New book coming out by Stephen King..

Stephen King is releasing a new book and it's a really, really, really, really, really long one and I can't wait. I saw it on my Doubleday book club site which won't let me use the bill me feature any more even though I paid all my bills and this is one really long run on sentence but I'm excited. And breathe. Okay so I was reading my email, something I do once a week lately it seems. Internet, other than FaceBook hasn't been calling me much. I went two days without even signing on not all that long ago. It just doesn't hold the fascination it once did. Oh Internet, what happened to our love?

But back to Stephen King, he wrote a new book and it's long like The Stand or It. I can not wait, I think I may have mentioned that once or twice. It's called Under the Dome and the cover is yet to be revealed. So I yell to Rob, Stephen King as a new book coming out in November. He replies cool, just in time for Christmas. I yell, as if I can wait that long and seriously! He chuckled at me. Does he not value his life? Stephen King is no joking matter. My love affair with Stephen King novels goes back a long way. Before I even heard of a man named Rob that I would some day love. I heard about Carrie when my sister went and saw the movie. Scared the crap out of her. Then there was the movie Salem's Lot which I loved. Then I found out they were by an author that I could read. My mother got me an adult library card when I was a kid which was great. Sometimes she had flashes of brilliance while raising us kids. Reading has always been an escape for me. Stephen King opened a whole new world for me. Cujo was amazing. I really loved Eyes of the Dragon. Not his usual tale by any means, but great. I don't think there is a single Stephen King novel I didn't enjoy for one reason or another. I especially enjoyed his last one Duma Key. As you can tell, I'm a bit of a fan.

So in November, I will be waiting outside of whatever store is the first to have his book ready to go and I will buy it. I will not wait for Doubleday to have it sent to me, I can't waste that kind of reading time. As for my husband, well, he will pay for his chuckle. Oh he will!

Thats awesome, I have just one book of his, Dream Catcher. Saw the movie and didnt know at first it was a book. Come to find out my sis has the book and i started reading it but slowly stopped. I need to pick it up again, just to read in general but when reading that book it was a real good read. Damn i think i might pick it up again. Its sitting on my makeshift book shelf over my bed. I am going to read it.

Get out of your own head.....

I had all kinds of thoughts and plans for my future. Dreams of the life I'd lead and the places I'd travel. But dreams are simply mist, blown away by the winds of reality, and as a well-known movie of our  younger years taught us, 'Reality Bites'. Reality is a bitter bitch.

Monster Juice Spray pussifying our children?

Today someone posted a cute little story about a pharmacy that prescribes a Monster Spray to children that have monsters under their bed. They spray the spray before bedtime, under their bed and it makes all the monsters go away. A little six year old girl used it three times before she was sure all the monsters were gone. I find this story absolutely adorable. I think it's wonderful that this pharmacists does something so kind for small children with big imaginations. I think a little magic in this world is just what a lot of child need. The response from one woman totally had me stunned. She said it's crap like this that is pussifying our children. Really? Then she went on in another reply when asked what one has to do with the other to say her daughter was bullied and what are they going to make next, bully spray? (They do make a bully spray, it's called mace!)  Her daughter had to graduate early because of bullies. Okay, what does her daughter being bullied have to do...

Sometimes..

Sometimes the emotional pain becomes too much to bear. Sometimes the emotional pain feels like it's going to consume us. Sometimes the emotional pain is so overwhelming that we need a physical pain to release it before we lose ourselves and who we are in it. Not everyone can understand this, I get that. Not everyone can look at someone with scars that were self inflicted and say, I see your pain. Sometimes, we hide those scars under our jeans so no one will notice. It's not for attention, it's for release. Sometimes we dull the pain with alcohol, sometimes we dull the pain with drugs either prescription or illegal. Sometimes we smoke too much and talk to loud. But we find our release to keep us alive. We are survivors with our scars to prove it.
