Roller Coaster
WOW… today was one hell of a roller coaster ride. The review I was all worked up about was anti-climactic. I didn’t even get to say 1/2 the brilliant things I rehearsed in my head. I didn’t even talk about my disdain for my job. Or my web 2.0 ideas. I basically went through the [...]

In this post from I Hate Your Job, Chuck writes:
It only takes a few sips of strychnine to ruin a good thing.
Have you ever had a co-worker or boss bring you down with their own dissatisfaction?
To which I answer a resounding *YES*!! It’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. Maybe because I’ve been [...]
Holy Dead People, Batman
I watched half of tonight’s episode of Lost from between my fingers. This was one of those “creepy” episodes and it didn’t disappoint.
To recap, we get another Locke flashback. We learn the details of his birth: unwed teenage mother gets hit by a car and delivers baby early. Is considered a miracle child. Richard Alpert [...]
Freewriting from Atlanta
I shoulda gone to the gym this morning. Instead I chose to sleep. Last night was super duper fun. That’s right–super duper! We ate. We drank. We played cards. I won.
The restaurant we went to last night was called Eclipse di Luna. Great for tapas.
I feel like these freewrites are a broken record, but as I [...]
Really?
I read a blog post* yesterday that said in order to determine whether a story is good enough to sell (it was a post about freelance writing) you simply have to guage people’s reactions to it when you tell them. If they say “Really?” it’s something that might be publishable/useable.
I wish I had saved that link [...]
Freewriting Frenzy
Monday. Ugh. I considered calling in, but that will just throw off my productivity for the rest of the week. Plus, I’m pretty sure I can’t spend another day on the couch. I wasn’t even tired last night so I took some Tylenol p.m. I went to sleep, but it wasn’t exactly “quality” sleep. Oh, [...]

In addition to being a *super cool* Gen X movie starring Steven Dorff, “So fucking what” sums up how I’ve been feeling lately.
See, I’ve been going through this “phase” of self-reflection. Whether or not it is tied to my need to start a blog remains to be seen. But, here’s the thing: I [...]
Wake Up and Write!
If there’s any merit to the whole “write before you’re really awake” idea, this morning should be a doozie.
I’m working on day 3 (or is it 4?) of insomnia. I’m so tired I can’t sleep. Maybe I’ll catch up this weekend. Yesterday was pretty productive, though. I need to try to continue [...]
