Yea what is he really telling himself anyway?? Like all of a sudden I need a man to make me happy. I have friends dammit who needs a man!

I keep thinking about moving to England. Don't even ask me about the school thing cus unless some kind person drops a fat check in my lap with zero strings attached to it the school thing will have to wait. In the mean time I am bored and in need of a change. And quite frankly nothing is holding me here in Barbados. I just feel in love with London when I visited there....I'd give just about anything to be there now.


Fast forward to what I would like my life to be in 10 years.

So today we finished the majority of editing to the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. I keep thinking to myself that surely Depp is too old for this role of the swarmy Capt Jack Sparrow and Orlando is looking a tad bit too happy these days if you get my meaning but Mr Bruckheimer seems to be convinced they can still do the job. And well...he hasn't been wrong thus far. Plus if the audience's response to select previews is anything to go by it seems that we are all on the right track. I came on as Asst Producer I admit with doubts but I really couldn't pass up the opportunity with such a successful producer now could I?? Especially after he asked me personally to be his right hand ....er..woman where this project is concerned. Honestly tho I find myself having to run interference on behalf of the entire staff sometimes....nearly had a major catastrophe with some costumes today when some interns decided to play football inside one of the wardrobe trailers all thru the racks and closets...can you imagine the damage they might have done had they bumped into those delicate pieces of artwork??...they're lucky I'm the one that caught them and not the boss himself otherwise I know it would have ended differently.

Soon time to head home to Mr Thorpe and my adorable twin girls Emily Renee and Jade Alexandra. They're both getting so big and driving their father absolutely mad when I am not around. Well another two months on this project and then we can all take a vacation to Spain. Just sent Mum her ticket and I know she is excited about seeing her "little women" again. She and Ian get along so well...you'd think he was her child and not me. Ian will go mad on this trip with the girls tho...he's still convinced that they have yet to show they are water babies since in his mind they should have at least one trait similiar to that of their father...swimming. *eyeroll* He is an asst coach with the Australian swim team now and it seems preparations are going well for the upcoming Olympics. I know they'll do great. :)

Ah....just got a call...the interns are playingin the trailer again....this time it's paintball. *sigh* Kids today. They just don't learn.

Yeah skin wunna mouths at it but it made me smile. :P There is nothing wrong with indulging in a fantasy. Keeps one's imagination healthy and active. And I don't mean that in the way some ppl will take it....

Bedtime tho.

Ciao!

This blog will probably cause some ppl to laugh considering what I am about to talk about. But it's ok cus I ain really care.

I am afraid of nuts. Now see normally I love nuts of all varieties. Cashew, macadamia, brazil even the everpopular peanut. One night a few weeks back I ate a nut..nto sure what kinda cus it was a mixed handful that a friend gave me...and immediately after eating it I felt very sick. Went home and threw up. I figured hey it musta been a bad nut. Well now about two weeks later to that I ate another handful of nuts this time from at home and I ate another nut similiar to the one I had that night...shortly after consuming it I took a ride on the porcelain express. I still cannot determine what sort of nut it is I ate. All I know is I am afraid to eat any nut that isn't a cashew or a regular old peanut. It's horrible!! But I just don't want to take the risk of throwing up all over the place cus of one single nut.


Neway. I hate it when the weekend disappears. It's honestly a horrible thing. The week is so busy you don't have time for yourself. So the weekend is filled with things you would have liked to have done during the week but had no time so now you're doing it and by the time you're done the weekend is gone and you barely spent any time on yourself!!!

I have decided that yes I am going to get a massage. The more I think about it the more I look forward to it. I'll make a call this week and set it up. I cud use the pampering!! And shoot if I don't go it it'll never get done.

You know when you're so tired you just look forward to what you know will be a wonderful sleep cus of that fact that you are that tired? That's how I feel right now. :)

If there is one thing I hate...ppl who see I am having a rough day...I mean you can see it all in my face you know but I still trying to look all perky and happy to be of service cus that is what ppl count on....yet random persons still get in my face reprimanding me like I am about 6 and they're my parent. And the funny thing is they weren't even my boss. lol they ain't even a friend. You learn more with every passing day.

Bedtime.

What on earth is there to blog about...oh yes there is a new strain of HIV/AIDS that apparently speeds up the dying process so basically the infected person only lives for about 6 months. What the hell. If this doesn't get ppl to keep their clothes on then I don't know what will. Then again why fool myself. Sexual promiscuity is all the rage these days. I am all for abstinence but I am not totally naive cus I realise that yes there are some ppl out there who too love a piece and just can't seem to do without it. So to these sex obsessed individuals I would urge them to use a condom. It makes me mad you know. That so many lives are being lost cus ppl either can't control themselves or just stupidly believe that they aren't at risk!!
God I can only pray they get the msg now.


