After a long unexplainable absence, it is rather odd to think about what drove me back into the reassuring familiarity of a blank page and a blinking cursor. Stranger than that however, is that the force that brought me on here is the very thing I do not wish to discuss. Suffice it to say that over the past six months I have found that it is actually possible to make me feel bad about myself, and that I am more emotionally demanding than I ever thought I would or could be. On to funner things...or rather things that are not so personal. I recently saw a commercial for a new show starting in the UK with Paris Hilton. The voice-over sounded super-psyched that she was in the UK and said something like "we're sorry US but you can't have her back!" I couldn't help thinking that the Americans were probably saying "Keep her!" This made me chuckle a little (yes, I do often chuckle at my not-so-funny jokes. It's how I keep myself enteratined) before realizing that I ...

I recently learned something about myself, and while it is strange that I only found this out recently, it's not surprising. Given the upbringing I had where my parents, and more specifically, my father would make all of my decisions for me, presenting them in a way that made it look like they were my own, this late self-revelation is understandable. I found that I detest being told I can't do something. It makes me even more determined to do it and do it great too. Which is why at the moment I find myself teaching 3 college courses, working full time elsewhere, studying full time (my big exam's in November. Yay! LOL), translating/editing/writing stuff for a thought forum, and upkeeping a house that I live in but do not own any part of. Oh, and absolutely no social or love life to speak of. Oh and of course how could I forget the founding of an evil lair?! He says I'm stubborn. Isn't determined a nicer word? I feel this insane need to prove to everyone that I am capable of ...

I HATE MAKING SPELLING MISTAKES AND I HATE SPACES EVEN MORE FOR MAKING IT SO DIFFICULT FOR ME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO EDIT AN ALREADY PUBLISHED ENTRY I know it's irreconcilable and not unreconcilable...the prefix ir- is there rather than the un- because it's easier to pronounce.813 days ago
I've got beef. I know, it seems that lately I'm not too happy with anything. I blame it on drivers here. Yep. They drive so horrendously badly that it puts me in a bad mood. But right now my beef's with movie makers. What's up with the movie scene these past 2 years or so? Has the industry peaked and is now taking its natural course of plummeting to the ground where it will lie with every bone broken gasping to get air into its crushed lungs? Yea, I know it's a cliche. My mind's not working at it's normal rate tonight. I blame it on Music and Lyrics. Yep...the movie. Now, I generally enjoy movies that are either about singing or dancing, yet strangely seem allergic to musicals. Go figure. But Music and Lyrics was just one disappointing scene after another. I found it to be a rather cliched plot with cliched lines. I should've known to leave when the movie started off with a song that had lyrics to the effect of, "pop goes my heart" and I kept thinking, "pop goes ...

I'm sorry that the Evanescence review took so long. I would've asked you if I actually knew who you were! You forget to sign off with a name, and while I'm sure you've heard of my great psychic powers...I'll let you in on a little secret. It's all just a hoax. I'm not really psychic. I'm just psycho. Actually, the reason why it took so long to get the review out was because I thought I'd lost the album. I had it on my mp3 player, and then tried to copy all my music onto my computer. For some reason the majority of the 60gb did not get copied, and soon after my mp3 player took a fatal fall, forever trapping my music inside it. Yes, I know. It's all very sad. But I am trying to get by dealing with just one day at a time. Then one day I hear The Only One blasting out of my speakers, and my mouth drops open. I hadn't lost the album! My mind instantly goes back to my space & the comment No Name left suggesting I review The Open Door, and I think "It's about time I did ...
