Why am I always the last to know about people who can ACTUALLY SING?? 


sooo good, sooo beautiful, sooo painful-- what more can you ask? 



"Gravity"

Something always brings me back to you.
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone.

You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love and not feel your reign.

Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.


You loved me 'cause I'm fragile.
When I thought that I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while and all my fragile strength is gone.

I live here on my knees as I try to make you see that you're everything I think I need here on
The ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe though I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down

Just wanted to put a public apology out there for accidentally making public, a very very very long post that should have been private for myself!

It was definitely endless and most likely required literal minutes of scrolling to get to the next post.

Once again, so so sorry!! I wish I could return those minutes of your lives to you, but alas, I'm a lowly paid drone sitting in a cubicle.

30 Rock= LOVE! Hee!

I've been catching up on all the episodes of 30 Rock that I have missed. Today's episode featured this golden nugget of dialogue: 



Jenna: What is wrong with you? That guy wanted to buy you a drink.

Liz: Really? But I already have a drink. Do you think he'll buy me mozarella sticks?



I think this ALL.THE.TIME! Is it any wonder that I'm single? ^.^

Things that give me the giggles...

The other day I read a blog entry in which the author stated her utter disregard for a movie poster that she encounters every morning as she walks through the corridor of Grand Central Terminal to get to work.


The said movie poster?




Interestingly enough, I walk through that same corridor at Grand Central Terminal every morning as well on my way to work. I, too, have seen this poster and found it disturbing.

However, my attention is unswervingly drawn to the posters right across from the one for "The Haunting in Connecticut." 
Which are: 




Its completely immature of me, I know. But I can't stop GIGGLING when I catch these posters in the corner of my eye.
I can't help but think of them as advertisements for SOFT PORN (not that I would know what those ads would look like. HEHE!)

I rue the day that they take these posters down as I will no longer have a reason for giggling to work.

when life is quite through with

     

    when life is quite through with
    and leaves say alas,
    much is to do
    for the swallow,that closes
    a flight in the blue;

     

    when love's had his tears out,
    perhaps shall pass
    a million years
    (while a bee dozes
    on the poppies, the dears;

     

    when all's done and said,and
    under the grass
    lies her head
    by oaks and roses
    deliberated.)

Maybe it's the economy... maybe its just the general feeling of gloom and doom that we've been experiencing in the corporate world,
but this video actually brought to the verge of tears...

Just the joy, happiness, the utter FUN on everyone's expression, it made me HAPPY!

And they say you Brits don't have a sense of humor. :-)

Ironic isn't it? Somehow, I know with utter certainty that when I'm old and gray, very little of Obama's stirring speech will remain in my mind. However, this hat... this Giant-Blinged-Out-Bad-Ass-Bow monstrosity, I will be able to describe with perfect precision. ^.^

The Ex List

I've found it
That show you watch without much expectation
That show critics occasionally mention without much fanfare.

You know? That show you happen upon while you're
flicking through channels on a Friday night because
you're home for once.

And then your finger pauses, and you can't bear to
flick the "up" button again.
Because what is on your TV screen is THAT GOOD!

This season, that show is 'The Ex-List', people!


The premise of the show is that "Bella" (Elizabeth Reaser)
goes to a psychic who tells her that she only has one
year to find her soulmate (who happens to be an "ex"),
or she'll live alone FOREVER.

I know. Corny isn't it? This is a show that can go so
horribly wrong.

But it doesn't. It's great. It's funny, It's smart, and did I mention that
all Bella's Exes are going to be HOT?

Please please watch it people.

CBS has relegated it to the Friday night death slot of 9:00 PM.
And we know what happens to shows that get scheduled for Friday night at 9:00.

That's right. They get cancelled.

You can prevent it! So watch, download, tell EVERYONE.

Don't let this show get away.



And I need to stop, because I'm vaguely nauseating myself with how much I'm gushing over this show.

Speaking of Gossip Girl...

Once my usual run of Monday shows begin, i will probably become more forceful in treating my addiction to Gossip Girl.

However, as I just stated, until those shows begin their fall season, I will be *shamefully* glued to my television every Monday
evening at 8:00 PM.

I will swear that I watch it because it is so BAD that its GOOD...

But sometimes I think its just GOOD. ::looks around sneakily::


Anyway... Yesterday, as I was watching, I utterly coveted THIS: 



Yea, Yea, I know Leighton Meester is Hot. But I actually meant that I COVETED her headband.
Isn't a gorgeous piece of work? Although, as I sadly admitted to my roommate, I just don't have the courage of carry it off in public.

Still, today I managed to track it down. It's a Jennifer Behr--

and costs $152 DOLLARS!!!!

In the words of Gossip Girl: O.M.G.

This little piece of fashionry has just slipped past my greedy paws.

Growing up is no fun...

Work is kicking my ass. It truly is.

I just realized that its been eons since I've posted anything at all and I thought that this post could reassure the one or two of you reading that I am still alive.

It's just that work is kicking my butt.

Bad Thai cops to endure Kitty shame

Mon Aug 6, 7:38 AM ET

Thai police officers who break rules will be forced to wear hot pink armbands featuring "Hello Kitty," the Japanese icon of cute, as a mark of shame, a senior officer said Monday.

Police officers caught littering, parking in a prohibited area, or arriving late — among other misdemeanors — will be forced to stay in the division office and wear the armband all day, said Police Col. Pongpat Chayaphan. The officers won't wear the armband in public.

The striking armband features Hello Kitty sitting atop two hearts.

"Simple warnings no longer work. This new twist is expected to make them feel guilt and shame and prevent them from repeating the offense, no matter how minor," said Pongpat, acting chief of the Crime Suppression Division in Bangkok.

"(Hello) Kitty is a cute icon for young girls. It's not something macho police officers want covering their biceps," Pongpat said.

He said police caught breaking the law will be subject the same fines and penalties as any other members of the public.

"We want to make sure that we do not condone small offenses," Pongpat said, adding that the CSD believed that getting tough on petty misdemeanors would lead to fewer cases of more serious offenses including abuse of power and mistreatment of the public by police officers.

Hello Kitty, invented by Sanrio Co. in 1974, has been popular for years with children and young women. The celebrity cat adorns everything from diamond-studded jewelry, Fender guitars and digital cameras to lunch boxes, T-shirts and stationery.

On Vacation...

Hello? Any quality fic out there?

  • Jun. 14th, 2005 at 10:28 PM

My fanfic obsession began in Fall of 1998 with my discovery that some wonderful people out there, somewhere, wrote better "Buffy, The Vampire Slayer" episodes than the actual writers of the shows.

I must admit however that before I fell into this fanfic craze, I was warned. I was told that fanfic was addicting and that it would become a life-time habit that I would need to fulfill- did I listen?

No.

Like any good addict, I was in denial at first.

"I'm not addicted... I can stop anytime".

Yeah. right.

But this was when there was an overwhelming flood of quality fanfic to read in all fandoms-


Now seven years later, I find myself at a loss because there's hardly anything out there worth reading. Any quality fic that I do find, I devour... but that only lasts so long.


So this is my honest plea-

Please reinstate my love and belief in fanfiction. I'm hoping that the absence of good fiction in my life is because I'm looking in the wrong places...

Does anybody have some quality fanfic they could recommend to me?

PLEASE?!?