In lesser conflicting news but STILL very important to me...Naruto...*I takes a deep shuddering breath* ...has been licensed. Two fella ticks just msged me with the news. These goons are going to mess up this show as I know it. Ick it's going to be in total English now. Don't ask me why I prefer Japanese with English subtitles. I just DO. Well apparently Anbu and some underground groups have vowed to continue with their versions of Naruto...these losers that got it licensed are gonna turn this into another travesty like Sailor Moon or something.Like Ian was saying the only way this cud work now is if they had to change the name when the time skip occurs THEN it would be legal to sub it again. But wuh dem gin change de name to eh?
Alotta damn foolishness. STUUUUUUUUUPSE!

Today was Boo's birthday and I got him this CD he's been wanting forever. However instead of staying at home like a good best friend would he decide to go classes. The nerve of that boy!! Messing with my flow man!!

This protest thing at UWI is something else tho...I am here hearing about how ppl went around stopping classes and banging on Mr Beckles' door. Peppah.

Honestly tho...they could really tell the students what they're going to do with the money to put their minds to rest. Still tho 700 dollars is chicken feed compared to what you pay for Uni's outside of Bim. If they're asking students to pay that money in installments then I honestly don't know what the big deal is. If they're asking em to pay it one time....well.... Granted I don't go to UWI so I may not know the full story so maybe someone can enlighten me.

I sleepy as france. Bedtime!!

I suffered the worst form of abuse at the hands of my own mother. In recent weeks the stress of my job has caused my back to once again flare up. But wunnah should know this anyway cus I complain about that already…anyway….today I wake up from a nap with my neck just as sore. So I implored her to give me a massage. Now I know that massages aren’t as easy and breezy as they seem on the tele. If you’re doing it to get rid of pain like in my case it’s actually a lil rough but I always feel times better afterwards….

However I think Mum enjoyed this particular massage a bit too much…add in the fact that she said “dog bite yuh” as she applied unusual amounts of pressure and I think we can safely say that she brutalized me in purpose! LOL at least my back isn’t hurting anymore so let’s hope that lasts for a bit more. (she had me cracking up with her antics tho) One thing for sure tho. I am going for a professional massage in the next couple of weeks. I need it.

This weekend was soooo boring. Highlights were the fact that the Mummy Returns showed on CBC on Friday night and well tonight is the Apprentice which I missed last week cus I was at the conference for abstinence at the Gym. Have to press my clothes for work at some point. It saves a good 10 minutes on the morning with me not having to run around like a headless chicken wondering what on earth I am going to wear.

I find myself questioning my taste in music constantly. Two new favourites this week. Keane – We Might as Well be Strangers and….and….*sigh* Hilary Duff – Fly. ** I ducks the flying bottles**

Ah yes another week of work. Got something to look forward to in the next couple of weeks tho :) Uh can’t wait!

Vacation is in the next four months. Think I can make it? I ain got a choice!!

Have a great week pplz!

Ok..so I am actually enjoying Carnival music this year..which is odd cus I have never paid it any sorta mind before. Maybe it's the Trini in me coming out. :S I mentioned this startling fact to Marcus awhile back and he gave me the thumbsdown. So clearly IHO Carnival music sucks. But I like it!!! I can't lie and say I don't!! Mummy insists that if I still lived in TnT I would be playing Mass like the "rest of the heathens." She loves to speculate at how different I would be had I not come to live in Barbados. Oh what does she know anyway. But when I think about it tho I seem to have seriously disowned there tho cus I hsven't been there in ages. And every year ppl head down there for Carnival. Clearly a trip back "home" is in order.

Not this year tho. This year is London with my nieces to see the rest of the family.
^___^

I dunno boh these days my back been doing a number on me. I know it's stress tho cus when I get unusually stressed out it flares up. And these next few months are not going to be easy cus our biggest client is just making our lives hell. I cried last night I was so tired and out of it. But I was back in here today ready to take that bull by the horns...but it ran me through again. Tomorrow like it gin be the same again dread.

I am here looking at these comps....they really need two of these here tho? No one uses em....and I want a comp dammit. Like that'll ever happen. *eyeroll*

Oh on a funnier note I was "priviledged" to see a male version of Rhonda's snowball lady. I found it hilarious and didn't feel threatened in the least since his shirt had a fair amount of sleeve on it :D It was creepy still tho...

I am craving pasta from Bistro Monet...Ms Pitt is to blame for this :@
