    Talk Talk

    By Aditus

    Conversations. Sometimes it’s too much, sometimes too little, formal, informal, clumsy, artificial, with another word: difficult. Let’s practice, Shall we? #253 Someone is on the bus. The guy beside them fidgets the whole time with an irritating tinkling bangle while telling them, it seems, their entire life story, including very personal things. It’s time to pop in the earbuds. When it’s time to get off the bus, the talker has disappeared and the strange bangle is now on th

i love my husband... sometimes?!

Okay so I just got home from this pititful excuse of a way to spend my Monday night. I had a Good Scout Leader meeting to go to, every month once a month... so it was my month to bring a game, craft, or song to share with the other troop leaders so they have something new to take back and use at their troop meetings. So, I brought a game... In this game you pass a roll of toilet paper around telling each person to take as many squares as they need, of course, not telling them what for. Then once

I hate Tuesdays

I finally got up off my lazy butt yesterday and forced myself to go to the supermarket and get some cleaning done, and today at work I worked a bit on the conclusion for my thesis, which is about halfway finished (the conclusion that is, the main text of the thesis is mostly done, save for a bit of revising and polishing up) ... it always seems, however, that the last little bit is the hardest to write, and although I know what I want to say, and even though it's mostly just re-hashing the main

Post-Super Bowl insanity...with pictures

So yesterday was fun, not because I really care about football but because the entire city lost its mind. I didn't go out until about midnight, and by then it was snowing a lot and the roads were kinda icy, but there were still some diehard lunatics out running in the streets and screaming. The bf and I went to a bar in the poor ass, mostly college kid populated part of town, and unfortunately I'd already missed out on all of the rioting and fires, but I do have a few pictures of the aftermath f

The Shadow Boys Two: Thirty minutes

The lights on the stage go off as the kid walks through the door. The shadow boys reappear under a new light a moment later. This time they had taken the pink make up off and they were wearing white tuxedos. One was smiling while the other frowned.

High School Angst And Hot Waiters, My Treat...

I decided to take everyone out for dinner tonight. We went to a fancy restaurant downtown. My mother knows the owner so we got a good table in a private area of the restaurant. He even tried to give us free food but I insisted on paying, besides I think we all needed a nice night out. So everything is going good when I realize who our waiter is. Our waiter is someone who I kind of had a big fight with in high school. He and I never saw eye to eye on anything. We were rivals kind of.   Well

Everythings on hold right now....

The first thing I'd like to do is say thank you to everyone who has been reading What's the difference between me and you? . I know it's been tough dealing with all of my mistakes, but I have good news.....no, I didn't save a bunch of money on my car insurace by switching to Gieco.......I have an editor, and he's very good. He's already reworked chapters one through three for me, and as he finishes more, Im replacing the junky versions I had up there with the new and improved versions. But in t

Underthehoodster is a girl?

Well I just spent my spare time for the last three days reading Underthehoodster's Perry and Jesse series. What a captivating story. The detail and the character development were simply excellent, and it was one of those stories that I just couldn't stop. There were a things about the story that just hit me as being wrong, or maybe even impossible. Upon analyzing these impressions, I kept returning to the overwhelming conclusion that the author is either a closet female, or writing from an i

What do I do?

When I got home from school and David decided that he needed to tell me that Chaz was an asshole. I asked him why calmly at first and David told me that he was furious over the birthday thing. I told him that Chaz didn't know about the no birthday rule and that he was sorry. But then he started digging at me.   "How could you tell us to break up? How is our relationship any of your business?" He yelled at me. I turned around and walked away because he was clearly annoying me and I'm not known

Thank You

I just wanted to say Thank You to everyone who reads my blog and offers support and advice, to all the great people I've met in Live Chat, to everyone I so enjoy interacting with on the message boards, and in general to the entire GA community, be they actively vocal or a silent reader. This is a great place and I've met so many amazing people here. I could never thank everyone enough for the kindess, support, and good times you've all given me, nor could I say enough in praise of Myr and GACs

CRAZY DAYS!

This saturday is Chaz and I's three month anniversary. I'm freaking out and apparently so is he. We both wanted to plan something so we compromised. One of us will plan the night when the other can have the day. We played rock paper scissors and I got the night. So I feel like cooking and Selene and I poured through several cook books. I found something I wanted to make. I found out he's allergic to something in it.   So i found something else I want to make but it requires alot more time than

umm, random stuff, yeah...

