He thinks he's sweet...

I woke up this morning to find my boyfriend sitting next to me Indian style watching me. After I jumped across the room from fear I sat down next to him. I exhaled and I asked him why he did what he did? First he pulls out a check made out to what I had spent. I tore it up and handed it back to him. He frowned and then he pulled out a couple Styrofoam cartons filled with breakfast food. He also pulled out a rose. I had to give it to him because he was trying to get to me but I am not forgetting.

Finally finished!

WOO-HOO! I finally finished the rough draft of my Ph.D. research proposal, and have sent it on to my thesis editor. Now everything (including the last few chapters of my thesis) are in her hands, so now I just have to sit back and wait for her to send me the corrections. I still have to start doing some reading to prepare for the written exam, but that only counts for about 30% of the score for the entrance exam. The other 70% or so is based on your oral exam (discussing your M.A. thesis, resear

Uselessness of it all...

:nuke: Chaz and I are not talking right now. We had an argument last night. I had planned this whole romantic day including a limo, a fancy restaurant and a B&B. He never showed up. He never called me and I found him yesterday morning sleeping on my doorstep. He had forgotten his keys and he still didn't think he did anything wrong.   I asked him where he was and he told that he went out with some old friends. Which is totally fine with me except when he knows that I had planned something

If it ain't Baroque...

You didn't really think I was actually going to make such a horrible pun, did you?   I'm really blogging way too much lately. Maybe I'm becoming something of an egotist. Anyway, last night I went to this party, and I think there were probably a good 40 people crammed into this apartment, and most of them I'd never seen before in my life. Most of them the girl that I knew who lived there had never seen before in her life. A lot of them were these frat guy types, who I have to say are not my fav

My Anthology Entry

Ok, so I did it...I finished my anthology entry and now it's off to Kitty...I hope it's good enough to get published     I worked super hard on it, and i wanted to try something original. The theme was a day of silence, as most of you know, and i thought it was kinda generic, so I decided to go at it from a different angle. I'm hoping people like it. Also, I can't wait to post it in the short stories section of my new and improved Nick's Story Page   So anyway, besides that, I'm super tic

OCD. Hmm. Both Kevin and Patricky think they have it, and I just wrote a reply on Patricky's blog saying it was all twaddle. Then it crossed my mind that I have it too!   Whenever I go to the beach I have to find a stone with a hole in it. I mean it's not a total compulsion, but I do get annoyed if I have to leave without finding one. Luckily there are lots of stones with holes in them, otherwise I'd probably need a straight jacket.   This 'stone with hole' thing started a year or so ago. N

Rocky Mountain Oysters

I was trying to think of another name for this blog: I ponder a lot, and really 'A bunch of Balls' wasn't doing it for me. So I googled, as you do, and damn me if the truth is worse than any of my putrid mental fictions.   Those who live in the good old US probably know already that Rocky Mountain Oysters are Bulls Bollocks cooked and apparently eaten with a side helping of Chips. I was, and still am frankly amazed, and feeling rather squeamish.   Yelch. Real Oysters are bad enough.   Cam

My newest project

Warning:::: No rant ahead this time   Alright, so I've been working to make my stories better through my editor, Talonrider, the greatest editor of all time IMO. While he's been working his butt off on my story, he's also been working hard to get me hosted on some really awesome sites, including CRVboy and his site, The Talon House. There's no way I could ever pay him back for all of his hard work and his patience with my bad spelling and grammer. While he's been doing all of that for me, I'

green po-tat-oes

Happy St. Patricks Day!   I forgot to wear green (actually, I didnt feel like wearing green) today and I got pinched more than once, but in no good places. I had KFC, and I freaked out because my mashed potatoes were green and I thought something was wrong with them (mine were the only ones at the table that were green) and the girl there had to explain to me that it was because mine were the new batch so the guys I work with got old potatoes, but that

I hate people

The idiot kids who live across the hall from me are having some loud, drunken party. I was okay with this, for now, cause I stay up pretty late anyway. Then I heard sort of a scratching sound coming from my door, and went and looked out the peephole. There were like 8 people standing right outside my door and one of them was stealing one of the numbers off the door! (they're stickers) Then he yells really loudly (for me? just cause he was drunk and being loud?) "I've got the 0 in my wallet!" and

