I think since it is summer that it is about time I start working on photography again- or at least art in general. I've been going through a dry spot where I'm sick of editing pictures of myself- including ones taken from my other photographer >.< Which I have tons of. Problem is, between work and raiding. I'm hardly finding any time. We shall see- we shall see.

Other than that- WoW has been wonderful to me. Raiding is a blast and I'm really enjoying life. Work is getting a bit tedious though- I'm not as happy with it as I once was. There are a lot of things happening that are wrong and also getting paid less for doing more than my job description is really wearing me out. My beautiful cousin had great news for me and I'm very very happy for her. A few other of my friends have been getting married, having kids. It seems like the world is just moving without me! That's alright though- kinda my nature to just chill

I moved- that's new. But not really. I just haven't been keeping up added to the fact that my usb to hook my camera up to the computer grew legs and walked off... o.O So I had to spend precious money (2 days of food worth) to buy a new one since my art is more important to me

Now to the more personal stuff that we all love-

Manda's baby shower saturday, I'm all psyched for it because I love the girl, then a nice dinner with a shit load of republicans -_-;

Recent news on myself, took in a kitty named Chevy, I'm sure there will pictures of him up as soon as I get more batteries for my camera, but he's my friend Erin's cat that we rescued from her horrid ex along with her other cat Guido that ~eyes-of-green is graciously taking care of (thank you thank you thank you ma'am we love you!) Chevy is absolutely adorable soooo it'll be exciting to get some pictures of him.

My Grandfather had a mild stroke and is in the hospital. Doctors have also found a rather large bump/growth on his neck that they are doing tests on, cross our fingers that it isn't cancer, don't need him going through treatment again or the pain of it. As of the moment my grandmother is doing alright. Family wise, brother is just as crazy as ever and planning on moving down to Florida for the remainder of the winter.

Life has mellowed out some minus the recent upset with my grandfather. So all in all I'm doing pretty fine, just hectic as always though.

<3
~Aly~

So I've been extremely stressed lately, so much so I'm having health issues. Yes I said it, health issues.... men I'd turn away not and just stop reading because this is where it gets a little more female. I've been stressed enough that it's affected my period. I'm actually very concerned because I didn't think I was that stressed, I knew I was stressed because I was eating more, kinda staring off into space more and what not. Not wanting to play WoW or do anything for that matter. In the 7 years of having "the curse" I have never once had a light month, nor have I ever missed one. So, what is happening now is really worrying me. Really all I need is support, less stress (this stress has to do with school, work, money/bank, family, friends, the list tends to go on...) so, in total... be nice? lol.

So today for the most part was crap. Dealing with all the shit I'm dealing with is kinda a drag then trying to be happy on top of it. Well Adam felt bad so he took me out to dinner at TGI Friday's. While we were there I got a call from my father... conversation went something like this
me- hi dad
dad- hi aly
me- whats up?
dad- I got something in the mail here saying it's from uw waukesha
me- oh? and?
dad- I didn't open it! Are you kidding me, you yelled at your mother the last time she opened your mail.
me- oh yeah... ummm well I'll be there tomorrow... so yeah. I'll open it then.
dad- I'm not going to be home till late tomorrow
me- mom said you were going to be home at six so we could have my "life discussion" (previous conversation about life discussion ended up in my mother being pissed off at me and wanting to send me to a psychiatrist because she was flipping out about insurance if I didn't get into school this semester and was put on waiting list so I said I'd postpone my suicide attempt till next semester, she took me seriously, my bad...)
dad- ummmm well I'm not going to be, gun training in milwaukee from 8 to 8 tomorrow... I get to sleep in.
me- woo hoo, ok...
dad- can I open it...
me- you really want to open it?
dad- I wanna know...
me- I really don't bad enough day as it is.
dad- where are you at?
me- friday's with adam...
dad- I think I might be able to read it without opening it if I hold it up to the light correctly... (can hear him rustling about trying to read it by holding it up to the light) (brothers voice in the background asking what the hell he's doing, my father explaining then a fight on if my brother could talk to me on the phone or not- ended up my father won, my father misses me <3) nope can't read it... can I open it?
me- I really don't want to know, if it's bad news it will make this day so much worse
dad- but if it's good?
me- uhh i don't know
dad- can I open it...??????
me- if you really want to I guess.
dad- (can hear him ripping open the letter) what the fuck is this shit....
me- groan... I didn't get in did i?
dad- no you did, but this letter is ridiculously stupid! I mean it makes no sense... (rambling on)
me- so I got in?
dad- uh yeah?
me- oh!


the remainder of the night I was a happy lark.... so.... just so everyone knows... going to school this semester! wOOt!
