Happy Saturday Morning!

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 12:50:58 GMT

Logan and I are up bright and early! He slept pretty well last night, particularly for a cranky almost one-month-old! I'd call 10pm-3am, then 3:30-6-15am a successful night in babyland!

This morning I need to get myself showered and Logan before we finish packing up our last few things. We are headed to Corpus Christi today to hang with our girls down there! I haven't seen any of those folks since...hmmm Chicago I think!

I hope everybody knows what they are getting into. This will be the first night Logan has spent away from home since coming home from the hospital. EPIC! Alright girls, get ready to entertain a Spencer!

Okay, Logan wants his breakfast. Have a great weekend my loves!

OMG Thanksgiving is NEXT WEEK. So unreal how fast these days are flying by!

BB Update...

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 13:45:21 GMT

Yesterday I spent the entire day having contractions. Eight minutes apart, pretty mild, and really very obviously not progressing.

I woke up this morning around 4:30am having contractions again. They were a bit stronger and more like 5-6 minutes apart. Nothing that would make me think the baby is coming immediately, but still a worry. I called my doctor's answering service and the doctor on call told me to call back if after an hour they were getting worse...so far they aren't worse, but they haven't gone away either. I took a shower and I FEEL BETTER, but the contractions are still coming pretty steadily. (ahh, and here's another one...) I don't know what to do. The last thing I want to do is head to the hospital only to be turned away/sent home. I have Spencer to consider, too. William is at work, but he can leave any time I need him. I don't want to call him away from work if I'm not going to be having a baby today. ARGH, why can't this kid wait until Tuesday like we planned?!?!? I mean, I don't mind if he comes today, but I wanna KNOW for sure that he's coming TODAY.

Siiiigh, anyway, that's the state of me. I'll try to keep everyone posted, if at least by twitter. If I do go to the hospital today you'll know it....

Keep thinking about us, okay!

♥

Sorry if this is little kid TMI but...

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 23:00:55 GMT

Spencer just pooped in the big potty!

I feel like celebrating, I SWEAR! I'm sure he'll backslide a little and we are still learning about pee pee in the potty (WARN MAMA!) but YAY! Milestones, baby!

Computer Status Update

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 15:10:35 GMT

Those of you who follow me on twitter know that yesterday my computer inexplicably stopped working altogether. I found the screen frozen, restarted it, and for all of yesterday could NOT get it to actually boot up again. I tried a bazillion different things and finally FINALLY it ~restored itself sometime around 9pm while I was at dinner. It still does not function at 100%, and I have NO IDEA what to do! It is extremely massively SLOW and kind of ~~WEIRD~~ now, so there are probably glitches happening as we speak that I know nothing about. I should probably take it to the Geeks, but I do NOT have the money to spend on such things. At least I'm going to be able to move around and save most of my files and things that I'd left on my desktop, so there's that.

So I'm cleaning up my desktop and saving files and things and then I GUESS I'll head over to Best Buy in a little bit. ARGH COMPUTER PROBLEMS ARGH! This puppy is only just over a year old, too!

Anyway, cross all your fingers and toes for me that we get this thing fixed with minimal monetary damages!

Otherwise, life is good! Just so you know!

♥

Patrick Swayze, you will be missed.

Saturday in the park

Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:20:34 GMT

Last night's HBP movietimes with the girls was fun! I came home to Alyssa, Jacque, and a crazy still awake Spencer Jay. Apparently he was just waiting for mama to get home and tuck him in, because he immediately went to bed after I arrived.

Now he's napping and I'm going to get ready for NKOTB today! I have to pick up my sis-in-law at about 3 and head over to cousin's house so we can drive over tp Cynthia Woods Mitchell (UGH) together and head to the meet and greet around 5. Good times will be had, I'm sure. Spencer and all 3 of his cousins are staying with mom-in-law tonight. That should be a zoorific adventure.

Have a wonderful Saturday my friends. I'm off to decide what I shall wear!

HAHAHAHA

Dreamwidth

Tue, 19 May 2009 13:23:45 GMT

Yep, I have a dreamwidth account now. Not that I'm posting there or anything. But I'm eckerlilas over there too, if you are interested.

MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC!

Tue, 24 Mar 2009 00:16:34 GMT

I've uploaded all of the music I purchased Saturday night for anyone who is interested.

Vermillion Lies have two CDs and each lady in the band has her own CD.

