I actually sent two of my articles to a magazine today. Can you believe it???? I was so shocked with myself I had to slap myself in the face twice for good measure. Unfortunatley there a good and bad points to this.
Good Point: I sent two articles to and editor at an online magazine
Bad Point: It is a magazine for mostly middle eastern folk
Good Point: Meh, what the hell, I can pretend- its not a paid position anyway
Bad Point: Editor says, Hey Pixie, (IF THAT IS YOUR REAL NAME) can you write some stories in Arabic?
Bad Point: Pixie exits with tail between legs crying at the her own stupidity.
Its ok, I am working on promoting as much content as possible. Plus my lovely princess friend Jess, who luckily for me works for a publication, will keep her eye out on some writing jobs. The sun is coming out!
On a bad note, I once again, got in a fight with
a) my husband last night- who blames everything on me and who on even good days acts like a 2 year old with crap in his diaper.
b) my 7 year old daughter, who for some mysterious reason, is exibiting the sighs of PMS. Hello hormones in all our milk and meat.
c) The ASSFACE that I work for, you know the guy who is not really my boss but pretends he is. Who technically I was hired to be his assistant, when Mother Teresa herself would kill this motherfucker.
ASSFACE: what is this illustration doing in this file?
Pixie: The client needs to sign it, in order to process his application
ASSFACE: well this illustration is 3 months old, his premium is going to go up now. (increasingly yelling at me) HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DELIVER THIS TO HIM NOW?
Pixie: Well that is the only one we have, and he didn’t sign it 3 months ago WHEN HE WAS SUPPOSED TO so what would you like me to do?
ASSFACE: I DONT BELIEVE THIS. YOU ARE TELLING ME YOU DIDNT REALIZE THIS?
Pixie: (increasingly vulgar language is now spewing from the hole in my face)
It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
You fill a much-needed gap- because the world simply does not have enough ASSHOLES.
Now Pixie may need a new job. But I wouldnt go out any other way.
MWAH!!!
