What does it take to dissuade a pursuer? I am at a loss of what to do. Like I said on Carlo's blog, I am single of my own volition and I wish everyone could just get that. I am just so mad at guys right now. Seething.
There's this one guy in my office who stares at me without any shame or, I don't know. Openly,, like its the most natural thing in the world but he is not even smart enough to string a sensible sentence together. It is clearly a struggle for him to even say "Good morning." Sheesh, give me some credit.
This other guy, my cousin, cousin! I mean, I am a Christian and even if I wasn't, incest is wrong on so many levels or if only because the kids are mutants. (See all the scary movies that involve mutant children of incestous parents; Wrong Turn, Texas Chainsaw Massacre e.t.c) I don't know any other way to say NO and I find myself wishing I wasn't a girl, which is wrng because being a girl totally kicks ass. I have been rude, mean, I have decribed in detail my sexual exploits with other guys, I have told him how unattractive I find him but nothing seems to work. I am at a loss.
Then my boss, I knew it was coming but I still wasn't prepared for it. I can't quit, atleast not for another 2 months and I can't sue, it's just too much trouble and I am told it's expected and that's how he shows he likes you and that's how he is with all the new girls and I find my self wishing I was pregnant coz he does not hit on my pregnat workmate. It sucks!
On a lighter point, there's is this one guy I really like and no he doesn't work in my office. He is the only reason I am not completely disgusted with the male specie.
Should women put up with overtures from their bosses coz it's how it's alway been done?

The siblings.
Arnold, the brother. Looks nothing like this now, he is tall and I look 5 years old standing nest to him.
Doris, the sister. She is also tall and huge and no one can believe we are actually related.
PICTURES!!!
Before I post these pictures, I must relate a story. This happenned yesterday as I had coffee with Ernest. This dude walks up to him and says, I will paraphrase because I have shit for a memory, I love your work and I wish I could read t everyday!
Now I felt, like, awesome!! I mean, I was hanging out, chilling with this guy who other guys, strangers love. You could be forgiven for thinking its me he was propping, ie, giving props.
Now on to the pictures.
Its taking too long so I will upload them later.

Funniest thing
I have just stumbled upon the funniest story, before this I wanted to live in New York, now I want to move there tomorrow. It's a funny post on this guy's blog, www.blog.myspace.com/astamm78 check it out. I have copied the post itself and a few funny comments.
My brief career as a kidnapper... Current mood: curious Category: Life
Not sure why this memory popped into my head recently... this happened to me a few years ago. I was working as a designer way the hell out in Oak Brook, and living in Logan Square. I had left work early to meet up with my older brother (at the time living in Lincoln Park, on Diversy, near Lincoln) for a taco dinner, and from there we were heading over to the Vic Theatre to see Tom Petty. Now, I can't remember the name of the taco place, but it was right on Diversy, and we grabbed a booth by the window in their small dining area (really small, like maybe no more than three booths) and quietly made small talk while we ate our tacos. I vaguely recall staring out the window at people walking by, when one lady walked by, looked over at me through the glass, waved, and then kept on walking. My brother asked me if I knew her, which of course I didn't, and we kept on eating.About two minutes later I head the door chime and that same lady walked in, came right up over to our table and starting talking to me.Now, this conversation was totally off the wall, but some highlights of what she said to me are;
She felt a deep, 'spiritual' connection to me as she walked by
Apparantly, she heard a psychic voice in her head as she walked by (my voice, she explained) telling her that she needed to reconnect with Jesus. Mind you, I've never been known as one to wield any sort of extra-sensory powers.
She wanted me to be a guide on her spiritual quest back to Jesus and thereby getting her life back on track (I'll take this moment to point out that in addition to not being psychic I'm also not a religous person)Anywho, I tried to politely explain to her that I made no such connection, that I couldn't give a rat's ass if she reconnected with Jesus, and no, I wouldn't offer her guidance on this journey. But she kept persisting until I got a little mad and asked her to quit bothering us.And then is when things took another turn, she looked startled, and then angry and then demanded to know where I was taking her! I asked her what the hell she was talking about, but she kept rambling on about calling the police and how kidnapping is a crime, until I finally couldn't take any more, got up and walked out to my car, which was parked right out front, which I thought would hopefully leave my brother to deal with this situation since I was waiting for him to finish eating anyways.But no, she followed me out side, yelling the whole time, "Are you kidnapping me!? Are you kidnapping me? Why are you kidnapping me, I'm calling the police!!"Now, I've always been under the impression that if you actually have to ask someone if you're being kidnapped, then no, you probably aren't. Also, how is it possible for one person to kidnap somebody without ever laying a hand on them? And not only that, if she truly did think I was trying to kidnap her, why did she keep following me around? I just don't know.So I got into my car and turned up the stereo until she got tired of beating on my windows, demanding to know why I was kidnapping her and wandered off. Minutes later my brother came out of the taco place, laughing his ass off and refering to me as the 'kidnapper' for the remainder of the evening.It is possible that there is a moral to this story, but it has always escaped me.
NOW, THE COMMENTS;
So I am walking past this man and he stops me and asks for some change. Not an uncommon thing by any means. I politely say that I don't have any and continue walking. But the next thing I know I hear "Brace Yourself" and the man jumps onto my back and asks for a Piggyback ride. I, myself, am a little essentric so I tell him that I can only take him to the end of the block because that is where I must go home.
then a few weeks later I was at an improv show and the performers had asked what the strangest thing that had happened to them in the last month was. I shot my hand up. filled them in on some of the details, and they made a small improv musical about the events from start to finish.
SOMEONE ELSE SAID:
This reminded me of my own experience with a so-called crazy homeless person. I ventured down off of my small town mountain into the big city, intimidated by all of the people and traffic, as usual. I was driving in downtown Sacramento, lost as can be, driving the wrong way on a one-way street. As soon as I discovered my error, I paused at a corner waiting for a break in the traffic so I could turn onto another street into the proper direction, when a homeless man came up to my car and started beating on my window. I tried ignoring him, but he persisted and was yelling really loudly at me. I was completely freaking out, but the traffic was heavy and I couldn't go anywhere, so I rolled down my window about 1/2 an inch to hear what he was yelling. He was yelling, "Get out of the way, lady or you are going to get mowed down by the light rail train!" (and before you ask, yes, I am blonde).
LASTLY:
That's pretty funny. It reminds of this one time a dude tried to kidnap me after I asked him to spiritually guide me to Jesus. He chickened out though, and hid in his car listening to some really loud Dan Fogelberg.

