Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

paperdol, he's definitely deserving of a MarkTwainesque "Dear Sir; You may be right at that" comment. Not sure though if you should use your LJ identity to do it with.

Not to mention that instead of condemning =you= for deciding that your memoir was worth making into a book, it's the agent and publisher he should be castigating primarily. Inasmuch as they seem to be right that Other People would be interested in reading your stories, I think we can get a good idea of just how far up jheaton's ass his head is.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Yeah. I'm just sort of amused. I've no idea what to do with the critique of not being interesting, or being unlikeable.

I'm okay with that.

Having someone I respect call me a shitty writer is about the only thing that would send me to bed weeping for a few days.

Being unlikeable and boring? Shit, I say that about myself all the time.

There are going to be a bunch of Irish Draught's in Wayne in September.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

ICompletelyON, eep! Recruiter interview today, job interview (with a different recruiter) on Friday.

It's not as good as (and rather more stressful than) good Thai, but it is most definitely good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In random news, I bought this skirt over the weekend. It's not actually flattering (kind of "My hips. Let me show you them."), and I think the colors might actually be ugly (it's mostly purple and brown), and yet? I love it. LOVE.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

At any rate, the point is that [she] presents herself as a rather unpleasant person, and generally speaking I prefer not to spend time with such people...

Good luck with that, Mr. Heaton. He appears to have sailed right by the point.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So if I was at Stanford Medical center about a half hour ago (To get a library card, not for anything medical), and saw a woman dressed in a very frilly white blouse and a very neon blue full length taffeta skirt rolling a harp down the street, do I win a prize for weird Monday sighting?

'Cuz I did.

Today is all sorts of weird in my inbox t /vague

Also, annual checkup+vaccs+ 10 days of boarding for a diabetic cat costs as much as my plane ticket did. Hmph. Good thing he's cute and I'm solvent.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

waves pompons for JZ's interviews

That's an... interesting review, paperdol. He is definitely not my beautiful cake, since he can't seem to look below the first layer of the surface. Hrm.

Irish Draught Horse being used as a vaulting lesson horse!

Ooooh, pretty. Riding my bike has made me miss riding horses.

AWESOME.
