Let's see how much of this actually gets done, *heh*.

*tangent* I had that dream again last night. (No, not the one where Seth MacFarlane called me a "c*nt" and I laughed it off.) The recurring one where I'm in a toy store and amble about to the doll section and see it. The long-awaited Jem section with new dolls. And I freak out and buy up the whole section, and everyone in Toys 'R Us just looks at me funny like I'm a nutjob. YES, this is a recurring dream. And yes, this dream probably happened because of the Hub picking up "Jem" and the prospect of the new DVD set, and man we have got to get on the ball at Starbright Continued. (Because just the other week, there's been discussion of what characters we're keeping/not using and just what we're doing storyline-wise.)

Hey, new things to add to list:

--Work on Rio revamp
--Plan on what to do with Eric Raymond (now that they've convinced me to pick him up; I could have fun with the bad guy!)
--A new "Jem" snark! With slash-goggles for cosmosmariner!

And speaking of "Jem" stuff...for anyone who's on Twitter, I guess Jerrica Benton has a Twitter account! http://twitter.com/#!/starlight_music (I guess she doesn't have a whole lot of followers yet.)

Once again, Hunter is thinking about breaking up with his girlfriend. I don't know how many times I've heard this in the last year (maybe four or five; he starts getting that itch every few months) and how he never follows through on it, though. And this may sound mean and very blunt, but if he's seriously going to do it, then he needs to shit or get off the pot. I'm not saying that because I don't like Jessica (I do, actually; she's a sweet girl). I'm saying this because Hunter's been kind of dancing along that line for the last year and talks about it, but he never does it. If he's going to do it, then do it and quit stringing her along.

And it's not like he doesn't love her anymore, but from what he told me last night about it, he feels that their respective priorities have changed. He wants to finish up school and do what he wants to do (hospitality management, I guess; he wants to run a hotel or work on a cruise ship or something...how he came to that, I have no clue, but he wants to do it, so I support him on it). And she just dropped out of school and wants to take classes to learn a trade and be a massage therapist. She was majoring in psychology and wanted to work with special needs kids, but to be honest, I think her current job working with special needs kids is starting to take its toll on her. Hunter's kind of ticked that she won't at least try to finish up and get her degree at the very least. But he also feels that she's pushing for them to get married and have a kid, and he's so not ready for that. He just turned 21, for crying out loud. He wants to live his life.

( More behind the cut, because I'm just rambling and having a epiphany in the process. )
