Burning the Candle at Both Ends








I am going to try and stop the bitching. I swear, I am an upbeat girl! Now for the new year, here are some random thoughts: I read a lot of decorating magazines, I love to look at the books on peoples bookshelves in the photo shoots to see If I know them or have read them.
I compulsively open cans of diet cherry dr.pepper and leave them half-drunk around my house.
I have noticed that when I am stressed or seriously unhappy, I re-read a book I've read a billion times...its like my brains 'reset' button. Some of the books are: Lost Souls by Poppy Z. Brite, The Secret History by Donna Tarte, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K.Rowling and Belinda by Anne Rice (writing as Anne Rampling) any Stephen King is good, too.
None of these books are Shakespeare, but they seam to strike a chord with my soul. I also play a ridiculous amount of video games on my DS...the world could be crumbling around me! I love the tax season. Since we are broke, working-class tax payers, we get a good tax return. To me, its better than Christmas, here are some rough plans: first pay off all debt. This will be easy because we owe very few people...next, in the spirit of capitalism, I will give the money back by spending some on much needed stuff. Daddy can go to the dentist. I can go load up on my fave M.A.C. cosmetics, I also need a new pair of Vans...a big birthday bash for the old man...40 this year...Thinking about a trip to IKEA (yay Sweden, I love you and your meatballs!)
Last, I love my Flag Counter, it tells me what countries have clicked on my blog...guys, be cool and leave a comment, you can call me a shallow, self-centered bitch if you like. Its probably closer to the truth than you think!
Drink a shot for me...
