Love's gonna carry you home

Mostly LJ updates today. I'll get to other things later.

If you're friends with me already (I friended you and you friended me), you obviously don't have to worry about the friends only entry. I just put it up because people have started friending me without saying anything, and I have no idea where some of them even came from anymore.

I changed my layout again. I actually haven't done that for a long time. I didn't mess with the CSS at all, just the image at the top. I wanted it to be tinted slightly red to match the rest of the layout but still in black and white. I set up the image header to show more than one person this time. Although, I had a hard time choosing the people I wanted to include. At first, I was trying to decide between John and Paul for a Beatle, then I said screw it, and chose George. I respect George a lot, though. Was going to include John Mayer, but I decided on Frank Sinatra instead. I never do anything with him in it, and I like him more than I let on.

I updated my 2010 scrapbook somewhat. I have to add a few other things I missed to it. At least it didn't sit for half a year like it did last year. I've got a lot to add to it still.

I'm also going through and working on my tags. I want to clean them up and get rid of the ones I don't use anymore or really don't care to have anymore. I like some of my silly tag names, but I'm also going to make them easier to find.

I know I said I wasn't going to do a picspam for the Idol 2010 finale, but I've got something else in mind. Since it is the end of the Simon era, I wanted to do a couple of things for it. I also wanted to put Lee somewhere here since I did want him to win this year.

So, I'm searching "Jon Bon Jovi" and Google pulls up "jon bon jovi divorce" as the number one search. I wonder if I've missed something, and then I realize it's just people confusing Jon and Richie again. BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS JON IS REALLY THE ONLY MEMBER OF THE BAND. THE REST OF THE GUYS YOU SEE ON STAGE AND IN THE PICTURES ARE JUST MARIONETTES.

Anyway, most of the stuff I didn't finish tonight will be finished in a couple of days, so excuse the mess. I'm far too tired to work on stuff tonight. I should have gone to bed a while ago now anyway.

Thanks. He is absolutely wonderful. I need to pick up a few more movies to watch. I really adore him in the old films.

I know. Then they don't comment anywhere, just sit there. I don't friend you back if you don't say anything anyway! I don't like friending people I haven't spoken to before either. I post some private stuff too. I don't have a lot of public entries. :/

I have. :) Looking for a job, which is stressful, but that also gives me time to rest.

Yes! Simply wonderful! Yesterday I was listening to a tune of his on Sirius XM, "The Things We Did Last Summer" while driving along the countryside and it was such a beautiful moment; the sun setting and I just really love that yesteryear feeling. I've got to watch more of his movies -- he really was great! <3

You know, there is an etiquette when it comes to friending people and I wish more people knew about it even if it's like an unspoken rule of sorts, LOL! Yeah, I have a lot of private entries and I want to be able to trust who I'm adding back, you know? I'm not obliged to add someone just because they add me back. I have to know them and have conversations with them, know who they are. As funny as this sounds, I treat Facebook and Livejournal with much caution; people who I can trust and know are always in with me -- like you can't invite a vampire into your house because once he's there, he'll always come back. Do you know what I mean?? LOL! xD

I wish you luck on your job search! I'm sure in no time you will find your right fit! :)

That does sound nice. I meant to get a couple movies at the library this weekend, but somehow I ended up with There Will Be Blood and You Can't Take It With You (DON'T ASK ME HOW THAT HAPPENED 8D).

You would think it's common sense, though. I mean, some people do have very large friends lists and probably don't notice when someone new adds them anyway. It's really annoying. I treat them with caution too. I only add people I've met face to face (or have known for a while here). I don't mind adding people from high school (kind of have to stay in touch since I'm a class representative and will have reunion info and such later), but I get so many people I don't know adding me (and you can tell half of them are creepy guys).

Thanks. I keep looking. I was told the other day that a lot of people get hired in August, so I'm not too worried at the moment.
