Happy Ending

Ever think to yourself, "I watch too much tv"? 

Me too! 

However, the thing that sets me apart from you is that I'm always thinking to myself "I read to much" (which we all know is crazy talk! that can never be done!)  

Every time I get around somebody that I "like", my inner 8th graders takes over and I turn into this daydreaming dope. I start playing silly love songs and pretending my life is going to "take off."

FYI- the "taking off" part has yet to happen. 

Along with the silly songs, I also have this thing where I wish on every star that my life will turn out like a Sara Dessen book. ( great YA books!) 

There is always a girl (me) with some sort of issue (also me) and a boy (not to be named). They bond and form this awesome relationship ( yay for friendship!) and you start to think towards the middle of the book, finally they are going to be together. But no! There is always some falling out (with me that is bound to happen), however the book gods shine on them and they end up happily ever after ( at least that's what you are left with. you never really know because she hardly ever writes sequels.) 

I'm at the stage of the bonding and forming of said relationship. And unlike the lucky ladies in the books, I know early on that I like the said unnamed boy. I know it, and I think about it waaayyy too much. 

I've gone through this process countless times and have yet to have a happy ending. (Of course with the divorce rate skyrocketing, not a lot of people are experiencing that lately. which is kinda irrelevant right now..) 

I'm waiting, and getting impatient, for my happy ending! I want a truly novel romance. And not some hot and heavy sex story. I want depth, connection. A traveler, (a tall traveler!) with mysterious eyes. 

The song "All I Ask of You" from The Phantom of the Opera pretty much sums it up.

Well hello to all you imaginary readers!
Long time, no complaining. Which is crazy, because at this point in my life I have so much to complain about.. and now that I'm here I have not the energy to rant. Shame, I know. I realize you were counting on it. Sorry I failed to deliver.

So are you wondering why I am here after being away for so long? Well either way I shall tell you. I just got done reading this super great book (The cubical next door) which centered around a blog. BTW: the book is really good. Go read it. NOW! OK not now.. finish reading this first then go! Obviously since the book centered around a blog I thought of mine and how it has been neglected these frigid months. And BAM! Here I is.
Now on to something a little more important. Since I often have a conversation with myself and in thoughs conversations frequently ask myself questions, I have a question for you. Why is it that in a really good book there is always a girl and a boy. They meet there is mutual interest, but one of the persons is difficult and refuses the relationship. And alas, right after a nail biting paragraph they realize they were wrong. Then the author finally gives in and they are together, turn the page and the freaking book is over with no sign of a sequel. WTF? right? They build you up, you fall in love with the characters and when the characters get to revel in their happiness you are left at a cliffhanger. Well maybe not a cliffhanger per say, but you don't get to see and of the happiness. I for one think its just plain horrid! Sometimes it takes away all the joys of reading. OK not all the joys, but a lot of them. I vow right here, on the Internet in front of God and ... well any poor sap who reads this, that I will show my readers the happiness of characters I choose to make fall in love!

You have my word. Good day poor saps :)
