  • New Couch Delivered Today!

    G and I have been saving up for a few new things for our living room. It’s taken us a few months to get the money together, but most of it came from EQ2 and selling off our characters and such. The first of our purchases arrives today and I can’t wait! A brand new couch from Rooms to Go. Here is a picture of what it is supposed to look like: The cushions are Microfiber plush, which is usually super soft. I hope it’s as nice as it looks to be in the pictures. We’ll see. They are supposed…

  • Ramblings

    Well, last night’s dreams were pretty intense. Sometime around 6:30 this morning, I had a very vivid dream about a tornado. The scene was very “down on the farm” with cornfields and a barn. G and I were there and were heading out on a date, of course not realizing at first that the weather was bad. As we walked towards his car, the wind picked up and the sky darkened. G casually made a comment about it being “tornado weather” when I looked towards the horizon and there they were. Twin tornadoes. In my dream, the tornadoes were black,…

  • Nightmares Again

    You would think that at some point, an adult would grow out of nightmares. I mean, aren’t I supposed to be of age to help a child through the night? Or maybe you don’t stop having nightmares until you actually have a child to pass them on to. There’s a scary thought. I certainly don’t want to pass this down to a defenseless child. I hate nightmares. I kept waking up throughout the night, the back of my hair sweaty even though the room was cool. No matter how I positioned my body, I could not get comfortable, and when…

  • Baghdad Bomb

    **Update on this is that I received an email from L and he is doing fine. He worked with one of the guys who died, Steve, and says that he was a great person who will be missed.** I read this story on CNN this morning and my heart stopped for a moment. Specifically when I read this part: The embassy official said the American civilians include “a direct hire civilian employee of the Department of State and a Department of Defense civilian employee.” My ex-boyfriend L is an American civilian working at the Embassy there. I am not sure…

  • MyLot

    So I have been searching around the net, looking for different ways to make money online. I haven’t really found anything amazing, but last week I did find something interesting. MyLot. It’s basically a forum for discussion about anything you can imagine. One person just posts a question or starts a discussion and others from the community respond or give advice. The cool thing about it is that you get paid to post. Okay, so it’s not a million dollar money maker, but you can make a few cents every time you post, which adds up over time. I have…

  • Everquest 2

    I have mentioned several times before that G and I have been playing Everquest 2 for a few years. It’s an MMO with its own economy and rules and adventures. I honestly never thought I would be the type of person who would enjoy playing a game online, but the truth is, it’s very addictive. My ex-husband J is the one who first introduced me to Everquest, the original one, which we played for about a year. Then, when Everquest 2 came out almost 4 years ago, I started playing it almost right away. Over the years, I met a…
