Technicolor Fairytale

It’s 5pm on a Friday. I’m young and single. All I want to do right now is go home and go to bed.

So, last year I signed up for NaBloPoMo because I hoped it would help me get into the habit of posting more often. It worked, to a point, except that for all of 2007 I’ve been doing a 365 on flickr and that’s sort of killed my posting here. So, let’s try again, shall we?

Every time I write the date today (which, as a legal secretary I do a lot because I take a *lot* of messages) I am reminded that it’s Misha’s birthday. It’s funny because I probably haven’t seen him in at least 5 years. We were in a show together, during which he hooked up with […]

**UPDATE** I am very, very sad to say that Aodin R. Hurd was stillborn at 4:02 a.m. on October 7, 2007. He weighed 9.6 ounces, and to all present, he was perfect. Please keep his parents and family members in your thoughts and prayers. I recently made a new bloggy friend- Heather, of Yummy Sushi […]

Day 271: Farewell Dennis Originally uploaded by twitterpatedme Day 271: Farewell Dennis I got Dennis when I was 8 years old, named him after my best friend (at the time)’s dad. He was once fluffy and plump, but I slept with/on him for long enough that he went a bit squashy. He got put into […]

Yesterday I was sitting in the den attempting to read my book for book club tonight (I say attempting because the author’s prosaic style has been hard for me), when there was a knock at the door. I was taken aback by two things- first, it was the *back* door, but last night was neither […]

These questions are from Brad. He likes to give me at least one really hard question, but it’s good. Makes me think. 1. You’re at a party and a company president mentions that they need someone just like you at their very lucrative and stable company. They want to DOUBLE your current salary. The only […]

I love the interview meme because it actually gives me something to post about? Wanna play? Leave me 5 questions in the comments and I’ll answer them and respond with 5 questions of my own. These are from Caryn: Apparently she didn’t like my first attempt, so she gave me follow up questions. 1) What […]

For those keeping score, the cat is still not quite right. He does seem to be improving slowly though, which is a great relief to me- and most likely to him as well. He’s still living in my bathroom (which is larger than most) because I don’t trust him yet not to pee on stuff […]

So, the damn cat is still sick, and I think he just might kill me. I feel bad calling him “the damn cat” but dude. I miss my cat. My cat purrs when I pet him, sleeps in my bed at night, and makes me smile. Right now he’s sulky because he doesn’t feel well, […]
