fireball

as I started my walk to the bus this morning, a flickering in the east caught my eye. as I watched, the blue-white flicker approached, hazy and softened through the light cloud cover, but burning bright at its heart. in a matte of moments it had streaked directly above my head and passed along to the west on its journey - down through the atmosphere and into the ocean or skipping past and spinning back away into the solar system, I do not know. perhaps it burned so brightly that it expired before touching down, it's heart gone cold.

on new phones

so, all i want is a new phone. i've had mine for four years and was going to get a new one last year until my brother took my upgrade (one of the few times i've given in on something, mostly because i just wasn't in the mood to argue). so i put off getting one as i would need to use my dad's upgrade, but we kept not having time when i was home and i decided to wait for the next version as there were some things i did not like about the newest out at the time.

now here i am and i can't get the phone i want because no one has it in stock. i don't want the phone so that i can have the newest gadget that's all bright and shiny and use it as a status symbol - i want the fucking thing because my current phone needs to be replaced. what happens, though? no one knows when they'll get one in a shipment because they are sent random boxes of things. (yes, yes, supply and demand and all that total cock of bs.) the assholes of the world are allowed to walk into a store and purchase more than five phones so that they can then go and resell at outrageous prices. the stores can't reliably get anything in. i'm left in a bitchy mood for the past week because i can't get myself a phone. ordering online is out because of the hassle that would cause with the phone numbers involved in the upgrade and not wanting to change our service agreement.

ugh!

august fashion

it's been a while since i've really made any posts here...i really want to get back to at least one good one a month as it helps to get my thoughts out there (even if only for myself). for now, you get a photo post! i got to have a good time earlier last week with a friend in town and play with our c-lines together. dante and faust are mine, but the chloe is her's.

working hard...

i feel like i've been on the go for months now without respite. the few times that i get to just sit back and relax without working on something are usually simply moments that i am completely brain dead. i feel like i've been neglecting friends (for the most part since there have been things going on that have involved friends, so obviously not in those instances) and i seriously cannot remember the last time i didn't have something going on. there have been a few times that i've had some "me" time that i managed to not have something niggling at me that i needed to do, but they have been few and far between in recent times. aaaaaaaanyway, just want my friends to know that, if i have something for you, if we keep saying we need to hang out, or if we simply haven't connected in a month or three, i miss you and hope that we can soon! *goes back into her hobbit hole to work on more projects that need to be done in the next 3 weeks*

sometimes...

i wish i could change the world and how things are. things need to be better, but in the best of ways. i can't keep dealing with the bad...i'm gonna break one of these days.
