Nervous
Today is the last day of this quest for a long term project. The process for this project has been unusual, frustrating, and a wonderful educational experience. If all I walk away with is what I’ve learned then I’m light years ahead of the competition. This is a good thing.
The producers have compensated us (there are six of us here) for the audition, if that gives you an idea of the...

I was just told, by an expert no less, that when I read this part I must ”try not sounding so sexy”. HA! That’s like asking sugar not to be sweet!

It’s depressing isn’t it? I should introduce you to my best friend, he has that same comment. The two of you would get along famously. :)

You gave me a flash back: “why am I awake?” *3am making black coffee to dump whiskey into in the middle of Chicago almost six years ago*
I’m sorry for bringing you back there. Unless it was a flash back of the exciting kind.. then I take full credit! =P

If only..

send them my way. by the time they leave the conversation they’ll be questioning themselves in a manner akin to someone who has had their brain removed, whipped with an egg beater, and poured back in through their ear.
I wish I could have. Actually, I wish you could have been part of this ‘discussion’. It would have...

I don’t usually like the task… but today it has become therapeutic.

My night
Too many drinks during dinner. Too many after dinner. Working on more in the hotel room. Want to talk to someone. No one here now. No one to call.

Now no one wants to play with me.
I’m sitting in a room have a heated discussion about the multiverse theory with six people of varying educational backgrounds. When they all rejected this theory and started telling me why I was an idiot for believing it I said,
“To hold to one assumption and exclude any and all contradictory data is not science. That’s politics.”
They’re all in another room further...

Ride of a lifetime = listen to the man speak
It’s been said that when faced with one’s own mortality one will grab on to anything to stay alive.
Ima grab this mug of coffee, add a shot of espresso, and hang on for the ride of a lifetime.

28 hours
and I’m still awake with no hint of slowing down. What the hell is happening to me? Alien abduction.. or possession? GAH!
I have to report to an all day appointment in two hours. Shower, breakfast… yeah, I suppose there will be time to sleep when I die.

Please, don’t ever feel bad about “unloading” on me. That’s one of the things THIS friend is here for.
I’m a little slow to respond sometimes, I’m sorry. xoxo

Truthful Tuesday
For the first time in my life I’m completely baffled by the decisions I must make. I usually have the process under control. Not this time. The stress it’s causing is going to kill me.
Yes, cryptic paragraph is cryptic.
Adding to that, I still have the crazy stalker harassing my life. That solution is a simple one though. Granted, it involves cement and a large body of water....

More coffee please
I’ve been up since 2:00AM working. Yes, working. A video conference call with a potential off-world client. It was our first meeting so it started with the usual professional pleasantries. That is, until I noticed he was putting bourbon in his tea. Game changed!
The conversation soon lightened to hilarious status. Especially the part about the Queen. I so hope I get this assignment.

A trip to the farmer's market yesterday..
..landed yellow squash, red bell pepper, broccoli, celery, snap beans and jalapeno stuffed sausage into my crockpot this morning. I added some curry powder, a little sage, ground peppercorn and some sea salt. I’m patiently waiting for dinner but I’m a little nervous about creating food on the fly like that. It rarely works like I imagined and my poor kids suffer through eating it. I...
