Pico de Sicko Ranto et tal.

It seems the longer I neglect this blog, the more I forget the reasons behind having it.

The trouble here is that in being sick, I lose both the desire and the caring about writing anything at all--be it something with substance, something real and worth sharing...or just stupid random crap that amuses about two people in the world, including myself.


Sick sucks. It saps your strength, your personal character, and leaves you with the true feeling of nothingness---Trying to cope with it is madness.

Thought: Is it worse being sick when you're older? Being a kid, it's just sad being sick--it takes up your time, you can't play or be rambunctious or annoy your parents with your usual random kid stuff. I'm finding it to be tougher when older.. You have things you want to do, places to be, and the general feeling of self-worth diminishes when you don't feel much like yourself. Actually, I think I retract the thought.. It's pretty similar, the two. Key difference is who you complain to and what sort of crap(be it adult: job, or kid: school and what have you) you have to endure during the day. The feeling low and not wanting to do anything worthwhile stays the same, I think.

Still. I don't feel fully like me. I hate that alot.


In other news, people have been rediscovering my work on FictionPress and commenting lately... Not sure how to feel about that. It's good to be read and appreciated, but most of that stuff was written when I didn't care about how things sounded. Really I just wrote to write. Still, the idea that people still read those things gets me caring about it again. Suppose that's a good thing. No real yen to resume as yet...but the curiosity does linger.



Lastly, people have been buzz buzzing about Lost and finales and so forth. Honestly, I'm just taking it at my pace. Sometime back when I had oodles of free time to fetter away, I sat through all of the 1st and 2nd Seasons--really eager to dive right in and watch the whole show from beginning to end. Now, I'm trying to do that again, albeit a little slower and with a little more appreciation for the actions. I figure it's much nicer this way, and now more especially with the show being over. Really just go at my pace, not listening to spoilers or everyone's particular brand of commentary on it. You really can't get a full sense of the experience through second and third handed reports. I won't lie about it. I am curious about what happens to these characters, and from some folks, it's very cool to get their bird's eye of the show and compare what we know about it.. But really.. it's just always turned out well to get on with it with your own scope, with your ideas and feelings on it...Personal is almost always best.

Weekend Confection #4: The Liz Lemon Crush

We really haven't had a moment to explore the joys of doing a weekend confection in some time, and as per our usual here at KJimmy, we don't feature our highschoolesque crushing fanboyness. (Not putting the knock on those that do, that's all well and good for you. You're admitting these things. That's very cool. *Pats on the back and kudos to you*)

Anyhow, our typical taster's choice type post is usually a bad(?) movie or some random bit of music obsession for the week...but hey-o, it's a new day, and we thought we might take a page out of our bestie's playbook..


And so, with that in mind, we grin sheepishly and proudly present the lovely, witty, vibrant star of 30 Rock...

Tina Fey


Not only is this pretty girl(woman) currently featured in a hit sitcom, but she's a smarty (and your Uncle Sexy loves the bright ones.) too.
She's got the charisma, the bold "I'm quick enough to keep up with you, so take notice" nature while still conveying a sensitive warm listener type... And for extra points, she splits her professional career going back and forth between acting and writing. (Which is very very cool.)

What does this mean?

We've got ourselves the trifecta: Geeky-Pretty-Funny definitely rates for top marks around here.


She's aces in our book...just needs to consider ditching that friggin tard Rachel Dratch.
Yeah. I said it. We can go back to ignoring the pink elephant in every other scene now.


Last Word: Uncle S approves.


So, that's about it.

Go watch 30 Rock. Geek out too. It'll be fine.

Trust us. It's the good stuff.

Public Purge and New Stuff

Life is going well. Job is going well. Can't stand waking up early.
Let's see how next week goes.

Oh, and I'm a big jerk for not updating. Shame on me.
Kay, I've said some new stuff and properly berated myself for not
saying them sooner. Have I missed anything?


:)



PS. 30 Rock.. What a great show!
I'm so late with cool stuff..gotta work on that.

Just so we're clear...

I haven't updated in forever, and I feel like a jerk about it.


Kay. That's all for now.


*Update 2 mins later*

So, yeah, the new job is pretty sweet, but I'm not going to jinx it and get too happy over it. I've done that so many times in the past that at this point, I just want to revel in the goodness for a while and then tackle the reality that comes after. But.. I'm liking it so far. The hours are a little murderous, but it's not so so horrible that I can't deal.

Life is pretty good. I'd like to ride that tide for as long as possible. I just get so tired of the ebbs and flos...Would rather maintain the positive parts and go on with it.

Gonna try for that.
