"Old people can be so sweet"
A few things to get to, since no blogging for the rest of the week.
Laguna Beach...wtf!...they have a BOOK? I love Laguna Beach, but come on fans should know when theyr'e stretching their two seconds left of fame...and what is up with that girl CRYING? Geezus it's only Talan...they aren't even reality show celebs, they're people that had a camera follow them. A camera could follow that crazy crying girl. And Talan is NASTY...not like my boy Stephen...now HE is worth bawling over.
Now the sun is setting,
Getting ready for tomorrow.Soon the moon'll be glowing,
Showing off the moonlight.
Take a look above you,
Discover the view.
If you haven't noticed,
Please do. Please do. Please do.

Now that Angelina and Brad have made it publicly official they're a couple....I realized...I just don't like them. I really do miss the Brad and Jen days. They look so....unapprochoable as a couple. She's got that "I'm the sexiest woman on the planet but I'm also mentally crazy and I'm a UN ambassador who helps the world's children and my dad is Jon Voight" thing going on...and now he's not the "hot husband next door", now he's the "I'm uber good looking while I help my girlfriend help the world's children and who's dad is Jon Voight"...
And I do NOT think Jennifer Aniston is pretty, but Vince Vaughn is hot in that "my brother's cool friend" kind of way, and the two of the make that "almost good looking...but not quite" kind of couple...so I totally approve and I'm now on Team Jen.
Let's go through the teams shall we?
I'm on:
Team LC (aka Lauren)
Team Aniston
Team Ritchie
I should get a tshirt for each. I also HAVE to buy a "Donna Martin graduates!" shirt....doesn't fall under my "elegance and refinement" goal for 2006, but that's just too good to pass up.
Forbes magazine listed the Top 10 aphrodisiacs (not sure what that has to do about finances, but whatever):
Barry White tunes: Truly frigid is the heart, mind and body that won't melt to the mellifluous come-ons of the most one-track baritone in history. Try: "It's Ecstasy When You Lay Down Next to Me," "Your Love--So Good I Can Taste It," "I'm Qualified to Satisfy You," "I'll Do For You Anything You Want Me To," and of course, "Can't Get Enough of Your Love Babe."
Hmmm, never had anyone try that on me...probably because I keep thinking of Bleeding Gums Murphy every time I hear Barry White...but I did spend a weekend away listening to Marvin Gaye...I highly recommend it!
A few stiff drinks: A zillion tipsy one-night-standers can't be wrong. Though the ladies on Sex In The City still swill Cosmos, in the end it really doesn't matter what you drink, so long as you do. Just be careful: As Shakespeare noted of booze in "Macbeth": "it provokes the desire, but it takes away the performance."
That should be #1. It may take away the performance of men, but certainly not for chicks.
A dozen oysters: If, as Jonathan Swift observed, "He was a bold man that first eat an oyster," then he was a brilliant man that first tried these tangy and lubricious little bi-pods for seduction. Freshen up afterwards with a moist towelette.
I'd rather put a fork in my eye than eat an oyster
Promises, promises: "Sure, baby, I'll hook you up with that producer friend of mine." "Of course they're orchestra seats--nothing less for you, my little turtledove." "Paris in the fall? No problem, sweetie." Repeat as necessary.
Interesting idea. I can't imagine what I could ever promise a guy (other than sex itself) that would actually turn a guy on. I suppose I could tell Kraig "yes sweetie, you can get Raiders season tix again"...
A little skin: There's a reason why the Taliban covers women in chadors--although the same can be said for men as well. There's nothing like a bared midriff or well-turned calf to put a snap in your turban.
Shouldn't this be #2? And speaking of skin, let's go through the most important parts of a guy's body: his hands (we do NOT want nasty ugly hands touching us...get an effing manicure if you have to), the back of his neck (why a haircut is SO important...a guy's neck is like....gold....), and shoulders...the guy has to be able to swing you over his shoulders in case of a fire...
Manolo Blahniks: Well, they're certainly not made for walking. . . Sexy for her, seductive for him and at those prices, cheaper than a suite at the Ritz. In basic black leather, of course.
