I just noticed it's Friday the 13th. I still have that bizarre feeling but it has nothing to do with the date. I usually enjoy Friday the 13ths lol Oh, and just to mark it down, 11/11/09 was mine and Grei's 6th anniversary. Of course he was gone for work so we didn't do anything. Not much else to report. Oh, and Luci wants a snake. That's it I think lol

I'm wide awake and have been all night. Not a wink of sleep yet. I feel like something awful is about to happen and I can't shake it.

David Bowie, as Jareth, this is nothing unusual lol

Yes to both actually lol

Unheilig

What is one thing you are happy about that used to be popular and now isn't?
o.O?

If your BF/GF told you they didn't love you anymore and were tired of you, would you believe it?
LOL Yes, I'm quite boring.

If you were kidnapped by some psycho and kept in a basement, is there a special guy/girl out there that would save you?

Yes. The one time I had my nails done. I'll never do it again.

Why don't white people apply fake nails? Why is it always Chinese people?
What Amy said ---> They aren't Chinese, they are Korean, and that is because during the Korean War, the actress from Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds went to Korea, and felt bad for the women, who had no way to make money. So she taught them to do nails and hair, so that they could have a career. PBS taught me this. :D At least, if I remembered all the details right, lol. But I know I got it MOSTLY right.

Yeah pretty much.

So what happens if you get to Heaven [whether you believe or not] and it rains all day long everyday there?
I'd be happy because I really really REALLY hate sunny days... and What Amy said ---> I would simply be amazed enough that I made it to Christian Heaven. I wouldn't even notice the weather.

It was recently pointed out to me that I haven't updated in a long time. I'm not really sure what to put here, so I'll just blather on randomly until I stop thinking of things to say.

Grei is still working with Dad and all is going well there. I'm not at all looking forward to the Winter lay-offs, but there's not much we can do about that one. I still have no real life friends and I'm still a hermit, so nothing new to report there. I'm working up the gumption to do a major purge 'o shit this month. I'm tired of having all this STUFF everywhere. If anyone wants something they know I have, just ask as I may be inclined to give it to you.

( Luci Babble and a photo at the end )

Well, today I turn 30. I don't feel any older, as usual, but I sort of think of myself as an "official" grown up. I cannot trust myself now lol

I really don't think Luci should have the level of comprehension she does at her age lol

I've been teaching her about money lately. I have only shown her a dollar and some change when I was sorting it. I very rarely use cash to pay for purchases at the store, and Luci doesn't really pay much attention (I thought) to the check out process. She found an old credit card today and she hands it to me and says "Look Mommy, money!" ... yeah.

The kid regularly amazes me with her mind. I think she's going to develop some new theory of physics by the time she's five.

It FINALLY happened... Luci's only oh... two years and three months old and she JUST finally started sleeping through the night. By this I mean she only wakes up once in the middle of the night to whine and then goes back to sleep. She has started to "night night" herself IN HER OWN BED ^_^ around 8/9pm and wakes around 2/3am for about 10 mins and then sleeps again until about 7/8am. I am soooooooo happy to be able to really actually SLEEP again! :D

I have to share :)

She was holding my hand and staring up at the rain in both of these shots. I took these outside the restaurant tonight on a whim, hoping for something good. The ONLY edits I did to these (other than the obvious watermark in the corners lol) was to bump the contrast slightly to even out the asphalt. The haze is from the actual environment and the cute kid is all Luci lol


In this one she was just in awe of the rain that she just noticed lol


And here she is saying "Look Mommy! Sky water!" *grins* 

The other day Luci was standing in front of the fish tank making monkey noises at the fish. Then all of a sudden she looks very intently at a fish in the corner and says "Hey! What are you doin over there?"

And today we were driving back from the store and the sun was setting. She kept saying "Bye bye sun. See you later. Bye sun!"

She also enjoys "singing" along with the radio... "Ooooh yeah aaaaah um" lol

She seems to be stuck on happy birthday still. I got her dressed today and she said "Ooh pretty dress! Birthday dress" and while we were at the store she kept telling people happy birthday lol

I can use some more friends in there :)


My friend has a custom bike shop in SL where my character models. I took the pictures and put them in the collage. What I wouldn't do for a body like hers hahaha

Luci just said "I want a birthday". Mind you, we just woke up and she has not heard anything on the radio or seen anything on tv yet. I have no idea where she comes up with these things lol

( Some recent pictures )

Just some shots of last night's fireworks. I love how they came out. There's also one of Luci half asleep and watching them. She was waaaaay tired by the time they actually started the fireworks and pretty cranky half the night because she wanted to play but there was no playground, just a big field. She kept walking around looking for the playground and getting more and more upset.

( A bunch of photos this way )

Just a few little things...

I think my daughter has a super bladder. We tried panties all day today except right before bed and she only peed ONCE all day (aside from first thing in the am in her diaper and right before bed in her diaper) despite the 1938447657 times I put her on a potty. The one pee did not make it into the potty, but landed on the living room floor with a resounding "ewwww i peeeee my foot" lol Then tonight I put her in a diaper, brushed her teeth, read her a story and then the diaper was FULL.

When we were at the library today, Luci took it upon herself to correct another little girl's signing. The girl was saying please but was signing sorry. They are both basically the same movement, but please has an open hand and sorry uses a fist. Luci said "No sorry (signed sorry), please (signed please)"  I was just flabbergasted for lack of a better word and the other mom asked how old Luci was (her daughter is three and speech delayed) and was also amazed at her level of comprehension for her age.

Speaking of comprehension, I don't think I've mentioned before to those of you that haven't heard the cuteness already in person... Luci calls rain "sky water". She knows it's called rain, but she had deemed it "sky water". She came up with this entirely on her own and I find it interesting how her brain works :)

Too lazy to do a cut since they are small images. I'll have some 4th of July photos up to compare Saturday night or Sunday I'm sure lol 

July 2007


July 2008


July 2009



Is it just me or is she getting cuter every year? lol   Grei said he's gonna have to keep a dirty shovel next to his rifle by the front door when she's a teenager. ETA: There is no rifle by our front door now, but there probably will be when she is a teenager *laughs*

If there is one person or more on your friends list who makes your world a better place just because they exist and who you would not have met (in real life or not) without the internet, then post this same sentence in your journal.

I had a dream last night that I had TRIPLET boys *shudder*

On a less scary note, when I weighed myself this morning I have lost another 2lbs from last week. Yay!

"Good morning Mommy, I love you"

*huge grins* I love my baby girl ^_^
