Aw, thanks friends! I've been sad lately, kind of lonely. So I thought I'd ask. :)

I had a dream that I was married to Jay Baruchel.
The dream started with us leaving our own reception, already out of our wedding attire. We got into a limo, a big one, high ceilings and lots of room. My maid of honor (who I didn’t recognize, although she reminded me of Daisy from Bones, who bothers me) and his best man (who I wish I didn’t recognize.) The four of us traveled in this limo for a good while, with Leann, Gahren and Chelsea following in a car behind us. Funny thing, I kind of looked like Zooey Deschanel, my bangs were back and I was kind of dressed like the indie cooner Jay helped me take off my boots, which were lace up, without the secret zipper in the back. We were so in love it was almost heartbreaking, well actually it make me happy. We got to our new house, a charming little thing that I had never seen before, brown and trimmed with blue. I told him I loved the blue, and we can fix the brown. He laughed and kissed me, he finds me charming. When we got out of the car Leann was already out, with Gahren leaning against the car and Chelsea still inside. I walked up to Leann and she hugged me. She looked back over my shoulder and commented on Jay’s choice of best man. “What? Jay and Matt are brothers.” Jay looked at me and then back at Mat, who was looking at me along with everyone else.
“Um, Shelby, I don’t think Matt is related to Jay Bar-” she mumbled off at the end, she’s always had trouble with his name.
“What was that?”
“Hm? What? I was just saying, I think we would have known if Matt were related to a famous actor.”
Matt snickered at that, “famous?” Jay smacked the back of his head.
I looked at Leann, who was hoping I’d let this slide, “you really need to work on say my husbands name. It is my name too, after all.”
“Wow, that is true, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, it kind of makes me wow, too”
I hugged Leann, it was an amazing hug, she is an amazing hugger. She told me to take lots of pictures. Jay and I walked back to our home, my friends watched as he made me laugh and picked me up, carrying me over the threshold.
The next thing I remember is us laying in bed, it being very late. I made him promise not to leave when he got up. I wanted him there when I woke up. I woke up to him looking back at me with the same look I was giving him. I smiled, and we just laid there for a moment, before I said, “We’re married.”
“I know right?”
“I can’t believe we actually did this!” I rolled over and ran my fingers threw my hair, I took a deep breath and looked back at him. I jumped up and started jumping on the bed. “We’re married!” Jay grabbed my legs and tickled the back of my knee, I let myself fall, he grabbed me and kissed me, then told me he loved me. I brushed his hair back, “god, this is the moment of my life. I am so happy I could just burst. Just burst into a million pieces. What would you do if I burst?”
“Make you into little stars,” we were realistically in love, it was wonderful. I smiled and kissed him, and then when I looked at him, he seemed sad.
“Hey sad boy, what’s wrong?”
“I just wish he were there”
This seemed to upset me, though I don’t let it show, “we talked about this. It was just too awkward, besides, he hasn’t talked to either one of us since he left.”
“It just felt weird, not having him there”
“I know”
“He’s just always been there”
“I know, but maybe it’s time to start a new life. It’s a new day, a new chapter. Maybe it’s time to let all that go, I have.”
“Have you?”
“Of course I have.” He looks away from me, insecure, “Hey, trust me I have.”
Silence for a moment before he looks back at me, “do you remember the first time we met?”
“How could I forget?”
“That was the day we all met.”
“You know, I’d seen you earlier, when you first walked in, you were shaking your hair from the rain.”
“Wait, I thought, I thought Kevin. . .”
“No, it was me, I saw you first.”
“That means Kevin. . .”
“Stole you away from me.”
“Wow, can you just imagine how different things would have been?”
“I always kicked myself for not walking up to you when I had the chance.”
“Doesn’t really matter now does it?”
“No, it really doesn’t.”
And then I woke up.
I think it’s interesting that my Jay Baruchel dream somehow molded with the story I am writing.

Am I the only one. . .
Who thinks that Amy Adams will do an amazing job? A fiery red head, who just so happens to be an amazing singer. I think kind of looks like her, and she is a fantastic actress. I know she is famous for playing the sweet innocent characters, but she has played other characters. As far as her voice goes, there is such thing as a voice coach. Joaquin Phoenix couldn't even sing the right key while filming Walk the Line, but got it right just before production started. Actors can mold and change themselves, that's why they're actors. It'll be great you'll see.

