Happy HalloNovember First...

Friday, November 01, 2013

Happy Halloween…… wait, Happy November 1^st! Wow where did the time go? Survived Halloween, although that’s not really all that surprising. Halloween’s a big deal around our house. Sephy and I took the kids trick or treating, then we dropped them off at Marcy’s for a Halloween slumber party, then Sephy and I went to the Hunted Forest my sister and Izzy were working with Cloud and Zack. I will never be able to look at Cloud the same again. I mean I knew he was girl and all, but… wow. Also, never seen Sephy laugh so hard in his life.

Anyhoo, the kids had too much candy and I had an awesome night sooo… all and all it was a good Halloween. Now on to Thanksgiving and then… dare I say it… Christmas. The one holiday I could live without. I’m beyond tired of the Christmas take over! Last night, for instance, when we took the kids over to Yuffie and Reno’s place to trick or treat, Yuffie already had Christmas lights up! And I knew it was Yuffie too cuz Reno and I have had this conversation. He’s tried so hard to convince that girl not to put up any Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving and every year she has the lights and plastic yard decorations up by mid October.

And she’s not the only one! Half my neighborhood had some sort of Christmas décor up already and the other half started today. There’s only two houses on the block not lit up now and that’s mine and Marcy’s. Even Aqua’s got Christmas stuff up!

And everyone’s talking about how much Christmas shopping they have done already, like it’s some sort of contest to see who can get though with it fastest. Me, I’m a last minute girl. The decorations go up December first, the songs start week of, and the shopping gets done two days before Christmas Day unless I’m ordering online… then it’s done before Thanksgiving, but that you can’t blame me for.

Sephy asked me today if I was going to take the Halloween décor down this week. The answer is no, it never happens before I’m ready to put the Christmas stuff up. I don’t have Thanksgiving decorations. Well that’s not true, my mother keeps giving me stuff, but I never put it out. Thanksgiving’s like my third favorite holiday behind Halloween and St. Patrick’s Day. Mom keeps threaten to come over here and decorate for Thanksgiving, but she hasn’t done it yet so I don’t know that she ever will.   

As for Sephiroth he’s back to his scheming. He take’s one night off every year and the rest of the time he’s up to something. Even when you think he’s not plotting he is. The wheels are always spinning. I chose him though and I wouldn’t change that choose for the world. That says a lot about me doesn’t it?

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Hello world! Did you have a nice Halloween? I hope so. Life’s been crazy around my house. Still trying to find a job, theatre’s kept me busy and any day off I have I’m playing video games. Lot of Pokemon and Lego Marvel going on right now. But I think I’m back on my A game… I know I’ve said that before and then I don’t write for two weeks, but I don’t have another theatre gig for awhile so maybe, if my Muse stays put, I’ll be back to writing every day… maybe. Anyhoo, Happy Halloween/Winter Solstice everyone =^_^=

Pokemon X and Y

Monday, October 14, 2013

Soooo… Pokemon, it’s been the all-encompassing thing at our house lately. We’ve got two copies of both X and Y; Loz and I have been playing Y and Kadaj and Yazoo have been playing X. I got each of the boys their own 3ds’, I got them the special Pokemon 3ds XLs. Needless to say, when Sephiroth repapered from his weekend battle with Cloud and company her found his wife and three boys sitting in the living room with our heads berried in our 3ds’. I’m farther then any of the boys, but their Pokemon are a bit stronger.  

Oh yeah, Cloud and Tifa are besties again. Hints the reason my darling husband spent the weekend battling them. Life’s all back to normal in their world.

Other then that, this weekend’s show went well, one more weekend with the kid’s theatre and I get a bit of a break. Then on to the next… good all show biz.

Another show down... and other events.

Sunday, October 06, 2013

One show done, another goes up. That’s been my weekend; the week was spent sorting out my computer. It’s been acting up recently and I can’t figure out why. I may have to have Lizzy look at it when she’s got a free minute. Don’t know when that’ll be, but until then I’ll just have to manage.

Spoke with Aqua today. Her and Terra are having a boy… can’t remember if I told you that are not. My mother always told me I’d lose my mind one day, what mind I had in the first place. Everyone thought I was crazy for marrying Sephiroth after all.

Saw Cloud, Zack and Riku at the show today too. Riku lost his first baby tooth… more like he knocked it out. Stage dived off the couch into the coffee table; bout gave Cloud a heart attack.

Talking about heart attacks, Sephiroth tried to give me one earlier last week. Showed up at home after being gone for two days with a broken nose, busted lip and a black eye. He said he was lucky that was all wrong with him after he got hit with the bus. Another stand off with Tifa and Barret… I told him he was lucky I didn’t try and brake he’s neck. He spends three weeks planning something table, fills the boys up with sugar, and then disappears for two days! I’m getting tired of Rufus calling me up everyday asking me what Sephy’s up too all the time.

On a happier note, Aranel thinks Izzy maybe pregnant. I knew it wouldn’t take those two long. I’m surprised Vincent hadn’t knocked her up already. I wish them both the best of luck. As for me, I’m going to set back and relax. First night I’ve had off in awhile and it maybe the last for awhile. So I’m going to enjoy myself.   

Opening Night

Friday, September 27, 2013

Opening night! My mother’s been driving me crazy all day. That’s the bad part about working a show your mother is in, but it’s a good show. Lizzy’s been sick. Sinus infection, ear infection, lots of fun stuff, but she’s good for the most part.

The boys are excited. They love seeing the shows I work on. Plus grandma’s in this one which has them extra excited. We’ve always been a theater family. Yazoo’s even talking about auditioning for Les Mis in November. He’s too cute, I can’t wait.

Aranel’s also looking forward to those auditions. It’s one of her favorite shows. But one show at a time, got to get though this stupid Christmas show first. I’m not big on Christmas shows. Music yes, presents… hell yes, decorating the house great family event. But I can do without the shows. That may make me weird, but I don’t care.

Not much else is going on, Sephiroth left early this morning… and he left a cupcake and a bag of sweets for each of the boys. I know I said that wouldn’t stop me, but I’m getting tired of chasing around hype up children around the house. Kairi doesn’t like it either. Every time I have to chase after the boys she kicks me. Imagine what’s she’ll be like once she’s born. If Sephy has he’s way she’ll be ruling Gaia by the time she’s five.  

Theater is my Love

Tuesday, September 24, 2013

I love tech week. The late nights, the boredom… I get that it’s a necessary evil, but I’m a pregnant woman. I can’t be up all hours of the night I can’t take it.

Aside from that, everything’s fine. Second draft of my books done, Sephiroth keeps bringing home candy. I think he’s trying to keep the boys bounced off the wall so I don’t have time to chase him around asking what he’s up to. That devious husband of mine, does he really think filling the boys full of sugar will keep me from finding out what he’s planning?

Hung out with my sister for a bit today. She’s doing well; everyone aboard the ship sends their love. They all seems so happy… not sure how I feel about this. I mean I’m happy for them, but all this lovey dovey stuff is starting to make me sick. It’s just so… cute. I think Sephy’s attitude is starting to rub off on me.

Well I best start getting ready for rehearsal tonight. I love theater… I really do.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: It’s a short chapter, but my love calls.

Sephiroth: I didn’t call you.

