Sorry to hear Dr Doolittle was assaulted outside your window, benway.

She is a pornographer, rather than a porn star, or supporting actress etc.
Here she is meeting Belladonna at the recent Porn Awards in LA!

You seem to live a weird double life. One minute cute and lovable family guy, next porn lover with an intimate knowledge of the ins and outs of sexual paraphernalia.
It's very confusing. Are you really just the one guy?

Oops. Missed your post. Had already left for the delights of Cowell and company.
Yes, it was weird. Simon Cowell is British though and of course, that man knows how to milk the fatted cow.
I missed San Diego. Last night was Charleston, which appears to have many deluded people who cannot believe they cant sing and so sulk, noisily, afterwards. I imagine a playgroup would be more mature. Of course, I know it is all in the editing, but even so, there was a whole stadium of people for two days running yet only 15 made it through. I think.
Not too many freaky people, though there is hope. Next week, Omaha. That sounds a bit more promising.
I can't wait.

I think they aim for about 15-20 each time. I know there are plenty of good singers (or even excellent singers) that don't make it to the judges - they only let through those that are either exceptional, or have some hook.
Omaha is about as mundane a place as I can think of, so I doubt it will hold more promise.

I wondered about that. They let go voices that seem good enough to me. Simon says stuff like 'pop quality'. I can't stand that sort of 'pop'. I stop watching once all the goofy people have gone.
*meandering off* I have really gone off reality shows this year. That's the only one I'm watching. I guess even air-heads like me can have too much brain-mash. I've also stopped watching all the CSI and crimes series I used to like.
In fact, Mr sam and I had a good talk today about how directionless our life is at the moment; sitting in front of the TV night after night like we haven't got a life and whilst we do that, our friends are moving on without us. I ask you, what is that about? Sometimes I think that living together is not so good; you get into a rut and stop making the effort.

an alright week so far. Been trying to eat heathily, done a lot of cooking. Have been down the gym. Work has been quite leisurely. Watched a few hours of The Wire in the evenings. Going for a drink tonight. Working from home for the rest of the week.
And now the sun is shining!
I'd give it a 7/10. The missing 3 is that there's always this voice saying "is this really what you want to do with your life? Are you able to accept this is your lot?". It's been a bit loud recently, but probably because I've cut back on the booze.

yeah, nothing like the booze to drown out that annoying inner voice. I haven't been able to shut mine the hell up for nearly nine years.

I always find myself thinking 'if only I hadn't spent all that time drunk/ hungover, I would have been able to achieve so much more'. How must it feel to give up drinking and then discover that the reason you were failing to be a success in life isn't because you were pinned down by a merciless addiction, but rather just because you lacked the necessary ability and drive.

lol. I've hardly failed at life. But unlike Benway's inner voice, which is probably telling him to try harder and make something out of his life, mine is constantly reminding me of how much happier I could be if only I pursued a life of being a hobo.

Yes, I've always found Benway's talk of having jettisoned his aspirations and his attitude of 'life's just about making thinigs as painless as possible while you wait to die' to be unconvincing. I think it's obvious there's a lot he wants to achieve, even if he pretends otherwise, and he probably has the ability to do so if he hadn't talked himself into this corner where he thinks he believes that trying to do stuff is some kind of defeated acquiesence to a fuckwit's lifestyle.

I have not heard back from a job I applied for, which is a bummer. Also, the lack of Victoria line put me within seconds of a burst bladder yesterday and meant I didn't get home until after midnight.
On the other hand I had a colossal pancake and a lot of wine, and somehow skipped a hangover. The sun is out, I have a saltbeef bagel in my drawer and last night's Shameless to watch when I get home.

sorry to hear that abby. At least it's sunny though, eh?
Also, Pepper, you should try bombarding your potential employer with emails and phone calls. This will show your get-up-and-go attitude, your willingness to take initiative, and will demonstrate that thing you said to them about how you like to see tasks through to the end.

I applied for a job at John Lewis, and they haven't even graced me with a 'no thanks'. They can stuff their partnership up their jonelle.
