My mother got married yesterday, guys. My mother. She is now a married woman. She's changing her last name to Reed tomorrow. She is MARRIED. *still in shock* She told me today, and only because I called her and asked her why she was acting weird!

MY STEPFATHER IS MY AGE. HAVE I MENTIONED THIS? HE IS THREE MONTHS OLDER THAN I AM. EDIT: I AM 23. I FORGOT TO MENTION.

I now have Criminal Minds icons. Life is good. *glee* I even started writing again. Oh, words barely express how much I love this show.

Tonight I decided I would get back to work on my epic LFDH story >:( It wasn't half-bad, it just needs to be finished for fuck's sake. I'd written six thousand words for it before I quit, and that is a lot of motherfucking words. It wasn't even half done! D:

Anyway, I just realized that I get out of work in 20 minutes and I can't enjoy my nightly ritual of falling asleep while watching episodes of Planet Earth. Wtf, this is not cool. I have never felt put upon to stay up all night, but I guess today I do.

Time for more Criminal Minds. Maybe even some more writing. 5 am is a long way away :(

_{some things will never end, they're just too strong}

in other news, life is rad.

For the record, my 'weekend' happens on Tuesday and Wednesday. These are very fine days to have off. Especially this week, when Seattle got a break from the overcast weather we've been having and it was fucking gorgeous.

I just got my camera back from the friend I loaned it to (for like THREE MONTHS OMG) so I celebrated by taking a fuckton of pictures. I started with some test shots of my totally awesome cats:

Occasionally, Stuka is quite stately.

But mostly he's just handsome. And fat.

I just really like how these came out.

Molly is being stalked by Gertrude. He should probably get a restraining order.

Snikt and Molly still don't get along really well :(

But she's so pretty!

Then we went to Hilarie's and hung out with her and Damien. Obviously, this is Damien. Isn't he darling? <3

That was the point at which he grew weary of our company. He was like "FUUUUCK YOUUUUU".

After we left Hilarie's, we went to Katy's Cafe. Best coffee in Seattle that I have found~ Nat and I went there for breakfast on Tuesday. As usual, it was awesome.

We saw Roland there. Roland is pretty cool, so we hung out.

Recumbent bikers! Do these guys even exist outside of Seattle?

I totally miss my old neighborhood. *sigh* Oh, the Central District was lovely.

This was taken in Little Saigon. I love that intersection, it's so cool.

We're on our way back north, here. Yay Seattle!

And the University District, for good measure.

Later, I took these while getting ready to have thesecondlaw and her gentleman friend Devon over for dinner. Which was awesome, by the way.

Nat was like, "I AM GOING TO RAKE THE YARD", and by God, she did.

My second attempt at making bread. It came out way better than the first time. Still kind of dense, though.

Brussels sprouts and bacon. Delicious. So very delicious.

suzukiblu, being social <3

The next day, Nat and I went on an adventure to find delicious coffee closer to the new house. We love Katy's, but it's like, 7 miles away from us now. We like coffee within walking distance. We've tried a few places but nothing was working (note: stay away from Diva Espresso, I am so serious, it is nasty).

I think we have found the place. *beams*

Cloud City. It fucking rules. All the counter-boys wear dashing hats. I want to just, hang out for no reason.

This dude was hanging out, waiting for his human. He was so sad and sweet.

He knew how to shake hands! :D

He loved Nat. Like, would not let her leave. He kept putting his paw on her leg when she tried to stand back up.

We saw this on the way back. It's like, the Terminator Bug. Wiggy.

Just in case we forget we live in the Maple Leaf neighborhood.

I love a classic truck~

This is a sculpture in someone's yard. It kind of freaked me out. Check out the way-too-long fingers.

White cat! So pretty.

Black cat! It was hanging out with the white cat. They're friends~

This dude is always hanging out in our neighborhood. He won't deign to be petted, but he's cool.

Okay, that concludes my picture post.

*needs to crash now, weep*

another moment passed that will not, will not come again}

I don't know about you guys, but I get a lot of shit from Amazon used. I guess it's called the Amazon Marketplace? Whatever, anyway. I have had no problems, never, so I guess it was inevitable that I would eventually deal with shitty service.

This is the email I sent, yesterday:

I guess I could have been more succinct, but I assumed it would get the point across.