Me: He’s adorable isn’t he? Anywho dinner time =^_^= Happy Reading     

Crazy Week

Saturday, September 21, 2013

Here I said I was going to write in this journal more and I haven’t written in a week. Thinking back there isn’t much to report. The boys picked out there Halloween costumes. Sephiroth got into the spirit of things. He went out and bought about a thousand gils worth of Halloween decorations. Personal I think he’s doing this to get me off his case about whatever he’s planning. Not that I don’t mind all the pretty new things, but this isn’t going to stop me from finding out what he’s up to.

Yuffie’s home, thank the gods. Not that I don’t mind having Axel and Zexy around… in small doses. For the most part I think that’s part of the reason why I haven’t written all that much. It’s hard enough keeping up with my boys half the time, but keeping up with Axel alone is a full time job. I don’t know how Yuffie and Reno do it.

Izzy and Vincent are back. Aranel tells me they’ve been… busy. I’m glad that there a happy couple, but I don’t want to here about what they’re up to in the bedroom. And I sure as Hell don’t want to hear about it from my sister! What’s more, I really don’t want to hear about what Aranel and Rude have been up to.

Not looking forward to the rest of this weekend. I have to be up at seven am to help Lizzy and Ash with the lights for the next show after I have to be at the theater tonight to help take down the set I help put up a last week. Yay theater season! Now where did my darling husband run off to? 

Script

A/N: I’m going to try something a bit different today. I want to try improving my script writing some so… let me know what you think.

                                                                                                                                                                   

Sunday, September 15, 2013

Angel sits on the couch in the living room. Sephiroth is in the kitchen fixing lunch.

Angel: I should really consider avoiding working shows where ninety percent of the cast is under the age of twenty.

Sephiroth: You should avoid doing to much for awhile as it is.

Angel: Don’t start (she stands and walks to the kitchen) It’s not going to kill me to work lights for the next few shows.

Sephiroth: What about working GE?

Angel: I’m not going to be up on a ladder. Lizzy has already asked Ash to do that part.

Loz and Kadaj run though the backdoor. Kadaj has a cut on his forehead.

Kadaj: Momma! Loz hit me with that sward of his!

Loz: It’s called a Bat’leth and I didn’t mean to.

Angel: Let me see. (She bends down to get a better look at the cut) Loz go get the Neosporin and the band-aids.

Kadaj: The ones with the skulls on ‘em.

Loz: Fine… (he turns towards the bathroom) picky…

Angel: (shaking her head) Does it hurt?

Kadaj: It’s fine mamma. Can I shoot Loz with an arrow?

Angel: No, you may not.

Kadaj stomps his foot.

Angel: Don’t give me that attitude!

Loz returns with the Neosporin and band-aids.

Angel: Thank you (she takes the Neosporin from Loz)

Kadaj: Can I at least hit him momma?

Angel: No Kadaj.

Loz: Can I go back outside?

Sephiroth: Go tell your brother lunch is ready.

(Loz runs out the backdoor. Angel finishes tending to Kadaj)

Angel: There you are. (She kisses the band-aid on Kadaj’s forehead) Take a set little one.

Kadaj props his bow and arrow up against the backdoor and sat down at the breakfast table. Angel and Sephiroth begin serving lunch as Loz and Yazoo come though the backdoor.

Yazoo: Hello mother.

Angel: Ready for lunch Yaz?

Yazoo: Can I eat in the TARDIS? I was in the middle of a chapter.

Angel: You can eat with the rest of us then go back to your book. It won’t kill you to have a social live no matter what your Aunt Aranel may tell you.

Loz: or Aunt Isdela.

Sephiroth: Still can’t believe her and Vincent are married now…

Angel: Don’t you start mopping again. They’re as happy as could be and I won’t have you messing that up for them.

Angel places plates down in front of Loz and Yazoo. Sephiroth sits down with his own plate.

Kadaj: Where’s mine?

Sephiroth: Your mother’s getting it.

Angel: (Rolling her eyes) Weren’t you just saying I should take it easy.

Sephiroth: I cooked

Angel: Don’t know why it every surprises me. (she returns to the kitchen for her and Kadaj’s lunch)

Loz: Dad…

Sephiroth: What?

Loz: Can I ask Zack or Cloud to give me lessons in sword fighting?

Sephiroth: Why? I could just as easily teach you that.

Angel: It’s a Bat’leth Sephy not a seven foot Katana. (She places Kadaj’s lunch down in front of him and takes her seat) Zack or Cloud would be a better teacher. The Buster sword is closer to a Bat’leth than Masamune.

Sephiroth: Just because there are neighbors doesn’t mean that they’re no longer my enemies. Cloud did try to kill me once.

Angel: But he didn’t. And now you’re a husband and a father.

Sephiroth: Which is why I would like this opportunity to teach my son.

Angel: He needs to learn how to handle the thing first. (She turns to Loz) You can ask them when they get back from Midgar next week.

Loz: Thanks momma.

Sephiroth sighs and the family continues lunch. It’s quite for the rest of the time.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: I may try to do a few more like this. Being back in theater makes me think in script sometimes lol. Leave a like and let me know what ya think. Happy Reading =^_^=        

Long Time...

Wednesday, September 11, 2013

My my my, it has been awhile. I must be better about keeping up with these journal entries. Let’s see… what have I been up to.

While, Sephy surprised me with a vacation… I know way out of left field. He said I had been too stressed out what with writing my book and the kids and all the theater stuff I’ve been doing. I didn’t even realize how right he was until I had none of that to deal with. Guess I should take it easier.

Speaking of theater, I’ve jumped right back into it. Oh how I’ve missed it so. Although my darling husband thinks I should lay off for a bit. He maybe right about the running crew/building sets part of it, but I could still do lighting… okay working the board. I’m going to miss claiming up and down that ladder.

Anyhoo, I final got to meet Kitty. My last show was in Midgar and Yuffie could wait to introduce me. Have to say the girl was right; Kitty has Rufus whipped. Good thing too, he needs a good woman in his life. Although he did ask me if I could keep a closer eye on Sephiroth. I don’t know what he expects me to do! It’s hard enough keeping tabs on the boys more less their darling father.

Speaking of the boys… none of them are speaking to each other at the moment. It only worries me because they haven’t said a word to each other in a week. Normal they have things worked out by this point, but whatever they’re mad at each other for this time… I don’t mind the piece and quite it’s just… odd. I’ve tried to get them to talk things out, find out what’s going on, but they won’t talk to me. Maybe Sephy can get them to tell him… or maybe that’s a bad idea.

Oh well, thinks never stay peaceful at my house for long. Which for whatever reason reminds me that Izzy and Vincent’s wedding is this Friday. Yeah, Friday the thirteenth. Only those two… Gods that means I have to go dress shopping! I hate dress shopping… I hate dresses. I’m not a dressy person. And don’t even get me started on the boys. Yazoo will dress up. Izzy asked him to be the ring barrier. But Loz and Kadaj… I’ll spend an hour and a half trying to get them ready. It’s going to be an all day thing. I’m not even going to try and get Sephiroth to go. He’ll just complain the whole time.

I’ve giving myself a headache. Guess I better go lay down before Sephy bust though the door and tells me to stop stressing myself out.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: I’m back!

Sephiroth: Joy…

Me: I’ve missed writing. Good news, I think I’ve gotten over my writers block. Going to try and get back in the swing of things. My end up being an every other day entry for awhile.

Ego: What! Why?

