Katy Perry Apparently Doesn't Know Sesame Street is for Kids

Here's a Thought:

If you were going on a children's television show....don't you think you would wear an outfit that didn't show three square feet of cleavage?? And Katy Perry has at least that much or more to show. I'd probably let down the hem of that dress a few inches, too, but that's just me and my ridiculously old-fashioned values and terribly out-dated morals.

This Is What Happens When...

...your husband leaves the door open when he takes the dog out to the dog run.

'Member this??

Well it seems that my bird experiences aren't over yet. After coming home from work last Friday (and talking with my mom over lunch who, coincidentally, had a bird nest of her own built on top of the front porch patio light. The eggs had hatched and they are waiting for them to fly off on their own...we hope...since my 5 yr. old nephew was a disobedient little sh@# and knocked it off and threw them in the window sill) I pitter pattered around my kitchen to fix something to eat and then relax on the couch for a few minutes before I had to get ready for a baby shower. Paul called me and I wandered back into the kitchen while I was on the phone with him.

I stopped dead when I saw bird poop...ON MY COUNTER. A little white plop and a terd. What the......???? I told Paul there was a bird in the house. He said no, that a bird must have flew up underneath the open top of my kitchen garden window and pooped on the screen. The logic (and trajectory) didn't match up and I told him so. While I was proving my point to him, suddenly a loud SCARY flapping sound took off on my right and landed in the garden window that was in question. I screamed. Like a girl. It caught me completely off guard and scared the crap (pun not intended although very fitting) out of me. This bird went crazy trying to get out and knocked down my plants and frames in the window. Paul thought there was someone in my house, not a something until I stopped screaming and told him that I was right about the bird and he was so, so, so wrong!!

K - so I got the bird out of the house by opening the front door. That's all it took. See ya later. I bleached my counter top and wiped things off. Done. I went upstairs to take care of a few more things and I stopped dead...again. It was on my bathroom counter, in the sink, on the bathroom floor, the office chair, the dressor, Paul's alarm clock, and the worst, absolute WORST of it was in the absolute WORST spot. My bed. My freaking BED!!!! Ughh!!

I had little time to clean but I was not letting that sit in my house so I cleaned like I had rocket boosters installed. The sheets went directly into the wash, the bathroom and all surfaces were bleached, toothbrushes thrown away, floors mopped, carpet inspected and vacuumed (although I couldn't see anything, they will be shampooed!!!) and I still have to find the time to go sit in a laundromat and get my comforter washed.

BAHUMBUG!!!!

Daily Rant #12

This is not meant to offend anyone who has family car decals. With that said, I am ranting about how much I HATE these:

Can we be over this fad, yet?? It was kinda cute the first time I saw it - KINDA. I was already annoyed by the 10th time I saw it. Now there are eleventy-seventy thousand of them everywhere and it's GAY!!! And besides that, why would some people choose to put their names and the names of their children on the cars?? Doesn't that scream unsafe to anybody? I dunno - but I do know that these things HAVE GO TO GO ALREADY!

Daily Rant #11

Dear Justin,

I don't know you, most of your songs are so tweeny boppy I can't stand them, and you're really only a boy which means I shouldn't pick on you. After all, is it really your fault you look like a giant fur pelt or is it your stylist? If it is your stylist, fire that person - like, yesterday. And if you don't have a stylist...well then that's why I'm here, sweety. Your hair is awful. Horrible. Retarded, even. You can't pull of this look. AT. ALL. Not one little bit. If you shaved off that mountain of hair I am pretty sure that you could provide an entire village of underprivileged people with extremely insulated and much needed fur coats. You should really do it Justin Bieber.

Think of the children.

Daily Rant #10

I have a pet peeve. Shocking, right? I know.


This particular pet peeve has to do with Facebook. Or rather I guess I should say, people using Facebook. It's not everyone, of course, because there are normal people who use Facebook.

Now, I understand my pet peeve about this exists because I have a certain personality..one that can't stand people posting every ten minutes, or people posting their touchy, feely, emotiony, 'inspiring' quotes and comments at least once a day, OR people who try so hard (and fail embarassingly) to be funny all the time, OR people talking in third person, OR people being all mushy and putting extremely personal stuff all over the place.

