This is KSena

Usually a friendly sort. Be nice to me, and I am nice to you. Here I ramble on about me, life, work and fandoms. I am a fan of Robin of Sherwood, Xena: Warrior Princess, Buffy: the Vampire Slayer, Pirates of the Caribbean, Tokio Hotel and Sons of Anarchy. I don't apologize for anything I write here. This is my mind. And you entered it. Welcome.

Yes, I am going to cut down on my f-list... doing the defriending thing... I seriously have to. I can't keep up. I really really can't. :-P Currently I follow 103 LJ-friends... and am being followed by 185 (!!!). Some are dead journals, for sure. But the reality is as it is. I just can not keep up.

If I've defriending you, I mean no ill will and I do whish you the best for you and yours in the future. I do. Honestly. Every single one of you.

I gotta say though... I am a bit shocked at the amount of people following me. 185??? What? I am THAT interesting??? o.O

MIA!

I AM NOT DEAD! I swear!

Neither is anyone else in this nerdy household.

Even if [livejournal.com profile] peting73 almost ended up in the doghouse again... Yeah, we were sick this weekend. Again. First Alexandra. She got her first two teeth the other day. (YAY!) And then she started puking. (Crap.) And not many hours later, so did [livejournal.com profile] peting73. And after midnight, so did I. FUN TIMES! Not. So since the only one that got any sleep was Alexandra, we called in the cavalry, that is... My MIL. Because she is awesome and came over and took care of Alexandra A WHOLE DAY so both me and [livejournal.com profile] peting73 could sleep and heal in peace. Thank gawd for that.

Right, so that was this weekend. I know I've been MIA like fuck. Reason? Well, apart from being sick, I've just kept busy. I don't have that many hours on the computer. And since Alexandra got her teeth, well... She just don't wanna sleep. She don't wanna eat. And she pukes in the evenings. I am worried, and when I am worried I try to relax during the evenings with fanfic.

So I do that, read fanfic. When really, I should try to read up on my F-list. I am so behind it is ridiculous. And I do so very much apologize for that. If there is anyone that wants to know? I have NO IDEA how I'll get caught up. None. I mean, even if I spend ALL MY TIME reading my f-list, I don't know when or if I'll get caught up. And sometimes I'd like to do other things on my computer to. I know, shocking. *sigh*

And then the Georg FQF will be posted... Although I doubt that will push me to far behind, since not many prompts has been picked up. Unsurprisingly. So maybe I won't be pushed back to far.

As long as I don't get sick again... *crosses fingers* I bet it is Alexandra that keeps dragging those germs home... *sigh*

I was planning to get a photo of my tattoo to post today, but alas... That hasn't happened yet. We're going to visit my brother on Sunday (hopefully) and maybe he can help us take a good photo of it with [livejournal.com profile] peting73s brilliant camera... and so you can see how awesome our tattoos look next to each other to. It is almost fully healed now. So glorious. Hard to not show it off, so when I was at the library last with Alexandra I talked to the librarians there that I know, and they to found it absolutely gorgeous and said such a tattoo would most likely NOT hold me back when looking for a job as a librarian. At least not in this town. Felt WONDERFUL to hear! :-D

My brother came to visit a week or two ago to with his kids and also my mom. That was AWESOME! :-D So much fun! I love his kids, they are SO clever, it is scary. I am (apparently) the cool aunt with the cool computer and all stuff, so they got help to start playing kid games online on our computers. His daughter is six, and his soon four. And they manage perfectly on their own (we just supervised from afar, so they didn't get into anything not very kid-friendly... it is OUR computers after all...). Tilda, his daughter six years old, manage to find kid games on Google on her own and to help her brother to! She hasn't even started school yet! Geezes... I am not sure if I look forward to or fear the fact that Alexandra will most likely be even worse when she grows up...

Talking of using your computer, I haven't used it very wisely some time now. I had this pile of papers on my desk. My "to-do-pile". Well. STUPID ME! I had a bunch of bills in it. And I forgot about them. Out of sight, out of mind, right? Fuck. So when I finally sat down to take care of the mess (that the cats have used as a bed), most of them were over-due, and will therefor cost more. IDIOTIC! I mean, it ain't as if we are starving here, but we aren't exactly swimming in money either. SO STUPID! *head-desk*

Also, [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit, my dear best friend, is a horrible enabler. And should be spanked. Because not only is she a Downton Abbey fan, and has all the seasons on DVD... she threw them at me and promptly told me to watch them. So I did. Damn. It is a very good show! But then again, anything with Maggie Smith in it is bound to be glorious. And then... Then the little minx found another fangirl at her work. And considering the fact [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit works as a cleaning lady at the hospital, well... I bet cleaning those boring corridors got a whole lot more fun! Because now those two walk around discussing Supernatural together! X-D And [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit got to borrow the whole series from her workmate, one season at a time! So now we watch the first two and the last two episodes together, while we rush through the rest on our own, one of us at a time. *lol* So currently we are at season 3. I have watched all of it EXCEPT the last two episodes (NO SPOILERS!). It is a really good show, but it should have the under-title ANGST! *lol* So far, so good. We'll work our way through the rest of the series to, I am sure. :-)

I don't even know what I've been doing and why I haven't been posting... I just know that I've been all over the place lately. *sigh* As if this post didn't prove that. *lol*

Over and out. For now. *HUGS EVERYONE*

This entry is crossposted between LJ and DW. Comment where you are comfortable.
I'd written up half an intropost of sorts... and then lost the draft. Well, dammit! *lol* Oh well. Let's see if I can do it again...

