Happy Friday the 13th!!! - Chainsaw Massacre
Yay, love this day! :-)
To celebrate, as a good little horror fan, I'm thinking of going to the movies for the new Chainsaw Massacre movie. Nope, I don't expect much from it, at all. It will probably be boring and quite lame. But horror movies are like sex and pizza: even when it's bad, it's still pretty good.
And talking about sex (hehehe!), the guy ( Read more... ) -
Job Interview and Beauty Pageants
Today, for the first time in a long while, I had a job interview. And I blew it.
I was feeling so goddamn insecure, and it showed. I babbled, I gave all the wrong answers, I said things without a drop of conviction. The guy asked questions about me and my experience, and I threw a bunch of nonsense at him, automatic responses that were vague and ( Read more... ) -
Head in the clouds, dead homeless people
Yesterday, walking on the street, I almost bumped into a blind man. I saw him and his cane one split second before we crashed. How ridiculous is that??? It wouldn't have surprised me if he had sensed me before I had seen him.
That tells you something about me.
About 2 weeks ago I missed something else in my distraction: a dead body. Hubby and I were ( Read more... ) -

I am sooooo looking forward to it!!! The reason is simple: The Devil's Rejects is nominee for a shitload of categories! :-) I'll be cheering like mad, and I want them to win it all! I sure as hell hope to see the entire cast present.
Having said that, whoever planned this award show wasn't ( Read more... ) -
I HATE looking for work!
I’ve worked as a temp for 3 1/2 years.
Let me translate that to English: I spent many weeks looking for work. Home alone, job-hunting online all day, feeling useless/shitty, mildly depressed, and broke. An interview here and there. Then a job! Yay! A few months later (sometimes as few as 2), laid off. They didn’t need a temp anymore - So-And-So ( Read more... ) -
Novel on hold
I think I'm gonna give my novel a rest.
Sure, I WANT to finish it. I've been working on it for so long, put so much energy into it, grew so emotionally attached to it. It hurts to postpone it yet again.
On the other hand, reminding myself every day that I have a novel to write, is a lot of pressure. One more big thing to worry about. But I cannot do ( Read more... ) -
Thinking up a novel
I'm writing a novel.
But what I should really be saying is, I'm thinking up a novel. Because that's all I do. Everyday I spend hours thinking about my characters. I pick one, go through her life story, imagine what she/he's feeling, wonder about her motivations, make her real. I keep changing the plot a million times. X was supposed to meet Y in a ( Read more... ) -
... but I won't say who!
This song is stuck in my head today! It's an old, catchy tune that's fun to sing along in the car. :-)
Love Somebody - Doris Day and Buddy Clark
DORIS: Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
Love somebody, yes, I do
I love somebody but I won't say who
Handsome face, he’s six feet tall
and his picture's on my wall
Love to be his baby ( Read more... ) -
Coffee talk
So I've become a coffee snob. Officially.
That is an odd thing to say, considering that I'm the type who buys a venti black and reheats it on the microwave every time it gets cold. (Fully aware that it's blasphemy!) I'm also the type who, until recently, thought that buying mild coffee was stupid, since bold was the same price - and didn't mild mean ( Read more... )
