| Is anything else good. |
[05 Dec 2010|09:00pm] |
Shows I watch:
- Misfits
- Community
- Dexter
- Luther (when it comes back on)
- Psych (but it's getting a bit shitty)
Look, is there anything else that's even remotely good on television?
Just let me know. Because this seems to be it.

| lgbt |
[04 Dec 2010|02:51pm] |
FOS has been mentioned as a LGBT book on blogs. I'm pretty sure it's not. I don't know if you can classify the incidental sexuality of a character as bouncing it into a LGBT barrel, especially as it's mentioned like once and as a source of lulz. I don't know, I wouldn't call A Touch of Frost an LGBT show just 'cos he had a gay sidekick once.
I don't know. Maybe I've read things wrong.
As I'm sure you know I've told Andy I'll leave him if he doesn't have a degree by the end of this year. I can't stop being horrified by the fact he's clearly not even making the effort to study at all. I don't know. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with him. Maybe this is his nice way of telling me it's over? Ugh.

| suicide twins |
[30 Nov 2010|11:48pm] |
I fucking knew I knew those twins in that suicide pact in Australia
They went to my school & were in my year level or the year just below
goddammit, fucking weird!
from one report:
An old schoolmate from the Methodist Ladies College in Kew told The Age that the twins were quiet and did not socialise with other students.
'They were intellectual but quite socially awkward,' she said.
'They were perceived as strange or weird. It was a b****y school and it was hard for them because they came in Year 10.
'I can't think of anyone who was actually friends with them.'

| your feelings about you |
[25 Nov 2010|09:46pm] |
I have been talked to at work about clothing (not in a boss telling me what to wear way but a friend suggesting I should try finding a FASHION). I've never had one as my mummy has always bought my clothes. I did attempt to be trendy and purchase clothes but generally that didn't work for me at all during high school.
I don't know, I've never really understood the whole wearing clothes/fashion/style stuff. I mean I just don't understand it. Basically all you are doing is finding stuff to cover up your rude parts. That's it. You could do it with fucking masking tape, it doesn't really matter.
So yeah I don't get it.
Like I don't look in shop windows and go ooooh what a lovely dress I wish I could wear that.
Then again I don't wear make up and I've never understood looking good or trying to look pretty or whatever.
I mean I'm never going to be the most attractive person in the world so why the fuck bother? There's always going to be someone more pretty so why don't you just try doing something that is worthwhile?
I don't know I guess it is just a form of creativity that I haven't really got my head around ever, I don't quite get art either except when it looks like STUFF not this fucking bogus Matisse Fauvian shit.
But anyway I thought it would be interesting to get a fashion. I like to look most of the time if I have a fashion like I am homeless and that I crawled out of a dumpster, this is probably "my look", for example I have a lot of awesome hoodies and ripped jeans and I wear Andy's clothes a lot.
I have pretty shoes but that's because they are the only ones that like... actually FEEL okay I just can't walk anywhere because it hurts if I'm not wearing stupid clogs.
I dunno should I get a fashion? People seem to but I don't know, when I try putting on make up I feel like I just tarted up a pig and I'm always thinking, SO WHAT DID I INTEND TO GET OUT OF THIS REALLY WAS THERE A POINT TO THIS.

| good god my day |
[09 Nov 2010|06:22pm] |
Was about balancing people's shit.
I honest to god nearly lost my shit at one point because I was being asked to do something I didn't want to.
And then I ran around to various different ministries and branches, mainly screaming and bouncing around.
OMG.
Our team of 9 was down to 4 by the end of the day.
DID NOT COPE.

| fuck |
[08 Nov 2010|06:04pm] |
So okay
If I book something on a holiday
And I pay the deposit
And then I cancel the flight etc...
I just lose the deposit, right? I don't have to pay any more money????
|
|
| Other people watch this, right? |
[07 Nov 2010|10:54am] |
Andy is standing talking at me about how terrible the Prince of Persia movie is. I'm not capable of watching it since they appear to have taken a fantastic widdle all over the games.
Going out to a party tonight which will apparently involve like music videos.

| hmmm. |
[06 Nov 2010|01:40pm] |
Quit nanowrimo - the only stat on the site I used was removed, and suddenly I realised that in fact that was the ONLY thing making me want to do this.
First time I'd gotten involved in the 'community' aspect of it (as a side-effect of using the stat).
I can't say I'm not fucking pissed off but hey, I didn't pay any money for the thing so I really can't complain at all.
Time to write reeeealll fiction! D:

| I NEED THIS |

My husband needs to have a "reference" for this Video Game Tester shit.
So do click on it and help him.
OMG.

