Love Potion № 9

And I finally, FINALLY, changed the RA layout! YES! If you didn't know any better, you'd have thought I was trying to set a record for last year's half-ass layout update. You remember, the pink JC one that was just a refurb of the green & blue JC one, that I put up in like, March, and it stayed til about Christmas? Yeah, at least this one was only mid-January to mid-June. See? Progress. God... remember when I changed it every month? I used to plan them out months ahead of time too. And now... nothing.

Anyway... as mentioned in the Updates section, I'm still re-writing Redemption. I'm starting Chapter 7, and the problem now (as always) is typing it up. Grrr. Maybe I should get with the times and type directly instead of walking around with my obnoxiously organized notebook and hand-writing stuff. But then again, I'm a pen hoarder, so I gotta use the ink somewhere. Um... I'm really really really considering that it's time to give up on L&T. I think I'm just gonna post my notes on how the story ends. Which would mean more typing, but - I think I'm gonna get around that by scanning my notes and calling it a day. But yeah, that story's dead. Furthermore, the storyline, as I've said before, is entirely too personal and painful. Not to mention that I don't hang out with, talk to, or even catch a glimpse of any of those people, so the inspiration for the entire cast is nada. No buenos.

So... I made a new friend. I don't know where things will go with said friend, but I know that I am finally getting bored with the usual 'relationships' that I have. Not sure what that means. Am I getting old? Am I finally over all the bullshit baggage and ready to actually call someone a boyfriend? We'll see. It took me a few moments just to make myself type the word. *shudder* Boyfriend. Ugh. It freaks me out to even consider it. But I'm actually so 'serious' about it that I kept reeling myself in when my flirting could have gone down a different road. And then, I'm all dumbass about it. You know how when I actually like (or think I could like) someone, I get all stupid and shy? Well, yeah. That's where I am. I can give him my smartass flirting all day, but when it comes to inviting him to go out or get together - nothing. Then I have to go whining to our mutual friend to make arrangements for us to hang out. Grrrr. I'm such a girl.

Anyshizz... I'm gonna get going now. Just thought I'd leave that little tidbit for you to read, ponder, and hopefully, if you're the person who that 3rd paragraph is about, you can give me some sort of clue as to what to do next. I'm now going to watch a little Gilmore Girls... (season 2, disc 4) cuz I'm bored and occasionally during bouts of extreme boredom, I start watching series over from the beginning. It's usually GG and Sex & the City. Oh, and listen to this bullshit. My disc 5 of Supernatural season 3 - doesn't work. No season finale, no gag reel. It's all bullshit. Whatever. Ciao for now...