The key thing here is shoes...see my other blog written by Felicity Huffman...we fantastize about shoes. Yes, a damn fine shoe can get any girl's blood pumping to the nether-regions.
Backrubs: Alternately chaste and erotic at the same time, backrubs are a tried-and-true prelude to, ahem, more intimate relations. The theory is that once someone lets you knead their neck and shoulders they may let you satisfy other needs as well.
This should be #3...backrubs are a "legitimate" method to touch someone, playing innocent when there's an ulterior motive and both people know it.
Perfume: Yeats wrote that "love comes in at the eye" but, as anyone who has ever had their olfactory bells rung by a whiff of Chanel No. 5 can tell you, the nose can also successfully stimulate the pheromones. It's a matter of basic chemistry: perfume + body heat = arousal.
Should be #4. A guy's pheromones make ALL the difference. The only thing that sucks is when a guy sprays on too much cologne, and then if you kiss his neck and you taste it...nasty.
Money: Call us cynical but few aphrodisiacs are as potent as a big bank account. Money may not be able to buy love but what it can buy may make you a lot more attractive.
I'd like to say this isn't true, but I also dated a rich guy for almost 4 years and I'm sure somewhere in there the money part was a big turn on!
A diamond engagement ring: The ultimate aphrodisiac. For women, that is. For men, it can often have quite the reverse effect.
True dat.
I'm hungry. Gonna scour the building for food. Probably Famous Amos. Damn that crunchy cookie. i don't even LIKE chocolate chip cookies really.
The song of the day is Don't Forget About Us by Mariah Carey
Baby I must confess
We were bigger than anything
Remember us at our best
And don't forget about

Kissing my blog just feels right
Ha ha I never do these surveys but I got it from Beatriz's myspace page so...why not:
Which I get the feeling is the answer to everything in that quiz.
| You're an Passionate Kisser |
 For you, kissing is about all about following your urges If someone's hot, you'll go in for the kiss - end of story You can keep any relationship hot with your steamy kisses A total spark plug - your kisses are bound to get you in trouble |
Which I get the feeling is the answer to everything in that quiz.
I like my blog with no ice
I got an email from Erin who's in labor (I gotta give props to someone who will send an email to people when she's having contractions...especially since she uses dial-up), and she wrote:
This morning I spent an hour running (ya, picture it!) around the front lawn in the snow with MacKenna while Greg got the plastic up on the windows to cut down on the drafts.
Anyone who was raised in California would have NO IDEA what she's talking about. Kind of made me smile. Kinda makes me homesick.
...
but also makes me glad that I'm not the one putting plastic on my windows to keep out the drafts this winter.
On a different story....
Marmalade DEFINITELY needs to go back on her medication. She peed on Kraig this morning. I give her credit though, at least she didn't do it on ME which is obviously the most important part. My poor baby just has alot of anxiety and stress...you would too if the only other one of your species was a big dairy cow who keeps mauling you.
I had a dream last night that had hints of "Lost" in it, there was a quarantine area and that "dharma" logo was everywhere. Nicole's cat Chelsea got infected with something and the only way we could keep safe was to stay in a room with the doors closed, and I kept having to go in and out and the entire time Nicole just kept saying "but my BABY! my poor BABY!" (we're talking about CHelsea)... I don't know what that dream means, when you dream about someone else's cat getting all Night Of The Living Dead on you....

We're all strangers. I'm Seth. I like comic books. You obviously like...uhhh...flaming-heart tattoos
So much to get to, so little blog space.
1. The Husband of the Year for 2004 was Nick Lachey. His 5-year plan to de-spoil Jessica was brilliant. The award for 2005 hands down goes to Rev. Run....in fact, he should get husband of the year AND Father of the Year.
IN FACT....when I grow up, I want to be just like Rev Run. In last night's finale he kept bugging his wife by launching into Foo Fighters at random innapropriate moments...that's exactly what I would do. And he's a fantastic father...okay not really but he's FUNNY which is more important.
2. If i can't be Run when I grow up, then I want to be Summer from the OC. In fact, I might even want to be Taylor Townsend because she's in her own loony world. Really, I can't stress enough how much I want to be a 16 year old kid in Newport or Laguna Beach.
