December 2009
Having a full blown hands-and-knees scrubdown in the bathroom today.
Listening to Jack Johnson. Lame I know. But it reminds me of summer in Cape Cod-warm weather, frozen drinks, healthy eating and outdoor showers. Quit judging.
I’m in need of catharsis.
Or I’m just avoiding what I actually should be doing. Cleaning is my method of procrastination.
Or napping.
Hmmm…that...
So Tomorrow
Rosie and I take our first road trip. Well, she’s been in a car twice before, and doesn’t seem to enjoy it much.
I realize now it was stupid to exchange the SUV for a sedan. I hope the crate fits in the backseat.
I’m a bad planner.
Also, it would have been nice to have another human in the car.
That said, I’m pretty excited about the drive with my dawgie!
wtf?
I don’t know how to reblog with the fancy indents but whatever. Most movies ‘made for women’ are not what I want to see. Whatever that new Streep/Baldwin flick is holds no interest for me. AND I FREAKING LOVE THEM BOTH!!! What the hell?
If I have to watch a rom-com, where did that chick who wrote The Sweetest Thing go? Ah right. Nancy, stop writing for South Park and do your own...
It's almost Christmas!
This year flew by!
Everybody’s looking forward to the end of 2009. Myself included. It’s been a pretty rough year.
But there were many great things too.
1. The formation of my improv team, and the subsequent public performances.
2. Getting the balls to attempt stand-up. They may have been tequila balls, but they were balls nonetheless.
3. Surfing!
4. Paris, Vancouver Island, Seattle, all the...
Repress much?
Sitting at my desk, I almost cried reading about Susan Boyle being named one of People’s most charismatic celebrities of 2009. I vaguely know who she is, never seen her perform or anything. Pretty bizarre that I would give a crap.
Oh right. I don’t.
I sat here, thinking “What the hell?! I can’t have pms!”
Then I remembered my friend had to put her 5 year old cat to...
Family Feud
I used to get upset watching this with my mom because I rarely had an answer that was even on the board.
It just occurred to me, right now, that it’s a show that celebrates conformity.
THINK LIKE EVERYONE ELSE AND YOU WIN!!! BE AVERAGE!!! SIEG HEIL!!!
OK.
I’m just a sore loser.
I am a huge Julianne Moore fan, but her ‘Boston’ accent on 30 Rock last week made me want to shove an ice pick into my temple. Or hers.
12 Days of Christmas
We just recieved a holiday gift set. There are 12 boxes, each containing a different treat.
Reminds me of the one we got at the first fashion job I had. I came in one morning hungover and ate a half block of cheese, finishing it. I didn’t think anyone would notice.
Next thing I know, I heard the Production Whore screaming about how she wanted cheese for her breakfast. How could someone...
Every morning
I pass the same people on my way to the subway. The Asian dudes and I say ‘hello’ to each other. The crossing guards. The fancy old man with the Westie. There are two little girls I always pass as well.
One of them particularly makes my day. She has a huge afro in which she wears a red bow. Each morning she wears something funkier. I want to take her picture daily, but am afraid of...
The Boston accent comes in handy for two things.
Sounding bad-ass or sounding stupid.
Or stupidly bad ass.
Either way, it worked on the hippie playing jazz trumpet outside my window at some crazy hour last night.
NEVER wake Grandma up. You kids get off my lawn.
This morning
I woke up with some clarity. It’s time to back off the negative thinking and work harder. Improv really doles out the life lessons. Don’t think. Just do.
There’d be no such thing as writer’s block if you just sat and wrote, no matter what it was. You’d surely come up with something workable, even from stream of consciousness writing.
Same thing with art. Instead of...
Yes, I am actually this lame.
I spent an evening youtubing live performances of bands of my youth.
Music used to be my life. Maybe it’s because I used to feel more, or maybe because music made me feel more.
I don’t listen to (or like) a lot of new music. Most likely because I’m too lazy to look for things I can relate to.
I also watched the Doors, which was cool to see, but didn’t resonate. I was...
2 things
1. I’m so over any blog that starts with Fuck Yeah. Can we get a little more creative? Jeez.
2. Dita Von Teese makes me want to make more effort with my appearance every day. Want to, but don’t.
