So it's two weeks to Christmas, I've done absolutely no gift buying, and I feel as though there is not nearly enough time to squeeze in everything I want to do. Shopping, a trip to see the lights display, watching the entirety of my Christmas movie collection, stuff like that. How did Christmas sneak up on me this year? I blame Thanksgiving being ( Read more... )

So in very odd news, I now have a three year old. I don't know where the time has gone. I am amazed by her on a daily basis. It's kind of crazy and awesome.

Since I logged into this journal this morning, I thought maybe I'd go ahead and do a little update, though I think fewer and fewer people are on LJ these days. Have you all left for Dreamwidth and Tumblr for all your fandom needs these days? Have you all just left fandom altogether? If I'm honest, I really miss fandom a lot, but there is nothing ( Read more... )

Well, apparently it's time for my bi-annual check in with this journal, just in time for the holidays.

My life, in case you're wondering, ( looks a lot like this lately. )

I really don't even have any idea what I'm doing here, but last week I stumbled on a picspam of Elijah Wood, and let's just call it nostalgia or the ghost of fandom past, but I wrote something, in the painted_whiskey-verse, no less.

saw the doctor this afternoon, and the combination of my high-ish blood pressure and the rash-y looking angry red stretch marks on my belly did not impress her. she is my favorite now because she basically took one look at me and told me i was done. i kind of fucking agree. i made it 40 weeks, dude, my due date is thursday, so i do not feel the ( Read more... )

The other day I was talking to Leo about how much happier I am not being super invested in a fandom. I don't want anyone to take that the wrong way, though. I love fandom in general, and there have been so many awesome things about particular fandoms I've been in, and I'm so happy to have had the chance to meet so many different people from so many ( Read more... )
