Im TRYING to finish my novel Green Eyes but right now I am experiencing writers block...so the next few entries will be literary exercises...if you dont like to read...come back in three days lol. And without further ado...i will write until it makes sense....here we go.
What happens when Gods and mortals meet
Where fear and apprehension fleet
And sweet talk lasts from night til dawn
Without a single wearied yawn
How do you make a goddess laugh
When first she comes across your path
With promises she dare not keep
That finally get you back to sleep
How can you not offend the clouds
From wondering these things aloud
Like how can she be satisfied
With such a merely mortal guy
What rights that I would sacrifice
To spend one less than mortal night
With such a goddess once again
Even if she must pretend
Tell lies to me til I'm content
So I can breathe without resent
Since mortal lives are doomed to end
Let mine resign with Goddess friend
And when I'm gone
Return to skies
To conquer other fruitless flies
But handle them with gentle hands
Or crush them like you did this man
Your truth is never true or tried
But just a version of your lie
And those who choose to play pretend
Will never be alone again
What happens when Gods and mortals meet
Where fear and apprehension fleet
The mortal always lives to say
I curse the day she flew away

The Casting Director Game
So...im at work daydreaming about jobs I'd rather have. Today I wish I was a casting director for big hollywood films. Get to hobnob (that word is in the dictionary, by the way) with all the celebrities and live in the tragic irony that is working in such a hollow and depressing business that produces a finish product so full and inspiring to others (trust me, i know from experience), but I digress.... *thought bubble* It would probably go a little something like this.....
BLACK MAN starring Wesley Snipes
Tagline: They thought nothing could be darker than the night...
Plot: Harold Jenkins is a mild mannered Karate Instructor by day, but by night he stalks the streets as BlackMan, a half man half shadow hell bent on keeping the streets clean. He doesnt have to lurk in the shadows...he is one.
MR. T GOES TO SCHOOL starring Questlove
Tagline: He pities the fool who doesn't think learnin' is cool
Plot Summary: Mr. T is going back to school and hes bringing the PAIN! Opting for a more peaceful life than the A-Team could provide, T decides to become a high school gym teacher. He soon finds that running away from explosions and busting heads was the easy part...Teenagers are hard!
REDEMPTION starring Chris Brown & Elmo
TAGLINE: Theres always a first time for a second chance
PLOT SUMMARY: Chris Brown had it all, money, fast cars, and a legion of adoring fans. The sky was the limit until one fateful night everything changed. Broken and alone, Brown hits rock bottom as a janitor at the Sesame Street School of Arts. It is there under the instruction of the strict but caring Elmo, Brown learns that even if you can't see a star shining it still a star.
MANnequin starring R. Kelly
TAGLINE: No Refunds, No Exchange, No Escape
PLOT SUMMARY: Somethings very wrong in Little Susies girls department store when young girls continue to disappear without a trace. When Detective Randy Cheeks is assigned to the case he goes undercover as a store mannequin to get to the bottom of this eerie case.
A Shot On Tequila: The Documentary
TAGLINE: A good STIFF comedy.
PLOT SUMMARY: She's everyone's favorite....well...the very well liked...uhmm...the amazing actress...ok uhhh...a capable singer...no uhhh...ok lets try this again. The most untalented annoying and self obsessed woman in the world has produced a film about the cause she cares about most. Herself. Follow Tila as she sits at home and tweets all day about being a superstar. Bonus footage includes 15 minute long outtake reel, some would call it her career.
And lastly for today would be
HEAD OVER WHEELS starring Matthew McConnawhatever his name is and Kate Hudson
TAGLINE: He drives a car, she rides a bike...but that wont stop them from falling Head over wheels!
Plot: Its basically just Matt talking in his southern drawl and smiling stupidly for 2 hours...like all the rest of his movies.
Ahhh the possibilities..... *thought bubble closed* Sigh...guess i should get back to work.

10 Random Thoughts @ Work
1. Where is Joe Biden?
2. Would twitter have been so successful if they had named it after the sound of another animal? I can't exactly see myself "meowing".
3. One of the best feelings in the world are a pair of new socks. Its like moving into a fresh white house with brand new carpet...ahhhh new socks.
I went to college and all the kids who had guitars had really cute girlfriends. So I bought one and stood on campus holding it. A really cute girl came up to me and asked me how long I was gonna wait before I played a song for her. I replied, "That depends. How long does it take to learn how to play guitar?" she walked away. Now I just carry a boombox like Radio Rahim. The girls are less cute and wear a lot of gold chains.
5. I don't care WHAT animal lovers say, MY MOUTH is cleaner than a dog or a cats. I sat and watched a dog lick his own balls for 11 minutes one day. As to why I watched for the entire 11 minutes, it was a slow day at work but thats besides the point. I also so a cat lick his own butt....I know what comes out of there...thats not so clean.
5a. Well, now that I think about it, some adults are partial to licking butts
too. It used to be so black and white when I was talking about cats and
dogs, but now you throw humans in and its gray to me. Moral of the story
if you MUST lick a butt...brush and Scope it people.
6. If you are in the NBA and get paid MILLIONS to play basketball, you should be fined 5000 dollars EVERY TIME you miss a FREE throw. It's an open shot. If you cant make an open shot 15 feet away from a basket (and you are ONLY on average 3.5 feet shorter than the basket....you shouldn't be a ball player).
7. I was watching an episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with a four year old on Monday and as a grown up i had a few questions. You mean to tell me that while people found it odd that there were these 6 foot muscular surfer talking, karate chopping, pizza eating turtles that lived in the sewer...NOBODY found it strange that shredder was a 6 foot man in a purple Under Armour shirt, a cape, and a mangled trash can on his head? Also,...why would SIX FOOT MUSCULAR SURFER TALKING, KARATE CHOPPING, PIZZA EATING TURTLES need to wear masks...chances are they are prolly the only ones out there. What the hell was Krang?
8. Does anyone know exactly WHY we were even looking for Waldo? I mean you go through all that trouble and once find him you turn the page. Thats kinda dumb, especially if he owes you money.
9. Whoever thought of musical chairs was a horrible party host. I play this annoying and very often VIOLENT game and all I win is a chance to sit down? I hate contests where you dont really win anything. I'm sure they also invented the Pepsi Challenge
10. Where is Ananda Lewis? And what happened to Teen Summit?
