i will never be a star

Last night my teacher said that writers are the type of people who think of what they should have said after they left the party. That is 100% me. I often go home and start rewriting conversations in my head (I have a knack sometimes for remembering exactly word for word conversations I've had if they mean something to me, I swear by their accuracy, but I oft wish that these conversations went differently, or that I said what I meant or what I felt, or that I wasn't too afraid to talk). Sometimes years later I am still trying to change what I said but I'm not one of those people who can start believing something that didn't really happen. In my head I can go back and say yes to taking that walk on your birthday, I can tell my guidance counselor in grade school that they were just stories, I could say I like you or I love you or I want you. I can never think of anything to say in the moment.

When I got home from class last night (after, of course, watching taped AI and ANTM) I flipped around and got suckered into a Walk in the Clouds, which is a cheesy sappy movie but made me cry. At one point the guy gave Mandy Moore a star named after her. I've always wanted my own star but it's not the type of thing you buy for yourself, it's the type of thing the cute charming guy in a movie will buy for the awkward sweet girl so she'll fall in love. I looked it up online, and I guess to no real surprise, this whole naming a star thing is all a scam. None of it is official or anything. Basically you're just buying a piece of paper. I will never be a star. This made me cry.

In other news, to all those who celebrate steak and blow job day, someone invented this: Cake and Cunnilingus Day! Let's celebrate!

In other news, Ed Gein's property in Wisconsin is for sale. If I had an extra $250,000 to spare I would so buy it. For those not in the know, Ed Gein is the great American serial killer hero who killed people and made people suits who inspired such films as Psycho and Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Silence of the Lambs. Although MattH was against my wasting my money, he did say I should open a horror museum, as long as he got stock options and free admission.

i've always had an urge to watch that movie, but never the balls to go through with it.

with this cake crap girls' get 2 days to guys' 1. that was the whole point to the steak one, girls have valentines day

Sid: from the website:
"Valentine's Day is for lovers, no matter what their gender. It's about emotion, about committment, about relationships."
I have no commitment, I have no relationship therefore Valentines day kind of sucks for me, not that I have anyone to help celebrate this day, but I had some coffee cake for breakfast and it was damn yummy. I'll take volunteers for the other half.

Heather, the movie was really dumb but was still sad because, well, all such movies are sad. Especially mvoies where there is really no way that it can end up happily ever after.
