God I am busy. Even with all the napping…and magazine reading…and looking at everyone’s facebook status.

When I’m not doing the above I’m working (content writing, market research, reminding, and now minor accounting). Or I’m seeing a movie with my boss cause his brain needs to expel the drainage of systemizing (sp? wtf internet…that’s totally a word!) something new.

When I’m not working I’m making feeble attempts at being social. Okay maybe not that feeble as I meet a lot of people all the time, both IRL and online. I suppose the reason for attaching to feeble-ness stems from sense of guilt about not always staying in real contact as much as I would like. I happen to “meet” a lot of guys (cuz yeah I’m pretty, have boobs, and I am a damn fine conversationalist). Men, while fun aren’t exactly my target market. And most of the girls I know In Real Life…are all kind of weird. Like me. Most aren’t as glamor obsessed as I am. Some don’t care for boys…yeah. But I make them laugh so that’s good :)

I said this would be brief didn’t I? Well I kind of lied…though not meaning to. God…I am getting off track. Better wrap up. When I’m not swatting at 100 busy bee thoughts I’ll get back to you.

Producing regular content is a lotta fun…and a nice challenge…and sometimes a GODDAMN PAIN IN THE ASS!

*deep breath* phew! okay. lemme esplain…
See, I love creating content. Producing content that you folks want to and/or enjoy seeing is a interesting and welcome challenge. Learnin a whole lotta good stuff here. What bugs me is the finishing, uploading, and maximizing part…all the crap I gotta do to make sure it all gets out there and loads and has got all the tags and shit that takes forEVER and I’ve already just spent 2 hours making some decent stuff. Here’s the breakdown.

Joy: Recording a fun vid for youtube.
Challenge: Timing it just right
Pain in The Ass: uploading it for 1 to 2 hours each time :P

Joy: Writing an inspired and witty blog post for wordpress
Challenge: formatting in an nice readable way.
Pain in the Ass: getting photos, finding links, adding tags, categories and THEN publishing it…phew!

Joy: Taking a random self portrait for flickr.
Challenge: making adjustments in photoshop
Pain in the Ass: adding color changes, filters, getting rid of bullshit, sizing, saving and THEN uploading to flickr to then add titles, descriptions, tags, and send it to my groups.

Joy: Feedback and suggestions from REAL friends and new interesting people.
Challenge: working the lovely constructive criticism I get from you folks into my processes in a timely manner.
Pain in the Ass: spam, skeazy internet stalkers, and poopy comments.

Joy: Meeting new people virtually and in the “real” world.
Challenge: finding those new people on facebook so I can add their “friendship”.
Pain in the Ass: not hearing from some of them for weeks…*sigh*

Joy: sharing stuff from the REAL world
Challenge: linking stuff from the REAL world to the virtual world
Pain in the Ass: lighting…

Joy: The Internet (”that muppets video made my day!”)
Challenge: The Internet (”um…what’s the code for bullet lists again?”)
Pain in the Ass: The Internet (”oh no you did NOT just go down Internet!!!”)

Joy: ideas from my ever creative brain.
Challenge: producing from my ever creative brain.
Pain in the Ass: making sense of my ever creative brain.

Really though I am not stopping. It is ultimately too much fun and super interesting. Besides your continued feedback makes it all worth it in the end so I get back to drawing table again.

The ole immune system has been freakin out a touch…

no it’s NOT swine flu…

it’s just a touch of mono…that’s right…mono…actually epstein barr…a lovely little virus that likes to snuggle in one’s body forever and occasionally gets a bit active. it mostly makes me sleepy but sometimes it’s a touch, flu-ish and painful. meh.

I figured I would try to sleep myself out of the relapse today and had a mighty nap. but then I woke up to pee.

interesting stuff huh? yeah, my life is weird.

anyhoo…I’ll get back to it…whatever “it” is at the moment :)

Happy Turkey Day to ya…uh…tomorrow :)

Oh yeah…coffee with this guy, my friend and biz mentor.

Got an awesome recommendation on a book too: The Six Pillars of Self-Esteem

Team Jacob all the way: He’s got great abs. Runs around all athletic like. He’s exotic. He’s great with machines.

Meanwhile Edward gets all whiny about everything. He won’t let the love of his life make her own damn decisions. He’s the prince of Mopey Town.

And does anyone else notice the AMAZING irony that Edward can’t read Bella’s mind at all?

Dude, welcome to planet earth. NO guy can read his girlfriend’s mind…as wonderfully convenient that would be.

And by “big” I don’t mean his member. I mean rather reputation and business. Owns companies and runs businesses, that kind of thing. Men who do important things and make stuff happen.

Anyway…Girls, do NOT ever waste their time. Cause they don’t have any really.

This point was hammered home yesterday for me when I whimsically dragged Anomaly Boy with me an hour out of town to drop off something for one of our hot girl friends. Not a happy boy he was driving to or from.

I am normally a good girl about asking for his time but I actually though this might be enjoyable for him.

Wrong.

Oh well…lesson learned.

I really enjoy technology. For the most part. Lately however all sorts of things have been showing signs of entropy. My stereo speakers, my phone, other peoples phones, even new devices I am learning to use that are part of my job.

I have this tendency to get real depressed when things start breaking down. When the shit I want to use and am happy to employ starts sputtering and dying shortly after I “played” with it.

It’s total crap. And I’m not sure what to do about it. After all I’m not a tech geek, I just use this stuff. I’m also not at all rich or even have much money for replacements or “servicing”.

Sometimes, I just want to cry over my dying devices…

I have been experiencing an epic fail of communication with a boy I like. Texts don’t go through, email gets unanswered, his iphone kicks my ass right into voicemail.

This makes for a very pissed girl.

For all our technology, faster than light supposedly, I sometimes consider just send a letter via the pony express since I hardly get that faster than light reply that I want…

So I decided to take a little day off from the every day recording and posting. Mostly because REAL life has been happening a bit more than virtual and I’ve actually had some physical labor to do without any of my devices on hand. That’s how it goes sometimes – the balance between these two worlds shifts and one finds they are spending slightly more time in one realm before then get back to the other. I like to think of this kind of life in mythological terms as you can see…makes LIFE in general a lot more interesting and artsie :)

So I have another story to tell for later so please keep posted! Here’s a teaser: It has to do with banks and getting them to do what you would like, and that is keep their hands off your money and just watch it a while.

So I had my camera with me to record but not my laptop. As much as I love the thing I don’t like carrying it with me EVERYWHERE. Besides I was too busy trying to see how well my new faux tan looked under the atrocious restroom lighting of Target and Kmart. Hooray for self tanners that don’t suck!

Kmart is so creepy. Even without the florescent lighting. It was creepy when I was 7 and it’s still creepy. I’m surprised they still exist especially in this economy. No one ever seems to be there except lonely shop girls…

Anyhoo that is what I did yesterday. As you can see not terribly thrilling.

BUT STAY TUNED!
