Hello all!  It's 12:12 at night and I'm extremely bored.  I mostly update Facebook, but I shall update here.  I got a Koi fish!  His name is Kamikaze because he's nucking futs, people.
Anyway, working at Sally Beauty in Butler, enjoying life one step at a time, hope you all are doing the same.

Wow, it's been a long time space monkeys.  I do have some interesting things to update you all one.
I have a raging UTI.
I work at a large corporation (no longer that other shit-ville place, but I have feeling this will be shitty, too).
I am trying to start a business of my own.
I am still attempting to make it in the writing/singing business.
AND I'm doing some research on plus-size heroes, but I'm finding nothing.
So that's what's up with me.  Give me a holler.

It promotes healthy figures, and has a lot of fun to it on myspace.  It's basically a fat blog for myself to accept myself for who I am and not what size I am.

So in the 'what do you have to say' section of lj they asked 'what literary character changed you in some way'.  Out of all the books, comics, short stories, and poems I've read I'd have to say Beatrice Rappaccini from Rappaccini's Daughter written by Nathaniel Hawthorne in 1844.

Why Beatrice?  Because she was beautiful, kind, and because of both of those things she succumbed to death.  She is a beautiful soul trapped in a cold, hard world where her father makes her into some kind of poisonous plant-like creature and gives her a mate.  I love it because underneath the kind hearted, beautiful exterior there is something far more dangerous in the girl.

The whole concept of the story is fantastic, being an allegory of the divine comedy and the garden of eden.  Didn't I just sound so smart there?

Anyway, thank you wikipedia.

So what was yours?

As I sit here drinking my blackberry wine (delice!) and smoking my cigarette and listening to the Chieftans MacAllistrum's March, I revel in the beauty that is life.  We have so many beautiful things, like blackberry wine and cigarettes and the Chieftans MacAllistrum's March.  Beautiful.  So I came up with a drunken haiku.  Or a haiku of sorts.  It's a little long for a haiku, maybe a little short and there are no drunken typos.  I promise.
Port, Sherry, Whiskey, and Rum
Oh what valiant fun, fun, fun! 
Listen to that sound!  Do you hear it?  Yes, it's blackberry wine and cigarettes and the Chieftans' MacAllistrum's March!  Dance to it!  Sing to it!  Breathe to it!  Just do it!

I'm so incredibly insanely unsatisfied with my career choice.  I think I've chosen the wrong profession.  But on the other hand, I think I'm doing all right.  Maybe I should go back to school for something more, well, my level.  Not saying that hairdressers are dumb, but the truth is they basically are viewed as dumb underlings.  Those to be crushed beneath one's large, black, vast boot like a bug.  I'm regularly treated like an idiot by customers and it's demeaning.  Hopefully I won't turn into a dolt.

Glad to see everyone's doing all right, even if there's some slight obstacles to overcome.  Glad to hear Sarah's having a good 21st!  Go you baby!
Anyway, just dropping by to give everyone a line to show them that I am truly not dead.  And I'm listening to rather sophisticated music.

Hey guys!  Guess what?!  I'm so not dead!

Hope everyone's doing great, because guess what else?  I go to school tuesday through friday 9-3:30.  So my summer is basically shot.  But I guess that's my fault.

Anyway, we need a movie crew, we need a graveyard visit, and etc.  Love you guys!

So I know I usually just pop in to give everyone a lift, that's my job.  And you all know it's from the heart, because I would not say it if it wasn't.  Right now I need a lift.
What happened to my confidence?  What happened to me?  I care about me more than other people half the time.  I have no compassion.  I have no...feelings.  I'm on pills for depression and every few months the pills stop working so I have to switch to a newer pill.  I feel worthless, like I can't even help myself.  And why am I telling you guys this?  I don't know.  I just needed to vent.  There's a helluva lot more I could say, but I won't for the sake of sanity.  I just can't put things into words right now, everything hurts so much that I've gone numb.  NUMB.
But otherwise, I'm so happy for and proud of all my friends (you guys).  I wish you all the best in the world and want you to succeed in everything you do.
Damn you Alejandro Sanz for making me a sappy bitch!

So I am totally bummed right now. Bummed because I used to be able to draw. Like draw awesomely good. And now I can't draw worth a shite. I tried to draw Tommy Rawhead (only the coolest villain around) and I sucked. And I can't put my fucking wallpapers up, even though I'm awesome at those, too. Becaue Deviantart is crazy as shite. But that won't stop me from making the fuckers.
Anyway, my feet are cold.

So I got some fanfiction submitted to a site that I've always wanted to see the name 'Calliope Foster' on and guess what?  They accepted!  In a few days time (or whenever they update) you will see the name Calliope Foster (AKA moi) on this site.  Yeah, that's right, go ahead, make fun of me, because I'm still obsessed with a television show that came out in the late nineties.  And that I'm in love with a man named Ezra.  Go ahead, laugh.
Anyway, school's so damn boring.  All I do is stand around and watch people doing things, it's awful.  Stupid and awful.  Oh well, I paid for it so I guess six more months of this can't be all that bad.

Hey whats up gents and chickies?  I know it's been a while since I rapped at ya (thank Jim Anchower for the line), but it's been good reason.
I haven't even had time to keep up with everyone, like usual.  In fact, it sucks that I'm so out of touch.  Anyway, just saying I'm back and I love you guys.

So I am totally in love with the show 'Heroes' on NBC.  Not only am I totally in love with it, I am totally enamored by the script, the actors, and the plot.  What could be fucking A better?  Each show gets better and fucking better, it's kind of like th first season of Lost, it's that fucking A good.I'm actually starting to learn Japanese like NUMAYA!  Means 'read this!', but say it with extreme enunciation on all the vowels.   Prounounce it like nEW-mAY-yAH!  It's actually two seperate words, probably, but that's how it's spelled pretty much phonetically.  For reals.
All right, I'm going to watch the hunger teen aqua squad I taped, so it'd better be as good and not a repeat.  But if Carl's in it'll be okay.

I know what you guys are thinking.  Believe me, I know!  I know like George Bush knows terrorists!  I can see into your thoughts.  You wanna know what you're thinking?  Well I'll tell you: "she's made two posts in a row?!  WTF!!!"

Am I right?  I fucking thought so.

So, I watched Judge Dredd today and laughed my ass off while putting acrylic nails on my little cousin Theresa (she's 17).  She didn't understand Sly Stallon (aka the 'Italian Stallion'), Armand Assante (aka the 'worst Odysseus ever'), and Diane Lane (aka 'can't act worth shit') were so hilarious to me.  Further I note: Judge Dredd could possibly be a number one movie crew movie.  Laces out, that's how sure I am.  The best part in that movie was that guy who's name escapes me, but he played Deuce Bigalow.  Oh and the supremely horrible effects.  That's not saying much.

Then a good, well scripted, semi-well acted movie came on, called the Devil's Advocate, and all said horrifying movie experiences were rectified.  Somewhat.  Just hearing Al Pacino describing God as an 'absentee landlord' is enough for me.

Watching Judge Dredd is like a horrifically large bowel movement.  You're ass is throbbing so you finally go to shit and it's painful at first, then you just let it slide, and finally, when it's over, you're pretty relieved.  Despite the stretching of the rectum and some unused anal muscles, everything will be all right again in due time.  As the bible says 'And this shall pass, too.'

Enjoy.
