Just breathe,
drink a glass of water. Disregard the 80 degrees in your office and try and meditate before the asswipe-bank-rep-who’s-responsible-for-your-company’s-loans and is a douche bag walks in to berate you on his company’s mistakes.

Music Yay?
Yay! Spotify I love you so far, don’t disappoint me! First Pandora, then Shuffler.fm then whatever that google music thing was completely sucked. But this - so far, I LIKE!

Writing question..
Does anyone know..
If you’re writing about an historical event, and you’re putting a fictional twist on it, are you allowed to mention those events if you were not there and were not involved?
Are you allowed to use news articles as information as to what happened and when, if you wish to use it as a setting for a fictional situation?
And third, one often sees at the beginning of...

Geek Moment..
Happy to announce that the J.R. Ward Message boards are back online after a summer hiatus. This shut-down has precipitated my membership to Tumblr AND my summer-story writing. Happy events DO occasionally spring from dissapointments..
Home
Spent the weekend with friends and family at home rather than at the campground where I’ve been living for the summer. Using my mother’s computer which is old and I’m on Firefox instead of chrome. The scrolling of this screen is so jumpy it’s making me nauseous. Signing off..

Quandary..
.. I am a genuine Flip Cup Champion who hates beer. Should-I-have a.) Played with Beer and puke because I hate beer and never drink it, OR b.) Play with vodka + fake sierra mist because it’s more palatable and puke 2 hours later anyway? Let’s just say both options suck, but option B was awful.

Special Report
Sorry to post so much in one day, but I’ve been on a mountain top for the past few days and need to weigh in:
I called Belinda at the hospital and am pleased to report that she’s angry at everyone, kicking people out of her room for stealing her Stok caffeine shots she smuggled into the hospital, yelling at people for opening her door and stealing her air conditioning and issued a...
Perspective in Repetition
While working in customer service for a large, outdoor local concert venue I often felt the fatigue of giving the same answers to three or four basic questions to hundreds of people every single day.
Now that I no longer work for that venue, instead am employed in an office as a secretary for someone who sells a service to others, I am faced with what I am guessing is the inverse (reverse?) of...

Best Wishes for Belinda
Was saddened to learn, a mere hours after posting a photo of Belinda’s Pharmacy in West Virginia, that my favorite hillbilly, my best-old-lady friend is currently hospitalized with pneumonia, and (while currently suffering from brain cancer) has been told she has “spots” on her lungs.
I don’t know anything else other than the fact that she had to be convinced to be taken...

Stuck in Masontown West Virginia waiting on a tow truck to take this motor home down off this mountain. Probably going to sleep at the mechanic’s shop tonight until the RV is fixed.

I thought our transmission was loud, dragging an exhaust for 20 miles, now THAT’S loud!

Conversations With Belinda BULLPUCKY Edition.
Girl: You know what, I’m not going to put rubber bands on my wind chimes anymore.
Belinda: Why would you do that?
Girl points to dude who she’s currently sleeping with.
Belinda: Well BULL PUCKY! You pay all that money just to shut them chimes up.
WatchMy Car-Riding Arm Game: I’ve played this dumb thing for as long as I can remember. I stick my arm out the window fearing that it will get chopped off if it’s fully extended while passing mailboxes and light posts. Hence the hand flapping. Neurotic or just dumb? Let’s take a vote on my OCD tendencies…

Update
At no fault of my snaggle toothed rescuer, the battery jump didn’t work. If I could identify the starter on my 2000 Passat, I would try to bang on it with an improvised hammer (stainless steel coffee mug). In any event, all I can do is sit and wait for grumpy hillbilly boyfriend to arrive + ex junkyard boss to come with a flatbed for a tow. Initial diagnosis is a seized motor. Less than 5...
FML
Car died in transit and I’m broke. No $ for a tow. Hopefully the snaggle toothed wonder man who stopped can work a miracle with the jumper cables.

Truthful Tuesday
I just now finished reading the Wiki article on Casey Anthony because I didn’t know who she was, what she allegedly did, and why everyone was so pissed off. Also, not surprised at the verdict because I know convicted killers with real evidence against them that have served less time than she has. Just sayin’. Other than that I don’t give a damn about that piece of shit whether...

Pandora’s on my shit list. Naming an artist on your custom station is the death stroke to the station itself. If I want to hear R.E.M. that DOESN’T mean play Matchbox 20 over and over again while NEVER playing One. Single. R.E.M. Song. Ever. Again.
Currently enjoying my generic folk shuffler.fm music blog mix [I don’t even know what music blogs are, but it seems initially cool]...

Conversations With Belinda Part III. Mini Edition
Cop jumped in my car at 65th + Denison. He was chasing the rapid line. He got in and said “I’m confiscating you and your car. GO!”
