A most unusual day...for a blog..

I was going to post more story..but life interrupted me..right now..Let me begin with all the unusual things that have occurred today..where to start where to start.

1. The decided to grant me unemployment...(thanks guys..I took the first crap job I could find..cos I was scared..and now I have money coming in)

2. The people at work seem to think I look like Lois Lane in Lois and Clark...Anyone here agree..I'm not sure if I should be complimented or insulted...sadly enough...I've been compared to Monica Lewinsky...and Winona Ryder..at times..even Pheobe Cates..but certainly not Lois Lane...I'm so confuzzled...

3. Sent my mom off to the ER...she was having chest pains...and thankfully it wasn't her heart...(small miracles) But they are keeping her overnight for observation..she had something not normal in her pancreas...I always knew my mother wasn't normal...LoL..but I love my mum...

So yes...all in all..I've had a crappy Friday..Hopefully tomorrow is better..all I want to do..is sleep and listen to my new Costello bootlegs...I need all the joy and relaxation I can get...If things get back to normal..there will be more story tomorrow sometime..but I'm not making any promises...

Quotable Costello

Pictures!!

Ok...while studying and burning and writing I found this lovely little picture...that I just had to share with you...It's too cute not to..



Isn't he just the most darling man?

Oh look and it's his evil twin..Greg Proops...well his evil younger brother...maybe




I'll leave you to drool now..

Quizzes..I thought I was out of school

Ok..kidlets,

I have a quiz tomorrow in training...so I'm in lurk mode tonight...IM me..but I might not be able to talk..plus I really want to work a bit on my story..Oh and fuck the people who don't like it...cos to use the words of mr. costello..."And if you still don't like my song (read story) Than you can just go to hell...I don't care if I'm right or wrong or if my type writer can spell"

Oh and if any of you want to be a vampire..I suggest you click here
Right now I'm a fresh corpse..However did this webpage know that?

Oh and it's completely fucking cold out now....It's official..we get no spring or fall now...Just Summer and Winter!!! PAH! I have to say, I never really enjoyed the winter part much. Driving in snow sucks...and we may get some flurries this week..

I think I'll send them to my friends in Lo Cal...cos you deserve it! Snow to all of you!! Including Greg Proops..cos then I could warm him by the fire!! Hot cocoa with marshmellows for me and Greggie!! Yeee Haaaaaa

I hope to blog some more story shortly...so until then kidlets

Random Musings

Well hola and good evening my pookies!

I'm burning yet more cds tonight..I want to finish up a few trades...then I'm going to work on the story some more in the next few days...I was trying to edit my template here at the blog..but I can't seem to find one I like as well as this one...Unfortunately I lost my html code for the shout outs..

I may or may not put those back on the page...haven't decided yet...

Did any of you watch Whose Line tonight? Mr. Proops looked smashing..as always..and it seems he's still wearing his tinted lenses...ooo la la...Mr Proops is stylin....

Unfortunately Mr. Proops is not being used to his full potential on the show...I really think Whose Line is becoming a waste of his time...I wouldn't be surprised if he relocates to Britain where his talents are more appreciated...How is it..this country can't love his intelligence and sharp wit? What the fuck is wrong with the people here!!!

Oh..and I saw Ghost Ship this weekend...why did a film that had a plot with such promise...and such potential have to be so...well not bad..but just not good. I think it really should have gone into more detail about the supernatural scavenger..etc...and how he went about his work...Instead..they went a totally unfrightening route...and they didn't even make the film scary..

I'd say you could take a 10 year old to this film..and the only thing that would disturb him would be...some naked boobs toward the end of the film..



I hate it when movies are disappointing...

I guess I'll just have to wait patiently for Harry Potter.

Questiony Poo

Well I have yet another question to pose to you readers...

If our Alaina is to have a happy ending to her story...Somebody's wife is going to have to die....leave or turn lesbian...I think I have a nice chemistry going between Alaina and Greg....but we also have the relationship between Alaina and Declan...