I get on Facebook less and less because I have come to care less and less about what people are saying. I can't stand it when people quote some sappy song that describes what is wrong with them while choosing to be completely vague about what actually IS wrong with them at the same time. I don't like it when someone writes "Sigh" so they can have all their friends comment back "What's wrong? How can I help" only for the original someone to say "I don't want to talk about it."

THEN DON'T WRITE "SIGH" ON YOUR FRIGGIN' WALL.

Needy, emotionally-constipated, attention-whores are all over the place. I, personally, can not stand it. Am I an uncaring, heartless person? No. I am a personal person. So, if something is wrong, get to the point already. Stop playing games so that if something is really the matter, people can reach out to that matter. I don't reach out - because I believe most everyone on my Home page does it for the attention - the wrong attention. And it bugs me.

There. Think of me what you will.

Daily Rant #9

Gerard Butler is NOT hot. And I don't understand why everyone woman thinks he is so swoon-worthy, besides the accent of course because the Irish accent is awesome. However!! He is not attractive and his acting in his last few movies = TERRIBLE. So having said that - I will give him this one magazine cover to look the opposite of NOTHOT and be, instead, somewhat good-looking. That's all.

Daily Rant #8

I'm sorry but I have to just say that I get extremely bugged by people trying to be healthy but think that by adding whole wheat into their diet they are now 'being healthy'. I'm sorry but no. Doesn't anyone know that wheat has been so hybridized that it's not even the same thing that our ancestors used to eat? People eat way too much of it and the majority of people are sensitive to it even if they don't know it or show signs of it. It's a very common allergen. Yes we still need to eat grains, blah blah blah. I'm not an expert but I just want to encourage people to stop believing all the hype out there. The food industry likes to use this 'whole grain movement' (which isn't a movement really) and say that their cereals and breads are now made with whole wheat so now it's healthy. WRONG. NO. ITS. NOT. Grrrrrrrrr. I'm ranting about this because I just read a COOKIE recipe where the lady says "and I used whole wheat flour to make it healthy!" Are. You. KIDDING. Me??

Brilliant.

I cannot believe that I am blogging about the train wreck that is Heidi Montag. I can't stand this mindless, worldly, empty-headed waste of space. Did I get enough Adjectives in there?? I dunno.

I've watched The Hills before and I can't stand it because all of those people walk around like the worst thing that can ever happen to them is their bikini wax got pushed back a week. They all talk like Malibu Barbies - and then they think that they are the bomb and the most-loved celebrities that walk Hollywood. Ugh. Okay. Enough.

So the reason I'm blogging about Heidi Montag??? Because a few years ago, she looked like this:

Anything wrong with this?? I don't think so. She complains that her nose is much too big and that she was always teased for being flat-chested. So she had plastic surgury, of course, because that's the logical answer to loving one's self.

She came out looking like this:

It was known as her "revenge surgery". She went from looking REAL to looking like she's made of plastic. Oh wait. She is. The make-up is always plastered on, the nails are always done, the hair is always super blonde. The thing that really bothers me though, is what she said in her interview.

"I woke up, and it was like Christmas: I was a nervous wreck, but I was just so excited at the same time. Spencer said, "I'm so proud of you." ... But surgery is a very big deal. Right before I went in, I was like, What if I don't wake up? Oh, this is scary. Then I thought, I don't care. If I don't wake up, it's worth it. I just wanted it so badly."

Are you kidding me?? I don't care about living as much as I care about having giant fake boobs?? Cuz really, that's what it's all about, folks. How disgusting. And then her boyfriend says "I'm proud of you"??? I'm proud of you???? Like, you are doing the right thing sweetheart, way to go!!! Whatever happened to, "You are beautiful the way you are and you don't need a new nose and giant boobs. I love you the way you are." ??? I just love the message being sent to women.

That wasn't enough for her though. After only a few years, she went into hiding and apparently, she had 10 surgeries in ONE day. Why?? " To become "the best me", she says. Huh. I thought that came from the inside??

"For the past three years I have thought about what to have done. I am absolutely beyond obsessed. Every starlet is getting surgery every other day to keep their looks up. They just don't talk about it. I wanted to be honest."

Well hats off to you, Heidi. You are such a role model for honesty. It's so important that you are honest about how you believe looks are more important than breathing itself. And now you look like this:

THIS is the best she can be??? What the... She looks like a man who underwent a sex change and the result came out VERY wrong. She was much prettier before. Her boobs are now DDD - AND - she wants them even bigger!! She had a nose job revision, chin reduction, mini brow lift, botox in forehead and frown area, fat injections in cheeks, nasolabial folds and lips, neck liposuction, ears pinned back, liposuction on waist, hips and thighs, buttock augmentation and breast augmentation revision.

