So you think being the famous
Joe Mammy is all glamour and fun. Well, it is pretty rockin' to be me, but it isn't all big ticket getaways and babes, no sir. Take this evening for instance:
So I had to check out the scary-looking "A Cinderella Story" with Hilary Duff. And without giving too much away, the film
is the suck. Anyway, it's one thing to have to sit through a film that promises to be substandard. It's not my favorite thing, but I've developed psychological defense mechanisms (halfway through I fade out of consciousness and an alter ego known only as "Lisa" takes over and kills people until the ringing in my head stops. You know, just like everyone else...) but it's doubly bad when it's a film like "A Cinderella Story" or last week's "Sleepover" (reviews are a bit behind on the site... I'm working on it, so soon you'll be able to have all your movie watching needs fulfilled by simply clicking and seeing what sucks and what is "Spider Man 2") because I'm sitting in a theater with nothing other than 10-15 year old girls and the occasional mother.
So I'm sitting all by my lonesome (believe it or not, I have a hard time talking friends into catching screenings of Hilary Duff movies...) trying not to notice that teeny-boppers looking at me like I'm insane. Imagine that classic Sesame Street "one of these things is not like the others song" and then cut to me getting whispered and pointed at by a bunch of early adolescent females. That's bad, but cut to their mothers who look at me disapprovingly, as if my sole purpose (or even secondary or tertiary) reason to be in attendance is to scope out a little piece of jailbait. I can almost hear them whispering to their daughters: "If that man offers you candy, don't take it and scream 'You're not my father!' at the top of your lungs..."
Freakin' sweet, huh? So yeah, there's your peak into the prestigious lifestyle that is
Mammyland. I'm working my sorry tail off this week (again) so new stuff will likely be at a premium, however I'm going to work on a piece for
The Birdhouse still tonight and hopefully get the reviews done as well. On top of that, I'm working on a new song and still have some work to do on the
mc chris remix. That and laundry (yup, the high life never stops for me...) and then back to grind. As a kick I've been listening to the old remixes and I kinda like 'em. They're at the
The NEP site and worth a listen. Oh, and the long-promised updates to the site shall be started tonight. Check out the latest edition to
Joe-Mammy.com;">--the
Joe-Mammy.com Store. All this at no cost to you. Gosh I'm nice...

I feel like a total
schoolgirl with this text coloring stuff. I'm such a sap.
