Mighty Optical Illusions
I bet you thought I gave up already!? Not so fast...
This should be in my Places of Interests, but I only thought of it today as it came up in conversation...and I've been browsing the site for a couple hours! Yes, this is what my Saturday nights have become:
Mighty Optical Illusions
This is the kind of blog I need...I don't think my daily ramblings are going to be enough to sustain this blog (although I love reading about other peoples lives, nosy as I am)...I need a hook!

Parties are F-U-N
Parties are a lot of fun, but mostly when they're at someone else's house! For about a week before your party, you're calling people, emailing them, trying to determine if some of your friends are even alive based on the response from them.
Seriously, people, a simple yes or no. In fact, it's the easiest choice in the world, you don't even have to choose. Say 'maybe'. Even if you decline and your other plans fall through, I'll still let you in. My guest list is not as exclusive as some 'downtown suburban' clubs!
I'm a woman of many lists, so I've got my who's in for dinner and what they're bringing, who's coming later so we have enough chairs, things I need to buy, things to fix around the house, things I've neglected to clean because no one ever sees them anyways.... (thanks to a much missed co-worker, I now will never forget that you put a period after an ellipse at the end of a sentence, thank you Grammar Queen)
Today will be non-stop cleaning, mowing, and setting up. Tomorrow will be non-stop putting away (next time I should just leave it away, amuse yourselves and eat with your hands), picking up garbage from the lawn I just mowed (which if I hadn't done in the first place, I wouldn't notice the garbage), and cleaning...all while hungover! But the drunk part is the best part, when you no longer care that people are wearing shoes in your house, spilling pop on the hardwood floors, strategically placing Doritos on your dining room shelves...yes, I got up on a ladder yesterday and found those remnants from the last party! As I said, cleaning places no one ever sees anyways! Let's party!

Better and Betterer
Do you know how hard it is to write something interesting every day, when your life really doesn't change much from day to day?! Oh well, this is some kind of experiment for me anyways. Maybe it will go nowhere, maybe I'll give up in a couple weeks like I do with most new hobbies.
One interesting thing I forgot about yesterday...lunch was at a Chinese buffet, and when the fortune cookies came mine said something about me becoming an "accomplished writer". This is really quite funny because I have never really been partial to writing. In high school, English was always my least favourite subject. Maybe it was the forced topics that got to me because I've also never really been partial to being told what to do!
But I have been told I can write some funny stuff sometimes. I would love to start my own magazine one day. Mostly because I would love putting it together, but I could probably write one kick ass editor's letter each month!
