I happen to like that David Bowie song. At least the title. Occassionally, in my life, it’s applied to me. I’m quite happy to say that I’m in one of those periods now.

Late last year, we started renovating the house. Parts of it at least. First time in the nearly 10 years I’ve lived in the house that we’ve made major changes. Frustrating, annoying and expensive, yes, but the end result is something to look forward to and it’s not that far away now *crosses fingers* renovations will include a new office space for yours truly.

In December, I bought a new car. An ‘08 Mustang GT. Sweet! Bright orange that sometimes looks yellow.  Gaudy and loud? yes. Impractical, yes, but what the hell?

In February, I bought my first laptop which also happened to be my first Mac. I’m now mobile!

In April, I got an offer I couldn’t refuse and finally went to my boss at the EDJ and asked to go part time. This is, perhaps, the biggest step of them all and the most frightening, especially in this economy. But it was taken well and there’s a good chance I could get my full time job back if I needed it in a few months, so what the heck?

Yesterday, I got my hair colored for the first time. Small change, yes, but a psychological one for me. Cut short, streaked blonde, tinted a purple/red then and overall dye of violet purple. It looks fantastic! and it goes with the SO’s cobalt blue hair.

The SO has been going through changes as well, for the better, so we have similar hopes for him.

*crosses fingers* I’ve named the good changes, there have been some less-than-good, but that goes with the territory, right? Nothing hasn’t been surmountable, even if it’s seemed so at the time. I can only keep plugging along and hope for the best, right?

Well, and keep writing smut! That seems to be making ALL the difference!