You'll find all four CDs at my mediafire via the link below.

Vermillion Lies

ENJOY!

Also, if you have any of the Dresden Dolls albums (or any music by them or Amanda not on an album) I'd love to have it. I only have disjointed bits and pieces at this point. I do own Who Killed Amanda Palmer, so I don't need that one. :D

Thankies. ♥

Oh man you guys.

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 00:18:52 GMT

Okay, so I started showing Alyssa videos of kittens...and somehow we ended up here:

Hahahahaha! What's this kid gonna be when he grows up? Brendon Urie?

The Used are sometimes my most favorite.

Mon, 23 Feb 2009 23:15:34 GMT

I've decided that there can never be enough viewing of this video, so I'm reposting it too. I wanna have it at my fingertips for sad days.

WATCH, REPEAT. = HAPPYFACE.

Thank you Bert and Quinn. Thank you.

Post VD (lolol)

Sun, 15 Feb 2009 19:51:33 GMT

Thank you to all of my lovies for your kind words and thoughts the other day. You know what I'm referring to, and I appreciate you all so much. ♥

William and I bought tickets to see Underworld 3 on Friday, but William appeared to be slipping into a movie-induced coma, so we slipped into Push just as the previews were ending. I was enjoying Underworld but Push was very good, so I'm not complaining.

Yesterday Will, bb and I had breakfast at the local cafe. It was yummy goodness for Will and myself (OM NOM NOM COFFEE), while Spencer played with his magnadoodle and ate freeze dried yogurt bites and toast dipped in gravy. I don't know.

I had late afternoon lunch with some folks at The Monument Inn seafood restaurant. SHRIMP JAMBOREE OKAY.

And last night Spencer and I hung out with kylieq. Good times.

Now I'm off to get my hair all blued up again. Maybe I'll let him cut it again. You never know with me.

A LOVE MEME OF SORTS!

Sat, 14 Feb 2009 00:11:58 GMT

As lovingly stolen from canadiancracka:

Since tomorrow is "Valloween", you should tell me why you love me and I will tell you why I love you back!

PS - true story, I went to post this morning and first typed Halloween instead of Valentine's Day. Poetic, I feel.

♥♥♥

I always forget to do this...

Fri, 13 Feb 2009 17:53:30 GMT

HAPPY BIRTHDAY lolscubadiver!!! I love you so much! How many amazingly great times have we had? We have so many more to come!

Have a fabulous birthday, dude!

♥♥♥

Nothing's fine, I'm torn!

HAPPY FRIDAY THE 13th!

William and I are going to the movies when he gets home from school today around noon. That will be how we celebrate Valentine's day this year (we can't celebrate tomorrow because he has to work). Should we see Taken, Push, Underworld 3: Rise of the Lycans or Friday the 13th??!?!?

Wow, aren't we romantical?

I'm sure he has purchased some sort of something for me as well...because I know him and he is often the best gift buyer in the history of the world. I'll keep y'all posted on that one because frankly, he HATES Valentine's Day. But he still goes through with it all because he LOFFS ME. Also, it's not like I'm a demanding harpy who insists we do something expensive or girly. What about me has ever been GIRLY? Hahahaha. Yeah, movies works for me.

Yesterday I saw He's Just Not That Into You with Mom and Alyssa. SUCH A GREAT MOVIE. I recommend it, most definitely! I cried a little though, just a warning.

Also, I saw Coraline last week. LOVED IT SO MUCH! SEE IT OMG!