Me: While I have a set to paint tomorrow morning, covering rehearsal tomorrow night, who knows how the weekend will go. Have another show coming up that I’ll be working one way or another, show after that I’m producing…

Muse: It’s theater season. It’s why we have an unfinished story and don’t write as often.

Me: And I love theater too much to quit, don’t even ask.

Ego: I wasn’t going to.

Sephiroth: I was.

Me: Yep, saw that on coming. Speaking of unfinished stories, anyone who’s read though Devil Trigger and has some ideas. Feel free to throw ‘em at me. I’d like to get that one finished up. I know how it’s going to end, but I need some help getting from point A to point B. Thanks muchies and Happy Reading =^_^=     

Update

Real World Update

Hello everyone just wanted to let ya know I’m still around and that I do plan on writing more eventual. Just been faced with a major case of writers block. Have a show coming up next weekend. Had an interview the other day, here’s hoping. It’s looking like this one might pan out. Say hello Sephiroth.

Sephiroth: Huh?

Me: Never mind… ever one in Gaia sends there love.

Sephiroth: I don’t

Kadaj: Neither do I!

Me: Yes you do. Neither of you have stopped whining in a week. I don’t know what has gotten into them. Anyhoo, if anyone has some ideas let me know. Maybe some subjections would help with this block.

Muse: It may just. I can’t think of anything.

Me: Thanks and Happy Reading =^_^=

Lego

Thursday, August 22, 2013

Today was a good day. Sephiroth got bored with whatever he was doing so we took the boys to the local art museum to see a Lego display they have there. They were all very impressed and afterwards insisted that we stop by the toy story. I think we bought out their Lego section. I also haven’t heard from the boys in a few hours… not sure how I feel about that.

I also heard from Yuffie today. She just had to tell me all about her new best friend. Apparently Yuffie and Kitty have been out materia hunting when they’re not going on double dates with Rufus and Reno. Thinking two things here, one: how long can Reno and Rufus put up with this and two: I think Yuffie maybe going though some sort of mid-life crisis. I’m not going to worry about it though. It sounds like Kitty is a wonderful girl. I’m sure Yuffie and Rufus are very happy…

But enough about that, I also saw Cloud and Riku today. Zack was out on business or something and Cloud decided to stop by for a bit. I invited them to stay for dinner, especially since Yazoo rushed Riku off to help them build whatever it is they’ve been up too, but because Cloud seemed a bit… out of sorts. But he declined the offer and took Riku home. Must make a not to go check on him tomorrow.

Also need to kick Sephy out of the bedroom… He got inspired by the Legos too, but in a more take over the planet kind of way compared to the build something out of little plastic blocks way. Trying to keep better taps on my Sephy. He’s been out of the house too much lately. He’s starting to get weird ideas.

Anyhoo, books coming along, nothing too much more out of the ordinary to report. Izzy sent her love, although still nothing from my dear sister. And I’m already finding Legos all over the house. Only a matter of time before I step on one. Maybe Sephiroth will be their first victim… Nah it’ll be me. It always is.  

Wishful Thinking

Tuesday, August 20, 2013

Every have those days when you feel like no matter what you do or what you say people are just bound and determined to treat you like a child? Well today’s been one of those days for me. And it doesn’t help that I’ve been feeling overwhelmed lately.

Maybe I’ve just taking on too much at once. I mean I have the boys to look after, another kid on the way, a book I’m trying to write and starting to feel like I’m failing at, a husband who would rather take over the planet than help out at home and a friend who only sees me as a babysitting gossip column.

And to top it all off my sister isn’t speaking to me. I mean I know she’s busy helping Izzy plan this wedding, but I don’t understand why she has to relay messages though my mother. What on Gaia did I do wrong this time? And what has she told my mom to make her upset with me. Maybe I’m reading too much into this, but mom didn’t sound too happy with me on the phone.

I just really want things to go back to normal… well as normal as they can be for me. Here’s to wishful thinking.  

Checking In

Sunday, August 18, 2013

It’s been a long week. Everyone around here is doing fine. It’s been pretty uneventful around here. Working on the second draft of my book, Kadaj had a bad cough a few days ago, but he’s fine now. It’s been one of those quite weeks. Don’t get too many of those.

Anyway, just thought I’d check in let ya know were doing okay… Not much else really… Maybe this coming week will be more eventful. Haven’t seen Aranel or Isdela in a while. Not really that surprising though. Izzy’s up to her neck in wedding planning. All I can say is I’m glad it’s not me. Been there done that, don’t really want to go though it again.

Here’s to the coming week. Hope it’s a good one.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Been a few days. I’ve had a lot on my mind. This past Thursday my dad went it for surgery. He had to have he’s prostate removed due to cancer. I say have to, really he could have gone without because it wasn’t that bad, but he chose to just get it done and out of the way. He’s doing great, recovering nicely. Just got back home Friday and already he’s stir crazy lol. But as you could guess it didn’t put me in much of a writing mood. Anyway, this week is turning out to be a brighter one… minus the rain… Happy Reading everyone.

Not so Normal Normal

Monday, August 12, 2013

Oh to have normalcy again. My crazed cousin is gone, my boys have gone back to whatever it is they do; which currently is shut up in their separate rooms ignoring each other, and Sephy is… well I don’t know what he’s up to he’s been gone all day.

Now if I could just get Yuffie to leave me alone. Since she couldn’t get the info she wanted out of Reno, Cloud or me, she drop her kids off at my place and went to Midgar to investigate for herself. So life isn’t completely back to normal, but Axel and Zexion I can deal with.

Reporting in on Kairi, I can now call her Kairi without my doctor looking at me like a crazy person. I have a feeling that’s why Sephiroth’s been gone all day. He’s still trying to take over the planet for his unborn princess. At least he’s out of the house; I guess that’s a plus.

First draft of my book is done. Marluxia is reading it over now. My short stories are selling pretty well. Something I’m quite proud of. Of course to the boys this means they can ask me for more stuff. And Sephy’s no help, whenever they ask for something and I tell them no he wonders off so he doesn’t have to be involved. I keep having to tell myself I love my family…

Speaking of, Izzy’s been shopping for her wedding dress. She’s also asked if I could design her and Vincent’s wedding invitations. Sephy keeps asking Vincent if he’s reading to go though with this. I’m getting a little nervous myself. While Vincent is absolutely sure, neither he nor Sephiroth have gone to get a DNA test done to see if Vincent is Sephy’s dad. They keep saying it’s Hojo, but what if that crazed old man used Vincent to create Sephiroth. I’m going to use that term because Sephy keeps referring to himself as a “creation.”

All I’m saying is it could get a little weird for all of us if Vincent is Sephiroth’s father. I don’t think Isdela’s ready to be a grandmother… I could be wrong, but…

Guess it’s best if none of us thinks about it too much. It’s already making my head hurt.

Wish it were Friday

Thursday, August 08, 2013

So very happy tomorrow is Friday and Tina is going away. I’m ready to have this house back to normal. She’s been nothing but trouble since she got here. I’m so tried!

Tomorrow I’m going to help Lizzy and her family with another yard sale. Hopefully I can stay awake. Then Saturday I have another yard sale to work on, this one for one of the theater groups I work with a lot, and finally Sunday I’ll get to rest. Good thing to, with Tina here I’ve been so drained I haven’t been able to write.

