*I'm gonna try to start linking to real life entries at the start of the 356 meme or something. I suppose I could just have 2 copies of the same entry over here. Anyways, for those only following me here, here's links to the DW copy of rl stuff you may have missed:

*Last week
-this is mostly some stuff about progress on the house & Welcome to Rockville Music Fest.

*The preceding week
-mostly house stuff & a weekend at the beach w/ the folks. Plus lots of Misc.

& finally

*and the one before that
-Easter, all the stuff leading up to it, stuff w/ friends, etc
*Welcome, new friends from the recent memes!

*My family & C's went down to the beach for New Year's. We hit some awesome restaurants & mostly lazed about. C & I hit the used book store at the pier and grabbed a few things. C & my aunt also gave me a late Christmas gift they didn't get wrapped by Christmas. TK had us watch a bunch of OUAT S1 & we all watched Downton Abbey S5 to refresh before the new season. I also finished The Book Thief (which was REALLY good, even better than the movie) & started Gillian Anderson's book, which has been an easy & enjoyable read thus far.
Pretty nice weekend, though the house starts feeling too small once you have 8 people in it.
Daddy on the other hand spent the trip sick, and, mom insisted he go to urgent care when we got home Sunday (Daddy & I have historically been very against going to the dr because of time & money but mom was very convincing). As expected: stomach bug. He'll be fine.

*Looks like I've got to run Chloe (the beagle) to the vet friday since she's been limping for going on 4 weeks now. They said I had to drop her off so they could "squeeze her in whenever" and they would "keep her till the end of the workday for me". I had to nix that last bit. She's people shy & if I leave her there all day, I'll never get her in a car again. So, I'm going to have to make them call me the second she's done & keep her with me at the office until the end of the workday, unless they release her by lunch, in which case I'll take her home. :/

*And my brother texted me to say that Regan & Susie (labs) teamed up to chew off Susie's collar, so I have to fuss at dogs when I get home & I get to buy another. (I never used to put collars on them, but I had them on for deer season & they seemed to have gotten used to them so we decided to roll w/ it).

*My (digital) Welcome to Rockville tickets came in today!

*Downton Abbey: 6x01
... )

*iZombie: 2x09
... )

*Agents of Shield: 3x10

*Our out of town company left this morning. :) Its always nice to have them but after a couple days I'm ready for things to go back to normal.

*Also, have another friending meme.

I've been super busy with work, church & social things recently. And, tbh, lots of social interaction leaves me exhausted so I've been sleeping instead of catching up on things, but I'm getting there. Actually have to drive to 2 different counties after lunch and then we have choir practice tonight.

Con-bound at noon on Friday. Long drive up & back so: any (free) podcasts you can recommend for listening to on the drive? (Besides Nightvale. I'm already on that bandwagon).

Hope you're all well.

*Hope everyone had a nice Easter/Passover/weekend!

*Haven't had a chance to watch but about half of the last SHIELD ep, and looks like we may be bolting lunch and running out of town to do some cryouts, so I probably can't watch tonight's ep live...and by the looks of that promo, I'm not as disappointed as I could be.

*Got a bachelorette party this weekend and I'm already tired. Oddly, the bride's mother is coming (which is only odd b/c she's a mom. She actually really likes to have a good time. But we're using the family beach house (my parents, dad's sister & her hubby, and dad's brother & his wife split it 3 ways) so I've got to keep an eye on the house as Daddy decided not to charge us. I'm kinda starting to feel like the chaperone. It also doesn't hurt that out of the people invited (14, including me) I only know half of them and only like half of the half. :/

*DISHNet capped out over the weekend, so I can look forward to massively slow internet speeds till the 20th.

*Real post to come later...sometime.
*Well, last night I planned to watch AoS or The Dovekeepers (because ladies) live and then catch up on the finale of The Musketeers. We had lighting storms all around our part of the state. The Dish went out on ABC so I figured that mean Dovekeepers. Then the Dish went out on everything but Food Network. So we switched to the analog (which only gets CBS & PBS) to continue watching Dovekeepers...then the power went out so no anything except playing games on my tablet in the dark till I got sleepy. Oh well, plenty to watch tonight then.

*Apparently, my Dad is so in love with my little Regan (the black lab) that he apparently declared to mom the other night about 1 am that he was "concerned for Regan's mental health when Marg moves out in a couple years because she won't know where to live & she'll miss me."..the thing to keep in mind is the house I'm fixing is on family property...maybe half a mile from my parents house.


