| Writer's Block: Super-human |
[Nov. 13th, 2009|03:41 pm] |
While there are plenty of super powers that would be marvelous, if I had the choice of only one, it would be a toss-up. Super inventive intellect would be great, because then I could simulate any number of super-powers simply by inventing a device for them. And make the world a better place in the process, enabling us to make technological leaps.
Yes, Virginia, you would get your flying car. And your personal jetpack. Mind the insurance.
Failing that I'd take the ability to reassign body mass. All of those terrifyingly skinny girls who whine because they can't lose weight? I could fix that. And I know entirely too many of us who would give just about anything (save strenuous diet and exercise, and some even do that to no avail) to lose some pounds. I could fix that too. Safe boobjobs, breast reductions, take a few inches off the hips, round out that ass, all in the snap of my fingers.
I'd be rich off the Oprah contract alone. And heaven help whoever pisses me off. |

For those vets out there who don't know what to say today, let's see your old boot photos and pass this one around. Can't be more embarrasing than mine...

I wasn't much of a sailor, but I did serve my country for years. Cheers to those of who gave our time, our service and in so many cases their lives for our country. |

As I consider a job in the restaurant industry again, I read this and am amused.

Ahhh, to lounge about trading bon mots with my coterie, smoking opium, engaging in casual sodomy. Where can I apply for this job...? |

| BWHAHAHAHAHAH! |

Yeah. This.

And then there's this, in which nerdlover references another article that really just gives me another reason (because I needed another one) to hate Twilight.
Twilight by Mormon Girl = 10% tithe = Prop 8 opposition money at the box office!
I don't hate you for being a fan. Lose respect for you, sure, but I don't hate you for it. Hate the genre, not the fandom.
Sparkly stalker mormon-type pretty boys who love the average girl... what a formula for success. It's okay to sneak in to watch a teenaged girlk sleep at night in her bedroom if you are a hundred or so as long as you don't have sex even though she's soooo delicious but we can't let the gays get married, oh heck no, that'll destroy the sanctity of marriage.
Sigh.
Onwards and upwards. Social evolution, hyah! |

Here's to the many friends, so many, many friends, who came last night to help me celebrate my birthday. The rain stopped, the mud was everywhere and it sure did get cold.
But the moon was full, and so was the house, as is my heart. I am truly blessed to have so many friends to come and help me celebtrate my 42nd year on this earth with me.
Thank you one and all. I am a very happy gal today. Thank you so much :) |

Hokay, most of the prep is done. The house is mostly done. Now it is a question of the weather permitting, getting the helping hands to pitch in on a variety of little tasks and watching folks come and have a good time.
Whew!
A few folks distant have expressed that they wish they could come, and I wish they could too. And a few have expressed that they'd like to get me something but aren't comfortable getting me a lot of things in the categories I mentioned because, well, it is hard to buy for the girl who shops for herself a lot.
So, with that in mind, as gauche as it may be, I'ma put this up again.
Truth be told it is a little pricey to throw one of these shindigs. Each element of it adds up, and as I'm not a corporation as yet and not charging anything, well, it all comes outta pocket. So if you are distant and want to do something for me on my birthday, just click on the button and throw a few bucks in the donation jar on the bar, electronically speaking. It'll be very appreciated and darn helpful... so if you haz the urge, here's the means.
Thanks! And Happy Halloween! |

Soooo tired. And I have to go to work tomorrow.
So much of the party prep is done. Much of it will need maintainence, as such things always do, but a whole mess of it is done, and now all I will have to do is slap it in place.
Good weather. Good luck. And a good time had by all.
Here's hoping. Seeya Saturday!
(Look- managable size!)

And if you are one of my many large and potentially violent guy friends, don't be surprised if I ask a favor of you through the night. You know me... |

Oh yeah...
Had a great time with Jesse and Nadia, cracking wise and doing Barry White. they will never look at chocolate the same way again. or Johnny Depp.
Ran around today and finished moist of my errands. geel good, hyuh! Tomorrow I need to figure out some jello stuff. go me.
But today I took a step towards being a real celebrity. Today I got my very own t-shirts.
You'll have to wait til tomorrow to see them. But suffice to say that seeing my image on a poster makes me happy.
Seeing my image on a t-shirt makes me deliriously happy.
This is gonna be a great party. And I gotta say, this is a great life.
It's been a while since I said it, but today warrants it.
It is unutterably cool being me. |

Okay, the weather forecast is looking slightly more positive. But I'm still nervous.
Please hear my plea O powers that be, I beseech of thee to hear my plea. Hundreds will soon pass through my door, and my house has not that much floor. So do your thing, that rainy deed. But not on my birthday I plead!
Here's hoping the universe accepts bad metered poetry as an acceptable offering. I'm willing to throw in a goat as well... |

Somehow I doubt he'll see it, but happy birthday to irrevocablyme. He's still walking the earth like Kane and working to find his place, but he's learning all of the time and getting stronger and wiser as he goes. And I think the horizon has finally made itself visible to him, and there's a goal in sight.
And as well, here's to vscountstrum. That house is a wonder and you should let your friends loose in it one party at a time to remodel and refurbish and redecorate it for you. I think it is going to be magnificent when you are done, and we'd love to help that come true. Meanwhile, happy birthday! |

Is it sad that I am already doing research as to what to name my Klingon bird of prey for Star Trek Online? Sadder still that I have 20 options already?
I haven't decided what to name my Constellation class yet. But it'll come to me. |

Post a picture of the actor you would like to portray you in LJ: The Movie and share why do you think this is a good match. Then post this in your own LJ and see what kind of discussion this generates.
I think Sela Ward. The first time I saw her I was struck by how pretty and elegant she was, and that impression remains.

And besides, she smirks like a champ.

And somehow I don't think it'd be appropriate to ask Elvira to play me. Kind of like asking Malcolm X to play Denzel Washington...

Discuss if you wish. |

Bored with your day? Then fill this out so that we can get to know one another better.
So many of us know one another from our writings alone, and I myself have the darndest time when I run into some of you in person, so spill the beans- talk about yourself!
1. Who are you to me? 2. How long have we known each other? 3. When and how did we meet? 4. Do you know who I have a secret crush on? 5. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it? 6. Describe me in one word. 7. What was your first impression of me? 8. Do you still think that way of me now? 9. What reminds you of me? 10. If you could give me anything what would it be? 11. How well do you know me? 12. When is the last time you saw me? 13. What's the most fun we've had together? 14. What's the last thing you remember us talking about? 15. Are you gonna re-post this so I can say some random things about you? |

A few folks have asked me what I would like for my birthday. This flatters me greatly, as honestly I'm not terribly accustomed to being gifted, much less asked.
If you wish to know, click the link. If not, pass on freely and I'll never know you were here.

That... was a nasty hijack virus.
Data backed up thanks to the external hard drive and a lot of work by my buddy Chris. Fresh reinstall took care of all of my old problems and now it's just a question of resetting thinghs the way I like them. Better computer have I, suddenly.
Thanks, hijack virus! |

I don't know how to make an LJ cut without Semagic, so I'm going to just post a link. Next week, not so lucky- too many people have told me they missed the invitation.

So come one, come all. If you are reading this you are invited, and welcome to bring friends as long as everyone obeys the rules (said rules being printed on the poster). I'm putting in some serious work this year, so I think it will pay off nicely for you partygoers, there is no cover charge and all I ask is the pleasure of your company on my birthday and a little love. Is that so wrong? I think not.
So come Halloween night, I'll seeya there! |
