I think it's been a week since I last updated. It's now March 3...and I realized looking at the dates that time does fly by rather quickly.

This week is going okay so far, two days in a row subbing elementry school, I think i'll go crazy if I have another day like this one. These kids are like monsters, it amazes me that people willingly have children. I had kids cryign on me today because I wouldn't let them read outloud, because I took away minutes from recess, because some boy cut in front of her and I made them both go to the back of the line...it's endless. I think I'm rather good at making kids cry. :(

My mom assures me that kids that age cry very easily and should not worry so much.

She wasn't there....

Anyway, right now I'm having a writers dilemma and I desperately need a beta read who can tell me what isn't working but I don't know where to find someone willing to read through what I've already posted on the internet and then this new stuff I'm thinking of adding and comparing it to what I already have. it's driving me nuts at the moment. I'm probably going to have to spam mailing lists begging for beta readers and I know out of the 3 or 4 people who respond, maybe 1 will actually send something back saying they read the story. :(

So as of this moment, I'm going on my own judgement and I think the story is giong to be much much longer because I think what I'm doing at the moment might make a better story in the long run. I think I overkilled on the angst in the first 4 parts of my story.

I'm still excited about finishing the story but the lazy part of me just wants to post what I already have and be done with it.

I don't know if all writers feel this way... or just the really lazy writers. :)

My MOM is a GODESSS of cooking! :) she made Crispy tacos and I think I hurt myself eating too many but it was worth it. :) I think this food is about the most unhealthy thing a person can ingest and still survive. But it was so delicious. :)

so I'm a happy camper tonight. We might even have a chance to watch Whale Rider. I checked it out on Saturday and we also got about 6 other films nad the only ones we haven't seen yet are Whale Rider and Freddy vs Jason (my older brother's pick) I would have prefered to get Lost in Translation...

Anyway, mom is currently watching Gilmore Girls...I can't wait until tomorrow night when Angel and Smallville come on, and strangely enough Enterprise.. (worst star trek ever, but I really like Trip)

Angel...has gone weird again. I just hope they don't kill off Fred I really liked her and Weasly getting together. :( I'm very disapointed that they've canceled the series. :( soon I own't have anything good to watch on TV. :(

First they get rid of Invisible Man, then Farscape, Buffy, Highlander, and now it's going to be Angel and Stargate SG-1. :( I hate that they are replacing my favorite shows with reality TV. I think Eco challenge is the best reality tv I've ever seen. It's real people on a real race for a real prize. None of that voting crap like what they have on surivor. What they should do is say last person surviving wins the prize nad drop people off in god forsaken parts of the world and the last person to call in for help or medical aid, wins the prize. Now that would make interesting TV.