This is what I woke up to, this morning:

NO FUCKING SHIT SHERLOCK. *PULLS OUT HAIR*

I think it's the "that's why" that pushes my buttons. Because clearly, I am a woman, and become confused very easily. Hell I'm already confused, what was I talking about?

This is my second email:

This is what I ordered:

This is what I got:

I'm fairly certain it is lacking in that Bruce-Willis-ness I was craving.

Anyway, he hasn't responded yet. *twitch*

Also I have apparently agreed to work the most insane shift ever for the next two days. WTF was I thinking?

_{and the breath you spoke those words with belongs to me}

lisaaaaaa, what have you done? :(

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 02:58:24 GMT

Dear thesecondlaw,

I just heard stereowire yell up to me, from the kitchen, "I ACCIDENTALLY ALL THE CHOWDER."

*is ded now, from lulz*

oh, interwub <3

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:22:49 GMT

It only took six seasons, and three years after Nat and I got into NCIS and discovered it had virtually no fandom to speak of, that people on my flist are starting to get into it and get fannish about it. I'm sure NCIS El Gay has something to do with it, but I don't care, because NCIS: Original Flavor is wonderful, and it's about time the fandom hivemind started to notice <3

That's all.

kitties!

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 05:27:18 GMT

So, Snikt managed to escape my lens last night. I'm not sure how she did it, but when I came out of my room last night on break, I saw her chilling out by the window and hurried to get a quick picture of the elusive GirlKitty.

_{razor sharp, razor clean

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 02:22:00 GMT

YAY NEW HOUSE PICTURES. Finally. I walked around for a half hour and took a whole fucking bunch, so be warned. Lots of boring pictures of my belongings after the cut.

Front of the house. That's Bruce, stereowire's truck.

The front yard. Wait for it.

Not like that's creepy or anything right?

They came with the house.

The entryway! We're awesome.

And here's the library! It's so lovely. We also call it the "ballet studio". We're planning on getting some rugs and a chair or something for it.

SO EMPTY.

Bay window~ It's so awesome~ Gertrude likes it!

That'll be the fireplace and Rin's bookshelves. I swear to God, the painting of the cat was there before we moved in.

And now we head into the actual living room, where we keep the couches :D That'll be Nat's keyboard. It's all a tight fit but we really like how it looks.

Damn though, we need to put up our damn posters. It feels so creepily empty.

The kitchen! It's so fucking huge!

Seriously. Huge.

Still the kitchen, but the "dining" part. Complete with a lovely view of the yard! And there's Molly, being tiny.

Everyone wants to climb that tree. No one gets to. :(

Random crap!

Heeeeeee.

The stuff currently on our whiteboard. You can ask. Maybe Nat will deign to explain wtf is happening.

Utility room! I have a washer/dryer! *rolls around happily*

Coat closet. The little note says "Welcome to Narnia". Sometimes we refer to this as the Harry Potter closet, or "Jade's room".

:D

Going up the stairs...

And Molly follows me!

stereowire's room! Like you couldn't tell. That'll be Messerschmidt, Captain Deutschland, Crack Bear, Rodneysaur and Johnpenguin in plain sight. I'm sad Ram Emanuel (the Sheep of Staff) didn't make it into the frame. He's awesome. He has an eyepatch.

The spare bedroom.

The totally rad bathroom.

And this is the view from aforementioned rad bathroom.

Stuka followed me! :D

Stuka again! And a window at the top of the staircase. Rin's room and mine are at the other end of the hall.

suzukiblu's room! SHE HAS NOT UNPACKED >:(

My room is the best~ SERIOUSLY LOOK AT IT.

It's just so warm and nice! Look at all my craaaaap.

And this is the view from my room.

So very lovely.

wtf is Dean Winchester doing in my room? D:

OBLIGATORY FEETS.

:D

_{all the robotic families

for the record, i have to ask these questions.

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 05:09:15 GMT

Here is a list of the questions that I just asked a customer, and her answers:

Ally: "Are you of any Hispanic or Latino heritage?"
Caller: "What does that mean?"
Ally: "...Are you of any Hispanic...or Latino...heritage?"
Caller: "I don't understand."

I explained what it meant to be of any kind of Hispanic or Latino heritage, and eventually, we figured out she was a white chick xD

Ally: "And what is the highest level of education you've received?"
Caller: "What?"
Ally: "You know...what was the highest grade you made it to?"
Caller: "Uhhhhhhhhh...like, when I quit school?"
Ally: "That'll do."

