Thank You, Lady Gaga

First, a warning. I'm departing a lot from my usual gaming and related posts. Instead, today, I want to talk about something very personal. You know how the media's been all abuzz about Lady Gaga's recent weight gain? You know how she responded with a new section of her social media site that included photos of herself and the confession "Bulimia and Anorexia Since I Was 15"? Yeah, we're talking about body image issues and what that entails. You've been warned.

Just rolled out of bed

Yes, I just rolled out of bed. It's 9:15. I feel both sore and numb this morning. As the days get closer to my psychiatric appointment, I get more nervous. I also have been getting more and more nervous with my birthday coming up (2 weeks, 6 days and counting). Then there's 2 weddings Greg and I will be going to: his sister's and his friend's. I've met his sister and her fiancee and I like them both a lot, but I'm nervous about what I'm going to wear (ok, so I found a fabulous top at Lane Bryant, but it's a halter...) and if I'm going to stick out like a sore thumb and if I'm too chubby to pull it off. And then I get to play the "Avoid the photographer" game. I'm going to be curious, of course, about the photog's equipment and all, but I hate being in front of the lens, I want to be behind it!

I don't know if all this worry is justified...but I'm nervous as hell.

More than meets the eye

I went to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen today. OMG SO GOOD! I laughed, I cried, I wanted to jump out of my chair and cheer!

Also, I found an artist I enjoy Immensely. His name is James Jean and his art is...interesting to say the least. His paintings contain much more than a mere glance can tell. I like the Southern Belle portion of his work, "Wine". Specifically, I like the center piece, with the skeletons of her past coming from under her dress. Maybe it would be a good tattoo?

I'm terrible at blogging

Yes, I know, I haven't posted in a while. I could come up with excuses, but I won't so...

In my news, I have been handed an unconfirmed diagnosis of my mental condition. Bipolar Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, and Attention Deficit Disorder. I have done my research, and it all sound plausible. If I am all of the above, so be it. Also, I'm pulling a 4.0 GPA at school with near-perfect attendance. YAY ME! I think...guess that makes me a schoolgirl, no?

In other news, found this...it's called the "Shit Box". Yes, it's a box you poop in.

I've missed you...

So, it's been far too long since I've posted...got caught up in life of course. But, I have:

1. Visited the family (woohoo!!)
2. Won a prize from work and Canon (yes the camera company)
3. Started the process for enrolling in college (my first day is December 1st)
4. Begun organizing the apartment
5. Started looking for a new apartment
6. Finished miscellaneous projects in crafting. (Pictures to come soon)
   

I think that's bout it...
