Hey, my name is Sue.
I spend way too much of my life online, and don't regret it for a second.
Going to take a moment to update this intro to be a bit more of a FAQ.

What music do you like?
Head here last.fm/user/RIOTgraphics and see what I like. I do try to give most types of music a go, but I do have a low tolerance of auto-tune R&B which populates the charts. I can't hate music, some stuff just isn't to my taste.

What do you use this blog for?
This is a personal blog to me, because it is the first thing I started to use on the internet. It is my little place for me to whine about life and work. Because there are so many memories stored here in various entries, I have become very attached to this site. As the lines between real life and On-line life becomes more blurred, I use this blog as my little escape from the judgement of my life. It's a very therapeutic process.

What do you do online?
Mostly writing on blog-type sites and forums. I am an active part of 4 fandoms, them being The Lion King, Good Charlotte, Harry Potter and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. I have made awesome friends through all 4 communities,  and spend a lot of time moderating forums or chairing discussions.  I am an obsessive and most of the people in the fandoms are the same. 

Anyother questions?
If you have anything else you want to know, ask me a question below and I'll answer it somewhere.

Because I am sure that saving a draft should save the content of said draft

Ah LJ. Thanks for that.

Just wrote a rather large entry, for the iPhone app to close down before i could post. Queue irritation. Then when i came on the app again, a draft was sitting there. A draft which was an empty entry. -.- Someone somewhere doesn't understand the concept of drafts.

It's Sunday, so I have been relaxing. Met my friend Gemma for lunch. I also bought myself a new friend.

I really have been doing nothing of notable interest. I am trying to focus on work, because things are happening. And these things are maybe not so good. Hopefully it's the ammunition I need to actually prove myself. Maybe.

Trying not to stress myself out about work because it is harder to do my job when I am stressing about stuff. It's not that my job is hard, I mean I'm sure that you could pop a headset on my cat and he could do it. It's that I, little miss under-achiever, seem to make it hard. It's something I have ALWAYS done.

It's one of these instances where I am my own worst enemy. -.-

A Blog a month?

I guess it's better than no blog at all, right? Every time I had the momentum to post something, either my phone wouldn't let me post or LJ was unreachable. Yay! -.-

This wee while has been okay. I have had emotional ups and downs, where the downs have been downright awful. But I guess to appreciate the good days, you need to still have some crap times. And that sentence is almost becoming a mantra, like knowing that moods and luck come in waves. But i have been whining a lot.

Which is where I get confused. I have used the Internet and social networking for stress relief over the last 6/7 years. And now when I try to relieve my stress, as I always have done, I get comments from people annoyed by my complaints. I don't see why I should change the way I use something, Just because someone suddenly pays enough attention to what I do, surely doesn't give them a right to give me abuse. -.-

I'm getting bad at this

I don't know why I haven't been blogging. I have a sneaking suspicion it's because I am quite happy, and have always used blogging for my whinging. So, me changing my attitude about things and trying to be more positive has left me with a gap. I don't really know what to blog about, if I can't complain.

I guess I should kind of say that I am going through to Edinburgh tomorrow to meet Alex Day. His song, Lady Godiva, was released today, and it broke the UK top 20. He did it in one day, with no TV coverage, no record deals, no PR. Just him and his fans. And the great thing is he has made physical CDs, that are going to be sold at HMV. These are an independent artist's product, and I am kind of impressed with HMV. So, after watching Alex for years on YouTube, I finally get to meet him, and say 'hey'. So stoked about it.

Why, hello there!

I am at home because with a bit of a long weekend. Which is nice.

I have decided that I need to change things. By change, I mean I want to try and get my life in order. And my manager has indicated that we have 12 weeks till the end of year review. So, I decided to use those 12 weeks to get things done, that I need to do.

That would involve me buying my glasses (something I have been needing for months), replace my provisional licence, book my theory test, lose weight and other things. I am not expecting big changes, but hopefully some would be good.

I am optimistic. Which is good. Wish me luck.

I have been using my iPhone for everything right now. I'm not sure if it's because of the 'novelty factor' or because my laptop charger is kind of buggered. I say buggered, I mean there is a loose connection and the darned thing is impossible to charge.

Yes, me and technology have a hell of a lot of issues. Further proved that my Xbox RRODd last night. For those who don't know the 'red ring of death' is a software fault in the Xbox 360, where the console is rendered completely useless. It lets you know this by not working and displaying 3 red lights, which is inclusive of this fault. It usually needs repaired, which costs at least £100. So, in the heady heights of payday, I have decided just to head to Game and buy a new one.

Braw.

Celebrations

Have not been feeling great these last few days at work, so I took today off. I thought a day away from Sky's awful air conditioning Would do me good. And it has. Feeling a lot better today, but that may have to do with all the fresh air I have had. But, I couldn't get tomorrow off, so back to work then. Boo!

In other news, sales in shops means cheap jeans. Yes, Dorothy Perkins, I think I love your 2 pairs of jeans for £25 offer. Actually. I know I love that offer.

Slightly annoyed with the screen protector I bought for my iPhone. It was rubbery and a fingerprint magnet. And, after two weeks, it had lost its 'stick'. I lost my patience with it last night, and pulled it off. I now hope that this iPhone screen is non-scratch. Meh

I am in a strange place right now. More ups than downs, which is awesome. When I think about it is strange. I don't have a buzzing social life, relationship and I am nowhere near doing what I would love to be. But still, I am relatively happy.

I have come a long way, to realise that I don't need certain things to make me happy. It's a revelation for me, because I have always felt I needed certain things to be happy. Most of then being relationships, and the myth that the only happy people are those with other halves. I always found that a bit demeaning to people, because it's like saying, you can't be happy unless you are with someone else. Which is a sentiment, I have always found to be stupid. Because if you can like or appreciate yourself, how can you expect others to like you.

I don't really have too much to say. Was working again today, which was fun. It is now my weekend can begin.

Sitting watching Harry Potter with a vodka and irn bru. Braw way to relax after work. I have a gig in Cupar tomorrow. That should be good as I am going with people I haven't seen in a while. So that should be awesome.