Me

I am born 19th of July 1977, making me 35 years old. I grew up on the countryside, but now lives in a city. And very happy about that! My hobbies include fangirling online, reading books, watching movies and TV-shows, gaming (WoW), LARP, roleplaying (online or pen-paper), hanging out with family and friends or just being plain lazy. :-D

Family

I am a new mom, since my daughter Alexandra ([livejournal.com profile] mini_viking for photos...) was born 9th of August. I've been with my fiancé/hubby since 2003, and we do love each other just as much today as we did then. Now it just has added to it what with being parents. :-) And no, we ain't married. It took me 6 years wait to get the first ring, so I guess paitence is a virtue. ;-)

Then there's mom. She is as insane as me, and with a mind WAY pervier then me... My goodness! If you at any point think I am bad, you should have a discussion with my mom one day. ;-) She grew up a city girl, but moved to the countryside with my dad. She is a nurse, and very good at it to loving her job! She really rocks at cheering up people with her special sense of humor, be they young or old. ;-)

Dad, who was also one HELL of a man, if you ask me. :-) He sadly died 2002 though. I miss him still, probably always always will. All the fun we've had, and all the stuff he taught us. He was a farmerboy, through and through. :-D Grew up on a farm and worked on it from the moment he could walk. But having a love for anything with an engine, he ended up a mechanic. He will probably always be the most handy/practical person I've ever meet. No one will beat him there. Didn't matter what broken thing you gave him. He fixed it. Well, the only thing he didn't get was computers. *lol*

And then theres' my little brother, four years younger then me. :-) He takes after dad, extremly handy/practical and can fix almost anything you give him. He has a wonderful wife and two kids, and I am oh so very VERY proud of him! When we were kids we were fighting almost all the time, then we moved away from home and grew apart some... But now we are closer then ever. :-D I do so very much love him and his family. :-) He wouldn't dream of living in a city. Cities stresses him out somewhat. *lol* He lives on the countryside and works as a farmhand on a bigger farm.

My extended family is HUGE! HUGE and insane and loving and just... crazy. X-D I got my sense of humor and my straightforwardness from somewhere after all... ;-)

Also, there's my two crazy cats Skuld and Verdandi who me and hubby got after we've lived together for a year... they are 7 or 8 years old by now, but still as crazy as they were when they were kittens... :-)

Friends

My best friend, my sister in all but blood is [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit. She's been my friend through thick and thin. We've had each others backs since we were 13 years old. And since both of us are 35 now, that makes us best friends for 22 years... o.O We've decided when we get past 60, we'll go to an amusement park with our walking sticks, be seniour nuisances and be a pain in the ass to the teens! X-D

I also have plenty, plenty friends in the local vampire-LARP club. I am oldest woman there, most of them younger then me, but eh... :-) I love them they are awesome all around. Sweet girls and boys more or less goth all of them. :-) I love meeting them every time it is time for a LARP! And I love hanging out with them randomly to!

And then there's my online-friends... SO MANY!!! I've lost a few since I started hangning out online and be active in various fandoms, but I've gained many. And many have stayed through the years to. :-) Most of them I've found here on LJ.

LiveJournal

I've been on Livejournal since December 2003. This place is MORE then "just" a blogging-site or journaling-site. It is hard to put into words, but it's safe to say this is my HOME on the net.

Fandoms

Now to the interesting stuff, right? ;-)

When me and my best friend got to know each other Robin of Sherwood ran on swedish television. We both got extremly hooked and wrote fanfic (terrible Mary Sues!) and drew fanart back then. We didn't know anything about fandoms and fanfics though, since this was before the internet pretty much, and we didn't know anything about fanzines. :-)

Then I went to live in the USA (yes, I lived there for a year, working as an aupair in the state of New Hampshire). And the family I lived with that year, they were fans of Xena: WarriorPrincess. It was a thing they watched as a family. So I joined them. And turned into a diehard Xenaite.