Even when I think I’ve got some down time to watch Star Trek Next Gen or get some sleep, Tina fines some way to keep me on my feet. And when Tina isn’t driving me crazy, Yuffie is. I’m so sick of her gossip. All she wants to know about is that Kitty girl Rufus Shinra seems to be dating. I’m not a gossip column and Sephy isn’t best friends with the guy. The only person who seems to be more sick of her calls is Cloud.

I can’t really blame him. I love Yuffie like a sister, but she’s annoying like a sister too.

Got to go, my phone’s ringing again and I just heard another explosion. Is it tomorrow yet? 

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Sorry it’s been a few days, this weeks been a drag.

Sephiroth: Your addicted to Star Trek! You need a new hobby!

Me: Oh shut up! No one asked you.

Ego: Yeah bug off Sephy.

Me: No one asked you either dear.

Ego: Sorry…

Sephiroth: I still think you need a new hobby.

Me: Ignore… Hopefully by Sunday I’ll be able to get some sleep and not be so blah.

Muse: ZZzzzzZZzzzzz

Me: See what I mean? Happy Reading!

Tiny Tina

Sunday, August 04, 2013

Headache of the century. I came home for the show today to Tina. That girl has not stopped talking all day. I keep looking for an off switch.

Now all I want to do is sit back and watch a few episodes of Star Trek Next Gen before bed, but I can’t because Tina wants to tell me everything she knows in record time. She talks a mile a minute. How anyone can keep up with her is beyond me.

And of course the boys love her. How could they not? She knows ways to make explosives I’ve only ever seen done on TV. This is not the best start to my week.

I’m going to have to find something to knock her out. Although if she keeps this up Kadaj my not love her too much longer. He gets a bit cranky when he doesn’t keep his beauty sleep. I’m going to wake up tomorrow to Tina stuffed into one of those chest… and I may just leave her there.

Curse my cousin Annie for thinking this was a good idea. I can’t stand her, much less her demon offspring. Yeah, I said it. I know what your thinking, I call my kids monsters, but at least my boys have some since about them. Tina… lets just say to call her uncontrollable would be the understatement of the century.

To top it off Yuffie keeps calling over here wanting to know if Sephy or I know anything about this mystery girl Rufus Shinra is dating. What do I look like a gossip magazine? Best Yuffie was able to get out of Cloud was that her name was Kitty, and he held out a good half hour before he gave up that info. Then she said he hung up on her and wouldn’t pick up the twelve times she called him back.

That girl needs a new hobby. You’d think Axel would keep her busy, but I’m starting the think it’s Reno that looks after those kids. I could always send her Tina, see how that plays out. I’d give it an hour at most before Yuff was begging me to take Tiny Tina back.

Oh yeah, had to listen to her tell me all about how she got the name Tiny Tina. I wish I could wipe today from my memory.

“MAMA!”

And so it begins…

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Mixing universes.

Sephiroth: Weren’t you already doing that?

Ego: Yeah I’m in the story!

Me: Not now you two, I have someone I have to credit.

Sephiroth: I’m not the one bouncing off the walls.

Me: Kitty is a new OC who will be getting more “Screen Time” as the story goes on.

Sephiroth: No really, she’s bouncing off the walls.

Me: Kitty is a character by AnnaleaseTurner

Muse: How on earth is she doing that?

Me: And I’m using Kitty his her permission.

Sephiroth: Better question is how she not injured?

Me: Guys! Anyhoo Happy Reading!

To the Future

Friday, August 02, 2013

Opening night went well. Good crowd, the actors did well and the techie ROCKED! But then again when do we not? Without us there wouldn’t be a show. But enough about the best part of the show, onto more important things.

For instance, today is Ash’s birthday. He’s fourteen now… you know it’s moments like this that make me feel old. I remember when he was a little think and now he’s fourteen. Before I know it my boys will be in high school and collage, getting married and having kids of there own. And then little Kairi… calm down Angel, breathe!

Okay… I’m okay now, but really that’s a scary thought. It’s freighting enough that Loz will be in jr. high in another year or so. I don’t want to think of Sephy as a grandparent. I’m not really worried about me. I’m going to be an awesome grandma.

I need to stop thinking about it before I have a panic attack or something. Back to Ash! We’re all going to see Despicable Me 2 today. Ash and his mom, Daenerys, The boys and Me, Aranel and Lizzy. I think Isdela is spending time with Vincent and her family today and we can’t convince Sephy to every go to the movies. Not even the ones he wants to see. He would rather wait till they come out on DVD. I don’t get him, some movies are just better on the big screen. Guess that’s why we wants to turn one of the bedrooms into a personal movie theater when the boys move out. There I go again!

All of a sudden I have three very hungry imps around my feet. Guess I should feed them…

“Mama,” Kadaj pipes up, “I want Mac and Cheese.”

“Yeah Mac and Cheese,” Yaz and Loz agree.

Mac and Cheese it is then. Best go get that started. Hope I have everything I need to make them Mac and Cheese. Each one of my monsters likes it prepared different. Loz only eats the kind you have to add milk and butter to, thanks sis… the other two like the kind you just add water to, but Yaz likes his with Asian seasoning and soy sauce, not as bad as it sounds, and Kadaj likes his as spicy as I can get it without burning his mouth. I can’t believe I go though all the trouble.

“Mac and Cheese, Mac and Cheese…”

Until next time, “Will you three calm down!” 

Tuesday

Tuesday, July 30, 2013

So, I found a game online today called Kick Out Beiber where you get to physical harm Justin Beiber without all the legal ramifications… yeah I spent hours today playing that game and it’s sequel. I don’t know what that says about me as a person, and I don’t care. It was fun and deeply satisfying.

Sephy watched me play for a bit today and then after trying it himself, he decided he was going to try it for real. So now my crazy husband is plotting to hunt down Justin Beiber. I think I’m just going to let this one go honestly. If Cloud wants to take this one I’ll let him, but I’m making no plans to stop this in the meantime.

Most likely what will happen is Sephy will get bored, as he often does, and go back to playing that game for a while. Then he’ll start plotting something else and I’ll try to talk him out of whatever that plan is. Story of my life.

Got a text from my cousin Tina today. She’s so excited to come spend time with me and Sephy and the boys… I plan to barricade myself in my room, write my book and let Sephy deal with whatever comes. Tina’s a smart girl she’s just… way to dangerous. I don’t really know how else to describe her.

Oh well, I’ll worry about when it comes. For now I have a book to finish up and a show to work on. Until next time…  

Sunburn

Sunday, July 28, 2013

Oh the day I’ve had… rather uneventful really. Helped Lizzy and her family with a yard sale. Not much business, but I did get sunburned… just like me to have like five bottles of sunscreen around the house and not think to put any on before walking out of the house to stand in the sun all day. Luckily Lizzy had some Aloe gel, so hopefully this will clear up pretty quick.

Also, tonight was the first night of tech week. It went rather smoothly compared to most shows. Can’t believe I’m getting paid a hundred gil for one cue. You can barely make that in two weeks pay at most jobs now a days and all I have to do is run one cue on spot. I love theater.

Loz hasn’t left my side all day. He just can’t understand why mommy’s arms are as red as a lobster. My boys and my husband are so lucky. They could spend all day out in the sun and nothing. They stay white as a sheet. No tan, no sunburn… nothing. Wish I could do that, but no. The next few days are going to suck.

Sephy just laughed at me. He can’t believe I was so absent minded. Of course, cuz the great Sephiroth never forgets anything… except maybe my sister’s birthday last year, our wedding anniversary a few times, that he can’t beat Cloud and company to save his or anyone else lives but ya know… aside from all that he never forgets anything.

