She sucked down a couple of cigarettes for lunch before hurrying back inside. The conference room had a large, round, dark, polished table like any other, surrounded by black leather swivel chairs, most of which were occupied, some empty, but she was not the last into the room ( Read more... )

I really don't like the holidays. I haven't been able to really get into the spirit of things since I was eight or nine. Being empathic doesn't help because everyone is panicking and all the fake love and affection going around from strangers is grating. It's Christmas time! I should be nice to you! Add to that that there is nothing to listen to on ( Read more... )

I'm going to start this by saying, yes I have issues that I am dealing with. And yes, I love that people enjoy the holidays. I think it's fantastic that people have specific times that they just decide to schedule as "holiday".

I don't ever really remember liking the holidays. I mean, sure, when I was little I liked Christmas, but what little kid ( Read more... )

Well... I don't know. A lot has happened in the two months that I stopped participating in LiveJournal, but it seems pretty insignificant. Plus, I don't remember it ( Read more... )

I don't know why, but on occasion I can come out with a brilliant piece of prose, and yet poetry just doesn't come for me. I have some ideas, and on occasion I get a couple of lines, which I promptly forget. I'd love to learn the skill, and I'm working on it somewhat. Reading the stuff helps.

The door slammed open, and Brian stormed in, bringing a cold, wet, winter breeze with him. He stomped the rain off his boots, muttering in what sounded like German under his breath. The door banged closed, and the room started to heat again. He threw a stack of envelopes on the table, slightly damp from the trip, and shrugged out of his long ( Read more... )

Can breathing commence now?

My day:

I woke up at 6:40, to leave around 7, getting to school half an hour later, I found all of my classes and putzed around until 8, when I went to sit in my first class, Physics for non-majors. I don't know. I think I’ll like my teacher. She is from Austria and has a heavy accent, so that might be a problem, but I ( Read more... )

This happened today when I was trying to get food before going home after work, 'cause I was starving to death.

Dante comes past where I'm waiting at a slow register because customers get served first. I ask him to type in some food. So, as I order, he's making faces. Dante is always full of shit, and no one ever takes him seriously. He asks Domingo ( Read more... )
