About Me

Wow, it was way past time to update this. What can I say? I'm a newlywed adjusting to the mostly enjoyable changes marriage entails. I'm lucky; I've found a man who can put up with me for longer than five minutes..and he's sexy to boot. I'm a frustrated writer working in customer service to pay the bills; I will write a best-seller one day all about my family. I'm trying to wait until the guilty parties die..

My Interests

Writing, politics, wearing straw hats, cocktail hour, lying down for no good reason, cooking, reading, sleep yelling, spy tech, and anything related to the Mafia.. Emily --
[noun]:

A beat poet working the streets

I'd like to meet:

Patrick Dempsey, people who enjoy shenanigans as well as hijinks, politicians who aren't corrupt and still wish to inspire, dance fighting (there should be more), the midgets that live in the midget village in Pennsylvania, Stephen Colbert, John Irving, and people who make me laugh out loud.

Hot flashes and cinematic disappointment

I am hot..several of you should be saying to yourselves, "Yesss..you are (in a very 'Anchorman' kind of way,") but I mean, my face is aflame, and it kinda sucks. Apparently, one of the seven different...

These vagabond shoes...are longing to stray

Hot damn, it's Friday. I wish every day had the insouciant (what a KICK-ASS word) feeling that Fridays have. You get to wear jeans, which I personally feel you should be able to wear to work every day...

Monday, Monday

I'm sure I could dislike today more, I just don't quite know how. We're busy; everyone is cranky, and there are FOUR more days in the week. Blast! And now for something completely different...I think ...

Remember Jim Fixx, dammit

I am so bored at work right now, I could seriously stick a pencil in my brain and swirl things around just to stay awake.. Also, it doesn't help that I've been eating junk food from a party for a co-w...

Mud wrestling, foxy boxing and such and such

See, the title of this blog is kind of misleading. This blog is not about any of those things. I really have no frame of reference for those things, except in college, I vaguely remember mud wrestling...

Karaoke and an old lady

So, yeah, I'm supposed to be working now, but I've grown tired of people asking me accounting questions. If you're waiting until today to file your taxes, don't get mad at me because your accountant d...

The weekend is near..

Since for some reason, this is the only Internet function that seems to be working on my computer..so you get two blogs in two days. (TRY to control yourselves) I have had that "Let's all go to the lo...

1:30 P.M.S.

I'm cranky..I don't know if it's the weather or my hormones or a plethora of other issues, but I now can easily see why seemingly normal individuals climb towers and shoot people. It probably just mak...

Is this week over yet?

I find the Theory of Relativity alive and well if you apply it this way: Spending time with your kick-ass husband makes the day and even weekend fly by, and only having to work four days in one week m...

Not for bedtime consumption

Why do I do it? Why? What is it that I do, you ask..watch horror movies after 2 p.m. Smitty says the cut-off should be noon, but I'm not sure about that. Last night, I got the brilliant idea..ooh, I'l...