*I know the title of this entry is a mess up of a common quote. The above is a statement made by the mom of one of my best friends...a woman who also greeted us at the door with generic anime character boxers on the outside of her clothes thinking that we were her husband. lol

Just the usual summer "I'm not dead" post.

I'll try and update soon.
Just a few general notes:
(1) Finished up year 2 of law school. Just one more left.
(2) Managed to get 2 As this semester.
(3) Interning @ the DA's office Mon-Wed this summer, and I'll be at my parent's office Thurs & Fri since their secretary is on maternity(/may not come back).
(4) Still looking for one of good hunting-stock, but Daddy has agreed I can have a lab puppy as long as he can duck hunt with it.
Wrapped up my first year of law school and it's amazing to finally be done!

I'm going to a wedding tomorrow and a baccalaureate service on Sunday. I'll try to make a post of some substance Monday.

1) Only one grade back so far. I got my Torts grade back (aka hardest class) & I got a B+!!! :D

2) School starts back on Tuesday & it's soon to be time for my usual weekend-at-home hiatus.

Really not wanting to start back, but oh well, I'll have net 24/7 again at least. lol. Glass hald full.

Anyways, I really hope & plan to keep this more up to date this next semester, but it's possible I won't really be on till spring break.

Even if I do update here more frequently this next semester, I'll still be more likely to be found at tumblr and at
Twitter on a more regular basis.

Wish me luck guys! One more semester & I will have made it through my first year of law school

Good luck surviving the holiday, f-list!!!

1)The meme continues:
# Day 04 - The pairing with the most chemistry? Darcy/Elizabeth. (close seconds being Zutara, Dean/Cas, Sawyer/Kate)

2) Welcome to anyone from the recent friending meme! I have a twitter as well if anyone wants to follow me there too. Just let me know

3) Moving back to school tomorrow. Send prayers/luck/good vibes. I'll need it....especially since my friends decided we needed to live on the third floor and moving stuff up flights of stairs in south Georgia heat....not a good idea.

4) Looking at my semester, I may be able to beta fics again for a while. Drop me a note if you need a beta. Just no epic-length fics please. Senior year & all that.

5) Also, due to fandomsecrets, I've been rewatching some of the old Beast Wars episodes. Anyone (besides Lisa) ever watch that? It's actually really well-written, dark and has awesome characters....and I kinda realized Dinobot had been one of my childhood idols. What does that say about a person? I kind of want to squee over characters and plot points now. :/

Been a while since I made an update of some substance, soooo....

1) Finished the Kurosagi anime with Kyo. It was totally cracktastic, but still fun. I also caught up with the recent manga chapters. OMG! NEED MORE!

2) Made a B+/A- on my first Constitutional History test. Yeah, wacky grading scale, but I'm happy.

3) SNOW EVENING )

4) Had a great day chatting w/ Erica & now Collin is spending the night w/ me so she doesn't have to drive home. Yay!

5) Get to write a paper for my crazy American Lit prof. Thank God it's only 3-4 pages.

6) Managed to get my first crush on a guy in class in YEARS....and he's taken. Oh well, at least I know that I can still be attracted to real guys. That's a good thing.

7) Last 2 White Collar eps: SO GOOD! And the one about the charity had some ADORABLE moments.

8) Mom apparently got me the dvd of Bram Stoker's Dracula as a Hallmark Day gift. Odd gift choice considering the holiday, still AWESOME.

Look at me, actually having a good couple days. :D
Starting to get sleepy now. May actually go to bed at a reasonable hour. Throat's getting sore, but it was totally worth it.

Hope you're all doing well.
1)My Questions from Sandwich14 )

2) Used the money mom gave me for my birthday to buy myself Public Enemies & Star Trek. Good use of the money methinks.
2a) Am I really that weird for not celebrating my b-day? I'm just happy to be able to by alcohol. :3

3) Back at school. Start class at 10:00 tomorrow, but since it’s just Aerobics I just have to get up, throw some clothes on and go. I also have American Lit 2 with a lady that's supposed to be insane (but I have to take it) and Feminist Thought (i need to take up poli sci hours. Luckily, my friend said the prof is good)
Luckily Tuesday should be a be a better class day.

