The Veronicas... Amy Winehouse sisters?

Is it me or does the dark haired one look the way Amy Winehouse is supposed to?

Here is the video... (in the pic she is on the left)

The Veronicas - Take Me On The Floor

bummer

Staind Tickets went on sale an hour ago, and somebody (me) max'd her CC and can't use paypal to buy them.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

OK so maybe I have seen them once or thrice, but I LOOOVE them.  Poetry meets music, with humor and hotness all wrapped up.  

I am good. No really, I am.

I did my college degree the way I do everything else.  Bass Ackwards.

8 years and 1 baby later, I had a PR and Communications degree with enough credits in other departments to keep up at cocktail parties and probably diagnose your dog's cancer.

Then I sold out.  Instead of pursuing my passion for PR and media  I went for the cash.  I became one of the tops Yellow Page Ad saleswomen in the country for GTE (now Verizon).  6 figures was hard to turn down when I had an additional mouth to feed and no help from his, well, donor.  

Long story longer, I left the panty hose brigade to work in sweats and sneakers all day owning a start a dog-walking/pet-sitting  job .  Did my own PR and had the top game in town.  

I wasn't satisfied... but I loved it. So when the rest of the universe decided to become dog-walkers too, I quit while being ahead.

My next job was menial, answering emails, using my knowledge of Veterinary Medicine (thats a whole other blog) but I enjoyed it.  They needed a twitter account.  So I set it up, started a blog for them and Voila, my PR career was reborn.

Its fun to do daily.  Its like a challenge, how much can I do for this person?  How can I make them feel like they didn't pay me enough?  

In the end, helping others gain exposure, a larger client base or more money makes me happier than a pig in slop.

Harmony?  She just likes me to work from home. 

Epiphany

Here are the beautiful lyrics from the song "Epiphany" by one of my favorite bands, Staind 

Your words to me just a whisper

Your faces so unclear

I try to pay attention

Your words just disappear

'Cause its always rainin in my head

Forget all the things I should have said

So I speak to you in riddles 

'cause my words get in my way. 

I smoke the whole thing to my head 

and feel it wash away 

'cause i can't take anymore of this, 

I want to come apart.

or dig myself a little hole inside

your precious heart

'Cause its always raining in my head

Forget all the things I should have said

I am nothing more than a little boy inside

That cries out for attention

yet I always try to hide

'Cause I talk to you like children,

Though I don't know how I feel

But I know I'll do the right thing

If the right thing is revealed

'Cause its always raining in my head

Forget all the things I should have said 

And we are off!!

I am working right now on 4 twitter clients, which is amazing considering how recently I started this.  I got my P.R. Degree in 1998 and haven't used it until this year  STOP DOING THE MATH  I am old.  Let it go.

My VP and proofreader is my constant companion, Harmony. 

However, her work ethic is questionable at best.

Having SO much fun

It may sound crazy, but I am having a total BLAST helping my client's build and tweak their twitter accounts so they work for them.  

I have a PR degree and have been in marketing my whole life, but this is seriously FUN.  

Getting paid to do what you really love is amazing.
