My journal is sometimes friends only. I'll make a friends-only post on occasion. Just remember, friends or not, be nice in commenting on my entries. If you'd like to add me, go right ahead. Don't be shy! Illyria doesn't bite. Though, she may just kill you with her bare hands. Be careful.

Ladies and Gerbils, here is my Twitter:

Eh, not really. Everything that he does that annoys me I pretty much tell him about. Sometimes constantly. Hehe.

 Hello, all. I realize I haven't actually posted updates since before I left. Sorry. My fault. I see having TV again is a bad thing. A very bad thing. It's distracting. Even when there's nothing good on, you desperately search through the channels, looking for something even the slightest bit interesting to watch. It's a disease, all right. I'm better off without it.

In other news, we're going to a concert tonight, at the Borgata. It's The Roots, the band that plays for the Jimmy Fallon show. I hope I'll enjoy it, but I'm not sure. I know Craige will, because he's been looking forward to this for months. Dunno if we're getting anything to eat first, I'll have to see.

Were going out tomorrow. There's a Halloween party at the Tropicana, at the Quarter. It should be fun. I'm exited, I've never been to a big Halloween party before. I wanted to have plenty of time to get costumes for us, but it seems that I always think I have more time, but I don't. We're going to have to end up getting our costumes tomorrow. That's right,  we're buying our costumes on Halloween. I don't think I've ever cut it that close in my life. Oh, well. I think we're going with my original suggestion; Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas, and Dr. Finklestein, the mad scientist that created her. Hopefully, we can get the things for that costume, otherwise I don't know what we'll do. Craige might end up going as Jack instead. I can do some skull makeup for him in lieu of a mask, because that might be more comfortable. I was thinking Dr. Horrible and Penny would be awesome, but we didn't have enough time to plan that. We would have had to go shopping for some good Penny clothes for Craige to wear. Well, maybe next year.

I'll post some more of my exploits later, including our hotel stay. For now, I must get dressed. Toodles.

Cool. Celiacs are getting more recognition now. I love it.

I do indeed. I have him right now, and I shall be with him tomorrow. It's 5:26. 24 Hours and...about 30 minutes. The train gets into Atlantic City about 5:53 According to the confirmation sheet-thingy I printed out the other day. I have almost everything packed that I need. I can hardly wait.

God, I am so BORED! I have to wait until Craige calls me tonight, so we can watch X Files before I go to bed. I have to go to bed early. Really, really early. Dad says we should leave the house around 7 to get there on time for the train, Which means I have to get up around 6-ish. Oy. I should have been getting up even earlier than I have been to get ready. Damn. I really must get to bed as early as possible. I have no idea how long it'll take me to fall alseep, I hope not long at all.

Sigh. I supppose I should go do the dishes.

A word/phrase I love for a reason I cannot discern: "Clusterfuck".

Suggestions for "Clusterfuck" by spellcheck: Cluster, Lackluster, Blusterous, Knuckleduster. What the hell is a knuckleduster?

I realized I shouldn't be online so much. I'm getting more and more bored with online activities, and bored with the Sims 2. It happens, I'll be more interested again some time down the road. It cycles that way. The thing is, I'm bored to death with computer things, but I'm still here. Why? Why can't I just go away? I think it's become such a habit for me that I keep thinking if I search the computer/internet long enough, I'll find something to entertain myself. I'm not sure that's the best attitude, for anyone, really. I should go find a snack and then go read some of one of the marvelous books Craige bought me for my birthday. I haven't read any of them yet, but I'm sure they're all marvelous. I know later on I'll be back on the comp to watch tv shows with my love, but I do that every night. It's just a way to see him every day. It's like I'm hanging out with him at the end of every day. It's rather nice. Of course, I'm getting tired of this facsimile, and I'm dying(not literally) to go see him. Sometime soon, maybe near the beginning of October. Sarah said she might take off school and come with me, which would be so awesome. She'd probably take the train down with me, and take the train or bus back up later. She'd probably stay about a week, whereas I'd definitely want to stay at least two weeks. Ah, anyway, I really should be going, must find something to do until my love calls me.

Location detector says Northville. Close, but no cigar.