We got our taxes done yesterday! That's out of the way, yay!   I gave two tours of the store today to kindergarteners... I just love doing that. They are so... easily amused, predictable, intruiged, and still LOVE learning new things. Plus, there were the WAY HOT firemen there again today!   When I picked up my daughter after school today she told me that the kid she sits next to in class, the one that is always bugging her to the point that she has asked the teacher to relocate him, got in

February

"February made me shiver with every paper I delivered, bad news on the door step, I couldn't take one more step"   Well it's here. The month I literally dread all year. I'll just go ahead and say it now; February sucks! ALOT! I'll explain.   Two Februarys ago it was pretty much the worst time of my life (thus far). Why? Well tough to say. I know in general I was feeling extremely lonely and pathetic, but there probably wasn't much of a tangible reason. Of course that's what makes it

The ENTIRE Justin and Lorena story

Okay, it occurred to me that some of you don't know the whole Justin and Lorena story.   Here we go...   *Vroosh!* Back to mid-eighth grade. I'm sitting in chorus class. A girl passes a note to another girl who passes it to me. I open it and read it:   Will you ask your friend Justin if he'll go out with me? *Lorena*   I immediatly start laughing my ass off. I couldnt help myself...in the entire time we knew each other we never really talked about girls and I didnt really see h

Have you ever been in love?

I've never been in love, and that greatly saddens me. However, I am in lust with FFBF, and while he was singing Maroon 5 songs to me at the competition on Saturday, I realized that all I ever feel towards someone is one of three things: lust, hate, or indifference. Well, usually. With him, it was both at the same time for a while. Strange.   It has been forever since I blogged. I just haven't been in a very bloggy mood lately. So, ummmmmm what's new in my life?

Semi-Charmed Kinda Life

I think one of the main reasons I like doing stuff for myself, and all around being independent, is because growing up people always took care of everything for me. Don't get me wrong it was absolutely great, and I DID try to watch and learn for myself, but when it came down to it most of the time all I had to do was smile and say "please" and "thank you".   See as I've mentioned in previous entries. I grew up an only child with my mom and grandparents. Well everyone knows how grandparents

Chinese New Year

Another Chinese New Year has come and gone ... it's now the Year of the Dog. I'm not much into Chinese astrology, so I have no idea if it's supposed to be an auspicious year or not ... I just know that it's been cold, rainy, and the locals have been shooting off firecrackers for the past twenty-four hours non-stop. Chinese New Year is always really boring for me ... everything shuts down and everyone goes to spend a week with their families. Being that I have no family in Taiwan, it's always jus

Just a dang ole time?

I went out last night with my so called friends. We finally all had time to see Brokeback Mountain. I have one question, what is the big deal? Its just a plain ole love story. I didn't feel much about it either way. I tried to get into it but I just couldn't. Meanwhile the four idiots I call my friends and boyfriend were balling their eyes out. Does that make me insensitive? I called my friend Jonathan and he said that he hated the movie also. Then again he hates everything.   I mean if this m

The Alternative- sneak peek

I am working on a new story and I'd like to see if it sparks any interest.   Ryan McCoy is an ordinary kid with ordinary problems. His folks are divorced, he's got ADD and, his Mom is tired of his crap. He has just run afoul of the juvinile justice system and the new draconian laws.   He is destined to go to "Alternative school" and the story is about his journey.   Interested?     __________________________________________________________________   The Alternative     Ryan McCoy

Monogamy Does Exist Right?

So today sucked!   Let's see where to begin? Well first off I text messaged, then eventually called and old (very dear) friend of mine, Claire. I could write pages on end about the complicated, but awesome sorta past we've had, but to get to the subject at hand; she broke up with her girlfriend, Mary. They'd been dating about two years now too. And actually they were one of those examples of "a happy gay couple I knew in real life". I dunno after hearing all about it, I guess it's for the

he made meatloaf!

Have I mentioned that I love Rich yet? I'm pretty sure I have   He walked in from work yesterday to find me and my daughter in a VERY heated discussion about her homework. Basically she walked into where I was with her math book unopened and claimed she needed help. Okay fine, I can understand that, but what I can't accept is that I know she hasn't even tried to do it on her own yet I'm totally on board if you NEED help, but I want you to try first! Anyway he spent a lot of time explaining

Lovehammers

Yesterday this album I've been looking forward to came out, so I got on that AOL Music Now (the subscription was a Christmas present from the bf's mom and it's more or less a pain in the ass, in my opinion, but that's another story) and downloaded it. I was a huge fan of the show Rock Star INXS, and pretty much from the first episode I was all about Marty Casey. (picture) I thought he was just so unbelievably hot, and I don't think he did a single song I didn't like. Some of his versions were

I Had to have Another Hit

I was trembling.   I'd carefully avoided it all day, but now the withdrawal was getting stronger. My nerves were shot. I couldn't stop pacing. Thinking back I realized that I couldn't pinpoint the exact time the addiction started. At first it was something I only did occasionally. Maybe as a way to celebrate, or after a stressful day. Then I gradually began to need a fix everyday. I'd promised myself those days were behind me now. I'd even told everyone that, that part my history was

I still have nightmares...lol

I woke up this morning in a panic from a nightmare, and I had to actually turn my light on to make sure I was in my room. It was the same nightmare I've had about 5 or 6 times now.... We're living in California again and Im locked out of our house for some reason, but the phone is ringing and Im desperate to get in because I know it's my real mom calling, but I can't open the door. When I finally get inside, the phone has stopped ringing and I've missed the call. So I go around the corner and f
