  Life Update

  Goodness, it's been a while since I posted here. Much news in my world, get ready for it.... I was laid off! YAY!!! I'm a statistic! 13 years at the station I worked for, and it's all gone in about fifteen minutes, maybe even less. That happened Dec. 5 and I still haven't found a new job. I'm actually starting to get really worried, since my severance runs out next month. I don't know how much longer I'll be able to keep computer access, but hopefully something will happen soon. A friend is trying to help me get a job at a local Walgreens, but I'm not really holding my breath. Sure, its not what I'm trained for, and seems like a step down, but you do what you have to do. Worse comes to worse, I'll be moving to Las Vegas sooner than I expected. I went out there for Christmas, and it was great seeing my family, but now I miss them more than ever. Though I do have to say it assuaged some of my fears about moving out there. I really like the mountains and it didn't seem big city-y at all. Though I didn't like all the sub-divisions and shopping centers. I guess they had to fill all that desert land with something, and with no trees or forests to get in the way, they had plenty of room to build. I've lived in a place with a long history, and Vegas is so new. Hopefully I'll be able to find a job there. Anyway, I think that's it. I hope everyone had a great holiday and new year.

  Well, well, well.... And Happy Thanksgiving

  Okay, so I've put off blogging here because I really don't like the new format; especially of the profile pages. It looks so bland. But, I figured I'd better drop by just in case anyone out there remembers me.

  So, for those who would like, here's an update on my life. Nothing much has changed, I am definitely moving to Las Vegas next July, and I'm filled with stress over saving the money for said move, finding a job, and an apartment, and just living in Las Vegas, which I may have wanted to visit at one time, but where I've never wanted to live. Nothing against it, and no offense to anyone who lives there, but I'm just not a desert kind of girl. But, there be my nephew, and so there I shall reside. I'll do a whole blog about this later, but if anyone who is reading this has lived there, or still lives there, maybe you can give me a little info. Best neighborhoods, areas of the city to avoid, and, like, such as....

  Okay, so updates on videos. Well, I believe I've made several since I last blogged... ah, yes, I see the last one I listed was Chasing Pavements.

  Okay, so here are the new ones...

  Okay, so there are three promos that I made for the contest at YTDAW for September.

  My For Warrick Promo

  Season 9 promo for YTDAW

  GSR season 9 promo

  And then a video I made for a contest on youtube. (it didn't win, but I think it's pretty good)

  Lost (by Michael Buble'

  And then the video I made for the October contest at YTDAW.. (which I DID win)

  One of these Mornings~ For Warrick

  And for a video I actually filmed. I was walking around downtown Macon, where I live, and I came upon something I just had to make a video of.

  Kung Foo Birdies

  As for my writing... well, still working on my book, but I did recently get inspired by the latest offerings by CSI. I had to get my feelings out so I started a series of ficlet's in which each of Grissom's friends, and Hank, come to realize that....

  Something is Terribly Wrong

  There are only 4 chaplets so far, but I have more in various stages of completion. Either they're handwritten and just need to be typed up, typed up but still need finishing touches, or finished but destined for later on in the series. In any case, I hope to finish them by Grissom's last episode.

  Okay, I think that about does it. I hope that everyone has a very good Thanksgiving. In preparation for moving, I've had to reevaluate some things, and I'm taking the time to really explore all the things about my city that I've always loved, and taking time to say goodbye. I don't know if I'll ever live here again, and it really makes me grateful for all the experiences that I've had here. Things haven't always been great, but life is rarely perfect. Anyway, take time to be thankful for the little things that you take for granted. You never know when your world will be turned upside down.

  Love to all

  Maisy

  Dropping by....

  Hey guys!

  Not much to say. I will most likely be moving to Las Vegas in a year, due to my family moving out there on the very spur of the moment. I have to wait until next September, though. I'm not really a spur of the moment kind of gal, especially not with much money.

  I ask you this, if John Edwards will cheat on his sick wife, is there any hope for the rest of the male members of the species? I'm never surprised at what politicians do, but this truly shocked me.

  Oh, new GSR video.

  GSR~ Chasing Pavements

  Enjoy
