    Discovered a previously unvisited Mexican fast food place on the way to the crepes place and had a very delicious burrito, followed by Nutella, custard and strawberry crepe.
    Photo shoot was entertaining with neither of us remembering things we should, but it was an enjoyable evening and the timelapse equipment worked and there should be at least one salvageable shot in there.

    :D

    Haters 'gon hate. What can you say? I'm looking forward to the Messi vs. Pirlo showdown.

    Any danger of a photo? Or is it too 'personal?'

    In circles in which I orbit, the saying goes, "Pics, or it didn't happen". I concur - any chance of a pic? :D

    Summer is now in full swing and as it seems I'll be spending the rest of the summer down at my dad's house on the Cape. I'll be losing weight and hopefully getting a summer job.

    Also, I got four new CDs in the mail today!

    I'm pleased because I bought my very own State of Decay for the XB1 and fixed the internet problem on my computer. Turns out the Wi-Fi driver couldn't recognize itself due to a common bug found in the Windows 8 systems.

    I post in the unhappiness thread constantly, so this is weird for me ... but here I am! I had two meetings with two contacts today, both of which I was under the impression were more like, lets get together and be friends meetings.

    Turns out they both want me to work with/for them. One is part-time and incorporates writing, and the other is in the industry of my current day job, but the owner is totally happy to give me 1 day off in the middle of the week to work on my writing endeavors.

    It's rare that everyone wants a piece of me, so I'll take it while I can get it. :cool:

    Is your day job as a model or an angel?

    HA!

    At 4'11 the idea of modeling went through the window before it could be considered. Though I do work in the field of vanity, even still.

    I'm a hair stylist. So, my clients would probably tell you that I'm an angel. ;)

    Ranting and letting out your frustrations is always fun, but it becomes quite a wonderful thing when you have a supportive community that relates to you, or at least attempts to lighten the mood with a little humor.

    I'm talking about you, peeps of WritingForums.org - stay brutal, and never ever change.

    Lol, more like the "long winded with a limited stature" section. Aren't we fresh, today? ;)

    Lol. You couldn't pay me all the money in the world to be 15 again. However, if I were still 15, I'd be a lot more melancholy than I am today, and my screen name would be in the general theme of death with several X's and 6's in it. :D

    Happiness is bacon and eggs with baked beans on toast and a hot cup of coffee for breakfast.

    You lost me at baked beans on toast. However, I can get down with bacon dipped in refried beans.

    Texican style. :cool:

    It was bacon and eggs on toast with beans next to it - can't stand soggy (pre-digested) bread / cake / anything!! but yes, I am no saint when it comes to slum foods hah! It's a diet - and the beans have good fibre and I enjoy the balance they provide with their sweeter sauce to the bacon saltiness and the fluffiness of the eggs.
