Shiney happy thoughts for the weekend

[annwfyn]

• I have new sneakers from New Look. They are black canvas, covered in many brightly coloured stars, with white rubber toes - they're like converse trainers with more stars. They were £8, and look deeply cheerful on my feet.



• I spent this morning running around in pixelated world, collecting small imaginary pets. Or, to be more precise, I now have two new shiney pets in World of Warcraft. I have a chicken and a rabbit. I know this is sad, but strangely, I can live with that.



• I have been wearing a gorgeous, edible scent all day. I am wearing 'Jack', by the Black Phoenix Alchemy Laboratory, and it smells of pumpkins, butterscotch, and warm autumn nights. I'm not sure what I can use the scent for - it's not a sexy evening scent, or a summery afternoon scent, or a comforting 'cuddle me' scent - but it's nice and it makes me feel all warm inside.



• I got to chat to my li'l sis for an hour on the phone today, which was lovely, and I found out that my not-quite-brother-in-law is beginning to get interviews for proper 3D modelling work. This is fab, for he is very talented, very hard working, and really deserves it.



• I have a brand new DVD - Blood & Chocolate - which is the film adaption of one of my favourite books. Maybe it will be a thing of awful and hideousness, but right now I'm still in that stage where I can have Hope (tm).

What are your happy thoughts for the weekend?

I am also a pet collector! I have a ton on both my characters. And I know where they all are if your ever curious.

My prize ones are the nether whelp from the collector's edition, Sleepy Willy this baby beholder that falls asleep from children's week, and my spirit of summer little glowy red ball from the fire festival quests.

Hey do you get the oceanic servers? I think your right, I can't reach the American ones. But we might both be able to see the Oceanic ones. Curious now.

I shall go and poke the oceanic servers and see if I can.

My prize pet is my panda cub from the original collector's edition, which was given to me as a gift when I started playing. It is a thing of shininess. Other than that, I'm quite fond of the chicken at the moment. I clucked to get that chicken!

And I'm always interested in knowing where shiney new pets are. ATM, I think I'm limited by being relatively ickle and only being lvl 22, but I am going up in the world steadily!

Oo you got the panda. Alot of them seem to be seasonal, so watch for seasonal events. At christmas you can get a little pet gnome or reindeer!

Ah yeah I remember the chicken clucking. Harder for us Horde folk since we have to come over there and mow people down to have space for clucking.

Theres a pet vendor in each city too. I think theres lady right outside stormwind that sells kitties. And in Booty Bay a goblin sells parots. If you know anyone in Outland theres a vendor in the Consortium base that sells mana wyrms and dragonhawks. Sometimes in the Goblin Auction Houses you'll find horde only pets being sold across lines too.

Theres alot of random drop ones too. Like the dragon whelpings from the various whelpling mobs.

And at the height of fishing there is a magical crawdad named Mr. Pinchy.

Anyways, it seems wierd that Americans can't access the European servers. I guess so that they don't get burdened maybe. And maybe Oceanic are the servers that bridge the gap. Odd. Lemme know.

Happy thoughts this weekend:

I'm going to buy birthday presents for myself, with the gift cards my mom and sister sent me; books and dvds, two of my favourite things =D

Hoping to land a job with the resumes I'm passing out tomorrow -crosses fingers-

Planning my boyfriend's trip to see me at the end of the month!

That's all I can come up with; I don't have much to do, ha.

Ooooh - Jack! Unless the update comes up trumps next time, that's what I'm getting a bottle of. Luckily Rikk also thinks it smells lovely :D

I'm currently happy about my lovely nieces who I get to spend the weekend with, seeing my family and rikk, and the fact that I have a new car.

My happy thoughts for the weekend are...

"oh I'm off to London in a couple of hours with little planned apart from watching the start of the tour de france. Yay!
I wonder who I can meet up with whilst I'm there"

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

You're in London?

Damnit - I think I'm booked most of the weekend. You're not around in the evening to come to the Collge Arms and play Anton or something are you?

(btw, the tour de france goes right past my house. It's very strange. It sounds wrong, somehow)

I don't have any...

...but that's not as bad as it sounds.

What I do have, are some hopeful thoughts. Hope that I should be finished with the moving and cleaning by the end of tomorrow, and that then, I can get some rest, relax a bit, and settle in to the new house.

So yeah, nothing that makes me bouncy and happy, as there's still a lot of work between here and there, but there is hope, that the future will get better, and soon.

I have arranged to have lunch next weekend with an old friend who dropped out of sight completely when he left Exony. This is a good thing :)

You have the same shoes as starlight55, methinx!

[annwfyn.livejournal.com]

You may well be right. And they are lovely and very shiney. I congratulate your young lady on her excellent taste in footwear.

* Sorting more Insurrection stuff

I have a relaxing weekend doing not very much with my beloved.

I managed to have a complex discussion in Japanese with my pet kimono lady about yes, really, I am too fat for normal kimono, can she please keep the cool big ones aside for me.

I have pretty kimono accessories to practice my kitsuke with.

Libre-cat is eating food again :)

- oh and the weather is looking up.......briefly......I'm still packing my rain macs!
