Christmas emo

Going to try and get this out of my system before it rubs off on anyone else. :-\

So let's see. It's Christmas morning and the only thing I'm waking up to is a huge pile of work. It doesn't even feel like Christmas. Hell, with the heat on it could be the beginning of summer - It's sunny as all get out outside. I couldn't get myself ANYTHING. Gary got all his presents, and I got curio's present, and then we got screwed the fuck over by the expensive power supply requirements for the only thing I REALLY wanted - a new video card so I can do things like work in second life without getting motion sick. And now we only have 30$ in our bank account mystically (most likely because we've been eating out waaaay more often than usual this month because of a number of reasons) so I can't even get myself ANYTHING. I'm going to be lucky if we aren't eating ramen by the end of the week, and what little Christmas money we got is going to have to be deposited just to keep the account from going under and maybe buy some milk and meat. Merry fucking Christmas to me. Now to put on my damn happy elf appearance and try and act like I'm not annoyed and depressed.

So I was bored.

You are The Lovers

Motive, power, and action, arising from Inspiration and Impulse.

The Lovers represents intuition and inspiration. Very often a choice needs to be made.

Originally, this card was called just LOVE. And that's actually more apt than "Lovers." Love follows in this sequence of growth and maturity. And, coming after the Emperor, who is about control, it is a radical change in perspective. LOVE is a force that makes you choose and decide for reasons you often can't understand; it makes you surrender control to a higher power. And that is what this card is all about. Finding something or someone who is so much a part of yourself, so perfectly attuned to you and you to them, that you cannot, dare not resist. This card indicates that the you have or will come across a person, career, challenge or thing that you will fall in love with. You will know instinctively that you must have this, even if it means diverging from your chosen path. No matter the difficulties, without it you will never be complete.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

Unsurprising. Though far from a complete portrait or profile.

Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeme

I always fill these out and then don't put them up because I don't think anyone's interested. And while they probably aren't... deal. =P

LOL MEME TIME

First: If you've been tagged, you must write your answers in your own LJ and replace any question that you dislike with a new, original question.

Second: Tag eight people. Don't refuse to do that. Don't tag who tagged you. (Haha yah right)

What were you browsing online before this?

My husband's journal

Have you ever lied to a teacher to get out of a deadline?

Don't think so

What kind of magazines do you read?

Make magazine and Sunset, when I have money. And Architectural Digest.

If you could see one band in concert right now, any band, dead or alive, which would it be?

Ummm. I dunno. I don't think the "bands" I really like do concerts.

What's really creepy?

Stuff that I don't want to talk about.

Name one odd item within five feet of you.

An original Ursula Vernon sketch of a meditating naked mole rat.

What's your current fandom/obsession/addiction?

Putzing around and building stuff in SL.

What are you listening to right now?

Silence.

What are you most excited for?

Both excited and terrified at what to do if my plans to fix myself work.

What websites do you always visit when you go online?

You assume I have any actual regularity? Wait, there's one website I absolutely always visit.. gmail.

What was the last thing you bought?

Hmmmm.. some zone shakes. They should be here in two days.

What's your favorite pass time?

Well, I have nothing but time to putz around, so I have a wide variety. Doing chainmaille, watching HGTV, reading, Building (both IRL and in the virtual world)..

Does the weather affect your mood?

Definately. I hate sunny days. They literally make me depressed. I'm in my best moods on warm rainy days that are nice and overcast.

If you weren't doing this meme, what would you be doing?

Going to bed.

Do you want to learn another language?

Always.

5 things (not people) you can't live without?

Water, food, shelter, medicine, sense of self.

Do you have any siblings?

Nope.

What's something you'd like to say to someone right now?

That I miss them. :-\

What's your earliest memory?

I don't know which was earlier. One was an out of body view of mom and I going up an escalator at ComDex (which mom has confirmed is true.. I got every little detail right). Another is a dream I had that I keep pretty close to myself.

Say something to the person who tagged you:

Ohai curio. even though you don't actually read or know about my journal. c.c

Tag?

lawl.

Stupidly productive day yesterday.

Lazed around for most of the day, and then suddenly decided I needed to run a load of dishes, run three loads of laundry, wash down BOTH showers, go through the WWAD box. Then today I finished running the laundry (haven't been able to do much since before Mysterium due to running around like a chicken with no head) and going through the WWAD box.

(should point out that this was three days ago now. c.c)

Bizzare dream

I have actually never had a dream about Uru.. that changed.

Don't really remember much of it.. just a snippet. I vaguely remember that we were having trouble with an artifact. I don't think it was D'ni, but I don't know for sure. It looked like maybe a reliquary or something. Was a piece of jewelry that seemed to jump from person to person via this sparkly purple effect. I don't remember what it did to people, but it was definately not good. (Methinks I've been watching too much Warehouse13 ;) Next thing I remember, I was sitting (this was real life but Uru btw) in an small market area (still in cavern) talking to someone.. We were talking about the artifact and what was going on. Then the person I was talking to said they wouldn't be able to talk much longer. I asked them why and they pointed across the tiny courtyard where, I'm not kidding, the Empire music started playing and a ton of black dressed DRC employees and Cate walked in and mounted cameras on arms about 3 feet apart all along the wall. Then I woke up.

Also, need to start my Mysterium write up soon.. will probably do that soon.

Fun.
