HEED MY WORDS, AMERICA!!

Image
I just woke up from an afternoon nap. It's 6pm. I'm pretty sure I started to sleep some time around 3:30pm. I won't be going back to sleep long-term anytime soon. Remember my pretty little diagram that explains the proper way to walk around a corner? Well, I suppose it isn't so much telling you the proper way, but more showing you what happens when you do it incorrectly. But anyway, remember it? Well, as we come to the beginning of a new semester, the second semester in fact, at a school that is famous for its underground tunnel system that twists and turns, creating many perilous corners that, if not used with caution, could end in tragedy for people like me (I apologize for this extremely long sentence that is probably run-on by now), I expect that even the newest of freshmen have mastered at least some semblance of an understanding of how this campus is and works. Yet, as I've walked the halls this past week, casually, cautiously, and carefully, I have e...

If you don't do this you will explode a kitten in Winchestertonfieldville.

So here's the deal. I have an idea for a webseries and I need your help to make it happen. I am going to gather as many of your suggestions (structure to follow) and make videos with them, but only when the video is posted will you understand why I needed your help. These are the things I need. You can either post them as a comment here, or Facebook me, or something. I don't know if it'd be a wise idea to give away me e-mail address here. Hm. Well, here goes: 1. A first name (male or female) 2. A noun 3. A number 4. A place 5. A strange occupation 6. A noun 7. A genre of music 8. A noun 9. A place 10. A noun 11. A quote, proverb, motto, or saying So there it is. Send me your answers, folks, and I'll get started!! If you want to be involved, let me know about that too. I know that a lot of people don't comment because they either A) Don't want to B) Don't know how C) Are lazy or D) Don't like me, but if I could urge you to comment on any...

I am a strange, strange little person.

Okay. So, though none of you read this little tiny blog entry beneath this one, I'm going to apologize for it and tell you that I wrote it while I was a touch intoxicated just before hunkering down into bed for the night. Embarrassing. Oh well. HI! I also must apologize for my lack of blogging lately. But as they say, too much of a good thing...is....bad. Or something. But here I am, blogging again. You're welcome. I think the time off was needed. Had I blogged about any of my feelings or emotions over the last few weeks it may not have turned out so well for anybody. I just needed to reflect on my own. I couldn't think of the words to say that would have made for a good explanation of my emotions, and I didn't feel like cracking any jokes, so my fingers stayed away from the blogging keyboard. I did a lot of reading. I'm on the last Twilight book. I don't know what to think. It's like the stupidest thing I've ever read, but I can't stop rea...

LAME EXCUSE FOR A BLOG ENTRY

I will post again soon. I promise!!!!!

Meh.

I am blogging again. I usually have all these raw ideas bouncing around in my head that I know  I should write down immediately as soon as I think them, because these thoughts are good, they're real , and but perhaps not something I should be revealing to the general public. I preach that you shouldn't Tweet your problems. (And feel free to replace 'Tweet' with any sort of social networking site out there at the moment.) I don't think it's exactly right, or fair to let people know you're upset or annoyed or irritated with them or something they've done or haven't done through the internet. So I would be a hypocrite if I decided to blog my problems. It's just very hard for me to talk to someone face to face about real issues. I either don't have the guts to bring up the problem and it goes untouched in conversation and then it eats at me forever, or I do bring it up, but my lack of confidence in my use of words overcomes my need to say wha...

Trends and Masochistic Lunacy

You know what I don't like? When my German Shepherd, the protector dog, starts barking at the back door when there is no one home but me, and it is really dark outside and I cannot see anything out there, and then just stares out the glass door..... Feeling like a fool for keeping some feelings alive that I know I really shouldn't. And also, feeling like I don't exist or don't matter. When my cable cuts out just one channel, the ONLY channel that I wanted to watch, during the ONE time I wanted to watch the ONE show I've been waiting for all week. Boo. So, I really hate fads. I don't like to follow things that are popular. So, what I do is this: I wait until it's not the hot topic anymore, and then I test it out. See what it's about. Take, for example, Harry Potter. I did not want to have anything to do with Harry Potter when it first came out. I thought it was dumb, even though I had no idea what it was about. And this was just when the books c...

A Few Tips For Pet Care (Updated)

Image
How to Care for Your Pet Pets are mini, furry companions. They're lovable as well as loving, loyal, and fun. But if you don't take care of them properly, they become problematic and troubled. Here are a few friendly tips on how to keep a cute, cuddly four-legged creature from turning into Kujo, or worse, one of those battered animals from the ASPCA commercials with Sarah McLachlan playing in the background. Pay them attention. Pets need lots of things. But what keeps them happiest of any of the things you can provide, is good old-fashioned attention. Take them outside. Walk with them. Pet them. As crazy as it sounds, talk to them. If you can't provide the time or the effort to do any of these things, then your pet is going to feel the negative effects of neglect. They may become depressed and sluggish. A pet's only goal in life is to love you. The least you can do is love them back. It isn't difficult. They don't ask for much. The least you can do is giv...

Tattooooooo?

I want to get a tattoo. It is going to be a flamingo of some kind. I kind of want to incorporate something that has to do with my family into the picture as well. Like a shamrock. Or an L. Or ... something. Any ideas? This is a shameful blog. .... Peace. Molly

Happy New Year - 4 days late

I love staying in hotels. I think it may be because I never really got the full "college experience" of living in a dorm on campus. It's just fun to get away and stay in some room where you don't have to wash the sheets or make the beds and they give you free shampoo. I'm in East Lansing right now for the American College Theatre Festival. It took us about 11 hours, 4 movies, and two cheeseburgers to get here by bus. I almost feel guilty for being here. The show that has been nominated, the one that we're taking to this festival, I was not a part of the first time around in October. I was in the musical so I wasn't able to be cast or take part of any crews. But I wanted to go back to ACTF so I volunteered to be on a crew and tag along. Being on crew was like a full-time, non-paying job, being at school for 8 hours a day or better. But I learned a lot about electrics for theatre. By the way, Happy New Year! Hope you all didn't have too much fun....
