This is me and those are my plans. I think we'll leave off writing proper English until I've got basic down. I use slang, i do runons, I forget to capitalize, and I don't feel bad about it. Neither should you!

My point for the blog is this; to get into the habit of doing something everyday. to practice writing. Maybe meet interesting people. to post pictures of the food i make and of things i find interesting. also.. to learn how not to always put things into lists.

Step One.

i mean... er..

... Hi! Im a Gamer Chick! and i love to cook. Nearly as much as i love VG(video games silly). Im upbeat unless im not. Im CRANKY when i first wake up. I love the idea of pie and making foods in miniature. My biggest (heroes/people whos work i love) are Michio Kaku, Alton Brown, Paul Gauguin, (.____.), Paula Deen, Eddie Izzard, Monty Python Crew, and all people who just ran out of my head and popped round the corner for a pint. Love old movies, but favorite movie of all time is Monty Python and the Holy Grail! I've been witnessed to quote that movie in my sleep. I like making people feels slightly confused and out of depth. if I've known you 5 seconds ill be willing to bake you something. I recently moved to the hippiest city in Montana, out of the 5 they have. Can you tell im not from here? Not one me'self though.

This year, along with millions more, I've resolved to get into shape. Thing is though, this time last year i was pretty danged close. Navy Recruit, long story short, I'm not anymore.

Here's the gritty, I am just over 5'1'' ..or is it 5''1' .. but i weigh.. *cough160cough*.. yes. So the time is nigh to make sure my conflicting, yet oh so compatible loves of VG and Food dont come bite me in my giant peach.. im talking James' here. Im tiny, i got curves, but down there its like ...well.. lets just say i could drop an apple and it would orbit... but in my case it would more likly be a dumpling.. fried.. with gravy..

Also, my education sort of stopped at HS. Im smart, have varied interests, read alot. but none of this counts diddly to a college entrance exam when you barely graduated. Longer story, shorter answer, Difficult home life. I hope to amend this by learning languages, ala French, Russian, Japanese, Chinese (mandarin), and to pick back up my spanish. Also i would love to relearn the piano. there's a sweet machine at Best Buy for 375 that can just about spin the moon. ill put that on my birthday list. Which is in late Sept. In Case you're thinking of a gift. (p_q) thats the ever popular Dual monocle happy face.

Oh..also.. Tomorrow is my 1yr Dating The Doctor. yay us! we are so goddamned like the same person. Cept hes a tall white MT Bred stud of a man, and ima short tan mixbreed of ItaliaJapenGermaFrenchCanadiaNWesternEuropeEastCoast kinda gal. I date him cause hes purty. ahur! ahur! I did mention i was a dork yes? good. moving on.

If you do anything with your life, make someone elses better.

The steps ive taken towards my goals are such, buy actual veggies(parsley doesnt count anymore) acquire multiple language learning devices, DS game, Rosetta stone/pimsleur, Russian for dummies (actual present from The Doctor, aint he sweet) oh I wubs him. I thought seriously about working out.. and according to a show i watched on the science channel, that is actually more effective that the actual workout!!.... *ahem...cough....(<.<)(>.>)*... So i might be off to a slow start, but i stopped frying things.... earlier today... (>.<).. but i drank a lot of juice! yay Juice! delicious.. fast disappearing Juice. I swear if the faucets ran Juicy Juice Berry from them .. or better that from the cold and a Tangy White Grape from the hot.. mmmmmhmm... both running cold of course.. Showers would be completely useless but completely delicious!!

I think things have been a bit hard to stick to because of a lil thing called MapleStory. Bloody addictive, slightly repetitive, annoying when you cant jump, game. A 2d MMORPG, aka, go online and fight monsters with your friends. Ill come back to that in another post. Look it up, learn it, loves it, addict it. I've taken to creating some of the monsters in clay and acrylic paint. they are loverly. But useless to finding me a job, oh i forgot, unemployed because of recent move and the holidays. so that will be another fun thing. job hunting AFTER the shopping season. All the things im really good/any good at dont really make you money unless you "get discovered" or have a degree in. Ala, Art, food, cuddling, being a confidant, ego cheering, crafts, and collecting research material. I kid you not, my virtual library could restart civilization if anything apocalipticish happened. and you'ld have enough scifi books to ... well.. lets just say ive nearly got them all. (hardly exaggerating either).

QN(quick note) I like my tomato juice/v8 at room temp cause cold it kinda tastes like blood.. not a flavor I wake up in the morning craving... its usually late afternoon BLEGH!! hehe. j/k Vamps are more my sister's thing.

Right right, 4 siblings, two of each, Bro, me, sis, bro, sis. Two teens, and one much younger. She was our 'Surprise'! I wubs dem too! Ill give them code names as blogs get less listy and more story. but my butt hurts, I've no chair, i've pillows. Ima lounger. if i could saw off the bottom part of my bigblu comfy chair and use it i would.. hmm.... (<.<)(>.>)...where did i ... DRAT left my sawzall in my other shorts. *snaps fingers* .. i guess that chair is safe for now... for... now.....

That wasnt a quick note at all!! Oh Blog you've made a liar out of me already! Oh well since my
reputation is ruined i guess ill just goto bed and make the better of it tomorrow. er... later today. Woot! sleep! Doctor snuggles!!! Double Woot! Peace and may your pies be flakey and ala mode.