3. Sorry, no meaningful IMs with my mom lately....I haven't even replied to her when she's sent messages...too busy/tired/sick to make the effort. I can't stress enough the mental effort it takes to not argue with her.
4. I realized I really am an idiot...I've barely kept up my French, and back in the day I used to be able to read Arabic. Couldn't understand a word of it, but I could read it. Well after I was 16 or so I stopped practicing and never kept it up, sort of as a silent protest at my dad for making me learn to read something that I don't understand....the smart thing to do would have been to LEARN THE EFFING LANGUAGE...now I think i could recite the alphabet, at best.
5. It's disgusting how much sleep I plan on doing over Thanksgiving weekend. Seriously. Don't even check for a pulse. I plan on having permanent pillow marks on my face. I'm salivating at the thought of it.
6. I can't believe Tuesday will be the last time we get to have indian with Nicole. WTF. It's an abomination against the working man to not be able to take a longer lunch in order to get your indian groove on.
7. Is someone getting the best, the best, the best of you....
8. The Album of the Year in 2004 was Gwen's solo debut....for 2005, clearly, it's Madonna's Confessions On a Dance Floor. Fantabulous.
9. I think I need to put Marmalade back on anti-anxiety medication. Yes, Kitty Prozac. I hate doing that to her....she's calmer but she also ends up being a completely different cat, and I hate that...I always end up taking her off of it because I miss my Marmalade. But this peeing thing is out of control, and I've been TRYING to give her more attention but it's hard at 5am!
10. Self tanner is the most fabulous thing on earth.
11. A gay hairdresser who knows the cast of Laguna Beach is the most fabulous thing on earth. Wtf: apparently Stephen is SHORT?! He towers over Kristen. But apparently he IS hot. Which I already knew. But Henry claims he's gay. He is SOOOO not gay. He can't be. He CAN'T. And he's not short.
Saw Derailed yesterday. The "takeaways" from the movie:
- Don't f*ck around behind your wife's back
- When someone asks you for a chunk of cash, don't give it, because then they'll come back wanting more
- Don't try pulling a move like pushing a car into the ocean...it only works in movies
- The ticket takers on the train are Nazis
On another note, there's one part where the bad guy starts speaking in French (with no subtitles) and he said something that translated to "kiss your ass"...but then I remembered the word he used for "kiss" was a word that a teacher once told us to REALLY not use, even though yes in the dictionary it translated to "kiss"...
And yesterday finally...after 15 years of wondering why it was bad to say that word even though it meant kiss, I realized it translated to "f*ck"....and the dude in the movie was saying how he was pretty much f*cking Clive Owen up the ass...
After 15 years of not knowing, I'm finally at peace.
On another note, Jennifer Aniston has a great body but really, her face is NOT attractive...she maxes out her looks...but...she's just not a pretty girl. I'm sorry. She's not.
The song of the day is My Hump by B.E.P...I hate Black Eyed Peas but I do like this song, and for some reason every time I wear this skirt I keep thinking that song is playing when I walk.
I’m a make, make, make, make you scream
Make u scream, make you scream.

MADONNA DAY! MADONNA DAY!
I know.
Blow my mind.
The new Madonna CD is out.
And it's MOTHER EFFING FANTASTIC.
Today's song of the day is Forbidden Love by of course, Madonna...
Just one kiss on my lips
was all it took to seal the future
Just one look from your eyes
was like a certain kind of torture
Once upon a time
there was a boy and there was a girl
Just one touch from your hands
was all it took to make me falter
[Chorus:]
Forbidden love, are we supposed to be together?
Forbidden love, forbidden love
Forbidden love, we save our destiny forever
Forbidden love, forbidden love
Just one smile on your face
was all it took to change my fortune
Just one word from your mouth
was all I needed to be certain
Once upon a time
there was a boy and there was a girl
Hearts that intertwine
they lived in a different kind of world
[Chorus]
Just one kiss, just one touch, just one look
[Chorus - twice]
Just one kiss, just one touch, just one look, just one love
One...

My_Mom: today +8
ME: i went to see a concert on Sat night. Yesterday i worked.
