Josh Runs Into Oprah & I Run From Reality...
Today, I'm not going to whine about my life. I'm not going to agonize over the exhausting job or the the paycheck that won't strech far enough or the stupid chronic health thing that won't leave me alone. I'm taking a day off from worrying about the future. Today, I'm going to talk about Drake & Josh--and specifically, the episode Josh Runs Into ( Read more... ) -
That's Me in the Corner...
I notice that LJ has started notating the last time you post to your journal. This makes me paranoid. Would they dump me out if I don't keep this dreay missive updated? Oh dear. So...a few days from now (I hope), I will return to this journal with *something* to expound on/rant about/gush over/babble mindlessly on. Stay tuned ( Read more... ) -
42 Minutes of Awesome - "Birthmarks"
Okay, originally I was coming on here to vent about the fact that some blithering idiot broke both the cars windows last night (or this morning) and that I've got to shell out money I can't afford to get mine repaired... and I'd planned to self-pity a bit about the fact that I've worked the new job for a month but only got two weeks pay because * ( Read more... ) -
Ring, Ring, Telephone, Ring...
I feel like I'm under house arrest. The library told me that I should receive a call about the job by Friday if my tests were okay...so I've been stuck here in the house within earshot of the telephone, waiting for the magical ring that has yet to come. A person can only find so much to do without going any further than their front porch mailbox ( Read more... ) -
Just Touching Base...or Something Like That...
A few random thoughts on Drake & Josh. (Can I help it if these things pop up unannouced while I'm minding my own business doing other things?
I never knew yakitori was an actual food. I always assumed Drake got the name from a comic book or something...duh. But what does a Southern know about skewered grilled meat with soy sauce?
Drake grabbed the ( Read more... ) -
The Dark Side and The Small Glimmer of Light
I never thought I'd be quoting Springsteen or Nirvana...but there are two songs that keep circling in my head. "I'm just tired and bored with myself....I need just a little help..." "I feel stupid and contageous." Yeah, that's me. The whole never-ending, almost five month fruitless slog to find a job has finally gotten to me. When you have to ( Read more... ) -
Stumbles back in to post again...
I think the idea of these journals is to use them on a regular basis to dump feelings and get your mental house in order...but I tend to ignore that and just hold it all in. Today, I will drop in and be hysterical for a few minutes. I have a job interview tomorrow. It will be my first interview in nearly 20 years...I am so freaking nervous that ( Read more... ) -
What a year...
Boy, this journal is just sparkling with upbeatness! I'm here to report that last week I ( and four other coworkers) were informed that they were moving all the clerical work to Wisconsin, and hey--we're all going to be unemployed as of February 14th next year! (Happy early birthday to me, eh?) I have no idea what I'm going to do...after I panic ( Read more... ) -
Still Alive Out Here
Wow...really don't post here much, do I? While some people have lives as exciting as roller coasters, mine is more of a bumper car affair. What's happened in two years ( Read more... ) -
Just A Test, Really...
I set up this journal ages ago, and have yet to make use of it. This is merely a test to see if I have the slightest inkling as to how to post to the little darlin'. I'm rather skeptical as to whether or not I'll actually put anything personal here. Not that my life is so exciting that people will be stealing my precious sentences and running to ( Read more... )
