It's major suckage for me to attempt this because I am horrible with introducing myself to anyone for anything. Anyways, my name is Teresa and I am in my twenties -- at that halfway point to my midlife crisis. At least that's how it feels nearly everyday. I enjoy long walks (I really do), taking pictures of everything, reading trashy romance novels and drooling over media-claimed womanizers like Gerard Butler and John Mayer; even though Mayer always has me going that he's on some sort of medication. It's that sleepy slope of his eyes, I swear. Anyway, I'm silly and weird and I swear I'm nice. Add me because my journal is super-empty? :( It gets lonely in here.

"Memories" - Eisley |
] |
Hellos, my name's Birdie, I'm 23 and I used to have an IJ forever and a day ago but I fell out of the whole online journal thing - I think I'm ready to pick it back up.
Interests: Drawing, illustration (art in general), corsetry, books, collecting odds and ends; for example I'm on a serious penguin kick right now.
Hobbies: Reading, watching Tim Curry movies, helping my friend run his nightclub once a week, making coffee, arting, making new friends, knitting
What are you reading right now?: The Dresden Files series by Jim Butcher - currently halfway through book 6 Blood Rites
I'm hoping to find interesting people who I'll get along with...that means pretty much anybody. Just as long as you don't bring drama to me, and are generally friendly then we'll get along just fine. :)

We went down to Salinas to J's sister's new place, and holy crap is it huge. It's got a nifty layout, and infinitely more space than their old house. We hadn't seen Natalie since before she was walking so it took a while for her to stop giving J and I the suspicious eye, but by the end of the night it was lots of carry-me arms, and where Sophie is usually all about her Uncle J, somehow this time I ended up with her hanging on me more often than not. I suspect it was that I was wearing a pink shirt so that boosted my coolness rating. It's interesting to see the ways her personality has changed now that she's a big sister. Sometimes I wish we lived a bit closer in order to visit more often.
Anyway, we hung out, ate food, played with dolls, tried to devise a plan to steal their adorable pug, and at the end of the evening I got the bonus of belated b-day gifts. See subject. I have also increased my fuzzy scarf collection by one, so I should probably put out some of the ones I don't wear often out onto the curb.
The drive was nice, and J and I talked a lot about the ways in which we'd like to focus on our projects for school and general creative things. I'm back to having a solid idea of where to go with my current assignments so I'm feeling very rejuvenated about them. Which is good, as I need to be doubly-focused this weekend, since I didn't actually get any extra days off, and the lab is closed tomorrow which is typically my dedicated time to go in and work all day on my homework!

I had to work part of the holiday, so I just counted the time I did have off as a good thing, and took it easy rather than make plans with others. I did make time to make a yummy dinner for myself from scratch:
Chicken with sun-dried tomatoes in dijon-riesling-cream sauce
Sesame noodles
Spicy peanut butter soup
Tart green salad with proscuitto and asiago and warm balsamic dressing
Warm butterscotch-maple pudding
I love mixing cuisines.

It's Friday morning here in Australia, and I'm reccing this essay:
http://randomneses.livejournal.com/479704.html
It's about the Snape/Lily pairing, and why there's so much Lily-bashing (apparently) that goes on in the Snapefen camp. I don't entirely agree with it, but it's thought-provoking,to say the least.
I look forward to hearing what other members think!