My_Mom: we used the good weather to finish out yard
My_Mom: worked at the office?
ME: partially, and then also at home.
My_Mom: r u the only technical writer in your office?
My_Mom: why does it take 6 months to finish a document
ME: i never said it took 6 months to finish something, and i'm not the only tech writer.
My_Mom: how many are there in your office?
ME: 2. I'm not a full time technical writer, i do other things.
My_Mom: and for what are u writing a technical document?
ME: one of our products.
My_Mom: one product should be done many times over?
My_Mom: how many products do u have?
My_Mom: what other things do u do in the office?
ME: go see our website: ((link to my company's website))
My_Mom: k
My_Mom: lots of products
ME: yep
My_Mom: ((insert a line that my mom shouldn't have written via IM))
My_Mom: anyway, i leave u alone so u can concentrate on your work
ME: okay
Tuesday's IM:
My_Mom: hi sabina, whats up
ME: nothing how are you
My_Mom: doing ok
My_Mom: snowing today
My_Mom: but freezing rain later on and tomorrow and thursday its warmer again, after that getting colder
ME: So question...in muslim funerals, do muslims get buried in a box or in the ground?
My_Mom: in a box
ME: good to know.
My_Mom: hehe
My_Mom: a cheap plywood box
My_Mom: but u can have a fancy coffin, if u think your deceased body is worth that much
ME: I can't even imagine how expensive a plot of land is for burial in california. It's like buying a small house.
My_Mom: its up to the person
My_Mom: well muslims have their own arrangements and burial grounds at reasonable prices
ME: Well okay that's great but it's still real estate, and i'm sure there's limited room.
My_Mom: like u have to ask the mosque where the burial site is
ME: it's still california...they had to buy the land themselves for super pricey
ME: The burial site is in Riverside, which is WAY out.
My_Mom: the muslim one?
My_Mom: ottawa has a site now, burial of a muslim there costs 4000 $ I think
My_Mom: the islamic institue in cornwall bought a piece of land adjacent to them from the city at a reasonable price and its now a cemetary where people get buried for free
ME: good to know
My_Mom: u have to find out where those muslim cemetaries are
ME: okay
My_Mom: and ask how much it costs, muslims do it cheaper and there is no embalming, the body is buried immediately according to islamic tradition
My_Mom: its all that fuss, embalming, keeping the body in a cooler and for viewing, expensive cars for hire etc., expensive coffin, it ends up to 20 000 $
ME: okay
My_Mom: thats why most people now want cremation, it's cheaper and only costs like 2000 - 4000
ME: yep
My_Mom: but muslims want to keep it simple and thats why the cost stays down
My_Mom: its actually an islamic duty to keep a burial simple, as all else in life
ME: okay
My_Mom: also if one has a lot of money, u can spend a lot for it too, but embalming is forbidden and not burying the body as fast as possible
My_Mom: make sure no cremation ok
My_Mom: make sure kraig doesnt do that
ME: i know
My_Mom: like he doesnt know
ME: he knows
My_Mom: ok
My_Mom: well its just a very important thing
ME: ok
My_Mom: christians and jews arent supposed to cremate either, but with the costs of a normal burial so high, they opt for it
ME: ok
My_Mom: anyway, if god forbid something does happen, just call the local mosque and they will step in and help, tell u or kraig how to go about
ME: ok
My_Mom: and usually the plot might be cheaper, if the land is owned by muslims already
ME: ok
My_Mom: they are not doing this to do business, but to offer a service
ME: ok
My_Mom: also i can imagine it might be more expensive in cali, with everything else being so expensive
ME: ok
My_Mom: would be interesting to find out, the local mosque can give u some information about it
ME: ok
My_Mom: how is the weather there?
ME: warm
My_Mom: how is marmalade, wish i could hug her and stashi pooh
ME: she's fine
My_Mom: stashi still being full of mischief ?
