12 Steps to Dating Freedom

September 15, 2009 at 12:53 pm · Filed under Randomness ·Tagged , , , ,

Step #1  Admit you have a problem –  ”Hi my name is Amanda and I have an unhealthy obsession with Hot Men.  Like this one…

My, what a big sword

Step #2 Find a Sponsor – Ask a friends, loved one or pet to support you while you struggle with the urges to do stupid things, like call him back or Facebook stalk him.

Step #3 Join a Support Group – The White Russian Army is currently taking applications.  Requirements are a bottle of Kahlua and mad Karaoke skills.

Step #4 Take this Quiz – “Guy Crazy or Guy Cool-Which are you?” I’m a Moxie in Moderation whatever that means.  I heart Teen quizzes!

Step #5 and I’m out.  Who needs 12 any way?  If you have any good ones, leave em in the comments.  Commander Amander out!

Went online today to get my absentee app filled out and sent it.  Perused the sample ballot while I was there and holy cow is there some crazy stuff to vote on in my little corner of the world.  I’m still registered to vote at home, mostly because I move around Chicago too much to bother and also because it’s more fun to participate when I know the people and by know I mean went to grade school with their kids.  Yep, formerly know as Luke’s mom is running against a 15 year incumbent.  As I was explaining that usually happens when someone’s pissed off enough to get on the ballot.  And get this crazy, I’ll be voting on a referendum for carry concealed weapons in the county!!  Now I have no clue which way this is going to go but for my money, I know people at home and the obscene amounts they drink.  So no, I will not be voting yea. This isn’t Texas, or Sparta.  And to cap it all I became a supporter on Facebook of my favorite politician…the Double D.  Who?  Assistant Senate Majority Leader Dick Durbin baby.  Love this guy.  You might have seen him introducing Barack Obama at the Democratic National convention.  He’s one of the best, really.  Heart him.

Moral of the story, forget Diddy, I’ll come after you if you don’t vote, Angie.

Dreams in boxes…

I was searching through my papers (just papers, you know, business papers).   Really I was looking for my poetry stuff I used student teaching because I have a poetry project in a class and wanted to us some of the poems.  I found all that plus my teaching certificate.  The two year old cert that has never been used.  That one that expires in 2 years if I don’t teach with it. 

I realize my goals have changed.  I changed them because I knew I didn’t want to teach then.  But I’ve never made it final.  It’s always back there that I can get a teaching job if I want.  But here is this document representing all that work and time and tears.  I put it away thinking I was being organized and keeping it safe.  It was so safe I forgot about it.

I’m halfway through the Watchmen which maybe influencing this reflective, what do it mean, our work and our jobs?  It’s dark stuff but I like it.  I don’t know how I swing from this and Stephan King to romance novels and picture books.  There’s no middle ground with me.  I’m also watching Shameless, a BBC show about this messed up Scottish family.  It’s very graphic and with people that are not nice, honest and rarely decent.  But you love them anyway.  And James McAvoy gets naked.

I am not a professional…

I worry about my future career.  I just spent a good hour, hour and a half printing Married to the Sea images and taping them to various surfaces of my co-worker’s desk.  Maybe this is why I want to work with kids and YAs.  I AM A CHILD!  Seriously I would never last in a corporate environment. 

In case you don’t know Married to the Sea is a great site.  They take old images and put new text with them.  They are, naughty, in the real sense of the word.  Some swearing yes but mostly they’re mischievous.  There’s a new one each day.  This one is my fav of the moment. http://www.marriedtothesea.com/090708/european-vacation.gif

Project Runway delivered yet again.  Gave Terri and Blaine or however he spells his name the boot.  Finally.  They were okay but they were never good.  Not as good as my girls Korto and Leanne.   I think they’re going to Bryant Park and hopefully Jerell.  Joe’s not high class enough and Suede is too inconsistent.  But then what do I know about fashion?  And Michael Kors is sooo mean.  I heart him. 

Have I told you all to watch The Fall.  Watch The Fall with hottie Lee Pace.  Its a great movie, he just makes it hotter.  Watch it. 

Ugh…work on Saturdays.  Evil.
