I know it's late for the holidays, but OMG. I just HAD to say something. GO HERE:

You would NOT BELIEVE this guy's selection.

IE: This, I got for a longtime friend, Frankie - http://www.brutallo.com/superstarback.jpg

"Todd Haynes best film chronicles the life and death of Karen Carpenter, using
Barbie dolls in place of actual actors."

This, for Pete - http://www.brutallo.com/badronaldweb.jpg

"Scott Jacoby starred in a few TV movies, but, 'Bad Ronald' put him on the map."

Trust me. There's something for everyone - *cough* Exit 57 - my gateway drug *cough* - and he just got a whole NEW list of stuff that's amazing, like, Winterland..and on and on..

The guy's great, really nice; works with you and I canNOT believe he actually put into my order (as a bonus!surprise) - 'Urgh! A Music War' - *totally spazzes* - which (having Gary Numan..DEVO..Joan Jett, etc.) I've not seen since..uh...

...do any of you young'uns remember..'Night Flight'?

*~*~*

Last night, at work, I picked up some haphazard book and began reading it. It was..Some corny old-lady period romance thing.

Ahem.

*pictures Colbert in a Napoleonic Naval uniform*

Ya'll are LUCKY I don't have Pshop.

*~*~*

Two of my friends at work totally shocked me with presents, last night and I love them; I was so touched.

My dear wiseguy, Gloria, got me - well. You see, I only wear dark colours. Specifically all navy - solid - no foo-foo Spongebob or Tinkerbelle for me. I look professional.

She got me a scrubtop that's all rainbow-butterflies/happy/femmy/joy-joy. Smartass. ♥ - and Miss Robin got me a mug with double-chocolate cocoa and even little marshmallows, lol. I have the perfect gift for Robin, already - a really cool bowl (with a 'Tree of Life' on it) that I got as my gift for the Christmas breakfast at work and gave as a 'secret Santa' - I'd love to surprise her with it.

I wish I had a million dollars, I'd just buy people stuff.

My son wants to give Gloria a 'Ziggy Stardust' teeshirt that he never got to wear - wrong size - since Gloria said that 'Bowie's her man', heh. I just might.

AND. YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE IT. DOODS.

A girl at work ASKED me for a night, 'cos she needs hours.

I was like, 'WELL, YOU JUST HELP YOURSELF' and she did.

God bless her; she's taking the night BEFORE Christmas Eve - which means, a) time to get my shit together for Christmas Eve, b) TWO DAYS OFF, IN A ROW, then, c) working Christmas Night - AND GETTING TO FLOAT (!!!), WHICH MEANS I GET TO SEE 'ALL' MY PEOPLE, NOT JUST A SINGLE WING - SO looking forward to it - JOYJOYJOY - and then? Are you ready?

Right into two. more. days. off. My normal weekend off.

SWEET.

I just have to get thru the next three nights.

*~*~*

"You can't always get what you want (no, no baby)
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes
you just might find
You just might find

You get what you need, ah yes... "

Words of wisdom.


I GOTTA STOP GODDAMNED BITCHING. HONESTLY. WHATEVER. I'M SORRY, AND I KNOW I HAVE SOME NERVE.

Thanks.

I love you people.

No, you have some seriously wrong SHIT in your life, and you have a right to complain.

Money does not solve all of our problems, but lack of money does not help us in finding a solution, either. I know how hard it is to accomplish anything you want to do without any capital. TRUST ME I KNOW.

Hooray days off! You well deserve them.

Sometimes a re-gift is a better gift than a store-bought one. Of all the things I have been given, many of my favorites are things that were not new or paid for, like the kangaroo shirt that my friend Rodney took OFF OF HIS BACK and gave to me, because I wanted it. This was in a STORE. Not at home. In public, in a store, he took the shirt off his back and gave it to me because it had kangaroos on it. I, of course, gave him something - a free Winston t-shirt I had gotten from a vendor - to wear home.

My friend Rick gave me his Joshua Tree U2 polo sweatshirt (in 1995) because he didn't like U2 as much as I did. :)

People have made me DVDs they'd burned of things that I have missed on TV and those things are more priceless than a $50 gift certificate to Blockbuster.

We are trained by this society to only enjoy things that come from stores, but there are a few of us left who know how to appreciate a perfect match, even if it is not new. And gifts that come from the heart rather than from an obligation are SO much better, not matter what they are.

Hang in there, holidays are almost over!

Well, it was like God just slapped me right in the face with love, lol - after my horrible bitching..*facepalm*

>>Hang in there, holidays are almost over!

AMEN. ♥

That's great, hon!

Don't let anyone tell you what you can & can't complain about. It's your life, your problems (rather large ones, sorry), NOT THEIRS.

You never gave me your address! I wanted to send you a Xmas card...

Frankly,I think we're all missing out because you don't.
:D

If we don't cross paths between now and Christmas, I hope yours is peaceful.
