So Honey, Anything Interesting Happen At Work Today?

 I enjoy my job.

It’s a warehouse job in an old building in Pioneer Square in Seattle, Washington.

For a writer who writes about the Supernatural, I’m in Inspirational Heaven five days a week.

However.

No way is it as cool as the warehouse job that the people at

Bensons For Beds

Tewksbury Warehouse

in the UK have.

They get to play mattress dominoes

The Lucky  Dogs.

That Stupid Song

The most stupid song to ever be written

was that dumb song

from

The TV show

Here Come The Brides

That song was full of dorky lines and back when I was kid the lines that went:

Like a beautiful child, growing up, free an’ wild
Full of hopes an’ full of fears, full of laughter, full of tears 
Full of dreams to last the years, in Seattle 
. . . in Seattle!

made me want to take a pencil and shove it into my own ear just so that I wouldn’t have to hear the rest of it.

So I was watching the weather report tonight and found out that  here in Seattle’s it’s supposed to get up over 100 degrees ( that’s like 37   Celsius …I think )

and from nowhere I can hear

The bluest skies you’ve ever seen are in Seattle

They sure as heck will be on Wednesday.

 I hope my brains don’t fry in my skull from the heat.

 But it’s possible that stupid, freaking song -which will not leave my head now- could do that before the heat does.

I’m not sure which would be worse at this point.

It’s Official.

My short stories have banned in some places.

Not because I suck

( which is refreshing to hear )

but because my stories

are disturbing.

The Unfunny Spirits Have Struck.

YAYAYAYAYAYAYYYYYYYYYY

How Funny Is That?

I’m all about those weird stories.

I write them, I read them, I buy the DVD’s.

So there’s this new show coming out and I think I was meant  to be a big fan…and here’s the reason why.

Back before our computer systems were changed at work our stores were numbered in the system.

My store was #13

So my location was

Warehouse 13.

Check it out…

Warehouse 13 is going to be on the SCI-FI Channel

Give it a try…and don’t forget to tell them Anita sent you

From Petty Thief To Accused Child Killer-Meet Shawna Forde

I would like you to meet the racist and Anti-Immigration Extremist  Shawna Forde who crawled out from under her rock via the Internet and showed up in my life two years ago.

 fordeAccused Child Killer Shawna Ford, Confronting  Protesters Everett, WA

Shawna Ford,according to her self written legend, decided to save America from the Mexicans after she walked into a unidentified  shopping mall here in Washington state and everyone-excluding herself of course- was speaking Spanish.

Because of the shopping mall incident she went on to hold an Anti-Mexican summit in Everett, Washington where then GOP Presidential Candidate  Duncan Hunter from California  held a Q & A  with Shawna’s group by phone.

My husband organized a protest at this event of Shawna’s and shortly after that his picture with the following quotes appeared on her now defunct website:

( unable to import pictures, though I do have them on file )

 Luis Moscoso, Dist. 1 Democrat kingpin from Mountlake Terrace (with halo) nuzzles up with WA Gov. Christine Gregoire (sitting, no tiara) and other democrats to spend some more taxpayer cash-

Shawna Forde

and

At right, Moscoso, along with a tax-funded La Raza press corps, loses an on-street debate with Minuteman Jim Gilchrist

The open borders crowd, including Democrat Kingpin Luis Moscoso (far left of course), gangs up in La Raza fashion against Minuteman Jim Gilchrist in Everett June 30, 2007. Naturally this bunch has the use of expensive, taxpayer-financed media equipment, and still loses the street debate. Said Gilchrist, “The last refuge of a scoundrel is to call somebody else a racist” (note La Raza’s sign in background) .

 La Raza can’t even poop without Gringo tax money

Shawna Forde

From Her Blog: Forde Defending Our Borders in Arizona

 

Shawna was running for Everett City Council at this time and she had a base of sorts and support until she stole some chocolate milk from a grocery store. That action- not any of the others she had acted upon to that point cost her whatever Political standing and credibility she had in Everett.

 Later, upon returning to her home in Everett from Arizona where she was busy securing the borders, she claims to have been raped by Mexicans in her home. She  refused to cooperate with the Police  in that investigation. Shortly after that story broke  it was suspected she had concocted the story and used makeup to create bruises on her own body- pictures of which began to show up on the Internet.

This of course brings us all to what Shawna is accused of doing to a little girl in Arizona.

Nine Year Old Brisenia Flores- Forde is accused of her murder

Nine Year old Brisenia Flores-Shawna Forde is accused of her murder

When Shawna put my husband on the homepage of her website she also ran a story about a Boy Scout  who lived within a mile from us. In her story she talks about this young man who was a credit to his community, she said, because he was going to defend our borders from the Mexican Invasion.