Achievement!!
Congratulate me!! This is the shortest I have ever taken in between blogs, even I can't believe it. The reason for this post is to ask; how do I link to other blogs from mine?
In other news, I opened a myspace account and I can't exactly figure out what to do with it. I mean, it's supposed to be fun and amazing but so far the only thing I am enjoying on it are the games.

LIFE!!!
I finished campus, now life begins! I already have a job temping for my cousin who is going on maternity leave and the bosses, who are Isreali, have asked me to stay on. I guess my ife has began, much sooner than I expected, I must say. I work from 8 to 6 so, already, I don't have a life, imagine that. I dont really have alot else going on, which is sad considering my life used to be jampacked with interesting stuff. Now all I do is sleep early, wake up even earlier but I must say, thanks to Ernest, I am watching some good movies and reading interesting books.
WATCH POSEIDON!!1
OK,ciao. Will post a few pictures of me at various weddings next time around 'cause it seems like everyone is getting married.

HELP!!!
I am not going to make my usual excuses for being so lost simply because I have neither the inclination nor the time.
Straight to why I am posting. Doos anyone else feel like they need something more? Okay, I realise that that is very cryptic but allow me to explain. For the past 80 minutes I have been browsing my usual list of blogs, big ups to; baz, degstar, inktus, carlo, savage, rich, raymond, iwaya, one and anyone else I have neglected to mention yet you are positive you are in this group, it's only because I have the worst memory imaginable. As i browsed i realised that I know only about 5 of these bloggers personally, now I don't mean to sund needy but I need more. I wonder about these people, who are they, what are they into, are they happy, do they have a close network of friends, are they loners with alot of time on their hands? Too many questions, not enough grey matter? I feel that even though the net has given me the chance to be a part of these peopl's lives when , in all probability, I never would have been, it has also kept me away from them. I am not a atalker, by the way, I just feel I need to connect with virtual friends of mine with whom a rapport has been established. Mostly, I just feel like a voyeur because I can read all about what happens in these people's lives and their take on so many issues close to my heart yet this is not reciprocated because I don't blog as much which is no one's fault but my own. I realise this is turning into a boring insight and that I am mostly to blame for the state of things but I still have the right to rant, once in a while.
I would like to know what you all think of cyberspace and the distance it creates and diminishes all at once.
See you in space.

