Welcome to my quirky & cute, random & whimsical, artsy-crafty, sometimes crazy, monkey-mess of a world...

YouTube videos....inspiration overload....

I should be in bed right now...

I'm sleepy and The Boyfriend is waiting for me...

But I HAD to wait for my external hard drive to do its compressing business...and in the meantime, why not watch some YouTube videos...?

....because I can't stop - I love seeing so many projects and ideas!  (and it TOTALLY beats 16 and Pregnant and DOG: The Bounty Hunter.)

Also, everybody is SO encouraging and supportive of MY videos...THANK YOU!!!

It gives me a welcoming sense of community that is kinda foreign to me...It also makes me feel like the stuff I make is worth "advertising," even if it isn't anything terribly interesting.

Life is so freaking hard...every day is a new battle (I used to say "challenge," but it's much harder than that.)  All your nice comments and messages mean so much to me!

I'm being very cheesy - sorry.  It's 2:32 AM - I don't think you can blame me.

My original point was going to be that I *look* at so many inspiring things....It paralyzes me. 

I want to do it ALL. 

I want to do it all PERFECTLY.


And, if I can't dot it PERFECTLY, I don't want to do it at all.

My mom likes to tell me how annoying my perfectionism has always been so I think I'm stuck with it...

I also don't know what exactly I WANT to do.

If you don't know what you want....it's pretty much impossible to get *it* - you don't just stumble upon your meaning in life.

In other news, I am working on knitting a blanket - the "Blue Lagoon" color pattern.  Thanks to my mom, I was able to order the rest of the yarn I need from Joann.com today.

I'm also making a warsh-rag for The Boyfriend in Lily's 100% cotton yarn - in red and black cause he's a  * rock star *   and that's his band's colors...I guess.

By the way, I'm not the greatest girlfriend on Earth - and although I'm SURE he's the greatest drummer EVER...his music doesn't do much for me...but he seems to like me anyway.

I'm working on birthday/going away presents for my BFF and her family as well...before they ABANDON ME!!!!! 

(I'm still in my "anger" phase of grieving.  Harrumph.)

Besides that stuff - and a gazillion other in progress projects - I'm reading Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life and liking it a lot!
