Where does the time go?

Greetings,

In the car this morning coming home from running errands, I had the strangest conversation....with myself. It went something like this:
"Yeah know, you really need to update your blog. It's sadly out of date."
"I know."
"Seriously, you need to update your blog!"
"I know but, what will I blog about?"
"All things new and exciting?"
"Like what?"
"I don't know! What's new and exciting in your life?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"Nope, nothing."
"Oh come one! There has to be something!"
"Nope, nothing."
"What about work?"
"What about it?"
"Anything new and exciting there?"
"Nope."
"Nope?"
"Nope."
"What about with the family after all, school just started. Any new drama?"
"Nope."
"Nope??"
"Nope."
"Well."
"Well."

Ghosts

Isn't it sweetly strange when you have a person that is in your past and you just can't get that person out of your heart or head? Even after time goes by, you still think of that person and perhaps what might of been or questioning yourself if it ever really was. Those are bitter-sweet memories. I am not really sure if I like them or not.
It's especially difficult if there was an unresolved end to the relationship...whatever that relationship may or may not have been. Sometimes, the not knowing is simply the worst there is. How can you even learn a lesson if you don't know what went wrong or why? It just plain hurts and it's a hurt that scars and never ends.
That's really all I can say on this for now...it's still raw after all this time.

Update

Hello...
Well, the 'new' job is going ok. I mean, it's not my dream job but, it pays the bills. Speaking of dream jobs...what would be your dream job? As for me, well, can you get paid for playing WOW (World of Warcraft)? I don't think so. That would be my dream job! lol to play and play and play. Yes, I am addicted, I freely admit it; I need WOWAholics Anonymous! I even named my Guild that but, I got flagged for an inappropriate/non-rp (role playing) name. What that means is, I had to change it. :O( Anyway, I digress...yes, I would be a billionaire if I got paid to play!
I love playing WOW more than anything, yes, I said anything!
When you first join WOW you have to choose a side, Alliance or Horde. I chose Alliance so to me, the Horde are the bad guys. I play a Night-Elf, Druid and my jobs are skinning and tailoring...I also do fishing and cooking. If you played, you would know what I meant. My level currently is a 64, half way to 65. Her name is Amariese. I used that name some years ago to do online free-style role playing. What that means basically is a group of us did role playing in the form of posting to each other in a specially designed site. It was called Flatearth and I LOVED it! I lived at the Skulking Orc Inn...I miss those days. The Inn and Flatearth have long since gone but my heart will ever remain with the Inn...and those I played with there. Sometimes I wonder where they are, how they are doing and if they also play WOW. I bet they do. :O) Anyway, Amariese now lives on the Cenarion Circle (server on WOW) and spends her time questing, leveling, doing dungons and working her craft(s). There is never enough time for her to get everything she wants to do done!
I also have a Gnome, Anomie, a DK (Death Knight) and yes, I have a Blood-Elf (Horde) but she isn't leveled at all.
I love all my girls.
I play my main most, Amariese, and I have a wonderful friend that I play with...Stella...lol We have so much fun it's ridiculous! My family plays too but, they don't play the same way I do and so they really don't care to play with me so much. They are more...structured if you will, in their game style. Me, I am all over the place willy-nilly...just like I am in real life! Sometimes I just fish and run around. It all depends on my mood.
Yes, I really am Amariese....hummmm....

Till next time...

Update

Finally, Finally!! After months, I got a new job!! Wooohooo!! I will be doing research for a medical billing/processing place. Not glamorous or wonderful but, I GOT A JOB! LOL I will be starting on June 1st so, wooohooo!
I have been neglecting my place here. I am sorry for that and I think about it alot. It's just that so many things have been happening in real life that there has been no time for online life. Well, not totally true cause I am wildly addicted to World of Warcraft but, for other things, no. :O) I simply came to a point in my life that I...changed. Kinda shifted gears. I used to live for creating and blogging and now, well, I don't. I don't create any more. Oh, I am sure I will again, I still get those urges from time to time but, for the most part, I don't have the old creative muse. I spend way more time with my family so, I guess it's all for the best. The whole family for the most part plays WOW and it's something we share and enjoy! It's truly a family affair! :O)
Anyway, just wanted to pop in with this update.

Blessings to you all....

A HUGE thing

After many long months of debate with myself, last week I did something I really never thought I would do... I closed my PSP (PaintShop Professional) list down. It was called Whimz & Wishez aka WW. Well, the members of the list were for the most part, very supportive and are trying to actually keep it open under new ownership, with my blessing.
I just couldn't do it any more. After 6+ years of owning/running WW, I was just plain tired. I have been doing psp for more than 8 years and I guess I really am burned out on it. I am sure that I will create from time to time but the creative Muse hasn't been around for sometime now. I figured it was time to concentrate on other things and I am actually enjoying not having to worry about other people for a change! :O)
I have been really busy with WOW (World of Warcraft) and have become totally addicted to it! I guess that is where my heart and passion lie now. I simply LOVE it! I am a Guild Master now with a very small group but, I really hope to expand. I have plans! LOL
Right now I play 2 characters: A level 51 Druid and a level 23 Gnome. LOL I love them both! There is so much to do with WOW I will never be able to do it all! And guess what...there are tons of women AND Grandmas that play!! It is awesome stress relief, something you can share with friends and family and well, just plain addicting!! If you ever wondered what all the hype is about, drop me a note and I will gladly share my love of WOW with you! Or, if you already play, come find me at the WOWaholics Anonymous guild! :O) I would love to meet you/see you in game! If you need a referal for a free month of game time, let me know and I will see about hooking you up with that as well!
Trust me...once you play, you will fast become addicted to all the fun adventures you can have!! This week's event is Children's Week and I am off to try to get my pet: Egkbert! LOL

Till next time.....
