Dreaming of Korea

I had a dream I went back to Korea for a photography job. I met up with a flickr friend of mine (who was writing a story for his newspaper) and we took a trip to back to Uijeongbu which is north of Seoul. We rode in a blue van. On the way to Uijeongbu, [...]


My Word Bank

I got an idea to create a word bank (look to the right under my profile pic) for my JaNoWriMo project from a newsletter I received from Writopia. During the next month, I will be posting a word count for the days I write. Hopefully I will resist the urge to blog and surf the [...]


JaNoWriMo

I only have two more days until I start writing my novel. I still haven’t outlined it. I’m screwed. This makes me wonder how professional writers keep turning out books year after year. Do they outline at all or do they just sit at the computer typing whatever story comes to mind? I’ve been meaning [...]


My Birthday

In 1 hour and 30 minutes, my birthday will be over. This morning I woke up and went to the grocery store to buy some stuff for the oyster dressing. I spend three hours making the dressing. After that, I did nothing exept watch tv. One of my favorite movies came on (Pleasantville). And that’s [...]


I’m Lazy Okay

I go through periods where I like to change up my normal routine. That’s why I neglected my blog for a week. I actually had some great stuff to blog about. Like last Thursday, I went out with Dilbert. It was an okay date. I managed to avoid choking on his tongue. Ha ha ha. [...]


Why Venting is Good for Ya

After having my bitch fit, I found that computer software. I’d tell you where I hid it, but of course the person that stole my laptop probably reads my blog. I had it bookmarked in MY FAVORITES on the Sony. Isn’t that peachy? Now, lets get to my lovelife. It’s nonexistent. I am, however, suppose [...]


It’s That Time of Year. Burglaries Are on the Rise

Someone that works in my department told me 11 houses in her neighborhood had been broken into in the last month, including hers. Boy am I paranoid. I’ve paranoid since January when it happened to me. I keep going over and over in my head how I could have done things differently. Like: I shouldn’t [...]


January Novel Writing Month (JaNoWriMo)

I don’t have much time before January. I still haven’t outlined my novel. I actually haven’t thought much about it. 50,000 words. I can do it. I just have to refrain from hopping on the internet and doing things that keep me from actually writing. Okay, I’m very intimidated about the 50,000 words. I can’t [...]


Harry Potter Saved Me from the Sounds a Tongue Thrusher

I absolutely hate being in the presence of a tongue thrusher when they are eating. They eat with their mouths open, which means that not only can you see their food, but their lip smacking is unbearably loud. My mother is a tongue thrusher. I will usually leave the room if there’s no background noise [...]


I Was Wrong

Nik didn’t win. Congrats Nicole. I knew Nicole won before they even said her name. She had that cover girl look. So did Nik, but Nicole’s look was a little more. I’ve been trying to post comments but I’m unable to. I hate that. When I click on post a comment, I should be able [...]


The Things Men Go Through For a Piece of Arse

I read an article in one of those stupid gossip magazines about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s trip to Washington D.C. There was nothing particularly interesting about it. I only read it because I was hoping to catch a glimpse of Brad toting one of the kids. He’s so hot when he has a child [...]


Bad Habits Revisited

I’ve started biting my nails again. Three of my ten nails are completely bitten down to the nail bed. I’ve managed to keep nibbling on just those three but it’s getting increasingly difficult to keep from biting the rest. It would have been a year since I quit biting my nails but the holidays are [...]


Movies

I went to see Rent and the new Harry Potter movie yesterday. I don’t know what to think about Rent. There was a whole lot of AIDS, intravenous drugs, and homosexual stuff. I wasn’t expecting it at all. I thought it was going to be a movie about people bitching about the cost of living. [...]
