Worried about Reesa

Anyone know if captainbitchy (AKA Reesa) is ok? Her LJ has been deleted and her MySpace has vanished too. The only contact info I have left for her is snail mail and I have no idea how up to date that is, and writing to Florida may take some time...

She's a real sweetie who's been an absolute gem to me and I love her to bits, so I'm worried that she's vanished... I noticed her MySpace went ages ago and she'd been quiet on LJ but I hoped she'd reappear...

I'm leaving this as a public post just in case she reads this, but all comments are screened.

Back to MAC is awesome... I just took in 6 empty eyeshadows and I got a lipstick free. Yay! I did try on a gorgeous red, trying to look like a 50s siren but I just don't think I can pull it off, especially as I normally do OTT eyes, so I got a pretty everyday, natural colour called "Spirit".

Urggh. I just found a picture of me with such lovely toned abs in a photoshoot with Hangar25 probably about 3 years ago. Oh how I miss those abs. I'm just big and wobbly round the middle now. My mother warned me that when I hit my 20s I'd start expanding but I never thought it would happen... but no.. the last 3 years I've spent growing outwards.

I want to be skinny again. I hated being underweight at the time but underweight models get all the work... I'm a big blob now, people see photos like that on my model profiles and think I'd be good to work with but I don't have the heart to reply and turn up as wobbly model who takes a week in photoshop to look presentable, but I don't have the heart to delete my profiles either 'just in case'...

I wish I could be arsed to exercise properly. Lanky keeps yelling at me about what I eat but I think it's really just lack of exercise more than poor diet...

If the magic enthusiasm faeries could pay me a visit to make exercise seem doable that would be grand. If not, the magic 'I don't give a fuck if I'm fat' faeries would do to stop me feeling like a lard-arse.

I've been underweight as long as I can remember, being squidgey in the middle just ain't me.

Look at the icon... see the ABS??? Abs of steel they was.

Owie Owie!

Ow. Mort bit my thumb really hard and it fooking hurts. It's stopped bleeding like mad as I've plopped a plaster on (with savlon after washing it well with antibacterial soap) though there is 'a little bit of seepage darling' through the edge. It feels really deep, I can feel it throbbing right down near the bone I'm sure. Owwwwww!

Any advice on stopping hamster bites hurting? It's only the 2nd time he's ever bitten me and the first time he was tiny and had never seen feet before so thought they might be edible. He did try and nip me a bit once because I'd bleached my hair and the smell scared him, but he has never bitten me without warning before!

The daftest thing right now is that despite the fact my thumb REALLY hurts rather a lot, I feel guilty that I upset him that much that he bit me... He's not a bitey hamster so I'm worried I upset the poor love. I filled his food dish then scooped him up for a cuddle so maybe he was annoyed that I cuddled him before he had chance to inspect the new food supply, or maybe he was just still quite sleepy. Whatever.. I still feel guilty that I hurt his ickle feelings...

Owie!

Well I haven't updated for a little while have I? Yes it's Warcraft's fault. Anyway... Christmas.

Christmas day was good. Aidan spent the day with us (Lanky's brother) and we spent most of the day eating posh crisps and crimbo choccies whilst watching the Family Guy series 5 DVD. Truly a blissful day! Good job we all have the same idea of having fun! The meal went well, despite me panicking. The Turkey was LOVELY it wasn't dry and it tasted yum! Success! Dessert provided by Sara Lee and her lovely Gateux of chocolatey goodness. (By this point Simon (BlackWing) turned up and helped with the cake) More Family Guy, Some Catherine Tate and Doctor Who. Crackers were pulled. Silly hats were worn... All in all a great day.

Presents? Well I had some real treats. My Lush Secret Santa was a star and even Tiggy was happy with his bit (though he had it on Saturday when I took over his presents!) Lanky bought me a HUUUGE Secret Stash from Lush (about 100 squids worth of Lush!!) and apparently there is another bit on it's way for me o_0 Ashe and Shaz bought me Chuckanucka the Ugly Doll *squee!* Corrine bought me some cool pink and black stripy fingerless gloves/sleeves which I am wearing now! (I'm sure I hadn't mentioned my fetish for pink and black stripey things for ages so she must know me really well!) My parents got me a beautiful twinkly DKNY watch that I picked out a few months ago. So sparkly! They also got me some purple leather gloves, some pyjamas and slippers (I normally get those every year!) a Kittens diary, chocolates and a 'Oxfam Food Parcel' as they call it between me and Lanky (basically a hamper of munchy food we like, like crisps, biccies, cheese and choccies). Lanky's mum got me a pretty necklace and a cute squidgy cuddly reindeer (hung on the tree now), Lanky's Aunt and Uncle got me some MAC makeup, My gran gave us £100 between us, my brother gave us £300 (!!) and umm.. I got more chocolate from people, and some shower gel... umm.. there's probably more. Sorry if I missed anyone ^__^

Yesterday I braved the sales crowds for Lush's Big Freeze (spend £15 get ANY item free!) There were no hatboxes left, they had all gone before Christmas, but I still got a Honey Farm, a Happy Christmas and a Ginger perfume free... I spent about £46 and got about£52 worth of stuff free. I love Lush :D I had to organise my stash as well with so many new editions and I took an photo which I may upload later. I have a LOT of Lush...

So.. now I'm sat here ready to play Warcraft now I've updated you all...

Fingerless gloves to keep gaming hands warm? Check
Double Duvet to protect from the harsh environment of the server room in periods of inactivity? Check
Chocolate lip balm to calm hunger pangs during important gaming time? Check
Bottle of Coke to keep me fuelled? Check

Well I appear to be cleared for take off so I'll be engrossed is WoW until I next need a wee... tatty bye.

w00t! I've stayed awake since I woke up around midday! I'm really finding it hard not to nod off now though. Lanky said I sounded drunk earlier o_0 I'm guesing that's what happens when you fight The Sleep. I'm seeing on doctor on Monday though so hopefully I'll know what's up then!

Well, I've just been to the venue for the wedding to discuss final arrangement type things and I'm really chuffed, it's all going to be lovely dahrlings! Then when I got back I had a call about my crown and bouquet and the people there were very helpful with choosing crystal colours.

Later on I'm meeting Gracie pants ( p0is0n_girl ) who's doing my photography so I can poke her about that and ply her with alcomafrol (as is the way!)

I think my hair extensions are organised now too! 15th September I'll be going down to Nodnol for it!

Hopefully wedding stuff is coming together... I'm panicking a lot less right now. Still panicking.. but the alert level has been lowered to yellowy-orange.

ZOOOOOM!!! (that's the sound of me being busy...)
