Okay, that wasn't how I wanted to start this, but alas. I know I don't post on here so often anymore, and it's kind of sad. I may make more of an effort to be around on here, even if lj is largely pretty dead, at least around these parts. I think the only people who I still talk to on here who read and reply to my posts are Therese, Ashley, and now Meg. You girls all rock, but you knew that.?
Friday marked three months of really working on my depression, and I'm really coming a long way. Well, not on Friday itself, that was fraught with emotion later on due mostly to PMS and me being a doofus, but in the past three months, I've really done a hell of a lot of work on myself, and I would think it shows. I'm happy, I'm confident, I'm content, I'm excitable, I'm sexy as all hell, I'm funny, I'm bouncy, I'm fun, I'm just awesome these days. I'm very proud of myself, and I celebrated with some sushi with my brother (well, incidentally, sushi day fell on the same day as Friday, but shhh).?
What else, what else. Work has been a bit annoying, to be honest, because I'm having a hard time tracking down anyone to talk to with the other paper regarding other stories and even when my most recent story will be run. It's a little frustrating, but I'm keeping busy regardless and always looking for new opportunities. Today I found this autism site that is looking for writers, and I thought that would be kinda cool even if I don't know anything about autism. But I liked the voice and tone of the site, and I love writing and am still looking for any paid opportunities out there. Next year is for focusing on landing a magazine or newspaper slot, permanently.
In terms of other writing, the grunge site is going really well. I have began writing more because I put some invisible, nonexistent pressure on myself to write on there daily, sometimes even a few times a day. Most of the time I average two posts a day, and the url never changed, so if you're friends with me on twitter, you get linked to all of my posts, since I retweet them all. Rockcandy is going pretty well; I seem to always get attention on the pieces I write, so that's fun at least. In terms of my personal writing, I am getting back into that too. It's still slow going, which is frustrating sometimes. I have bursts where I just sit there and write, and it feels really awesome, but they're few and far between. However, I'm writing regularly, almost daily, so that's good. Everything is a little slower than usual, but I'm writing, and that's the best part. I mean, ever since I was laid off my writing schedule got fucked up, and sometimes I forget to write at all.
Lately I've been reading a lot of scary stories and relationship advice sites and this site called Cracked because I'm like addicted to articles/YouTube channels about video games that are informative and stuff. I don't know why, but that's the stuff I'm into lately. Ever since the whole Slender Man thing, I'm not really scared of stuff that used to really, really freak me out, like creepypastas. In fact, Meg hooked me up on this scary story reddit (I dunno what reddit really is lol), and I keep going back to it. I'm addicted. I don't read it too close to bedtime, but I love it. It's weird. I also watched this Cattle Decapitation music video that is so gory and disturbingly gross that it's not even on YouTube. I linked to it on Rockcandy. I dunno, it wasn't?that?bad. Ha ha. I don't know what's up with me lately, but I'm not scared of shit. Still not touching horror movies though.
I've always been watching a lot of Attitude Era wrestling with my brother, Pay-Per-Views and old Raws and Heats and stuff. Although I love the current roster and all, I still think that Attitude Era wrestling was head and shoulders above what current wrestling is. The storylines were edgy and pushed the envelope of what they could get away with. It was raunchy, sexy, scary, crazy, and yes, sometimes silly, but it was amazing. It wasn't without its flaws. I mean, sometimes you watch stuff from when you were a kid and you realize how shitty it was. Not so with this. It wasn't perfect, but man, the fans cared?so much, and WWE was forced to be better because they had competition. Sometimes I wish TNA was a viable entity and not just where washed up old wrestlers go to die, because WWE needs a swift kick in the ass in the form of competition.
Sorry, I have some wrestling people on here now, so I may ramble about it from time to time with specificity. Ignore if you choose.
I suppose I should mention this, since one of you (Therese) already knows, and I'm a sucky liar, and everyone else knows already anyway. Eddie and I are kinda...well, I don't know what we are. I suppose the term is dating again, although we only went out once, and it was two weekends ago. That was what the super vague yet satisfied post was about. I could write a whole fucking novel about the events that have transpired since I last mentioned him in July, and if you really want to hear about it, I could post the full story. I don't know entirely what's going to happen, but I have learned that wavering and keeping a dating profile open on the side is not really fair to any attempts at togetherness. I mean, I have never been in this situation before. That's why I read so much. I've become a relationship advice sponge, but I am far from perfect. I can, however, advise you on all of your relationship problems probably. I'm just still trying to figure mine out.?
Lastly, and on a fantastic final note to end this very informative post on, tomorrow Ashley and I are seeing Fiona Apple in New York City. I'm very excited, and a little nervous too, since Ashley and I have never met in person. This is the very best time ever for anyone to meet me, so I'm sure things will be fine. It's going to be a long and absolutely stellar day. I can't wait!?
This has been your Nicole life update.?