*headdesk*

Ally: "And this question is personal in nature, so you can skip it if you want, but do you consider yourself to be: A, heterosexual or straight? B, gay or lesbian? C, bisexual?
Caller: "I have a husband."
Ally: "...A, B, or C?" ***
Caller: "What was the first one?"
Ally: "Heterosexual or straight."
Caller: "I guess straight, not heterowhatever. I like men."

*** Sometimes people say "I'm normal" (doesn't that just piss you off?), which has caused me to act dumb if they say anything but A, B, or C.

There was more, but typing this up made me want to curl up in the fetal position and weep.

:D :D

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 04:13:00 GMT

I just got my camera back! I need to charge it tonight but tomorrow, if the lighting is nice, I will take many pictures~ <3

We've lived in the house for not even two weeks, and now three of my friends are moving to my neighborhood in less than a month. Crazy, but awesome. Crazy-awesome.

_{why are the robots so sad?}

hi, you're in the part of the plane that falls off.

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 17:31:42 GMT

Whooooooo both my roommates are out of the house! I have the whole thing to myself! Whooooo!

*does nothing different*

Today I discovered I had to use a belt to keep one of my skirts from falling off. I find that fascinating. How much longer till I can start rooting through my old clothes to find things I miss wearing? *happy sigh* The weird thing is I'm still hovering at 212 but I do look better so...oh whatever, I'd stop weighing myself altogether but it's kind of compulsory at this point. "Hey I'm at the gym! Oh hey a scale!", etc.

I have so many things I need to waaaatch :( I also need new icons.

Anyway yeah I have nothing interesting to say today.

edit: wait wait wait, rent is paid, bills are mostly paid, and I still have money? o_o

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:05:00 GMT

When the fuck did it get to be midnight :( Midnight thirty? What. *sigh* :( I have so many things I wish to blog about!

1. Here's an excerpt from my life:

Sometime earlier this week, Nat and I decided the living room was too much of a wreck to ignore anymore. We decided to straighten up a bit, do some more unpacking, etc. She then asked me to fetch Rin to help. As opposed to going to Rin's room and inviting her to join, I went to the foot of the staircase and yelled:

"HEY RIN GET DOWN HERE. WE ARE GOING TO CLEAN THE FUCK OUT OF THE LIVING ROOM."

I heard her yell back, "What??"

"YOU HEARD ME. IT'LL BE SO HARDCORE BABY. I AM TALKING PAY-PER-VIEW LEVELS OF CLEANING. X-X-X."

"Oh my god," she yelled. "What is wrong with you two?!"

From behind me, Nat stopped laughing for long enough to sigh, "Why can't we do anything like normal people?"

2. I want to talk about NCIS L-GAY for a minute. Is anyone else watching it but me and Nat, uh, apparently 6 million other people? According to CBS it's their new #1 show. Whaaaaat XD

Look, I know why I love NCIS LA, but I admit I am slightly confused as to why anyone not fannish would watch something so incredibly homosexual. Earlier, Nat and I agreed that this show is "the gayest thing since balls first touched". They seem to open up every episode with Callen and Sam having an adorable Married Couple argument, then at some point in the episode, one of them is bound to say something like "you're always like this!" or "I complete you!". I'm not even exaggerating the latter.

An aside to CBS: sometimes a bromance can only go so far before it's full-on gay, guys. Keep it up. <3

3. I seem to be watching Criminal Minds again! We started watching it before James moved in, then I kind of forgot about it for a whole year but Nat found the sure-fire way of making me want to get back into it.*

_{*here's a hint: one of the main male characters is repeatedly stabbed and possibly sexually assaulted by a serial killer. god, she knows me so well.}

Anyway, I'm watching the first season again since it's been a while. I'd completely forgotten how much I love it. Reid! Hotch! Morgan! Elle! JJ! GARCIA <3 (Inigo Montoya I refuse to get attached to you!) I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH. Oh, like I need more useless information about serial killers floating around in the subspace of my brain.

Nat tells me all of the Hotch/Reid is eye-gougingly bad. Please, someone tell me this isn't true :(

4. Man, I really love Shiny Toy Guns! D:

_{your nights will stay forever if you dare once more touch me}

some pictures

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:29:47 GMT

stereowire took some pictures of the house yesterday, and they can be found here. As soon as I get my camera back, I'll post some of my awesome new room and some of the yard~

i had a chicken leg once. i had to wear corrective shoes.