Drunk on Sadness
WHERE ARE YOU NOW?
To my favorite teacher
told me never give up
To my fifth grade crush
Who I thought I really loved
To the guys I've missed and the girls we've kissed
Where are you now
To my ex-best friends
Don't know how we grew apart
To my favorite band
Sing along in my car
To the face I see in my memory
Where are you now
Where are you now?
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
To my first girlfriend
I thought for sure was the one
To my last girlfriend
Sorry that I screwed it up
To the ones I loved
Didn't show it enough
Where are you now
Where are you now
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
I know we'll never see those days again
And things will never be that way again
But that's just how it goes
People change but I know
I won't forget you
To the ones who came
Who we're there from the start
To the love that left
And took a piece of my heart
To the few who'd swear
They'd never go anywhere
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be how I am
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
If it wasn't for you
I'd be nothing

Endless Cycle Of Blah
I have no ideas – I feel like this con-artist story is lackadaisical. Something I thought about in a dream that can really only work once. I’d love to just turn it into a story about me writing a story, but genius like Adaptation can really only happen once. (Damn you Charlie) so instead I sit here, typing out my thoughts, looking over my shoulder, hoping my boss doesn’t decide that today is the day to finally let me go. This is the only time in my life I have ever (and will ever) wish that I had a cubical. Something about be stranded by short fake walls seems comforting right now. It’s not that anyone can really sneak up on me. The building is pretty old and the floors creak and echo whenever someone walks down the hall. In fact I’ve gotten into the habit of memorizing peoples footsteps. I can almost tell, whoever it is, and sometimes even what they want by the sounds of steps. The thing is I don’t always stop what I am doing when I hear someone coming, because, well, they usually just walk on by. She has a habit of walking up and stopping to ask me something without actually saying my name. She just stands there and expects me to answer her. Which I guess is reasonable, considering we all know I heard her walk up. I guess what I really wish, is that we didn’t have a turn the other cheek policy. I feel like I’m a kid again, and I still don’t have any rules. It’s not a big deal considering that I am a good, well-mannered person who is more trouble to herself then she would ever be to anyone else, but like everyone, I need rules. No matter what anyone says they need and want rules, even if it’s just something to rebel against. The point is, like a child, I want to be told no. I want someone to yell at me and take away my toys. I want them to cut off internet from my computer, I want them to tell me not to just sit here and wait for the phone to ring. I want the same things I wanted when I was twelve. I want to matter. I want to feel important. I want people to care that I come in late, I want people to care that I take ten-minute bathroom breaks. I want people to care that I don’t do my job. No one cares, because I don’t care, I don’t care because no one else does. My life is an endless cycle of BLAH!
Unemployed
I cannot believe this – I am going to lose my job. It’s interesting that just a few weeks ago, just a few days ago, hell last night, I was telling everyone how much I hate my job. Well don’t worry folks, I haven’t changed my mind, but now that I am about to be jobless I have realized. . . .I WILL BE JOBLESS! First of all, I am a human being and I can’t afford not to have a job. I need to work, because I’ve got bills to pay. I can’t lose my job, at least right now! Hell it’s October! Soon it’ll be Thanksgiving, then Christmas! And that’s just a hop-skip and a jump away from spring semester and once school starts I won’t even have time to have a job! Oh shit I am buggin.
Anyone know someone who’s hiring?

I Wanna Be A Rock Star
I would give anything to sing like Hayley Williams, but I'd settle for Rosario Dawson :)
It is not fair that I can't sing, I'd be an amazing rocker chick! I'd be a fantastic front woman! I think Hayley Williams is a beast! (in a good way) I would give just about anything to sing like her. I also think Rosario Dawson was amazing in Rent. I want to be a rock star, but I want range! I want to be able to moonlight as a Broadway star! HA, as if *rolls eyes*
I think I'm a little bit of both - Although the glam rock jumped right out at me, I'd probably more likely be seen in the garage rock.
