It’s Up!

Okay, so after a couple days of tweaking and preparing, the new layout is up. It features Bella because she’s my valentine this year. She wakes up and licks my face just like any loser boyfriend in the past – so why not?

I went all out on this one though, shockingly enough. If you notice when you go through the navigation everything changes (depending on the category). This was intentional. I’ve been working on a lot of business sites lately and for some reason this particular setup is burned into my brain. So using it on a personal site is a tad bit different, but I like it either way. Hell, pink and grey always work well together; doesn’t it?

It’s Wednesday, and oddly enough my day off. I’ve been working my ass off for the last two weeks and am taking a much needed break. I almost didn’t even want to blog or put this template up. I had no reason to turn on my computer, but I promised so that’s why it’s up. I get to spend the next two days finishing up any and everything I can on a few clients sites and then I’m gone for the weekend.

My aunt’s going to the city for some big super bowl thing on Saturday so I’m staying at her house. I got my American Government module yesterday so I’m taking it with me to get all of my homework done. Having two days of absolute silence? There?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s no problem here! Yea, I’ll have to listen to my uncles TV on Sunday because he’s a sports fanatic and apparently the Super Bowl is a big deal, never was to me so I don’t give a shit. I’ve got the rest of the house to myself though, so I’ll work it out. I’m sure I’ll be stuck with either Figgy or Lacey on my lap. Gotta love cats that just won’t leave you alone!

I’ve been breaking down my to-do list for tax season and I’m set way behind because of the billing center at source-1. They send out all of the w2 forms at the same time, so of course I’ll probably have to wait until two weeks before taxes are freaking due, UNFAIR. I definitely know what I’m doing with whatever money I do get to keep this year.

• Gut Room: Go through everything, throw out anything not needed.
• Clean Closet: I’ve got clothes in there that I don’t wear and their just taking up space. A lot of moms shit is still in there too so being as she no longer lives here, hello local landfill.
• Paint Room: I’m going to take down all shelving, posters and nick nacks and fill in the holes and paint everything pure white.
• Paint Doors: I’m painting the closet doors black, or maybe just purchasing new ones because these doors are 20 years old and need an update…badly.
• Purchase Rug: I’m going with either a grey with a black border, or grey with navy border. I currently have a rosey pink one that’s been in here for about 12 years and its just UGLY. It’s in decent condition – I just hate the colors.
• Domestications.com will be my new best friend. I’m getting new pillows, sheets, a comforter, the works. Pillows need to be replaced once a year, and mine are about a month over due.
• Rearrange: I’m basically switching the setup I’ve got right now. As you can tell I’m just moving things around a bit, nothing too major at all. The reason behind this would be that I’m purchasing a new monitor. It’d be easier for me to have my desk next to the window if I can put a new monitor on it. I’ll give me more then half my desk space back and believe me I’d kill for that. I also love having fresh air during the day and unfortunately right now I’m facing a wall…not a window.

So yea – those are my plans. They don’t seem like much but trust me, they’re definitely worth it. I haven’t had a major overhaul in here in 12-13 years, I think its time, believe me.

In any event; It’s almost 2 pm which means I have to go veg out on the couch for an hour before dad gets home. I have to then head on down to the grocery store and do some shopping. There’s absolutely no food in the house and I’m getting sick of my sister bitching about it. For someone who fucked up her own car, then decided that she’s buying a brand new ford truck, you’d think she’d go out and get a job…HA. She’s convinced that dad is going to co-sign, and that she’s going to get the loan from the dealership. It’s funny considering she barely works one job and isn’t even on the books, has no bank account, and no previous credit what so ever. I can only imagine how quickly that credit check would work out.

Alrighty – I’m going now. Toodles!
