| I decided to go to a Xanga link and get on some commenting on a complete stranger's blog, even replying to other complete strangers. So I thought I'd have a similar thing here, if it'll ever go. :D As you can see, I've been a member of Xanga for quite awhile, but have been quiet. I prefer Livejournal as my main. I'll use this to have conversations with random strangers (and the few people I know who use this).
So, what shall I talk about? I don't like controversial issues. I am a Christian and have certain unpopular opinions, but I stay away from such conversations because all it does is give me ulcers and make me feel like people have a bad opinion of me when I honestly do try to love and just be a friend. However, some people reject me because I am a Christian accusing me of being close-minded. Anyone else see the irony there? You don't have to agree with me. I'm just asking for mutual respect enough not to force each other's opinion on the other.
I prefer to talk about relationships, graphic design, imagination and creativity, writing, tabletop games, general role playing, WoW, and general light hearted bickering for the sake of wit and laughter.
Funny thing about relationships is that I need to be careful of a line because my husband IS a real person and a private person at that.
Well, I suppose this was just an introduction since I'm not really inspired to write anything of particular note. I have a Livejournal, but Xanga seems to be more set up to start conversations with random strangers. :D
Now, changing subject. I'm sorry. I can't think of a clever way to transition the thoughts.
I woke up much earlier than intended. I've had a bad habit of not falling asleep until about 2 or 3 am and not waking up till about 11am or noon. So yesterday, I decided I need to try, yet again, to break this. My alarm was set to 9 in case I wasn't up when my husband left about 8, but I decided that I should set it to 8:30. However, when he got up at 6:30, I couldn't fall back asleep. My stomach felt sore, I had a bad dream and was just feeling depressed for no real reason. I pondered if I was suffering physically from a sudden onslaught of serious home-sickness (which I have off and on). I finally got up about 7 and did my morning routine and I started reading my comics and well, here I am stuck on Xanga. Going to copy this to paste to Livejournal and hope to remember to add a link back here in case those people want to comment (assuming they have an account or can post anonymously). No worries, LJ is still my main journal. Back to comics! I get so scattered when I do get up early for some reason. Must be the illusion of extra time; which isn't if I goof around like this all morning! More coffee!
Oh, and here's my website if anyone wants to see it.

| We just got a letter saying as soon as we pay the fee and go into the
CIC office, I should be "landed" and will be a permanent resident and
be able to work and I think get a Canadian passport (and the ability to
come home sometimes!)
It just feels like life can start now. I
don't mean that the past year has been lifeless, but it's just felt
like certain things have been put on hold. I couldn't even apply to
rent movies at Blockbuster here because I don't have Canadian ID. | | |
| Xanga is trying so hard to compete in the market of MySpace and LiveJournal, it's gotten crowded with features. I want Livejournal because it's simple blogging and that's all. Facebook simply gives me access to friends and messaging and photos (there are other things, but they're optional) and it's easier to navigate.
MySpace has a crowded layout.
FaceBook and LiveJournal are my things. I keep the others because I have friends there that aren't on FB or LJ.

| I don't like begging, and I never want to buy something that I can get or earn for free.
I earned some Xanga Credits doing a survey.
I looked at what I could get.
I can get Xanga premium.
THAT IS AWESOME.
Except I'm not sure how long it'll take me to get 100,000 credits. I'm about to do some research.
But if there's a way to transfer credits, and you're feeling generous. Yes please. :D