She is so UGLY.

Even if you could consider her looks decent, what she believes makes her incredibly ugly. It's so comforting to know that those who are in the spotlight are sending messages that what is most important in life is what you look like.

There are more important issues going on in the world today. How about just being grateful to be alive??

Well...That Blows

Paul and I went on a little adventure last night. First, we trekked out to Lehi to make a purchase after Paul's football game. Since we had to drive separately to the game, he parked his truck in an abandoned parking lot right off of 90th and I-15 so we could just hop off and grab it on the way home and be back on the freeway in no time.

Following the wonderful directions we were given, we back-tracked and U-turned about fifty times - that's enough to put me in a really bad mood. I stayed in my happy place though and soon enough we were on our way back to pick up Paul's truck. We pull up...and like a really good magic trick, Paul's truck has disappeared. Wow. Can someone bring it back now?? That's not funny.

My first thought was that it was stolen. I was surprisingly calm but felt sick about it. I kept going through my head of things that Paul might have in his truck that were valuable and praying that it was jack squat. But then Paul looked up and saw that he parked in a towing zone. Phew!! That's a little better. How did he not see the sign?? Especially since he parked right in front of it?? To give him credit, I didn't notice it either. It's smaller than a bloody street sign. Strangely I wanted to laugh but I kept that in check because Paul obviously did not share my same feelings.

Paul was on the phone right away to figure out where it was taken and what to do. My giggles disappeared faster than the truck did when I learned that it would take $206 to get it out and would increase fifty dollars by the morning. MOTHER TRUCKER!!! Is Paul's truck even worth that much?? @$#%^&*&%$#@@#&!!!!!!

And off we went to get a money order and find the yard that held our truck prisoner making several more U-turns, in turn putting me in an even more foul mood. We came upon the yard, freed the truck and finally went home much later than we had hoped.

Daily Rant #7

So Michael Jackson is dead. I always loved the early Michael (never cared for the white version of him) and I have always loved his music - seriously, he was awesome. But I don't understand people crying about him dying. Yeah it's always upsetting when someone dies because 'a person is a person no matter how small' but honestly...people are really shedding the tears??? I don't get it. It reminds me of Elvis dying. On one of Elvis' 'death anniversaries', some chick on the news (a fan, not a family member) was literaly in hysterics, crying over Elvis who had been gone for I don't even know how long. Is it just me? Am I super insensitive and hard-hearted? Maybe, but I still don't think it's necessary to cry over a celebrity that you didn't know on a personal level.

The Vampire Diaries

I am extremely bored tonight because it's 11 p.m. and Paul is still working which sucks majorly for him. Anyhoo - I hardly ever watch t.v. but I was skimming through to see if there was anything worth watching at the moment (answer: negative) and while I was on the CW, I noticed the promotion for The Vampire Diaries coming this fall. I am kinda excited since I read those books forever ago. I liked them to a certain level - they certainly aren't the best books I have ever read (if you have ever read them you will know what I mean but I won't go into detail) but I made it better in my head as I went along! Anyway - I admit that I am very interested to see how they spin the t.v. show. The only thing so far that bugs me is that Elena is a blonde, not a brunette (seriously, they gotta get some details right!). However, the guy who plays Stefan - major hottie!!! Oh yeah! The other cool thing about these books is that after all these years (and I think due to the Twilight craze) the author extended the series by coming back with The Vampire Diaries: The Return and there will be several books coming out in this series. The first one (Nightfall) already came out and I wanted to rush out and get it but....I already own the other ones in paperback and I just can't have my books mismatched so I am biding my time till they release this one in paperback. Does anyone else get super annoyed with that?? Same thing goes with another series I have read. The author just came out with book number 9, I am dying to read it, it's only in hardback and therefore I have to wait a friggin' year for that one, too! Okay now I am rambling...and now I am done. Just thought I would share. Also I am bored. Did I mention that?

