Boring

Yes, I know I should just shut up and be happy that I have a job... its a paycheck I can make rent and I can make my car payments. Yay me.
Not all radio jocks dream of doing the same pre-recorded crap every single day (and if you do then you probably suck, just saying...) but I love what I do when I can do it live and have fun! Cause really that's what this career is all about.
The job is essentially controlled chaos, it satisfies the wound-up need to be planned side of me and the goofy side of me!
I get so bored here, bored to the point of exhaustion ... I want to scream, climb the walls or pop out of my skin!
I am in the process of revising my resume and getting the F outta here!
Wish me luck!

"Home"

This is me, bored, not much to say or do out here in Godforsaken. I did learn from my neighbor that at one point my house, nicknamed The Murder House, was condemned. The piping is all rotting out so that's fun to deal with. Also at one point this house was planned on being torn down. 
Oh well, I don't feel like I have much to complain about its a roof over my head, a yard for the dog and the heat works (the jury is still out on the air conditioning) plain and simple its really tough to find a place to live out here so you take what you can get when you can get it.

Book

So I have been kicking around this idea for a while of a book. It started out as a kids book there the idea is Teddy Bears protect your dreams. All the teddy bears in the neighborhood would sneak out in the night to their secret lair and monitor the kids' dreams so they could enter and stop any bad ones.

Then I had a thought of Gnomes vs Teddy Bears! And the epic battle that would ensue over the course of a series! But I don't know my target audience for that one. I want it to be dark and sinister but as an adult novel who would take it any sort of serious? So do I dumb it down and write for a pre-teen audience?

I have no answers yet. I am just going to start writing and see where it will take me. I will share some excerpts as they become available.

The Move

             I will be honest about how I’ve been feeling, no point not to be honest right?  My career is all about letting people into my head, heart and general world… so I may as well get used to it.

           

Since moving to the nicknamed “Godforsaken” I have been feeling betrayed, lonely and depressed.  Betrayed by my not ex-boyfriend, lonely in that I live in a tight-knit rancher town that doesn’t like “outsiders” and also the fact that my idiot boss lied to me about the position and I am doing nothing that I was told I would be doing so a lot of frustration there and boy does he micromanage! 

           

I live in a house with a big yard so that is good… but the house is nicknamed “The Murder House” because it looks like a serial killer lived here before me, at least the water works! 

So after a disappointing day at work to an empty murder house it’s super nice to walk in to a wagging tail and cold nose and kissy tongue!  Essy is great because she makes me feel better about things.  We have a great connection and she knows when I am sad or anxious.  Even when I get teary over a sappy TV show she gets in my face to give me kisses until I laugh and when I’m anxious or irritated she lays across my chest and snuggles her head on my shoulder and just relaxes with me. 

Dogs are great for every occasion and just gives love and expects nothing in return.  Just scratches, play and walk!

And this link pretty much says it all!  Oh and GREAT show by the way!

I know!  I haven't written in forever!  And for those of you who are at the edge of your seats just waiting for something new (I know there are SOOO many of you!) I am around, working on some things, have a lot of homework, full time job and blah blah blah... but again, I promise I'm plugging away at some posts here and there!
