A Boyfriend or a Playmate

So today was totally amazing!   I had work, which was pretty much uneventful. Then as I was about to leave, Amber came in for her shift. I hadn't seen her in about 3 weeks. See she basically transferred to our other location, but was filling in for someone. Well I pretty much had felt like it was all for the best, that she'd made it more or less clear she wasn't interested in being close friends anymore, and that I (and she) was better off. Then I saw her. I had a reaction which rather t

I Have Something Up My Sleeve!

So I've been dabbling with some things and I found an old short story of mine. I forgot that I even wrote this story. I read it and it Inspired me to come up with three more story ideas. I'm only going to post these in my blog. My friend Jonathan wipped the artwork up for me in an hour.       So look forward for the first story in a few days as I Write and edit them.   GREEN   P.S. one is going to be loosely based on my lovely bf.

Taipei weather is insane!

It's been really warm here the past few days ... I swear, I hate the weather in Taiwan! Just last week, I had to wear layers of clothes just to keep barely warm, since they don't have heating here (and I won't get one of those space heaters 'cause I don't trust my cats around them). The past two days, though, have been really warm. I've had to open the windows, which hasn't really helped much (plus they're letting in a lot of mosquitoes) ... I've contemplated turning on the air-conditioner, but

Jealousy, Strippers, Fever, Accidents and Devils!

I had a crazy night last night. I was almost arrested for assault by a male stripper. Yeah A male stripper dressed like a cop. I went to a bachelorette party at the request of a friend. Chaz decided that he needed to go too so we went. As it turned out it was not a bachelor party but a surprise party. I was a little annoyed at first but when I saw all of the hardwork that myfriends went through this year just to keep it from me I decided why not, just have fun. Alright I've never seen Chaz jeal

I need something to bitch about

So, I read Snow Dog's and Nick's blogs tonight, and they both have problems in their lives, and it made me realize how lucky I am. I mean, I really don't have any problems right now. Well sure, I had problems in the past, but they are staying in the past. And my mom may be a little crazier than your average shithouse rat, but she stills love me to death. So in essence right now I am complaining about having nothing to complain about. Ironic, eh?   In other news, I have a new name for Assh

Thoughts I can't control

I know this is kinda depressing, but I decided to write this here because it's my blog, and I feel like this is a good place to get things off of my mind that I don't feel comfortable talking about with too many other people.   I've been thinking about my mom a lot lately, and it's kinda had me bummed out. I know that there's no way to go back in time or to bring her back, but I have so many questions that I know I can never get the answers to. It's like Rory in DD, but I wasn't ever lied to b

Next on the List

So it's not going perfectly, but I gotta say I think I'm doing better with my New Year's resolutions than I usually do. I resolved to:   1)Basically quit drinking except in very safe social situations. I mean I never thought I was drinking excessively, heck I think I only got drunk three times all of last year. I guess what was concerning me was that I really got to the point that I'd crave a margarita a couple of times a week, and if no one wanted to get one with me, I got to the point I'd

Few things, story business mostly.

How would you guys feel about a story that I could post here in my blog? I have a couple ideas for a blog series. I could post a new short chapter here every few days. Please let me know what you think. I could also break up one of my series for posting.   Speaking of stories I am also preparing to add My Story A hero In the hallways to the GA archive. It will be my first addition. I am working with a new editor named Richard and I'm hoping to be able to polish and post it here soon. A Hero

Old Tennis Balls

You ever just find yourself with pointless clutter that you don't know what to do with. I mean you don't need the random objects anymore (if you ever did at all), but there's nothing wrong with them so you hate to throw them away, but then they're so random you don't really have a "place" for them.   See tonight I decided I was going to thoroughly clean up my room, and ruthlessly throw away all the old junk I don't need. Then I'm going to my kitchen, and dumping all the stuff in my pantry

good book?

Wrapped in a pink and orange, argyle, fleece blanket to keep warm, I'm always cold. I walk down the hallway acrosss the old creaky, wooden floor to my living room looking for some tissues. I find some and make my way to the kitchen where I find Rich, getting laundry from the dryer to be folded and put away, hung in closets. It's midnight now. I've been home from work for two and a half hours and while Rich and Tony are playing Nintendo and laughing with each other, an amazing sound that makes me

Frosting?

