Déjà Vu

Posted in My World with tags , , , on November 6, 2009 by darklucia13

Hi Guys, this one’s gonna be super quick-it’s too late and I’m too tired to create anything even semi-sensible. Notice the theme change? If you’ve been around for a while, you’ll remember that this was the original theme(and header photo) from last year. I told U I hated the way the blog looked lately, so I had to change it, and this was an easy quick fix-so it’ll have to do for now. I’ve also added some odds n’ ends photos, so have a look if you want-but there isn’t any new ones yet. There are photos of me when I was a tiny terror though. Ok, I didn’t get around to emails or writing Thursday-I had too many useless necessary things to do instead, (blah!) I’ll hopefully be able to leave another audio entry later today or Saturday.

 Ok, off to probably have really rotten dreams (again) about things like a really mean cat that lives in a giant bird’s nest and waits to pounce when I walk by…Have I mentioned that I really, really hate sleeping??

Nitey-Nite!

Hugs & Tugs

P.S. Glad U liked the last audio entry-it was soooooooooooo nice hearing from U again.

Catching up (audio)

“Happy” Sunday (ughhhh-I loathe Sundays!) Ok, It’s been ages since my last audio, so I’m a bit ‘rusty’, but here ya go (IF U can handle my rambling). I’ve really missed U and I’m REALLY back this time-I PROMISE.

Boop boop a doop,

Hello U,

I’ve been working on an audio entry, but finding the opportune time to record is a bit difficult at the moment. I think it’d be easier to actually tell you what I’ve been going through for the past several months, rather than typing (I’m a lazy typer, remember?) If you’ve emailed me or messaged me while I was hiding away feeling sorry for myself and then actually making the effort to come to terms with certain things, I’ll be emailing you over the weekend. I really appreciate the feedback and I love you bunches and bunches-seriously-you’ve been awesome and it’s really helped kicked my ass back into place, whatever that is.

The weather’s getting dreadful and I’m not dealing with the cold very well-ughh, it’s already in the 40’s-tell me, what happened to autumn? Off to hunt down and viciously slay Jack Frost before the whole winter thing comes any closer…Or maybe I’ll just have a shower and fall sleep instead, who knows.

Hi Dolls, I’m home…Are U still here?

An over-extended break-it’s been too long, I know. I’ve been lurking for days, but wasn’t quite ready to say anything; hard to believe that I could be at a loss for words, right?

I’m back (finally)…and once again full of rambles, quips and Lucia-speak. But for now, I’m off to get comfy and catch up on things and then I’ll post again. And I’m leaving U with one of my favorite songs- pay careful attention, lovelies  (and enjoy!).

P.S. The Underground is looking a bit lame these days, we SO need to redecorate!

Friday Night quickie

Posted in My World with tags , , , , , on June 20, 2009 by darklucia13

I had a really good day today-nothing out of the ordinary, but I took the time to do some things I’ve wanted to do for a while…and it was one of those days when the hours pass slowly…slow enough to get things done, that is.

I’m trying to make this a quickie, because I’m off to a party tomorrow…No, it’s not  the sort of party where I get lost in conversation about the glory of Antonin Artaud- it’s my mother’s 60th birthday party…Once upon a time, I could take  her out to a wonderful dinner and perhaps a fabulous museum exhibit, making sure that everyone in the room knew it was MY mother’s birthday…Now, my presence at her party IS the present-let’s hope it’s enough…I’m no good with this sort of social to-do …I’ll just stay very close to N&D and eye-smile a lot, and hope no one notices me at all…I mean, what DO I say to relatives that I haven’t see in years? Should I discuss my writing projects, or my tiny voice acting endeavors? MS? No, those things won’t do in this sort of situation, so what’s left?  The weather, of course.

Ok, I really have to go to bed-but one more thing-Who’s the woman that inspires me in so many ways??? No, we aren’t talking about Cleopatra, Queen Elizabeth I, nor  Mary Magdalene. The one woman who I can refer to myself as a “fan”of is Elizabeth Taylor, of course! Well, guess what? She’s on Twitter…and yes, it’s the REAL Elizabeth! When I discovered this, I think I may have actually made a squeaking sound-and believe me, very few people make me squeak aloud! So sometimes when I read her tweets, I find myself saying “wow, yeah-you’re absolutely right: Life really is empty without Earrings!”

Ok, so that’s my random geek girl confession for the week…Still, you have no idea how great it is to read something that she  feels like saying.

Now,  what are the odds of convincing her to adopt me??

Ok, I really need to go to sleep…Nitey-Nite!

Time for a word with the Dream King

Posted in My World with tags , , , , on June 18, 2009 by darklucia13

It’s one of those days when I’d love to say something interesting, but I’m really sleepy and honestly, I’ve felt pretty lousy for the past few days…blame it on a lovely cocktail of sporadic sleeping, (sometimes going 30+ hours without stopping and at other times, sleeping 14+ hours at once and even then  finding it difficult to drag myself out of bed), and of course that not so wonderful little curse: MS… By the way, I finally found the nerve to make an appointment with the neurologists, thanks to a bit of  gentle nudging from my Magnum Opus, (Nile)…looks like someone needs his Mom to stick around for a long while afterall-despite the occasional teenage angst (his, not mine-mine isn’t ’occasional’)

So, I’m really focusing on facing things…facing that this is real,(which became a kazillion times more real when I was on the phone making the appointment) and accepting what I can and can not change in my world. I’ll be going bright and early (10 a.m.- ugh!) on Friday, July 3 to see Dr. A., so wish me good luck, because this is not something I’m at all looking forward to…But unlike my last trip to the neuro 3 years or so ago, I’ll be better prepared and now that I know for sure what we’re dealing with, things will be much more focused, and I’ll find out what I can do to slow the MonSter down and spend more time living, rather than merely existing. And hopefully living means getting on with the countless projects that are currently collecting dust.

I’ve not done emails in days and days, which I plan to do tomorrow-so if it’s my turn, you’ll be hearing from me soon. Hopefully tonight, I’ll actually get real sleep and not spend my night smashing zombie skulls, while trying really hard to not to be bitten by one…sounds like a pretty average video game, I know-but it makes for really, really bad dreams, believe me. Maybe I need to have a word with the Dream King or something?

Ok, I thought I’d leave a new picture, and I’ll spare you most of my opinions on what I think of it-but it’s brand new, so as U can see, I’m still alive-just feeling totally exhausted right now and so lazily ‘unglam’…and the picture quality is dreadful, I realize-though I’m not really sure how that happened…anyway, it was actually ‘Son-approved’, which says leaps and bounds, and I’m quite sure he’s happy that it isn’t ‘too provocative’, which is something he recently accused his Mom of being (Me? Provocative?) So here ya go- a kind, gentle, kid-friendly, Sweet, Non-Provocative Lucia…ugh!

  

Hugs & all that yummy stuff,
