4x4x4

1637 Friday 30 December 2011

Christmas was awesome.

I got a Sonic the Hedgehog shirt from Ezra, and Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales from Deborah. And Ty came over 2 days ago and gave me a 4x4x4 Rubik's Cube, a nice addition to my collection so far. I fucking love that thing. And it was all thanks to him that I got obsessed with it in the first place lol. I got most of it down. I need to memorize a few algorithms for certain cases and parities. But other than that, I can't wait to get a 5x5x5.

Ezra gets off work at 9. I've been teaching him how to solve a 3x3x3. I was so happy when he asked about it. And he's getting really good at it too.

I'm bored.

Woooooooooo.

So THIS happened today.

2358 Monday 19 December 2011















And I thought it was pretty awesome.

Tomorrow (technically today) is Burger King day. And Ezra's off Wednesday. I applied at the closest Walmart. Five more days until Cthulhu-mas.

Also, I've been in a MUCH better mood. Giddy and whatnot. I like it. Last night, Ezra and I were going through iTunes (mental reminder to copy his MLP OST and Daft Punk discography) and talking about Tony Hawk games. Oh, and he and I took a walk the other day. It reminded me of walking with him at Western. And we got to enjoy the gorgeous sunset together. I think that's what I needed. One on one time with him. :)

Uhhhhhmm... I can't think of anything else to say at the moment.

I need a drink.

1603 Friday 16 December 2011

...Of water. I've done so much today. And I'm damn proud of myself. I woke up around the time Ezra got out of the shower. After he and Meryl left, I biked around the triangle, folded Ezra's laundry, did mine, cleaned and vacuumed the bedroom and living room, unloaded and refilled the dishwasher, and called the Food Lion I used to work at. About to take out the trash in Ezra's room, the bathroom, the living room, and the kitchen.

My back, hips, and knees hurt. But I think I make a fantastic housewife. ^_^ Here's to hoping my fine work doesn't go unnoticed. ;)

Unfortunately, the only downfall to today (besides Ezra not being here) is menstruating. Explains why I've been in an indifferent mood. Most of it, I think, was caused by my desire for attention. I mean, I'm not "needy" or "clingy" but I still like getting hugs and kisses. :3 Ezra's been at work, or on reddit, or playing WoW, or on his Droid. I felt a little left out. But he's been saying "I love you" more, and rubbing my back, and giving me random hugs. So, I'm feeling tons better. I'm sorry I need affection to survive lol.

Ezra doesn't get home for another 2 hours. I'll have to find something else to do. Maybe yoga or flute. Or both.

I think I'm going to make myself some "lunch." Omnomnom!

Phew...


1517 Thursday 15 December 2011

It sure has been a while.

Called the collection agency (Student Loan) and got a forbearance on my account. I owe $2,873.25 and my first payment is WAY past due. Luckily, I'm awaiting my request approval, and if it is approved, I won't have to pay anything until June 2012.

I also called my previous employer, Mark, but he wasn't working today. I was informed that he would be in tomorrow, and to call after 14:00. Hopefully I can get a reference from him so I can work at a Food Lion near here.

Ezra started his first job at RadioShack yesterday (15:00-21:00) and works today and tomorrow from 12:00 to 18:00. While he's been gone, I've done numerous things. Mostly played my flute (Legend of Zelda, Kingdom Hearts, Donkey Kong, and Pokemon music) and did his laundry. Today, I tried to teach myself bagpipe. I know the fingerings now. But super-fail at attempting to play anything good. I've done some yoga as well. No use in sitting here doing nothing all day. Hopefully, I can get some biking in before Ezra gets home. Not around the triangle, but just up and down the street. Gotta burn calories. I want to lose inches. Tired of feeling sluggish and unfit. I'm at a normal weight for my age and height, but I feel the need to work on a few things before it gets out of control.

I can't wait to read Grimm's and Hans Christian Anderson's Complete Fairy Tales, and Arabian Nights. I've been dying to add to my collection (Barnes & Noble leatherbound classics) but so far I only own H.P. Lovecraft's Complete Fiction. One day, I hope to own them all (Edgar Allen Poe, Sherlock Holmes, Iliad & Odyssey, Shakespeare, Divine Comedy, etc), on proud display somewhere.

Ta-ta for now, everypony!

Cold.

1546 Monday 14 November 2011 and 1422 Tuesday 15 November 2011

Woke up yesterday with a sore throat, fever, sinus congestion and runny nose. Long story short, got some Cold-EEZE, and slept. Feeling SO much better, ears still feel cloudy and going through this box of tissues pretty quickly.

Going home on Wednesday.

Been watching Ezra play Skyrim.