Today as I came home from my little excursion with the family my friend David asked me if I could go with him to spy on our friend Rob. David got it in his head that Rob was cheating. I of course said yes so he could see how much of an idiot he was. Rob has been spending some time working with some kids part time so he could earn enough money to take David to the Bahamas for his birthday.   So knowing full well that this could spoil the surprise I decided I would go. Nothing amuses me more tha

I hate Rory

It's been a while since I posted. My life has been extremely uneventful lately.   The episode of CSI Thursday night made me cry. It inspired me to begin writing a tear-jerker. Well, begin another one. I've already started like three. That's about all that has happened. I don't have to take my English final becuase I exempted it. I am happy. I am sad that I had to go back to school, though. dk;fbjkfjkag;ikbnfngnerkbuir.   -psychic psychopath

How I became a sinner!

I've been staying with Chaz and his family for the last couple of days. It's been really fun. I think I've met everyone that is related to this family also as they have big family get togethers. I've been here a couple of days and they've already had two get togethers. One to meet me and a second to make sure I met everyone else. It's definitely weird but awesome in the same sense.   In one of the get togethers I was invited to join in a game of poker against Chaz's Grandmother and Granfather.

50th entry!

Okay so I love... LOVE the fact that it is a beautiful, sunny 87 degrees here today in the middle of winter and I haven't worn a sweater all day and I still have on my flip flops for those of you who live in celsius that is... approximately 28.   I decided, after much thought and random surveying that I am gonna try a 'dear viv' blog... People always come to me for advice, to talk over their problems... and I love it not that they're having trouble... just that I can help... usually. So the

Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.

I read this article yesterday about how Chuck Norris apparently has this cult following among college-age people. My dad's favorite show ever was Walker, Texas Ranger, so I've quite unwillingly seen a lot of Chuck Norris in my day. For anyone who has no idea what I'm talking about, sorry, you can leave now. Anyway, there were some pretty hilarious lines from the story I thought I'd share.   Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.   Chuck Norris frequently donates blood to the Red Cross. Just

Round Two: I Can Do Better

So I was going to write this whiney entry complaining about all the things I couldn't do. All the things I used to know and can't remember; all the hopes I had that didn't pan out; all the skills I had that I've lost. Then I realized, What the heck am I whining about? I should just get out there and learn it/relearn it/do it.   I'm sick of making excuses, lowering my standards, and playing for sympathy. I'm sick of doing it the easy way. I'm sick of worrying. I'm sick of playing it saf

What a boring life!

I've had even more free time than usual over the past couple of weeks (and I had *tons* of free time before that!), but now that I have even more free time, the lazier and lazier I've become. I mean ... I *should* be finishing my thesis, but I just don't feel inspired. There are also a couple of other projects that I'm interested in, but I don't want to get caught up in any of those until my thesis is finished ... kind of like a Catch-22, I suppose.   Anyway, one of the projects I want to work

The tale of the underwear snatcher!

As I found myself with nothing to do today and I was too frustrated to rewrite the chapters I lost I decided that I should take care of the giant laundry mountain that was piling up. My washer wasn't working so I went to my mothers house. It looked like no one was home so I let myself in and headed towards the laundry room.   I did the usual separating and I smiled when I found a pair of Chaz's boxers. I threw them in the wash with the colors and left the machine to do it's thing. I went to

To Be In The Kitchen

So today was okay I guess. I was at work and around 11:00 I got this call from the apartment complex I was interested in, in Houston. Turns out they were doing the final bits of paper work, before they placed me on the "priority waiting list", and they had a problem with some of my information. Namely that I didn't currently clear three times the amount of rent per month. I of course politely said that 1) I was pretty sure I could afford the place on my current income because it's not that m

Loveless

Chaz has been gone for a week. I miss him and its affecting everything. I was almost done with the next chapter of Julian grace when the phone rang and I accidentially ripped the cord of my pc. I lost the whole chapter and the first half of The premier chapter to Mr. Black 2.   Then I dropped hot cocoa on myself when the phone rang once again. I tripped over a table and I still didn't get to the phone in time. It was him to so I called him back but he didn't answer. It's driving me crazy becau

root beer floats... sigh

Well, I started out today thinking that I was doing just fine, I even talked to my Sweetie for a while and that was... SUPERB!! Then I went to work and there is a new guy there, Steve, since they closed 5 stores near mine, we have new employees... Anyway, he said, that I looked sad today... and I said nah, I'm fine... But then as I started to think about it more, I realized... I AM SAD   I am... it's true, and I know I am because I actually am drinking a root beer float right now. How does t

i've got the power!

Okay, well the power just came back on It suddenly went out about 3 hours ago, due to the crappy rain and wind we were having here (I'm assuming) while I was chatting with Slave, so forgive me for just leaving you due to reasons beyond my control...   Anyway, Rich and I used the time to catch up on sleep and snuggle   So, if people's attitudes yesterday were a sign of how things are going to go in the coming year then... YAY!!! Everyone was sooooooooo nice even considering it was cold and
