MOST OFTEN USED EXPRESSIONS: Throw a bunch of curse words together and you have it, "Will you kids PLEASE be quite for a minute?", "What'd I do?",
"Shhh. X-Files.", "If I only talked when people asked me questions, I'd never say anything.", "Quit screaming, jeez."
Two years ago, we got a boxer/beagle puppy. Since then, "You stupid m*$%!r f&*$%(* dog!" has become a common expression of mine. We have a second dog now, named Jayne, the Big Damned Dog. He's as dumb as a rock. Luckily for him, he's lovable.
With the cancellation of Joss Whedon's Firefly, another common expression has become "That's still on." when I'm passing pretty much any program I can't stand, like any reality show, or Dawson's Creek (I have to amend this - I caught hooked on Dawson's Creek when it was on TBS every freaking day, and now I'm looking to get it on DVD).
OCCUPATION: "Homemaker" is what I put on forms. I don't get paid enough for what I do.
For those interested. I'm also ordained. So you can call me Reverend. I've
had three different items published, so I'd like to think I can now add
part-time semi-professional writer guy.
November 26, 2005 - I've submitted a first draft for an actual game sourcebook. wish me luck.
Update - manuscript is in the hands of the art folk now, so it'll have pretty pictures. And another article has been accepted by Pyramid.
NOTABLE LIFE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Winning a couple of medals and trophies in wrestling, Fathering children, Not killing anyone, Opening for
N.O.T.A., and doing a house party with Flipper, Having a girlfriend for 12
years, 11 months, and 24 days. Realizing that I didn't hate people that were not white, but instead that I just hated most people, just for being them.
