Some Random Nez

So it's midnight. Am I in bed? No!

Should I be? Hells Yes!

It finally got down to a comfortable temperature in here! I can't go to bed now! It would be a waste of all this wonderfully cool air!


On a completely unrelated note:
I need to get me some curtains picked out by this weekend. Morgs? Oreo? Up for a shopping adventure?

On another unrelated note:
Ram, if you're reading this, I'll give you some clues:
We've been drunk together before.
I was at your housewarming party.
Wrestling is full of gay (especially Batista!)

Why I believe it's time for some other unrelated (and random) stuff!

• I need a vacation. Anyone for Florida? Alright then, how about the Fringe?
• Everyone should, in the near future, lay eyes upon my sexy-ass boyfriend! Rowr!!
• On Saturday, my month without chocolate will be up!
• Candy is good, but it's no substitute.
• My inner nerd is getting all excited. Nerdstock is coming!

Well, it's very late and I grow weary.

Thank you for tolerating my thoughts.

Addictionz & Insightz

I get addicted easily. Sometimes too easily.

I open with this statemant because it's almost 5 am, and I'm not tired. Why? Because I've been up surfing the internet, reading Ranma 1/2 fanfics. I'm practically giddy.

I've been sitting for hours with my laptop on my stomach, face glued to the screen, reading stories. My hair is in two messy pigtails on the very top of my head, I've got the comfy PJ's on and I've been munching on Goldfish crackers. I could keep going; I'm only stopping because it's almost 5 am and I think I should get to bed before my alarm goes off. But I had to write for a little while, until the tired sets in.

I'm hooked. Line and sinker included. This stuff is amazing! I get so involved with the characters and all the story lines that I can't help myself! ScottyBomb showed me a few episodes that he had, and a while back I picked up the first book, but it wasn't a huge deal. Lately, I've been getting more into it. I'm devouring the books as fast as I can pick them up (Murphy's Law has been dictating that the one I need will be the one they don't have at the bookstore I happen to be at, of course), and who knows how many DVDs I'd own if the funding wasn't so restrictive. And I found some beautiful fanfics with the greatest stories and some beautiful writing...

I'm rambling. Sorry.

Let me sum up:

I'm highly addicted to Ranma 1/2. Be warned, I will be more than happy to engage in discussion about this topic.


************************************************
New subject.

I finally had dinner with Mel Thursday evening. We don't see each other very often so this was a real treat and an amazing feat of scheduling (trust me).

Due to the not-seeing-each-other-very-often factor we ended up talking until quite late. About almost everthing that had to do with either of our lives.

I find it interesting to look at things with a Now and Then perspective. I mean, we grew up together; there's hardly a childhood memory of mine that she's not a part of. It's just interesting to see where she is now and where I am now and just how far apart we really are. I just bought a home and have a full-time job, she's looking to go back to school again and is living with her parents again. I'm the odd artsy one, she's the straight-laced education major. I marvel that we still have anything in common to talk about.

But we somehow managed to talk for hours. Lots of it was about where she is in life and how she got there. There is one thing I want to write about, because it really made a lot of sense to me in terms of life and relationships, and I want to remember it.

She was sat down at one point by a friend one night and was given a scenario:

A relationship is a partnership, two equal parts. What are you going to bring to that partnership to make it work and/or to attract a partner?

At the time, she wasn't very self sufficent (didn't really cook, didn't really clean, wasn't in control of all of her finances, stuff like that), and she said that this was a real turning point for her. She did someday want to settle down and maybe have a family, but she hadn't taken any steps to make that happen.

We talked about what it was like to become independent from Mom and Dad. How some people acted like rent was the only thing you had to pay for when you moved out, and how she and I knew just how far from the truth that was. We talked about how important it was to be self-sufficent. I think she put it something like this:

If you have two people that can each look after themselves, they will be excellent for looking after each other.

It ties right in with that whole relationship/partnership thing.

Lots of this was just preaching to the choir; I've been on my own for quite a few years now. I know what it's like to have to pay for everything yourself and do everything yourself.

She's always had a good head on her shoulders (well, mostly), and from the sounds of things, she's on her way to being right where she thinks she needs to be. And I say "Good for Her!"

Alright. It's now 5:50 am. The tired has set in and I'm going to bed before I stop making sense altogether.

I think I shall sleep in today. ;)

Can't Handle All the Heatz

It's bloody hot in here.

I'm seriously considering taking some ice to bed with me. Also, all this humidity is making my hair HUGE!

Morgs, you need to come home so we can go cool off by walking in the fountains. Also, we need to take Oreo with us next time.

I think the time has come for a break. I need a change of pace. Something slower. Thank goodness my holidays are coming up. Some days it's just so hard to get up. (That might have something to do with my lack of going to bed at a decent hour, but who knows?)

And I'm getting damn tired of being broke.

Damn, it's hot in here. Apparently having the windows open is not helping. I need to get me a fan or something.

Well, on the upside, I've finally seen all of Ranma 1/2 Season 1. Good for me.

That strawberry ice cream in my freezer can't even save me now. I'm uncomfortably hot.

Alright, enough complaining about the heat. I'm going to change into something less warm and try to get some sleep!

Thanks for listening to my random ramblings!

Death by Chocolatz!

So I decide to give up chocolate in June; fine.

I chose June because it has no major chocolate associated holidays in it (Halloween, Easter, Christmas, etc).

So where do my friends suggest for dessert?


Death by Chocolate.


On the upside, the fruity gelato was most satisfying.


Also, Happy Hell Day to those looking closely at their calendars.

#31 - Nez is a glutton for punishment

I've decided that June is the month to cross off #31 - Give up chocolate for one month.

What the hell was I thinking?!?!?!

I give myself 2 weeks before the withdrawl drives me mad.