Daily Rant #6

So my sister is getting married in July. It's going to be a really private small affair in my parents' backyard (that's two weddings in a row, there!) and my sister just wants it to have a really intimate feeling- which I love. She's already been married once and she doesn't feel the need to throw an extravagant wedding again and I agree. That's just retarded. But since Kenny hasn't been married before, and doesn't plan on marrying anyone else, he couldn't narrow down his groomsmen. So what was going to be a best man with a groomsman and a maid of honor with a bridesmaid turned into FIVE bridesmaids and groomsman. All is well though - Kenny can have whatever he wants. So that means that my sister and I are now bridesmaids. We have to find a short dress that is any shade of a softer yellow. Well yellow is supposed to be the color of the summer this year, especially in weddings. But can I find a short yellow bridesmaid dress that is not too casual and not too formal but most of all MODEST?? Of course, not. There is lots out there that is strapless, halter top, spaghetti straps, low cut, really really short and backless. But there is NOTHING with sleeves, nothing that is long enough and nothing that looks good modest!! It is SO frustrating!! Does everything have to be so sleezy? Grrrrr! It's really annoying. Now my mom and I were able to find a pattern and material that will be really great but that's just one more thing to do on top of everything else! She's already making the wedding gown, having to keep up her backyard, cater the food, still do a garden and help with all the other wedding stuff. Is it really too much to ask for designers to make something with sleeves that goes down to about your knees and is CUTE? Honestly.

So That Blows.....

I got to work this morning to find that yet another employee has been laid off and I am pretty bummed about the person who left as well as the unfortunate situation my company, and half the country, is in. It has put me in quite a somber mood. I mean, more than half the employees have been laid off and it is pretty depressing when you put yourself in their shoes and realize just how it affects their lives. And with every lay-off, the remaining employees sit and wonder and worry when their turn is next. It shouldn't be this way. I blame the government.

Daily Rant #5

I am PISSED OFF that I now have to dial 801 with every. single. number. FREAKING A!! I am just so f-ing irritated with this. Over the past however many years that Utah has been growing and growing, I have become increasingly more pissed off at everything that comes with it. Yes I know there is good with it but for the most part...no. Example: I HATE the traffic. I HATE the housing prices. I HATE the housing developments that pop up everywhere. I HATE that land is disappearing to said developers and I HATE that land prices are outrageous as well. I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE that my dream to live in the Salt Lake valley with a few acres and a home that WE built is most likely not going to happen because of all the stupid people who keep moving here and by the time Paul and I go to buy land, we will have to move out to F-ing Nephi to do it. AAAAAAAAHHHHHH. I HATE IT. Go back to where you came from and stop moving here. Dammmit. I get madder and madder the more I write and I am sure that I look like an insanely negative person (which is almost true) but DAMMIT!!! I HATE IT!! Therefore - I am insanely pissed off that there are so many people living here now and I have to punch in three extra digits every time I call someone. 385 area code. It changes EVERY. THING. And I HATE (most) change. DAMN. IT.

Daily Rant #4

Yesterday Amanda and Spencer called to see if we wanted to zip on over and play a game- we were all for it. While playing the game we watched the Steelers stomp on the Raven's (which was a really good thing cuz Spencer would have been in a baaaaaaaaad mood, right Mana?). Well a commercial came on - one of a thousand that features Peyton Manning - and I said "That's It!! I have had it with Peyton Manning being on every damn football commercial ever made!!" So I vowed to rant about how much I can't stand that Peyton Manning is everywhere when you are watching football. GURRRRRGGGGHHHHH! Seriously - he's everywhere. The sprint commercial, at least five Mastercard commercials that I can count, the Pep talk ones, the Reggie vs. Peyton, the Peyton and Eli, Sony, Gatorade and I know there is more than that. Granted, the commercials are pretty funny and I may even allow myself to laugh at a couple of them, but it drives me absolutely crazy that he is everywhere. EV-ER-Y-WHERE.

Daily Rant #3

So once you get the ball rolling it's kind of hard to stop it. It's a big big ball. And so I'm already writing another rant. It's no big deal really - just my own personal irritance at something of zero importance but I was driving back to work after my lunch break and was stopped at a red light. A car in the lane next to me started to slow down and come to a stop...eleventy seventy million feet away from the white line. Literally two cars could have fit in front of this stupid lady. I just...wh-...I don't get...I mean, GRRRR! Why do people DO that?? I don't understand it. It really really bugs. Really really.