| Enjoying my job |
[06 Nov 2010|11:18am] |
I really do. I'm freaked about a lot of things and don't quite understand OTHER things. But I like it. There's so much responsibility and I am awful at managing things but whatever.
Behind again on Nanowrimo.
Watched the fireworks last night from the top of my building. Kind of mad because all around the other buildings people were letting off pretty FUCKING HUGE fireworks. Including shooting them off from their balconies into the street. What the fuck, New Zealand.
Trying to work out some cheap flights around fucking Asia. Grargrgh. It's hard.
Also, being raw again. I've hit that point where you're like FUCK YEAH I'M RAW WOAHHHH LET'S GET FUCKED UP and I don't sleep anymore. I hit it faster that I did last time, which is interesting.
I miss real food though.

| crying puppy |
[02 Nov 2010|09:53pm] |
The puppy had a big cry about the splitting account thing because he thought I was planning to get a divorce and had a little breakdown so we're making a change to who gets an account.
Basically he will get the master account and manage that and I will get a different account and my salary will just bounce into that. I'll just automatically send him $700 or so bucks each fortnight to cover rent and groceries and let him have that.

| After reading some posts yesterday |
[02 Nov 2010|05:40pm] |
I realised that the reason I never have any money while making a fucking lot of it is because I have a husband with absolutely no understanding of money, a credit card, and free rein over the internet.
He has been turning up in shirts lately that he bought off the internet.
I'm going to point out at this point that the last time I bought clothes for me was a pair of $20 shoes in Norway and then in 2006, when I got a shirt and a skirt for his sister's wedding.
I don't actually buy anything. Yes I go on holidays. But I budget for them because I never spend anything.
So tomorrow I'm going to the bank and splitting our accounts. I feel like I've got to act more like an adult and be more responsible for my own finances instead of just passing the buck to someone else to look at (Andy, my accoutant, etc).
Hopefully this change will herald a whole new world in Rachel empowerment.

| It's a taxi driver Luthor vs Sherlock |
[30 Oct 2010|07:38pm] |
4 different victims
No social cross over
NO signs of struggle
ALL taken from places they knew or were familiar with
Time taken for Luthor to work that out: 5 seconds. Seriously.
Time taken for Sherlock to work that out: TWO HOURS OF MY GODDAM LIFE and even THEN the murderer had to drive to his fucking house with tokens from the murder victim. AND TEXTED HIM.
I feel offended on the part of ACD for these fucking twats turning his clever character into a fucking moron.

| Huge. |
[30 Oct 2010|03:56pm] |
FUCK I hate Ian so much. What a fucking COCK.
Love Becca, Will & Chloe though. Waii. And Hayley Hasselhoff is soooo pretty.
Okay I'm going to stop talking about TV now, srsly.
Andy is over at his BFFs place. BFFs girlfriend is a useless right wing cuntsack and I have banned Andy from eating her food, so he decided to get chips before he went over there. I hope he comes back to tell me that worked out, srsly.

| More TV stuff |
[29 Oct 2010|08:20pm] |
I'm watching this show called Huge. (Someone mentioned it as a result of that whole Marie Claire fail.)
REALLY LIKE IT.
Like I love girls being friends on TV. I really do. It's the superest thing.
Also I identify way too hard with the main chick Will. I'm like YEEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Also going to watch this show called Luthor or something like that. Apparently it's a British detective show and you know what, I still can't get rid of the horrors of Sherlock AFTER WATCHING ALL SEASONS of Jonathan Creek. So I'm going to try this one and see if it works.
It seems like I watch a lot of TV right now but I am working full time! It's hard to think clearly after a day at work writing writing writing.
In other news though a Very Nice Magazine gave Andy and me a call back for the story about Horror Games. It's pretty exciting, it's a magazine I TOTALLY want in to, AND it'd be Andy's first fiction publication! Keep your fingers crossed for me.
Update: Luther is pretty good. Has a Hannibal Lecter character. Very much a mind fuck, not much mystery. Also, Luther is intelligent. I like that, as compared to Sherlock, who my god. My god. I'm having conversations with Andy about bits of the show where we were like... "So it's this..." And twenty minutes later Sherlock is OH MY GOD I HAD AN AMAZING IDEA. Man it was so sad.
And he doesn't understand chairs.
Oh god.
Sherlock Holmes doesn't understand chairs.
Maybe that was just too MODERN CULTURE FOR HIM.
LIKE WAY TOO MODERN. CHAIRS ARE HARRRRRD.
....
I'm not sure if I want to write that Lovecraftian Choose Your Own Adventure for Nanowrimo or the Princess story. The issue is I know MOTHERFUCK ALL about Lovecraft. I would expect you to help me. :) And where would this story start???
