'I kick arse for the Lord!' ...and other musings

[neverwhere]

Yes, I saw Dead Alive aka Brain Dead aka The Goriest Horror Film Ever Made last night. And it was good. *grins*

So what else has been happening in my little world lately?

-- I was finally promoted to Shift Leader at Hollywood Video, thank the Great Green Arkleseizure. Not that it's made much difference financially, as I'm still being paid at my sales rep salary. Grrr! But hey, it's not as if my one ambition in life is to be a manager at a video shop. Yikes. *shudder* ;-)

-- Still working my two jobs on weekends, and slowly but surely going insane.

-- ComicCon goodness I forgot to mention: I was featured on AdultSwim's website and was on tv! I talked to Hockey Chicken on the phone while being videotaped and shown live on the web (whooot!), plus I saw myself in the background on VH1's Best Week Ever feature about the Con. How cool is that! I love that show even more now.

-- Films I have seen: Spider-Man 2 (twice! ALL HAIL SPIDEY), Fahrenheit 9/11 (so brilliant, god bless Michael Moore), De-Lovely (wheeee Kevin Kline!), and while technically not a film I did finally watch Cowboy Bebop, which I'm sure will make coppinggoggles very happy. *G*

-- I was offered a job at Technicolour Creative post-production house in Hollywood, but sadly had to turn it down as the hours were intolerable (10pm-6am) and I have no life as it is. But the exceedingly nice manager hinted that there might be other job openings in the future and would keep me in mind for them. Ohpleaseohplease. *crosses fingers and hopes*

-- My poor car was hit from behind last week on the motorway, and the whole left side is completely smashed. Woe. Thankfully it was without a doubt the other driver's fault and I will either have a fully repaired car or a brand new one soon.


...And I'm spent. :)

LOL - want to work your shift leader magic and get them to hire me? I never DID hear back!

That's awesome about the whole being on tv thing! That was just such an awesome weekend for everyone I think...even though me and everyone I talked to came home from San Diego with the flu etc.

I saw De-Lovely too and all I could think was *blink* John Barrowman is in that movie. Jenn + John Barrowman = OTP...even if he's gay. *LOL*

DeLovely! Tell me about DeLovely! I heart Cole Porter and Kevin Kline but it's not playing out here! Was it good? How much of the music was in it, if any?

Bleaaaaah for dead cars, but yaaaaaaay for being able to prove that it was someone else's fault and they must fix it.

You really need a new job. I still say you should get one that involves talking to/dealing with famous people, one way or another. I've never met anyone as good at networking as you. Wow.

Yay, Brain Dead/Dead Alive! It's teh funny, which is about the only reason why I will watch a splatter movie. (I prefer horror movies that gets my adrenaline a-flowing rather than ones that turn my stomach.) Have you seen Meet the Feebles? I loved that movie. Haven't gotten around to seeing Bad Taste yet, though. Must do something about that soon.

Congratulations on the promotion. Just don't work yourself to death, m'kay. Sloth is a highly underrated deadly sin, IMHO.
