Another stolen meme
I should really be memorizing a script…But this is way more entertaining!
Never mind the whole ‘Getting a job’ thing. It’s Sunday. Nobody cares.
1. George Bush. Lindsay Lohan. Dick Cheney. You have to sleep with one, marry one and kill one.
I’d kill the all.
2. Would you prefer a comfortable relationship that was passionless or a torrid affair that’s riddled with angst and uncertainty?
I am certain that neither of those things is even possible for me at this point in my life though I did the latter as a younger, much dumber, woman. Minus the “torrid” because .. well … I just didn’t know any better or know myself well enough to insist on what I deserved.
3. What is your drink of choice?
I’m supposed to say water, or Green Tea. I like Green Tea, but I also like Coke Zero and Coffee; Although both dehydrate my skin and are eating away at my organs.
4. Would you rather work an interesting job that was low-paying and be under constant financial duress, or have a comfortable lifestyle with a job that wasn’t very satisfying (but not a nightmare)?
I think I’ve done both – and they dont get any easier. You can work a low paying fun job, but sooner or later, everything stops being fun and you realize either you’re the one doing all the work, or you’re the lazy scamp who everyone is trying to get rid of. Money is awesome. There’s no substitute for the ease and freedom associated with having money in the bank and bills that are paid, but a boring job really has to be weighed heavily before you commit to that route. Though money is great, it isnt everything.
5. You are boarding a plane tomorrow morning. Where are you going?
In no scenario I can think of - short of someone dying or being near death – would I be getting on a plane.
If I had to go somewhere, it would be back to the German town my maternal family is from. Or Scotland to visit my dopplganger cousin..Or maybe Japan.
6. What was the last piece of music you purchased?
People still buy music? I get music from..uhh….Other sources…..But the last thing which was audibly concievable I had payed actual money for was Crystal Castles II.
ME: HEY LAURA, I just got the new Crystal Castles album off Itunes!
LAURA: Doesnt their album come out in stores in like, a week?
ME: ……..I couldnt wait that long…
7. If a book isn’t working for you, do you hang on hoping for redemption or bail out?
I ‘m done. No question. Life is full of great writing and I don’t waste my time or limited brain capacity on less than ideal prose.
8. Is it easy for you to admit when you’re wrong? Let’s be honest here.
Out loud? Kidding. I will eventually. First, I have to realize that I’m wrong. That’s what takes time.
9. Do you think fame is a useful tool or more trouble than it’s worth? If it came knocking on your door, would you open it?
Fame is useful but using it in a useful manner can be troublesome. If if came knocking, I’d make use of it. I mean, fame is only good when your intention is anything more than shit you pulled in highschool.
10. Fill in the blank. I wish my parents had not __________.
I’m not going to second guess them. Mostly because I can only view their lives – that part which I was around for – as pure hell.
Deeeaaatthhhh!!
Death is a cheap trick.
I dont know why so many TV shows/Movies/Books rely on such natural even to cause such a chaotic and unnatural response in their storylines.
If I ever were in charge of writting a TV/Movie Screenplay (and my Jebus help me if I ever am!), I’d focus more on the developement of the very simple formula which every screenplay always begins with: Normal Characters reacting to abnormal circumstances.
Death shouldnt be used as some kind of twist or spin. Not because of the whole moralty thing, but because everybody already knows what’s going to happen! BOOM! DEAD! Okay..Emotional reaction, the person isnt going to be in the next season/sequel.
Wow. Big freakin deal.
When someone dies in real life, the only way I can describe it is it feels really numb.
Alot of people think it’s this huge catastrophical even in which you are obviously godlike if you dont end up in the psych ward following the funeral. For some people, yeah, it is like that…But not for most.
For most, it’s just about getting on with our lives, remembering the loved ones which had passed, and figuring out where to put all the fucken flowers everyone keeps sending you (as if, by some magical Daisey power, all your problems will be healed!………Actually, flowers aint too bad…when they’re not dead..)
Anyways, I guess the point of rant is that media should really look for some new plot lines, instead of sticking to the same old ‘Beloved hero dies at the end’ spin on things. How bout this: Beloved Hero gets increadibly Obsese with all the chocolate everyone gives them and then must enlist a tough as nails Judo Master with a sour past, who will then lead them to former glory!…………….Too much?…
Black Birthday
Please Dear Father, Please forgive me,
Close your eyes to all you see.
Cross you arms to bear the truth, that’s when I will honour you.
Since you’ve been gone, all we’ve been talking about, is different problems, while I’m dragging my heels- So long to be my Mother. So long to be My friend.
Will you talk to me- I’m so bored! I just stay in the house, staring down at the floor. If you learn to follow and see, then I’ll know you will honour me.
I’ve burned all the guilt that has chewed inside me. I threw it into the Ocean-Passed it off to the Sea.
If this is Love, Then I’m Fucking Proud of it.
If this is Failure, Then I’m Fucking Proud of it.
If this is Agony, Then I’m Fucking Proud of it.
If this is Life, Then I’m Fucking Proud of it.
