Well it's come that time of season for me to review the finale of Heroes.

Below the cut in case anyone cares about spoilers

( welcome to the carnival )

IT'S SNOWING!

I'm so glad to be able to make multiple posts about snow this year. 8^)

Well my unhappiness has slowly been eating away at me like acid on lime stone, but I'm trying to prevail. Writting is extremely hard at this time and that is killing me as well, but there is a bit of light at the end of the so called tunnel; I'm trying to focus my energies on keeping the kitchen clean (which is not as hard as some people would think that it is) and towards crafts in attempt to make a few extra bucks while I look for a job. (Orange County School system can on rotten green beans until the Redskins win another Superbowl)--I'll be working on arm warmers (mostly for fashion), coin purses and aprons; I figure it's going to be getting warm soon, so not too many people will want to buy scarves.

It's such a nice day out today; a little warm and nice and breezey. Perfect spring weather, hopefully it'll be that way when spring rolls around instead of automatic summer, but who knows with Virginia weather.


I got my mouse out today and she ran around in a ball. I think she was happy because she loves the wheel so much that in the ball she actually gets to go places. She and Nemo were sort of playing.

Well off to go through my fabric box, and maybe through some old t-shirts or whatever. Any one want to donate said old t-shirts or jeans?

The Cowboys are playing the Eagles today. It is the one and only time I will wish luck to the Cowboys. I hope they demolish the Eagles. The Eagles can suck it. Suck it dry.

It snowed! It actually snowed here in Richmond/Virginia. It's very deep and we're trapped in the apartment, it's awesome!

Found the trailer for Iron Man 2.

It looks kick ass!

Check it out, I demand it.

ah tis the season. I all ready decorated at my parent's house and just decorated my apartment while listening to a Christmas mix on my playlist.com (which is awesome btw). I still have a few more thins to put up, but I need to buy some thumb tacks first.

Happy Chriswanakahdanza everyone!

James got me the Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks, which lets face, with my increasing fear and paranoia of the zombie invasion, I so desperately need. While I enjoy this book, it is taking me a while to get through it. It's a simple read and very entertaining, but, I keep scaring myself with it. I can't read it while I'm alone, or at night, or while I'm home alone at night. A novel hasn't had that effect on me in quite some time.

But it will come in great handy when the zombies do indeed, finally come.

today's going to be a bad day, I can tell. :(

The Top Eight Saddest Television Moments according to me.

Here is a list (in order) of my eight saddest moments in television. Why eight, because that's all I could think of right now.

( read if you want meh )

I don't do this that often, but I feel the need to have commentary on the latest episode of heroes, even though no one probably cares, but just in case, I do have a cut.

( spoilers )

:squee:

I'M DONE!

tee words cannot express how happy I actually am. I've completed my novel!/novel for NaNo.

It is 53,717 words. :tee:

I only wish I had an icon that can express how excited/happy/accomplished I am.

Wesley reaches across the table and touches her free hand. “Tell me what you’ve been working on.”

She sips her tea. A smile is small on her lips. “All right,” she says. “It’s about girl who meets a boy that she loves in the rain.”

quick announcement:

43,023 words!

:squee:

:D

All right here's my latest update for NaNo, I'm quite proud of it actually.

excerpt:

Clarissa Lucas sits at her desk, old and heavy, made from a very rare kind of wood. A pen in hand and paper laid out in front of her she thinks on the next chapter of her novel. She is unsure of where the story is to go next. Does her heroin buy flowers? Or does she decide to go and get the milk and bread for the children? Clarissa has no idea. She throws her pen down in discontent. It hits the desk then rolls to the floor. It is 1958.

Terrible times are upon her, she feels it in her bones and in the air. It is as if the electricity is shocking her as she moves; she is shocked and burned. The blood and nerves under her skin festers. The present feeling reminds her of the first breakdown she had, fifteen years ago.

She fumbles with an open back of cigarettes, finding half a one. She pulls it out and lights it, blowing the smoke up into the air.

Well I'm participating in NaNoWriMo this year and have decided to do some semi-updates every now and then.


Synopsis: Leaving Trains

A story of three different women that overlaping during the course of thirty years; The final days of famed writer Clarissa Lucas, her daughter Adeline who struggles daily with her own writing, and a lonely girl named Violet who has been committed to a mental facility in the 1950s.

Excerpt:

Do I look any older? She wonders as she gazes into the mirror of the vanity. Made of thick wood, an old antique of her mother’s, the great Clarissa Lucas, and Adeline pictures Clarissa looking into the exact same mirror at the exact same moment each day with the exact same question: do I look any older? The answer is, as always, yes. One is always older than the day before, but it’s the little things that one picks up over time that makes one come to the conclusion: Yes, I do indeed look older.

Well I had to resign at my job, because well, they made me. They felt that I wasn't doing my job right, which is a lie. So fuck life hard core. And fuck them as well.

The kids at my work sometimes make it really really hard for me to enjoy it at all. The money is good, the benefits are great, but I don't have any work friends (everyone is nice, but still) and I don't have time to write.

being sick sucks.

yay we have internet back in my apartment, and TV!

Today at work my kid was out so I made photocopies all day and read a book, it was awesome.

Think I've actually got a shot at NaNoWriMo this year. They say you can work on a story that has an outline as long as nothing's been written yet, so I may try this one idea I've got.

DAWN --- I hope you got my comment about the wedding invite.

and I wanted to try my new icon. I heart you Dr. Sheldon Cooper. :D

Well I haven 't been on here in a while; first of all since James and I moved, we didn't have internet and around that time my job ended at CHEC so I didn't have access, but that's neither here nor there. Shortly before my said job at CHEC ended I recieved an offer to be a sign language assistant at Orange Elementary School in Orange County. So yay new job right?! lol. It's salary with beniefits and it's more money than I've ever made before.

It's been a little hectic, a little tough, but I'll stick it out the best I can.

Still trying to write, but I don't find much time anymore.

Right now I'm on the lap top at my parents with the wireless, it's pretty nifty.

I miss James and Nemo.
