  • Secret Santa Swap 2010

    Hey guys! I know it has been a while since most of us have done a swap, but Drea, Mari and I (@i_paintNplan & @MariPikasaur) were talking about it on twitter and we were all thinking that it might be a good idea to give it a go for a christmas time swap. I'm starting this out early to give people plenty, and i mean PLENTY, of time to organize themselves, their finances, and such before christmas sneaks up on us! Unfortunatly, I'm going to have to make sure that we keep this one within a trusted circle of people, so if you want to participate, you'll need to have 2 people on my special list vouch for you that you're trsutworthy. I know that sounds silly, but some of us have been burned by these things in the past and would not like to have that happen again! If you sign up, and aren't approved as a swapper, I will email you to let you know. So if you'd like to sign up to be a part of the Secret Santa Swap 2010, then please have a look at my questionaire, copy & paste it in an email filled out, and send it to me so that I can get swap partners set up! This swap is not limited to makeup, but is also open to include bath and body products as well as accessories! The specific preset minimum for this SSS2010 will be set at $30. If you are interested in spending more than that, you are more than welcome, but please do not be offended if some participants are only able to provide the minimum amount of swap goodies. This is all in the spirit of good natured fun, so if you can't handle that, then please move along! I will need anyone who is wanting to participate to send me this email by October 13, 2010. So that I can get the partners and information out to everyone by the 31st!

    Here is the form you'll need to fill out and email to me at secretsantaswap2010@gmail.com

  • SKEERT! 6 Month Recap

    Wait a minute....its January 2010. Crap! Where did the last six months go? No really...was I on a mental vacation? I haven't blogged about any of it here, so that won't help me remember. Was I sedated that long? Nope. CRAP I really wish I had been blogging. For me, blogging is a casual thing, I do it when the mood strikes, I don't really give a flying pignut what anyone cares about what I write, and really I just do it sometimes to make myself feel less alone. I've found that since I met my husband, I typically only blog when we aren't together. So anyhow...back to my missing life!

    In June I went home to Georgia for a week. July brought my husband home from Iraq for R&R. We did touristy things in Seattle, went to Las Vegas, and when August struck, he was on his way back. Or so we thought. Just so happened that our last evening in Vegas I was sick. I was stilll sick that morning. Sick all the way home and by the next day I was in the ER. Crying, begging my husband to just let me sleep on the floor because I was so uncomfortable. Days later after a second ER visit and second hospital admission, I was having Gallbladder surgery for the removal of a gallbladder full of stones. MADIGAN FAIL. Turns out, there were NO STONES. I guess on the bright side, the Army did let me keep my husband and extra week. Though really...I think it was hard for him to be there. Then he left, September came and I just worked, I was really getting tired of not going anyplace in life. I mean...reallly tired of it. I started looking into schools again and was almost set on UW. But then, my stroke of genius hit and I decided I wanted to go to Cosmetology School. DING DING! Thats the winner! So I resigned from the Kennel Tech position that I held in October, took a couple of weeks off before school and BADABING! I started Cosmetology school in November. It has been a long two months. But a fufiilling two months so far. I've learned a lot and have a vast abundance to continue to learn. There have been bumps in my education. Mostly personality conflicts and inner conflicts, but most have passed. The one that hasn't? The shakey hands, the hot feeling all over, and the inability to breathe in like I normally do. Yes...thats right...I'm pretty sure you could classify these bouts that overtake me every time I get mid-haircut are panic attacks. I decided today that the next time I'm at the Dr. I will ask about it. I have to do something. I'm confident with most everything else...but these haircuts may just be the end of me! Okay, I jest...but I have to figure something out, otherwise I won't make it to 25 before I have a mental breakdown. The only other things going on have been my YouTube videos. I've been trying to make them fairly steadily but school is sort of putting them on the back burner. I try to do at least one each weekend now. I really would like to see myself make a name for myself in the YouTube community. Bloggin may not be my thing, but makeup is. It's what I do.

     

    So for now I suppose that is all. I just really needed to think back over the last six months to comprehend where it is that I am right now. Its exciting and scarey all at the same time. Welcome 2010. Lets make amazing things happen this year.

  • What a way to return to Xanga...

    I know this isn't the best return to my Xanga, but I just don't feel like there is anyplace else to vent it out right now. I just don't feel like bogging real humans down with all my pissing and moaning right now...and besides, nothing that anyone can say at this point would make me feel better. I've been crying for hours with no rhyme or reason and nothing I can do seems to make it better. It is really a miserable feelings.

    Even brownies aren't making it better.

    Its hard to describe this feeling of lonliness and...well...what else? despair? I don't even know what to call this. All I know is that this feeling is crushing and I've had enough of it.

     

    Please move along now hollow feeling. I'm over you.