My_Mom: annoying poor marma
ME: yep, they wrestle
My_Mom: hehe, he is just playful
My_Mom: some woman in manitoba won last saturday's 649 lotto of 27 mill
My_Mom: lucky woman
My_Mom: trudi gave me a super7 ticket good for 10 weeks on my birthday, nothing
ME: aww
My_Mom: well hello 27 mill, i could live with that
My_Mom: imagine
My_Mom: even 1 mill i would be thrilled
My_Mom: question....
My_Mom: is it important to click on "log out" when leaving your email?
My_Mom: or is it ok just to close the window?
ME: you can close the window, use "log out" if you're sharing a computer with someone, like at a librry
ME: library
My_Mom: k
My_Mom: c u
ME: bye
My_Mom: hi there
ME: how are you?
My_Mom: fine and u
ME: Doing good. ANything exciting happen this weekend?
My_Mom: how was the weekend?

Blast from the past
I'm in the middle of cleaning and I'm putting away some stuff that I had grabbed from my parents' place this summer...out fell a note...it was a formal letter written by Darren T. , this dude that 2 of my friends were madly in love with (and one of them, Kelly, lost her virginity to him and then i was stuck listening to every horrible moment of it re-lived every single night on the phone as she agonized over him...geezus...)...he had written some formal letter thing for his job and I found it absolutely hilarious at the time, I asked him to let me have it when he was done (he used to clean apartments while he was a student).
August 22, 1991 **one year before she lost her virginity to him, so sad that I know the exact weekend she did that with him to this day**
On Saturday, June 15, 1001, I saw the resident from apartment 715 about to commence urinating down the garbage chute as I was doing a routine garbage run. As I was cleaning the ashtray, I saw him come out of his apartment (715) and walk into the disposal room (he didn't notice me). As I waslked over to clean the disposal room, I noticed the man was standing in front of the chute with the zipper of his jeans down and ready to urinate. He then noticed me and walked back into 715.
Also, on numerous occasions I've had to mop out the elevator after he had done his duty.
I've also had many complaints from tenants that the carpets in the elevators (now tile floor) smelled of urine.

It cracked me up back then, and it cracks me up now.

Jaaaane says.....
I wasn't going to blog this weekend, because clearly I've been doing WAY too much random writing about nothing...but...
mother
effer
So i finally took my car in because I thought the wheel alignment was off (my passengers were in constant fear the car shook so much)...made Kraig wake up super early so I could be the first car in the shop...
ugh
ugh
UGH
There's some sort of wheel separation thing...and even Kraig was like "holy crap your tires on the inside are almost bald"...and my back struts are completely worn (I'm the QUEEN of buying struts...I should open up my own business)...
So what I hoped would cost maybe say $100....$200 bucks...
Is costing me almost $900.
The guy felt pretty bad for me because I was griping about my IAC motor issue from last time, so he's giving me free wheel alignment/balancing/whatever for life...
Will someone PLEASE kill me. Please.
NINE HUNDRED BUCKS.
I'm still recuperating from the property tax payment...I was banking on having no major costs between Sept and January (yes, even with Xmas...)...
That's $900 that could go to that gorgeous gorgeous GORGEOUS bracelet...
Or new clothes...
Or my ghetto master bathroom...
Or airfare somewhere...far far away....
Or partially towards a new laptop...
Or for the lipo I'm going to need after eating all the chocolate after seeing my credit card bill (Did I mention that I still have to pay for the lawyer who's setting up our trust/living trust stuff?).
Maybe I can convince Kraig to make some deposits at a sperm bank. Do we have one in orange county?
Oh the humanity. I'm having a serious mental breakdown right now.
And with interest rates...arhghghg....my mortgage is somewhere around $2500 a month....damn adjustable home equity line of credit...
End of my griping....I'm going to crawl in bed, wait for the car guy to call me, and pray that magically I wake up rich and fabulous and...well just rich.
(with less wrinkles)
Edited to add: picked up my car, and asked the guy "was it really THAT unsafe?"...he shows me my tires...the insides were so worn from the separation issue, the METAL was showing through...he told me he was amazed my tires didn't blow. What's sad...is that I have had my tires blow before. Good times.
