Life with Wednesday Addams:

   It's been hard enough, in our depressed economy to find myself a career.  I've started working on a novel. And have decided I want to learn how to make Origami paper cranes.
....So much for career searching.....
   It's just that hearing "no" after "no" really makes my already low self esteem even lower.

   So I spend my days reclusively and vicariously living through cartoons and blog feeds. Occasionally, when I do venture out, it is for coffee, or nannying...
   Recently, it's been feeling like I live with the Addams Family.
(That's me, in the little brown dress; Wednesday Adams.)



   Like my dad, Gomez, says, "You went from years of going 90 miles and hour, to Park...Things are going to seem completely strange. The key is not to let Park become your routine."

So now I have to find something to do with my time, when job hunting is not enough.  Something for me. That's why I started MIMZEE (which is actually just mimzee but the font on this thing enjoys capitalizing things....)

   Last night I watched Coraline, for the 42nd gadillionth time, but I love it.  At least I don't have a creepy cockroach mother waiting to sew buttons onto my face in some creepy little door. No, my Morticia works her butt off at work and loves me even if I am quiet and she worries. 



   For all purposes of today's post, Puglsey is a girl.  My little sister. She's got a voracious appetite for learning and swimming and she is an inventive and diabolical genius. Sometimes, I wish I was a driven as Pugsley. 
   But for now, life is just a punchline. I live in a twisty house, with a dumb dog. And parents that love me. And my scheming sister lives up in Golden and I miss her always.

    ...............At least I've got my cartoons and imagination, right?

Thanks for joining me on my journey
