nice face, shame about the rest
So what. Maybe I do have a fantasy life that takes place in the highly coveted world of movie stars. It involves beautiful clothes and make-up (on me!) and men (so many men) and interviews and scandals and money. And why not? If I were offered a couple million dollars to repeat bad lines from a bad script and show my body naked - I'd do it. Everyone is so fond of giving actors hard time for selling out. It's just a job. Not everyone is an arteest.
Ok. That was a private addendum to a conversation I had earlier today while drinking coffee at a local coffee shop that will remain unnamed. YES I'm still drinking THEIR mochas. YES I know they are the McDonalds of the coffee world. YES I know they are corporate devils. But I like duplication - don't we all, otherwise there would be no such thing as international food chains.
Anyway, I ran into an old friend at the unnamed coffee shop. Which was kind of nice even though I had gone there with the intent of reading my book while sipping sweet, sweet coffee and chocolate. But, I was happy to see him. This is a guy that I originally met at a coffee shop and then had a rather lengthy fling with almost 10 years ago. He still looks good (actually really good) and the chemistry was still there. That is the chemistry was still there until he opened his mouth. He hasn't changed at all. He is still angry with everyone for everything and views the world as his unfair playground where he can play the worthy pauper. I don't know what I ever saw in him. No, wait. I do know what I saw in him. He was hot. He was loud and outspoken and he had the same opinions that I had when I was 21. There's the key though...when I was 21.
Anyway, he ruined my mocha and wasted my time. He also marred the memory that I had of him being sexy and cool - now I'll remember him as sexy and stupid.

Thanks for the reading material. Not that it was here for me. I got out of bed gulped a bunch of cough syrup down then decided I needed to get out of my mind so I turned on the computer. I can't phone the friends i use to at 3 in the morning anymore.i never use to care if i woke any one up but now i guess i do. not so cute doing that in your mid 30's. I checked msn to see if any friends were up late. checked if anyone posted to my blog. checked my e-mail again even though i checked an hour ago. decided not to check all the sites I visited an hour ago. then i looked at your blog and you had more stuff posted. my mind creeped away letting your words fill those sad crevasses.thanks for your words that weren't meant for me at 3am...
