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.

Alexandras LJ, life as I know it and crazy days...

Aug. 25th, 2013 01:42 am
kseenaa: (Morning person I am not)
YES!

I have finally gotten of my ass and updates now Alexandras LJ: Mini_Viking! I'll be updating near to every day unitil I am caught up!

So here's how far I've gotten this far:

Last post I did was in November: Sooo many photos! Of me! and Alexandra writing her own post. Part 1..

These are the posts I've done now in August so far:

I am an alive lil mini-viking! More photos from November!, December and Christmas!, Onwards! January and baptism and food!, February: tattooed mom & dad and cat-friends and food everywhere!, Time for what I did in March! and April!

Tomorrow I'll make an May-post. We still got plenty more photos to share! ;-) So go there and give a comment or two, eh? Feel free to friend that LJ as well!

ANYWAY!

So what I've been up to apart from updating pretty photos of my daughter? Not that much. Well, that is partly a lie.

This Tuesday me and Alexandra had A Bad Day. X-D

Usually during the nights I stay up to around 1:30-2am. Which works better than you'd think since Alexandra sleeps until 8-9am. Which gives me 6-7 hours of sleep which is perfect for me. :-)

BUT! This Tuesday she first woke up at 4am. o.O I gave her some gruel, and she feel asleep again. Just to wake up at 5:30am. And refused to fall back asleep again. Play time, mom! URGH! Well, you got a kid, no choice, eh? So up we went and she played on the floor in the living room while I lay in the couch and talked to her and poked her belly as soon as she walked past. Which apparently was hilarious. :-) So all good so far.

At around 8am she started to whine and get a bit tired. So I tried giving her some porridge, which she didn't want. Instead, more gruel. Alexandra apparently really really loves gruel. After that, she was REALLY sleepy, so I let her sleep and then put her to bed for nap-time, hoping it would be a long one so I could nap to.

So I went to my own bed. I have our baby-monitor right next to it so I can hear if Alexandra wakes up. And then I feel asleep to.

At 11:20am we both woke up. After about 4 hours of sleeping. X-D Talk about nap!

But the day wasn't over. Oh, no, no...

I also had an appointment at 1pm with the nurse specialized in Asthma. So off we went! Might note that when me and the nurse decided on the time, we discused both 10am and 1am as possibilities.

Once there I am told I was supposed to be there at 10am. WTH!?! And the interesting thing is that this has happened once before. But what with the day I'd had up until then, I just threw up my hands in the air, and said OF COURSE this would happen to!

Right, so I got a new appointment (and I'll double-check it this time a few days before, mark me...). And then me and Alexandra went downtown to the nice park there, because dammit... I wanted to do something nice after that. She liked it though, got to crawl around in the grass, look at dogs there for a walk, trying to catch birds, socilize with other kids in the park... It was quite wonderful after the bad start of the day. :-)

Then we went to a café. I had food with me for Alexandra, so I feed her. And me? I had a piece of cheese-cake and mango tea. I think I deserved it. :-)

So that was our crazy day!

I've also hung out with Spicehobbit this weekend (before the terrible Tuesday) while Peting was at the LARP this Saturday. It was his turn, and he had a new character and the GM's had done some SERIOUS planning and it was quite special and awesome a LARP apparently. :-) So I am glad he got to go. Me and Alexandra and Spicehobbit played around on the floor and watched Disney Junior until it was bedtime for Alexandra.

After that we watched Supernatural! YES! At first we got the borrow the first 4 seasons from one of Spicehobbits workmates. But said (really nice) woman got sacked. Urgh. :-/ So no more fangirling at work for Spicehobbit and no more borrowing Supernatural for us. Instead I got season 5 + 6 from Spicehobbit as a birthday gift! :-D

So now we are watching season 5! We always watch the first two two and the last two episodes together, then we let the DVD-box move between us, so to speak. I am now up to episode 11. And I keep saying, nah... The angst can't get much worse now. And then it does. *LOL* It IS a good show! Much, much better then I had thought. I keep getting pleasantly surprised, which is nice. :-) I doubt I'll start reading fanfic or anything... :-P I just don't feel it. But I do very much enjoy the show, that I will admit. :-)

Anyway, so we had a lovely time that Saturday!

Saturday coming up though, it's my turn to go to the LARP and I am SOOOO looking forward to it! I haven't been to the LARP in a long time. We both missed plenty during the summer, what with birthday parties, visits and vacations. But now summer is over, so business as usual again.

One of my dear young LARP-friends who I play very closely with came over and visited yesterday (Thursday) so we could plot and discuss LARP and such. It was AWESOME! Also, she loves kids so she was crawling on the floor playing with Alexandra as well. :-D Was a wonderful day! And now we have made plans for our characters and I am seriously itching for Saturday to come around! :-D

But before that I have boring RL stuff to deal with. Like plan for Alexandras introduction to daycare. Deal with paperwork of DOOM from the employment office and the unemployment fund. And bills. Fun times.

URGH...

Over and out for now!

Life as a mom... including fandom stuff and TV-shows and LARP and I don't even know what...

