"You still think a varsity letter stands for moron..."

You know what I love? Falling asleep at 11pm and sleeping in until your boss calls you at 9:45am on your day off. Good times. That is the most I've gotten to sleep in awhile though. So delightful. Mmmm.

Poor Joe though, we were supposed to drink champagne and celebrate his exams but I fell asleep before he got home, when he ran to the store, when he got home, I was just so darned tired. And stressed I guess.

Now I've just eaten a big bowl of Boo Berry, ran to work for my boss, and am back home snuggling in bed watching Babs and Bobby in "The Way We Were". Not too shabby, right?

"Unfortunately you're sick and the gun nazis found out..."

Most ridiculously bad yet awesome movie:



So it's official I am uber broke. As in NO MONEY. As in a lot of money on my credit card and no money in the bank. As in my checks barely cover rent and some utilities. Now I am just begging for cash from my folks (which is a bitter pill to swallow) and hoping to get a paying acting gig so I don't have to become a hooker or sell my eggs.



Life isn't all depressing though. Joe passed his PhD Qualifying Exams. YAY! So all he needs to do is hook up with an advisor he loves and publish a thesis and he is done! So hopefully less stress more fun from now on. And now he's thinking it'll be more like 2 years than 3.

Maybe one day I'll be:



with:



and live in:



with this guy:



just kidding, this guy:



and get a "regular job" like this:



OR this:



Basically it'd be pretty sweet. Pretty sweet. *sigh*

"We went up to get a couple of drinks..."

So pretty great weekend.

My friend that I haven't seen since high school came to visit. We had a grand old time. Just catching up and laughing about all the old silliness. She and her hubby may be moving here to LA and just a street over from me. It would be good times, trouble. but good times.

Went to two friends' poetry reading. I was just blown away. Those two girls are so talented and brave it blew my mind. I am in utter awe of their talent.

Went to see Leslie and the Badgers Monday night-SO FREAKING AMAZING! She has this little twang in her voice like Emmy Lou Harris or LeAnn Womack but still it's like a cross of indie country bluesy music. Just awesome. LOVE LOVE LOVE them!



I'm seeing my good friends The Lexingtons perform tonight. They are amazing and everyone should come see them at 9pm Crane's Hollywood Tavern. Do it! Blair and I will be waiting for ya.



Been catching up with lots of DVRed movies. P.S. 'Panic in Needle Park' is crazy depressing. Nice work Pacino. Ha! 'Eagle Eye' was not that great. 'Stepbrothers' was awful. Just so pointless and dumb. I watched another movie this morning but I really don't remember what it was, isn't that terrible? I must have been half asleep or just thought it was really crappy but I do not remember for the life of me what it was. Ah well. EDIT: I remembered it was 'The Happening' which was not so happening. Pretty lame.

So here's the deal...

I'm a little down in the dumps about cash right now. I'm so super broke and going into debt due to all the business with my back. My parents are helping me out so much but I feel so financially constricted right now it's stressing me out big time. Is it wrong to wish for a sugar daddy to make it all better? Because I really do. But I want him to look like this:


not this:


I just feel like I need a bit of magic to help me here. Like a fairy godmother could come and make me get an amazingly well paid acting gig where I can get picked up by a fabulous agent and manager and then get famous and rich and be super talented awesome and win my Oscar. Is that really too much to ask?

I don't think it is.

I don't know what else I can do but try to let it not get me down. But it's just worrisome. I'm doing alright otherwise. I'm just longing to be able to travel to Europe this summer. My sister and I are trying to plan an amazing trip and I need to save money for it BUT with all the aforementioned not having it it's kinda stressing me even more because I am dying to go on this trip. We wanna do 2 weeks here:


and 2 weeks here:


How sweet would that be, right? I'm just going to keep plugging away. I just need to get more determined about getting myself an agent and getting my shit together. That way one day I will be able to pay off all my debt, pay back my parents, buy my castle in Ireland, save a million stray puppies, fund every charity ever, travel everywhere ever, eat delicious food and drink delicious spirits, and win me one of these bad boys:


One day...One day...

My newest obsession...

www.kingstonlounge.blogspot.com

Go there. Do it. Gorgeous photography. It sort of ties into my obsession of taking black and white photographs of buildings/houses/barns that are falling apart and wanting to learn how to develop them myself. *le sigh* One day I will. One day I will have my own dark room and develop my own prints. My only complaint of the blog is that of the grammar nazi I am and that is that there are (quite frequently) spelling/grammar mistakes, but I ignore them because the photos and stories are too interesting to me. So checkity-check it out!

"Beauty soap doesn't bubble!"

You know what? I think Clark Gable is the best medecine for a shitty weekend.



All I have to do is watch one of his movies (or even when I'm reading "Gone With The Wind" & "Scarlett")and he just puts me in a much better mood. What a fantastic all around man. Something about him. A certain je ne sais quoi.

This weekend has been a crappy crap shoot. I've basically been yelled at all weekend from both work establishments. Not by my bosses but by someone who wants/needs something from them. It's just exhausting being on your feet for hours, or running around for hours, or whatever-then have people rude, curt, bitchy, and just all around ass-hole-ish to you for hours. Ugh! I'm glad it's all done.

Also after being sick for 2 weeks my mom made me cave and just buy ge damn $90 antibiotics supposed to help get me well. Well let me tell you if they don't I'll be pissed off for sure. I mean $90 for 7 pills?! Ridiculous!

Not to stick in the bad mood, the good news from the weekend is that Mad Hatter March Hair creations has sold another hat! YAY! Check us out on Facebook and buy one. :D

Hope this week goes well for me and all of you, it seems everyone has been a bit off but hopefully this week will turn it around.
