Sleepless

Lots of things have happened since I actually took the time to blog last.
Someone once said that when one door closes, another opens. And I never thought I'd be grateful for that - not after the last door closed back in 2007. But recently, instead of the door closing on me, I closed it myself. At first it was difficult to adjust until I realized how truly blissful I'd become. With that one door closed, I was able to focus on other things, and was able to reconnect with some older friends of mine, which has been fabulous. But as to a new door opening, well, I have to admit, that has been truly amazing.
I have been blessed with a new friend. I call her my mind twin, because literally, we are. Totally separated at birth by a few years and couple hundred miles. It's absolutely insane how we clicked. It started with a shared love of CSI: New York and the X-Files when eventually that snowballed into an avalanche of what can only be described as epicness. Hehe. I love my Julia.

So the other day I got really, really bored listening to one of my new favorite songs, and I realized that Jennulia (Jenna + Julia. Is not an STD. Is writers) needed their own fanvid. So I made one with Windows Movie Maker (lol, yeah. It's fail. I am aware of this.)

So anyways, yeah. Here's a video of "Jennulia in a Nutshell."

Zero Sum

What's new, what's new... what isn't new?

I met Gwen Stephani on the Fourth of July. Like, how crazy is that? I work at the Mall of America, and was tending to the ride I operate when she walked by with her band peeps and kid (whom is incredibly cute btw.) I didn't even recognize her at first, until my supervisor mentioned it to me. Gwen and the rest of her peeps were so sweet and down-to-earth.

So, in the world of art, my creation, Synnöve, finally exists. Thanks to RavenSkar for letting me use the image. But anyways, there's another highlight.

Oh! Juliboo (Julia) and I are working on a CSI: New York fanfic that has to do with Don Flack buying a PC and Stella with her iPhone of DOOM. It's pretty epic win so far.

The Harry Potter movie actually didn't suck.

I caved in to peer pressure and got a Twitter. You can find it here: twitter.com/gerkonanaken
