For "_allecto_" because you don't have the ovaries to let me print it on your page....
So, intrigued by my dear Casi's ire at the feminist "Firefly" rant I decided that I would leave a comment for the idiot who wrote it. But, she has it set up so that only friends can reply, because she is too chicken shit to accept real criticism. So, for your reading pleasure, please find the comment posted here. So, _allecto_, this is for you ( Read more... ) -
Who?
Okay....I know that I should know this. But who and what does Damien Rice sound like. All you people seem to be addressing him this morning. I feel out of the loop. More on everything later ( Read more... ) -
Who says that anyway?
So i was a good girl and did a shit-ton of GRE exercises yesterday, and I have just one thing to say: Why don't any of the GRE vocabulary words have anything to do with reality? Seriously, i have a pretty good vocabulary and i take time to use it, even at the peon serving jobs that I have, so why haven't I heard of most of those words. They are ( Read more... ) -
Caution: Major Cat Content
Does anyone know the best way to assuage a male-cat-dominance battle in ones home? My newer cat has decided that he wants to be the alpha male, and is asserting his power by monopolizing the food bowl. This means that Frankie has turned into an official tub o' goo, and Brak, who has always been way too fat, is now almost underweight, and seems ( Read more... ) -
And again, it gets worse.
I just got off the phone with the IRS, to discover two things: Yes they can take back taxes that I owe out of my refund for this year with no outrageous fees. And two: the cars that i donated to charity after they were totaled are worth so little that I cannot get any money back for them. So they were both a total loss. $3000 at least down the ( Read more... ) -
Rejected
I just received my rejection email from UC Santa Cruz. I did not get into graduate school. I do not know if it was because they could not take any photographers, or if it was because there was a photographer better than me. All i know is that I lost everything for no good reason, because I work hard at a job that I hate, I still have no money, ( Read more... ) -
Not quite finished the the crap just yet
What a weekend. I had been looking forward to the Friedlander show. i was going to get an opportunity to be an adult, interested in art, and it was one of my favorite photographers. So on Friday i spent the day preparing, cooking a wonderful spanikopita (the best I have ever made) and some baba ghanous (i think the spelling is correct). I got ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Tomorrow I finally get to spend some time doing something for me. Tomorrow night I have tickets to the member's only private opening of the Lee Friedlander restrospective at the SFMoMA. I have not been so goddam excited about going into the city for a long time. More than ever I really need to be reminded that there are enjoyable things in this ( Read more... ) -
How to benefit from the irresponsibility of others.
Well i was so excited to have two days off in a row, and then as I was in the middle of a baking project the phone rang and i found out that the new woman at work, the one who means really well, but is a little bit dumb, and slow-moving, didn't show up. no call, no nothing. Now this was a common practice for the young folks in Virginia, but this ( Read more... ) -
Light at the End of the Tunnel
Is it, is that light I see? I finally got a clear answer from my old manager about when I can expect a letter of recommendation with regards to getting a new job. Which is fast becoming imperative, but now that I have paid for my car and all its accessories, it looks like I am going to be able to pay rent sometime this week, and get my tax return ( Read more... )
