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.

OMG! Can it be over soon? *sigh* Yes, I am talking pregnancy and Nerd Jr... The little one is stealing ALL my energy! ALL! *sigh* I get nothing done around here, and it frustrates the hell out of me. Thank gawd [livejournal.com profile] peting73 is such a patient and understanding man. And slightly insane. For the record, I love that man. And I am quite convinced he'll rock as a dad.

According to midwifes/nurses that I've talked to during all my checkups Nerd Jr is scheduled to be born 6th of August... That's in three days... SO SOON! Goodness... Of course, one never knows. In the end of the day, the only one to decide is Nerd Jr herself/himself. Here in Sweden you go on checkups constantly during these last weeks, and if you go 2 weeks past the due date, you have to go to the maternity ward at the hospital and they'll start up the delivery with medication. So. Sometime between now and the 20th of August it can happen at ANY TIME!

Meantime, I am clumsier then ever. My legs are swollen like you wouldn't believe. Thank gawd for mom lending me her compression stockings or I would have been even more handicapped, dammit... I have no energy and feel like just one big blob. :-/

NERD JR! MOM TALKING! GET OUT OF THERE! I WANNA MEET YOU AND GET MY BODY BACK, DAMMIT!

And still I have no HUGE belly really. Nerd Jr has made herself/himself comfy quite far in my body... which makes bending over quite a chore. And of course that makes me drop things on the floor ALL THE TIME! :-P *annoyed at this*

Anyway, the most important thing is that we've been told on all them checkups that Nerd Jr is doing perfectly fine in there all set for birth with her/his head down as it should be. Steady and strong heart-beats and everything.

I've been a bit worried about all my scars from my Endometriosis and from all the surgery I've had to do because of it... not to mention the myoma on the side of my utures. That all of that would be an hindrance in giving birth naturally. But apparently, down there? Nothing is in the way. :-) No scars, no myomas no nothing. So should be all fine! THANK GAWD! My stomach has been cut up enough! No need to add more scars to it if one can help it!

So now all I have to do is wait... and wait... and wait. *sigh*

[livejournal.com profile] peting73 and his mom is quite convinced that Nerd Jr is a girl. Mom and my best friend [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit is convinced Nerd Jr is a boy. Me? I have NO IDEA! So I am stuck in the middle right there.

So I made a poll! :-D Polls are fun, right? :-) We'll see later down the line who wins. *grin*

[Poll #1858156]

According to [livejournal.com profile] peting73 there should be a prize down the line for those who get it right... No, I have NO idea what the man talks about! X-D So we'll see, I suppose. :-)

Talking off Nerd Jr, she/he got a gift today! :-D All the way from Canada! A seriously cute Montreal shirt from [livejournal.com profile] rule_number_7! Thank you SO MUCH, luv! :-D It is SERIOUSLY cute! And it WILL be used! :-D Take my word for it. :-)

To end this post I'll share a few more links. I always seem to collect links when I am surfing the net. "Oh, I gotta share this on my LJ!" X-D Anyone else have that problem? Finding stuff they just wanna share? I do all the time. :-P So here goes!

This walrus made my day the other day! :-D He sure got his rhythm down, doesn't he? ;-)

Rocking out to to the King of Pop! )

Cute, wasn't he? :-D

This vid also rocked my socks off! Seriously! Not only is it very professionally done, it is cute, funny and the lyrics... Just WINS! Don't we all want to sing this to random haters when needed? ;-) I sure know I would love to at times!

Thank you, Hater! <3  )

Another fun thing I found was... this review of 50 Shades of Grey... Yes. THAT book. The Twilight-fanfic-book. That makes all the people actually living and breathing a proper BDSM relationship RAGE like you wouldn't believe. After reading this epic review though, I feel... I kinda have to read it. Just to experience how epically bad it can get. But I won't pay for it, oh hell no! Libraries, here I come.

Katrina Lumsden's review of Fifty Shades of Grey on Goodreads

It's hilarious! And all the gifs! Just read it! :-D

Talking about authors, have one that is actually one of the best authors out there... even if the man is dead. JRR Tolkien. Anyone who stands up to the Nazis during WWII wich such style and such excellent use of words... Got my vote as one HELL of a rocking author! :-D Apparently the Nazis wanted to make sure Mr Tolkien REALLY was of arish decent before agreeing to publish his book The Hobbit in 1938. And Tolkien? Well, he proceeded with ripping them a new one... just the way a proper englishman would. :-D

Letters of Note: Tolkiens letter to the publishers in Nazi Germany.

Also, also! I want to play this game... It looks so WONDERFULLY creepy! And so cute at the same time! I love that combination! :-D Among the Sleep... A baby and his (her?) teddybear trying to survive the things that go bump in the night... It is so so CUTE!

Among the Sleep - Gameplay Teaser... )

I really really love the look of that game...

