I can be very anal . . .

This is going to sound ridiculous I know, but have you ever felt so strongly about something like a movie, an actor, a book, a song, a band...that you want the whole world to know that they are yours and you listened to them first...you know...come on...I know someone else has had this feeling before...My point here is that there's this guy that i LOVE!!! That I have loved for a good long while now, and he has had a video that they used to play at like 5 in the morning on VH1, but still...it's a very little known album, and except for that one song from the video, the rest of the songs on the album were hidden...or at least I liked to think so. Well...there's this one song on the album that is kind of special to me and the ex...and still can kind of get to me when I hear it...Last weekend when I saw Alfie, there was a preview for this new movie Closer, which I can't wait to see, but they are playing that one particular song through the trailer!!! I wanted to stand up and yell, "That's Damien Rice!!! I listen to that song all the time!!!" It really upset me, I screamed all the way home to Josh about how it was my song, my album, my guy...and how there are so many of the albums at CD Exchange that people got rid of, and now they're going to be clambering in lines to buy it back!!! Whew!!! So glad i got that little bit of insanity off my chest...so now that you know, that I knew about this guy before the movie comes out, I guess I can let you in on it...

Damien Rice...the album is "O", and the song is "The Blower's Daughter"...the song from the video is "Volcano".

Now go ahead...steal my favorite album in the whole world!!!

Gross! You totally put that song on the CD you sent me for my birthday and I listen to it all the time. I don't get what the hell he's trying to say - or the message of the song - but you've had sex to that song. Haven't you? Now when I hear it I'll think of you and him having sex. Screw the message. Why do you do this to me Lizzy? What IS the message in that song?

Yes, I have that possessive feeling. And, for the record, Steve Poltz is MINE. Mine, mine, mine. I love Steve Poltz, okay? Hands off of Steve Poltz.
I never said I had sex to it!!! Sheesh!!! I don't know what kind of message you're looking for...the certain guitar playing ex just used to sing that part about "I can't take my eyes off of you..."

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
