I have written, before this, exactly 4 entries all year. ALL YEAR!!! Which is pathetic. Brimming over with pathos. It's because I work a 9 hour day PLUS. Not including the time it takes to get to work. Yes., my friends, I must bitch. And bitch hard.
Back in the bad old days of the Civil War, or more accurately, in a book (or miniseries, if we must go there-wait, yes, we must because the quote is from the series.) Okay, here it is: A Northerner and a Southern were having the following conversation,
"Well, I don't see how it's different from slavery, the pain of hunger in a man's belly compels him to work and if this is the only work he can get..."
Exactly.
Yesterday, a man who admired my ass told me that I could work at Hooters (yes, my darling fans, at the tender age of GASP! 45!) I could work at Hooters.
I wonder if I could REALLY get a job at Hooters. I mean really, could I? Would I want to? Hells yeah!
The truth is, I would rather have a real career. But not when I have to work 50 hour weeks. It's not like I'm making 100k plus. I mean, sure the money is pretty good, but really? I just can't fucking take it anymore. But I must. The pain in the belly is a very powerful compellant.
I remain,

The Wrath of Purvis
It was an extraordinarily long meeting of the book club and we were having a Mexican dinner when Purvis cornered me about what I wrote about him.
He was so pissed about what I wrote that I began to wonder what I had done that was so horrible.
When I arrived home, I re-read my earlier post. Nothing too bad. Simply that I was just not going to fuck him. Well, given how he is, no wonder he was insulted. And the big teeth and ultra blondness could hardly be insulting, given that most beauty contestants have those attributes, but again, it IS Purvis, who can be very sensitive, whether he likes it or not!
He had also hinted that what he read, "changed the way" he thought about me, the dig being that NOW he thought so much less of me, despise my literary prowess. Oh. Boo. And Hoo.
But onto the food.
I have recently gone vegan. Mostly. Yes, I have. Get out your whips if you must (and read Eat to Live if you must have an explanation).
The latest craze? Ezekiel flatbread (microwaved for 1 minute) slathered with eggplant hummus on one side and fake cream cheese (from Trader Joe's (TM)), fresh basil and sliced persian cucumber served with a side of baby carrots. YUM! I also have this with a cup of veggie broth. It's delicious.
Another favorite is salad greens with either black or white beans, topped with fig balsamic dressing and/or vegan ranch. Delicious.
Now I have to say, I miss cheese. Particularly the dill havarti that they sell at Trader Joe's(TM). I used to eat that with a combination of raw sunflower seeds mixed with salted pumpkin seeds. Now it's just the seeds.
I am hoping to find some good vegan cheeses out there and I know it's not easy, but I will prevail!

Password Hell
My darling fans, I apologize for my long hiatus, but the computer I was using died and I have been unable to post until I got this new one!
My dad, ever the helpful one, heard my plight and immediately said he'd send me one. Wonders never do cease and for that I am profoundly grateful.
The other thing is that it had been SO long since I've been here, that I had forgotten my password, so I had to create a new one. "fuckyougoogle" was not considered a "safe" password, so I had to come up with something else. Well, I dithered about, lemme tell you, until I settled upon something that I do hope that I will remember the next time I have a hiatus.
At which point, I can imagine the collective groan of my fans. So, let me be clear, I will attempt to NOT have a hiatus any time soon. I hope that this will suffice for you.
So, without further ado, I will away onto my next post.
I remain,
Hilda Stinson