Well I best go, have to be up early to help put the set together for this show and I have to meet with Marluxia tomorrow about production on my book of short stories before rehearsal tomorrow night. Oh yeah… this weeks gonna be real fun. 

And so it Begins Again...

Saturday, July 27, 2013

How the days do fly. I’m surprised with all I’ve been though this week I’m not laying in bed comatose. Let’s see, I had to help with auditions Monday and Wednesday night, plus signing for my book deal. Fighting with my sister, making up with my sister. Sabotaging two plans, one of Sephy’s and one of the boy’s. Helping Izzy with her wedding plans, and by helping I mean sitting back and going “yes Izzy, no Izzy, whatever you want Izzy,” cuz I didn’t even plan my own wedding and she expects me to help her with her’s…

Plus I’m helping Lizzy with a yard sale her family is having tomorrow before Tech Week starts for our next theater gig tomorrow night. Can ya say over kill, cuz I think I’m there. Luckily for me, my dear cousin Tina postponed her visit a week so that’s one less think I have to worry about.

*CRASH*

I shouldn’t open my mouth should I?

“MAMA!”

Oh the joys of being me. Mother, Wife, Techie…

“MAMA!”

Not to self, no more chemistry sets for Yazoo. Best go find out what they did this time. Until we meet again fair reader.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: And thus another theater season begins.

Sephiroth: Yeah, you’re again weird again.

Me: Whatever do you mean?

Sephiroth: Never mind

Me: Oh Sephy lighting up.

Muse: So what show are we working this time?

Me: It’s some Elvis show, and then we’re on to Gallery stuff. Fiddle on the Roof is first up this season. It’s one of my favorite musicals.

Sephiroth: Why’s he up on the roof in the first place?

Ego: Yeah that seems kind of dangerous.

Muse: This coming from the girl who likes to play with explosives…

Me: It’s not about a Fiddle on a roof that’s just, oh come here… excuse us while I show this batch the movie. Happy Reading!

Rollercoaster

Wednesday, July 24, 2013

I’m not entirely sure which way is up right now. That’s how my day has been. It started out with a lovely text message from my sister telling me that she wasn’t speaking to me until I got my act strait… whatever the hell that means. But I pretty much figured that, so I’m not too upset about it. Still have no idea what is up with her though.

Next, I had my meeting with Marluxia. Good news, I am now a published writer… or I will be. Marluxia loves my stories and wants to publish a book of my short stories to get my name out there while I’m working on my novel. That is one cool dude; he’s hair is pink for gods sake. Not many men can pull that off. Bottom line, signed the contract; which stated that I would be making the bulk of the return for my books. He’s not one to get rich off his writers like some.

So, the family and I went out to celebrate and… well… lets just say just because it may take him a lot to get drunk, it doesn’t mean that my dear Sephy can’t get drunk. And oh so drunk did he get. The kids are now drawing on his face. I’m not stopping ‘em either. I can’t get him up those stairs on my own. Plus it’s a bit unfair of him to go all out when I can’t have a drop of alcohol and it’s my job we were celebrating. Not that I’m bitter, I’m just saying.

So all and all it’s been a good day. It’s nice to have a good day ever now and again. I can’t wait for August though. The local arts council is showcasing a Lego display at their HQ lasting from next month into October. I always wished I had half the talent to make those Lego models growing up, but the best I could ever do was stack a couple then leave the damn things out for us to step on in the middle of the night. I’m telling you, those are the deadliest weapons of all time. Forget guns and knifes, when the zombies come from me, I’m arming myself with Legos.

I’m rambling aren’t I? Sorry, I’m just so excited and happy and it’s almost Thursday… I should go to bed now. Until tomorrow my lovely readers… or later today… night.  

Snapped

Tuesday, July 23, 2013

I don’t know what got into my sister today, but we’re not on speaking terms right now. I mean one minute her, Izzy and I are sitting around talking about Izzy’s wedding and my meeting with the publisher tomorrow and next thing I know she just goes off on me, right in front of the boys. Izzy was so taking back she was speechless.

After I kicked her out, I ran upstairs and started crying. How am I supposed to go though with this interview tomorrow when my own sister has filled my head with doubts? Sephiroth came in and just held me while I cried and the boys each drew me a picture and told me I was the best mom ever. It was nice to have their comfort around me, but it still hurt. I mean my own sister for crying out load.

I don’t know if there is something going on with her and Rude that she’s just not talking about or if it has something to do with our dad’s health. I mean I worried about him to, but the doctors are saying that a quick surgery will fix him right up and all he’ll have to do is go in ever few months for a check up. It’s not even as bad as it could be, so yes I’m worried, but I’m not going off on people.

I just wish she would tell us what’s going on instead of hurting people like that. I know she’s never been one to open up about her problems and her feelings; I’m like that too. But I found other ways to deal with it, why do you think I play video games? But Aranel… I just don’t know what to do? I guess for not just not talk to her for a while, let her cool down or whatever. Maybe she’ll let Izzy know what’s going on.

Until then I should worry more about tomorrow. Marluxia seems like he really likes my stories, but that may not mean anything. And if this doesn’t go well who knows what my darling sister will snap at me for next. I so need this to go well. I cannot have my mother and sister gaining up on me again. Well maybe Aranel more than my mom, but still it’s not like I don’t have enough on my hands with three kids and another on the way, plus Sephy to deal with. My life is a full time job without a “real” job added onto it.

Personal Day

Sunday, July 21, 2013

Skyrim will suck up all of your time if you let it. I should know, it sucked up all of mine yesterday. And if it hadn’t been for Aranel and Izzy demanding I needed a “me day”. It was awful nice of my sister and our dear friend to pay for a spa day. If I hadn’t snuck my tablet in my gym bag last minute I wouldn’t be writing this now.

It is nice to have a little time off. Sephiroth’s been overly helpful lately, which normal means he’s up to something… Not going to worry about it now.

Speaking of which I should probably put this thing away. If my masuss comes back and sees me on this thing I’ll never hear the end of it from Aranel and Isdela. Until tomorrow…  

Avengers

Friday, July 19, 2013

I’ve been marathoning the Marvel movies all day. Mostly from Iron Man one on, minus the Hulk movies. Finishing up The Avengers as I write. It’s kept the boys quite, which is nice.

It’s nice having a quite day every now and again. I don’t get enough of them. Still don’t know what any of my boys are plotting, but today is a good day… so I’m not going to worry about it too much.

Even Sephiroth joined in on family time today, not something that happens very often. He wishes he could meet Loki, go figure…

My cousin comes in on Sunday for a whole week. Not looking forward to that. Tina Glenanna is not a fun person to be around, and she’s only thirteen! Why does this always happen to me? Did I sign up for it when I married a villain? Oh well, I wouldn’t trade it now for anything.

For all the ups and downs I love my boys. I could never have married a “normal” person. Normal is overrated. That’s why I write and do theater after all.

Loz wants to be Nick Furry when he grows up. He even asked for an eye patch. Oh my kids… well it could be worse. He could want to be Loki. Gods help me if Kadaj ever gets that kind of power.   

Late Night

Thursday, July 18, 2013

Can’t get to sleep, too much running though my head. Just watch PewDiePie’s latest video. I love Pewds, he’s funny… and adorable. But it didn’t help.