Edited to add later: mother. effer. With today's charge, my credit card bill will be $2595. And i always pay my credit card bill in full. I think the cutoff was a few days ago, so hopefully today's charge will spill into next month's bill. Wait, next month's bill will have the other half of the lawyer's fee. ((BLEEP)). And here I wanted to "splurge" and spend $30 on a box of grey contact lenses. Time to start putting up stuff on ebay again!

My blog has lots of wrinkles
Just to show how much i've effing aged in the past 2.5 years...a few wedding photos for you. Sigh. I look so YOUNG!
The wrinkles around my mouth are starting to get pretty bad. I look like an effing smoker.
On a completely unrelated note, I have to re-read Lion, Witch & The Wardrobe for the umpteenth time before I go see the movie. It's going to be SO effing awesome. Except for the actress who plays Lucy. WTF.
Getting old blows goats.

"Ryan, please don't hit Summer"
Only understood by people who watch the OC...
Everything I wish I knew in highschool, I could have learned from the OC
aka What We Can All Learn From The OC
1. Walk around with coffee. In a cardboard cup, not a mug or a to-go mug. If your highschool doesn't sell coffee, then just go to starbucks each morning and then carry aruond the empty cup all day. That's the ticket to popularity.
2. If you're too much of a p*ssy to fight someone yourself, your buddy from the boondocks (e.g. Chino) will always step in and initiate the first punch for you.
3. Forcing people to hang out with you overnight is no way to make friends. But it'll land you a guy every time.
4. Eating a bagel with shmear every day will make you a bushy eyebrowed happy-go-lucky lawyer from Berkeley too.
5. Every high school should have the skinny, dorky nerd who wears argyle but makes up for it with his wit and sarcasm....and if your highschool has one, then snag him while he's still considered a loser.**
6. If you're a guy, make sure you're skinnier than your girlfriend. Hot rich chicks dig that.
7. Even the most gorgeous girl in school can be hated because she wears sweaters tied around her neck.
8. Want to win a guy who's already got a girlfriend? Get the girlfriend to cheat on her boyfriend. (this works for the opposite sex as well).
9. Even enemy surfers have "surf-offs". Okay well they never did that on the OC. But it was suggested, and I agree.
10. Want to bond with a girl? Lie and tell her that you beat the crap out of someone with a baseball bat, but SHHHH it's a secret and no one knows. She'll be putty in your hand. Especially if she shot someone and can relate.
11. Girls with big teeth are insecure about losing their boyfriends. And they should. Those teeth can do SERIOUS damage. Don't worry...be happy....and file those suckers down.
12. When Seven of Nine starts calling you "Kiki", you know you're in trouble.
13. Don't ever, ever go through a friend's wallet to use her credit card.
Use it to find cash instead.
14. Want to blow a guy's mind away? Dress up like a comic book heroine. Even if it's NOT hallowe'en.
15. Don't ever, ever make out with your adopted-grandfather's girlfriend.
16. Even if you become a lesbian, someone still's gotta take out the trash and pay the rent.
17. In case it was a mystery: sleeping with your daughter's ex boyfriend WILL eff her up in the head. Bad. Especially if she lost her virginity to him.
18. If the aforementioned school nerd is a virgin, cut him some slack for the first time around. Him and Captain Oats will get it right the next time around...and the next....(it helps to wear the comic book heroine costume).
19. If you want to rule your school you don't need to be the most popular kid, you just need to be the one sleeping with the Dean.
20. Water polo guys are evil. And they have CRAZY floppy hair.
21. Having an affair with your coworker (who later leaves to join the cast of 4400) will cause you to be an alcoholic. Especially if you two went to a winery together.
22. If you're going to find a rich sugar daddy who might die of old age, make sure he really IS rich.
23. Stay away from people who look like Seven of Nine. Unless her name is Carrie :P
24. If you ever lose your alcholic drugged up friend in Mexico, just look in an alley. The answer is always in an alley.
The song of the day is Man, I Feel Like A Woman by Shania Twain...nothing like when your coworkers, your MALE EFFING COWORKERS, put songs in your head....
PS: I STILL WANT THAT BRACELET. YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
**So my high school had no hot nerds, but the biggest nerd was Patrick B. Every class I had with him I was CONSTANTLY asking him his grades,b ecause I wanted to beat him and he was the smartest kid in school. Probably the coolest smart nerd ever.
