For those who haven’t noticed yet, I’ve put up the new layout! This time I decided to use my favourite woman on Earth, Emilie Autumn. She’s been a big source of inspiration in my life lately, and the image was too beautiful to resist. I’m also working on adding some pages to the Goodies page, as well as updating and changing around the personal content. Somethings are outdated and need some freshening up. Also, I want to plug In Obscuro. Nela’s tutorials are excellent, and have helped me out a lot. Not to mention, her artwork is incredibly beautiful.

Things have been going well lately. Work has been as hectic as ever, thanks to the management switching over, half the crew not showing up to work and the freight issues we’re having. Thankfully, I’ve been able to relax my sore muscles the last couple of days and actually take a moment to breathe. I was feeling energetic this morning, so David and I went shopping. We ended up popping into the Magic card store (he bought some new duel decks for himself), the book store (I bought volumes four, five and six of Death Note by Tsugumi Ohba, Witchling by Yasmine Galenorn and the new issue of Tattoos for Women) and the Hobbit House (I bought Cunningham’s Book of Shadows by Scott Cunningham). After that, we headed to Trattoria’s for lunch, which is a cute little pasta shop a couple blocks from our house. I’m officially addicted to their citrus Italian soda. So good! After lunch, we stopped by Field’s, and I bought these cute little black capri pants with zippers on the sides, a black and red top, and a new black and purple bra. A lot of their clothes were on clearance, so it was a pretty good deal. Bargains = awesome.

It was really nice for David and I to spend the day together. We never really get to, because of our conflicted schedules. Not to mention, we’ve been having a rough time because of the infidelity incident before my birthday. I’m still having a hard time with trust, and believing he is where he says he is (when he told me the other night that he’d gone to Kyle’s and Alexis was there – my eyes just narrowed and I became hostile), but today it felt like old times. It’s was really nice, and I hope as things slowly get better, we’ll have more moments like the ones we had today. Of course it will never be like it was, but I’m hoping we can get close.

I get to start my new birth control on Sunday. I’m not very excited about this. The YAZ completely messed with my system, and aggravated my depression something fierce, so here’s to hoping that this is the last one I have to try and the disasters of before won’t happen again. I hate having a fickle body and fickle organ systems… it made it difficult for antidepressants and now it’s being difficult for birth control. Pain in my ass.

Well, I’m going to wrap this up for now. I think I’m going to take a bit of a break and watch Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs before getting back to work on the site.
