Frustrating Losing It All...Again!

So I went to work on Sunday, came home, and Curtis was rebooting the system.  Come to find out, the whole computer was practically crashed and lost just about everything.  Luckily, the computer had given my boyfriend the option of backing up the files.  So, I technically didn't lose anything, I just have to go digging around the back ups to find it.

This is very frustrating to me seeing as I had lost my laptop, lost his laptop, lost the old computer TWICE.  So, it got me a little discouraged.

However, I am feeling much better now and just wanted to say that I am working very hard on all these projects I've been dropping hints about.  Pocketful Of Insight will officially be set up and running as soon as I finish the video footage for the tattoo expo from Vegas.  Then it shall have new posts every other day on products/movies/music/whatever I feel like.

As well, I have been working on my friends and mine's Zazzle account/designs.  A lot of the old ones need retouching and some just need to be deleted, period.  Though, this is also discouraging when your friend sees it as a fun little side thing and you're trying to put your heart into it!  I wish I could draw like him because then I wouldn't to worry about.  I could easily take it over myself when he goes away to doctoring school.  Sigh.

Then there is the money/work issue.  My job is very...well, not well put together and I get about five scheduled hours a week.  Minimum wage + ten hrs every paycheck = me not making enough.  Not to mention, Curtis got demoted at work just so they cut his pay and save a few bucks.  So he's depressed and stressed about bills, I'm stressed about bills and depressed about the computer.  It just equals one big fail of a week.

So you see, whoever you are... I have been very discouraged lately.  But this does not mean I have given up hope on my writing.  In fact, it has put a fire under my bum, moving me into motion!  I have wrote up the rough, rough draft of my book.  I will be working HARD on that.  I have discussed new design ideas with Hugo.  And, I have put most of the Las Vegas footage together and finished the article.  I have been doing a lot, just nothing for the public eye.  This needs to change.

And it will.
Very soon.

Oh, I Need to Update.

I'm watching Herculces.
This movie is amazing. I love Greek Mythology.

Anyway.
I stopped the detox because it was being all weird and perhaps I was doing it right. I felt all sicky and my energy was practically zero the whole time. So, eased back off and am now just going to the gym every other day. But oh well! It's not like I need to lose any pounds! That's what those detoxes seem like to most people, especially arrogent people. It's actually something to clean out your body and blood stream. The gym is lovely. I love working out. It's so thrilling and actually gives me some energy.

You know what's funny?
When people start blogs 'for their family' but they never seem to get any comments or anything? Makes me wonder if they are who they say are! I mean, it's the internet and anyone could pose as someone else. In fact, I don't believe SHE'S a she at all. I think she's an imaginary person. I mean honestly... I don't know ANYONE who has obsessed over someone's ex as I'm told this person does. I've had a friend not like her man's ex, but never start a slam book about her, constantly thinking about her boyfriend's ex... I don't know. Seems fishy to me. But, I don't like to look. Because it's just a waste of time to worry about someone else's denial and harsh words. I mean, I wouldn't waste my time posting about how much I hated my old boss. That'd be like 24 hours of pure wasted time! Besides, we may have been ignored for the least part, but we still got what we wanted; them. ^__^ Chew on that.

SO!
I have gotten a lot done lately! Especially considering how busy I have been. I finally got my new sewing machine and it has been working like a dream! I've got like 56 stitch options, the bobbin is easy to load, it's pretty quiet... Aaah, finally things are falling through for me. I can continue work on my designs and my ultimate goal. So, they got side tracked for a little over a month. Big deal! I'm getting closer and closer to my dream as each day goes by.

The beach is amazing. I love living like five minutes from it. We go every week, if not every other day. The puppy loves it too! He hates the cold water, but loves digging and socializing with all of the other dogs. I live in the most beautiful place in the world! Especially in Nevada. Every else here is just disgusting and pointless. Especially Dayton! Yuck, white trashville. The only thing Reno has going for it is the malls and nicer casinos. But it's just a mini Vegas. Which we all know is crackville. ;D But, it's alright... Everyone needs one of those places so the nicer places, like where I am, seem even better. Too bad about all the snow, though!

Anyways, Friday will be most amazing. We've got a fanastic day lined up. Spending the whole day with three of my favorite people, seeing my top favorite band... What more could I ask for? I'm living my life how I please and it's perfect. I don't need to be 'doing something' to keep me happy. I'm perfectly content with just being me and living freely. Rather than being wrapped up in a job that doesn't really satisfy me. Ugh. I do miss all the Childrens Museum, however. It was pretty funny teaching kids about stuff and hanging around them all day. But I am young! So I can do just about anything I want seeing as when I do work, I work something I like and I do it extremely well. I'm also smart about spending and my bills, so I have no money worries. Like a lot of people out there. Poor guys.

But hey! I was taught well and not everyone has that.

Anyways! I have to go get some real stuff done! Got to stop wasting time on blogging.
;) Laters.
