Changes, Y'all.

Ok. I don't know if you're still out there (you faithful five, you) but if you are. I'M SO SORRY.

No seriously, I know that sounds like I'm screaming at you, but I'm totally not! I love how many people have come to love and follow (or at least check in from time to time) my blog. However, these 8,000 things happened to me over the last few days and well...I've totally slacked off here.

So here's what happened:

I went to PA to take care of my dad, who had half of his foot amputated.

I have been crazily studying for my crazy hard anatomy class. Partially because I want to get accepted to nursing school and partially because I'm a perfectionist who wants NEEDS to get straight A's. I can't help it. It's genetics. (ok no it's not it's just me)

I GOT A JOB. Crazy right? And it's been hurried and I found out last week (sort of) and confirmed it this week and have been GOING CRAZY doing all the things I need to do before I start on Tuesday.

Here's what is going to happen:

Photography is still really important to me. I'm going to continue taking pictures as often as I possibly can. I feel bad about not finishing this little thing that I started BUT at the same time...life takes you on a journey and I'm here for the ride. Ya know? So I'm going where life takes me at the moment. I'll continue to post a lot of photos from my photo shoots as well as my life...hopefully you'll still love me <3

Once again, sorry for my lack of posts and THANK YOU for being awesome.

I'm Not Dead (Yet)

Ok so I totally haven't posted pictures BUT I promise I have a slew of pix from the last  10 days coming soon. Here's what I owe you:

Day 20 (Wednesday)
Day 21 (Thursday) <---I have an awesome AFGM picture for ya!
Day 22 (Friday)
Day 23 (Saturday)
Day 24 (Sunday)
Day 25 (Monday) <---a half assed picture (it was like 11:50 and I didn't want to NOT take a picture....I don't even know if this one counts)
Day 26 (Tuesday) <---not a half assed picture
Day 27 (Wednesday)
Day 28 (Thursday)
Day 29 (Friday)

Now...let me explain. It's not that I don't love y'all and I know you're probably like WTF DIANA. You see...there's this little thing called A Few Good Men and it has been consuming my life. I'm learning things I never thought I would (i.e. costuming) and working with people I just can't describe well enough to do them justice. It's been such an awesome, exciting, wonderful experience and I can't wait to show Huntsville what we've been working so hard on for the last 5 weeks. This show is amazing and I REALLY hope you make it to the VBC this weekend or next weekend to see it!

I missed a few days...big surprise

I'm WAY too busy. I need to get rid of something in my life! Here's my story:

I've been doing theatre, school, family, friends, photography, blogging, job hunting, and pretty much everything else in between. I'm not complaining, mind you, I'm just letting you know the amount of my busy-ness before I tell you my story.

SO...a few weeks ago I got pulled over (not for speeding...what?) because my tags were old. Whoops. Now, I know I'm an adult and I have to be responsible about remembering that stuff...but with a wedding, honeymoon, and my grandmother dying? Well...it sort of slipped my mind. (And I never got a reminder!Thanks, yall) So anyway I had a court date assigned where I was going to go and explain all that. I paid for my tags (and the late fee) so I'm not really at fault anymore. The cop told me I wouldn't have to pay the ticket if I took care of the tags. So really? Not a big deal just a little time out of my day. Except the part where I FORGOT TO GO TO COURT.

::smacksheadagainstwallseveraltimes::

I need like...a calendar? Or a personal assistant. I'm so freaking busy all the time I feel like I am always forgetting something! Every time I sit down to post pictures or write a blog entry I get a phone call about something else I need to do. SHEESH. I need to learn how to say NO to people. Anyone else have that problem? All in all, it's not really an excuse for my missing entries/pictures but expect before and afters tomorrow (for the last two days) plus a few new ones I took of The Frazz's child. Yeah she's my muse.

PAUSE

OK. I'm crazy busy. Thursday and Friday I was traveling the world (ok Huntsville) looking for costumes for a show I'm Assitatnt Directing, so while I did take pictures I haven't had time to upload them. This weekend doesn't look much more promising. Good news is, I should be able to post by Sunday so just sit tight until tomorrow and I PROMISE I'll post my pix!

Thanks for your patience <3

Procrastination: What's Your Procrastinating Preference?

Hi, my name is Diana. I'm a Procrastinator.

::HI DIANA::


It's becoming a SERIOUS problem these days. It seems as if I just can't motivate myself to do the things I know I need to do. It's not even like some of these things would take more than a few minutes (ex. I really need to empty the trashcans in my house and put new bags in them. It would LITERALLY take five minutes total, yet have I done it? Nope. Why? No clue. I just don't feel like it.) AND MY LIST ISN'T EVEN LONG! That's when it's the worst, though. It's like something about the length of my lists dictates the amount I procrastinate. I'm pretty sure it's a mathematic forumla...if list < 5 items then procastination = 25 days.

Ok so maybe not 25 days but still. Anywho...my awesome ability to procrastinate made me wonder what YOUR procrastinating preference is? Here is my list in no particular order:

1. Facebook - someone's got to be a stalker
2. Twitter - because my loyal followers would be totally bummed if i didn't post at least 26 times each hour.
3. StumbleUpon - no explanation needed.
4. Bubble Bath's - i NEED to stay clean y'all.
5. Reality TV (and A Few Good Men) - It's like crack! I just can't stop watching it once I see it's on!
6. This blog - writing about it might encourage me to do it? Nah...probably not.

EDIT: I'd like to add one...

7. Chillin' with my homies avoiding our work together!
