i'm all out of words
Dear Entertainment Community,
You have taken an indifference towards Jennifer Aniston and made me hate her. Hate. I tire of seeing her on the cover of tabloids. I found her absurdly fast selling Vanity Fair article to be a bit on the tacky side, and if someone would mind putting her in a box and keeping her hidden away for a few years, I promise I wouldn't complain. If someone does this, could you tuck Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes into the same box? Thank you.
Last night I had the oddest dream. I was in school, sort of, and running late for my last final, and I hadn't studied a bit, which wouldn't have been horrible for the multiple choice part, but any written explinations would have doomed me. On the way to the class, I ended up in this warped version of the mall and there were pullips everywhere. Each store seemed to have their own custom doll even if it made no sense to have a doll in the store to begin with. Oh so weird. It got weirder but I don't remember it.
Work was work. Mr. Bitches was late by about four hours. :p I hate working until eight for a completely new reason. The sun blinds me every damn morning, and it never fails, someone makes me move out of the protective shade of the ATM so that I can show them how to work their debit/credit card. BLIND.
1. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
Nantcee. I think that's how she spelled it. It's been ages. July 10. I think it was the same year, but I was forever befriending people a year older than me, so it might have been that. Then there were Dan & Rob at the comic store. They also had the same birthday as me, only not the same year for sure. Yeah. I went ages without knowing anyone else with my birthday and then one year I found a million people. Or at least three. Wait, you only wanted one...
2. Where was your first kiss?
My room. :p Or church. I honestly don't remember if the church one happened. o_O
3. Have you ever seriously vandalized someone else's property?
Um, not that I'm aware of?
4. Have you ever hit someone of the opposite sex?
Not that I remember. I've thrown things, but never just slugged away.
5. Have you ever sung in front of a large number of people?
When I was in chorus we sang at the mall.
6. What's the first thing you notice about the preferred sex?
Am I the only person on the planet who doesn't have a first thing in general? It's different for each person I notice. Sometimes I notice their eyes, or a smile, or a laugh, or red hair. But I really pay attention if you speak the language of trivia/geekdom.
7. What really turns you on?
...
8. What do you order at Starbucks?
I've never been to Starbucks.
9. What is your biggest mistake?
I ended up involved, sort of, with a friend's ex. Christ, if I could go back in time and slap some sense into myself then, I'd appreciate it.
10. Ever hurt yourself on purpose?
I am deliberately reckless at times, but I don't sit there smacking my arm against something or scratching something into my skin or any of the numerous ways to intentionally harm me.
11. Say something totally random about you.
My eyes are weird.
12. Has anyone ever said you looked like a celebrity?
Not that I know of.
13. Do you still watch kiddy movies or tv shows?
Cartooooooons! I'm not proud.
14. Did you have braces?
No. But anyone under the age of thirty who told me, "Hey, you need braces" and wasn't a dentist ended up with them. Magic.
15. Are you comfortable with your height?
What's not to be comfortable with?
16. What is the most romantic thing someone of the preferred sex has done for you?
Braves the wonder of the grehound bus system in a thinly veiled attempt to win me back/applogise.
17. When do you know it's love?
When the love fairy smacks you upside the head with a frying pan. [I dunno. You just do? ]
18. Do you speak any other languages?
Not really. Three years of Spanish and I have nothing to show for it except an intense fear of being asked personal questions.
19. Have you ever been to a tanning salon?
Nuh uh.
20. What magazines do you read?
Tv Guide, Blender, Inside TV, People, and just about any gossipy trashy or snarky magazine that we sell at work. I look at InStyle, but I wouldn't call it reading.
21. Have you ever ridden in a limo?
Nope.
22. Has anyone you were really close with passed away?
Behold the amazing grandparentless me! Yes.
23. Do you watch MTV?
Their news snippets and the odd video they occasionally show. Otherwise it makes my eyes bleed.
24. What's something that really annoys you?
Being asked, "Do you guys sell ping pong balls?" by every single person in a small group of college kids. I loathe that. Like I'm telling Gidget, Bradley, and Slutlana no, but I'm gonna tell Steven yes? No. There's no secret handshake that will get you something we do not sell.
25. What's something you really like?
The sound of my cat purring.
26. Do you like Michael Jackson?
I twitched at this question, I think that says enough.
27. Can you dance?
Not that I'm aware of.
28. What's the latest you have ever stayed up?
Until I was 18 or so I don't think I slept at all. :p But if you want a real answer, I think I was awake for three days straight once. I don't know why, I just was.
29. Have you ever thought that you were honestly going to die?
My life has never passed before my eyes.
30. Have you ever been rushed by an ambulance into the emergency room?
Nuh uh.
31. Do you actually read these when other people fill them out?
Sometimes, frequently if I steal it from someone. :p
I don't think I mention that I ended up watching T*Witches on Halloween. I don't know how it happened, but I did. It's always sad when you can spot the badguy a mile away but they don't officially announce it until you've all but given him a black cowboy hat. I wonder how it compares to the series it was based on? Ah, memories of seeing those books on the shelves. Ahh, books. And witches on TV in any form.
Okay. I need sleep. You may resume whatever you were doing and pretend you won't miss me when I'm gone.
Oh, and how cool is this? Yes. I'm still going on about being on Sarah's acknowledgements page. Yes. Yes I am. And will until forever.

And all hail the fabulous us! Whose book do I need to buy to see your name in print before the word finally gives you a crack at the writing aspect?
no subject
BTW, the book is not set to be published yet (but it probably will be). It's by Lilith Saintcrow, lovely author of WORKING FOR THE DEVIL, which you are currently loving. :-D The current title is THE DEVIL'S LIBRARIAN but it could change depending on the editorial process. I hope it stays cuz I love it. It's a different universe from Dante Valentine, but it was equally as enjoyable. Lilith is my bud now and she is fabulous!! :-D
