Dream of the Dragon: December 2007
http://laugh-of-the-dragon.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
I received the bestest Christmas present ever this year, and I'm so happy my cheeks hurt from smiling so much. The boy proposed to me. Of course. I said yes. And then bawled. And I can't stop smiling and staring at my ring. It's perfect. The day was perfect. I hope you all had just as wonderful and happy a day as I did. :). How to stalk a wily bag of coffee beans. Random silliness in an otherwise decaffienated world. This is, utterly and unabashedly, wrong. These casual grabbers are simply inexperienced&...

Dream of the Dragon: May 2008
http://laugh-of-the-dragon.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Apparently, I taste good. Or I need to take a little more time in the shower. Non-cleaning licks - kisses - are much more casual, involving one or only a few little licks in greeting. This is on fingers, ankles, and even noses during snorgle-time. Even though their tongues are like sandpaper, I'm charmed. This is how Goblin and Sister spend agood half of their time. The other half involves mostly sleeping. Yay for videos! For Mama Wren, who loves kitten toes as much as I do. Thank you, Grampa. Is tough&#...

Talk about perfect timing! Now that we're moving into a place where we can have a cat, I've been dreaming of kitties, looking at the photos of available cats and kittens on the local animal shelter's website, etc. I've been making lists of what I'd need to get for a kitty, as well as looking up vaccination and spay/neuter ages. Now all I need is the kitty. And in two months I'll have one! One of my co-workers today asked me if I'd like a kitten. Of course I nodded vigorously and said "Ohmigodyes! So I'm ...

Dream of the Dragon: "Grown-up-ism"
http://laugh-of-the-dragon.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-know-it-sounds-kinda-funny-it-does-to.html
I know it sounds kinda funny - it does to me, anyway - but sometimes I wonder when I'll finally be a "grown-up.". Maybe not. Those I've always considered "grown-ups" have been older than me by at least five years. Always. At 22, I thought I'd be one of the "grown" ones by now, but I still feel awkward and stumbly and sometimes teenage-ish, with a twist of real life experience to make me shut up and think before speaking and acting (definately not a normal. Teenage quality, so maybe that says something).

My first art link! My Stickynote Art Exchange. Post has been linked on a most awesome blog: stickynote theatre. A must-see for all sticky-doodlers, sketchers and masterminds alike. Go check it out! I guess this means I have to actually do what I said I was going to do, and post one quick random stickynote sketch per month for anyone, anywhere, to utilize for their own creative fun. So, here's the second official stickynote:. I don't know. What does it do? I don't know. You tell me. One of my most terrify...

I don't have breast cancer. Just a cyst, which was gone by the time I had my follow-up appointment with my doctor. Needless to say, I was relieved. And make Snickerdoodles. Lots of 'em. Happy holidays, all. Fondled (by a machine! I have been officially inducted into the world of mammograms and all the fun worry that accompanies them. Oh, joy. Oh yeah, and no caffiene for a week until I go back to see her again this Friday for test results and follow up exam to see if the lump is still there. Going to fre...

Dream of the Dragon: Cubicle Warfare
http://laugh-of-the-dragon.blogspot.com/2009/01/cubicle-warfare.html
It is considerably noisier in my new cubicle at work. I'm actually in a cubicle. This is the biggest change that has taken place at work lately. So many people from all departments have been let go that there was a lot. Never mind the fact that the cabinet is being used by the graphics person who now has her desk there, and so needs. It, and there's no where else to put it. Never mind the fact that the dumbass could just stand up straight. If I can't have general peace and quiet, and I can't have some of...

Dream of the Dragon: June 2008

Sometimes you realize that despite life's best efforts to induce nervous breakdowns, alcoholism or hermitism, you're actually doing pretty good at keeping up and keeping on top, and that simple moment of understanding brings with it a big relief and a sort of new, resolute calm. I hit that moment this morning. Despite all of the crappy things that have been brewing in my life lately, I kicked that classes ass, and it was not an easy one by any means. Maybe what I'm actually tired of is being so useless&#...

Dream of the Dragon: April 2008
http://laugh-of-the-dragon.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
I GOT TO PET BEBBEH KITTEHS THIS MORNING! Ahem Sorry 'bout that. I'm just in a ridiculously good mood. Fluffy, fuzzy, wriggly kittens - two of them! Being the first thing I run into as I walk into work in the morning is just one of those classic great ways to start the day. They were Goblin's siblings, a white one with black spots (and two. Have fur that soft, but this kitten does. It doesn't feel real. They were so little and hoppity and fuzzy big-eared and cute! A (kinda-sorta-when-I-feel-like-it) dail...

Fetch boy, fetch! So much of a geek that upon seeing this fish training kit. On thinkgeek.com, my heart fluttered and I excitedly looked over at my betta fish, Zaphod, here at work, thinking, "This will give him something to do. Am I really so much of a geek that I actually want to buy this silly little kit and teach Zaphod to play soccer? Yes Yes I am. It is considerably noisier in my new cubicle at work. I'm actually in a cubicle. Yesterday when he was bitching about the cabinet, I not-so-diplomaticall...