Art, science, and craft

Or "On the nature of writing". Or something like that.   I figured it was time to stop just bitching about the things in my writing I'm not happy about and actually start doing something about it. It's too late in the semester to sign up for a writing class at the local community college, but it's never too late to read about writing, so I've started.   A while back I picked up a copy of "Characters and Viewpoint" by Orson Scott Card (on the recommendation of The Pecman, who wrote the storie

Ok, so I'm kinda gonna go on another rant, but on a different subject, so here goes...warning, rant ahead   I was sitting alone in the breakroom at work (because i cant stand to be in there when my supervisors in there since she stinks the place up with her ciggerrettes) and I was thinking about my life and what it's about right now. I mean, I'm definitely doing different things with it, and I'm happy about what I'm doing...I'm even managing to keep up with my homework even though I dont seem

sneezing bunnies-the most pathetic thing ever

I'm sort of freaking out because I think my bunny is sick. Earlier today he was making these really pathetic and scary whimpering noises, and he's been sneezing a lot. I thought maybe he was just whining because we got him a new brand of hay that he's been more or less refusing to eat, and he stopped when I gave him a carrot, but now there's the sneezes, which sound kind of wet. Every time he starts I have to force myself not to call the boyfriend at work in a panic. We don't have a functional c

WASABI SAUCE and WATER!

We're having a great time here at the beach. It's still cold as hell but at least we are having fun. Selene finally found us we wouldn't have let her in but it was cruel to leave her out in the cold with her daughter so we let her in. Green and I love her daughter, she's so cute. Selene yelled at us because of the Dragon breath remarks we have made. I pointed out that neither of us lied. She thought it was rude of us to mention it. I wouldn't have if it wasn't for the fact that it kept me up all

Points to ponder.

I need an editor. I thought I probably might need an Editor at some point but after reading some of the excellent prose on this site, and having read a lot of utter twaddle elsewhere it finally struck me that one of the main differences was Editor. With Editor good, without bad.   So now I want one, how to go about it? I know there is a thread about the subject, and having read it I'm no further forward. It seems to me that the relationship between Author and Editor is a bit like a marriage...

After A comes C, right?

So I finished the draft for the story that I've been currently blocking on (if you were in chat the other night you got to see me ambush Dio and Myr -- sorry guys. And no, the Jell-o pictures will never see the light of day ever! ) and sent it away to be poked at by folks who're good at poking things. I've already gone and fiddled with my index page to give it a spot, along with teasing about a few other stories in the same series that are in a sufficient state to figure they will be done, even

My Internet History

It was early 2000, and I was a sophmore in high school. One of our cats suddenly got very sick and since the vet in our town was closed, my mom and I drove to the city of my aunt and cousin to take her to the all night emergency clinic. After dropping her off we go and visit my aunt and cousin and the four of us play the card game rook, which I hadn't done in about 4 or 5 years. Playing it makes me remember just how much fun it is, and what ashame we never play anymore. "But wait" I think, "

ALLO LUV!

We're here we're here at the cold beach. Oh it's freezing so we arent going to venture outside anytime soon. I am working on some artwork for my site and Chaz is writing a couple of papers he has due. So everything is calm here. No drama and I am very happy with that.   My ankle is good enough that I can walk on it and I don't get dizzy every time I stand up anymore. As predicted Selene called me this morning asking where the beach house is. I didn't tell her but Chaz saw her drive by the hou

TENSION OBSESSION

This is not what we really look like but Jonathan made it and I thought it was cool.   Here is the real reason for this though.       For those that follow my Story Mr. Black Sings A Sad Song 2. The next couple of chapters are going to be the turning point to the series. Things are happening that cannot be undone and when it's all over things will not be the same.   GREEN

I have this picture in my head, see...

And I just can't get the !@#$ thing expressed right on paper. Or screen. Whatever. You know, actually written in writing. I hate that.   This may be the biggest problem I have as a writer, actually getting into words the things I see in my head. I can't draw them, so all I can do is describe them, and, well, words just fail me. Or I fail them. Something like that.   Feelings I can do, I can manage mildly poetic cadence that'll carry you along, and I'm pretty sure I can amuse, but damn me if

An exciting day ... NOT!

Today was probably the most eventful day I've had in a while ... I went to see my doctor this morning to get a refill on my sleeping pills (I have really bad insomnia sometimes). It's 2:23 AM now and I'm still not ready to sleep, but I have to wake up at 6:30 to get ready for work ... so apparently the medication isn't helping very much.   I also managed to trek over to the supermarket, Carrefour (a French supermarket chain, although it's unfortunately been "Taiwan-ified"). I had to go because
