Day 09: If you only had 2 weeks to live, what would you do different with your life, if anything?

If I only had 2 weeks, well I would make sure that everyone knew how I feel about them. I would spend my last days with my family and tell my daughter that even after I am gone, I am extremely proud of her, love her like no other, will always be there with her and want her to continue working towards her dream of beginning a manga artist living in Japan. I would tell me husband that I completely forgive him for all the crap he has put me through and that I want him to find a woman (without feeling guilty) that will take care of him (while treating Raven as her own) and make him happy. I would spend those last days having the most fun with my family as I could. I would also take a trip to beat the living shit out of someone who (in my eyes) deserves it and it is long overdue. OK, maybe I would not do that last thing because I would not want my last days filled with hate but I sure in the hell would want to do it.

Day 08: Review a movie.

For today’s blog challenge I am supposed to review a movie. But since I now write for HorrorNews.net (and I recently reviewed a movie there) I’m just going to direct you to that page.

Raven started 8^th grade on Thursday August 19. Just one more year and she will be in high school. Hard to believe. She swears this year is going to suck and go by soooooo slow. I seem to be one of the few parents that did not look forward to their child going back to school.

I finally got a desk for myself. For the last few years, I have used the bed as my desk. It was not convent and kind of a pain in the ass at times. However, I never wanted to spend the money to get myself a desk. Well, this past weekend I bit the bullet and bought a small desk for $29 at Walmart. I am so glad I did. It is small but that is all I really need. I like having a place to work while having the bed open to relax and what not. The desk also gives Jedi another place to sleep.

Halloween is quickly approaching and I am getting uber excited! For the past few years, I have worked outside the home and (even though I love Halloween) was too tired to do much of anything on my days off. Well, now that I am a freelancer I can work around my own schedule instead of someone else’s and I am planning all kinds of fun Halloween stuff for us to do!

Day 07: Post a picture of a celebrity you’ve been told you look like.

For today’s blog challenge, I am going to do it a little differently. I have not heard that I look like any celebrity and when I use the My Heritage face recognition program, I get results that do not look anything like me whatsoever. Therefore, I am going to ask my lovely readers who they think I look like (celebrity wise).

Day 06: Get a guest blogger to blog this day about any topic the guest blogger wants.

The guest blogger is Katfish  from Game Over who is also my husband. Please visit his blog and show some love!

Whether I’m in PvP or PvE, I will normally be using Fel Amror. Fel Amror is the best option for DPSing but Demon Armor is better for returning health. To switch armor and use a health pot or my fel healthstone, I use a macro.

/stopcasting
/cast Demon Armor
/use Fel Healthstone

Clicking the above macro will switch armor and use your Fel Healthstone with just the one click. If you want, you could add other health items to the end of the macro, such as:

/stopcasting
/cast Demon Armor
/use Fel Healthstone
/use Runic Healing Potion

I choose not to do this because most items aren’t able to be used in PvP arenas. One problem about I hear about with putting mutlible items to be used in the macro is: “I don’t really want to use every healing option I have all at once”. It actually depends on your situation I guess. I’ve been in a life or death situation where I really needed to blow my Healthstone and Healing potion together. For the most part I really don’t need to though.

Using the macro here will give you more health back then if you was still in Fel Armor when the Healthstone was used. Of course you would be using a little mana to switch armors, but to me I feel the small lose in mana is worth it.

Day 05: Post a picture of your window view.

I have two windows in our bedroom so I’m posting both. The view on the left is part of the driveway. The rocks are supposed to be placed throughout the drive way. That’s Raven’s bike towards the right of the picture. The view on the right is the other window in our bedroom. It’s a view of the backyard.

I’ve come to the conclusion that I don’t care. She can talk shit about us all she wants. The people that she tells this too and believes her I don’t really care about them anyway. They don’t contact me or have anything to do with me or my daughter so why should I care about what they think. So, she can run her mouth as much as she wants. It just shows how pathetic she is.

I cannot believe that is all ready April! In a mere four days I will be 30 … yes I said it . . . . 30 years old! Wow! Time just seems to fly by lately and that really isn’t a good thing. With certain aspects of my life either stalling or not working out at all I need time to stop. Just long enough to get things back on track. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can get it back on track. It derailed years ago and there seems to be too much damage to fix it. I hope I am wrong, but deep down, I know I am right. It sucks but what can I do.

When do you start calling yourself a professional and when do people start taking you seriously? I always thought that if you are getting paid for performing the service or work then you are considered a professional.

The people around me beg to differ.

I work from home as a freelance writer and photographer. When people find out that I quit my previous job as a medical receptionist to pursue my true passion of photography (while doing freelance writing to supplement my income) they make snide remarks (with an up turned nose) and hint around that I don’t have a real job.

Excuse me?

I am paying bills, rent and buying groceries with the money I make from my “fake” jobs. People are paying me to photograph them, while a reputable business (which I had to send a resume to with writing samples before being hired) are paying me to write articles. How is that fake? I get a W2 from the freelance work and have to pay taxes on all income I receive from both the photography and writing. I also have a business license for my photography.

So will someone please tell me how I don’t have a real job?

Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. For his birthday we rented four blue-ray movies, went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse and then made a quick stop at Walmart. While we where leaving Walmart, I stopped at the quarter machines and bought 3 mustaches. We had some fun with them. They where so worth the 50 cents each that I paid for them.

Welp, we finally got our new TV. We got a 47″ Philips from Sam’s and I love it. We have gone a few months without a working television since our 32″ Toshiba died on us so it’s nice to finally be able to watch television on a TV instead of watching it online. We also picked up a Blue-Ray player that has the Netflix streaming capability. That feature is absolutely wonderful! I love being able to stream Netflix’s watch instantly to our television.

I also made a special trip out yesterday to pick up SyFy’s Alice. It was released on DVD yesterday and I just had to have it. I waited months for it to come out and I couldn’t wait any longer. I spent last night watching it and trying not to drool all over my laptop when Andrew-Lee Potts (who plays Hatter) was on screen. He is just completely adorable.
