i am sitting in the comfy green chair. my hair is brushed, so are my teeth. i’m wearing my ‘Marathon Shirt’ which i will talk about later. sitting next to me is Maxwell PufnStuf. he’s trying to crochet. we’re watching Dawson’s Creek. if i didn’t have to go to work in 24 minutes this would [...]
best day ever potential
hot diggity dawg
nobody told me that Dawson’s Creek was on TBS at 10 a.m. during the week, but i found out anyway! it was the one where Joey and Pacey do it for the first time, when they go on the Senior Ski Trip and Jen tries to make it with Jack and Dawson stays behind to [...]
pity, party of one
chances are you missed the social event of the deacade if you weren’t at the elegant supergenius headquarters in love prior lake, minnesota last night.
attendees to last night’s gala included madison, sheathed in a stripey orange and white number, paco in sophisticated shiny black, and the supergenius herself in an orange t-shirt and underpants.
the festivities [...]
like the sun my personality has been hidden behind clouds for most of the month of may. the insomnia has gotten the better part of me and i’m a washed out photo of my usually sunny self. i’ve turned to wilco & billy bragg for comfort. Mermaid Avenue is like my favorite sweater and a [...]
two years without TV
did you know that season 5 of dawson’s creek just came out on DVD [potential birthday gift alert: i own none of the seasons and would love to own all of the seasons]? it did! it has zoomed its way to the top of the netflix queue. i am giddy with anticipation.
awaiting the arrival of [...]
the weekend in quotes
“lord of the rings is cool, dawson’s creek is nerdy,” the TTHM.
“so you’re kind of a nerd, right?” a bowler at the tournament yesterday.
“why don’t you fucking marry her?” nine-months pregnant sister #3 to her husband after he complimented my new dye job.
“i bet it’s all my tips that paid for the hair do,” another [...]
perhaps this year will be better than the last
happy new year darling ones! if you’re like me you’re kinda glad that 2004 is over. it wasn’t a bad year really, just one of upheaval. i’m thinking that maybe i only dig odd-numbered years. 2005 promises to be the most challenging year of my life that i can remember in quite sometime. with the [...]
today i am a pale, washed out reflection of myself (an interesting aside, i just tried to spell that reflextion, that’s how out of it i am). it’s exhaustion though. i stayed up too late last night watching dawson’s creek and trying to talk my brain down from the ledge. see, it has gone [...]
that’s some kind of tired
the sheer panic induced by my short story due date has worn me so completely that i gave up the opportunity to swig beers with the one and only sweet rob of sweet rob fame. yeah, that’s some kind of tired.
i have spent the brain re-congealing time sitting in front of the TV with disc [...]
making it through
having an offsite meeting at 9 a.m. with all my creative cohorts is a sure way to make today a semi-decent day. it’s nice to just be away from the office where we can laugh and make fun of everyone and bitch openly about all the bad stuff. they remind me why i come to [...]
ever since i was a little kid, i’ve loved the very special episodes of my favorite tv shows. i’m weird like that. my favorite happy days ever? well, of course it’s the 2-parter where pinky tuscadero comes to town for the demolition derby, nearly cracks her skull open and then breaks fonzie’s heart.
favorite little house [...]
turning the corner
one could expect that if, after three days of pure burning rage and mean reds and muck, they started crying at the most tired cliche in television history, well they could expect that maybe they’ve turned the corner. this is a new low in sappiness even for me.
yes, that episode of dawson’s creek where the [...]
after that, there is no more
a calm sense of total apathy had washed over me, that was until i opened my diet coke with lime and instead of pouring it into my waiting parched mouth, i dumped it down the front of my shirt. boo!
i’m still raging today, in a calm barely concealed quiet kind of way. i think it’s [...]
222 minutes to sanity
i sobbed all the way home from work tonight. giant, breath-gulping, tear streaming sobs. the stress at work is only exacerbated by my lack of sleep, leaving me emotionally unequipped to deal with setbacks. and today, there was a giant setback. but i’ll recover, i always do. i’m nothing if not resilient. i just have [...]
feel sorry for me
i feel sorry for me. not only because there’s no more Dawson’s Creek in the abode for me to watch, but because i spent all day friday watching the Dawson’s Creek instead of working. this, of course, means that i have to do all the stuff i was supposed to do friday, tonight. and [...]
