Hold me when I'm here...
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
Love me when I'm gone
- Three Doors Down, "When I'm Gone"
This morning, I spent three hours in Surreal's Inbox, taking over one hundred emails and turning them into various web pages. Needless to say, it was a very tedious task. I sort of enjoyed it, though, for reasons beyond me. It's odd - I'm finally starting to enjoy and sometimes even crave updating the aforementioned shrine. It's so fun, and I love all the feedback I get.
It's my baby. Now all I have is Surreal, and Mollywood DESIGNS. MD is a graphic design site, where people fill out a little form and I make them a graphic to their specifications. I was working on other sites and my personal site, Fading Into Dreams, previously. But both sites closed and I shut down FiD. I fully intend on re-opening eventually, though. Oh! And Silent-Fear Lyrics! How could I forget? I love that site, even though I've been a bad girl when it comes to updating regularily.
Today I did chores. Lots of them. I did the dishes, washed all of my laundry (there's always tons; I tend to change clothes multiple times a day), and vaccummed the entire house and couches. My mom and I then hoisted all of the furniture out of the living room and cleaned the carpets with one of those funky machine things you rent.
Tomorrow - when it's dry - I'm going to completely rearrange the furniture and then set up the Christmas tree! Wooo!
I get a little excited when it's time to set up the tree. I feel all jolly and stuff. ^^ But this year is extra-super-fucking-cool, because I got to pick out a tree, and all of the ornaments. It's cool because I picked a fake pine-looking tree that's already pre-lit. Since the lights it comes with are sort of golden, I chose completely silver and gold ornaments and garland. *squeals* It's going to look so sexy!
So yeah, I'm very excited about that. ^.~ Hmm. I cleaned my room, as well, but cleaning my room simply involves making my bed and putting away the clothes and CDs that are strewn everywhere. I've discovered that I actually enjoy vaccumming (while listening to my diskman and belting out various songs), and I also uploaded a shitload of pictures. Pictures of my room (if you want to see my room tour, rewind by one entry), and random screencaps from The Sims, which I'll post 'cause I'm a dork. There are captions below each picture, plus mouseover captions. Because, as I've stated, I'm a dork.

That's Amy (Lita), on the guitar, jammin' hardcore. That's Matt, checking her out. And look! It's a Christmas tree! Yayness!

This is little cyber-Amy and cyber-Matt grooving to Theory Of A Deadman. Yes, I rigged the game to play my MP3's. Is it just me or does Amy look deformed? My friend can actually do that, pull her arms over her head and down into a full circle completely. It's really quite disturbing.

After their grooving session, they went into the rec room (Yes, the house has a rec room: STOP LAUGHING!) to cheer on ickle Jeff, who is playing a really dweeby-looking piano.

In this picture, Amy and Matt are swimming. I only included it because I think Sims are SO cute when they swim. Aww.
Yay for Sim-ness. And just to be random:

LOOK AT MY SLIPPERS! Are they not the sexiest slippers in existance? You know you want them. Hee. I'm such a freak.
