Serafina's Corner of the World

On the View, they're discussing how expensive it would be to buy all the presents in the 12 days of Christmas. I've seen several quotes bandied about, and what I wonder is, do any of these quotes take in the fact that the 12 days of Christmas are the 12 days after Christmas, leading up to January 6? Because, well... everything is on sale then. Things might be cheaper.

My living room and dining room have been rearranged. I just need to clean up a few more things (like the table) and it'll be done. I really like it. I moved my table into the living room (since I almost never eat on it, I use it as my desk/craft table, I figured I didn't have to keep it in the dining room) and the love seat into the dining room. My coffee table is also in there, so now I have a little library. Since I mostly sit on my chair, it makes more sense. It also gives the apartment the illusion of space, which is important since it's a glorified studio.

I love my apartment. Like, seriously love it. If I ever move, I want to bring my apartment with me.

I need to get a massage today. I'm getting too many headaches brought on by neck tension. It sucks. What also sucks is the massage place I go to is by a borders books, and I now have a $25 gift certificate to Barnes and Noble. And neither Borders no B&N have "Darkly Dreaming Dexter". Borders says they do, but they're dirty, dirty liars.

I'm supposed to go ice skating tonight. Last night, I lulled myself to sleep by imagining Michael Rosenbaum, Jensen Ackles, and Jared Padalecki would be there (they were filming something down here, and went to the rink after because it's a good rink and MR wanted to skate under disco lights). Jensen and I, of course, hit it off. We're getting married next year.

I've noticed that, when I'm writing het, after the main characters sleep together, it's hard for me to keep writing. It happened with my Firefly fic, and now Supernatural. It's like pulling my nails out, trying to finish the stupid fic.

I should be updating "What Might Have Been" soon. Also, I should get to COTW, too. I just need to make sure to get the timing of the scene right.

Apparently, my 10 year reunion is next year, as in 2007. I didn't realize it was so soon. I still don't understand why they expect me to pay money to see a bunch of people I don't like. But I know there are those who do, so...

The kitty threw up this morning. I was just able to get something under her so most of it landed on paper and not the carpet. Now I don't know where she is. Poor baby.

laurab1 has made me a cover for Lex Luthor, Ace Reporter . It's goregous. Clark looks like a dork, Lois is beautiful, and Lex is even more beautiful. Go admire and fawn over it.

I really need to get working on LLAR2. And my novel. And finish revising COTW 51 to send to beta.

Seriously, people, I'd make a fantastic slave. All you'd have to do is give me tme to write in exchange for room, board, and a personal slave ready to fulfill your whims.

I haven't been able to breathe easily in three days now. It's getting annoying.

I also lost the key to my bike lock and my bike is locked in my backyard. Sucks.

Everyone have a good Sunday!

Didn't get a chance to write the second chapter of my ohsoverywrong!Charlie and the Chocolate Factory fic. If I can't sleep tonight, maybe I'll get on it, but I'm feeling a little sick right now, so we'll see.

I actually exercised today, so I'm proud of myself. I did my cardio tape *and* ballet tap, so I did good. Then I went to lunch to make sure I'd eat something good which, unfortunately, I think is what is making me sick right now. Ah well; it was good food at least.

I think I gained more weight. I'm not sure, but my breats seemed to have grown more. It's starting to get annoying. I liked the size they were before I gained my weight back. And I didn't mind them being nearly C's either. But I think they got bigger again. They need to stop. I'm twenty-six years old. I shouldn't have to deal with growing breasts or pimples dammit.

The people across the hall from my apartment put this stupid goose in front of their house. It's so dumb looking. I wanted Brycee to look at it so I could get a picture, but she wasn't interested. The kid next door, however, *really* likes it. My sister and I walked outside to see him riding the goose. At least, I think that's what he was doing; he looked like he was humping it. And, now that I think of it, I'm not sure if he was wearing pants. Underwear, yes, but pants, no.

We had a good laugh. We also watched Star Wars and laughed at little things we never noticed before. For example, in the scene between Darth Vader and Tarkin, where Tarkin realizes Leia lied to him (duh, btw), the dubbing for Vader got totally messed up. Vader delivers his line (maybe her not giving up so easily) then, a couple seconds after he stops speaking, lifts his hands and gestures to Tarkin. Then Tarkin tells Vader to terminate her immediatly (again, immediatly is *so* not when Leia was executed. Vader practically walked all over the Death Star before carrying out his orders). Anyway, my sister and I decided that Vader's suit must have been malfunctioning and how fun would *that* have been if, at random moments, one of Vader's limbs just went out of control. It woulda been fantastic. :)

Working on COTW tonight. Yay. :)
