I’m on the PC tonight, so no pictures. Those are all on the mac. I do EVERYTHING on the mac and if I didn’t need this PC for my wishblade, I probably wouldn’t even own it.  Unfortunately, for whatever reason, the mac is being cranky, or maybe it’s just 4shared… I’m trying to download some quick pages from there, and they"re taking FOREVER.  Jerry’s watching Apocolypto.  I TRIED to watch it, but there’s no way.  I don’t know if I am just majorly PMSing or WHAT, but I am NOT able to take anything too heavy right now.  Maybe I feel like my life is too much to handle, why would I want my entertainment to be anything but lighthearted "forget about it" fluff?

I’m tired, but darn it, I’m going to Wal mart TONIGHT to get Harry Potter 7!!!!  I’ve been waiting OH SO patiently for the last book to come out (sniff sniff).  From what I understand, JK Rowling is SO HAPPY to be done with Harry.  I don’t blame her in the least.  Her life has changed so much since undertaking the books, and I don’t mean with just the media…. she’s had a baby, and that alone, I can tell you, is more than enough to want to be done with "work"  LOL.  Babies ARE work.  I will miss Harry Potter though, they were GOOD books.  But I am happy for Ms Rowling.

Man, I should maybe restart the mac…it’s dragging BUTT.  I just looked at my desk, and saw a Starburst wrapper, and now I want an orange starburst.  I am DEFINITELY PMSing.  I can’t stick to a diet this time of the month, I crave sugar, I’m MOODY as hell, I’m tired constantly… grrr.  Oh yea, did I mention PISSY? 

Oh, speaking of pissy… the kids are going back to school on MONDAY!!!  Even Shabree!  YAY!  First day of kindergarten (more sniff sniff as I WILL miss Shabree)  She’s got A.M. kindergarten as I mentioned a few posts ago… which I was kind of upset about…wanted her to have PM so I could put baby girl down for a nap and have some peace and quiet.  Now I’ll have to be helping with homework!  🙁

Man, I’m not sure I’m going to MAKE it to midnight.  Jerry’s going with me.  Rick’ll keep an eye on things.  It’s kind of nice having another adult around… get to sneak off in the middle of the night with my hubby 😉  Well, it’s 2 hours.  You know, it SUCKS…we’re on the west coast… the east coast already HAS their copies out.  Why can’t we????  NOT FAIR!

Thought I might call them and see if they’ve got it out, or if I have to wait, but the store I go to is not in my phone book…will have to locate a different one.

Darn, have to wait til 12.  Though now it’s only and hour and a half, instead of two hours as it was when I started this post!

I realized after I posted yesterday that I NEVER finished it up.  I never really got past the morning.  I guess suffice it to say…went to Stockton, got Linda, and she was NOT supposed to be out…she was supposed to be home, in bed, with her arm immobilized… so we had to kind of rush her home, because she was bleeding, and she ended up having to go BACK to the drs, for having overdone it… and she’s got a Staph infection, she told me this morning, and it’s CONTAGIOUS.  So my girls MAY get it… I probably won’t, unless I get it from them.  And they won’t likely get it, but who knows for sure?  Argh.  We’re SO going to take our vitamins over the next few days.  No incubation period though, so that’s ONE good thing, and the chances are so low of getting it that her dr didn’t even want her to tell me.  He thought she was overreacting.

My printer is STILL not here, boo hoo.  I am waiting so patiently.  I just want to be able to print 12×12, and I am EXCITED about this, let me tell you!  Well, I HAVE said it, many times in the last week, lol… so I will quickly put that subject to rest.

I am really out of sorts.  I should have gone to bed early tonight, and just gone to get the book in the morning.  But I really want it now, and if I wasn’t afraid of not being able to put it down once I started in on it (meaning no sleep tonight either) I would start it tonight.  So why get it tonight you ask?  Well… I don’t know.  Probably because I so rarely go out this late, that it feels like something of an adventure?  Because I want to avoid the masses?  I don’t know!  Last time, it came out while I was on vacation… I had to WAIT til I got back to get the darn thing!  I would love to say I was among the first to get mine. 
And I MIGHT just have to start it tonight anyway, force myself to put it down so I can get some sleep.  That MIGHT work.  I guess we’ll see, lol.

I wish I COULD post pictures.  I did a few layouts between last night and today on the computer… I am just going great guns with this digi scrapping thing using quick pages… I LOVE those things.  I’m having the keep the journaling pretty simple though, and I keep thinking, I should really be doing more journaling… but oh well.  I am getting kind of where I want to go and MAKE a page though… I want to feel the elements, etc… but I do like digi scrapping… it comes very naturally to me, it seems.  Well, once I finally figured out layers.  I’m gonna get to a point here when I need to start learning how to do other things, but what I’m really looking forward to doing, honestly, is hybrid scrapping, or combining the two worlds.  It’s going to be a lot easier to do that when I get my printer.  Well, in ways, I’ve always done that.  I’ve usually journaled on my computer, I’ve printed most of my pictures from the computer… in many ways, the computer has figured prominently in my scrapping.  But I can’t really make a shaker box that REALLY shakes on the computer!  Though I have been trying to get it done with the wishblade… again, using the computer!  Oh that reminds me, I need new blades for that thing… and a new cutting strip.  I’ve just about ruined both, sadly enough.

Well, what else, if anything?  It’s 10:43 now…

Linda and I were talking before we were so rudely interrupted by her bleeding, lol… about this time I seem to be going through. 

Hm…forgot all about this post.

I got Harry Potter.  I’m going to bed.