Long day at the office. Very tired now.

For some reason I am going to spend the next hour or two writing for NaNo instead of sleeping, however. Why do I hate myself? :(

Edit (1:55am): My word count is 488. Now I sleep.

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 06:47:10 GMT

Happy Halloween, bitches! <3

For the holiday, my costume was that of a grown up who has to work in a cubicle labyrinth because the internet at the new house is incompatible with the server that enables me to work from home. Hopefully this will change on Wednesday, when we have a tech dude stopping by to upgrade our modem from the dark ages.

I don't know if I've mentioned this recently, but I hate working in the office. It's noisy, crowded, and although the view is gorgeous, it's really not worth the commute and the stupid shoes and fancy pants.

I half-figured I'd end up having to commute to the office today (since the problems have been going on since Thursday), so I ... half-dressed for it. I spent my entire morning in nice business slacks, pink argyle slippers, and a t-shirt that says "MY CAT DREAMS OF SPATULAS".

Naturally, I had to answer the door while wearing this. *sigh*

On the plus side, my room is unpacked. I have found all my clothes and all my books. I have found two new bands I really like (Tiger Army and Shiny Toy Guns). I have apparently signed up for NaNoWriMo.

Oh yeah,

Aren't they fabulous?

Hmmmmm, Shiny Toy Guns is like... Depeche Mode crossed with The Petit Project. Which is just as insane as it sounds.

_{let me see you

moving day 4/4

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 07:42:14 GMT

If anyone's curious, the 4-day period is merely the time I have off from work to get the bulk of the move out of the way.

Today we organized the kitchen (which is twice the size of my old one) and kind of figured out what the hell we're doing in the living room. It took the majority of the morning. Ugh. We even started to unpack some DVDs and books!

I still can't find any of my damn clothes, though XD I've been rotating the same three shirts and jeans for about a week. YES I AM AWARE HOW GROSS THAT IS >:( I will do laundry tomorrow. (Especially now that I don't need to PAY to use the washer/dryer!)

Today the three of us went to IKEA and, no joke here, I spent 399.75 dollars. Considering the awesome new shit we have, it was so worth it.

Time to roll around on my new bed :D

ummmmmmmmmm,

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:09:13 GMT

Is anyone else watching the new season of the Venture Brothers? Because the newest episode, Handsome Ransom? It was so fucking terrifying that I had to pause it about ten minutes in to collect suzukiblu to watch the rest with me.

Actually, I should rephrase: it wasn't scary, exactly. It was traumatizing to my psyche. We got to the middle of the episode and we just couldn't stop screaming and hiding under the blankets.

To sum up:

AHDHGKJDFHGKHKHGSKHFGHKFJH AHHHHHHHHHH WTF VENTURE BROTHERS WTF

*CAN'T STOP SCREAMING*

IN RIN'S WORDS: I WILL NEVER LOVE THIS WAY AGAIN.

moving day 3/4

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 08:17:07 GMT

I'm very tired right now. Some thoughts:

1) We're done at the apartment. We got every last thing out, cleaned a bit, and left the keys in the kitchen.

2) The house is still a fucking wreck. We haven't unpacked anything more than a few boxes of food. That's IT.

3) Nat and I are meeting some potential roommates tomorrow morning, but it's kind of informal. Technically, that's the plan, but we haven't gotten confirmation from them yet, so maybe we might have some time to actually CLEAN OUR HOUSE before strangers traipse around it.

4) After the roommate thing, Nat and I are driving down to the IKEA so I can get a new bedframe! Yay! The one I used to have, it's been broken for about a year or so now. It was propped up on stacks of books. When we moved, I decided it was time to say goodbye :(

5) I think it's time to fall asleep watching the newest episode of the Venture Brothers.

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 17:29:15 GMT

Here's me in my new bedroom (technically that's my closet, shh) and hanging out with Molly. In our household, he holds the distinguished title of "Saddest Kitten in the World". He's so TINY.

As you can see, I am wearing my What Would Batman Do shirt. Life is good.

