Alrighty, if you aren't already there and want to be, or just want to say good things about me, e me and I'll send you an invitation.

Friday Five

OOH! I forgot about this! *grin* Ok, here goes, from The Friday Five -

1. What is your favorite childhood memory?

Dang, it's really sad that it's taking me so long to figure this out...I don't *think* I had an unhappy childhood...and when do we count 'childhood' ending? In a lot of ways, I'm still very much a child, even though I'm 27, heh. Ok, lets say that childhood ended at 12. I guess it would have to be sitting on my front porch, during a summer storm, in the porch swing, reading a book. I can still hear the 'clinkclink...clink clinkclink...clink' of the chains on the porch swing. Every so often I'll try and visualize that when I'm trying to relax. I can usually get it pretty good, especially the rocking sensation of the swing.

2. If you could be reincarnated as anything besides human, who would you want to be?

Oh, this one is easy. I've always said that I wanted to come back as someone's pet ferret. Lots of buddies to snuggle down with for long, 16 hour naps, and then the rest of the time spent eating and bouncing around playing, heh.

3. If you had to start your life all over, what are three things you would change?

Aaaah, shit. This one's hard, because if I had made ONE decision differently, my whole life would have changed. If I hadn't stayed with Asshole Ex Boyfriend (AEB from here on in) then I wouldn't have gotten knocked up in the first place at 16. Then, if I had left him after I had the first, things would have been much different. After that, I probably would have never left Salt Lake City and come back home to Michigan.

It's not that I regret my decisions, (or my kids, at ALL!) or that my life has turned out badly because of the decisions I did make, but I do believe I *should* have done things differently.

4. If you had to forget everything in your life, except one thing, what would it be?

I would not forget that there are people that love and support me.

5. Do you have a lucky charm?

ALWAYS AFTER ME LOUCKY CHARMS!! Heh. Honestly? I don't think so. I'd like to, and I do have items that are definitely 'charged' with different emotions, but I can't say that something I have is 'luckier' than anything else. Maybe I'll try and change that. :)

Till 'next time.. :)

Hate that...

I can't stand it when I'm having an otherwise spectacular day, and ONE PERSON can ruin my mood for me entirely. I'm starting to wonder if I even really need this person in my life. All I get from them is aggro and bullshit anymore, mainly because said person just refuses to put my feelings and wants in the forefront *on occasion*. I most definitely don't expect it all the time, but I do it for them almost every time it's necessary, and frankly, it's wearing a little thin. There's not enough reciprocity in our relationship.

We'll see how it goes. This person is very important to me, very special, but they've changed. And I don't like what I'm seeing. *sigh*.

I'm a blog killer...

It seems that every time I start to read a blog, they stop posting. It happened with In Passing, Pamie, Tomato Nation, and a slew of others. Now, it might be just coincidence, but I feel like I'm a blog bane, heh.

Hee! I'm Lady Juby Blogsbane! (Oy, can you tell I was just at an SCA event? *snort*)

Hey! LOOK! Comments! And I did it all by myself! Yay me! LOL...

HEEEE!!!

THIS has just been bumped up to my next Netflix shipment. I ::heart:: Bruce Campbell!

*excellent* night... :)

I love nights like this. Went to go help set up for Crown Tourney, and ended up going to Denny's (the infamous "ToddRobbery" Denny's, but that's another story, heh.) with Vlachus and Dolce. I ::heart:: them.. :) So easy to talk to, just like the rest of Brackendelve that I've found, and just a lovely evening. :) They *like* me, they REALLY *LIKE* me!!

Then, I get home, and what do I find in my inbox? A quick e-mail from the heretofore seemingly disinterested by way of lack of contact Interesting Boy! *grin*. As I had suspected, nay, hoped, things have just been hellishly busy for him, it's not that he's trying to get away from the clutches of evil stalker Juby, heh. *yay*. This makes me happy. :)

Life is good. :)

So many new things to do!

But so little time. I'm hoping things will change this summer, when DX can take the kids for longer on weekday evenings, but right now, I really feel like I'm missing out on some of the way cool things that Brackendelve is doing. The Herbal Guild, for one, meets on Wednesday for garden planning, and Tiernan's house where it's going to be is within 10 minutes of my house, but I don't think I'll be there because I really want to be at the actual Herbal Guild/Canton Business meeting on Thursday, and don't want to drop off the 'lets with DX on both days, *maybe* one, because I really feel like it's putting DX out to have them on an unscheduled day. Plus, I wouldn't be getting home till about 10, and that's later than they should be out on a school night. I *could* ask my mom if she'd pick them up after she gets out of work, but I, again, don't want to feel like I'm putting her out, asking her to get them off to bed and all that.

Then there's project night, on Monday nights, but that's out in Hamtramck, about a 45 minute drive...that's where we would get together and help eachother out with things like sewing garb (which I really NEED to do, I've been wearing loaner garb for what seems like too long!) and other projects we're working on.

Hopefully this summer it won't be too much of a problem. *sigh*. I'd like to ask Tiernan if it would be a problem if I bring them with, but they're a lot of kids, heh. Plus, that whole bedtime issue. Man, this sucks.

Spawn and The Cell

When I get movies from Netflix, I try to rent similar titles, movies with *something* in common, be it plot elements, or visual styles. I've seen The Cell, and LOVED it. It's an excellent movie, visually spectacular. The colors and the textures are so rich, I could watch that movie over and over and not get sick of it. Vincent D'Onofrio is fabulous, you try to hate him, but you just can't, and I hate to say it, but even J. Ho does a pretty good job, even though she's not NEARLY as faceted as the Vinces (Vaughn and D'Onofrio). I knew I wouldn't be dissapointed in it at all, and... just *wow*.

I rented Spawn with it, because I have such a deep respect and adoration of Comic Books. I've always loved Spawn's costume, the cape has always fascinated me. Even when it's drawn, as a still comic book frame, it's got such *movement*. I have to say that that's the ONE part of the movie that I wasn't COMPLETELY dissapointed in. Gaaah. Just sucks to see a comic slaughtered like that, you know? The characters were *awful* and it really sucked not to have someone to heckle it with, heh. THAT would have made the movie a zillion times better, *grin*.

So, that was my night. Damn, I live an exciting life, don't I?

Juby has returned!

Because I think a very dear friend of mine would have died, gasping and choking, with the words TOO.PERFECT on her dying lips.

But no, I can't say I'll be any more interesting than before, heh. There's stuff here that I want to cut and paste from both my oldold blog, and jubilicious.org, and new stuff.

Life is...interesting. *grin* Had a few weeks of absolute fabulousness that I'm hanging on to for dear life, and realized a lot about myself. For the most part, things are good. :) Met an interesting Boy, who, oddly enough, seems to be avoiding me, but maybe he's just busy. Was thinking about calling him tonight, but what would I say if I got his voice mail? "Hey you... are you feeling stalked yet?" LOL, now that I think of it, that might not be a bad line, heh.

Getting involved with the SCA (edited - OH MY GOD, I'm an idiot and didn't see the stupid linkie thing up there. Crimeny, I must have been tired.) and that's been a trip. Everyone in my canton are simply darling. :) I'm completely geeked about this weekend, Crown Tournament and developing my Romany (Gypsy) persona, and just generally hanging out with some *very* nifty people. Plus, the waist cinching boob lifting and displaying bodice is much fun to wear, heh.

So yeah. Links forthcoming, old and new content forthcoming, perhaps even comments. And what do you think, think I should register gigglebitch.net?
