So, I love LJ. I love my LJ friends, and I need to make a new break. I've started a new livejournal under the id Beatrice828. (yes, like the e-mail. ;) ) It will be friends only.  Please comment there (preferably) or here (if it's really *that* much more convinent) if you would like to be added. I will periodically check this one for now, but once I get the journal exported and in paper form, I'm deleating this journal. 

Hope to see you all in my new digs.  

You know - it was just one of those days where ya felt like you were juuuuuuuust almost on to it - but about 3 times too late. I always did spend more time with my nose stuck up a book rather than learning anything new. Technology was always a toy for me. It was something to play with my brain was bored. I never learned all the cool nerdy ways of playing with my new toy. 

In the big life metaphores, I'm struggling with learning to use shiney fun things practically. I need to quit sitting at my desk playing solitare.  Rather than being a place of recording, my journal should be a thing of creating. What a doof. 
Yes....indeed.....Abby is smarter than me. As is Jordon. As is lots and lots and lots of you. 

Oh yes I believe in a Higher Power. 
Thanks mom. 
Thanks dad. 

Now...how do I use this thing to try to predict the future?????

 Happy VD my friends...... 

Oh - also - kittens have names 

black one is Nefretiti 
grey one is Athena. 

and of course Basho is the king of the castle....(really, counting his human he has three women at his beck and call....)

So, Feb. 8th will be my 30 day sobriety aniversery. In order to preemptively celebrate, as well as give me even more reasons to keep my happy little self in my house *and* because I'm going back to work very soon, I wanted to get Bashokitty a new friend. He's gotten very used to having me to play with 24/7 and I didn't want him to be too lonely during the long hours I tend to work at the resteraunt. So on Sunday, Toad and I went to the cat shelter to get him a new little sister. (I figured a young girl would be easier to assimilate as it wouldn't be as likely to spark any alpha-male problems) 

The shelter consipires against all my weaknesses. Not only is it impossible for me to not sucomb to the cuteness of kitties, they were having a two for one sale. (You don't even want to know how much I've justified this by "but they were on sale....") So now my family has grown. We have Bashokitty pimp daddy extrodinare and his two (yes. I said two.) female little sisters. One is a sold black kitty, the other is a blueish/silver tabby. I have yet to name these little princesses as it takes me forever to name things. (Though I am taking suggestions.) 

The black one is a total lovebug. She seriously loves nothing in the world more than to lay in my lap and let me pet her. Baring the petting, she loves nothing more than to lay in my lap and take a nap. She's slept where I slept since I brought her home. 

The blueish/silver one LOVES to play. She is a jumper too as I've found her on my kitchen counter a couple of times. I can tell already I'll have to reinvest in a squirt bottle. '

Toad's digicamera suffered an accident while he was working on a school project and got broken so I'm not sure how long it'll be till I get picties up of new kittys.

Today after work, I had all three of them chasing the little bird feather toy that I got. They were funny how they all would track where it was but only the kitty that was closest to it at the time would bat at it. Worked well for me as I was able to give them all equal time with the toys. Basho was a little freeked out at first, but he's slowly but surely warming up to them. The only time I heard him hiss at them today was when the tabby accidently landed on him whilest she was jumping after the feather toy. I'm proud at how quickly he's adapting, though they are not all best friends yet. It'll come with time though. 

I went into work today to start cleaning up the joint for the re-open on Friday. It felt very good to get back to doing something on a schedule. I get to go in for a few hours tomorrow and thursday as well - then I'll be back to working full time again. Yay! 

Thanks to everyone who sent me well wishes. Your encouragement means alot to me. It's good to know I've got people behind me as I finally start getting my crap in order. You all rock.

Mood is mellowing some as I get just a little better each day at dealing with stuffs.

Booze - Not a drop since Jan. 7th. 
Smokes - 2 Ciggarettes since Jan. 20.
I'm not keeping track of what the weight will balloon up to. I eat all the time. I mean ALL THE TIME. 
I've read three novels in the past week or so and am working on the 4th. 
My boy rocks my world. 
I should get my first bit of unemployment monies no later than tuesday. you know, because I go back to work on friday. 
I'm looking forward to getting back to work and having somewhere to be each day. 
My sis-in-law is preggo again. We're hoping for a girl. I think my bro's still in shock. 
I had yummy pasta for lunch and may now need a nap.
I love my bashokitty. he even lets me occasionally pet him now.
That is all.

 Because Toad is awesome and because I gave him a long talk about how I spent most of my afternoon trying to figure out a way to make those last three picties I posted not huge, he cropped a WHOLE BUNCH of them for me. 

Yay Toad! 

There's also an animated gif *and* a music video staring the cats to come at a later date. I can't even say how stoked I am that the song *about* my cats (Poo Paws) is being made into a video *staring* my cats. 

Georgie = Proud of her men.

So, my boy Toad and our friend Zac have been working on some music. It rocks. 
You must worship it. 

You can hear tracks on myspace 

Go now. I command thee. Or something.