The boys spent another day locked away in the TARDIS. That maybe one reason why I can’t sleep. Another is I’m worried about the book I’m writing… don’t know if I like it or not. Not really a good attitude to have about your writing. Then again, the artist is their harshest critic so maybe I’m just being hard on myself.

It doesn’t really help that I keep being pulled away from it by this and that, but life hasn’t stopped just because I’m writing. Spent three hours on the phone today with my mom, had to plug my phone up to the charger twice. Also had to walk Zelda today. Yuffie wants me to watch her boys over the weekend, I told her to find another baby sitter and Aqua came over and talked my ears off.

It’s not that I don’t like Yuffie and Aqua, I think that they’re both nice girls. They’re just annoying as hell sometimes.

And of course Sephiroth is no help at all. He’s got some new plot to take over the planet. I’m half tempted to give Cloud all the info on Sephy’s new plan just so this will be over before it starts. Than again I don’t want to take Cloud away from Riku. The poor kid came down with the flu and has been in bed all week.

On a better note, Marluxia called me today. He’s wanting to move are meeting up to next Wednesday. He seems really interested in my stories, which is a good thing. It’s helping me stay positive… and I could use all the positive I can get right now. Had my first run though of my next theater gig tonight…. Yeah… not looking forward to working this show. Upside, I only have one cue. Downside, the show’s boring! If it hadn’t been for Lizzy I probably would have falling asleep halfway though. Oh well, gil is gil right?   

Twilight Zone

Tuesday, July 16, 2013

And somewhere in the last twenty-four hour, normalcy broke loose in my house. I’m not sure when or how… I just know I feel like a stepped out of or into the twilight zone. When I figure out which I’ll let you know, but until then I’m just confused and I’m not too sure how to handle it.

The only think halfway different is that Rufus was supposedly seen taking some mystery girl out to dinner last night. There’s no word yet on who she is or what they were doing together, but I’ve surprised myself yet again by being even somewhat interested in the tabloids. Why is it that at a grocery stores busiest time they only have two, maybe three lines open?

Anyhoo, back to the oddity that is my house. The boys spent all day yesterday and today in the TARDIS. I’m sure they’re plotting something. All I know for sure is it has something to do with Kadaj’s lock picks, Yazoo’s chemistry set and one of Loz’s laser tag phasers. Zelda sat outside the TARDIS whimpering all day and the fact that Sephiroth sat on the porch watching the TARDIS only makes me more worried.

Not to mention my sister and my mother are nervous wrecks. They have completely different reasons as to why, but they are both driving me crazy. On top of that Izzy keeps calling wanting the girls to get together for lunch and dress shopping. I almost wish her and Vincent had gotten married on a whim.

It seems like everyone is out to drive me crazy. The only one not adding to the insanity is Lizzy, but that poor girl is in the same boat I’m in. Only her crazy has to do with her sister and not a house full of villains. I’m half tempted to see if she’ll switch places with me for a day.

And I haven’t even mentioned that Aqua keeps bugging me about asking Izzy if she’ll plan a duel baby shower for me and her once we, and I mean she, finds out what the sex of our babies are. I can’t remember the last time I had a headache this big. It may have been the time Izzy and Aranel cut Sephy’s hair. I can’t wait to have this kid. Once she’s out and I’m on my feet again I’m having a giant Margarita and hope for the best. Oh hello bed, how are you doing? I think I’m just going to lay right here and doze off…

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Hi Hello, I wanted to let you know that I have a lot of family stuff going on right now that may or may not affect my writing in the upcoming weeks. I’m going to try to solder on and keep this as frequent as I can. It’s nothing major major, but it’s still pretty big. So thank you all ahead of time for understanding and for continuing to inspire me to write.

Sephiroth: Yeah thanks everyone, it means a lot to all of us here.

Ego: Your super awesome!

Me: Thanks again and Happy Reading!  

Another Monday

Monday, July 15, 2013

Another Monday, another boring week ahead. Sephy and Yazoo are better, but no less insane. It was nice to have a girl’s night last night. Iron Man 3 is an amazing movie. Lizzy wants me to go back with her tonight to see it again. Seeing as Izzy forgave me, I think I’ll let her babysit so I can go with Lizzy again tonight. Sephy’s gone off again and tonight’s date night for Rude and Aranel.

I think Rude is really good for Aranel. She seems to have calm down a bit since they started dating. Not enough to give up being a sky pirate, but enough were she’s not too much of a bitch. I love my sister, but she’s crazy.

My cousin Tina is coming in next week. She’s only thirteen and already an explosives expert. Her mom won’t let her near fire. Her mom thinks that a week away from home will do her good. I think she’s sending her to the wrong part of the family. I give it an hour before Tina and my three have blown something up. The way my lucks been running, Sephy will probably pay her to build him some explosives.

Also, don’t know where I’m going to put her. I don’t have a guest room anymore. I guess she could stay in Kadaj’s room or on the couch. I let her choose. I’m going to go back to watching youtube while I finish up the new book I’m writing. 

Bad Weekend

Sunday, July 14, 2013

I’ve had no end of bad luck the last three days. I don’t know what mirror I broke, but it’s been hell.

First, Sephiroth’s little work out routine ended up make him sick some how. We’re still trying to figure that one out. Needless to say he’s done with that.

Then, Yazoo got sick. Great debate over what caused him to get sick as well. This did mean, however, that Isdela was here all weekend waiting on Yaz hand and foot. Neither of us got much sleep and I ended up having to call Vincent to drag her away when I found out Yaz had gotten better and was faking sick just so Izzy would baby him. Devious little monster.

On top of all this we had to listen to Aranel’s worried babbling over Rude and whatever is going on in Midgar, which as I hear is starting to die off although Rufus doesn’t seemed to have changed much. That’s not really a surprise though.

Had a gig last night. Ended up working some dinner theater thing with Lizzy. These people have no idea about the technical side of theater. They had they poor Lizzy set up back behind the speakers where she couldn’t hear at all. I ended up having to be her ears for this thing so she could get the mix right. Not to mention they were doing this thing at a church in their great hall, which has amazing acoustics… and wanted mics. I hate people who have no clue about the technical side of theater, but act like they do. It’s an insult to the techies and makes them sound stupid.

So all and all… worst weekend I’ve had in a while. I won’t say worst weekend ever, but it hasn’t been fun. And I’m not sure this week will be much better. My mom keeps calling me. Don’t know what’s going on with her. I’ve been ignoring my phone for the most part. Wouldn’t have known about that gig last night if I hadn’t decided to answer the stupid thing when Lizzy called.

We are planning on going to the movies tonight, just her, Aranel, our friend Daenerys and I. We invited Isdela, but she’s mad at me right now. She’s not even talking to Vincent! She’ll get over it though. Just like Yazoo will get over being grounded. Gods only know what Izzy would do to me if she found out that I locked Yazoo out of the TARDIS. It serves him right though, it’s not okay to use your godmother as a personal servant. I don’t care if she doesn’t mind. It’s bad enough those three are as bad as their father most days. I don’t need them having extra time on their hands to devise ways to drive me crazier than I already am.

It’s bad enough Sephiroth has free time; we’ve all seen how well that works. If my sons had that much spare time… not thinking about it, can’t think about it.

Speaking of disaster, I think I just heard something crash. Best go see what the monsters are up to.

                                                                                                                                                                   

A/N: Sorry I haven’t written in three days. It’s been crazy on my end.

