Chicka Chicka Yeah


I cannot wait until I get a break from everything.  Sofie has probably only seen me 4 days this whole week.  I've been in and out of the house and with work going the way it has, I proabably will be the same way until the end of this month.  It's killing me.

So I think Sofie realizes that I'm not home and knows that I'm neglecting her.  The other day she wouldn't come to bed with me and she went to lay with my mom.

Anyway, I saw Yes Man and The Spirit.  Yes Man was funny.  I really thought it was going to be horrible because like alot of people I thought it was going to be Liar Liar all over again.  It wasn't, mostly cause it wasn't like he HAD to say yes, it was just that he was challenged to say yest to anything that came along.  HILARITY ENSUES.  It was boring in some parts but I still liked it.  I might buy the dvd.

Then theres The Spirit.  (insert sigh)

You know I really wanted this movie to be awesome because its by Frank Miller but it really really REALLY wasn't.  I mean it had its moments and the idea was great the way it was filmed was awesome but the whole story line just left me confused.  Not only that but the funny parts were mostly parts that made me go "ha" and thats all.  I kinda wish I didn't waste my time when I couldve just waited for the bootleg dvd (i wouldnt even pay for a real dvd).

Stabby stab stab

I've been super busy lately.  I mean I haven't been on here in like a week.  I've been working almost everyday and I'm super exhausted.  Sofie's been wondering where I've been and I think she knows something's coming up.  There's a big empty space where her new house is going to go and she keeps wandering over there and sniffing like "hey mom, whats going here?"

So for the first time, I budgeted my paycheck and I actually saved enough to buy gifts and still not be poor by the next pay day.  I'm thinking of buying a new wardrobe and throwing out my crappy clothes.  Which pretty much means...all of my clothes.  I wish I was cool, then I could buy cool clothes and look cool and be like "oh it wasn't that hard to look cool" and not like hit my head on something and totally negate the cool factor.  

Anyway, I'm saving up money for emergencies and for a new wardrobe so I have to keep  slapping myself on the hand when I try to buy things I really don't need.   It's nice not to have to worry if I have enough money for gas.  Now I know how the middle class folks feel.

Well, early Merry Christmas!

Happiness Is A Warm Gun

Oh my god...I wish I could sleep all day.  I swear I go to work tired, come home tired, wake up tired.  I cannot stand that I never sleep enough even though I sleep 8 hours every night.

I didn't take Sofie to work today.  I felt really bad and she kinda took it out on me by peeing on the floor.  Not a little like usual when she can't hold it but like a puddle.  I mean it looked like the fridge was leaking.  I'll take her tomorrow.  There shouldn't be too much to do.  It will probably be pretty boring since its just before the holidays.

Well, I'm starting to love/hate my story.  I'm writing a story having to do with zombies or something like it and the aftermath of it all.  I really dug it at first but then I really started to despise the whole plot and the dialogue between the characters.  Not only that but my wording and the writing was just bugging the crap out of me.  I start to wonder why the heck I think I can be a writer cause I just hate the way I write.  But then I was writing more today and I started to smooth out alot of the kinks and the plotline worked out a little better so I might not hate it so much.

One thing that bugs me about tv is when shows take a hiatus for the holidays.  One of which is Fringe.  I love that show (my favorite person ever is Walter Bishop) but I hate that now I'm stuck having to watch re-runs every Tuesday instead of a new episode.  Now I'm trying to figure out how to replace that hour of television with some other show.  I can understand when the season is over but not when shows take a break in the middle of the season.

I'm done ranting.

Pessimistically Optimistic


My first try at baguettes!  Ok ok, they aren't as long and no they aren't perfect but I am so so proud :D.

I've been major busy for the past few weeks.  Sofie had to go to the vet today because she was having stomach problems and now she's on a special diet.  No more people food for her.  I've run out of money in less than a week from my pay day and I should've known because my horoscope told me so on Sunday.  It said something like "all your hard work will disappear because you spend as soon as you get".  True true.  I got Guitar Hero and I advance ordered the Dark Knight because...of course, I am a huge nerd.  

I took Sofie to work the other day so she could have fun with the other dogs.  Really she had fun by herself with all the toys but she made a new friend...a shorkie (shih tzu/yorkie) named Brandi.  I hope I can take her back soon.  But I don't work as much this week because there's not much to do anyway.

I made Sofie one of those Paw Print stockings instead of buying one cause I'm poor and next Monday I was supposed to take Sofie to see Santa at the mall but now I don't think I have enough money to buy pictures.  I might just take pictures myself with her in a cute holiday outfit and send those out as Christmas cards.  

I hate not having money. :(

I Don't Have Jedi Mind Powers

My day off! Wooo Hooo!

I've cleaned my room, given Sofie a bath, sent out my transcript request and went to the library and got a stack of books cause I'm a huge dorkus.

I just wanted to express my hatred for Tyra Banks.  She's a complete idiot.  I don't understand why she acts like shes Oprah.  Shes not ok.  She's very far from it.  And then when she says stuff that she thinks is insightful it just comes out completely self-centered and laughable.

Anyway, and now for something completely different.  Unlike my writing abilities, I am a terrible speaker.  Not as in public speaking but speaking in natural conversation.  I'm so horrible at talking with people.  And then people think I don't like them or that there is something wrong with me because I stop speaking.  No, I'm not mad.  No, there's nothing wrong.  I just decide that the saying "girls should be seen and never heard" actually means "christine should be seen and never heard".  I'd rather be mute than say another thing stupid.

Sofie's taking a nap on my dirty clothes...gross.  I need some chocolate.  I wish there was a chocolate delivery service like pizza.  Mmm...chocolate....
