So by now most of you guys who are still on Lj know I'm getting married. You also know that his name is Clyde. Some of you have figured out who he is but I tried to keep his identity a secret for a while....but now that he's declared his love for me, I'm gonna reveal his identity.
I think I've said that we met on Lj, right? In case you didn't know, I met the man I'm marrying on Livejournal.
His name is ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.1) zontiago.
<3
Oh yeah. P90X and those pictures? Yup. All real....and now all mine. w00t!!
Forever and ever.

Wedding planning has been kicking my ass. Why did no one tell me this is so painful and so hard?!
The weird part about it all is.....I kind of like it. That makes me wonder if I'm secretly into S&M or something. Scary, huh?
The weirdEST part is that while it's no walk in the park for sure, I thought it would be a lot worse than it really is. I'm planning it by myself (Clyde is on hand 24/7 for support in case I have an epic meltdown. He knows his job is to calm my ass down and get me a drink. ^_^) and we're paying for it ourselves.
That's the challenge I've accepted and I'm gonna make it call me Mommy!!! <- that made no sense whatsoever but whatever.
Hope you guys are doing well out there in Lj-Land! :D

Dear Lj,
How befitting that I post this here because this is where it all started. Literally. And yes, I'm dead serious. This is where my husband-to-be met me and stalked me all over the interwebs.
And now we're getting married.
Lj, thank you for bringing so much into my life. You introduced me to friends I will love for the rest of my life. You also brought the love of my life onto these cyberpages. I even know the exact date when he first left me a comment.
You will always have a special place in my heart because, through you, so much joy, love and friendship have come my way.
I am grateful.
Thank you.
By the way, did I mention that I'm getting married? :D
Hooray!!!!
<3,
LadyMandarin

I can't remember the last time I posted anything on here! It seems like the majority of my Lj friends have moved on to WP, blogger, FB and/or Twitter.
I'm guilty of the all the above.
But I still have a soft spot for Lj. :)
So what's been new...hm....I ran a 1/2 marathon with Clyde (the BF). Almost 9 months later, we're still together. He is most awesome. I love the man very much.
Work is killing me, I'm in a writing group thing and....life is good. I'm happy. :)

Wtf...I seem to be updating on a monthly basis. Oops.
So here's the breakdown of what happened.
I really like Kollaboration because I really believe in what Paul PK Kim does. The man's got a vision and he isn't afraid to follow it. Gotta respect that. I mentioned to Clyde I had wanted to see it and what does my awesome boyfriend do? He gets us VIP tickets.
The man is also a beast because he friggin ran the LA Marathon. I am so proud of him. He did something not very many people can say they've done in their lifetime. Very inspiring. I decided I'm gonna complete it before I hit 35. :D
I then had a super shitty day at work but it was okay because IT WAS CONAN TO THE RESCUE!!!. And then I watched something about this AppleGirl doing crazy things with a bunch of iPhones.
I also learned how to use a power drill on humans but in such a way where I won't have to fear going to prison.
My friend's helping his friend look for possible cast members in that Asian version of the Jersey Shore and asked me if I'm interested.
To cap off this update, I learned what not to do at a wedding unless you really Really REALLY hate the bride and bridegroom. Jeezus.

So I found something that's kind of gross. It's something called a Meta Meat Cake. Dude, there's nothing sweet about this monstrosity unless you happen to think heart attacks are delicious.
I also found a new song to rock out to whenever I find myself at karaoke! :D
The night I discovered that song was also the night my friend MissQT and I got together for some much needed catching up time. I started thinking about my past relationships in terms of where I felt like I had room to grow.
I realize Clyde and I haven't been together long. It's only been a little over a month...sure, we've had sporadic contact over the last two years but still...I'm only starting to get to know the man now. I'm having a great time. :)
It's kind of hard to think about such things when the kind of neighbors I do. I don't know what they're doing and I think one of them moonlights as a dominatrix.
Lastly, I recently discovered that staring at boobs is good for you if you're a man. Who'd of thought? :D

Clyde and I went to go see The Wolfman. I was terrified. Poor Clyde...I should check to see if I left any lasting marks on his skin from my kung fu death grip. :D
Then I got really sick and super cranky. I also made up really weird names for one of my neighbors. I don't know what to call the other one yet.
My delirium kicked in and then I started writing down every freaking thing I heard. Wow, I was super cantankerous. Awesomeness.
And then I went to the Emergency Room. Yeah....that was an adventure...
:D

I saw the full trailer. It looked pretty good but I don't know.
He better not mess this up.

I have no idea why I started thinking about work and some of the crazier things I see but I did. Some of the things I see involve medical leeches. I've named them Seymour.

Holy crap, a lot of time has passed since my last post. This is catching up time. All the little links will take you to a separate post which should open in another window. :D I hate using the back button...can you tell? Haa haa haa!! :D
Anyway, so back to why I've been MIA. That's because I've moved into my own apartment.
You have no idea how friggin' AWESOME Clyde is. He knows moving is stressing me the hell out (I try not to show it but he's good. He just knows. He's like...a Jedi or something. I dunno yet but I'll figure it out). He seriously rocks my socks.
I've learned a few things about myself when it comes to moving. One of them is that I'm not afraid to get dirty. :D
Another is that I've become domesticated within less than a month flat. Holy crap....Clyde's good!! x)
The last thing I learned? I had a great time watching Super Bowl with Clyde....in my completely empty apartment...and he liked it too. Hey. It was his idea. I was just happy to spend time with him. :D

I have no idea why I can't sleep. Somehow insomnia for me means I want to cook something. Listening to Christina Aguilera's "Candyman" makes me want to bake cookies.
That means I wanted to try baking cookies from scratch for Clyde. And then I remembered what happened the last time I tried to bake cookies from scratch...

I'm usually counting down the seconds before I'm released from recertification hell.
Yesterday, however, was a different story. I never saw the connection between CPR and sex but, omfg, I have seen the light!
I'll never look at CPR the same way ever again. Good God....

I won't ask you to give me your time without telling you why.
It is the least I could do in return for your precious 10 seconds. This organization does tremendous work and brings such hope to so many victims.
I know I joke around a lot. I take almost nothing seriously. However, this is one of the handful of things I do take seriously. Very seriously.
So please, if I could ask for just 10 seconds of your time, whoever you are, please vote for Center For The Pacific Asian Family.
Thank you.

Clyde is awesome. He's the responsible one out of the two of us. Thank God because I'm all over the place. So I've noticed I've been using two words a lot more recently.
They are "baby" and "please". As in "Baby, please can we nap for 5 more minutes? Pleeeaaaasseeeeeeee?" and he never tells me no. I'm so FTW!!!

My friend’s been making me laugh since the day he randomly started chatting me up on friggin Friendster. He was so funny, I made my date take me to this comedy show where he had a show on Fridays.
That's right. I made my date take me to go see another guy perform on stage.

If you follow me on Twitter, you know that last night was a gathering of * sort of * epic proportions. There were 7 of but we all converged in the middle of Ktown to partake in a most peculiar delicacy – LIVE OCTOPUS!
So who emerged victorious from the dinner table?
But the most important question is - Did I have to Heimlich anyone to save them from still functional suction cups on the octopus? :D

I haven't thought about this for a long time...that is, until the other night when I got the weirdest email from some guy who lives in Africa.
How he found me is beyond me since we have nothing and no one in common.
If it wasn't for Dennis, I don't think I ever would've sat my ass down to write this friggin' Top Ten list.