ooooops she did it again
I loved that movie. White chicks.
I have been, just now, reading all my other friends blogs and I must say I am emabarrased. My sister said to me the other day, she said," your blog is so boring that you have to refer us to other people's blogs." Can you believe her? Coz I can.
So her I am again with nothing particular to say except maybe I hate doing exams. I have 3 more left and then I am going to be a maid or Bridesmaid if you will at my uncles wedding. Now we all thought my uncle would be a bachelor forever so this is a big event for the family. So big so that My uncle fron Canada and his Wife and sons are coming to attend it. I tell you we are excited. Now I know that bridesmaids dresses anre usually revolting and ours are not much different but seeing that I would look good in a rag, this is not an issue.
Carlo I cant believe I am not going to see you for so long. I wonder if you even still read my blog or it you gave up.
I thought it would be longer till I wrote again but since we are on the verge f the new year I guess its long enough.
Now I am positive that the nxt time I blog will be in the new year. On that note, Merry christmas and a happy new year to the blogsphere.

It must be a year since I last posted on this blog and I know it souns as if all my posts start out the same but I cant help it if I am shit at committment. Ask my Mom. Anyway, the real reason I dont write is because I am anot as funny as I would like to think and I dont lead as interesting a life as I would like to so having said that dont be surprised when you check my blog out and fing I havent written in a while. Get used to it. Ok on to more serious topics. This week I read a wonderful book called This much I know or something like that. anyway it is written by Wally Lamb and sincr then everyother book I have read has falen so short I am considering not reading anmore.

Back ups
so yesterday my lover asked me if i believed in backups. I said yes, which was probably not the best answer but the truth none the less.
Here is what I think, I want to get married no matter what and if I cant find Mr. Right then I plan on marrying one of my friends or someone I am really close to. I am lucky that the person I am with is the person I would ultimately marry coz he is the person I am most comfortable with.
I tried to explain to him that one's having a backup does not necessarily reflect badly on on's lover. So he said that implies not having faith, and I must admit he's onto something there but that is the nature of relationships, how mush faith one has does not usually make the relationship las any longer than it would have.
There is this movie I watched where a man and a woman made a pact that if neither of them were married by 30 then they would jump off a bridge and drown. I consider this extreme, they should have just married each other thus saving two lives.
My lover made a reference to 'Friends', which if you have seen, also condoned this in the episode where Phoebe has a back up and a back up to her back up. I am not saying that because a tv show condones it is right, I am just trying to prove a point since tv is an imitaion of life.
Now I know you all have your own opinions so feel free to post a comment. I want to know what u think. Ciao

Ray
I watched Ray on thursday. I rather liked it except it was a bit on the long side. I got home at 11pm yet I had told my mom I was going to get home at 9.30pm. Anyway back to Ray, you have probably heard everyone raving about Jamie Fox's performance, but I have to say he outdid himself. I really did not have hope in him but he disproved me when I watched the movie. Another actor who did really well was the boy acting as the young Ray, he was really good.
I also watched The Incredibles, finally. It had the best animation or graphics I had seen in a really long time and it had a very nice and involving plot. If you haven't seen it, rent it and see it.
O.k enough with my wannabe criticism. Other than watching movies this whole weekend, I can't say I have done anything interesting. If something comes up, I will keep you posted. Ciao.

I KNOW
Ok, hate on me. I dont mind. OK I know its my fault. I was just talking to Raymond and he said I blog annually which is right. I have blogged only twice probably in two different years. I will try to blog monthly starting today. So I started working with my Godfather again and that is why I can now blog regularly.
Now I dont know what to say, there is nothing new happening in my life or atleast nothing worth talking about.
Raymonds blog makes mine look like the doodlings of a 2 year old. He has so much to say and I who hasn't blogged in forever still can't fill a page.
I have an idea I will do something I love and alk about movies. I am going to watch Ray tonigh and see what all the raving is about, you know, with Jamie Fox and all. I cant wait for the Oscars. I am going to watch them live and they will be on Monday at 4 am. I have to work on Monday so I guess I will be asleep on the computer. I will fill you all in on how it goes.
Ok, I think thats enough for now. I might strain myself doing so much after such a long time.
Ciao.
