I have come to a startling conclusion as of late – for someone who runs a reorg on her life every few years (new job, new house, new friends more often than not) I am incredibly bad at actually dealing with change.

I DO NOT like having my cheese moved, as the saying goes. Put the damn cheese down and back away slowly before I scratch your eyes out. Got it? Good… -narrows eyes-

I have also realised that I’m even clingier than I first feared. This is very very bad. And could have further reaching consequences than I would like to admit right now.

Also, the rowing machine is my mortal enemy. Seriously. Ow. Wtf. My lungs hurt.

And finally, I’m feeling so very very blue. I blame my life’s soap opera-esque quality for that. Or the equilibrium. Amy knows what I mean -nods solemnly-
So I’m going to go run a hot bath and read Dilbert comics.

Cos that’s what I do.

Awkward Moments

May 13, 2009

I’ll cut to the chase on this one – I’m drawing a total mental blank for ideas on my short story and I want some suggestions :D

The theme, due to my recent obsession with steampunk, is time – I can’t really be more specific than that as it’s all deep and literary and meaningful and blah blah blah (basically it’s a load of pretentious shit). But what I need from you guys is an example of when time has either
a) seemed ridiculously significant/insignificant or
b) DRAGGED ON LIKE A MO FO.

I don’t want to hear about you waiting in a queue for example ;) but maybe waiting for results on a particularly painful test (I meant a school test, but take it how you will you sickos :P ), or maybe something way more significant than that? Or it can be totally meaningless! Perhaps time dragged on really badly as you were waiting for your lecture to end so you could go buy candy! (What? Am I the only one who does that?)
I don’t need you to describe it in great depth. I don’t need you to tell me every detail of the event (though if you want to, go for it) cos my imagination will fill in the blanks and it will probably end up resembling nothing like what you’d planned X3 I just need some scenarios to work with. Everything I can come up with out of my own life is just… too me XD I want something a bit less self-centred.

So, uh… yeah! Hit me with your best shot :) and I’ll do a “my life” update on here later.
