A whole month
0 Comments Can you believe that in a whole month, it feels like I have zilch to talk about. This is why I haven’t blogged. That, and work has got me so down lately that I just want to totally veg out when I get home rather than get on the computer. And when I do get on the computer, I’m usually playing WoW or browsing forums or something – I don’t feel like typing much, especially about myself. But I guess that’s basically what a blog’s about, and I am trying to blog more, it’s just I feel I have nothing to talk about. I say it every time; “God, I never blog, I promise to do it more”, but it never happens. So this time, I’m not making that promise, and we’ll see if I keep blogging. I try to aim for every three or so days, but it’s just a little too much to ask when I now have a life of my own, with more to do than just sitting on the computer all day.
So Michael and I are pretty much settled in in our own place now (which reminds me, I need to take more pictures now that the apartment is cleaner – I might on Sunday after vaccuuming), and we have a new addition to the family – a Devon Rex kitty called Layla. She’s four years old, spayed, vaccinated and toilet trained, so that’s perfect for us. We got her last Saturday and she’s still a little freaked out and in hiding mode, but she’s starting to come out of her shell a little and walk around rather than hiding all the time. She’s a very vocal cat, too. I love her like nothing else – she’s my baby. And yes, pics of her coming soon as well!
I really need to be taking more photos – my parents bought me a neat camera for my birthday a couple of years ago, mainly for my photography course, but I have a lot of trouble taking photos because my hands shake a lot, so it’s hard to get a good picture. I really want to get into the Flickr scene, which is all the rage right now, but it’s a great way of documenting your life/lives and brings back a lot of memories when you look back on them. I guess, like all things, I’ll get around to it.
It’s my little brother’s, Sam’s, birthday today, so I called him up and said Happy Birthday, and I think he was pleased to hear from me because although I talk to him often on MSN Messenger, I don’t call him very often, not to speak to him specifically. I put $30 into Mum’s bank account to give to him today, so I hope she has or will do that for me.
Not long until Michael and I are going to Tasmania to see my family again for the first time in a couple of months. We’re heading down on July 11th (Mum and Dad’s 20th wedding anniversary – good excuse for a drink!), so by that time we won’t have seen Mum, Dad or Sam for about 3-4 months. I really do miss them heaps, but it helps that if I feel like talking to Mum or Dad (mainly Mum), she’s just a phone call away. I’ve become so much closer to my family since, ironically, moving away. It’s like all the tension and stuff that was there when I was living there has just disappated, which is fantastic because I hated that. Sam and I have become closer too, although we still have the occasional argument about something small and fickle, but we get over it quicker than we used to, and he’s started hugging me when we see each other and stuff – it’s nice to have that kind of relationship.
And finally, if you hadn’t noticed, I have a new layout up. It’s a premade theme called unwakeable, and it’s very basic and nice. I really don’t have the time nowadays to sit and code my own layouts, especially with WordPress – I get confused easily. I’m fine with doing it if I’m getting paid for it (hey, it’s not greedy, but if I can be paid to do something, I’ll do it over not being paid for something else – c’mon), but otherwise yeah, it’s kind of a ‘put it on the backburner’ kind of thing.
Anyway, I’ll be blogging again shortly (I hope). I get so caught up in shit that I forget and then remind myself to but then forget later and blergh it’s a mess. But anyway – COMMENT every three days and see if it prompts me to blog 
Later!
