One minute you want me to grow up; the next you want me to behave. What am I to you a little girl or a sociological problem? I don’t like to conform Aunt Gif. Take a look at men today on the news. Never in history have all the men in a nation’s capital dressed exactly alike. Ties, shirts, coats of grey. It’s appalling. — Mona, Mayfair Witches

You’re always there when I turn around

Filed under: Domain, Friends, General, Life —289 words by Steph @ 11:32 pm BBC Wikipedia

It was my little sisters birthday today, so cheers to you, Lily. Not that you’ll see this, as you’re only seven at the moment - but maybe, one day you’ll care. :)

I’ve added my twitter to the sidebar so you can better stalk me ;) and the blends page is half done, you can go give it a look if you fancy. For those who are new it’s here. The ones from last year are all up and have thumbnails, but the underline on the links appears to be causing a weird problem, so ignore any random looking black and/or orange lines, please. B-)

I’m currently working on some craft projects I plan on selling. I had made a blog for that on wp.com, but thats apparently a no no so I’ll have something fixed up soon, probably. Things like hand dyed papers/OOAK* corkboards/ Goddess Dolls and such. Is there anything you think I could do that you’d like to see for sale?

On another note, someone apparently brought me paid time on Flickr. Which is weird. And I have no idea who did it.. but.. cool stuff!

Oh and mum brought me The Children of Hurin… I think thats all I have to say. *ponders*

Oh and Lea, happy birthday. Again. Despite I said so a day early. @};-

* OOAK means ‘One Of A Kind’

PS: Okay. Maybe not. Go check out my new forums:

Do You Ever Get Lonely?

This has to be the simplest theme I’ve ever had on a website of mine. I didn’t make the theme itself, but I did make the header. I’ve been having coding block for layouts. I mean, I could do the graphics forever, but coding gets old fast.

So, tada! Nice, clean site thanks to Ardamis.com.

As to what’s new, well for now I’m uploading the new icons, I’ve got some ideas about how I’m going to fix up the blends sections and such, I want them too look better. I think I’ll install lightbox again since I’ve learnt how to wrangle with it a bit better now.

Also, how about a little life update for those who don’t follow my blogs.

I’ve been doing various things over the last few months, notably a heck of a lot of RPing and research on some things. Marauders Life restarted just the other week and we’ve been at it. I love ML, though admittedly this is the third time we’ve restarted, and Sammy and I kind of managed to get Bellatrix and Rodolphus kicked out of Hogwarts within an all time record of three school days approximately. So much for going slow.

Those I get the distinct feeling some of the chaos was induced by the fact Sammy and I were finally talking on microphones and were plotting - therefore Krista and Jamie had no idea what so ever we were up to until it happened. It just so happened we blew up a few students and castle parts. Namely the great hall.

But a lot has been going on over there, it’s quite fun, actually.

I’ve also been keeping track of the dreaded Strikethrough 07. That wasn’t the most pleasant situation I’ve ever been unfortunate enough to watch, especially with company representatives openly mocking it’s user base. As a person who enjoyed livejournal enough to pay for an account since two months after I joined, I was utterly appalled, though I admit not too shocked as this was some time in from the beginning of the pissing contest. It is needless to say that I have moved, and may possibly just blog here, if I find any other sites lacking. Though I am quite enjoying greatest journal (which I was already a member of for ages anyways) and insane journal, though neither is exactly what I loved about LJ, and that makes me lonesome some, but you can’t win them all.

In other news my mother need to grow up. And she knows where this is, so:

MUM IF YOU READ THIS PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS UTTERLY IMMATURE TO REFUSE TO GO TO CHRISTMAS DINNER MERELY BECAUSE YOU DO NOT LIKE YOUR UNCLES WIFE. JONE IS MOST CERTAINLY NOT GOING TO BE THE ONLY PERSON THERE AND FRANKLY I’M A WITCH, I DON’T CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS ANYMORE PERSONALLY, AND I’M GOING WITHOUT COMPLAINING. PLEASE JUST GROW UP.

That said she’ll probably only notice this next July. =))

Uh yeah, it’s late. I need to go. I’ll finish with some more stuff soon, I promise. And also? Sometimes I upload without adding it here. it’s bad of me and I’m sorry.

P.S. Theres like 60 new Harry Potter Icons or so.
