   I love you.

Sweets for my Sweeties.


Thanks for all the well wishes. I am still in the middle of a bad flare up of my arthritis but I MUST tell everyone what is going on in my oh-so-exciting life. I was feeling really REALLY down. When I have a bad flare up it is really hard for me to not get depressed. I also went rounds with a close friend during this time too. I was pretty much feeling lower than low. Things got all worked out with my friend and that is all fine now. But things were not all bad while I have been away!

I got an email today from Arthritis Today which is a magazine for people with...surprise, surprise...arthritis. It also covers some other autoimmune diseases. Anyway, I wrote a query for them in hopes they would pick up my story. The email said they want to use my story in the magazine, the exact words were: "I am interested in using your story in a "survivor" story. We want to give hope and encouragent through the story." Doesn't that just rock! They have a super tight deadline so hopefully it will make it into the magazines. ^_^

There is also the Nifty-Fifty on the OB. I made the list! I was just happy being nominated and I actually made the list. I also think that it totally rocks that the Otaku Lounge made the list too. The final list was amazing. It is really cool to see what made it. Everyone must go check out the list. It makes me happy to see the forum I mod for make the list. A few of my nominations made the list too. That is so cool. Shy and crew did a great job with that community function. I can't wait to see what is going to be next!

I also have been watching, re-watching and watching some more Saiyuki: Requiem. I love Saiyuki. I is kinda sad that this is the last Saiyuki that ADV has. I hope Gunlock and Reload are going to be good. It's kinda weird since I am so use to hearing the English VA's voices and now they are going to change. I guess I will just stick to the original seiyuu voices if I don't like the new VA's. Speaking of Saiyuki...

Let's have a bishie break!

Goku looks happy for me!


I am a bit lost as to what question to ask you. I know, do you know someone that reminds you of an anime character?

This is actually kinda funny. At times John reminds me of a male version of Osaka from Azumanga Daioh. He will come up with the strangest things to talk about and he can't float. Remember the episode of Azumanga Daioh when Osaka is asking about what the secret to floating is...well, John is the exact same way. He can swim, but if he stops moving he sinks. I, on the other hand can float forever. Needless to say John's favorite character is Osaka. I think it is because they can relate. >_<;;

Your Bizarre and Unusual Holiday reminder for February 7th are "Wave All Your Fingers at Your Neighbor Day" and "Send a Card to a Friend Day"! Well, it is much better to wave all your fingers at your neighbors than just one finger!

Well, I am going to get some rest and take more pain meds. I hope you are all doing well and your week is off to a great start. I love you all and will visit with you soon. Laters everyone! ^_^
