Tiney (tee-ny)

I don't think I'll ever get over the fact that I'll be missing David Tennant in the states. I mean, sure I'm over the initial freak out, but then I'll be waiting for the videos of his panel at Comic Con and then that'll renew my regret that I wasn't able to make it. Okay, so maybe I'll get over it in a few months... by the end of the year. XD I am such a dork.

People have been asking me to post pictures of the inside of the house, but I don't think I'll be posting those until we're done unpacking. As it is, it'd be like, hey, look some boxes! Here are some more boxes! Look at these other boxes! I've also been asked for a video tour. HEHE. I think I can do that too, but it's the same answer, not until we're done unpacking. Like I said, we're not painting until Mike gets here to help us pick colors, so if you have any color suggestions for the exterior of the house, please do share. I'll try to get pics up of the rooms soon so people can throw out color ideas for the rooms. XD

In about 4 to 6 months I probably won't be in Orlando anymore. I probably won't be in Florida actually. We'll see. I've been in a kind of somber mood because of it and I'm trying to take my mind off of it by sewing.

After Marty passed his defense in December I figured he would be done and he'd find a job in Orlando and all things would be peachy keen. In actuality Marty's been juggling between finding a job, dealing with his slackass hippie advisor, finishing his dissertation and other papers, and spending time with me and friends.

Well now it's March and Marty's been getting calls from various companies. He has some second interviews lined up so that's good. Basically the prospects are in New Orleans, Morgantown (West Virginia), Albany (NY) and Attapulgus (GA, WTF name, right?). Yep, they're all out of state. I know some people dislike Florida but I like it. Basically I just want to stay close to my family and friends.

I mean, I just made new costuming friends, why would I want to move away from them? Course, the costuming group is all over the country but the largest group is in Florida.

I'm rooting for Attapulgus, GA. Then my second choice is New Orleans. Course, this is all contingent on Marty getting an offer from those places and then seeing if the offer is worth it...

Attapulgus, GA is only a little more than a half hour north of Tallahassee. It is right on the FL-GA border. It's probably the bufu-est town but at least it's close to where there's people I know and I can still attend Megacon and Dragoncon and other conventions in the area. :)

It's actually weird to me that I'm so bummed about moving. I should be excited. I think what bothers me is not knowing and 4 to 6 months isn't very long. I'm getting anxious. o_O

Whenever we get married, it'll still be in Orlando. :P

OMG, Pavarotti died today after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.

He was 71.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

OMG, Jenna Fischer (Pam Beesly from the Office) is separating from her husband. Hmm, he wrote and directed horror movies that I don't care about (Dawn of the Dead and Slither, I suppose other people like these movies).

John Ritter died last night from a heart problem and Johnny Cash died today from complications of diabetes. :P

The voice of Captain Murphy from Sealab also died, but I don't know when or why. At least that's what Austin said.

Richard Harris is dead.

Who's gonna play Dumblebore in the other movies? :P

In other news, I'm going through my stuff and deciding what to bring back. I have a lot more posters than I remember. I forgot I had a FFVIII poster. ::grins:: I'm also deciding whether or not to bring back some old purses I have. I probably won't. I have the cutest pink Chibi-Usa lunchbox purse thing though.

I took some Benadryl for allergies and I think the sleepy side effects are um, affecting me. So this will be short. Night.

Questions for Phyllis Reynolds Naylor, here's one I found interesting...

Q. I just had a question. Do u ever feel embarrassed when you're writing about "that stuff"? (you know) I mean, like the editors- do they ever ask you to change anything? I really wish that you wouldn't stop Alice when she's eighteen. You should keep going! Will Patrick still be important in her life when she's 18? I just wanted to know.

A. The very, very last Alice book I write will take her from age 18 to 60, so you will know a lot more about her when that comes out. Am I ever embarrassed when I write about "that stuff"? Nope. Because "that stuff" is a very important part of life.

WAHHH! I like Patrick! It's not fair!!!!!!!! Need to wait for Simple Alice before reading Alice Alone, better come out soon damnit!
