An Update, and Excuses

I keep putting off updating because I’d have to explain what i’ve been doing instead. And while that really is an easy answer (ATTEMPTING TO BUY A HOUSE), I don’t feel like giving the details. So, I’m going to stop explaining why I disappear for periodic long stretches of time, and I’m just going to switch to updating whatever whenever.

Have some bullet points.

-I’ve been sucked into pinterest. You can follow me if you want. I started with fairly normal boards and have now de-evolved into brilliantly named boards like “Fuck Off” which is lovingly dedicated to thinspiration crap and stupid sayings that make me want to light things on fire. Follow me or leave me a comment with your link if you want me to check your boards out if I’m not following you already. It has my real name on it, but ignore that please.

I’d like to point out that with the addition of pinterest, i now have a truly obscene number of blog-type places. My heart belongs here, of course, because I’ve had it for a million years.
-Silverspiral.net
-livejournal
-tumblr
-facebook (i barely check this. it frustrates the crap out of my husband that he has to tell me he’s posted something)
-pinterest
-and a money blog floating around somewhere that hasn’t been updated since North Carolina. When we moved TO North Carolina, that is.

The link to the lj is in the sidebar, if you REALLY want to check it out, but it’s all fandom stuff. The tumblr I don’t really give out, as it’s Glee, Glee, Glee, Harry Potter, and periodic gay porn. And that weirds some people out for some reason.

-I thought briefly of letting SilverSpiral.net die when hostmonster and godaddy both wanted money from me at the same time. Money we shouldn’t have been spending then, as we’re still trying to balance to past costs of moving and being able to afford food and toilet paper in the future, but ultimately, I just couldn’t let it go. I’m very attached. Silverspiral has existed in some form or another for over 12 years, and I just…it’s my baby. Even when I’m not updating at all like I should.

-The woman who cut my hair yesterday mistook my directions on my dry hair (“I want it at my chin”) to be the directions for where to cut it on my wet hair (“I want it at my chin”), so my hair is a good inch and a half shorter than what I wanted and am used to. It probably wouldn’t be that huge of a deal, but my hair is wavy, and the ends kick up, so I currently have the shortest layer that keeps falling in my face. And before you tell me to use a clip, i need you to know that MY HAIR SCOFFS AT CLIPS. It’s back in a headband, and I’m wondering if I should bother to go complain, because it’s not like it looks bad, it’s just in my face more than I like.

And by more than I like, I mean I shrieked in irritation at least twice yesterday when I was trying to do something and my hair fell forward.

Then again, what would they do? They can’t make it LONGER.

-I’m hungry, and I’m bored of most breakfast foods. I made Star Wars pancakes the other day, and that was fun, but I want something to bake. This is a problem, because I don’t want to clean the kitchen and admit defeat to Brandus’ current “forgetting” to empty and refill the dishwasher. Regardless, food suggestions welcome.
