This, That and the Other!

Is anyone going to watch the Golden Globes tonight? First time in 30 years I'm not watching it and I'm having withdrawal already. No cable = no Golden Globes..or Oscars.

When Mercury Retro kicks in (which was today) that's when most people start to feel the affects. Me? A week earlier. Never fails. Between MR messing things up, my ongoing fight with iTunes & Hipcast (both bastards still say that the podcast problem is the other ones fault), and the "New Kid on the Block" as AJ said:) It's been a headache of a 2009 already.

Plus this last week I'm still catching up on the special priced readings I sold back in Dec.

Oh - and I shoveled snow yesterday (have to do more today) and did something to my lower back. What took me 5 min is now almost 15. SIGH - the wonders of being over 40. This is on top of my pulling a muscle in my upper back when I went to put my hair in a ponytail last Tuesday. Nice....

I watched BURN AFTER READING yesterday. I can't begin to convey my disappointment. How can so much talent come out with so much crap? And the Coen Brothers? WTF? What happened? I wish you could have seen me yelling at my TV - it was funny. Good thing my son wasn't home;)

I'm entering an Indy filmmaker contest. I have only a week or so to write the 1st draft of the script and then only a week to make changes. So if there's no postings this upcoming week (or next) - you know why. But I'll try not to drop off the face of the Earth.

Now for the last week. This was such a WTF - and a WTH every day. I have to thank Chris for this. Now who is Chris? He's to Vincent what Ted is to Bill - and somehow I'm stuck in the middle. Another love triangle. Hell. What in the world did I do in my past lives? When another energy comes in - my body hits the emotional overload until I'm used to that new energy. Plus - I can't sleep. So last week I spent my time either pissed off, crying, or just sitting there without a thought in my head. All of it - not the norm of Allie. When Friday rolled around - I was back to the norm Allie. However - I still can't sleep - so something else must be coming down the pike.

So what's Chris like? Energetic, supportive, creative, kind & loving. Very good friend material. As Vincent stands around and "protects" me - Chris yammers in my ear to have to try this - or try that. It's like Chris pushes me and Vincent protects me. It's nice having them both around - but they have a habit of pulling me in 2 different direction - Chris wanting me to try something and Vincent wanting me to stand still and be safe.

I had a dream visit with them both the other night. They were fighting over who would "get" me. I stepped in the middle and said that I'm not doing this again (referencing Bill and Ted). I pointed to Vincent and said him - he's the one who gets me. Chris is like - what? Wait a minute - I haven't had a chance to prove myself. I told him- not in this life. In this life we're friends and some how you help me with Vincent because you two are already friends in the physical world. Vincent comes up and puts his arm around me - gives Chris a smug look. I punched him and told him to grow up. I can still change my mind - which made Chris smile. I told them that I had things to do and left them standing there - lol.

How did I realize that Chris was part of this whole soul circle thing with me? He kept popping up. Same as Ted did. I'd be in a vision with Vincent - and there he was. Iris said something to me that made the light bulb go off. I asked Andrew if Chris was one of "his" as well. Andrew said no.

Which made me ask Andrew - where's this love life I was supposed to have? He said - it's coming - mid 2009. This news made me roll my eyes. He said that I'll be way to busy till then and everything I am doing career wise is setting me up romantic wise. I told him that I didn't want to know any more. It gives me a headache. He did say though that this upcoming week I should hear something positive abut my career. That works:)

Need to kick my tush into gear.

Have a great - what's left of the weekend !

Crystal Sunshine!
Allie :)
