Vortexia's Secret

ok, i thought i was done, but i wasn't. i got burned as i was taking my shower tonight. i noticed that there was a little water spewing from the bathtub spout even though the shower was on, so being the environmentally conscious girl that i am, i decided to try to get all the water going through the showerhead. wellll... it only goes so far and then it starts scalding you with fantastically hot water. so it's a good thing that my belly button's photo session was last night and not tonight. i'm sure it will all be back to normal by tomorrow morning, but it still hurts tonight.

tony has inspired me. i've always kind of wanted to write a book, and now it feels more attainable. and he has reassured me that not all authors are pompous, self-involved snobs. i have known a couple people in real life who have decided that they have what it takes to write a few hundred pages worth of plot that masses of people would actually want to read. and honestly, i couldn't stand them. so i developed a theory that authors were great reads, but not worth the hoopla to meet in person. i'm sure there are exceptions, but on the whole that was my belief. he has made me reexamine that and think that maybe these people are the minority for authors, rather than the majority. or maybe it's 50/50. who cares. by the way, i don't think that i "have what it takes," but i figure it would still be an interesting experience regardless. and maybe i could do the cafe press thing and sell 10 copies. maybe even a dozen. and at day's end i would have a pretty little hardcover book sitting on the shelf and the satisfaction of knowing that i wrote that whole damn thing. something to think about. but we'll see. i may be a little too ADD to write a story that long. and i tend to get bored with writing fiction because i think there's more interest in reality if it's interesting enough. and i don't think i have enough great posts to create an entire book of them. but who knows... by the time i get around to this thing i may have enough.

but it's time to get to bed. i was really going to ask if anybody cared to interview me. i thought it might be a fun thing to do. logistics may be a little tricky since i'm back at work tomorrow, but all things are possible. so dust off your press hat and find your little pencil with matching pad of paper...

happy holidays