So...it could either be JenCat or the CaitMonster...

hmmm and even more fun...what to do with her....

maybe perhaps Alien abduction

So shout out what you think I should do with the wives!!!

Going to the Movies...Squee

Well good afternoon Peeps and kidlets...

I'm off to see the movie Ghost Ship shortly...I haven't been to a movie...since..hmmm I'm not sure when..MIB2 maybe...For some odd reason I'm watching SNL on Comedy Central. I don't really know why...I've never really enjoyed the shows..but oddly I've been drawn to them lately..

Could be from the lack of Proopsie goodness in my life right now....God knows..if the 13 days of Halloween aren't up soon on ABCFam I'm going to go batty...No Drew's line..in weeks...

On a happier note, I'm getting beaucoups of Elvis Costello bootlegs...Soon I will know the complete joy of having most of the Spinning songbook tour on cd... Oh happy day! So you will notice the incoming part of my trading list is growing quite large!!

It's the little things in life that make me happy!!!

So how are we liking the story thus far? I'm pleased to announce the next concubine is Joe Elliot!! Why? you may ask? Cos he was the concubine she was engaged too..and there is a reason for him being next...but you'll see soon enough

Laters....

ARGH

OK kidlets...since I've tried repeatedly to post my picture here..I'm going to give you the link to my profile...so you can see my picture with Elvis Costello

Just click here

Now you are witness to my joy! The only joy I've had in yonks mind you....Hope the picture of me doesn't scare you too much...

And Episode of Elvis...aka Mr. Costello and Me...

Ok..cos this is my blog..and my blog should be all about me....I'm devoting these few words well more than a few words..to My Episode of Elvis...Which also means I can die happy now...

Yes kidlets..when I say that..I mean..I, Andrea Guy..did in fact...meet...receive a hug and kiss by the one and only Elvis Costello..and got my picture taken with the man...I'm happy to report..both Mr. Costello and myself are still alive .....and not to detract from the evening...my internet friend...Brighid..who was also at the concert...also got a hug from him!! So needless to say..there was enough...joy being had in Pittsburgh last night

But enough of my gloating...cos yes that's what I'm doing...Gloating....as payback for everyone else...that has made my life miserable with their tales of how they met...Greg...Elvis..whoever...

Let me tell you about the concert...cos it was incredible...the man has more energy than anyone..He did 2 encores...and closed with an orgasmic version of I Want You...which had me squealing at the top of my lungs..

I can't remember the exact order of the tracks..but here's a play by play...of the songs you can expect to hear on this leg of the tour.

Deep Dark Truthful Mirror/You Really Got A Hold On Me
Tart
Soul for Hire
Spooky Girlfriend
15 Petals
I Can't Stand Up For Falling Down
Tonight the Bottle Let Me Down
Indoor Fireworks
Allison
No Action
Mystery Man
Pump it Up
I Want You
Party Girl
45
Girls Talk
Uncomplicated
The Judgement
Man Out of Time
I Don't Want to Go To Chelsea
Radio Radio
Tear off your Head (It's a Doll Revolution)

I know I'm missing a few..but that's the general gist of it...I have this to say to you...If you have the chance to see this man in concert..

GO!! Go as many times as you can...He's the most fantastic performer...He's also a very nice fellow..also buy a copy of the tour cd Cruel Smile..cos it's just great...full of Live versions etc...well worth the money...

I figure I'll be up all night..cos I can't believe I met him!! Cos shit like this doesn't happen to me...At least when it comes to meeting someone...I truely admire...and mr. costello is one of those people...

Spins about and dances happily....

Oh...let me tell you about what he had on..cos he looked so cute....

As always..he had on a hat...black..and can you believe it..a cute one..Black coat and shirt..with a black and white scarfy..and black jeans...Trademark stubble as well..and it tickles when he kisses you... (ooops still gloating...)

All in all ..it was truely one of the most fantastic nights of my life..It will take something of great magnatude to surpass this...I'm not sure if my Pookie Pie Proopsy could surpass this...but Geeze...I'm so goddamn happy right now...I can just well...