Muse: Tell me about it.

Ego: So tired

Me: I know, between family stuff and theater stuff and job hunting I’ve had not time to do much else.

Sephiroth: You should really consider ditching one of those things. Who needs a job?

Me: People who need money to buy things which inspire them to write.

Sephiroth: Oh…

Muse: Yeah this doesn’t all come from real life experience. Some of it has to come from a well placed kick to the head.

Ego: Or an explosion of shrapnel.

Sephiroth: I thought we agreed she doesn’t get explosives.

 Me: Here we go again… Happy Reading!   

Izzy's Back

Wednesday, July 10, 2013

“I’m Back!”

“That’s great Izzy, but next time could you make a less dramatic entrance? Doors are expensive.”

“Oh don’t be a buzz kill Angel.”

I won’t lie, I have missed Isdela. Since the boys got their new rooms they haven’t been as mischievous. However, I’ve come to hate silence and I need someone to rant to about Sephiroth. Aranel won’t listen; she’s too busy worrying about Rude.

“So how goes the wedding planning,” I ask.

“Picture this… a red/black/silver theme. Elegant with a kind of gothic-vampiric feel. We’re thinking of having it on a Friday the 13th or a dark rainy kind of day.”

“So you plan on controlling the weather?”

“And do you think Yazoo could be the ring bearer?!”

I just stare at her. What kind of question is that? “Yes I think Yaz could be the ring bearer. Like he’d say no to his godmother.”

“Well I still wanted to ask. I still haven’t picked out a dress yet.”

I go back to reading my book, but I can feel she glaring at me. “What Izzy?”

“You think you and Aranel could go with me sometime soon to pick out a dress?”

I shake my head, “I don’t mind, but I can’t answer for my sister. Whatever is going on in Midgar has got her all worked up.”

“Why?”

“Because of Rude.”

“Ohhhhhh the new boy toy. Well she just going to have to get over it for a day. I need both of you to help me look.”

I shake my head again, “Welcome back Izzy.”

She smiles and moves to sit next to me on the couch. It’s the first time I notice Vincent. He’s standing in the doorway with three large suitcases under each arm.

“What ya do? Bring back the whole Island,” I ask.

“Oh it’s just a few things,” she protests. “I had to bring back gifts for my family.”

“The boys are at Marcy’s hanging out with Demy and Saix. It’s Demyx birthday, I had to come home though. I can only so much dragon inspired mayhem before I start getting a headache.”

“You’re such an awesome mom,” she teased.

“You know how Saix gets when he thinks he’s not getting enough attention.”

“Yeah I know he’s a little attention whore.”

We hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Sephy appears in the living room shirtless. He ignores everyone and heads for the kitchen.

“What the what,” Izzy looks at me confused.

“If I knew I would have put a stop to it already. Vincent put those bags down and have a seat. You’re making me nervous.”

He nods and puts the bags down by the door before taking a seat beside Izzy.

“So what’s going on with hubby,” Izzy asks.

“It’s a long story,” I say.

“We’ve got time,” She says settling in.

“Well Cloud thinks it has something to do with everything that’s going on in Midgar,” I begin. For the next two hours I tell the two of them about everything they’ve missed and we talk about what it could mean for the future of Gaia. We all came to the conclusion the Rufus needs a woman, or a man, in is life to calm he’s butt down. Also, people are crazy. Although that’s something we already knew, just one of those obvious things you state every now and then.

The boys came home shortly after and the rest of the afternoon was spent passing out gifts and playing laser tag. This annoyed Sephiroth to know end, so it made me happy. I don’t really know why I get so happy whenever he gets all upset. Maybe it’s because I know it’s interrupting whatever he’s plotting. We make quite the pair don’t we? 

                                                                                                                                                                    

A/N: Shout out to Isdela and AnnaleaseTurner for inspiring this chapter. They’re maybe a wedding and a hook up in the near future.

Sephiroth: Oh joy… more things I don’t want to do.

Me: Don’t be a sour puss Sephy. 

Political

Tuesday, July 09, 2013

I caught Sephiroth doing sit-ups and push-ups today. He asked me to be his spotter. I just stared at him like his got two heads and left him alone. I told Cloud what was going on and he seems to thing it has something to do with those rebels that attacked Shinra the other day.

I’m so out of the loop. I don’t watch TV beyond my favorite shows, I don’t read the news paper and most of the time I spent on the internet I’m on facebook or youtube. Anyhoo, there’s some political thing going on. Some people think Shinra’s just up to it’s old tricks and are trying to over throw them and start up a democratic system. This is why I write and play video games. The real world is just too depressing.

All I know is that Aranel tells me Reno and Rude are all wrapped up in this because of there jobs and she and Yuffie are worried the boys are going to get hurt. Cloud and Zack aren’t too happy with it either cuz Shinra’s calling them in to help control the crowds. It’s all around not good. Cloud asked me today if I could look after Riku if he and Zack get called in. I told him to tell Rufus to defend himself. They’re parents now, they shouldn’t have to deal with this hero stuff anymore.

Tell you what though, if Sephy is mixed up with this rebel nonsense I’m cutting his hair myself while he’s asleep. Sure fire way to keep him indoors.

As for me, I don’t know that I care one way or another. So long as it doesn’t show up on my front door. Then I’m calling my cousin Tina. That girl is the real life Fiona Glenanna. She can be kind of scary, but no one messes with her. Not even Sephy, and it takes a lot to scare him.   

Lost Cause

Monday, July 08, 2013

Well that was a bust. Apparently the woman who is chief publisher or whatever is only interested in romance novels, and while she liked my style of writing she wasn't into the story itself. I don’t do romance, I do sci-fi, action/adventure type stuff. I can’t sit though a romance movie without laughing my ass of half way though. I cry at Disney movies okay, I’m a geek… and proud of it.

So I won’t be writing for those guys, but I’m still looking and I’ve got another meeting at the end of the month. That one holds a bit more promise. The head honcho there, Marluxia I think his name was, he liked my story. Said it was very intrusting. He sounded really nice too.

As for my sister, she’s backed off some. Said she understands that I’ve got a lot on my plate and that she gets that being a good mom is something very important to me. It’s nice to know that my sister can be reasonable at times, even if she is a crazy bitch. And she’ll be the first to tell you she is, so… yeah.

Sephy’s gone on some crazy work out regiment. Don’t know what he’s up too this time, but he swears that next time he faces Cloud and Company he’ll be able to beat them. I give this a week before he gets bored of this and moves on to some other crazy scheme. Never ending cycle with that one.

We did hear from Izzy today. Her and Vincent will be back Wednesday. She can’t wait to tell us all about her dream wedding. She’s already let slip that she wants to ask Yazoo to be the ring barer. He’ll say yes of course, none of my kids can say no to Izzy. Not even Kadaj, and he can say no to just about anybody… or whine to me when he doesn’t get his way. He’s just like Joffrey, except I’ll smack him across the month when I have to. Boy is too much like he’s father. I’m surprised I haven’t gone insane yet.

I think I just heard Sephiroth leave… just what could that hubby of mine be up to?  

                                                                                                                                                                    

A/N: Chapter Seventy! Who would have thought when I started this two months ago that I’d still be writing.

Sephiroth: I didn’t

Me: Your such a doll. Thanks to all my readers, your support and kind words have kept me going.

Sephiroth: So knock it off. She’s starting to get one hell of a ego.

Muse: Leave her be!

