I logged in on my page here in LJ today and I saw that it has been 27 weeks sine I last updated....

( Let me remedy that... )

I don't want to write this post. I really don't. But DAMN it's been a while since I've ranted.

So, I've been seeing in several of you guys posts that there is a book I should check out. Of the top of my head, I remember Ham, and Linda definitely mentioned it. and when I went to the bookstore guess what? I bumped into it. Very nice cover, first page gripped me

First of all....I GOT A LAPTOP!

Which has been a desperate 'dream' of mine for a very..VERY long time. So now I can do what I always wanted....sit in bed and write to my heart's content! Which I haven't done yet but soon my sweet laptop...soon. * evil laughter*.

Other stories in the Breaking (or not so much) Georgia news:

After a month or so of constant anxiety and a year of worrying I have things in order! Yay!

I got a job, which seems pretty good, if you ask me and it pays really well, so I'm good with that problem at least and I've passed several of the classes and now only a few left for my practice semester. I'm not going to have that as I originally planned in Britain, but I find that the alternative is much more suiting to me. A year for my post-graduate in Britain sounds lovely, and if all goes well, that might happen during 2008!!! It's all been realigned into place actually. So, FINALLY I can take a deep breath and smile. I've been watching many many period dramas and they're so good, plus I'm making some serious progress in my originals. That's also, so good. :-D


My friends have been fantastic over this period of being half-dead and I love them so....But oh! I forgot. There was a new show in Greek TV the other day, called 31 Streets. New show, new actors, filmed half in Athens half in NY...and the weird part?

The director and one of the leads were friends of mine a couple of summers ago when I was in my country house. Had an actual crush with the director actually, but people got in the way and nothing happened between us. Was so weird to see his name as director and watch his brother acting. So funny.

PLUS, I have some things to say and I will in my next post soon, but for now, let me just send my hugs and love to D and Laree for their comments in my previous posts. I know I didn't reply but I'm very forgetful. I hope you know that.

And Lover Unbound was AMAZING. Simply Amazing. Go buy it guys. J.R. Ward has done it again and now it's so much better than before. All the angst and drama...*smiles happily*

My Godfather died yesterday...I saw him once a year...maybe twice, but it really doesn't matter.

I loved him and still do.

You know the one person that you look up to? Not to what he has achieved or how much money he's made or where he is in life at his/her age.

The one person you look up to and say, "Damn I hope that I can be like that."

The principles, the character and personality. The love given and received.

My Godfather was and is that to me.

God, I hope I can live to be like him. To be a genuinely good person. To have that sense of humor that everyone remembers him by. See, that's what bonded me and him. Everyone said I got his sense of humor and his outgoing way, since no one in my family is as quirky as I. Yeah, stupid for non-blood relatives huh? But that bond made me love him even without getting to see him so much.

My heart broke a little bit today.

And even though I felt like it, and even though custom says I should I did NOT wear black. I did NOT cry.

Why?

Because I KNOW him. He's inside me. And his voice in my head told me to go for red and screw the weeping crones. They only have a couple more years in them anyway.


I love you, wherever you are...and I know that Penelope and all the ones I've lost will have already made you feel at home.

Shit, you're probably laughing your asses off at me right now...Privileged buggers!

Okay, after several days of coping with the heat and how I don't get to go to the sea while others can, I'll be going away probably hours after getting my hands on HP and the deathly Hallows. I know it's kinda anticlimactic to read it on my own and then have no one to discuss it with for about a week if not more, but yeah...I'm going crazy staying in this stinking city and showering five times a day plus both my sis and bro are over there for the weekend and I kinda missed the assembled chaos that is all my family together. So I feel pressured to go and I want to, too...but I wanna stay for HP as well...to geek out...Damn!

So, I just wanted to tell all the bah over at the bahfest as well as to the lovely D, that  I'll probably (though there's a small possibility of the opposite) won't be here tomorrow (/tonight) to talk HP with you all online. I hate it yeah...but if I don't get to be with you guys over there, then I guess I'll have to settle for the seaside.

So, yeah...I'm crossing my fingers for either possibility for entirely different reasons for each.

God, how I wish I could do everything at once...why do I torn like this? *sighs*

Though you don't seem to miss me that much over there at Alabama. Who knows what you're all up to? *smirks* Shameless bah, forgetting us outside the grazing field of the flock. You with me, D?

Oh, well..I'll just go and bah alone then...

:p

I shall assume my most dreaded serious expression for this post, to say the following:

Now get a thicker goatee and I'm set to go....hehe
