Back Again
Getting lit up on raspberry wine and feeling like I need to communicate. It's been several days since I wrote anything for WyW5, and seeing as the number of folks that have scooted past on this rag now numbers in the hunnert and teens, I suppose I should bother again.
Movies seen since last post: A Decade Under the Influence (neat, but light), Teaching Mrs. Tingle (awful even with the amazing Helen Mirren), Laurel Canyon (great because of Frances McDormand's character - whom I wish were a real person I could go and visit), Richard Pryor's Here and Now (what's the big deal? He wasn't that funny), Chris Rock's Bigger and Blacker (hysterical and pointed), Gypsy 83 (with the slurpable Sara Rue - a great coming-of-age film that gets it right), Shaun of the Dead (laugh-out-loud great), and Napoleon Dynamite (utterly amazing!).
What else? Not a whole hell of a lot, sadly. Still unemployed, although that may change next week. Question: why do people who counsel folks on career changes and Getting That Great New Job charge so effing much for their services? If we were all wealthy enough to afford career change seminars that cost 2 grand a pop, none of us would ever need career changes. It's like you're paying someone to short-circuit your own psyche. Because the actual swag you get with these packages if sold separately wouldn't even run you 100 bucks, much less 2 grand. I'm referring to Robin Ryan here specifically - go to www.robinryan.com to see her list of fabulousness with the appropriate pricing attached. Turns out she's some superwoman in the career industry who hobnobs with Oprah and Dr. Phil. You get a CD, a couple of inspirational books, and like, an hour of counseling with her most ritzy package. Big fucking deal! Not enough whores cost that much! I could go drop a c-note on a working girl in Seattle and feel even better about myself than blowing an entire month's wages on some feel-good career choice meet and greet.
I'm just bitter, that's all. Not to mention that Robin Ryan looks suspiciously like Dina Martina, local drag queen legend of Seattle's cabaret scene. Hmm.... why don't I let you compare and see for yourself: http://www.cloudroomstudio.com/cloudroom/music/dina%20martina/dinapics/picdisk%20presidents.jpg (Dina Martina)
and Robin Ryan....http://robinryan.com/images/top_robin.jpg
Anyway, that's all for now. More movies to watch, such as The Ref, Saved, and the Son...
bye kidlets.