What I found disturbing then, and horrifies me now is  that Shawna’s Boy Scout  displayed a picture of himself  on his myspace page  and in it he is proudly holding a rifle.

What Shawna Forde was doing in Everett, Washington-what she believed in, her efforts to target people, including  high-school students on her website was out there for everyone to see and she didn’t even cause a ripple in the pond.

Maybe people ignored her because she wasn’t going to show up on their doorstep and demand they go back to Mexico, maybe she came across as such a nut that it was hard to take her seriously The end result was for their own reasons people chose  to not  question what exactly this train wreck of a human being was trying to accomplish.

Richard Chenevix Trench, Dean of Westminster, 1856-63, wrote: ‘Talk of the devil and he is bound to appear’, he was warning against being to curious about evil- that if you get to curious or to close to evil you will bring it into your life.

Maybe that’s why they ignored her in Everett.

The thing of it is when you accept evil into your life, when you tolerate it and foster it the result is the same.

You’ve not just spoken of the Devil you have gotten down on your knees and shouted his name out at the tops of your lungs

and begged him to appear

and

 tragically in Arizona, she did.

PETA And Their Message Of The Day: Exploit Women, Not Dead Fish

The American Veterinarian Association in Seattle, Washington asked the famous Pike Place Market Fish Throwers to open their convention – which is pretty neat because tourists from all over the world go to the Pike Place Market to watch the Fish Throwers at work and if I could get these guys to show up at one of my parties I’d be thrilled.

Now, if you’re not familiar with the Fish Throwers this may all sound kind of weird because indeed Vendors from the Pike Place Market do they toss and catch Fish- if you can’t quite see that think  tossing Pizza dough they toss fish.

It’s awesome.

But strange.

But this weirdness has been topped.

A Spokeswoman from PETA wants to replace the dead fish with Rubber Fish and then the Spokeswoman compared the fish throwing with tossing around dead kittens.

I don’t know who this spokeswoman from PETA  is- her name is Lindsay Rajt and she’s from Norfolk, Virginia still, stranger to me or not-  I would like to nominate her for Queen of The Dingbats- unless of course Lindsay Rajt thinks that she would be cruel to the  sitting Dingbat Queen to take her throne. She probably thinks it would be like cutting the legs off of a Giraffe or something like that.

For real, how did Lindsay Rajt find this event? Did she GOOGLE dead fish and throw? My friends and I GOOGLE weird stuff just to see what we  can get, but when that’s going on we’ve probably been  drinking and want to see who can write the idiot post of the night- so we’ve got an excuse.

But I was wondering: after PETA attempt to save the dead fish at the Convention are they going to go to the Pike Place Market and toss fish heads soaked in super glue at the tourists and Fish Vendors? From there will they go on and liberate Goldfish from their bowls held captive by gawking Kindergarteners and Preschoolers across the rest of King County?  

If what PETA want is attention they shouldn’t be trying to scam free press  by making a scene with the Pike Place Market and the people who work there.  SOME people have to work for a living- not all of us can get money from PETA by  showing our  naked  butts on billboards to help them further their agenda.

Back in B.G. ( that is before GOOGLE )

way back  in the olden days we may have been a little less informed but we had a lot more fun.

Like when 500 Miles by the Proclaimers came out a bunch of my friends asked me what

what “haverin’ ” meant and I said

I didn’t know

which was a lie

and they didn’t believe me so I said it’s the sound guys made when they, um, were happy… you know in bed…

and they thought it was true

and sometimes

they’d say it in that context.

God.

Sometimes I really hate the Internet.

Seriously

Mirror, Mirror On The Wall

 I collect pictures of abandoned buildings- I rarely photograph the ones I’ve actually gone into and spent time in because

when I leave those places

I always feel just a little relieved.

The sun looks brighter and the air smells good and that feeling that something has been looking over my shoulder the enter time I was there is gone.

Poof.

Just like that.

And then today I was thinking about why I don’t have any mirrors in my house- except for the one in my bathroom and I realize that they bother me.

They bother me because when I turn my back on them, I get the same feeling then as the one I feel when I walk away from an Abandoned Building.

Exactly.

The Same.

The Window People

Since last Winter I’ve been catching a bus across the street from where the Window People are.

The Window People like to stand there and watch people go in and out of the Transit Tunnel.

They like to watch the street people sitting in the Park.

They like to watch people like me waiting for our buses.

I know they like to watch because they are always there, standing in the window looking down.

It makes sense- being that the window people are up there – they must see the oddest things from their Window

but I work below the street in an old building and I like to look up when I get outside

you see the oddest things sometimes.
