Acid reflux is killing me, but that's not what this post is about. This post is about my 25th BIRTHDAY, which was yesterday. It was also Buddy's 2nd birthday. It was also the one year anniversary of adopting Buddy. Hence why he is known as Buddy the Birthday Kitty :)

Anyway, yesterday started out pretty boring because I was home alone. But I spent the time playing on my computer and hanging out with the Birthday Kitty. Also when I got up, there was a message from my mom on the whiteboard that said, Amanda Happy Birthday! It made me smile. When she got home she let me open a present early. It was Michael Jackson's This Is It on DVD! I was so excited.

As for birthday wishes, I got a ton from friends and family on my facebook and from people on Twitter. It really made me smile. I also got my annual American Idol Birthday Call. What it is, is my mom's friend Gail calls and sings Happy Birthday as badly as she can. It's always one of the highlights of my birthday. Really, if you could hear, you'd die laughing. It's so bad! I love getting that call XD And I also got some really awesome birthday tweets from some really amazing singers. I totally screen capped them! So here they are:


Bday Tweets behind the Cut! )


So those of course really made my day! I was all SQUEEEEE!

Around six Mom and I went with Mike to Newicks for my birthday dinner. If you go on your birthday, you get up to $10 off your meal and they have stuff under ten bucks so you can essentially get a free meal. But you have to show your ID so it has to be your birthday. haha. It's this new tradition we've started, going for our birthdays, since we now have a Newicks in our city. We only used to be able to go once in a while since the nearest one was pretty far away. The food was amazing as usual. Mom and I got the same thing, but she got the smaller portion. It's a seafood caserole. It's haddock, shrimp and scallops in Newburgh sauce with crumb topping. It's soooooo good. Usually this time of year they have Seafood Shepherd's Pie, which is the same thing but with potato instead of the crumbs. But they didn't have it this year, so I was a little disappointed. But not by much since I got to have the caserole :) We were so stuffed, that when we got home we couldn't even have cake! And we still haven't. I wanted to have some for breakfast, but I thought I'd wait till after dinner so I could have some with my mom and get to blow out the candles and everything.

And now for presents. So you already know about the DVD. Well, from Mike I got 2 McDonald's gift cards. That's what he always gets me which I love. He's great. Saturday I got a card with $25 in it from my grandma. The rest of the things I got from my mom was a bunch of candy because I have the biggest sweet tooth EVER! She also got me a karaoke game for the Wii. And the last thing she got me was Kat Von D's book High Voltage Tattoo, which is the name of her tattoo shop. There are some awesome pictures in it! I haven't started reading it, but I've started looking through the pictures and they're cool. It's a really beautiful book. I can't wait to get started on it.

All in all, my birthday was pretty awesome. 25 is starting pretty well. Lets hope it continues this way :)

Dear Miss Ducky,
You've been MIA on AIM today. So I thought I'd update you here. Instead of going thru it all again, just read the post before this.

Don't worry I'll wait.

Did u finish? Well okay then. Let's get back to what I wanted to say to you.

I'm all anxious right now. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep.

I wish you were here right now. We could cuddle on my teeny twin size bed and you could tell me everything is gonna be okay. I guess I need a little reassurance .....and maybe some chocolate ;)

This is one of those times when I wish you just lived next door. Or at least in the same time zone so it's easier to catch each other on the intraweb. I wish I could have a real hug. Really I'm just dying for some human affection

I think I'll get going to bed now.
Maybe cry some. I feel so emotionally icky.

I love you and I miss you

Love Always,
amanda: jaclyn's twin sister♥

Ps maybe u should come up with a way for me to sign these private posts between us. Give me a cool nickname.

As most of you know I've been doing a lot of writing lately. Most of which hasn't even been in the hanson fandom. I've been writing a lot of Kradam and Adam Lambert lately.

While this was happening, I should have been writing for The Spark Inside Challenge. I signed up for it months ago. It was supposed to be a collaboration effort. I got paired up with Renee C. aka [livejournal.com profile] mizzc. Well a week or two or more ago we came up with a story line which was great. Finally we could get writing. So Renee took chapter one and it came out really well. I liked where it was going. But when it came time for me to write chapter two... I could not for the life of me figure out what to do, how to start. I'd sit in front of my computer and just read over the first chapter and I couldn't even come up with a good line. The hardest part was that I had all these other ideas for different stories that had absolutely nothing to do with hanson floating around in my head. I had to get them out the only way I know how: I wrote the thoughts down.

But that brings me to tonight. Renee sent me an @reply on twitter asking about how I was doing with SPARK. I told her the truth: it wasn't going good at all. Then she suggested that we back out of the challenge. I told her we probably should because I can't even wrap my head around the Hanson fandom at the moment. Next thing I know she stopped following me on twitter, but what hurt the most is that she blocked me from seeing her posts.

I don't even know what I did wrong :/ I mean, yeah, it completely sucks that we had to drop out. But I can't help if I'm drawing an absolute blank in one fandom and then can't write fast enough for another. All in all I wanna know why I was shunned like that. I don't care if you think I'm a baby when I admit that I was so upset over this complete cutoff from someone I thought was a friend that I actually cried. I feel like shot and a failure and I would like an explanation. But you know what? She probably cut me from her eljay friends list too so she won't even see this. Whatev.

I just don't get it. What did I do wrong?

So today we're going out to dinner with Jeff, Doug and Mark. We're going to the Red Apple Buffet. Best chinese buffet around. Well not just Chinese, also Japenese, American and Italian. It's awesome food. I could go there every day.

We don't know what time we're going tho. The boys were going to a movie and then we were going to go to dinner with them. So we don't know if it'll be lupper or dinner. Lupper is like brunch except it's lunch and supper.

