ok, so i should probably update. :-/ i know i shouldn't feel obligated to, but i also know a lot people on here care about me and want to know what's up.
gene and i are doing well. we are talking things out more. he'll even push me to talk a bit since i like to clam up when i feel something is going to cause a fight.
i have made plans to make some little changes in my life. well, a couple aren't so little, but you know, gotta have them for my health and all. the first is that i want to eat a bit healthier...maybe not run to bk so much anymore, instead opt for subway. i'm also trying to cook more meals at home and make them healthy, instead of just mac and cheese or something like that, making a salad. the second is that i'm trying to cut back on the amount of caffeine that i drink. this is a biggie since i used to drink at least one two liter a day. i'm not going cold turkey, though i thought about it, but i am moderating it. some days i succeed and some i don't, but i'm trying. gene is in on doing both of these with me and his support is so awesome. biggrin
i have also decided that i need to get back into writing and my graphics. i am going to set aside two hours each week to devote to my writing. i have a lot of stuff that needs to get on the computer before i can begin working on new portions of the stories and i just need to buckle down and work on it. as for my graphics, i'm going to try and devote a bit of time to them. gene wants a new desktop for his new laptop and i saw that wen was interested in a new lj layout. :3
i also need to work more on bottled bliss (which if i have not mentioned here, i will do so more later on). while bliss is still in the early stages of development, i need to work on doing research and make some mock up layouts.
yea, it's a lot of goals, but most of them are little goals. i'm not giving up anything, but just cutting back on how much time i devote to them. the last one is more one for me and gene, and that's for maybe in six months to a year (longer if need be), he takes over paying rent and i can get rid of princess and go to focusing on my other jobs. i have discovered that i am really unhappy with princess and that it is the cause of a lot of my stress, and stress is certainly something i do not need for my health. not only do i feel unappreciated by the customers, but i feel the same from the internal sources too. princess is not what it was three years ago when i was hired. they do not seem to appreciate their employees. what little they do appears to be a front. plus, i am sick and tired of arguing, not only with irate customers that decide i must be the object of their anger, but also with higher up's that feel the need to question me and why they need to talk to the customer, especially when the customer is demanding a supervisor. it's not that i do not enjoy helping people, but i am tired of it all. it's time for a change.
some where in everything i need to work on cleaning my apartment. start getting the china cabinet stuff put away and going through clothes. i know gene'll help me, but i need to do some of it too. i may not always have the energy to do it, but i can try, right?
last night was a depressing not. not that i didn't enjoy seeing miriam, paul, maja, and lance, but i wish it had been under better circumstances. her mom looked so frail and it just broke my heart. i keep hoping for miracles to happen.
dad picked us up from the hospital and we went to panda for dinner. i was going to make yakisoba, but i thought this was better and so did gene. it's kinda our way of thanking him. :3
we came home and watched bleach. luckily, wow was back up and we got my dk to 68. she's now in northrend kicking butt and taking names. xD after all that, it was after midnight and i still wasn't very sleepy, so i decided to go lay in bed and read my book. i finished antrax last night finally! biggrin time to read kushiel's mercy. :3
