haha) bought a Short Bus Hoodie! I am SO stoked! I cannot wait to see a picture of it…and to hear how she likes it, etc.

• I’m supposed to be working right now…on a layout design for a fireworks company. I’m not exactly sure which way to go with it. I have a few ideas roaming around in my head, but nothing solid yet. It should actually be a pretty fun layout to create. I’ve got a lot of creative freedom in this one…which is so killer! That doesn’t happen so often.

• I have this really bad habit of clenching my jaw too much. I do it so much that I give myself headaches. That’s what’s going on right now. As soon as I realize I’m clenching my jaw, I stop myself…but then a few minutes later I catch myself doing it again. I’m such a dipstick!

• I hate it when the coffee at the very bottom of my cup gets cold and I accidentally take a drink of it thinking that it’s still hot. GAH! What a rude awakening!

• GRRRR!!! I was just clenching my jaw again! :slaps self:

• It’s gloomy again today. I’m noticing a drastic increase in gloomy days as of late. :sigh: Boo & hiss! That means Fall’s on the way….I dread this time of year. It used to be my favorite time of year in Montana, but here in Oregon and Washington it’s absolutely miserable. I actually used to love rain, but now I loathe it. It’d be one thing if it rained a lot in Fall & Winter….but not constantly. It literally rains every single day for months. Before we moved here people were telling me, “I hope you like rain!” and, “It’s hard to get used to the rain”…etc. At the time I thought, “Psssht. Whatever. I love rain! I can handle it.” Wow, was I wrong! It’s truly the most depressing thing ever. I already have problems with depression…and especially seasonal depression. But to add this incessant rain into the mix - well, I don’t know how I’m going to make it through another year of it. I’m going to look into purchasing a light box, though. My insurance should cover it, so at least there’s a little glimmer of hope.

• Alright, it’s time to go work now. I’ve procrastinated about four hours away so far. I’m sure Lonnie’s totally thrilled about it, too! Haha…have a killer day, everyone! :love:

 I had planned on writing some Random Randomness©, but then my shoulders and neck started to hurt again…and now I’m getting a headache, so I don’t have time to compose any randomness.  Lonnie is going to take me to McDonalds to get a $1 ice cream cone. We like to do that quite a bit because it’s a really cheap treat and it’s nice to get out. It might not be the most healthy thing for us to do, but we generally eat really healthy, so what the heck?!

I plan to lay down and watch some TV for a bit when we get back. It’s been a long time since I was last a lazy bum. I’m do for some chillaxin’!        I’ve really been enjoying my blog lately. I’ve also added a couple new designs to my online store. My very favorite so far is the My.Opera Short Bus graphic.      I seriously laughed the whole time I was making it.  The fact that all of my friends like it makes me happy and feels really good.

I would like to say one more thing before I go. It’s regarding the online store I opened.  Someone mentioned “shameless self promotion”…I know he was just joking. I even laughed and everything. So, I’m not all ass-hurt or anything. I just want to say that the reason I opened it was mostly so I could share my graphics with other people. I mean, yeah - I would love for people to purchase something, but if nobody ever does, I won’t be in the least bit upset.  I’m not out any money or anything…and I’m doing something I genuinely enjoy.   

Anyway, the point that I’m trying to make is that I don’t expect anything from anyone. I’m just doing what I love to do…and if someone decides to make a purchase, then that’s  just a bonus.

Lonnie just told me he’s ready to go, so off to McDonalds for an ice cream cone we go!