Also, I emailed [livejournal.com profile] duckynz the first chapter of Puppy Love because I needed someone's opinion on it. So we'll see what she thinks and then I'll probably post it. Or I'll write the second chapter before posting so I'll be one ahead.

My grandma left this morning. Early enough that I didn't even see her. But that's okay. At least now I xan read slash without her looking over my shoulder. And I don't have to be so completely stressed out.

Jeff's here. Gotta go.

Love ya.

Jeezus! I'm so frickin excited about today that I can't get back to sleep. This is gonna suck by the end of the night. But I can't help it. I just want to go to petsmart / petco and the necessaries for my new kitty. We need a new litter box, some new toys, litter, food but we'll probably have to wait to see which one we adopt to figure out the food. Plus they'll need a collar and nametag, not that they'll wear it. I have Logan's tag on my keychain. Now I just need to find MnM's. Then all my memories of my babies will be with me all the time.

Damn. I really canNOT wait for today and then tonight. Today is going to be awesome. I can feel it. Can't you?

Anyway, Imma go on my freezing cold porch and have a smoke. Maybe when I come back in and get under my toasty blankets, I'll be able to get back to sleep. If not, I'll take a shower..... Maybe.

Well, I'm gonna go have that smoke now. I'll update later tonight and tell you how everything goes. Keep your fingers crossed.

So we did New Years @ Jeff's house. It was pretty fun. We sat around listening to music and eating and drinking.....so, okay I wasn't drinking drinking. I had one Mike's light Hard cranberry lemonade. It was yummy. When it was finally midnight we all did a champagne toast. Of course the 7 under-agers got sparkling apple cider. I also had apple cider b/c I don't really like champagne.

I'm really tired so I'm going to get to bed now; you can see how late I'm posting.

I hope everyone had an amazing New Years Eve, no matter what you did.

I love you, buddies!!!
Love,

OMG! I just got the coolest effing thing in the world!!!!!!

My present from [livejournal.com profile] n_isfor_neville  finally arrived! It had the cutest little kitty Christmas card with it. But the wicked awesome part was that she got me a bag! I'm not even sure if she knows my obsession with bags, but anyway... The bag is white and has cute little PINK FLAMINGOS on it! And it came with a little mirror with the same design. It has to be one of the coolest gifts I got this year.

So to Neville, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I LOVE IT! lol



[p.s.] I really need to post a picture of it.

I'm very sorry that I broke the rules and did not post something happy yesterday. But we were quite busy with shopping for birthday presents, going to the birthday party, then buying Christmas presents, so I did not have the time. But I'm making up for it by posting what made me happy yesterday AND today. =)


Day #5 (yesterday)
     What made me happy yesterday was seeing baby Lily open the present we got her for her first birthday. It was a stuffed animal, a sheep with her baby and it was the softest thing ever! But Lily's favorite parts of the present were the ribbon and tissue paper. But that's not all that surprising b/c she's only one year old. She was completely cute and that made me smile.  =)


Day #6 (today)
     Today what made me happy was going to Mulligan's with Mom, Jeff and Mark. Jeff and Mark go to Mulligan's for breakfast just about every Sunday. And they always get the same waitress! This was Mom's second time and this was my first time going there. The place was really nice and quiet and calm, and the food was delish! I had to bring most of it home b/c I got a Club omlette and they make them with 3 xtra large eggs, it was HUGE!!! It doesn't even really look like I ate any of it b/c it's so big. But it was yummy with bacon, turkey, cheese, and tomatoes in it. Hence why it's called "The Club."


So that is my happiness post.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend.
I'll talk to you later!

Dedicated to Paul: one year. still missed.


The Sweetest Goodbye
© Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers

No matter how many times we've done this
And we've done it so many times
It never does get easier
When it's time to say goodbye
And I wear your memory underneath my shirt
Like an Indian tattoo
Crushed by conscience in a mental slide show
And I dream of kissing you

And it's the sweetest goodbye
When I get home
We're gonna sleep all day
Just you and I
And if you never left you'd never know why
You had to go in the first place
And I picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet...
Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye

Now there's two of you
That I find myself saying goodbye to
And at night the three of us are in my head before I sleep
And I know we need the money
Though I hope it doesn't show
Cause whatever I've got coming
Comes to me when we're alone

And it's the sweetest goodbye
When I get home
We're gonna sleep all day
Just you and I
And if you never left you'd never know why
You had to go in the first place
And I picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet face
Picture your sweet...
Sweetest Goodbye

The Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye

Every second of every minute
Of every hour of every day
I'm thinking of the things that I can say
To make you miss me when I go away-way-way-yeah

(the sweetest goodbye)
And it's the sweetest goodbye when I get home
(the sweetest goodbye)
We're gonna sleep all day just you and I
(the sweetest goodbye)
And if you never left you'd never know why

The Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye
The Sweetest Goodbye

In a meme I posted not too long ago (stolen from [livejournal.com profile] hansongirl97) I answered the question, Has anyone ever sang to you? as No. But in fact someone has.

I was thinking about it the other day. I went to the local high school's Lip Aid (a lip-sync fundraiser) one year and my friend Matt and his group of friends performed. They did something by New Kids On The Block. I'm thinking it was The Right Stuff but I can't be sure b/c it was over 5 years ago. So anyway, they were doing their thing which is always the most amusing thing ever, and they came up the aisles. I stuck my hand out to get Matt's attention. He stopped, took my hand, and sang the song to me. You could possibly say that was one of the best moments of my life.

It's a long story, but Matt is going to marry me someday.....he just doesn't know it yet. lol




[p.s.]

Am I the only one who's heard that New Kids On The Block are making a come-back? Also, am I the only one excited by this news?