_{meth, meth, biker boyfriend, dead cop, technicality--meth!}

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:13:58 GMT

I HAD THIS GREAT IDEA FOR A BLOG. I'm not sure what to call it. I'm thinking "oh god my eyes, why are you wearing that". What do you think? Maybe something shorter. Anyway.

I'll bet that when you guys encouraged me to draw again,

I have a pencil-paper version of this posted on our kitchen whiteboard with the notation "I will never sleep again", which is officially what I am calling this masterpiece. Things to bear in mind:

1) I saw this girl on the bus. She was probably a size 22, maybe bigger. Just picture a Sumerian fertility goddess.

2) Yes, those are rips in her stockings. Around the crotch. There were more, but I started to lose the will to live the longer I worked on them.

3) Yes, those are her panties, crammed up her ass.

4) I have no idea what the thing on top was. It looked like some kind of gray yarn sack-dress.

5) She was glorious.

moving day 2/4

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 07:17:43 GMT

We're almost done! So close! I shall sum up this day thus:

1. Jesus christ why do we have so much furniture and why is it all so damn heavy? :( It took two trips to get the last of our big furniture but at least the only stuff left is from the kitchen. Everything from the kitchen XD

2) Stuka did not leave his nest until this morning, when Nat came to wake me up. Then he came out and cuddled with me. It was pretty rad. We can't let them wander around the house yet, so he's content exploring my bedroom and getting his fur all over my stuff.

3) Getting Molly to the house was... an adventure. He cried. Endlessly. He made the saddest wailing noises from his little kitty carrier. It broke my stupid heart :( Then he went into this silent mode where all he did was hunker down in terror. When we got him to the house, he hid under my pillow. I've never seen him do that before! It took all day but he settled down. Right now he's sleeping next to me on the bed. He's so damn tiny.

4) The house, I repeat, is fuckin' rad. The downstairs is still wrecked, filled with towers of boxes and empty bookshelves. Also couches with no cushions. They look naked, it's weird. I think that'll be my project for Day 3 xD Pictures are forthcoming, although I don't have a camera right now, so we'll see when that'll be.

5) Unrelated, but: All the buzz I've been seeing about White Collar? Totally worth it.

Okay that's all~

edit: why did I just exclaim "IT'S NOT CALLED THE 'VULCAN NECK-MELD' YOU RETARDS" at an episode of MST3K? I think I need to go to bed :(

moving day 1/4

spacehussy@robot-heart.com — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 07:55:13 GMT

*rolls around* oh my godddddddddddd.

It is now 12:30 and we have kind of officially moved into the house. We still have a bunch of stuff at the apartment (including two of our three cats), but today we moved the couches and beds and then spent a few hours figuring our shit out.

Currently my room contains: one mattress on the floor, a space heater, my iMac (Dexter), a bag of clothes, some hair product, a litter box and a food dish and one terrified cat. Stuka does not like change. However he was the only one who would even allow himself to be transported. The others pitched an unholy fit so we had no choice but to leave them until tomorrow morning when we return for the rest of our stuff.

Nat and I made a nest of our jackets for him in my closet, and he has shown no sign of wanting to leave that nest for at least a week XD

I kind of want to talk about the move some more, but we have to be up and about in a few hours, and I am very tired. I am going to watch some MST3K and go to sleep :(

Huh. Tonight I picked up my tablet and actually used it for the first time in probably two years. Well, I suppose that's not accurate. I do pick up my tablet and fiddle around with tattoo ideas off and on, but I tried to draw tonight. And I can absolutely guarantee that has not happened in a fucking long time XD

I won't blame stereowire and suzukiblu for why I eventually gave up, but I won't lie, the paranoia that exploded in my brain every time I heard them get up and walk around anywhere within ten feet of me wasn't fun. But I drew! And it was terrible because I haven't drawn in years! But I didn't start cursing and throwing a fit!

I am so proud.

Seven days until Moving Day D: Our apartment has garnered the nicknames "Boxpocalypse" and "Boxopolis". I like Boxopolis better since there are still signs of life, peeking from around the corners of all our boxed-up crap.

Now that we're this close to the end, I think the three of us are checked out mentally. We've cleaned, packed, and moved shit around, but none of us have cooked or done anything personally productive for days. I am even having trouble leaving the apartment for more than the two hours it takes to go to the gym and back. Last minute clinginess, I guess? :(

*sigh*

Tomorrow, dim sum. Tonight, sleep.

_{and the captain, oh, he is never denied}
