It is, I have always wanted to be a mom, but this caught me by surprise for sure.

.

Oh dear. Well, I’m sure you’ll do well. You’ve got a good head on your shoulders and that’s important.

[aislinmurdock]

whatifmercyjones​:

Its kinda scary too. So much is happening and its a lot. But yes I am excited.

.

I imagine so, it’s quite a big life step to be taking. 

[aislinmurdock]

thebenjyboy​:

Alright, now I’m way more interested in that. Why has yours flown?

.

Busy with work, for the most part. Also had a few personal projects I’ve been working on and I tend to lose time rather easily in my forge.

[aislinmurdock]

Nah, that sounds pretty close. You get moving feet involved, the core is no match for tripping. 

Sounds like a good opportunity for new memories to push out the old. I say go for it, it’s a good time.

It always looks so easy and then you try it and it’s like your entire body feels a bit like it’s on fire and you’re not sure why.

I feel like I want to do it just to see the devil on ice... Not saying it’ll end well, but I’ll get a good laugh out of it.

whatifmercyjones​:

I want to thank you guys for the love and support you all have given me! First I want to say I appreciate all of the love for both Christmas Deja Vu and my newest Thriller “Single Black Female” it was so fun getting to play such a complex character. Second, I would like to officially announce that I am expecting. Currently 14 weeks and can not wat to find out if I am having a little Diva or a Divo.

.

You must be excited, congrats!

I figured if I could keep myself upright on a skateboard, surely I could keep myself upright on ice skates. Yes, hindsight has kindly reminded me that the two things are not the same. 

It seems like a really fun time, tbh, if it hasn’t been lately, totally recommend it, and I hope you have better luck than I did. 

I feel like skateboarding is more core balance, whereas ice skating is like 90% in the ankles. Granted, never skateboarded before.

It was definitely before I got with my ex-fiancée. Should see if my teenager and/or boyfriend want to go.

Winters are definitely rough but to a certain extent I enjoy them. Especially snow on Christmas and ice skating outside. I just don’t enjoy the excess snow that comes with it all…or the below freezing temperatures. Coffee is a life saver for me. Especially when you are juggling a three year-old and rehearsals..and then performances. Not sure how I would function without it to be honest. Or Kurt. Coffee and Kurt keeping me alive and going.

.

You like the aesthetics but not the logistics. Which is fair. Coffee is love, coffee is life. My boyfriend actually knows that the best thing to bring me when he’s managed to upset me, is coffee, and usually also donuts. As much as I miss the stage, I don’t entirely miss the rehearsals. 

[aislinmurdock]

broadway-blaine​:

My kingdom for temperatures above 50! Yes, me too. I was really looking forward to it, and it was needed for the morning.

.

Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed living in NYC when I did, but I do not miss the winters. Love Cali, so much. Coffee is always important and any day that starts without, or starts with a loss of it, is always rougher.

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

You know I would love for them to be real. I may or may not have spoken with the director, but I don’t think he is up for that.

.

Private:

Yeah, he seems to be fond of drawing on the Lois and Clark parallels without actually being willing to commit to it, which pisses me off. 

[aislinmurdock]

hidden-artie-abrams​:

Sounds like fate brought the two of you together.  That they ended up with someone willing to fight their corner when they needed someone to do just that.  

.

That it did. And they mean everything to me.

[aislinmurdock]

hidden-artie-abrams​:

their social battery needed recharging huh?   What with all the travel , being swamped by large groups of your family then dealing with Wes’s family I can see how overwelming must have been for them. 

What is it they say absents  makes the heart grow fonder.   Do you know when you will get to see them next 

Oh yeah. My cousins are a lot, even for me, I cannot imagine they were any kind of easy for Ridley. They did get on pretty well with Mel, though, so that was good to see. Mel’s my favourite, but don’t tell Wes that.

I do not, no.

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

Ok, but that is different. Biting is different, let’s be honest. Everyone likes a little bit of biting.

.

Not everyone, I’ve definitely met a few people who don’t. And some of us like biting much more than others. Like, there is a very specific spot on my neck that being bitten there just does things.

[aislinmurdock]

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

Yes, I went to YALE, and I like to take some classes here and there. But what I mean is, not even needs to have classes to actually be a good actor. And sometimes, some of the ‘actors’ that go to acting school end up not even being good actors. It all depends on your natural talent, I guess?  And your hard work, of course. Wait, for real? You want to take a break? You want to just be a mum?

.

Talent and hard work pay off better than classes in a lot of ways, at least it did for me. But, when you’re honing your skills from the time you’re a child through until now, it’s rather easy to say that.

Yeah, I do. That was always my plan, really. Get to a point in life where I could just be a mum for a while. I think that time is coming up and I certainly plan on taking it.

[aislinmurdock]

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

It was never a problem to me. But that was before I married Rachel, and before Moriah, and before Lady… Before, things were so easy. Now, it’s so hard to be away, you know? Of course you had your reasons. If we are worried, it means something is not “right”, even if it’s only in our head, you know? But, I am so glad you were able to figure things right, and prove that you can overcome those worries. Never time, you will look back and realize that no need to be worried. At all.

.

That does tend be how growing up works. You find people and things that you don’t want to leave, but can’t take with you either. My pets are a bit like that, as is Ridley, guess that’s part of why I’m considering taking a break here soon.

Yeah, overall, it ended up being a really good trip, even with all my worries, which is what matters.

[aislinmurdock]

hidden-artie-abrams​:

Daym , I;ll just have to read the unauthorised versions then.  But that’s cause I love reading biographies .  The unauthorised ones are great because it’s fun trying to work out whats accurate and what’s just made up bullshit to make it sell better.  So many of my friends have become successful that i’m early looking forward to theirs so i can go nope that didn’t happen.  

.

If such exist I’m going to have a field day with them, I’m sure. If the rumours of my life while not on social media are anything to go by, the internet thinks I’m far more an interesting person than I actually am.

[aislinmurdock]

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

I had no idea Wes even had siblings. Those are news to me. But if they are anything like him… I swear, it’s a terrible vision. haha Good luck with that family, Aislin! You may need it!

.

Yep, the twins, and he also has a younger sister, Mel, who is an utter sweetheart. Of all his siblings, I definitely missed Mel the most. No, the twins are far worse, in terms of causing chaos, though he does tend to stoop to their level every now and again. Which is amusing to me. I got my revenge and it was even more delightful than I expected it to be.

[aislinmurdock]

the-one-photographer-quinn​:

Exactly, back then you were only worried about your career. It makes sense. Look at me, as soon as I finished high school, I was traveling the world, I was going here and there. I was at my dream college… But now, yes, I do still feel the need to travel. But without my family? I don’t know, feels… Weird, you know? Thank you, for saying that I have a solid career. I do my best to have it. And I also have other small businesses, as you know, my photography studio, and stuff. And I direct, and I do photoshoots, and direct, and I do so many things other than acting. But, as you said, I also have a family, and I do need to spend more time with them. I feel like I am not spending enough time. I mean, I got my dream house, I draw it, I got it, but I think my wife was the first to even walk in it. And for sure, is the one who spends more time here! I have to admit, it breaks my heart when I hear Moriah crying for me. That’s why I always leave in the middle of the night, when they are asleep. Somehow, it hurts “less”, at least for them. I am 100% sure my wife would tell me to take the job. It’s Rachel Berry that we are talking about!

.

You’re at a really important place in life, that line between career and family and if your heart says family, don’t dismiss that. Are you sure, though? Because, I can’t imagine you’re the only one who doesn’t like you being around. And as much as Rachel is a career driven woman, being apart from the person you love can be really hard.
