Okay so a little bit a griping, a little bit of 'wtf' and much more fun.

First, the griping, get it over with yeah? I hate, and I'm really meaning it now, when people only send you forwards and jokes and things. A few are okay, fun, brighten one's day ...but when all you get is forwards, it's not so good. If you can type my name in a little box, ( Read more... )

Dude, nice post!
No, really, and when I get back from breakfast (that IS a big deal, I've barely left my room for three days it feels like, but it's nice and foggy and cool outside so I'm thinking I can handle the walk without my head esplodin') I will e-mail you & we can chat. I've missed that.

That is totally new and weird information to me about the Stars on the Hollywood Walk. I had no idea about that. I have some immediate reactions to it though.

I forget (because I'm stupid like that.) who did get the oscar that year?

BB from breakfast soon, & no matter how I feel I'll check this for your response.

PS the room looks great!

Thank you, and I'm glad the fog is good for ya and you're feeling better. It's good to get out of the house...imagine how I was a few years ago with Bronchitis, couldn't leave the house for 2 weeks!

Anyway, I wasn't really referring to anyone in particular in regards to the forwards...because once in a while, yes, I like them, they're fun and interesting and give me a giggle. But a healthy mix of genuine concern and interest in another is very nice too.

The walk of fame info was very interesting, shadowhawck is going to e-mail me the rest of the paperwork process and what needs to be done just so I can look it over and see if it would be feasible to try and attempt. But the thing is....he has to ACCEPT the nomination and say that he will be there if the application is granted! That...even with the daunting task of a $15,000.00 fee, would be the most difficult. Bill...is very private and even his autographs are very hard to come by. So, I have a feeling that maybe someone tried to get him a star and either (a) the management company declined ( ... )

yeah, I need to start NOW planning for next May... gonna try for student aid again for this fall and if I need it for Spring, too, but I'd like (can't b'lieve I just said that, really) like to have a little regular work, too.

So far so good on staying upright and functional...need to work on the little book and on a paper to go with it, and out of that has come a research project (how do nurses learn/use/perceive language? I ask because so many many are bad spellers/grammarians/punctuators and yet every word reflects something about someone else's life, health, death... and every word relates to the trust one's licensing body puts in one as a licensed nurse. So wouldn't nursing schools and nursing bodies want to emphasize using language carefully? but they don't seem to. So now I gotta know. Busy busy busy...-grin ( ... )

Oh I know, one little weekend can take months of planning. Hell, one day takes months of planning in certain cases!

mmm, one project spawns another eh? Well, good luck with that. I think you're on the right track but...you know, what do I know about that? lol, Leave it up to the people who know about it I guess.

Yes, that award spurred on rant after rant...I'm bitter and angry about it and I don't think I need to explain why because people have eyes, they watch movies...and they so blatently handed out a retroactive Oscar when Bill Murray deserved it so much more.

and before I get into another rant on the subject and become completely boring, I'm going to let it rest at that, finish my book and get back to work.

mmhmm, busy busy busy

Mm, I really want to see it too! I'm curious as to who Ian McKellan plays....oh wait *trots over to IMDB, comes back*...ah, just as I thought, he plays Sir Teabing! Which kinda is the exact opposite of the description in the book. *shrugs* but OMG! I had NO idea that Paul Bettany plays Silas! Holy crap that'll be cool! *wants to go NOW ( ... )

Well, I can tell you now that at least one hour of last night when I got home was spent looking through the new Bead & Button magazine Ray had gotten me. And today, I got a link from Fire Mountain Gems, they're having a sale on turquoise and red coral beads, as well as others. I need to take a look.

Don't worry about going back to work, panicking, you'll only make yourself sick or something. Just do what you can in the meantime to become the writer and be able to stay at home. Then you won't have to panic.

You need to send me a printable version of your book for Ray, because he couldn't open it when he got it...and he needs to see it.

mmmm, the draw of videogames today is great because...I need to finish Kingdom Hearts (a PS2 game featuring characters from the various Final Fantasy games, coupled with Disney characters in an action/rpg format)...so I can start playing Kingdom Hearts II!! Same premise, only the main characters are older and there's new towns, including Port Royal and you get to fight Barbosa with Jack Sparrow at ( ... )

yeah, it's starting to make more sense. now's i think of it, before i realised i was getting actually sick and not just being a whiny baby, i watched (or had pass before my eyes) the evolution of DOOM track on the DVD... I had no idea. I mean, i had a little idea, but not really ( ... )

Mmmm, yes, Doom! I played Doom in high school with all the guys! I loved the plasma gun, i think that was my favourite...but if you want something different, but kind of like Doom, only slightly medievil and fun, try Heretic!! This one I enjoyed immensely, because you've got crossbows and things...and the ultimate multi-player weapon is the 'morph-ovum'. You can turn your opponent into a chicken and watch the feathers fly when you blast him as he's running around!! Much fun! I loved it ( ... )
