Is that good or....? xD

Queen_Andais 07-13-2016 10:24 PM

Completely fabulous by my standards. Love dark, mysterious avatars. They are my bread and butter if you will.

Emma, we went to the cabin like we do every year. Next year though, we'll have to throw in a different destination in conjunction with the cabin. I love it there, the husband, not so much. We need to start exploring new places, just don't have the money for it. Got my fingers crossed he gets a job and that will allow us to save more money and afford more things.

Oh that'll be fun!! Going to new places is the best - especially when you have time to just drive around and explore the local culture and cuisine! [love]

-sends good vibes your way- JOB JOB JOB!!! [boogie]

I'm thinking I need a change too - I'm just so over negativity and rudeness. Been dealing with a fair bit of it here on Mene lately - harassment, rude comments, bullying - I attempt to be civil until I just have to put my foot down, and I even attempt second chances, but those just get thrown in my face. I think it's getting to the point where I just don't need this kind of negativity to where I'm just like "Hiatus time maybe?" I'm too old for this kind of crap ya know? There are ways to speak to another person, and then there are ways that you don't. I'm getting the latter lately and it's just not cool.

I'm debating on whether to just go on full hiatus, or maybe trying just staying out of those threads from now on and seeing if I dread coming online less. Not really sure what to do at this point. Mainly just frustrated and a bit hurt, but I can't change it so blegh. /sorry for the moping - it's 2am and I'm miserable lol

I completely agree! The Egyptian goddess/queen vibe is so much fun - I'm totally in love!

I love it right now! (Demon and candles etc.)
What're you changing it to? :D

TaiyoTsuki 07-19-2016 06:33 PM

@ Emma: This is what I changed it to [XD]

Emma Corrin 07-20-2016 02:16 PM

Bwahaha! Guess I missed the other one then!!

Well I like what you changed to anyways!! <3

Queen_Andais 07-20-2016 06:50 PM

Emma, I totally feel you on the negativity and ugliness that has been introduced to certain threads. Sorry you are facing the same crap. Never easy when people keep pushing, thinking you won't snap back. I'd much rather be a happy, bubbly person than a grouchy bitch. I can do the grouchy bitch in a heart beat, takes so much energy though. Not to mention what it does to your soul and aura.

My afternoon at work is going to drag by, can just feel it. Bummer. Finished the bulk of my work in the morning. Darn. Guess I can upload stuff, oh joy.

Emma Corrin 07-21-2016 01:01 AM

Negativity stinks [gonk]
Trying to be the adult but I can only take so much ya know? Normally I'd brush it off more but with everything that's happened the last few months and then at the time my Grandpa was in a lot of pain - luckily we now know what's wrong and he's on meds that are helping so yay! - but we were really concerned because he's been deteriorating since Gram died in April and it's just been hard in general so we didn't know what we were facing with him - so Mene has become an escape to just chill and talk and lately it's just been a hassle to talk about things that should be enjoyable and it's like - I've honestly dread coming onto Menewsha for fear I'll see that negativity in the threads and I just can't deal anymore lol Politeness and being an adult can only take up to about a certain level!! Like you said - it really puts you in a fowl place and just makes things outside of Mene even more untolerable and snappy and ugh. Yeah. We're totally on the same page here.

BUT! We must keep it out of this thread. [yes]
ONLY HAPPINESS ALLOWED!!! [illgetu]
Where's Amane when you need her randomness? XD;

Hahaha Oh that sounds like loads of fun!! What kind of uploading is it? Transferring from paper to digital or just like busywork stuff?

I've been quite busy this afternoon because a HUGE sale just started for O2 - managed to get my personal order in (took me 2 1/2 hrs because the site kept crashing due to traffic) and then tonight it actually broke lol IT is working on it but dang! They should have been prepared for the huge influx of people! You can't put charms at $1 and dangles at $3 and chains/leather wrap bracelets for $5-$7 and not expect people to flock!! Hoping tomorrow it'll be fixed so I can promote more. :3 But, I guess the positive is the my site didn't turn Canadian randomly and block customers from buying like it did for some of my team xD;

Queen_Andais 07-21-2016 04:10 PM

To bad we can't be like the frogs, Emma:
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psphfgcjdw.jpg

And it's a bit illegal to push people down the stairs, but here is our motto for the day:
http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...psk7yjq2rm.jpg

The first two hours of my day have flown by, so that's a positive step in the right direction, or something like that.

There is nothing more frustrating than trying to get in on some good deals and the website crashes or won't let you on at all. One of those serious unjust things of life that happens to us all at some point. Usually mine is trying to get good seats to a sporting event, or concert. Constantly missing the sale by mere seconds. Drives me bananas.