In grade 8, when i first met him, I heard he had had surgery on his penis. But no one would talk to him about it. So i remember on a cross-country ski trip I sat next to him on the bus and flat out asked him if he had surgery on his man-meat. He went into SUPER detail about how they sliced it along the length, did whatever operation, and then sewed it back up.
It was a horrible, horrible penile tale to tell, but I highly respected him for having the balls (ha ha bad pun) to be honest with me about it.
Later on, when we were all applying to universities, he had applied and gotten into Laurentian, which was the most ghetto of them all. I was like "guy" (previous to saying "dude" i used to call people "guy" and "woman") "you can get into McGill, Western, Waterloo...the smart people schools. Why did you pick Laurentian?"
And he said
"Because that's where all the smart people are going. If i go to the dumb people school, then I'll be the smartest one there"...which proved that in the end, he was smarter than any of us could ever imagine.
Last I heard, he became an insane pot smoker.
However his goal in life, as Einstein-level as he was, was to build a log cabin in the woods and live with the wolves. Seriously. It HAD to be with the wolves.
I think I just might hunt him down on the 'net....

24. If you ever lose your alcholic drugged up friend in Mexico, just look in an alley. The answer is always in an alley.
The song of the day is Man, I Feel Like A Woman by Shania Twain...nothing like when your coworkers, your MALE EFFING COWORKERS, put songs in your head....
PS: I STILL WANT THAT BRACELET. YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
**So my high school had no hot nerds, but the biggest nerd was Patrick B. Every class I had with him I was CONSTANTLY asking him his grades,b ecause I wanted to beat him and he was the smartest kid in school. Probably the coolest smart nerd ever.
In grade 8, when i first met him, I heard he had had surgery on his penis. But no one would talk to him about it. So i remember on a cross-country ski trip I sat next to him on the bus and flat out asked him if he had surgery on his man-meat. He went into SUPER detail about how they sliced it along the length, did whatever operation, and then sewed it back up.
It was a horrible, horrible penile tale to tell, but I highly respected him for having the balls (ha ha bad pun) to be honest with me about it.
Later on, when we were all applying to universities, he had applied and gotten into Laurentian, which was the most ghetto of them all. I was like "guy" (previous to saying "dude" i used to call people "guy" and "woman") "you can get into McGill, Western, Waterloo...the smart people schools. Why did you pick Laurentian?"
And he said
"Because that's where all the smart people are going. If i go to the dumb people school, then I'll be the smartest one there"...which proved that in the end, he was smarter than any of us could ever imagine.
Last I heard, he became an insane pot smoker.
However his goal in life, as Einstein-level as he was, was to build a log cabin in the woods and live with the wolves. Seriously. It HAD to be with the wolves.
I think I just might hunt him down on the 'net....
I could be fabulous....
Quick blog...

Matter fact I can't wait for your candy rain
How effing awesome is this:
'Terminator' TV series planned
FOX has given the go-ahead to a pilot for a new TV series rooted in the Terminator franchise.
The Sarah Connor Chronicles will track what happened to the character after she went on the run at the end of the second movie. John Connor will also feature.
"She has the weight of the world on her shoulder and she also has to raise a 14-year-old son who may be the salvation of the world," producer James Middleton told Variety.
Although exact details of the plotline have yet to be revealed, Middleton confirmed that the series would have a "connection" to the film franchise but added that it would not affect plans for a fourth big screen outing.
Writer Josh Friedman (War of the Worlds) added: "The last thing I want to do is take a title and exploit it. The show needs to stand on its own while still being respectful of the franchise."
If greenlit, the series would likely air in the 2006-07 season.
The only other thing that would be fabulous would be if Arnie can get off his ass and seriously make T4 like he says he will....

...without which, I might never be tardy
From Esquire Magazine
13 Things You Don't Know About Women, by Felicity Huffman (I love her, so that's why I'm writing this)
1. It's not really the shoes. It's how they make our legs look. True, except when you're wearing pants...sometimes the shoes themselves are like a work of art.
