Busy for me.

Hi ya.

It seems that I've done an update just about everywhere but here.

I updated two/three of my sites and places.

I'm going strong still with taking photos. I even have some up for sale if you think you would want it hanging on your wall, or as puzzle if you felt like doing that. But I don't expect that to be happening anytime soon. What I really want is for my wallpaper to be liked, commented on and downloaded for use.

I have managed to make quite a few good ones to tell the truth. I've was doing a lot of plants and flowers and thought that was wrong. I'm in the city for crying out loud. And not just any city, New York. I have to show the buildings and the streets and the subway.

So I've been doing that lately, but hopefully not like most people. I've mostly being taking shots of the sides, corners and tops with views of, what we call, the sky.

I started to do it that way at first just because most of us never look up. When you do, the same block that you have been walking down for years looks complete new to you.

Example.

I think it's rather nice. This is not a wallpaper by the way. This is a pic for hanging on your wall or something like that.

Besides praising or cursing out my cam, I've been writing.

That story that I use to talk about is now up to chapter 59. I'm working my way through it now. I know I should be further, but I took a break to change the pace and I did a story under a theme for a website for pay. I sent it off to them at least a week or so ago, but I haven't heard back from them. I didn't expect to hear from them yet anyway. I'm sure they are busy. I was looking for feed back before I sent it off to them, so I posted it up over Deviantart and crossed my fingers. I got one real comment and one smiley face. I though the smiley face was meant to be a sly happy grin, but I'm not sure. Very few people knew how to or bothered to download the whole story to read it.

Also, over at my story bank website. That is where I hold mostly all of my stories on line. I fixed up a few of the stories that I had there, along with uploading my newest that I'm waiting to hear back from the site about.

When that was done, I was hit by a story idea involving Ron and Herminome From Harry Potter. It was meant to be just a one shot with an odd ending, but someone asked about a chapter two, so after thinking about it for a while I wrote one like two days ago, and uploaded it to Fanfiction this morning. I had to rename the first chapter that I posted before and give the whole story a new name. So now the name of the story is "Couples Conflict". The first chapter is call 'Brothers' and the new second one is call 'Library Mice'. The last one is called 'Resolved'. I'm still writing it.

This same morning before I got to the good part ... BTW, I got 98 hits for my story today and two reviews along with one notice of the story being watched. *grin*...

Like I was saying. This morning I didn't jump out of bed when my alarm went off and the girl came over at 7:30 when I was in the shower. I'm not going to get into that, but when it came time to leave I couldn't find my 'new' 30 day, $81 metro card. I had to borrow my sister's unlimited to take the girl to school because I couldn't stay any longer to look for mine.

I took the train today and came back more or less quickly. Normally I would take my cam with me and take pictures and come back home like 2 hours later, but I wanted to find my card and do the dishes before my mom came home.

I came back and I found a card, but I had to go back to the subway to see if it was my card. I half didn't think that it was my card because it already had wear marks on it, and I didn't remember it having any. So I put on my mp3 player and walked up there slowly because I didn't sleep on my back last night and this morning it hurt. I got there and I had to swipe it twice before swiping it again to make sure what it said. Then I still gave it to the teller for them to tell me for sure, that it was my unlimited month card. It was and I came home a whole lot happier then when I left.

Ok...that's it. You have caught up. :)

I'll try and post something sooner next time....Oh, one more thing.

I did my hair at home last week. I didn't have the money to go to the salon and the straight only cost me $6 and I got an olive moisture to go with it because I didn't want to use too much of the grease and weight down my hair. So my hair has been curly for a few days now. Each day the curls go away bit by bit. In two more days it will almost be straight. At the start the curls were really tight and now it's something of a loose wave. I like how it is now more than before because you can see the length of my hair.

Now you are caught up. :)

See ya.

As you can see, I've been a little busy.

For three days I've taken the girl next door to school and afterwards I've gone walking with my camera to get something interesting to share. Those above are the ones from yesterday. I have a whole new section over at Deviantart to hold my photos.

I was even able to get a new yaoi wallpaper done. I've been wanting to do one for a while, but I couldn't find the kind of shot I was hung up on finding. But someone said that they wanted something sexy, so I just did one that broke a few 'rules' for me.

I'm going to see about getting three pictures posted today. At least one will be a wallpaper. I only got 10 photos taken this morning because I forgot the card for my cam, so I use internal storage. So I'll be going out later to get some more pics. Yesterday I took just over 100 to make sure I had a few good ones.

Since this is my official blogging place, I'll let you know that I spent $45 that I really didn't have on a book and a Barns & Noble's book store member ship. I didn't get the one that I posted here earlyer, and I didn't get the one that I had in my hand at the time. Instead, what did I get? A collection of gay erotica. It's suppose to be the best of 2008. I didn't tell my mom this ofcourse. I just said that for some unknown reason I got a membership at the store for $25.

In a few months, I hope to go back and get the one that I saw that was from 2007. Why am I getting them? Well at first, I got this one to see how I messured up to reconized work. The first two sounded like I could have writen it. The second one I would have liked to be a bit longer. I'll go back to re-read the ending to make sure I didn't miss it because I was trying to not let the old lady with her grandson across from me on the bus see what I was reading.

I have been given a new task as I sit here thinking a number of compleatly unreated things. Mom wants me to make the green sesioning for her. She got the stuff, cleaned them and even cut some down into large chunks. Now I have to blend and chop them down twice. I told her I'm not doing the onions. I can't cut onions without burning my eyes out.

Something sweet as I leave you.

For the past two days I've used marshmallow fluff to make rice cripy treats for the past two days. It was made with the crispy rice knock off from Pathmark along with puffed wheat. I like it.

Well, got to go. Take care, and don't forgot to swing by my gallery over at deviant art. :)

I want this book but I need $20 more. :(

Guess where I am?

====================================

I was in the rain, between a place called Sakcett St and Union Street, in Red Hook in a down pour of rain. When I got home I was so tired and cold that I went right to bed under a layer of sheet and another belonging to a comforter.

Why was I even there in the first place is a better question. Mother. She wanted to look for a new computer desk that can fit into the corner. The one have is now only using physics to keep it up. The principals of an arch are in use as far as I can see. We went to IKIA and the shot/photo was taken on our way back, trying to catch the B71.

I checked the bus map before we went to get it, but it seems that the one I was looking at hadn 't been updated to show that it was route had been changed. I don't know if the route has be changed for good or just because of construction or something else. Either way, we had to walk a block to find the new stop and then wait for a bus to show up.

No, we didn't get the desk. We more less settled for one, but we have to meassure the space now. The brought back a sheet that told the dimenshions of the desk. While we were there, we had a look at the desk that Phillys said that she was willing to buy for me for $99 once I said I wanted it. I have yet to get have draws to put my cloths away in. I just have them folded on a box behind the door now.

Well, see ya.
