First off, I wanted to say congratulations to Jennifer on the birth of Audrey Lynn.  I happened to stumble onto her blog this afternoon and saw the precious photo of her.  She’s just too cute.

Okay, so, yesterday was my dad’s moody day, which actually makes sense.  As a kid/teenager, I hated Thursdays.  Thursdays were always the days that he would act like a toddler who had had all of his toys taken away and then smashed.  So, him reverting into that attitude actually seemed rather normal for him.

Now that I’m back on the interwebz and all, I thought I would once again promote Urban Sunrise, the 18+ forum that I run with Haley, Kara, Ashley, Angela, Jef, Natasha, Bren, Kate, etc.  With my absence and everyone else having real life obligations, the boards kind of slowed down.  So, if you’re over 18 (or a really mature 17), then please go join.  If you’re not into boards, but know someone who is, then please spread the word.  I would really like to have them be a lot more active.  Plus, we don’t bite.  Or, I know I don’t.  I can’t guarantee that the rest of the staff doesn’t.

I forgot to eat yesterday almost all day.  I woke up yesterday at around 9.  I didn’t eat until 5 in the afternoon, which was about 20 hours since the last meal I had had.  Needless to say, I was about to fall over from weakness, tremors, etc. because my hypoglycemia was not very happy with me.

I’m glad that my computer is back, but it still seems to be different.  Maybe once I find a decent wallpaper to use, it will feel more like home.  I had been using the ones that Melody had made for my TFL Secret Santa–one with Alexander Skarsgård in black & white (for my artsy account) & the other with Eric & Sookie from S2 (on my main account).  I know that I could’ve backed some stuff, but I honestly didn’t think it would ever get lost.  I’m also going to have to find a whole new set of fonts & brushes, since those are all gone.

I hope that Kate doesn’t get offended, but this morning I changed up my livejournal look.  It had been up since February, and, though I loved it, I kind of wanted a new look.  Hopefully, I’ll be able to come up with something better than the look it has right at this moment, but I think it looks fairly nice.

I got a little annoyed today at Technorati.  I had requested that this site be put back on their index.  Apparently, when they reviewed it, they determined that it didn’t meet their guidelines.  I sent them an email back asking why my site didn’t meet their guidelines, yet so many others (that have similar content, use similar scripts, and even go a little more commercial) are okay’d.  It seemed a little fishy.  I don’t even know why this site was taken off their index to begin with.  I know that not being included in Technorati is not the end of the world, but it would be nice if they would at least explain better what was “wrong” with this site.

I’m really thirsty today, which I think may have something to do with weather…or maybe I’m not drinking enough. I don’t really keep track of it as well as I used to.  I think I’ve begun slacking on my Sjögren’s issues.  The sicca symptoms have been pretty bad lately.  I have to be careful in the fall, because it starts getting drier and slightly cooler and I forget that I still need to keep myself just as hydrated.  One day I will remember how to do all these things.

I’ve begun obsessing a little about what to do in February of next year, when the site turns 10.  I want to celebrate, but I just haven’t decided how to do that.  Any suggestions would be great.