And then when I came home from the US, I went to study and live on my own. And lo and behold... at breakfast time, there was re-runs of Buffy the VampireSlayer. It didn't take long before I turned into a fan of said show to. Around this time, I found LJ, and it all went downhill from there.. *lol*

I meet my darling hubby, [livejournal.com profile] peting73, and we share a lot of interest. Especially when it comes to movies. And he dragged me with him to watch the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Then to the next one. And then I was hooked and I was the one doing the dragging for the third one. I am not to fond of the forth one though, I will admit. The first three movies I love and adore and I will admit to be a heavy fangirl fo those. :-)

Talking of friends, I do have a few RL friends here on LJ. And one of them, [livejournal.com profile] kaijn, made a post with a certain Tom Kaulitz of Tokio Hotel one day when I was reading on LJ peacefully. I had no idea who he was, thinking he was some sort of j-pop person (I mean, TOKIO Hotel, give me a break...). I was soon told otherwise, and started surfing around for music and info about the four boys, found TH TV, and... here we are today... I am the most active in this fandom, being a diehard fan of Georg and Gustav. I love them G's dearly.

And I thought that would be the end, but alas... No such thing.

My hubby, who I share many interests with, found out about the TV-show Sons of Anarchy... I didn't think this would be a show for me at all... but I watched a few episodes of season one... and BAM! I got hooked. Dammit. I am still just tipping my toes in this fandom, and I SO VERY MUCH blame my hubby for it...


Right so... Uhu... Don't really know what else to write, but yeah. That'll be me. If you got any questions or want to know anything or... whatever. :-) Feel free to ask whenever, however, whatever. X-D I am an open book, disgustingly honest, so if you ask me a question, I WILL answer it! :-D (Yes I love sex, no I ain't straight, yes I love both men and woman, yes I love my men a bit hairy and my women curvalicious, what yes, beard is sexy on men, yes I have two cats, yes they are crazy, yes I have 5 tattoos, yes I am disgustingly honest, why do you ask? X-D )

First off, some more news on them changes that have gotten everyones panties in a twist... and prompted the threat of mass-moving to DW from LJ.

More information on LJ's Friends feed, plus paid account information.

I hope many will decide to stay after all...

Anyhow! It's been enough sad posts and annoyed posts and angry posts around here... I am guilty of it to. But today, I promptly melted. :-)

First, I found this gif:



Tell me you that didn't give you a smile on your face? :-) And it keeps getting better...

Because I found the YouTube with this adorable kid! :-D

Mommy's nose is scary! (Or funny!) )

Also, even though I don't like them One Direction boys at all... I know I have a lot of friends on my f-list that are big One Direction fans, so... Yesterday when watching swedish television and feeding Alexandra...? Guess who showed up on Swedish X-Factor? *lol*

I tried to find any good vids on YouTube today, but either I fail at searching for One Direction stuff, or there isn't that much to find. But here is what I found for those who likes One Direction:

So, so vid from the audience...

Interview of 1D on swedish channel 4's website (There's a few more clips under this with 1D. I am sure them boys are recognizable.)

I hope I managed to put a smile on someones faces today at least. :-) We need it, folks. *hugs all her f-list*

Ugh, ugh... I wonder if it is ironic that LJ-drama is making me post more on LJ?

Anyhoddle!

Some more news on them changes right HERE: LJ News, straight from Russia. Some very interesting stuff posted there...

And here's a great poll that I HOPE the LJ-team gets to look at at some point: A very topical LJ-poll...

Blah, blah... :-/ Troublesome LJ-team... Indeed troublesome. First time I've gotten upset with them, to be honest...

Onwards to something more fun! Just to balance out the boring.

Got this link from [livejournal.com profile] ruchirahni. And apparently Sweden and swedes are good at something! :-D Sweden to import garbage as trash supplies run dry. I had no idea to be honest! *lol* *continues to recycle*

She also gave me this link and I will now promptly kill my wallet by shopping to much on that site: My Baby Rocks! Punk baby clothes. On the good side, at least Alexandra will look good. *lol*

Today we were visiting the LARP, me [livejournal.com profile] peting73 and Alexandra. Unfortunally it didn't go so well. :-/ Alexandra has been a very well behaved baby. She is very relaxed with being with other people, sitting in their lap and such. But... Not this evening, apparently.

She was calm and curious for about... half an hour or so. Then she started to cry and scream and such... and no matter WHAT me and [livejournal.com profile] peting73 did, she just wouldn't stop. Nothing worked. Cuddles, kisses, pacifiers... my boobs... Nothing. :-/ So we had to pack up early and go home. I didn't even get a chance to talk to my dear friends! What a bust. And we won't have a chance to go there in a month, so I was quite sad about it, while also worried about Alexandra. Since she was very fussy and cried easily at home to. We finally got her to sleep this evening, but it wasn't easy. :-/ Sure she has had a stuffy nose for about a week that just won't give up on her, but.. yeah. :-/ I've never seen her be so angry and sad in her short life, to be honest.

I hope Alexandra will be in a better mood tomorrow, since both my mom and [livejournal.com profile] peting73s mom will come over then. :-) Grandma party! I'll keep my fingers crossed.
