Desperate need for excitement...

I'm bored. All the time. I don't know what it is really, I've got the life everyone would want, successful husband, anything I want I can have...but, I'm just bored. I was just watching Sex and the City movie again. I love Kim Cattrall's character Samantha. She's just divine. Samantha is the woman I used to be, except, not a dime to my name back in the day. I love the part where she walks in on her neighbor and he's standing buck naked in an outdoor shower. The line was terrific..."The moment Samantha met Dante, Samantha was in hell." Then, summarily goes on to gain so much weight to make sure she doesn't cheat on Smith (her boyfriend). "She eats so she won't cheat." I don't eat, which causes me to gain weight, because I don't want to come out from behind my computer desk and look at the outside world only to be reminded and remember all that I'm missing out on. The exclusive nightclubs, the fabulous people a...

Tired

I've had a long day I guess. It's one of those moments where you want toothpicks to keep your eyes open. Seems as my medication for my Thyroid is working better, I'm down 2 pounds again. Encouraging to see the weight come off. I can see the bone structure in my face better, it's not just 'fluffy'. Went through William Gibson's blog today. Interesting man. Odd though. He's the guy who coined the term "cyberspace". Funny that it takes only one person to describe the lifestyle of people all over the world. Sometimes, I wish I knew if he had thought up virtual worlds too. That's the ultimate cyberspace experience. Talking to someone half way around the world... Being a resident in cyberspace, you really don't notice much of the world around you that is outside and away from the computer. It's always "when's that next event". You always want to be a part of the "next event". You can buy a new car in...

Inauguration Day

First off...let's set this up right, so you can understand if I babble, it's because I've not slept yet. Last night I stayed up too late playing World of Warcraft. Ok, owning that bit of indulgence. I was amped to see the inauguration. So I stayed up for it. A lot of people are saying on the facebook tie-in with cnn.com video that this is a day that people will ask you where you were when it happened. I was on my couch wrapped up in a blanket, cheering for Obama and looking at Bush going "Buh-bye" in very overjoyed tones. I sat through watching the movie stars come in, and giggled a bit when I saw Dustin Hoffman and John Cusack...just thought that was way cool. But then came the Bush Blemishes...the drunkard daughters who have been a blight, right next to their father, on the image of our country. I think I might have thrown up in my mouth a bit to see those two. Just the thought of precious Sasha and Melia replacing that makes me overjoyed. Those two little ...

Superheroes

I found the quote...lol...I love this quote...this is where I am in my life right now. It's from Kill Bill Volume 2. It's the conversation between the infamous Bill and Beatrix Kiddo (a.k.a. "The Bride"). It's the Superhero Monologue/Conversation... Bill: As you know, l'm quite keen on comic books. Especially the ones about superheroes. I find the whole mythology surrounding superheroes fascinating. Take my favorite superhero, Superman. Not a great comic book. Not particularly well-drawn. But the mythology... The mythology is not only great, it's unique. Now, a staple of the superhero mythology is, there's the superhero and there's the alter ego. Batman is actually Bruce Wayne, Spider-Man is actually Peter Parker. When that character wakes up in the morning, he's Peter Parker. He has to put on a costume to become Spider-Man. And it is in that characteristic Superman stands alone. Superman didn't become Superman. Superman was born Superman....
