What a way to return to Xanga...

Fri, 04 Sep 2009 01:22:39 GMT

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.

get ready....its starting again

Can I get a definitive answer? Please?

I've been researching the procedures for aquiring Washington tags for our vehicles. In all honesty, I think I'd rather just end up with expired tags. No really. I ran around in circles today even after having called the tag joint to get the information. Then I had to wade through the 330pm traffic on I-5 to some remote/shipping-yard-esque area to have an emmissions test done for my car. I wait in line...and then I am told that since my car is only an 06 that I have no reason for an emmissions test.

Uh...wait...the other lady said I needed one. Can someone please get this right?! Then I get to the tag joint where I'm told they only take cash and that since my Power of Attorney is only for our truck that I will have to pay the regular rate, as opposed to the "discounted" Active Duty Military rate. She seemed pretty adamant about not telling me what the price difference was, so I just paid the damn money. $130 later I still have to have holes drilled into my car to affix the front tag & its holder to my car.

Even after all this debautchery, I find that I may have to have an emmissions test done because of a certain local policy. Oh, and I was first told about the truck that I didn't need an emissions test, then that I did need one, and then finally I had to ask for a definitive answer on that. Really? Don't you people get trained with the laws/codes/ordinances? Seriously? So I'm still not quite sure if the truck needs one or not. And with my luck, I'll end up on another wild goose chase for gettings tags for the truck. Which also needs holes drilled into the front of it....and I need to find a tag mount for it. ugh....

I'm really annoyed with the whole process right now. I'm so over this state. When can we go back to someplace normal on the East Coast? People don't hug trees there or make me have two tags.

Long Time No Bloggedy

It's been a really long time since I talked to you Xangaliciousness. I feel right now that I need to vent...and you are here, so here it goes.

The appointment that MIL was supposed to have this morning....didn't happen. I was pretty upset. I mean, I specifically had to ask for the day off so that I could take her and these BOZOS at the hospital "don't have it on the books" so we are told that she has to reschedule it. Seriously? Whatever. We then were off to the Salon for MIL's hair to get done and possibly mine too. I spent way more money on my hair this week than I ever have before and probably never will again. Granted, I got some pretty kick ass highlights (that will be brighter, I have plans for them!) but the instructor that was overseeing the girl who did my hair really was just...rude. So she kind of put a damper on my day. It also took quite a while at the salon, it is a trianing place and the students do the hair so tehre is a LOT of overseeing, which is good, it just sometimes takes a while. The only downside to that today was that Raven has been sick. So I came home to three piles of runny poop and a puddle of pee to clean up.

I just needed to let that all out! :) I'm feeling better now though since I got home and I can relax and take care of my puppy babies and talk to my husband later on (I hope). Its not been easy this last month that he has been gone. Then again, it never really is.

I have some exciting things going on over on YouTube. You should all check it out. Oh yeah, and this one too! I think you'll be glad you did, well...if you're a girl at least. If not...then just bask in the pretty ladies!

Hope all is well with everyone.

Because I haven't blogged in a while, enjoy

Anticipation

Tue, 03 Mar 2009 22:06:12 GMT

I have been so excited for the last week and a half because husband said that I could finally go ahead and purchase the Hello Kitty items from MAC's new collection that I wanted. I didn't really want that much. Just a HK quad and a HK lipglass mostly. I did snag a couple of other things that I had been eyeballing for a little while as well. I ordered my goodies last Friday and I've been checking my order status every 4 hours or so ever since.

I'm losing it here!

I am just SO excited to get this new stuff that I don't even know what to do with myself. Today I have been trying to get some of the house a little bit more organized and set up a space where I can finally start doing makeup tutorials of my own. weeee! I enjoy watching them on youtube so I figure that I may as well give it a shot too. We have everything that I need to do it with, so why not?

I had set up our ancient desktop for myself a few weeks back on the spare room's built in desk (oh the joys of on-post housing) but took that down today to make it into my brand new video making space. The poor little desktop doesn't really run that well anymore. Now there is a ton more space on this desk and I can use my lappy here and there and wherever I please now.

I was trying to wait to make my next video until I got my MAC Hello Kitty collection peices, but I don't know if I can hold out that long. The anticipation is killin' me! I already have a YouTube channel, if you're interested in it click here. Right now its mostly videos from the Avenged Sevenfold concert that Hubby and I went to last month and some videos of our cats. Now I'm geared up with our handycam( all the rest are on digital hand held cameras or my laptop webcam), firewire, and clean space to start making my own little name on YouTube. Who am I tryin' to fool...I don't want interweb fame (okay, maybe a little bit of it wouldn't hurt), I want to have fun and inspire other girls like me who for the longest time had no idea about the joys of makeup.

I just can't wait!
