My profile has gotten so long that it's annoying even me. Time to plop some of that into a sticky post. My first. *iz excited* What? I'm easily entertained. :D

Me in a nutshell... )

I love how you mentioned you rant about your job in your journal...I do the same thing with mine. pretty much 24/7, because that's how often the crap happens. problem is where I work, the clients are always angry, always unsatisfied, and that makes for a lot of angry and bitter co-workers. ugh.

it's nice to find people who AREN'T into slash/Wincest, and who respect and love Danneel and Genevieve like myself. :) there don't seem to be many out there, sadly. it seems like every fandom I've joined is taken over by the slash peeps, and I've been smoked out of one as a result. :(

Sometimes LJ is where I try to put my job into perspective. Writing it out helps me to step back and think about. It's difficult to lie to myself about my own part in whatever happened if I'm planning to post the event for others to evaluate. Kinda keeps me more honest. That, and I sometimes just need to vent. My job doesn't deal with angry clients (oh hon, I feel for you!) but stupid and unnecessarily cut-throat situations abound.

Yeah, that slash/wincest thing. Makes me feel like the red-headed stepchild sometimes. And I do respect the ladies. Even if i didn't, I kinda figure that if I love and respect the boys as much as I do, I should trust them to pick women who are good enough for themselves. If these ladies really do make them happy, then they're awesome! Did that make any sense? :D

definitely makes sense :)

yeah, the anger level at my job is really bad, which doesn't fit well for someone who is naturally happy and pleasant like me. :(

Well then, it's really good thing you've got places to let the stress out. Geez.

You can only imagine why I've been trying so hard to make headway on my book. I have to get out of there.

I don't blame you one bit. Hope your writing career takes off like a rocket!

Thanks! I do, too. I'm worried because a lot of first time authors are rejected for a while before anything takes a hit. I'm hoping it'll be different for me, because I'm not sure I can last another year in this place.

Heh. Yeah, I understand that. Hope you find what you're looking for... quickly! :D