Daily Rant #2

So, uh, my first 'Daily Rant' was way back in September and I haven't done one since...apparently I am trying to redefine the definition of daily. It's surprising really because I have a lot to rant about so....where are all my rants? Well here is one for you: I can't stand New Years and everyone with their New Years Resolutions. 1) New Years bums me out. You have to start all over and it means you are one year older and one year closer to becoming old and withered and dusty. Boo on that. I don't want to be old. I don't even want to be 40. I want to stay in my mid-to late twenties forever. Getting old sucks - just ask old people. 2) Whyyyyyyyy the big hoo-hah about New Years Resolutions? I have never understood it nor have I ever made one. A person makes short and long term goals all year long - they can do it whenever they want. Then people say "It's a new year so it's a fresh start." WTF? A fresh start is whenever you want to make one. Why does a fresh start have to begin at the start of a new year? Here's a little hint: Time doesn't reset itself at the new year....it keeps going. It is so dumb to me. All this Resolution stuff has been in and out of my mind for the last two weeks and I have been meaning to write about it sooner. People keep reminding me about how much all this stuff bugs me because they get up and bear their testimony about what they are going to do better this year and other people come up and ask me what my New Years Resolution is. K, why do you even care to ask that question and let me guess...yours is to lose weight? Yeah you and eleventy seventy million other people who wait for a "new year and a fresh start" and you will all run out and get gym memberships and the gyms will be overflowing for about three weeks until these people start dropping off like flies - and they will, too. SO RETARDED.

My iPod Will Be Cooler Than Yours

I am going to own this exact iPod on Dec. 25th. I am stoked. My 2nd Gen. iPod broke about two months ago at the end of my run and I was pissed for days because my iPod is always with me. I listen to it all day at work and when I run so I was very mad that a) it broke at all and 2) i hate spending money to replace what i already had - HATE IT (which is why i am so mad that my camera broke because now i have to spend the money to replace that, too and i don't want to spend more money on a digital point & shoot when i am waiting to buy my professional digital camera. why Paul, why?? just kidding, hun) and c) i hate getting replacements for what i already had for a birthday or Christmas. In my opinion, birthdays and Christmas' are for fun things you didn't have before and if you have to replace something you just go out and do it. Don't ask me why i have to wait for Christmas then. Anyway, all the colors they offer for the 3rd Gen. Nano are so fun and awesome and I just can't decide which one I want to be stuck with and since I love black things, this is the perfect one for me. I don't usually get all giddy about Christmas but....I can't bloody wait!!!

My First Tag - Wow. Just...Wow.

So my good friend Becky aka Lou (to me - not to you) tagged me and I feel oh-so-special right now. Since I find myself especially uninteresting, this proved to be quite hard. Ever notice that when you have to find something to share about yourself, you can't think of anything worth sharing? That's me.

1. Most of my close friends already know this about me, but I kind of have a temper. I like to think that over the years I have somewhat tamed said temper and grown some patience -which I have - but I'm human and I get mad and when I get mad I tend to think a little violently. For example, I was leaving work one fine day and a blue corvette with a fat ugly man driving it pulls out right in front of me and proceeds to go as slow as he can. Never mind the fact that there are no other cars behind me. Never mind the fact that I was practically passing him when he pulled out in front of me, forcing me to ride his bumper & then slam on my breaks so that I wasn't. That's mistake #1. Mistake #2 happened when the same fat ugly man decides to slam on his brakes further down the road for no reason except to piss me off even more. He stopped so fast and hard that I had to slam on my brakes and swerve in order to miss him and when I passed him, he turned to me and gave me smirk like a 5 year old would. Fury and hell came out of my eyes and if I had a super power, it would have killed him. Why did I tell you this little story? Because the images of things I wanted to do to this man weren't pretty and later I told Paul about it and I shocked the hell out of him. Let's just say I imagined a lot blood, teeth being mashed into the asphalt and the heel of my stilletos I happened to be wearing poking a hole through his head. Yeah I know - I need therapy.

2. I HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE words/phrases like moist, ointment, tender, mercies, 'tender mercies' and anything else that sounds EXTREMELY GAY. I hate gay words. I hate sayings and phrases that have been repeated countless times. Needless to say, Fast & Testimony meetings equal murder to my ears because 99% of people just get up to tell stories and brag about their children and use words such as "tender mercies." In fact Paul and I call it Story Telling Time cuz it's all anyone ever does. It drives me absolutely insane to listen to "i would be very ungrateful if i didn't get up today" or "i didn't want to come up here but my heart is going so fast that i just knew i had to" or "i just want my husband (blubber, cry, sniff) to know (more blubbering) how much I love (sniff, sniff) him." AAARRRGGGGH. Get some originality people and please shut the F up in the mean time. And for love of all that's holy PLEASE stop saying 'tender mercies.'

