catching up…

I haven’t blogged in forever, so I thought I’d catch up in a giant random post. Oh and I changed the layout because Sophia (as Brooke) is too cute in her sexy devil costume and the photo needed to be utilized. ;)

As most of you know, my dad passed away a couple of weeks ago. We weren’t close and I hadn’t seen him in 10 years so being there at the very end was kind of odd, but I’m so glad I went to see him and had a chance to talk with him briefly. We didn’t get to say all the things we wanted to say, but we said enough and there was peace for both of us. I still haven’t cried over it, but I will one day.

I turned 34 earlier this week. It was an OK birthday other than Aidan being sick and us not getting to cook dinner and stuff like we’d planned. I didn’t want a germy birthday dinner and certainly didn’t want to catch the bug he had. We’ll probably bake a cake or something this weekend, just so we can celebrate properly.

As I’ve plugged several times already, dashmihok.com and sophiabushphotos.com are now online if anyone wants to affiliate. I’ve got spots open for family, top and regular affies. Just email me through either of the sites and I’ll be happy to add you. :)

somewhere a rainbow is weeping

I just thought I’d toss in a random post in the midst of all of my Chuck-spams, which have been super fun to post. Speaking of Chuck, I really missed him on Gossip Girl last night. I prefer Chuck-filled episodes to Chuck-less episodes. Blair looked really pretty last night though and I typically can’t stand her unless she’s in a scene with Chuck in some capacity.

Who else squealed with delight at the new Twilight teaser trailer? Rob looks and sounds amazing. And he and Kristen look awesome together. I’m so excited about the movie!!!

I picked up The Vampire Diaries (Vol. 1 – The Awakening and The Struggle; Vol. 2 – The Fury and Dark Reunion) over the weekend and started reading the first story last night and so far I am enjoying it. Once I finish these books, I’ll shift my focus back to City of Ashes.

Since I’ve been depressed for a while and reading practically non-stop, I’ve found that I haven’t really felt like working on my sites much, which I don’t consider to be a bad thing. I’ve put both Charlie and Rebecca on hold for the time being, and I’m thinking of closing my ITC screencap/scan gallery and just having zip files available of caps instead. Not that many people visit the gallery anyway and after the last round of upgrades due to hackers (OMG how they suck arse), the less coppermines to upgrade, the better.

I’ve moved all of my icons here and have added a few new ones (Asia x1, Heather x1, Mia x 5, Samaire x1 and Broken English x2) if anyone is interested. I will also have some Chuck ones available soon.

I think that’s all the randomness I have for now. More Chuck-spams to be added tonight. :D