Right, so... That would be all for today. :-) I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL weekend!

[livejournal.com profile] tomstav - where everything is Tomstav and nothing hurts ♥


Yay! :-D A Tomstav community! Probably one of the rarest pairings in the TH fandom, a pairing I really love... and then a community shows up, just like that! AWESOME! *is happy* Spread the word, will you? :-)

Hey... Wait what...? It is already past 2am... How did this happen? Oh well. I've pretty much fucked up my sleeping pattern this week anyway. :-P Might come in handy tomorrow. LARP-day tomorrow! YAY! And I won't be playing my regular character either, oh no... The GM's have a special LARP prepared, and everyone has gotten different characters this time written specially by the GM's. I got mine. Called Janus. Yes, after the god... And for a reason. *lol* She is a really REALLY cool character and probably the most powerful and oldest character I've ever had the pleasure of playing... Turned to a vampire 1780... a diplomat with a very very... nightmarish hobby, shall we say. Such a wicked woman. I can't wait to play her.

Visited [livejournal.com profile] spicehobbit yesterday and borrowed some off her jewelry. She has a thing for vintage jewelry and has collected quite a bit! So I got to borrow some really wicked stuff. The oldest is a brooch from 1910 with a gorgeous spider on it. o.O Dude. 1910. That brooch is over 100 years old. o.O But she just trusts me with it and happily lets me borrow her stuff... And she offered to come over tomorrow before the LARP and do my hair... I think I'll take her up on the offer. :-D Awesome best friends are AWESOME!!! :-D

Yes, photos will happen. YES! I will post said photos! PROMISE!

AnyHOW!

I have a question for you all. A long time ago when I spammed my flist with a ton off voice memes, someone... don't remember who... said I had an interesting voice and wondered what I sounded like talking swedish... Now this got stuck in my head, and now I gotta ask... Would someone be interested in hearing what it sounds like when I speak swedish? I'd read a short part out of my favorite book if so, both in swedish and in english so the differences can be heard.

Would that be off interest?

Have a poll. :-)

[Poll #1823536]
Felt kinda sick... ish yesterday. Better today though. :-P Mostly cramps which has kept me down in the dumps to put it mildly. :-/ I hate my ovaries at times, I really and honestly do.

I kinda need your help though!

This layout I have right now, I commissioned [livejournal.com profile] subvocaled from the community [livejournal.com profile] pearlseas to make for me. Yes, I paid for it. Yes, I love it. It is a really neat layout, and I couldn't be more happy. [livejournal.com profile] subvocaled has been very kind and have been easy to work with all in all. :-)

But then I got an email. See, there is another layout designer that I admire hugely: [livejournal.com profile] gawariel of [livejournal.com profile] gawariel_design, but she hasn't done any layouts in a long, LONG time... I do remember I put myself up on her waiting list years ago.... But since there has been NO updates to her community or anything, I figured that was that, and was cool with it to. In this email though she asks if anyone on her oooold waiting list is interested still, since she is going to work through it and finish of all the layouts... And... I am conflicted like hell. I mean, she is working with web-design professionally... she is good... REALLY FUCKING GOOD! Of course I'd have to pay her to (about the same price almost...), and I mean... Just look at the examples here:

Gawariels Commision Showcase

I mean, just LOOK at that! o.O The newest are at the bottom, I might add... I'm on second place, so whenever she is done with her current layout, it is my turn. If I want one...

So, my trust F-list. Should I? Shouldn't I? HELP!

I will lose weight on this....

Today I have been riding my bike back and forth between two libraries. I start my day at one. And apparently it all consists of meetings. Two hours. Then back to the school library for two hours and another meeting. And then back to the first library again for two more hours. Then home. Yeah. :-P But it was fun, none the less. All off them librarians have been very nice to me and we have had some interesting discussions today, that really made me think.

We started to talk about a book (I forgot what it is called now) that they had to stop kids from reading. This boggled my mind, I don't wanna censure kids from books. But when they told me what the book was about, I started to think about it...

The book was about a teenaged girl. Being raped by a group of boys... Yes. Not one, but a group. The librarians had read this book, and said it was very raw and described the event as terrible and how the girl got back on her feet again, and it ended on a good note. The writer had the right idea, trying to show what to do when something terrible happens to you.

But... Kids that really was far to young to read this book, that were only 11 or 12 years old... read it and thought it was cool. The book is meant for older teens, but it still stands among the books marked for teens/young adults. And you are a teen/young adult from the age off 12/13 until 19... That is a big age-gap. The younger teens read this book thinking it is a cool book, not seeing the horror in it. :-/ So yeah... I can understand them librarians not wanting to let younger girls and boys borrow this book. I think I want to read it to see what it is all about.

So. I created a poll. :-) It might not make perfect sense, but the discussions today sure made me think. What do you think?
