Hurts Like Heaven

Haven't done a picture roll in a while. Also, I apologize for being away the past little while. I've been busy :)

And by busy, I mean too lazy to bother posting about my silly little life.

A really bright close-up of the beautiful roses my lovely boyfriend brought me for Valentine's Day this past Tuesday (they're actually red, but I used the flash and they came out kind of pink). Goodness, where did I find someone who genuinely cares for me, is uber-much attractive and actually thinks HE has to try really hard to keep ME around? It's like something out of a fairytale, I tell ya.

Oh, my little man. Yeah, Phoenix was really curious as to why I was taking pictures of this oddly shaped object on my roommate's desk. Obviously, I didn't know what I was doing, and needed an assistant. :)

Nuub's reaction to my picture-taking. "Really?"

I started moving the lamp around to get different light and Phoenix got scared. XD

Oh, crap. I ran out of pictures. I guess I'll have to actually talk about my life now. Man!

Okay. So I have been attempting in the past weeks to lose some weight...it hasn't worked so far, I've stayed at the same weight as when I started. At least I haven't gained anything? But I have gained some wonderful new music...Owl City and Coldplay are constantly in my head. Which  makes my head a pretty good place at the moment. Also my boyfriend is making me so persistantly happy that it's hard for me to feed my writing obsession - I always write best when I'm depressed - and I've been wanting to get back into it. My favorite poetry group on DeviantART (http://windfrost.deviantart.com/ my page, in case anyone cares) started running prompts again, and my dreams have gotten so wacky I want to start writing again. I haven't the time though - with work consuming me five days a week/eight hours a day, by the time I get home all I do is shower and sit on the couch like a lump (probably a contributing factor to why I haven't lost any weight despite attempting to diet). And now I am consumed on weekends by the boyfriend and my roommate, who seem to be still competing for my time and affection (yeesh). For example, last weekend, he was over Friday night, most of Saturday, and then my roommate and I did groceries (didn't get out till 1:30) and came home. He came back over and stayed till noon on Sunday. At that point there wasn't much else to do but go downtown and spend more money on things we didn't need to spend money on. So yeah, my time is pretty taken up these days. And this weekend there are many plans...we want to go weigh my boyfriend's bearded dragon at the clinic, but my roommate and I wanted to spend the day in Courtenay, and then do groceries. So combined with sleeping in, I have three things to do that day and will have to overlap in order to do them all, without it seeming like I'm overlapping things. Wow, what a sad life I lead.

Oh yeah, and my sister is coming back from Nanaimo this weekend so that's another thing. XD Jeez.

Also I got off work early today so I'm probably going to attempt to "work out" and then go hang out with boyfriend downtown. Right now, though, I'm going to post this crappy blog thing and listen to Coldplay. :)
