Need advice

Thinking of getting my own www domain... Any recs for host companies etc?

Oh and PS: I've also done a friends cut. Half the people on my list I barely know who you are and I'm sure you had no idea who I was. It's nothing personal really. If you're desperate to be added back then I'll add ya back.

i'm ok really

Geoff and I broke up. No I don't want to talk about it.

I'm back in Northam. *groan*

I have no goals.

But I'm still a believer in love. And Geoff will be the one who loses out in the long run. Not me.

Besides I have hot footballers to perve on. Haha right...

Much love to all of you.

Anyone else not have any idea about what they want to do with their lives?

I have no career goals whatsoever.

I am the guy who came out to the entire school in his senior speech and got a standing ovation for his courage.

I am the girl who kisses her girlfriend on the sidewalk and laughs at those who glare.

We are the couple who planned and studied and got a damn good lawyer and BEAT the state that wanted to take our child away.

We are the ones who took martial arts classes and carry pepper spray and are just too dangerous to gay bash.

I am the transgender person who uses the bathroom that suits me, and demands that any complaining staff explain their complaint to my face in front of the entire restaurant--and shares with my other trans friends which restaurants don't raise a stink.

I am the mother who told her lesbian daughter to invite her girlfriend over for dinner.

I am the father who punished his son for calling you a fag.

I am the preacher who told my congregation that love, not hate, is the definition of a true follower of God.

I am the girl who did not learn the meaning of "homosexual" until high school but never thought to question why two men might be kissing.

I am the woman who argues (quite loudly and vehemently) with the bigots who insist that you do not have the right to marry or raise children.

We are the high school class who agrees, unanimously, along with our teacher, that love should be all that matters.

If you agree, repost this. Do it. You don't have to be afraid. You can handle it. You're stronger than you think.

I am making a difference. Hate will not win.

I'll still love you if you don't repost it though

I'm a Grandma!

My cat just had four kittens. One was still born. I absolutely bawled when that happened. But the others are all doing well. Two tabbies and a tortiseshell.

I'm in a funk. I work. I sleep. I clean.

Photoshop is slowly killing me. I stare at it but are unable to come up with anything decent. I wish I was talented or at least average at it.

I feel like I'm suffocating under the weight of the world.

I just can't raise my mood above depressed.

Medication isn't working.

God I'm pathetic.

OMFG!!!!

Engagement party

2006-02-06T01:24:05Z

Home from work... Woohoo!

My engagement party was on Saturday night. It was awesome. I got lots of presents though I am now the queen of the tea towels... *shrugs* But I got a frozen dessert aka slushy maker so all is good in the world. I also got a wok, a really nice vase, a wok plus wok accessories (it has more accessories than I do... I'm a failure as a girl!), serving dishes, silver wine goblets from Singapore, tupperware, photo frames, many a gift voucher and a lot more stuff... Plus I still have presents to come like my dryer and Sarah is getting me something after she gets paid.

I can't wait till we move. I get to decorate and become all Martha Stewart -like (it saddens me that I have become one of "those" people) But it's Geoff's and my first home and I have four bedrooms, two bedrooms, plus other rooms, and less rent to pay...

So hopefully I'll get broadband back soon... woo!

Back to the party it was awesome to see everyone and catch up. And meet Geoff's mates etc who I was yet to meet. Oh and Nat is going to give me wifery lessons so Geoff is in trouble!!

But please people RSVP if you are invited to something. I don't care if you're can't come for some reason but if you don't reply I have to assume you are coming and cater (ie: buy food, drinks etc) for you... So I end up out of pocket and I'm struggling cashwise as is.That's just my bitch for the day. ;)

Summer In The City

2006-01-02T16:05:20Z

It's humid. It's been raining off and on here. The smell of rain is floating through the house.

Geoff's playing playstation. I'm sitting here writing. And looking for some things to make.

I'm tired. But I don't want to sleep.

I have a job interview on Wednesday.

New Years I got trashed and suffered a mental setback. Alcohol is not my friend anymore.

Christmas was a 3-day slog.

Hope all is well. Hope you all got what you wanted from Santa. Roll on 2006. Farewell 2005.

I'm so tired.....

Picture me, here I am innocently writing in my journal, and next thing I am poked repeatedly by some violent person known as Sarah or Johnny whichever of her split personalities comes to the fore.

Writers block is now kicking in.

Kick kick kick.

Sarah and I are going to start a cult... wanna join? No mass suicides people, afterall, do you really think I wanna do more cleaning up?

Geooooooffrey comes home on Friday. Wahoo!!

Here comes the bride...

2005-12-02T01:03:34Z

So... how are we all? Hope all is well and you are all running wild. ;)

I've been working and shit like that. Geoff is working away at the moment. So I'm missing him like crazy. *whimper* He'll be back not this weekend, but next weekend for a couple of days before he goes away for another week. *sigh* But whatever, his job pays well. And we need money...

So he proposed last Saturday. It was a spur of the moment thing. I won't get my engagement ring until after he gets back. He's putting some thought and effort into it. But the upside is that he's promised me a "proper" romantic proposal when he gets it. As this is what I got...

Him: (in bedroom, sitting next to me on the bed) I want to ask you something but I don't want to because I know what you'll say
Me: *oblivious* Well I won't know unless you ask me
(this continues on for a minute or so then finally...)
Him: *sighs* Fine *gets down on one knee infront of me, I nearly die* Katherine Leyden, will you marry me?
Me: YES! *flings arms around him*

*sniff* Love him.

I found my dress yesterday by accident. Sarah and I went to check out some prices and somehow I ended up trying a few on. The second one is the one for me. It's so gorgeous. I felt like a princess in it. So I'll go back next week and out it on layby.

Now I just have to get everything else organised. We've sort of tentatively planned for November 2006.

*fingers crossed*

Hi all. Remember me? You had better. :p

Sorry for my disappearing act I went on a vacation, some shit happened and I sorta ended up not really going home... To cut a long story short I now live with Geoff. Love him so much.

So yeah today my psych finally got his act together and diagnosed me with something more fitting then just general depression. Apparently I have borderline personality disorder. From what I've read about it so far, it fits me to a tee. Kinda nice to know I'm not just fucked up.

So yes I'm now trying to find a job and am totally broke. Bah.

Much love to you all.
