I edited this awhile ago. I took the bike pic in my grandparents backyard. And I believe I took the cloud pic in Florida. Anywho, just thought I'd share!

Jett
We have this cat (I now can't say that word without being ridiculed by my own brother (in-law). Sigh, I guess some things never change.) named Jett. We found him close to 3 years ago in our backyard. Well, as the story goes for most animal lovers that find a stray, he's been with us ever since.
Today Jett decided he wanted company and a nice warm bed to sleep on (that's me). So he jumped up, got comfy, and went to sleep. He may have been comfortable, but I wasn't. So I ended in that cramped and confined position for 2 hours. Man did my neck hurt.
Ah, the things we slaves do for our masters (that's the cat, in case you didn't get the memo.).

Kingly (or rather, Queenly)
So the other day I got this amazing pen from a couple I've known for a long time. I absolutely love this pen! I've appropriately named it "The Rainbow Scepter". I shall use it for writing Queenly decrees and notes.

White
So a little while ago I started this car-ride game with my sister. It was a hour long drive so it provided a lot of opportunities to spot semis. Yes, I did say spot semis. So the whole car ride we were looking for all the colors of the rainbow semis. We ended up finding all the colors, and more. We found brown, black, white, grey, and various shades of colors. But the most important one we found was pink. We found pink. When you start looking at all the semis, you're going to notice there's never pink. But we found it. And yesterday, I found it again. It was a great victory.
Now to you this might be strange. "Psh. Who wants to look at semis. How boring." But when you have time to kill in the car, like I do, it gets quite enjoyable. So the next time you want a family game to play in a hour-or-so-long car ride, perhaps that can be one that is played.
Now the game has changed a little on my part. Now I count how many semis I see on the road and I record their colors. I only count the semis that are being occupied by human beings.
Here are the statistics I've accumulated over the course of 16 days (one car ride per day, not 24 hours straight. I'm not super human, nor can I see in the dark because it's very difficult to see what color semi it is in pitch black.) (Note: this is approximate, I'm neither super human nor blessed with amazing math skills and attention span.):
Pink: 1
Maroon/Burgundy: 14
Red: 156
Dark Coral: 1
Burnt Orange: 5
Orange: 28
Yellow: 31
Neon Yellow: 1
Mint Green: 1
Green: 31
Teal: 6
Blue: 139
Navy: 12
Indigo: 1
Periwinkle: 3
Lilac: 2
Purple: 30
Brown/Tan: 6
Cream/Light Tan: 2
Black: 51
Grey: 9
Pewter: 1
White: 463
Silver: 11
Gold: 8
Two-Colors: 30
Three-Colors: 4
Semi with art painted in the side: 1
Semis with flame designs: 2
So as you can see, white wins by a lot. The most white semis I've seen in a day is 69. So because of how much I see them, I'm beginning to not like white semis. If I ever start a trucking company, I will NOT, under any circumstances, own. white. They will vary in color, but mostly contain bright pink. (Don't worry I won't start a trucking company, though it would be nice to see more pink semis on the road.)
So I hope you guys appreciate that because that took a lot of brain power, which I have very little of. *
*If you read this all the way through, I'm sorry. This must have been incredibly boring to you because no one cares about semis but me.
Fun Fact: Optimus Prime is a semi in his spare time.

The Beatles
"Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Di, Life Goes On."
I edited this today. I had this song in my head for a few days. But I thought it was a fitting verse for the things that have gone on recently. When something bad happens in your life, sometimes you just got to say, "life goes on." Perhaps that's why it was stuck in my head...
"Hey Jude"
"Take a sad song and make it better."
"For you well know that it's a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder"
But this is also fitting for things that have happened recently. But in general I just wanted to make this because I love these lyrics, they're one of my favorite lyrics of the Beatles, and just in general. I think they have a lot of meaning just in the few words.
I think it's amazing that the Beatles music will never go out of style. Other artist come and go. But the Beatles have remained since they're start over 50 years ago. They had such an impact on how music is made today that all music should be credited to them!
But sadly there are still people who don't know the Beatles and perhaps won't listen to them just because they're "old." But good music is timeless. Good music's never forgotten. Music has the power to travel generations and to live on.

Outfit
I just created this outfit and I really want that feather earcuff. I also want everything else. But I really love this outfit and I would wear it in a heartbeat. Just thought I'd share since I haven't posted since I really have nothing to talk about til the middle of April really. Although something exciting might pop up on the way.
