Right now I wouldn't be able to write a decent entry if my life depended on it. Everything is mixed up in my brain and refuses to come out. The bankrupcy issue is still very much alive and is looking bleaker by the moment. My birthday is tomorrow and in the spirit of Doom (still referring to the bankrupcy) I've decided to go all out and have one big party instead of the usual 5 or 6 smaller ones and I have that to organize. Not that I've done much organizing, mostly my plans revolve around the vague notion of 'Buy alcohol!' and I don't think I'm going to do much more than that. After all, what else do you need?

What I actually wanted to post were the results of this test:

As it says on the front page: the test results shouldn't be taken seriously and I don't think I am godfather-like 355 days out of a year. But apparently I am today and I just wanted to remember that. And, unlike most emotional fluctuations I have, I actually know where this desire for power is coming from. Today is the day the bankrupcy lawyers are supposed to show up.

Normally it wouldn't be a reason for bloodthirst but unfortunately I've already met them and they're definitely not a pleasant bunch of people to spend time with. I can't get into details, naturally, but I can say that I don't like pushy people. When they get pushy I feel the need to push back, harder if possible. So I'm really dreading the situation, not because of the bankrupcy but because I have some interest invested in it and it's probably better protected if I don't get angry. Which is hard to do around pushy people.

That brings me to a question: are all lawyers pushy and unpleasant during their working hours? Can they be pleasant when they're off-duty? Right now I find that hard to believe.

Sorry about the (possibly) incoherrent rant. There's no structure, no distinguishable point and, most importantly, no spell-check! It is not an important entry on a larger scale and written only so it was possible to see where I stood on the brink of my 24th birthday.

What I want:

movie mood:
nothing - unless you can suggest something where a pushy lawyer gets what's coming to him
Update: Ellie suggested Intolerable Cruelty and I think that would work!

music mood:
bossanova - something soothing to remind me of better days.
reading plans:
T. Pratchett "Carpe Jugulum" - Because it has sexy vampires and a schizophrenic witch. I finished all the J. Austen books and intend to write something about them as soon as I feel even a little bit literary and not seething with anger.
food cravings:
nothing - although I brought a cake to work for my birthday and it's delicious. But I'm full.
I wish that:
I wasn't feeling so tired and ineffectual all the time.
Anything:
Have you been to Orkut yet? It's surprisingly fun and offers great stalking opportunities. Let me know if you want to add me to your friends!
