Of Strings, Sharpies, and Action Figures

I've had this window open for about half and hour now, trying to get motivation to actually write something down. So, here goes! (don't laugh) Right, well, I'm Liz, Lizzy, Eliza, pick a form of Elizabeth that doesn't start with "B" and you can call me that! 
So, nobody but Shanyn posted a picture, so I'm going to, but my iSight on this computer is messed up so it will look really weird.
   That's my bunny! Her name is Thumper! I'm so original I know!    ^ that's my guitar his name is Alex!
I couldn't decide just one fact about me so I'm going to do two! The first being that I cannot be mean no matter how hard I try and sometimes that has HUGE effect on my life and makes things suck. The second is that I've always had really strange dreams and I almost always remember them and I have a lot of recurring dreams. So, ever since I was little, I've believed that what I dream happens to my parallel self in a parallel universe. I actually wrote my NaNoWriMo about it and it started off good, but then turned into terrible mush that I will probably never read again!
Aww Andy, broken glasses are the worst! Glasses are the worst, but even worse when they break. My glasses are actually like four prescriptions behind so I have to get some new one's soon! Woo-hoo! 
Don't worry Yelena, I'll probably go on longer than you did! I hope the piano thing goes well! I take piano, and I love the instrument, I just hate taking lessons and having people tell me how to play it, it sucks the soul out of it I think.
Shower Ninjas? Really? I have to be worried about Shower Ghosts AND Shower Ninjas now? Ack!
Now for the "me" part of the blog! Well, this week as been off. I've been sick the entire week, didn't go to school yesterday, but I'm finally feeling better! I like being sick when it's a cold or something because I feel a lot more open and I kind of shed the image I try to uphold which I just do much more often. So maybe being sick was actually a blessing!
It's been snowing all day, and while it is an admittedly beautiful snow, I am sick of winter! Wednesday night it was -14 degrees Fahrenheit out and our furnace broke down in the middle of the night. Then the furnace fixer people came the next day and I had to answer the door to them in my pajamas! Right now it's 15 degrees out which feels very warm after last month when most of the time the temperature was in the -20s. What's the temperature for you guys?
Haha I used spell check and for blollab the closest it could come up with was blob. I don't know why I find that so funny, but I do. 
I'm going to suggest a theme/challenge thing for next week. I think we should all either write about a strange object that is near our computers that most likely wouldn't be there, or about running into someone that you "knew" from the internet, or TV, or wherever and how strange that was. You can do either one, both, or none! I'm cool with whatever!
I've been writing this for an hour now 1. because I'm very ADD and 2. because I lack motivation! I'm actually trying to muster up some motivation to make a flyer because my teacher thinks I'm the most artistic in my class. Oh how wrong he is. And how exactly does one make car races "artistic"? 'Cos I would really love to know!
I really love this blollab! Can't wait to read from you on Monday, Shanyn! 

<3

p.s. the wind's picked up and now it's blizzarding out! Joy! 
p.p.s. Does anyone else use the term "blizzarding" or is that just a Mid-West kind of thing?
p.p.p.s. I'm cringing at all of the grammatical errors I've made in this post!
