A day in the life 7.2

Ohhhh...I am cranky! On the 1-10 pain scale with 1o being "Getting out of bed isn't even an option today" and 1 being "Dressing in a little pinafore and singing The Hills Are Alive..."



I'm right about 7.2 today. My body is screamin' at me to get the hell off the laptop and eat and then rest whilst I immerse myself in an America's Next Top Model marathon. The reason I'm NOT resting, eating, and melting my brain with bad reality TV? Well....I am part of something really special, so mentally, I'm yodeling'!!!



New Media has become my new best friend. Because of a well loved and very funny comic strip that these brilliant men created with their hands and stories that brought relatability to all ages,
then there is the brilliant husband and wife that took it to a new level, the actors (this is where I come in) that brought the words to life, and the brilliant sound engineer that worked his magic, we made a comic strip come to life, and gave Jeremy and his friends and family in "Zits" a voice and movement.

I am so proud to be a part of it! Oh, by the way, I'm the voice of Jeremy's mother, Connie

A new one every Monday!

Putting my toes in the water

The first little piggy was a chat roomer.

The second little piggy was a Forum poster.

The third little piggy was a MySpacer.

The fourth little piggy was a FaceBooker.

The last little piggy? Went wee, wee, wee, all the way to Blogger-Ville!

While I'm not exactly new to Blogging, (I did a handful on MySpace and found it to be quite cathartic) I was hesitant to start what I consider to be real blogging because I wasn't quite sure where I fit in. Every time I got directed to a Blogger page, I was pretty impressed with the professional look of it. My hesitancy grew more when I realized "Uh...my interests change at the drop of a hat...How's that going to look on a blog?"

It wasn't until an hour ago that I decided to finally take the plunge, even if it is just my toes for now. Besides, I made sure that my blog title explained what kind of shtuff to expect.

I'm a thirty*cough*six year old woman, married for the past 16 years to the love of my life, with three of the craziest, funniest, most lovable, and spoiled Cracker Cats (James Herriot reference here) you could ever meet. I'm a Professional Voice Over Actress,(Yes! That really is a career and I LOVE it) I dabble in Scrap booking/crafty shtuff, I love reading, movies, music, and TV, TV, TV, and did I mention TV? The Wonder Hubby and I are AVID travellers, foodies, wine-o's, photographers, video gamers, iPhone owners, and Home Theatre enthusiasts. I'm an orchid lovah, but can't grow them to save my, or more importantly, their life. I'll blog about that shtuff, for sure.

I also suffer from Complex Pain Disorder and resulting fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is actually a description of the type of pain, not an actual diagnosis.) I'm on meds for it, and am trying to get out from underneath very debilitating pain that has robbed me of a lot of my goals...no, wait...It's DELAYED the achievement of my goals. I'll blog about my progress on that, too.

I'll blog about our upcoming holiday in December. We're sailing on the Celebrity Infinity (in a SUITE!! omg, omg, omg!!!) from Ft. Lauderdale to Chile through the Panama Canal and then we're taking an extra 4 days to visit Machu Picchu!!!! I am SO blogging about that because it's fulfilling 3 dreams in one shot. Panama Canal, New Continent, and Machu freakin' Picchu.

I'm also spearheading an incredible celebration for the Wonder Hubby's and mine 20th wedding anniversary. 4 and a half years away, you say? Well, that's true, but planning it keeps me very focused on a task, which in turn helps me deal with my more pain filled days. Let me just say this, 15th century Scottish Castle just feet from the ocean, 30-50 of our nearest and dearest staying at said 15th century Scottish Castle for 4-5 days, Falconry, clay pigeon shooting, golfing, Archery, boating, fly fishing, incredibly meaningful ceremony honoring each other and those that helped make us who we are...I could go on, but, you guessed it, I'll save it for another blog or two, or 50.

Sometimes, I find odd things, hear funny shtuff, (BTW, "Shtuff" is a Mutts comic strip reference, my typing doesn't have a lithp) and will most definitely get a bee in my high strung, type A, gently sardonic *snort*, bonnet.

Eclectic Esoterica full of Sarcasm and Quirkiness...yep, that totally explains what's in my brain!
