I will be off for a few weeks.  But, I am sure I'll be coming back around by January.  Need a vacation! 

So, all of you ... take care of yourselves ... and have a wonderful holiday season!

E-MAIL ...

I was checking out "La Jaula De Vidrio" ... which is a spanish blog I love to visit.  So I linked to one of the sites he has on his blog and I found an entry talking about G-mail.  Which ... seriously I could care less about ... but check this out.  Want to have the world's longest e-mail address.  I know I would.  So I got one.  Check out this e-mail address ...

Chartreuse@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijk.com

So, if you want one all for yourself ... well ... go to this site and sign up for a free account.  Just for the heck of it.

Now go and get one.  And have fun!

YUMMY ...

I come back from training with the boss ... and the office is filled with Hickory Farms gift baskets ... See's chocolates and tubs of tri-flavored popcorn.  I am PIGGING OUT!  YES!

Ah ... and then everyone is leaving at around 3 p.m. for the office Christmas party.  I opted out though ... but will be leaving at 4.  YAY!  I can't wait to get out of here.  And, I can't believe Christmas will come next week.  Geesh ... where did the year go?

Well ... I'm out ... gonna go get me some chocolate ... and cheese with crackers.  Mmmmm.

SUGAR ...

Well I finished "The Fuck-Up" the other evening ... reading it in bed ... and the ending just was a total surprise.  Now I am going to concentrate on "The Crimson Petal And The White" by Michel Faber.  I have to admit that what got me first was the cover.  Looks to be borrowed from Renaissance art.  Then I saw the words National Bestseller on the top ... hmmm ... I looked on the back cover for the synopsis:

Meet Sugar, a nineteen-year-old prostitute in Victorian London who yearns for escape to a better life.  From the brothel of the terrifying Mrs. Castaway, she begins her ascent through society.  Beginning with William Rackham, a perfume maganate whose lust for Sugar soon begins to smell like love, she meets a host of lovable, maddening, unforgettable characters as her social rise is overseen by assorted preening socialites, drunken journalists, untrustworthy servants, vile guttersnipes, and whores of all kinds.

After reading that I was won over.  I am halfway through it right now, and hopefully I'll finish it by the time Monday rolls around.  But, anybody want my copy of "The Fuck-Up" ... e-mail me if you do ... I'll send it to the first person to e-mail me requesting as much with their address at elizabeth.x.mendoza@lausd.net.  I'll even pay the postage ...

CONFUSION ...

Well, it seems that many of my subscribers were ... confused with the skin.  So I took it off for now.  Things seem to be settling down in my "world" for now as well too.  The world is insane at times.  And it gets me in a dizzy spin at times. 

Crazy is as crazy does I guess ... LOL!  I don't even know what I'm typing now.  I think the pain meds I am taking for my kidney infection are messing with my mind.  LOL!

I should just get back to work now and let my mind get back to the routine ... have a great day everybody!