3. I love movies but I hate actors. Nice little contradiction since you need actors to make movies but seriously - actors are gay. Even if they are heterosexuals they are gay. If you really stop to think about what it would be like to be on set while shooting a scene and you have to watch an actor/actress suddenly start crying or freak out while they are looking directly into a camera, and then if they have to do it over and over again? Ughh. It's like grown-ups playing make-believe and it bugs me. When I watch a movie, I can't help but wonder about how the scene was shot and how can an actor feel like anything but a retard while talking to a camera while people stand around and watch. I can't stand going to plays for the same reason and I can't stand people who do drama and theatre because most of them are retarded. I know this first-hand from a roommate in college- there really is something wrong with them.

4. I am obsessed with jackets and coats. I have tonz. Every year I end up acquiring two or three new ones and I don't know why. I need shirts to go under those jackets and coats even more than I need the jacket/coat but I still end up with the jacket/coat over the shirt because I just can't resist a kick-ass jacket. Or coat.

5. I can't be around clutter and chaos. It makes me feel claustrophobic and anxious and I tend to freak out a little on the inside. Like for my family's pumpkin carving shin dig - I was a little late and so everyone had already dug into their pumpkins by the time I got there. I had to clean anything off the counter that didn't need to be, wipe up pumpkin guts in unused spaces and throw away paper plates and unfinished soup bowls before I could even think about starting on my own pumpkin.

6. I love music and I love to find music that is not blasting all over the radio. So when I find an amazing artist and that artist happens to find itself on the radio later - I refuse to listen to their song(s) on the radio because then it's over played and I can't risk getting sick of a singer/song that I really love. I do the same thing with the more popularly known singers - like Red Hot Chili Peppers or somebody like that. If I happen to buy their album because I absolutely loved their released song, I never listen to it on the radio because I am going to be pissed if I get sick of that song when I already own the album and I won't want to listen to it anymore.

I apologize that most of that was dark, disturbing and negative. I guess that comes easily to me. Sad. And now I tag 'Mana, Ash-We-Todd, Caryn, Brindee and Mel and if any of you have already done this I apologize and you don't have to do it again. I don't think you will be punished by the Blogger gods.

The Rules for playing TAG:
*Link to the person who tagged you
*Post the rules on your blog
*Write six random things about yourself
*Tag six-ish people at the end of your post
*Let each person know he/she has been tagged
*Let the tagger know when your entry is up

Daily Rant #1

So only after I wrote that waiting for Midnight Sun to be published was hard, I learned that it was only going to get harder. Apparently she has it on hold "indefinitely" due to a leak of her draft of this book. Visit her website http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/ for the details cuz I don't want to take the time. But can I just say how PISSED OFF I am?? To put up a teaser for the book and get everyone hooked on it and excited to go buy a pretty matching book to put up beside all of the Twilight books and then...CRUSH...say you are putting it on hold indefinitely because you feel violated?? Well thanks a lot Stephanie Meyer because now I am mad at you. Life's not fair - it wasn't fair that your copy made it on to the internet without your permission and it's not fair for you NOT to finish it and leave all your fans hanging like you just did. Not a good thing to do to people who have spent their money making you a millionaire and were prepared to do it again. Not a good thing to give people something that they really wanted and then rip it away. I think it's one of the dumbest decisions she ever made. (And I know this sounds like I am an obsessed and crazy die-hard fan - I am not obsessed or crazy but I am a fan and I was looking forward to this book more than I was looking forward to the movie.) The angry me says "F YOU Stephanie Meyer!!!" and the sad me says "Please finish writing it and get it published...pretty please (with sad puppy dog eyes) PLEASE!!! Do IT!! Do It Right Freaking Now!! I will be your WORST nightmare if you don't do this!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh I HATE you right now!!" Oh wait, that was still anger... hmmmm....I must be too angry to feel sad. I am torn though - to read the entire draft on the chances that she may or may not finish or not to read the draft so that it's not ruined for me if she does decide to publish it. Aaaargh.
