I got creative with Lissa's room while she was with Casey J. I put her ball gowns on the walls and strung lights around a Black Veil Brides poster Casey got for her. Also a metal guitar beer sign her dad had and funky mushroom lights in the aquarium. When you turn down the lights, it looks awesome. She loved it. I found the checked curtains at a junk store and dyed old sheers purple. I also made her a Black Veil Brides lamp, with a blue light bulb, which she loved, but, the pic was blurry. On the other side of the room, she took her dad's old huge desk and made a makeup and hair station. It's cute, it looks like a Goth beauty shop. Anyhow, that's her room. Indie slept there the whole time she was gone, it was the only place he could get any peace from the yellow cat, who has been renamed, Marvin Gaye. Marvin Gaye is going to the nut cut doctor Monday morning. It can't happen too soon. OMG, he has the most foul fucking spray. It smells like propane and makes my eyes water. He got picked up by the dog catcher and when I called, some lady from the Humane Society brought him back for free. I just had to promise to neuter him. I had explained to her, the cat is a stray and the car was in the shop. I'll keep my promise to neuter him, but, I could not promise to keep him in the house all the time. His spray gives me migraines and makes me vomit. Besides, he tore out a screen to get out and fight. I had opened a window to air out my laundry room. I have NEVER smelled anything like this. OMG, if I had known, I wouldn't have called animal control. I would have let them neuter him and them adopted him. It would have cost a fortune (not that it won't anyway) but, jesus christ on a fucking crutch, he has toxic pee spray and they do not make enough fabreeze to cover that. My entire house is covered in old furniture pads which I wash constantly. This is the last time I entertain an unneutered tom cat in my house. I would rather put out a campfire with my face and French kiss a rabid skunk. I know they brought him back free because he is most likely unadoptable. People don't stand in line for some old beat up, yellow tomcat. But, I swear, he was the most mellow old cat until animal control got him. Being in a small cage fucked his brain. He was so glad to come home. Call me nuts, but, I think he thought he'd never see us again. This is his first real home and it took him this long to accept it and know I wasn't going to turn on him. He owes me though. I hope he knows that.
The name Marvin Gaye came because Lis asked me how all these crazy animals know to come here. I said, 'they heard it through the grapevine' and Marvin Gaye it was.
PS..does anyone have a kid who's still into Hannah Montanna? Because I have a huge box of merch, including sheets, curtains, clocks, posters..etc.
OMG, he's sooooooo hot. ~eye roll~ This head banger phase cannot end too soon for me.

Love Lis' room. That ball gown makes a beautiful night light. And I know why Indie likes it in there. A fur throw, who wouldn't like a fur throw that he could roll around in. And it doesn't fight back.
Her room is awesome!
I had a cat like that once. There is no getting rid of that smell :(
This was 20 years ago though, hope they have come out with better products since then.
Good luck.

Just had to drag Marina out here to see Lissa's room. She whooped and hollered because guess what - Marina is the HUGEST BVB fan! Andy Biersack is the man of her dreams!! (Ok sure...)
Marina is also, like Lis - A Bring Me the Horizon fan and she spied that BVB poster on Lissa's wall and now desperately wants that to add to her wall collection. The girl has so many black band t shirts its riciculous.
She wants to know if Lissa knows/likes some other bands - 21 Pilots, Sleeping With Sirens.
Some of the music I like too. I was surprised! Did I tell you Marina's been taking guitar lessons since summer. She has a book she writes lyrics in - but Im not allowed to read it. At least not yet. And probably never.
Oh she also said to ask if Lissa likes Pierce The Veil. Im sure theres more to come.
There's a product called Nature's Miracle that breaks up and eliminates cat odors. It's pricey but it really works. Most lesser brands don't. (I only come here to play the "Prove you're not a robot" picture puzzle, but thought I'd comment while here.)
LOVE her dress on the wall - that is awesome :)
Haha...oh the BVB phase. I had two kids go through it, and they were done by gr8. Now my niece is into it. I think Andy's cute, actually. If you want the phase to stop earlier, post pics all over your living room of Andy kissing *your* cheek. That will put an end to things even quicker lol. I used to call him Andy Nutsack. But I remember my mom calling Motley Crue "Moldy Crud' and then I would cry so I didn't do that too often.
Love her room. My granddaughter who is 7 loves it to. She lives with me also. Now I have to look at second hand shops to redo her room

Connie, I was so tickled that Marina is into them too. I'll ask Lis about the other band. Our kids should really talk. Lis thinks your girls are so cool.
Karen, I was glad to hear from you. How did you end up with your grandkid?
Susan, makes me wonder how long this band has been around. I'll have to actually listen to them sometime. Here, I hear them with Lis screaming and laughing on the phone and the tv blasting. Not condusive to good listening for me.
Thanks, Vanessa and Jane, the fur throw is a rug, but, she fucks up her floor with knee deep clothes, so I put it on the bed.
Pickles, I found their spots and continue to fight it. 409, spick and span and febreeze seem to work as long as you hit it as soon as you get a whiff. And the laundry, omg, they like to spray material the most. The washer runs constantly. Marvin Gaye is at the vets now. Chi is next. I believe all this fighting and spraying has awakened his inner tom. He's old enough for the surgery now. Jesus Christ, Marvin Gaye has to be the last one. I can't do any more. My body or bank account won't take the hit. I want a raccoon, they're easier.
I'll check out Nature's Miracle. They robot game can be beat. If you comment a few times, it lets you skip it.
Also what is the deal with Indie?? He's neutered, so to combat Marvin Gaye's spray, he just pisses on things. I am starting to hate them all and am so glad I decided not to carpet. It would have been a disaster.
What a great way to display that dress. What a fun room!
I was never really into BVB, but geez some of the people I know were. I like Gorillaz better. My sister likes twenty one pilots, but I have only heard one song so far. If you're ever looking for band stuff, go to Hot Topic, they've got a lot of BVB stuff as well as other bands. They can be a bit pricey but sometimes you can catch them on a sale. I'm sure Lis would love what they had.
These are some of the band Alissa likes. ...
Bring me the horizon.
Black Veil Brides.
Attila.

That's the list she sent me when i asked her what band merch she wanted for xmas. Lol
Mom,in my experience, anytime you add another cat to the mix (especially an unneutered tom cat) you are bound to have urine problems and fights. And I hate to say it, but it may not go away once he is neutered since he is an adultish cat now. Even young cats that are fixed can still spray/mark etc. :(
Casey, I am juggling their in and out times to combat the urge to spray. Indie is the biggest offender, Marvin Gaye is the smelliest. Chi Chi's nut sack has been tweaked by the two older ones and now he's starting with the pee, pretending to spray. He's going in for neutering soon. I'm hoping it will calm down soon. If not, fuck them all. Winter can't last forever. Spring is coming, boys, get your smelly asses out my house.
ps. the vet said Marvin Gaye is young. Maybe a year or two at most. Man, he's beat up..lol. I picked the ugliest one to keep. Maybe that's good though, there are some pretty ones people might pick at the animal shelter. MG wouldn't have been very adoptable, but, he is nice. When Indie doesn't fuck with him. Indie is number 1 and he has to be assured of that every day. When he's bad, he gets no neck time. It breaks his fiendish heart.
Oh and Lis got Pretty Reckless off MY list. Have I played my version of 'You Make Me Want To Die' for you? I like it a lot.