Burst into song..

More songs in the Key of Greg...

Man Out Of Time
So this is where he came to hide
When he ran from you
In a private detective's overcoat
And dirty dead man's shoes
The pretty things of Knightsbridge
Lying for a minister of state
Are a far cry from the nod and wink
Here at traitor's gate

'Cause the high heel he used to be has been ground down
And he listens for the footsteps that would follow him around

To murder my love is crime
But will you still love
A man out of time

There's a tuppeny hapenny millionaire
Looking for a fourpenny one
With a tight grip on the short hairs
Of the public imagination

But for his private wife and kids somehow
Real life becomes a rumour
Days of dutch courage
Just three French letters and a German sense of humour

He's got a mind like a sewer and a heart like a fridge
He stands to be insulted and he pays for the privilege

(chorus)

The biggest wheels of industry
Retire sharp and short
And the after dinner overtures
Are nothing but an after thought
Somebody's creeping in the kitchen
There's a reputation to be made
Whose nerves are always on a knife's edge
Who's up late polishing the blade

Love is always scarpering or cowering or fawning
You drink yourself insensitive and hate yourself in the morning

(chorus)


Will I still love a Man Out of Time? Yes it's quite possible.. Something about the Knightsbridge reference in the song..and...well it's the title of the Alex and Everett story..plus that where Greg stayed when last in England

Pick a concubine...any concubine
Afternoon readers...

Since I'm almost done with the Declan part of the story...I thought I'd put it to you..."the reader" to decide which concubine..get's to go next.. There are a few choices of concubines..

1. Jeff Davis
2. Joe Elliot of the band Def Leppard
3. Chris Barrie of Red Dwarf
4. Danny Elfman

Have I missed any concubines?

So here's your task...decide which concubine should have their story with Laina told next.

Oh...and today's rant...

RAIN!! when will it ever stop..it's been pissing down rain for nearly 3 days now...This is getting to be disgusting.

Stuff and Nonsense

Morning kidlets and kittens

I'm sitting here amid piles of cds and books. Todays goal, run the vacuum in the bedrooms...sort the cds and well write some more in the Innocent Man story... How are we liking it btw?

I found a caricature of my darling Greggie. Unfortunately the only way I can share it with you is to give you a linky... It's actually much better than the one that guy drew of him on the Memory Skills videos.. So here's the caricature.

I have to say that was a nice piccy...kudos to the artist on that one..

Just learned that Josie Lawrence was in Enchanted April. I swear I saw that movie yonks ago, but I never noticed her in it. But likely I wasn't looking for her.

I guess I better get about cleaning etc...plus if I don't blog story...bad things happen...

Rant...Rant...Rant

Hola kidlet's..

It's rant and quote time....

Today's rant...Monday night football...includes the Steelers..and the game is being played in Pittsburgh..So guess what I'm not going to be watching this week...Nope no Whose Line is It Anyway...for me..for the second week in a row!!! How freaking wrong is that?

I need as much laughter in my life as I can get!! Taking away Whose Line..is wrong..dammit..very wrong...

Oh and I was reading a lovely Terry Prachett novel today...(well I have been for a few days now) and I found an interesting quote..

"Hell is empty...All the Devils are here..."

That explains alot I think..

Lets move along to the ABCFam epi of Whose Line that Greggie was on...I loved the Imaginary Friend Boy Super heroes..Especially when Colin called Greg four-eyes....LOL...My pookie was truely beautiful....

Stuff and Whoselineness

Mood: How would you feel if you were carless?
Music: Elvis Costello Political Action bootleg...early version of Tramp the Dirt Down I believe

Hey Pookies..

Before you crucify me for not updating the fanfic...I have this to say...

I have new pics of Greg..and if you want to see them..all you kittens had better be nice to me..Why..cos I'm a cranky volatile kitten right now...My car is in the shop for the remainer of the week...courtesy of the Episode of Deer!

So let's see where to start in the madcap life that lead...

