Why do things always go wrong on a day I am in a good mood? Yesterday at work was awful and there was nothing I could do to make it better! The phones decided not to work, the CD player stopped working, Mathis was very late, William was not coming in! AARGH! I think the…

Finally watched Lost In Translation. I really enjoyed it! Rewatched The Adventures Of The Baron Manchausen. I love that movie it makes me want to watch all the Terry Gilliam movies again. The vision and joy he expresses amaze me. I have to still watch 24 Hour Party People then I think I am done…

Here I am, I have been praying for rain to help my allergies and so it rains!! Yes, all well and good, but I wake up unable to breathe and swallow, my throat is all swollen and infected! What now I am asking myself. Why if Sunday is the start of my week to I…

About 4 years ago I could not play this song, every time I heard it I cried. And I had the tape in my car and played it constantly… so I cried a lot when driving. The tape wore out. But, Sunday at work I found another copy! So driving around today I cried again….

I woke up nice and early this morning at about 7 am! Which for me is the middle of the night. And I called my Mommy. She is shaving her head today. I phoned to give her moral support. She is doing it to raise money for Cancer Research and Support. She has raised R2500.00!…

I have a thing for the sound of clocks. The Tick-tock, Tick-tock sound I find soothing. It dates back to when I was 10. That was the Christmas I got my first clock radio. It was so cool, silver, and a clock with glow in the dark hands, and it ticked really loudly! I spent…

Aah yes pollen season. I sneeze, my head hurts, my lungs ache, my sinuses bleed, my eyes itch, no energy, my mouth itches, my nose runs/blocks up great! And sleep is fitful at best. I actually like spring in Atlanta apart from my allergies. I never had allergies growing up, why here? I know my…

I just finished Alice Sebold’s Lucky. From Publishers Weekly When Sebold, the author of the current bestseller The Lovely Bones, was a college freshman at Syracuse University, she was attacked and raped on the last night of school, forced onto the ground in a tunnel “among the dead leaves and broken beer bottles.” In a…

Last night I went to a Thrashers game, courtesy of apiakun. My first Ice Hockey game ever. They lost to the Rangers. I enjoyed parts of the game, they looked very pretty on the ice skating around, but other than that it was not great. I have a problem with professional sports I think. I…