Happy note for tomorrow...PAY DAY!!! Sadly, most of the money will be gone to rent and other small bills. Damn. Not a fan of this thing they call "being an adult," seems fundamentally not fun.

Do you make stuff with the items you are buying, Emma? I know you were doing the Paint Cans...or was that eons ago and you've moved on to other things?

Emma Corrin 07-23-2016 08:19 PM

Omg YES! FROGS AND SLINKIES FOR LIFE!! XD;

Haha yes! Positive steps! :D

Right?? I should not have had to try for 2 1/2 hrs - especially as a designer placing an order in my Back Office! XD;
I still have Create A Can, but it hasn't been a primary focus the last few years - it's too hard to do it out of the house (not enough room) and everything has revolved around Gram's health until recently so CAC just kind of got dropped until the last month or so - trying to get enough money raised to invest in a store again but that probably won't be for another year or so as we're starting from the ground up again. Right now we're just focusing on revamping the website and getting our online presence back arougaingain - starting our slowly until we can get a Storefront again :3

In the meantime I've become a Designer for Origami Owl (megandanyelle.origamiowl.com) which is shortened to O2 most of the time :3
Most of my sales are online right now, but I'm building up stock in order to go to Craft Fairs etc. with the Jewelry and get exposure - not many people are aware I sell it yet so I need the craft fairs to get the personal exposure - but I can't do that without stock - so it's kind of like I'm not making anything on my online sales because I'm putting it back into stock - but with crazy sales like this it's awesome because the items will be retired after the sale so the only way to get them will be from my inventory which also increases sales :3
And because the Jewelry is all customizable I really have to have a variety of the product on hand - it's so much fun to play with and design with though! I've made so many personal lockets - I'm legit obsessed lol

Yay for payday!!!! But chhh on adulting. Adulting isn't fun. We must fix this. [illgetu]

Shadami 07-23-2016 08:40 PM

i really like those pictures.

Emma Corrin 07-23-2016 08:41 PM

They just fit don't they? XD;

Shadami 07-23-2016 09:42 PM

i wish i could be mean and push someone down some steps and watch them bounce. some people have been seriously irking me lately.

Emma Corrin 07-24-2016 01:32 AM

I know exactly what you mean lol
Theoretically it sounds amazing but in reality it's just as evil as they are - it's a lose-lose [gonk]
[glomp] BUT! Look at it this way - at least we haven't stooped to their level and we're being adults in the situation!! <3

Shadami 07-25-2016 12:07 AM

exactly what i remind myself <3 and not with "i'm superior" just I'm going to continue treating people as nicely as possible

Queen_Andais 07-25-2016 03:02 PM

Here is my philosophy, you don't have to tell them to be careful around the stairs...just make one step a little slippery and gravity does the rest for you. There are ways of being evil without the evilness being overt.

I realized just how sneaky evilness is when my friend's husband was telling a story about their seven year old daughter. Payton was playing with her three year old second cousin, Josh. Josh was tormenting Payton with the hose and because she has been taught not to torture her younger brother she took the abuse, until Josh's dad said that she had every right to retaliate against him. Joey (Payton's dad) tells her, kink the hose and he can't spray you with it anymore. (Here is where my covert evilness sneaked in without a lot of warning.) I asked Joey if he told Payton to wait until Josh was looking at the end of the hose and then release the kink, thereby unleashing the pressured water into the kiddo's face.
Joey admitted he hadn't thought about that at first until a few minutes in Josh is looking down into the hose, shaking it and then looking up at his dad and then back down at the hose. After that is when Joey got the idea and told Payton.

Not sure what it says of me as a person that my brain had already jumped to the logical step of unleashing the water in the kid's face...Pretty sure that makes me doomed or going to hell.

Hm! What to be said of toddler Amane, the Amane who ate carrot sticks? Very quietly obedient and secretly scared of the oddest things. I was never sure what to do when I was around other people, so I mirrored whatever they were doing. So I was pretty kooky and fun if everyone else was acting kooky and fun.

what's it say of me that i didn't have to get to the part where you said to unkink it that i saw "tormenting with a hose" that i thought. REVENGE KINK SPRAY THE JErK IN THE FACE!

TaiyoTsuki 07-27-2016 08:36 PM

Whaaat did I walk in on? Who got kinksprayed and do I even want to know?

Amane 07-27-2016 08:47 PM

Yep, I know what kinkspraying is, and if you're doomed, you're getting a private room with a maid when you get down there, Andais.

Taiyo, the water got caught and then it went SPLOOSH in the kid's face.
