The last six years have been somewhat of a rollercoaster ride. Some of it has been fun. Some of it has been horrendous and even depressing. I discovered things about myself as well as losing myself in the torrent. I'm going to be 32 in January. I'm still getting used to being in this particular decade. My 20s was a matter of experimenting, living ( Read more... )

Damn. It's been a long time since I written anything on here. I mainly stopped due to lack of internet access for several months ( Read more... )

So much has been going on and I’ve just been too tired and lazy to write. I keep thinking up lines, sentences and scenes in my head, but none of it has reached the printed page until now ( Read more... )

A friend of a friend is helping me with getting a better job. I may be able to get something that pays 16 dollars an hour (if not more) and possibly with benefits. I completely revamped my resume and mailed it to her a few days ago. I really need this to happen because less stress and more money would help with a lot of things right now ( Read more... )

I woke up feeling wonderful today. I was pain free and happy to stretch out with the sun shining through my window. It felt like a Saturday morning back when I was younger and eager to watch hours of Saturday morning cartoons. That was back when the weekends meant home cooked breakfast: sausages, grits and biscuits dipped in butter and syryp. Oh ( Read more... )

Working at this Writer's Conference a few weeks ago reminded me of something. It's really f*cking hard to sell books these days. I had to stop people in their tracks and almost literally tie them down or block them from moving in order to get them to buy a book. Too many people are into this whole books on tape thing and never actually read ( Read more... )

Is it just me or is everything starting to turn into a cross between SoHo and Times Square? Take St. Marks Place for instance. I miss that raw, grungy atmospehere, the gutter puns, cube kids and heroin addicts twitching next to me...etc. All my favorite stores have long gone out of business because of high rents and mysterious fires. Now it's ( Read more... )

I just finished submitting an application to Walgreen’s about an hour ago. I could easily get some overnight shifts and even work right after getting out of Halloween Adventure. I know it sounds crazy, but I could really use the money. The last few months have been my poorest. I’ve barely had any food in my house for the last few weeks and I’ve ( Read more... )

Actually, I just want new sheets or the option/opportunity to get/afford new sheets. Things have been hectic since my wallet was stolen at the end of January. I basically had no money and had to borrow money to replacements for my state id and other things. It's been a month and I still have yet to receive my id and debit card because they keep ( Read more... )

I've been feeling really depressed and lost lately. I don't know what it is. My room is so beautiful and feels so wonderful that it makes me cry. Everything is perfect. It;s the space I always wanted. My room feels complete and then I start wondering. Why couldn't I have this years ago? Or did I have to go through all these hard years to ( Read more... )
