Cartoon Craziness Challenge – Happiness

August 9, 2014 The Indecisive Eejit20 Comments

There are lots of things that make me happy, but the sad reality is that never in a million years would I be able to draw them. I don’t think that Udders and Monkey would appreciate being stick people, but lets face it, adding meat to dem bones would be a disaster, I am not good at drawing people.

If you hadn’t guessed, Happiness is the theme for this week. There are a lot of things I would be happy about, but I try not to think about them, because they are never going to happen. Things like getting my free time back, being able to go out without having to put a 25 step plan in place and only having to do my own washing and ironing.

So I racked my brains for a little while longer, and narrowed it down to just 4, of the many that make me happy:

CC Challenge 5 - Peach and Quiet — Juls was unable to put her copy of “How to lose a girl in 10 ways” down.

Peace and quiet, I would love just one weekend of peace and quiet. No cooking, no cleaning, no having to field arguments, dodge temper tantrums and no feeling guilty about doing the things I NEED to do on my weekend.

CC Challenge 5 - Legolas — Give us a kiss blondie!

For anyone who is not a Lord of the Rings fan you will have no clue who this is. To be fair, even if you are a Lord of the Rings fan, the chances are you would still wouldn’t have had a clue if I hadn’t written his name on it. Seeing Legolas on screen always makes me happy. I used to dream about him at night, and that made me really……oh never mind!

CC Challenge 5 - My Camera — In case you were wondering, it’s a camera!

Photography is another one, I love getting out and about with my camera. I am certainly no David Bailey, but I am snap happy. It’s not as easy as it used to be though, the addition of Alien Leg into the mix makes for getting those out of reach shots a little more difficult.

CC Challenge 5 - The Blog — Juls works on her latest post!

By far the thing that makes me the happiest right now is this blog. I love all the amazing people I have met, and feel very blessed to have become a part of the community. New things to read, means something to smile about every day.

Now it’s your turn, show us in a doodle what Happiness means to you! These people did:

Lee and Paul are irked with me, I know they are, but it’s not my fault. I’m still having a blog identity crisis!

I know when I asked this question before, most of you said that it does not matter what the name of your blog is, if the content is good. Lee made a comment on the last post saying that it did not matter what I did because I would never be happy, and in all honestly he is probably right, I’m never happy with what I write and can’t really see how people get enjoyment from it. I am assuming however, that most bloggers feel the same, if not all the time then at least at some point.

I started this blog for a laugh, I didn’t in all honesty think I would stick at it, my track record is pretty rubbish where blogs are concerned. I had no clear idea of what I wanted to write, in fact I still don’t, but I know now from reading other blogs from people I would class as proper gamers, not casual ones like myself that I don’t feel I deserve to have the word gamer in my title. Now I am back to work full time after the ‘Alien Leg’ incident I don’t get the same time for gaming that I used to, in fact blogging has probably now filled that space.

So do I pigeon hole myself by being called ‘The Geeky G4mer’? I have no idea, but I’ve already had to clarify the fact that I am a woman, so there could be some slight issues there. :)

Coming up with a new name however is a nightmare, I’d thought about Operation Eejit and that’s pretty much where it ended, after 5 minutes I had worn myself out.

I think what has surprised me the most is how much I am actually enjoying blogging, I love to entertain, I like to at least try and make people laugh, but in reality that is only a small part of the big picture. I’ve really enjoyed the interaction with others and meeting new people, blogging really does make it a small world. It’s made me smile on days when I thought there was no hope of turning the frown upside down.

So maybe that’s the point. I want to try and stick at this and see how it goes, so is my head telling me I need a more permanent name, or am I just being an arse like Paul and Lee say.

I’ve put on a poll. I really appreciate your opinions, so if you could spare two seconds to vote I would be eternally grateful :)

On a happier note, I reached 500 likes today. Thank you so much to all of you for reading and liking my posts, I could not have done it without you!! You lot are awesome and I’m really lucky to have met you all :)
