The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

 
Lo Fun Fact #1
"Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita".
Lo Fun Fact #2
I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.
Lo Fun Fact #3
Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all?
Lo Fun Fact #4
I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.)
Lo Fun Fact #5
I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!!
Lo Fun Fact #6
I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position.
Lo Fun Fact #7
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.

My guardian angel is definitely incognito, not on the job at all.

What do you do when all you've got is the devil in your ear?

    Start talking to God, cause it's very difficult to speak and listen simultaneously.

    Eventually the devil in your ear will move on to less resistant listeners and the battle is won. God gets the victory and you are more at ease.

    You are da bestest!

    We are quick to label things 'good' and 'evil', but keep in mind that God is the Creator of all things, and that which we consider dark and light are often 'intention' and 'counter-intention', the yin and yang of existence. Instead of dismissing what you feel that 'darker' voice is saying to you, examine your conscience, your spirit, your heart......sometimes our intuition/spirit is trying to guide us out of harm's way. We may interpret it as a 'dark force' trying take us off track, but it just might be the voice of reason trying to warn you against something even darker up ahead. Counter-intention, when carefully examined, can often lead us back where we belong.

    Good point, Wise Guy. Everything dark isn't always the devil. The truth can sound dark at first, but if you pay attention, it can lead you to the light. Pray on it.

    As for your guardian angel, he/she is there. God never leaves us unattended.

    Who's messing with my babygirl? Do I need to come to Cleveland?

    What you need is a nice dinner at Geoffrey's in Malibu. That always made you happy. Just close your eyes and picture their two pound lobster, recall the scent of those coconut curry prawns, and think about that kobe platinum sirloin you love so much.

    Breathe in, breathe out. Feel better already, don't you?

    See? Now the devil's gone away!

    You're never alone, Lo. You're surrounded by angels. Don't ever forget that.

    We won't let the devil get you, Lo. You've done too many good things for too many people, myself included. You are loved. You are protected.

    The Devil is always in my ear--that's why I write so much poetry about sin.

    Hey, at least I'm not boring!!!

    That's why you need to come back to L.A. But you already know how I feel about that.

    Your sis Ettevy is always a phone call or plane ride away. Together, we will drive the devil away from you. God is always with you. God will never leave your side. Just talk to God and I guarantee you will feel better. I will always be here for you Key-LoLo!!!

    Cry and clean the bathroom. Always gets God's voice back. Be well.