4) Watched Angels & Demons over the weekend. I thought it was okay and I liked it better than Da Vinci Code. Also watched Revenge of the Fallen. Did not like it as well as the first (admittedly I was high on pain pills when I saw the 1st & refuse to see it again for fear of disappointment). It seemed to have less plot/character development than the first (and not nearly enough Bumblebee). Anyone else agree?
1) Survived trip #2. Everyone displayed good behaviour. We stopped by the old Macon mall & I got 3 pairs of jeans (1 was ½ off!), 1 long-sleeved shirt (OMG! I bought long sleeves), & a Cobra Starship tee. And I managed to get back in time for a haircut. Successful day!

2) My grandma has me coming to her house tonight to “pick something up”. I assume it’s b-day stuff, but she’s the kind of person who’ll suck me in forever. :(
2a) Is it horrible that I have this couple at church who I’ve adopted as my grandparents and when I’m at college I miss them way more than my actual grandparents (save the one who died 2 Thanksgivings ago)?

3) Renting Transformers 2 this weekend. :D

4) Also, thanks to [Bad username or site: “fandomsecrets” @ livejournal.com] I’ve pushed Watson/Holmes/Adler to the side in place of Watson/Holmes/Adler/Mary. I mean, the ship name is WHAM. Lol. And I may be, uh, dragged to see Holmes again once I return to school . :D

5) Going back to school Sunday. Woohoo. *sarcasm* Should be there 5ish. And on the net w/n a couple hours. So I shall soon have more constant net access! Woohoo! *not sarcasm*

6) Thus far taking my usual 16 hours of classes. No class on Friday at the moment!
Current Schedule is:

M&W:
10:00 am-Aerobics (may take an 11 am if I can)
2:00 pm-Feminist Thought (Ew. But I need the poli sci credits)
3:30 pm-American Lit 2 (this MAY be dropped, since the prof has been said to suck, but I need to be able to take another lit in place thereof & not ditch my friend in the class)

T&T:
9:30 am-Southern Politics
2:00 pm-Milton
3:30 pm-US Const. History

7) Anyone bedsides me & maybe Aki going to MomoCon this year? Just curious.

8) Give me a character and I will name: 1) my OTP for them; 2) the runner-up pairing; 3) honorable mentions; 4) crack pairings; 5) a ship that everyone seems to like, but I don't.

So Avenue Q is going to be in Savannah tomorrow (45 min from my school). Everyone's going for my friend's birthday, but I have to miss it b/c I'm off to Atlanta for X-mas shopping/eat good food. (that second one is my fav part). Don't get me wrong, I like Atlanta trips, but timing clearly sucks. :(


Also, got to finish 3 books, and 3 papers and 1 test before finals...which are 2 weeks after Thanksgiving week. :( Pray for me!!!!

1) Sorry I wasn’t on much yesterday. I was actually quite busy at work. I had to type a bunch and then go pull deed records in a different county.

2)I have no more 07-Ghost eps to watch. I want more. Particularly more of this  )

Oh well, I think I may try to catch up on Bleach. Kinda daunting though. I stopped watching them steady when I got bogged down in the filler arc. I’ve watched some random eps ahead because I like Grimmjow so I’d still know what was going on, but it’ll take a while to catch up.

3) Okay. I promised kitten pics so here’s some. (Along w/ a bit of puppy, and the pond…b/c it’s pretty)Click to see kitties! )

4)And I'm about to go to the beach for one last trip before school! I'll be back Monday. Have a great weekend all.
Soon to go grab an early lunch so me & fav cousin can eat before taking WT for his eye surgery. Send us all the luck you can spare. Maybe since me & her are his favorite ppl(besides himself), he'll behave. *crosses-fingers*

On a lighter note: Kitty moved her kittens up beside the front porch so I finally saw them. One is mostly gray and striped, the other is almost totally white w/ some gray. Very cute and fluffy. And young enough that there is hope to domesticate. Yay!

Sorry I'm a bit behind, and am about to buzz off again. Rl stuffs. So no time to make this all html pretty.
Happiness meme Day 6
1.Found the missing file. B/c I am skilled.
2.Awesome jeongdao art . :D
3.We bought ear mite meds and the dogs didn’t complain too much when we administered them
4.It didn’t take 8 million tries to get the closing package to print.
5.Ran into a HS friend.
6.Hung at my fav cousin’s.
7.Terry McGinnis

Day 7
1.We managed to finish said closing by lunch!
2.I didn’t run this morning. I slept instead. :D
3.Five dollar; five dollar; five dollar footlonggggg!
4.Terry again.