Hooray, it's my birthday! I'm 24 today, which is not old. It's not. Anyway, Sarah and Jorden are coming over later for dinner. I am helping to prepare my foods later on. It's going to be appetizers and fun foods today. Mmm. Goodness. Pizza, Mozzarella sticks, perhaps some garlic knots if I can wrangle it, bacon water-chestnut appetizers, which are really yummy. I wanted to make a gluten free onion bloom, 'cause I found a recipie online, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Grr. Oh, well. Also, Gluten Free birthday cake! For the first time ever, I get a guilt-free birthday cake! Yellow cake mix with chocolate frosting. A very thin layer of frosting, because my teeth still hurt. Craige bought me great birthday presents this year! I shall show them to you later, because apparently the usb cord is broken. Grr. Sigh. Dunno if there's another. Might have to take pics later with my webcam, instead. I will close with posts from years past, the ones on or near my birthday. A few of them I didn't actually make on my birthday but did talk about it in them.

It's interesting to see how I've grown, and how much different things are this year as opposed to last year, the year before that, etc. If  anyone wants to know about the stuff in these posts, just ask me, and I shall give you an update. I know some of you have joined the mixed nuts after I made those posts. How do I feel on my birthday? Well, I feel older. I think more mature, and I'm growing emotionally. I'm becoming more ready for things that I know I wasn't ready for in past years, such as getting my own place. I know I'll enjoy that. and who knows? Maybe this time next year I'm be posting from my own computer, in my own apartment, with Craige. Ah. That would be so nice. Well, I shall try to make more actual posts, like I promised. as always, thank you for reading my ramblings.

Yes, I think they are much more likely to cheat then. That's pretty obvious. I do indeed believe in marriage, but I think it's a personal choice for each couple(straight or gay, thank you!). I don't think people need to get married. If they both want to, then go right ahead. I know some people think getting married is something everyone should be forced to do, especially women. That's definitely not right. You should only be married if you want to be with your love forever. Marriage isn't about pleasing anybody's deities, it's about showing the person you love that you want to be with only them, for the rest of your lives.

I realize how bad my problems with gluten are, how much I've lapsed on my diet lately. At the present, I'm reading a thread in the celiac comm about someone who has problems resisting foods with gluten, just like I do. I think I'm going to go write negative stuff about gluten on the chalkboard decals in my room, stuff like, "Eating gluten gives you CANCER!" Because it very well could. I know Mom and Dad won't like this, but I'm going to ask for my own pots, pans, and instruments for myself, which nobody is allowed to use but me, A.K.A. "Dedicated" stuff. The only reason they won't like it is because this costs money for extra pans, which we are low on at the moment. At least I know that when Craige and I have our own place one day, he's okay with our house being completely gluten free. Just have to deal here, the best I can.

Illyria in my icon here, because I'm giving the "axe" to my glutening, and Illyria's one tough chick. I think maybe it would help to picture myself as Illyria, with the axe, and gluten containing foods as my adversaries. That's a good trick I just thought up. I need to wise up and start seeing my eating gluten as an addiction, one I have to fight, and Illyria's perfect for the job.

My webcam and microphone. Without them, I wouldn't be able to see and talk to my love every day. Sure, there's the phone, but it's not the same. With my webcam and mic, it's like actually being in the same room with him every day. It helps me miss him less.

The location detector thinks I'm in Inlet. Strike two, detector.

• 18:56 He's alright, but now everyone's pissed. Dad called the troopers. I didn't see it, just heard a lot of people screaming angrily. #
• 18:57 It was John Gann, I think. Little dickhead. #

Well, getting ready to leave for the Albany airport right now. I should actually be getting dressed, but I think somebody's using the bathroom. Still, best not to linger here lest I get chewed out for not getting ready. However, I shall try to take pictures of the cool sculptures I see at that Albany airport. They have some cool ones there that I saw a few years ago when we went. Luckily, I have my iPod charged, with plenty of music, my journal(my paper one), pencil, colored pencils, and a fine-point marker for drawing and such, so hopefully I won't be incredibly bored. I laways look forward to new experiences, and flying is relatively new to me, only took a plane once before. I thought it was so cool, looking down at all those buildings from above. Note to self, do not do that for an extended period this time, last time it gave you a headache. Anyway, I should get going, plus I really have to pee, so I'll make another post whenever I can. I haven't mad many new posts lately because I didn't think there was much to post about. I'll try to post more often, even if it's just for trivial stuff. Bye for now, folks.