I like movies, could y'all tell?

~~~~~~~~~

Tomorrow night I am having a Valentine's Day Mocking Party at my casa if anyone would like to come over. I don't know what we'll do but if you have no plans please do join us. I'm sure we'll make plenty of mischief. (anytime after 5pm)

Alright sirs, off to the showers with me!

A day in the life of Spencer

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 23:14:06 GMT

Spencer is walking around the house saying "E-R" in different tones of voice and expression. Apparently that is him spelling his name for us. We have a little Magnadoodle board that we use to show him shapes and spell out his name. The "E-R" stuck, I guess. He also loves "E". He thinks all letters and numbers are either "E" or "E-R". He's cracking me up.

Wow, my brain is something else.

Tue, 10 Feb 2009 16:42:50 GMT

Y'all. I had a dream the night before last in which Gabe flirted mercilessly with me. Out of nowhere. In the dream I was at a restaurant, sitting at a big L-shaped table with friends and such and out of NOWHERE Gabe appears sitting to my right. It is one of those cook-at-your-table type restaurants. Gabe starts playing with my right hand, drawing stuff on the back with his fingers...then he starts kissing that hand, then laces our fingers together and pulls our linked hands into his lap. Next, he begins feeding me pieces of food with the chopsticks he has in his other hand. Yeah, then I woke up.

I don't know, man. I don't know.

I needed some amusement

Wed, 04 Feb 2009 22:21:59 GMT

Here, have the cutest picture I've seen on the internet in quite a while.
Seriously. James Franco.

And a few of the funniest videos:
Best cover EVER? Yes, I think so.

Sometimes I just need to laugh, okay. HAHAHA

They made me smile and giggle, at any rate.

PS - I'm almost finished with my playlists and uploads. I'll make a music post soon!!!

Show me some funny or cute or hilarious stuff. Share the happy!

I can't get over this song

Tue, 03 Feb 2009 15:55:44 GMT

Open Happiness makes me grin like an IDIOT, okay. A CAPITAL "U", OKAY.

I'm making a happy music playlist for myself. Songs that I hear that just make me smile like I can't help it. I can't stop myself. We all have songs that make us unreasonably happy. What are yours?

Unrelatedly, I'm also making a playlist of songs about zombies. Or that mention zombies. I know it is weird to make both a happyface playlist and a zombie playlist simultaneously. Oh well, y'all knew I was weird going in.

We're taking Spencer and a couple of the little kids from church to the park sometime around 11am today. It is gorgeous outside and we don't want to waste the sunshine. I wish y'all could join us!

Open Happiness!

Sun, 01 Feb 2009 23:23:24 GMT

My updates have been so random lately. Huh.

Super Bowl is getting started and I'm leaving the house in an hour to see bands with Jacque instead of watching. Karate High School is playing at Java Jazz tonight if anyone is interested ($12 I think).

I'm updating my iPod with the Open Happiness song and a copy of the Desolation Row video (kdnlfkjadslkfjaklsjfahsflk).

BB is taking his second nap of the day. I'll have to wake him in a little while to get him ready to hang with his Gigi.

I've missed concerts (I'm sure you've noticed), so I'm excited for this one tonight, even if it isn't full of my fangirls!

MAYBE

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 21:00:00 GMT

MAYBE we are building a new world.

MAYBE we'll paint marshmallows purple, or free circus elephants.

MAYBE we'll ride on chocolate merry-go-rounds, or make tennis shoes for camels.

MAYBE we'll find a child who feels unsafe at home and take her out of there right away.

MAYBE we'll mail so many letters to God, that everything gets all healed up.

MAYBE we'll take all the mean people, and use them to full up the ozone hole.

MAYBE when we see a sign that says "drawbridge', we'll get out and do a lovely bridge sketch.

MAYBE we will make airplanes out of the same material that the "Black Box" is made of.

MAYBE we'll live in real communities, equal for everyone.

MAYBE 100% of the people will vote, and start a new world.

MAYBE everybody is an Angel, God, Animal, Nature, all rolled into one bundle of nerve and tissue, lip and bone.

MAYBE we'll stop fighting and trying to be right.

MAYBE there will be nap rooms everywhere, and cars will run on kisses.

MAYBE dreams are real.

MAYBE all the homeless will move onto all the golf courses.

MAYBE schools are filled with imagination, and prisons have nutritious food and spiritual programs.

MAYBE we are all free, safe and well loved.

MAYBE we all want the same things.

MAYBE we all. love. everyone.

Question...

Wed, 14 Jan 2009 21:45:39 GMT

So would y'all be interested in a repost of all of the ultrasound pics and videos from my pregnancy with Spencer? Most of the links to the pics I posted originally have died and I was just browsing through them on my computer a few minutes ago and thinking...."hey, I wonder if my flist would like to see those again or for the first time for those of you that came along after bb spencerdom." But yeah, is that of interest to anyone? I might just do it anyway, so I can put them all in one post for my own happiness.

Did I mention that I HATE CLEANING MY OFFICE? Because I totally do. I've been in here most of the day, and I keep letting myself get distracted by things like pics/vids of bb spencer, Ben&Jerry's and Miss Congeniality, etc etc etc. At the end of all of this cleaning, I will be moving Spencer to the office and the office to his tiny bedroom. That should be interesting.