Ego: Yeah! I’m not that big yet.

Me: Okay guys, starting to get a headache.

Sephiroth: Where did Tiny Tina get that sniper rifle?

Me: I have to go break up this party before it gets too crazy. Happy Reading everyone!

The Big Day Awaits

Sunday, July 7, 2013

We went looking for guitars today for Yazoo. I decided if he really wants to learn to play I might as well encourage it. I played flute in band for though middle and high school and I’m in theater. Big supporter of the arts.

We found one he likes and it’s not too expensive. I told him I would get it for him with my paycheck from my theater gig coming up at the end of the month. In the mean time I got him a book on how to play guitar for him to look over and I’m going to look about a teacher for him. Get all my ducks in a row now.

Have a meeting with one of the publisher tomorrow. I’m nervous as hell. I tried to get my books published when I was in high school and no one wanted them. Kind of discouraging. But I’m trying to think positive. This time will be different.

Still no sign of Izzy and Vincent, although Aranel did hear from Izzy. They’re at the beach planning their wedding! Can’t deny, kind of interested in what they have planned. Izzy told Aranel that they’ll be back by the end of the week.

This I don’t like, cuz Aranel’s starting to gang up on me now too. Today she told me that if I don’t get out and start looking for a job if I get rejected be these publishers again, that she was going to take MY Playstation that I bought with my gil. I’m getting real tired of my family ganging up on me. I get that they’re worried, but we’re doing fine. I have my theater gigs and my art. It doesn’t sell for much, but I do on occasions sell a few pieces. And if all goes well I’ll finally be a writer, just like I always wanted.

This way I can continue to be a stay at home mom and do something that I’ve always love to do. Win Win, but if that little brat comes anywhere near my playstation I’m stringing her up by her toes! I never once bugged her about playing on her systems growing up. I had my own. It’s just so dishearten to know that my own family doesn’t believe that my dreams can come true, but they’re cool with my sister’s profession.

Whatever, she won’t get my PS3. It things don’t go well with these publishers I’ll hide the damn thing until she goes away and if she shows up while I’m playing on it and tries to take it I’ll send the kids after her. She may think she’s tough, but she’s never been able to deny my kids. That’s a thought… I could give the PS3 to Yazoo to put in the TARDIS. I don’t think she’d take it if she thought I’d giving it to Yazoo…       

Geek Day

Saturday, July 6, 2013

Aranel and I spent the day teaching the boys how to play Yu-Gi-Oh and watching random videos on youtube. Basically, the boys have the most awesome rooms ever and all three of them where bored out of their minds. The only other thing that happened today was Loz discovered he had his own snack machine in his room. Apparently Isdela built him one of those food replicators in his room and neglected to inform us. I may never get that boy out of his room now.

Yazoo also informed me today that he wants to learn how to play guitar. He’s become a big fan of Ed Sheeran. Thank gods for that, I’m still trying to beat the love of Taylor Swift out of Kadaj. I’m starting to think that Yazoo maybe my bisexual son and Kadaj will be the gay one… with bad taste in music.

Sephy spent the day avoiding the rest of us like we had the plague or something. Once again, how did I end up married to the non-geekiest person on Gaia? Not liking Doctor Who was suppose to be a deal breaker for me and I still end up with the one person I know who hates all things nerdy. Oh well, at least I’m raising our kids right.

Tomorrow we plan to marathon Star Trek Next Gen just to annoy the hell out of Sephy. He should really learn to keep his mouth shut.

Izzy and Vincent have gone off grid again. Aranel spent the week with Rude and hasn’t heard from Izzy since Monday. It’s odd for us to go this long without hearing from her… which scares me… a lot. If we don’t hear from them by next weekend, I’m sending out the search party.

Anyhoo, Kadaj lost his first baby tooth today. Aranel told him all about the tooth fairy, Sephy told her not to fill his head with stupid stories and I reminded him that was Izzy’s job. Now I have to leave the kid three gil cuz that’s how much my darling sister told Kadaj his tooth was worth. I never gave Loz and Yazoo more than a gil! I’m going to owe them so much for this. Gods only know how much she’ll tell Kairi her teeth will be worth.

Also must remember to go to the toy story and get some dragon toys. Demyx’s birthday is coming up and he’s going though a phase. He’s new favorite thing is dragons. Marcy says its because he just saw “How to Train Your Dragon” for the first time recently and now it’s all he talks about. So he’s getting a dragon themed party.

I’m making Sephy sleep on the couch tonight for calling Yu-Gi-Oh stupid, which reminds me I need to lock the bedroom door before he gets home. He went to go visit “mother.” Old habits die hard I guess. 

Job Hunting

Friday, July 05, 2013

Talked with a few more publishers today. Not much luck, which has really got me worried about my upcoming meeting with one of the publishers who would hear me out.

Sephy on the other hand had all the luck. It seems among the new files they found, there were some missing stuff on Sephiroth and the Jenova project. He couldn’t be happier. I’m happy cuz this means I get to sleep in my own bed tonight.

Riku came over today and the boys played laser tag for a while, then Yazoo and Riku went to hang out in the TARDIS and sent Kadaj into another whinefest. He’s gotten overly needed lately and I don’t know if it’s just a phase or if he’s doing it cuz he knows his not going to be the baby too much longer. Probably a combination on the two, but in my dreams I saw them getting along so I’m thinking once little sister is here he’s going to get overprotective. They all will…

I’m just happy to not be the only girl in the family. Being surrounded by all these guys was going to drive me crazy. And with the boys only being two years apart, Loz ten, Yazoo eight and Kadaj turning six in October, puberty was going to hit me like a ton of bricks! Still going to, so not looking forward to that. Dating is going to be the real fun part.

My sister told me once that one of my boys was going to be gay. Her bet is on Kadaj, Izzy and I think it’s going to be Yazoo. Sephiroth thinks we’re all crazy. It’s not that he wouldn’t be okay with having a gay son, it’s just he thinks that Aranel, Izzy and I are over thinking things and are going to try to force one of them to be gay to prove him wrong or something. I don’t think all the lights are on upstairs all the time. Sephy can be a real moron some days.

Speaking of my bed it is calling my name. What is it about job-hunting, or in my case calling and visiting almost every publisher in Midgar, make you so tired. Is it just me? It can’t be just me…

Today's Part Two

Thursday, July 04, 2013 part two

Today was a lazy day full of laziness and do nothingness… Yeah it was one of those days.

The boys kept themselves entertained in their separate rooms, Sephy spent most the day ankle deep in files and I spent the day poolside next door with Aqua and Terra. I didn’t even know this place had a pool.

“Enjoying your day off,” Terra asked me.

“Yes… yes I am,” I responded

Terra made the best non-alcoholic fruity drink. I have no idea what it is except it tasted like mangos and strawberries. Aqua says Terra makes the best mixed drinks, which only makes me want to have the kid faster so I can drink again. Is that bad? I feel like that’s kind of bad…

After I decided I’d spent enough time in the sun I came home and played more Last of Us. I think I’m addicted. Is there a video games anonymous? I think there should be. Mostly for those little pre teens who just live online playing these multiplayer games, acting stupid and being a nuisances. But I could need it too.

It’s looking like another nursery camp out tonight. If I wasn’t so happy Sephy final managed to do something without summoning a meteor or giant monster I’d kick him out of our room and shred ever last document just so I could sleep in my own bed. Oh well… my life right?
