July 12th, 2006make a decision
Sometimes I find myself completely devoid of interesting content, and it’s those times that I think to blog would be pointless.
Then there are other times when so many different things hit me all at once and I find myself craving an outlet and yet completely stumped.
Should I write about… no, I should… no, I mean I just did… wait, who reads this again? Argh, that’s a bitch. Sigh.
Kat and I were having this discussion the other night (over Singhas and extremely spicy Thai food—for me, tame stuff for her, lol), that once you start being less anonymous to friends and family, you really tend to find yourself curbing what you want to say. Or rather, I do, probably more so than her.
I find it hard to talk openly about why I left my job… I won’t discuss conversations I have with my sister or how I feel about her boyfriend… I refuse to comment on dates I have and people I’ve met who interest me… and why? Why? Because.
Because they read this. Who? They. Them. Some who matter, some who don’t… but always someone. There’s always someone who could read this and who I could hurt or insult… or who could hurt me, depending on what I say. And that’s a tough pill to swallow.
So I stay safe and I don’t write about getting screwed by my job, or that I don’t like her boyfriend, or that I might’ve met someone who interests me.
Instead?
I am addicted, just freaking ADDICTED, to Project Runway. These people are bloody insane and it’s fantastic.
I love the Tide commercial with Kelly Ripa and her husband. No matter how many times I’ve seen it, I always smile. I think she has that effect on most people.
The two interviews this week went so well that I’m afraid I’m going to have to choose. At the same time, I don’t want to jinx it, so I refuse to talk about it or think about it. (Yeah, well done huh?) 😛
And oh yeah, this post has taken an hour to write, simply because I’ve had two IM conversations going on and I’m watching the premiere of Runway.
Highly nuts, eh?
hey… it wasn’t THAT tame… and don’t spread lies about how hot or not my food is… they’ll take away my asian id card.
and i do too curb what i say. and to hell with other people. if they can’t accept that what you think is what YOU think, they shouldn’t read, NOR should they be upset. i mean… as long as you don’t tell people any glaring secrets such as a fetish for latex and applesauce, i think you’re safe. everyone is entitled to an opinion, and you chose to voice yours here. so voice it.
oh and though i don’t have a sister by blood, i’ve learned that boys should/can never get between sisters (ew not that way) so if you should be able to talk to said sister. ya’know?

Totally tame you wuss! 😛
I’m voicing, I’m voicing… and you partially inspired it, so just take your applesauce fetishism and go back to your playhouse. ;P
And I can talk to the sister, but that doesn’t mean they listen, you know?

I would have to classify Project Runway as a reality show and, therefore, it must be destroyed.

you consider fashion in america a reality? have you looked around lately? i consider it more fiction and oftentimes more scifi…

If you were really curbing what you say you wouldn’t have admitted to watching Project Runway… 🙂

My friend Jack has recently made the observation that only Americans could create the genre of reality television as a vehicle to escape from reality.

But it’s a good show.. or rather, the first couple of seasons were. Now it’s getting trashy, which sucks. 🙁 Still, it’s soo good.
Le Will.. LOL. Good point eh?
G.. your friend Jack sounds bright.

All my friends are bright, in one form or another.

I haven’t see Runway but I think “Devil Wears Prada” is very funny. Especially the “no difference between the two belts” thing. I am so not into fashion — usually buy 6 of something I like and wear them forever — but it is interesting to have a look into that universe.
