Draft, for the ugly little duck in me

I remember looking at them, two beautiful young ladies, the younger sister a bit more beautiful, the older more in the know. The younger looked perfect. Again, they were both quite a looker. I remember thinking the guys didn’t look like much. The older sister’s was sharp smart like a knife, the other was kind and so young, most of the time made me think he was a kid. Both were funny. I have never wanted to imagine what was going in the sack. But I remember wondering how come. I guess it’s because life plays in ways I won’t even start to count. The possibilities are endless. That pretty much gives me hope for anything.

Apparently, three competing consortia want me

And I, I feel qualified to wash dishes with the dishwasher.

Casual remark

“I’m sorry, I have just had a sh!t-attack”, she casually said and that made me laugh.

Rise and shine!

Let’s share the good news. I know I have been rather gloomy lately. It’s not like the situation has changed, improved or otherwise affected me in a positive way. But this is a practical exercise, like the research that says smiling makes you feel better. Therefore.

The bathroom sink is now sparkling clean. To follow, the toilet, the tub, the rest of the bathroom. When? Postponed indefinitely.

One of my friends is in love. New love. Less wondering indecission. He made me a music CD. He now makes me want to rest. While the CD is refreshingly audible. All in all a positive deal for all parties involved.

I continue to find dead little bugs, legs up. Which is preferable to finding them crowl. I sprayed the house last weekend, then I have cleaned the floors. I like to walk barefoot in my house. I wonder if the toxic substances are still there and can get to me.

My to do list is continuosly growing, like some sort of alien from outer space in a taste-questionable scary scenario. dsc01057.jpg dsc01060.jpg

Human resources

What is worse than getting a “Thank you very much”-but-”We regret to inform you that, although we were impressed by your experience and skills, we have decided not to proceed further with your application this time.” email? Getting one that says “We have received your CV, would like to meet with you, but there is no telephone number to contact you”.

And getting it two months after it was sent.

Oh well, I have just read mine and it felt like the desk just parted and the void wanted to suck me in.

This ads a new dimension to self-loathing and that lately almost omni-present feeling of incompetence.

I am swamped.

No mind games

Such read one of London’s walls, in a book about graffiti and urban coolture.

But I like to take a cheeseburger to go and eat it in front of the fancy gardens of snobbish restaurants while looking in the plates of honest paying customers, to see if there is any shade of guilt.

Sleepy joke

Clearly I cannot see clearly.

I am learning

So I open the magazine, yes, the un-named one, only to see on the “for him” page the exact t-shirt I was wearing. Now I know why the people were staring.

And still, I cannot believe, there must be something else that caused the savage staring.

Misleading review of the Dark Knight

What can the new Batman say that previous movies of the serie have not already? Can it bring something new?

Oh, well, pretty much like Obama claims, yes, it can! The stunts, the gadgets, the franchise, they’re all there, but this Batman is new not because it is the latest, but because it plays with the simplistic preconception of the positive classic action hero. The line is not blurred, I’d say it is challenged. Yes, you will tell me this has been done before, it’s the whole spiel of the schizo double faced heroes, it’s the quintessence of a hero that needs a mask. Even the title is chosen as a result, the dark knight as opposed to the white knight.

But hear me out here. This Batman is more appealing to me because it left me wondering. Before this Batman we knew exactly the good and bad role plays and how they were cast among the protagonists.  But during this entire movie I have now felt like I was never sure. The good guys turn bad sooner or later, for one reason or another, and the true good guy has to pretend otherwise. So bottom line nobody IS the good guy.

The not so simplist line of bad and good, or bad against good, might not be so easy to digest by the public, but it is definitely an educated trendsetting choice. If the producers bet with this one against Hollywood, they might just win.

And Heath Ledger’s “Hello” in the red wig will make history.
