A Luxurious Bathroom

If you could renovate one part of your house, which part of your house would it be and why? If someone were to ask me that question, I know right away that I'd scream bathroom! I have a thing with bathrooms. After all, when you think about it, we spend more time in the bathroom than anywhere else in our house. Think about it. So, I want a big, luxurious bathroom, complete with a jacuzzi, a bath tub built for two and a shower like that on The Sims 2 (you know, the one with like 3 separate shower heads, so cool). I also want 2 separate sinks, one for me and one for B, complete with a ginormous mirror and I want a huge plasma tv there as well, so I can watch my favorite soap while soaking in the tub. I can just go on and on about my dream bathroom! The possibilities are endless! There are so many cool features I can think of. Ooh! If I can I probably would get a game console in there too, but it'd have to be water proof, I don't want to die of electrocution! So anyway, that's what I want my bathroom to look like. Can't picture it? Let the following pictures help you.

Of course we'd have to decide on a theme, so it'll come out perfect. B and I have some major plans on our bathroom, but because of financial reasons, we have to settle for what's practical and what works, rather than what we really want. I want so many stuff on betterbathrooms.com but for now, all I can do is dream until that day comes that we can afford some major renovations.

A PHAT Post

PHAT -- An adjective used in pop culture to express approval. Hence, someone or something that is phat could be entertaining, intelligent, attractive or otherwise to be admired.

I was supposed to post this yesterday as a surprise to one of my bestest friends online, but oh my gosh, my sudden sleep disorder kicked in and I fell asleep, B wanted to use the lappy, so I let him while I freshened up and stuff, but it took him like 10 years to finish that I fell asleep, he said he tried to wake me but I told him to just turn it off. Of course I don't remember ever saying that. So anyway, here we are. This post is 11 days delayed. Yes, 11 days. I would've posted this sooner but I had all sorts of problems with JS Kit and then I had the crazies and I was distracted by the Twilight Saga. So now that I feel right and I feel happy again, I feel that now is the right time to make a post about Life According to Me and her new domain. This post is dedicated to Debbie a.k.a. Phatelara, without her I would've been so lost I would've probably cried. She figured everything out, all I did was choose the name, which is hard, but compared to what she had to do, it was the easiest part of the whole process.

Visit Debbie a.k.a. Phatelara's awesome blogs!

As you all know, I had quite a few domain names on my list, and I had a few more suggestions made at the last minute and I couldn't decide and so I asked you, my readers, to help me choose, I thank those who took the time to help me.

It came down to a choice between Bem's www.aneticed.com and Shemah's www.diaryofane.com. The votes helped me make a decision and in the end, I chose Shemah's www.diaryofane.com because this blog is my virtual diary and I do feel like my writing style is kinda diary-ish in style. Thanks Shemah!

Thanks to everyone who suggested a domain name and thanks to everyone who also helped me make my decision.

So now, my new domain name is www.diaryofane.com

Also if you could help me out by voting for me on Technorati and subscribing to my rss feed, I would totally be grateful!

Or, if you would prefer to subscribe via e-mail please check out the subscribe via e-mail widget on my sidebar. Thanks!

I LOVE YOU Debbie a.k.a. Phatelara!

Random Tuesday Thoughts: Not Normal, The Sims and A Cameo*

It's Random Tuesday Thoughts! That time of the week where we are allowed to be as random as we can!

I can feel that this is a much better week for me plus, I think the crazies are back in the little corner in my head until my next episode. So I am glad I am feeling okay, not normal, I never feel normal. LOL.

If you have been a follower or you frequent this blog and my other blog, then you probably know that, I love the SIMS! I am currently learning how to make my own SIMS 2 video. Let's see how that goes, I just hope I can manage to finish it, you know how lazy I can be, especially if things don't go my way, so if it's hard and it frustrates me, I'll probably put it off until I'm in a better mood.

I want to be a TWITTER-LEBRITY.

B made it to the front page of the local weekly newspaper this week. LOL. Check it out. It is so unmistakably him. Ironically, during that time, he was on his way to the local newspaper's office to drop off some ads since he is the Branch Marketing Manager of the mall he works at.

Lucas bit me twice while he was breast feeding today. One bite on each boob. No blood, but it fucking freakin hurts.

I have been cursing a lot lately, I don't know where this sudden urge to curse came from and I'm sorry if I offend anyone.

I am a Twilight fanatic. I NEVER thought I would be, but I am. OMG how embarrassing. The most embarrassing thing is I can't shut the fuck up about Twilight! I loooved the books so much! Not so crazy about the movie, but New Moon looks promising. And OMG have you seen Taylor Lautner a.k.a. Jacob Black? Gorgeous. I just have to remember that he's technically 40 years old in wolf years. LOL.

I guess that is all the randomness in me for this week. Wanna play? Go check out my fave superhero, grab the button, get random and communicate with Mr. Linky.

