Entries from November 2007

Tomorrow is a fresh start

I am sad to report that tensions have increased in the great Sister Club War of 2007. We were heading towards a detente but tempers have flared and Christmas is once again in jeopardy.
After I got the phonecall from the angry sister, I curled up in the middle of my bed and was all [...]

I’m sorry, what was I saying?

The worst part about finding out that I’m losing my job in a few months is that it has caused my ADD to go into hyperdrive. I have to keep apologizing to people while I’m speaking with them because I lose my train of thought mid-sentence. I’m lucky that the only people I’ve spoken with [...]

And now this happened

Remember how almost exactly one month ago I got a raise and promotion? Guess who got laid off today? It’s me! It’s me!

Supergenius vs. the giggling Googlers

So Princess Jaycie’s friends have discovered the magic of Google and how you can type in your friends’ names and find out stuff about them. They have also discovered that when you type in Jaycie and press enter you can get to iwilldare.com in no time flat. Also, Jaycie’s Aunt Jodi, she swears.
According to Sister [...]

If you lived in my head this is what you would hear

Well I married my dreamgirl
I married my dreamgirl
But she didn’t tell me her credit was bad
So now instead of living in a pleasant suburb
We’re living in the basement at her mom and dad’s
No we can’t get a loan for a respectable home
Just because my girl defaulted on some old credit cards
If we had gone to [...]

For Jags

Jags, you’ll be surprised that Neil Young didn’t even make the list of the 16 ugliest men in Rock and Roll. I am disappointed.

Notes from a Sunday

I worked on the new look for iwilldare.com until roughly 5 a.m. this morning. I worked on it for so long that I managed to listen to most of an America’s Next Top Model marathon and many many episodes of the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. When Go Diego Go came on, I knew it [...]

Redecorating

Instead of thinking or writing or napping or any of that fun stuff, I redesigned. Things might be broken.

Cheater, cheater pumpkin eater

Crap Nablo, I am cheating again. When your brain has turned to mush because you’ve napped too much and watched too much bad TV it’s hard to remember what day it is and whether or not you’ve posted something.
I was gonna write about books today but then I decided my time was much better [...]

That’s me, I guess

Over dinner, Mom was talking about a character on “Criminal Minds” that she loved because the character reminded her of me. Sister #2 or #3 asked Mom why, “because she’s funny and good with computers.”

A special Thanksgiving episode of Answering the Googlers Questions

On this day of thanks, I want to give back to the community. Here, I have answered some of the Googler’s questions to the best of my ability.
What’s the illusion song from South Park Guitar Hero?
Carry on My Wayward Son by Kansas
Why does a person tell you that they need a break and then later [...]

Sometimes you have to dig deep

Let’s see. No parents, no Sister #3 and her family, no Chromey v Chromey. . . it’s hard to find reason to give thanks.
Even though they are feuding, all my family members are alive and breathing, so for that I am thankful. I woke up this morning singing “I Just Want the Girl [...]

I ain’t got much

I don’t have much to say today. I’m kind of tired and cranky. The only thing I want to do is get back to reading My Date with Satan not only because I am enjoying it, but it is giving me ideas and with my next short story due in exactly seven days I need [...]

Maybe I need two 2008 calendars

I blame part of the crappiness that has been 2007 on the shitty calendar I had to mark the year. So to make up for lost time, so to speak, I got myself a beautiful Robert Mapplethorpe 2008 calendar. Imagine my dismay when I see this awesome Twin Cities Cityscape calendar by Adam Turman on [...]

A rejection makes it official

Months and months ago Peabo teased me that I couldn’t call myself a writer until I got my first rejection letter from a literary mag that I had submitted a story to. I think I got a brief reprieve after being named a finalist for The Loft’s Mentor Series, but I still had to submit [...]
