I'm really not overjoyed by December 2009. It just feels like lots of little things have happened in the past month to make it seem awful...though that's not totally the case...but really, the weather's been horrific and Phil and I got into a big fat car accident last Monday, so the nice parts of the month (like buying our first tree and decorating ( Read more... )

I had an interesting moment the other night...a friend and I were conversing at the bar after trivia. I don't remember how the subject came up, but there was some mention that I was born in 1981. She said, "no shit! So was I! What month?" Turns out I'm a few months older than she is...she had thought I was at least three years younger than I ( Read more... )

Seems I can get funding through work to attend Costume College (a costumer conference) in 2010 -- I'm THRILLED!

It only happens every few months, but it's lovely to be trivia MVP...and validates that I no longer remember important things like math due to the rediculous amount of useless crap that lives in my brain.

Lately, I've just had this feeling like if my life were a TV show, all the writers up and left after winning their emmys and got replaced with dreadful hacks.  And I don't particularly like how they're writing my life.  Certainly it's not all bad, but their plot twists are getting very old, and they're doing obnoxious things with many of the ( Read more... )

Damn near everyone I know is/has gotten married or is spawning.  (The latest spawn tips the scales, it's truly everyone now, even if it's not.)  I don't know whether to feel really old or like there's something wrong with me.

There are some times when I feel like a big fat failure in everything.

I also need to remember that no one needs to know what I'm thinking.  Ever.  All it ever does is get me into shit.