Happy Tuesday Everyone!

Music Monday: With A Smile by The Eraserheads*

Hurray for Mondays! Well, after my crazy post, I bet you're wondering why I'm happy all of a sudden. Like I said, I think I'm crazy. LOL. No seriously, I feel happier today. Don't ask me why, because I don't know why, I just feel happier.

Anyway, it's my Dad's 48th birthday on Thursday, July 16, 2009, and I wanted to dedicate my Music Monday this week to him. I love my Dad, and even though time was stolen from us by fate, I am a daddy's girl and I don't think that will ever change. I remember when I was younger my Dad would belt out a tune while doing the laundry or any other house chore and I can remember that he used to sing this song, like a lot. I think it was one of his all time favorites, because he sang to it, all. the. time. I can't blame him though, it is a beautiful song, and whenever I hear it, he is always the first person that comes to my mind. Several versions of this song were made, but I still prefer the original version. Here's With A Smile by a legendary local band here in the Philippines, The Eraserheads. Too bad they disbanded already because of "undisclosed" reasons, but they did have a reunion concert not too long ago, I would've loved to have taken my dad to that concert, but I just didn't have the means. So anyway, I hope you enjoy the song as much as my dad and I do.

Me and my Dad, September 2008.

Me, my Dad and my sister, Coy, back when she had hair..

Hey Dad, Happy Birthday! I love you and I miss you so so much!

B and I also celebrate our anniversary of the very first time we ever became a couple, on Thursday, so I guess my Dad's birthday and our anniversary is reason enough for me to be happy. So yay!

Friday Frustrations: Rants of a Crazy Person*

WARNING: Crazy person ranting.

I don't know how to start. I am feeling angry, deprived and misunderstood and a little bit unappreciated. I know I know, it sounds like I am suffering from a case of PMS. I really don't know exactly why I feel so glum, I just do, and I prefer to blame it on PMS rather than think I am crazy. Although, I think I am and I feel crazy sometimes.

Recently, I feel so annoyed and irritated with my kids. Especially Lucas. Which is weird, because I don't usually feel like that towards him, usually I only feel proud and amused when it involves Lucas, I get annoyed with Chakai, but that's a given, she's a kid, and she talks way too much and she does annoying things. I love them both very much and I feel bad that I feel annoyed and irritated with them lately. I can't help it. I try not to feel that way but I still do. I feel like such a bad person. I am crazy. It doesn't help the fact that Lucas is once again extra clingy because he has been sick, he had a fever yesterday but it seems that he's doing better because he didn't have fever the whole day today, which is good, but it doesn't change the fact that he's needy.

What annoys me the most is how my kids act when B is home. They act differently around him. it's weird. They act all nice and well behaved when it's just us, but when B gets home, it's a different story, they act all demanding and bratty. It. freakin. drives. me. insane. Sometimes, out of frustration I just want to scream because I can't get them to do anything when B is home, that applies especially to Chakai. B lets them get away with almost anything because to him, they are just acting how kids should. Whatever. It still freakin annoys me.

B and I have no problems when it comes to our sex life. But because I am irritated and annoyed with him too, we haven't done it in a week. Which is weird. I hate it, but I am not about to give in and be the one to initiate it. I think B is annoyed with me too because I am annoyed with him and the kids and he has been staying away from me, I guess because he is avoiding a fight, he knows how I tend to lose my temper when I am in a lousy mood. I guess I can't blame him. I guess he knows I will come to him when I am good and ready. B is so patient and giving it drives me crazy. Doesn't he get the fact that maybe I am testing him and that I want him to want come to me? He'd rather leave me alone than push himself on me. I think I am crazy, I want him to stay away and yet I don't want him to. Crazy.

I know that my family appreciates me and even though they don't say it, I know they love me. I know it. But I feel under appreciated and I feel like whatever I do, no matter how much effort I put into doing it, it'll never be enough. I don't know why I feel that way, but I do. Sometimes I feel so unimportant I feel so bad. I feel pressured to do more and yet too pressured to do anything. Does that make any sense? I swear it made sense in my head.

Ugh! I hate feeling this way. Feeling crazy and unstable and being in such a lousy mood. I hate this and yet I have no idea how to stop it. I wish there was some kind of switch so I can just stop feeling so damn grouchy and touchy and acting like a crazy person. I swear there must be something freakin wrong with me. I wish I could just figure out why I am feeling this way, other than the fact that I am might be crazy.

Anyway, I should end it here before I give you guys any more clues to confirm the fact that I am insane. Thank you to Maria for creating such a wonderful meme, I feel kind of normal after ranting like a crazy person. So go join us in the crazy fun. Visit Conversations With Moms, grab the button and rant away.

I hope the weekend goes better for me and I hope that all of you have a great weekend.

Notice how there aren't any smileys? That's how glum I feel, no room for any kind of smileys whatsoever.