2)Hey Newbs! Welcome to my lj!

3)So, I was on Yahoo this morning and under Top 10 popular searches was TwiCon. Yeah, it’s just what you think it is. http://www.twicon.org/home.html Does this not look terrifying? And I don’t even hate Twilight. Rathbone’s attending though; some Twitard/Avatard needs to go & asked him what happened to “getting a tan” for the part of Sokka.

4) http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/movie-talk-depp-burton-dark-shadows.html I’ve never watched Dark Shadows, but my Mom & her secretary said this should be good. (Kinda a duh though. Burton + Depp, it’ll at least be worth seeing once.)

5)We gave all the dogs ear mite stuff without too much complaint, except from Penny, but as good a momma-dog as she is, she’s REALLY high-strung (You’d be too if you got shot). Honey seemed a little off this morning though, not in pain or anything, just not as Honey.

6) Meme I snagged from Elle )

Yeah, this was done in Word when I was bored and I basically just pasted it cuz I'm in a hurry. Sorry for lack of coding.
1) Happiness meme Day 5
1. Finally joined ontd_startrek. :D
2. Mom’s finally done w/ the cases that were stressing her.
3. Dad’s going to Kroger. (This is great b/c Harvey’s sucks)
4. Going out to dinner, and my town’s only non-fast food, non-foreign restaurant is GOOD. (And not pricey) Even better, my brother has martial arts prac then
5. Dad found Kitty's kittens out by the pump house. There's just 2 apparently. (see item 5)

2) Honey is having ear issues again. (She’s quite prone to ear infections) Her ears seem to be bothering her, but she doesn’t yelp when I touch them. (She usually does when she has one). I’m concerned that it may be ear mites. Anyone have any experience w/ pets getting them? If it’s an ear infection, she tends to get over it, but if its ear mites I need to go get meds and treat all the dogs.
And I know the vet could tell me if she had them, but 1) that costs money 2)if she didn’t have them they’d just charge us for the consult 3)She’s filthy 4)my dogs don’t do leashes, collars, buildings or cars….or baths….wow, that sounds bad.

3)Backing off my coffee intake prior to going back to school is no fun. It’s hard to only drink one cup when the coffee still in the pot smells good. (I’m not shooting for one cup a day though. Trying to cut down from 5 a day to 3. And then down to 2)

4)Lol. Dad is leading the church service Sunday in the preacher’s absence. This means me and my cousin can make faces at him and he can’t do a thing about it. (Aren’t we mature? He’d do the same thing to us)
The message, however, will be given by a wonderful lady who was a favorite teacher of mine back in middle school. She lost her baby when her father(the woman’s, not the baby’s) didn’t know the baby was behind his truck and backed over her. The family did manage to pull through with God’s help. This was years ago, but I still think the message will probably an emotional one.

5) Sadly we're definatly going to have to get rid of the kittens in order to not have a repeat of our last massive cat invasion. Note: At least 50 of them running around the property, only 5 of which would let you touch them, and only another 5 would allow you to get w/n 5 ft of them.
We've decided to inact a one cat at a time plan. Still does this mean I won't seek out said kittens and name them? Not at all. :D

6)Meme times! )
Happiness Meme Day 2
1. I'm going to see HP tonight!
2. I ran into my friend I haven't seen in months.
3. I left my keys at home, but Dad had spares.
4. Dad went to the awesome meat market of non-greasy sausage & inch-thick pork chops.
5. We finally managed to buy a new coffee pot that works. :D
6. All my veoh downloads actually worked okay.
7. I got some music off itunes via gift card from Mom.
8. Dad was in an oddly good mood at work today. (He's usually really pissy till we get home)

Hey look! Pretty good day. However: WTF? New songs cost $1.29? Really?

Visit to Wt's yesterday was very weird, but good. He'd bought his dog a collar, did a bit of yardwork and got all his names right. He even called his BP by her first name. Odd, but wonderful. Keep it up WT!

About to go attempt to rent Watchmen. Hope there is still a copy!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

I shall end this mostly pointless post w/ a Zutara amv )