I would love to have my hair like this (drew this in paint, btw ^_^):
If I do, I'll have to wait for it to get longer. But I have to look at the long-term, the growing out will take a long time, then there's future wedding hair. I mean, it looks awesome. But I know that I'm a "cut hair on a whim" type person, and I just really want my hair to be long again. We'll see.

Vivian is laying beside me, twitching in her sleep.

I'm hungry.

I'm having baby thoughts. Brain is at that age, wants to continue human race.

I found these gorgeous rings online, but I saw one that I really like. I'm not a big-ring person. The simpler (and cheaper), the better. And I want sapphire, if there's anything next to it then maybe cubic zirconium.
This one really caught my eye (a lot of other ones did too, but looked gaudy and expensive). The others were cute, but holy shit...


While watching Project Runway with Ezra and asked him what colors were going to be in our wedding. He said brown, of course. xD I thought, not bad. Teal goes good with it.
But I've really wanted yellow flowers in my bouquet (favorite color), so I dunno if I can anymore. Maybe yellow and teal. I don't know. I think about that more when the time comes.

Wish this sore throat will go away, I can deal with the mucus.
Blegh,

World of Warcraft

1640 Wednesday 9 November 2011

I played it before, at Ian's house. I had a level 15 balance druid Worgen. But Ezra got me REALLY into it. I now have a level 20 elemental shaman Draenei, a level 13 beast mastery hunter Blood Elf, a level 11 balance druid Troll, and a few level ones (Night Elf, Undead, Orc, and Dwarf). I have a trial account so the level cap is at 20. Once I get enough money, I hope to buy it. Being a Blood Elf hunter was probably my best in-game decision. It's so much fun.

Ezra just got his holy paladin Blood Elf to level 85. I'm so proud of him. I made him something last night to tell him that I love him, and to congratulate his achievement. It took me a few hours, because I wanted everything to be perfect. Not a pixel out of place. I really hope he likes it. I think it's cute, makes me d'aww. :3

As I was making it, I found out something I really like doing. No idea why. There was a part of it, that if I wanted it perfect and true to gameplay, I'd have to "Inspect Element" on an item that already existed. It involved some HTML codes that I was familiar with, and some that I've never experienced. Like the hands-on learner I am, I tinkered around with it until I found what I was looking for and until I got it exactly how I wanted it to look. As I was creating the attributes, I tried to keep it true to game as well. I wanted it to makes sense, as correct as possible. I can only hope I succeeded. When I was happy with the result I print screened it, and did all my editing in Gimp. I just now got the hang of the basics. Enough to create things I'm proud of. I have a lot to learn, and I can't wait to learn more and see what I'm capable of (both HTML and Gimp).

In other news, I'm probably going home this weekend. I don't want to, but I need to. I need to send in an appeal for financial aid at WCU, as my FAFSA was denied. For that I need my step-father's death certificate, which I can only get from my mother if I go back home. I'll probably have to do other things in order for Western to approve me, but I'll find out more about that later in the week. And I can only hope my mother is less mad at me.

Reddit. I got more addicted to it than I thought I would. I never thought I'd leave FunnyJunk, but I did. And it was for the better. Reddit is larger, and more interesting. And Reddit Enhancement Suite just makes everything better. I saw something a little while back that reminded me of Ezra. "Dear WoW/Reddit, give me my boyfriend back." I laughed at how relevant it was. But then I realized, he enjoys it. It's his hobby. Like others have cross-stitching or backyard soccer. And I like them too. They give us something to do, and they are two more things that we have in common with each other. I'll admit, sometimes I wish he'd pay more attention to me than that dang computer/smartphone lol, but I'm not going to take away something that he loves to be selfish. I can wait. And besides, with the Internet there, there is practically billions of subjects we can discuss. Little do I realize, the thing I'm jealous of, is what brings us that much closer together.

Ezra, I love you so much. I'm not going to leave you. Ever. I know that you were hurt in the past and are scared that I might do the same thing. I'm not, I promise. I've waited my whole life for you, and I vow to try to make you the happiest man in the world. I want to marry you, have your cute little babies. Watch them grow up, grow old with you. I'm yours forever. You are my everything, and always will be.

And with that, I conclude this portion of "A Day in the Life of Elle," see you next time.

Halloween Party

0224 Sunday 30 October 2011

Went to Sam's house with Ezra. She had a halloween party. I met Candace for the first time, saw Shelby for the second time, and met Katie, Kaitlyn, Ely, Tara, Megan, and Whitney. They all seemed awesome, and I hope I get to talk to/see them again.

Ezra is going to be playing WoW again.

I think I need a new battery for my laptop. Great...

Goodnight,