May. 17th, 2013 12:47 am
kseenaa: (Default)
I've been failing quite hard with updates. If anyone would be interested in my life, that is. :-P

Alexandra grows so fast, I am having a hard time keeping up at times. She is soon 1 year old. o.O Where the HELL did time go? It'll be worse as she gets older, won't it...? *eyes mothers on f-list*

I don't do hugely much during the days. I try to get us out of the apartment at least once a day. Which makes me spread out my grocery shopping, so I just get a little a day, and go many days instead. Also, less to carry. And I have a tendency to forget things. *lol*

I planned to update about... something. But now I can't for the life of me remember what it was. I'll just continue to ramble, and maybe all you lot can make some sense out of it. *lol*

Baby Swimming class is all over and done with for Alexandra now. When we started, 16 weeks ago, she loved it. Then midway through, she started to be really fussy and crying after 15-20mins (each class was 30mins long) and then cry until I put her in the pram (after shower and cleaning...)... But the last two times went better... So I'll definitely keep this swimming thing up. I think it is good for her. Having a kid afraid of water is not an option when I LOVE to be in the water myself.

Also, I am watching up on Supernatural, since [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit still gets to borrow season after season from one of her work-mates. Currently I am working my way through season 4. Yes, Castiel is pretty cool. Yes, this show seriously SERIOUSLY needs a subtitle. And that subtitle would be ANGST! *lol* Haven't finished off the season, so no spoilers please.

Talking about spoilers, thanx to my f-list for putting everything about Game of Thrones behind a cut. Swedish television will most likely not show season three until autumn/winter... So I will most likely not see it until then. LJ-cuts are my lovely friend, I will admit. Can't wait to watch more though!

And about Game of Thrones... I saw this today, and honestly.. It made my day! X-D I laughed SO HARD!

11 reasons why Xena is better then Game of Thrones!

Awesome, ain't it? X-D Either that or I am easily amused.

I've also checked out the Netflix series Hemlock Groove. Because I love werewolves almost as much as I love vampires. And hey, younger brother Skarsgård has one of the leads in it. Bill Skarsgård, that is. So I started to watch it. And got a flashback to Twin Peaks so hard my head started to spin! X-D And not in a bad way! If you get a chance, I highly suggest checking this series out. It is very well made and really good! :-D And got the coolest werewolf transformation I've yet to seen, seriously... AWESOME take on werewolf-myth there!

What I've been doing more?

Well... I've spent my evenings doing RP in g-chatt and G-docs with [livejournal.com profile] snowstormskies. She'd never ever done RP before, so when we started out, it was some misunderstandings with what RP really is and what you do and how it works and so on... I've been doing it for YEARS! Not to mention I LARP and do classical pen-paper-dice-roleplay to. But [livejournal.com profile] snowstormskies? Total beginner. But now? Now she's got the hang of it. AND HOW! It has been a LOOOONG time since I had this much fun in an RP. :-) The plot wasn't that complicated to start. But like with all RP's... It grew. And our characters took on a life. And now, at least I, am DAMN addicted... :-D

Also, older gang-Geo and hurt-jackrabbit-young-BotTom? Dude. It is fun. And how! X-D

The other day though, [livejournal.com profile] snowstormskies scared the shit out of me. She wanted to publish our RP on AO3 and was all excited about it. Now I've never let anyone not involved read my RP's. Unless you are the person I RP with, of course. Then you'll get it all, grammar and spelling mistakes as it is! So to publish that... feels weird, since it is quite private to me. We came to an understanding though, and she promised not to post it on any fic-sites, but IF (big if) it gets posted anywhere it'll be on our private LJ's or on our own community [livejournal.com profile] hydrafics. It would still feel weird to me, but if posted there? I can deal with it. :-) I don't feel like I belong on a fic-site, really. :-P

Anyway!

Talking about RP makes me think about the vampire-LARP as well! We go one time each me and [livejournal.com profile] peting73. Last LARP it was [livejournal.com profile] peting73s turn, and he had a lot of fun like always. :-D I love his character. He is SO AWESOME! X-D Think 1970's punkrocker with a cherry attitude and befriended with all the homeless people on the streets who he helps... and is a vampire to boot! *lol* He is SO CUTE! X-D

My character on the other has had some magic done to her of one sort or another which leaves her being a total bitch... on PMS. It is good that at least one of her two lovers (!) is effected by the same magic to. And yes. She DOES have two lovers! :-D One financially smart guy and one fighter all muscles and brawn. It is SO MUCH FUN to play out! :-D And yeah, I am good friends with both boys playing her lovers. :-D

I love the LARP and all the friends I've made there. Seriously. So glad my friend [livejournal.com profile] kaijn dragged me there way back in 2003 even though I had NO idea what it was all about back then. :-) Now I've been doing this none-stop for 10 years... Scary thought. X-D

Hey, this turned longer then planned! :-D It happens. ;-) I'll get better at updating! I hope at least. ;-)

MIA!

Mar. 14th, 2013 12:07 am
kseenaa: (Default)
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*
