I heart Nathan Fillion

One of my biggest pet peeves is having customers waiting when I open the store. It just pisses me off. I understand people have shit to do, but come on! Give a girl a minute to breathe. What's worse is that they are always ready to jump into whatever the fuck they are after. I just hate you.

Now on to some fun stuff!

I have been obsessing and collecting nail polishes since I was a teen, many, many moons ago. I. Love. Shiny. Things. There. I said it! And nail polish is cheap(sometimes) and the colors are limitless! Back in the day, when only red and pink were acceptable colors, I always went for whatever odd ball green or blue I could find. Now, pretty much anything goes, which makes me...so...very...happy. Tears. Tears. Tears of joy, running down the side of my face. Breathing...breathless...heaving...

Focus. Focus.

Anyways, I have my favorite five colors from the Fall 2010 season. I attempted to swatch and photograph them, and I failed miserably. The swatches are ok, but it's 8:30pm and there's no natural light (yeah Daylight Saving Time) and my camera is only taking fuzzy pics of my nails. I think I'll post one, just cuz it's hysterically bad.



Thumb is Sally Hansen Haute Chocolate; pointer is China Glaze Riveter Rouge; favorite finger is Galaxy Girl from Orly; ring finger is Essie Sew Psyched and finally Kelly from Zoya. I love them all! They're all great and fally and just, just SHINY!

Other things that I love right now are the groups Rise Against and Five Finger Death Punch. Loves them very much, especially "Swing Life Away" and "Bad Company", which is an especially kick ass cover.

Oh, Castle, My Castle. You've overtaken the place that was reserved for Chuck, but since I can rationalize that the Captain always gets his way and Jayne gets his gun, then it's all good, right? As long as it's in the Whedonverse extended family...

And now I'm watching The Mummy Returns...hmmm... Rick O'Connell. One of my favorite lines is in the first Mummy movie:

Beni: Hey, O'Connell! It looks to me like I've got all the horses!
Rick: Hey, Beni! Looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the river!

I tried to find a clip on youtube, and again, failed miserably. There was only one it kinda sucked...so here it is!

New job, same shit

Well, I've finally made it out of the chocolate world and into the crazy world of...optics? WTF. I can't deal with that now. I just remind myself how much better my life is now. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Instead, I will jump into my new obsession. Nail polish, which isn't a new addiction, just one that's been ramped up now that I can wear nail polish at work (wouldn't want any sparkly flecks and foils in the chocolate, now would we?). There are tons of nail polish blogs out there (and I love...most of them!) so what to do to make this different? Other than have actual people see it? I have no fucking clue. How's that for a brilliant plan? Anyway, I plan on starting the first of the year, or maybe sooner, or whenever. My birthday?

Maybe combine two of my favorite things...books and nail polish. Hmm, something to ponder. Hmm, vodka and nail polish. That sounds better. Cocktails to paint by. I'm still working out the kinks...

Welcome to the last year anyone can wear those awful 00 glasses!

Fear.

That is all that I'm feeling lately.

Fear that I'll lose my job.
Fear that I won't find another job because I want to leave my job.
Fear that I won't write anything.
Fear that I will write something and it will be horrible.
Fear that I will fail.
Fear that I cannot do this on my own.
Fear that I will be the crazy cat lady who screams at her neighbors for being too loud.
Fear that I will have no choice but do this alone.
Fear that I prefer being the smartest person surrounded by average people rather than finding other people who will challenge me to become more.
Fear that I have reached my pinnacle, and that it is a low one.

This is supposed to be my year. So I will get all the fear out now!
Hope. It's what I'm looking for. Hope in myself and humanity.
Confidence. What I can give to others but am lacking at the moment!
Love. It's what makes us all tick, one way or the other.

THIS IS MY YEAR! I call it. It is mine to do with as I please! I don't need to call shotgun, fore I am at the driver's wheel and I refuse to give up control! Rally! Rally my hopes and my dreams and what is not just owed to me, but what I've worked hard for and deserve! RALLY my friends, for it is for us, and never forget we are not alone! Rally!

WOOOOOSAAAAAAAA!
