Another lesson is learned!

And that last post, my friends, is why one should not post blog entries when stressed, sick, over tired or drunk (or any combo of those conditions). You get poorly written emo rambling.
Sorry.

One more week of school-hell, then a little over a week after that and I will be done done done and hopefully ready to focus on better and happier things, like new jewelry and better blog posts.

I'm getting sick and should go to bed

Instead I am blogging. (Nothing new to see here...)

When things go awry, do you sometimes wonder where you went wrong? Was it something gradual? Or was it one thing - one thing you said or did that was so wrong and yet you had no clue. Maybe you just took one step too far...

I have dated/gone out with/been smitten with/fallen for too many boys. The reasons are plentiful. Most of them no longer merit a second thought. But there are a few I wonder about.
What if ... maybe I ... if I'd only ...
Sometimes I feel like a walking cliché (apparently I am writing like one).

Sometimes I feel it is incurable.
Sometimes I think I bring it on myself, but somehow cannot stop myself...

Emote


Here's what's up with me & on my radar as of late...

My friend posted this on her facebook page recently, and it seems everyone in the world has now seen it, but just in case you've been hanging in a cave recently...
The story of Christian the lion is pretty spectacular! It made me super teary in a good way. I don't know if I have seen a man that emotional before! At least in real life...check out the vid if you haven't already. It's short and totally worth it!

My mom got diagnosed with diabetes a few weeks ago. So that's really sucking! We don't really have a history of it in the family, she's slim and active and she eats pretty well, so it was completely unexpected and the doctor was really surprised and apologetic about the news. She put my mom on some pills but unfortunately nothing has changed yet. Anyhow, there are a couple different things they are going to try (of course). Now I might have to worry about diabetes, of course, but haven't yet convinced myself to be any more wary of my diet.
I eat well-ish...

I went on a date with Ryan this past weekend and he is directing The Laramie Project, which will be playing in Vancouver near the end of December. A bunch of loonies known as The Westboro Baptist Church have said that they will come out here to protest the play. Because apparently they have nothing better to do with their time than to come over to Canada from the US so that they can spread their hatred around.
Anyhow. If you ever wonder why I question humanity on occassion, they would be a good example. The cast of the production is organizing a peaceful anti-hate rally on November 28, at the time that the protest is supposed to occur, so if anyone reading this is from Vancouver you can contact me for info.

Ryan is growing on me. Sometimes these infatuations don't last very long for me as I get all excited about 3 things and then later reality sets in ... but I am always hopeful. So ... I am hopeful :)

Polar Love

I would be happy to spend my days making treasuries. They are stories in picture form (at least mine are).
I got one today: it's called Polar Love.
It isn't just global warming melting the ice caps...
Ha! Ok, well anyhow, you can check it out here. I think it's fabulous (of course I do).
xxo.

Snow White and Rose Red

I love that fairytale! Although, you know, the bear didn't *have* to turn into a prince. But, you know, that's just my opinion :)
Anyhow, the girls inspired two anklets I made and listed in the shop, to be found here and here.
They're lovely and oh-so-affordable!
Also, I made a to-die-for long necklace with dark peacock pearls and black glass beads. It's just the thing to wear to all the holiday parties you've got coming up! At least that' s what I'd be doing with it if I allowed myself to keep it. It should be up in the shop between Wednesday & Friday.
Here's a sneak peek.

XOXO
