I did it.
I have officially entered the world of a travel writer. I have actually accomplished a small part of my dream. I have received nothing but amazing comments and words of congratulations. I can’t stop grinning. At one point today I sat back in my chair and I wanted to bawl with the happiness of it all, my GOD!
I need a fucking drink.
Thank-you, Matador Travel, for giving an amateur a shot! Dedicated followers, I know I’ve said it before, but go check out the site. A more supportive, dedicated community of writers could not possibly exist.
Also, meet Baby Candice Jr. the Fifth, complete with sub woofer and shiny keys:
Don’t flout me for the messy workspace. Where mostly I paint my fingernails with clear polish.
SO SHINY. And it comes with a remote control, although I don’t why. I’m finally able to download music again! And porn. And set up a webpage. Which brings me to my request: what are you listening to these days?
My only problem with this laptop is that the screen is too clear. Every time a page dims, I catch sight of my double-chin in the reflection. Jesus, I hope nobody ever hacks my webcam. Braless, disheveled Candice with two-chins. Nightmares ensue.
Anyway, here’s some more jewels from the weekend.
So I take this picture and then shoot my drink. After proudly slamming the glass onto the counter, I notice everyone staring at me peculiarly.
“Did you just shoot that?” says Chef.
“Yes.”
“You do realize this is scotch on the rocks.”
Some words from my Mother:

Thank you! And 10 pm is still early evening for me, although it’s beginning to feel more late everyday.

Love it! Who wouldn’t want to visit Newfoundland after reading that? Never having visited while being anywhere near the legal age, I can’t wait to visit George Street on my next trip.

Ugh, access to the site has been blocked by work. Otherwise I would have read your newly published ass! Congrats oh fellow redheadian. I am currently listening to a random british band that NOONE has ever heard of called Scouting for Girls. They are responsible for the song I Wish I Was James Bond. Awesomeness!
