"I'm aaaaaaaall grown up"

So can I go back to being a kid? Cuz that would be awesome. At this point in my life I can't decide if I hate my job or I just hate working. I can't say I hate working in general because I've had jobs I didn't really consider jobs because it was fun. Stressful and intense, but fun.

I read a super sad story yesterday and it has dumped me into a rather bleak out look on life. I think that all sad books should have a massive stamp on the front that says "Tragedy." Then I could know which books to avoid.

Do you want a sammich?

Everyday when I leave work there is always someone standing at the parking lot exit with a cardboard sign. Most of them say differing things but the common theme is that the people need help. It always makes me feel awkward because I feel like I should give them something to help out, but I never have anything with me. Except today. Today I had an uneaten sandwich from my lunch. I gave it to her. It was one of the more awkward things I've ever done. I held it out the window and asked if she wanted it. She seemed pretty excited. I don't really understand why, but it made me happy that I could help someone.

That experience also made me decided that I am going to join the Terry Pratchett cult, and every time someone asks for help I will give them one of his books. Which are, obviously, the literature handed out by members. Like the "Watchtower", only better. One of the saddest things I was ever heard was the day someone told me Terry Pratchett has Alzheimer's.

It seems so wrong that such a brilliant man would have to suffer with one of the worst diseases. There is no cure for Alzheimer's.

And this was supposed to be a fun, light hearted and slightly witty post. There goes that idea.

On a completely unrelated note I have learned something new today. Never leave gel pills sitting in a hot car. It's just not a good idea.

You can run, but you can't hide.

From responsibility. It will find you. The longer you run the harder it will hit.

A true statement brought to you by someone who has been running for a long time and is not looking forward to the comeuppance I am about to receive.

The worst thing about being an adult is that it is your fault when things don't get done on time. I can no longer blame my parents, my teachers, friends or siblings if my life is falling apart. It's all me. Not exactly an easy thing to admit.

I originally decided to stop blogging because I felt it would leave me with more time to work on my manuscripts. That was a joke. I tried... who am I kidding. I never even opened the documents. I looked into my writing folder and promptly fled. I couldn't handle the failure that is innate in writing. The days spent tied to a chair, fingers flying across the keyboard in a desperate attempt to drag something out of my brain. I don't know of any other career area that has the same level of epic failure. Maybe art, or acting. Those areas have the same problem. An over abundance of people trying to break-out, break-in or just break something.

Makes it difficult to do anything worth while.

Plus the number of horrible books that have been published makes me sick. I can't believe some of the crap that is out there. It's ridiculous. And the fact that some people like it is mind blowing. I think everyone should take a rhetoric class, maybe then the level of crap would decrease (in my happy world it does).

So starting sometime later this week I am going to be doing book reviews, mostly because I had a friend as me to give her a list of books that are worth reading. And to go along with the list I am going to give her reviews so she has an easier time choosing.

Getting caught really hurts and may end in death.

In my defense

My roommate has accused me of reading more than 100 books this semester. This is a lie, as such I am going to list all the books I've read since start of the school year.

1. Dead Witch Walking
2. The Good, the Bad, and the Undead
3. Every Which Way But Dead
4. A Fist Full of Charms
5. For a Few Demons More
6. Once Bitten, Twice Shy
7. Dhampire
8. The Atlantis Complex
9. Radiant Shadows
10. Sunshine
11. Once Bitten, Twice Shy
12. Chalice
13. The Blue Sword
14. Blood Price
15. The Outlaw Demon Wails
16. Blood Rites
17. Dead Beat
18. The Immortal... Or something like that, it was bad.


Short Story
1. A Study in Scarlet
2. Prom Dates From Hell

That is not any where near 100 books, it's not even a quarter of what she thought. Yes this post was entirely to vindicate myself.

Twiddiction and Buffy.

Or better known as the "scary twilight fans from hell" the twiddicts. The Twilight Addict, get it? Hahaha. Yeah it isn't very funny. Those girls are freaking scary as hell. Teenagers in general should be avoided. I have decided to get a cross necklace. Teenage girls are evil incarnate, right? Therefore it should work to repel the evil before it can bitch slap.

At work today one of the maintenance guys, they're currently replacing the carpet, was talking about how Eclipse was rated the worst movie so far. His daughter freaked. Apparently she went online and started showing him reviews to prove that this movie was in fact the best. Which it is. Not like it took any work to make it better then the previous two. Seriously. Twilight is sooooo overrated. If I was Bella, which will never happen because I have a brain, I would have left Edward on his sorry ass and found someone else to turn me. After being turned I would beat Jacob into submission and rule both men. Then I would have the best of both worlds. Best story ever! Oh and I would totally kick Buffy's ass if she showed up. Just saying.

I had a disturbing moment a few years ago (shocking). One of my (former) friends compared me to Bella. At the time I had a huge crush on this guy and was freaking about it. I can still clearly remember what she said. "He just doesn't understand that you will always love him. You're like Bella, you will always be there for him." Her words were mildly disturbing.

Until recently I hadn't even thought about it. Under more scrutiny I realized why it bothered me.

1. Bella has no personality and really pisses me off.
2. I so didn't love that guy.
3. Bell sucks!
4. When had I ever said anything about always being there?
5. Bella pisses me off.
6. I know I was bitching, but I wasn't asking for advice.
7. Why on earth would any self respecting women compare herself, or her friends, to Bella Swan! WHY! I don't understand.

Comparing someone to Bella is like telling them they are vapid and obsessed with dead things. Along with being clingy and having no self respect. Grr. So annoying.

I really wish that Buffy and Twilight would merge so that Buffy could kill Edward's ass. Then the story would be interesting.