Oh yes...I just found out that Mr. Jeff Davis is only a year older than myself...and for some reason...I feel really stupid for not attempting to seduce him..whilst the boy was in my clutches...Why am I so stupid so often? Oh yeah..I was suffering from..I want to meet Greg syndrome...Let me tell you..it's a nasty disease to suffer from...It affects most of the central nervous system and causes the sufferer to shout in octaves that only Dogs..and Psychotic sisters can hear...."Pookie!"

Ah well such is my miserable life...One day..I will acheive the greatness that I aspire too...Whose Line Groupie!! Go ahead giggle...chuckle if you must...but it is my goal to the concubine of at least one of the cast...Greg preferrably..but I think the Jencat would have much to say about that..

so I'll take this one...

Jeff Davis is a pretty boy is he not? I have to say..If I could not have my Gregory, Jeff is certainly doable...and him...I met..and ignored..go figure...My heart belongs to Pookie...but I have to say...Jeffie can be a Pookie in Waiting!! Forgive me Jeff for not fawning as I ought to have..

Yes..Mr Jeff Davis..I need to be flogged...and you are just the man to do it...

Ah well I better get to working on that story..before the kittens flog me...

I'm Cranky

Mood: Well I was happy...
Music: Man Out of Time

Yes I'm a moody cranky cancer bitch...but frankly there are some things..that I just don't want to hear about...I don't want to hear about how anyone met Greg...No frankly I don't..Cos I'm jealous and irrational when it comes to him... For 2 years...this man ..that I don't even know...has had a small hold on my life...

I so want to go to NYC to see him at Caroline's..but I know that's too much to hope for....cos I have no job...no money....and at this point no hope...so I should just push the thought from my head...Funny...I was quite happy with my little Episode of Greg today....Now I have to say..I feel like shit....

I'm 28 years old..and I can barely think of a good thing that's happened to me..in all those years..and to be honest..I swear..every day it gets worse...All I have to amuse me...are a pile of cds...(ever growing) and my stories...Good that I have a good imagination...Cos if I didn't...I'd be screwed..

Morning Kidlets and Kittens...from the wide wonderful world of Proopsville...

Hmmm this sounds like a bad movie...But I got the sweetest note in the mail from Mr. Proops. I had sent a thank you note to his agent and to him for answering the questions at Ocelots about a week or so ago. So when I got the mail today I was really surprised to see a card with his handwriting on it.. Especially as he said he's wading through the fan mail at a slow pace...

He couldn't possibly have gotten to my B-day card...etc....

It was a very simple note it just read

Andrea

My pleasure,

Greg Proops

It is my firm belief that they made him..and broke the mold...which is why I'll remain single...Cos I want one just like him...since he's spoken for...

Tell me again why cloning is bad?



Greg is a sweet guy..

If I got an email from Greg..it would say what?

Ok...I was talking to Sam..and we had this lovely little discussion of how Greg likely has my email as well..Hmm what if he's been pondering sending me an email these past 3 weeks...?

Ok..so here's what the email would likely say....

Andrea,

Please don't stalk me! I've been to your egroup and I've seen your blog and I have to say. I wouldn't go near you with a ten foot poll. See girlie now you know why I left early that night!

Your writing is crap..and frankly it's frightening..You need to stop!

Greg

That would be my luck... I'm so depressed...and I'm listening to Erasure again...This time it's Love is the Rage

Annoyed and Frustrated

Ok I really should be working on my story..but see...People have been gloating about meeting Greg AGAIN! and frankly I'm disgusted and a little bit nauseous....

But really...It's back to the whole emailing Greg thing...I must be the most wussy female on the planet..I have the man's email address..and I haven't used it...It's the whole Devil and Angel on the shoulder thing...

1. He knows who I am...at least through the egroup...(how embarrassing)
2. God knows he might have read my posts here or at Ocelots (sweet mother of god!)
3. He could have read my stories..(god help me)

Ok...Now that I've made myself more nauseous I think I'll go write some more of the Alex and Everett story...