2. Women also fantasize during sex.
Ohhh 'cause guys would never dream of that happening to them!
3. And sometimes those fantasies are about shoes.
You know, I've never done that, but dang that would make me hot and heavy too.
4. If you want to see us naked more often, turn up the damn thermostat.
SO TRUE!!! I've got a drawer of frilly little things...but what do i end up wearing? A big sweatshirt, track pants, and socks to sleep! If it were up to me I'd have a thousand blankets on the bed.
5. A big dick is a bore if it's attached to a big dick.
True dat!
6. We can pee standing up, but it's not pretty.
Yeah so not pretty, it's not really peeing so much as just expelling fluids everywhere. NOT attractive.
7. We can't hear a word yuo're saying if there are hairs coming out of your nose.
8. If you would just listen to us, we'd shut up.
EXACTLY!!!
9. Want sex? Fix something.
Yep, i put this under the "the most romantic thing a guy can do is vacuum" category. I'm telling you, it's all about chopping wood...guys getting back to being all manly and stuff....that's what i'm talkin' about!
10. Women want empathy, not advice.
I actually tend to disagree, because I really do want to find solutions to problems, otherwise i tend to just bottle everything up if i know there's no advice that can be given. So...that's a guideline for any guy out there.
11. It's still a man's world, and some of it you can keep.
12. You would be crazy, too, if your insides fell out every 28 days.
I never thought about it that way. YES indeed that is a valid reason for craziness.
13. Some handy translations for men:
"You're working too hard" = "you're not spending enough time with me"
"No presents for my birthday" = "Surprise me!"
"What are you thinking about" = "do you still love me?"
YES YES YES she nailed it! That IS what we mean, and I didn't even know what I meant when i said it, but YES YES YES that's what we mean!
"Do you want to talk about it" = I want to talk about it"
"Fuck you. I can't stand you" = "Fuck you. I can't stand you"
So I was in a weird mood the past few days which caused me to listen to stupid sappy stuff in my car but now i'm OVER that mood (see the "insides falling out every 28 days" comment, above) I'll make the song of the day the king of all sappy ones and be done with it.
The song of the day is Groovy Kind of Love by Phil Collins
Anytime you want to you can turn me onto
Anything you want to, anytime at all
When I kiss your lips, I start to shiver
Can’t control the quivering inside
Wouldn’t you agree, baby you and me got a groovy kind of love, oh
When I’m feeling blue, all I have to do
Is take a look at you, then I’m not so blue
When I’m in your arms, nothing seems to matter
My whole world could shatter, I don’t care
Yep, that's the good stuff when you're in a weird sappy bizarre mood.
And i still want that bracelet. THAT's what I want to fantastize about.
Edited to add: dang why did I click on this on the Blogger website?

Quickie Blog...sometimes you just gotta have it quick
Letters to the editor:
I DON'T YELL!!!... and is there a difference if the CPG is Asian? Just wanna know.
Let's review the acronyms briefly:
CFG: Crazy Fun Girl. This is a good thing.
PC:Psycho Chick. Bad thing. BAD THING. Run like mad.
I'm assuming you meant the latter.
Is there a difference? Nope...PC knows no ethnicity, no borders...I dunno, maybe if she's asian she might be a sexy Psycho Chick, but still psycho is psycho and its just a bad scene.
On another note, I thought this was hilarious: Madonna has a MySpace page
And yes it's hers, I got the link from her website.
The song of the day is the song for the Laguna Beach finale commercial, It's Good To Be In Love by Frou Frou
It's good to be in love.
It really does suit you
Just like everything.
I'm happy you're in love,
'Cause every colour goes where you do.
(click here to be reminded of the song in case you forgot that wonderful 30 second clip of the commercial...sigh...i'll be so sad when those silly kids grow up!)
Done with the random thought, onto the griping...
1. I hate my exit off the highway...every morning it's a power struggle between the people who want to exit the 5 at Alton vs. the people getting on the highway and trying to get into more lanes...pain in my ass.
2. WTF is wrong with the voting public! ARHGHGHG! I almost beat myself with my own purse while listening to the results on the radio this morning.
3. I can't stand this weather. Yeah, it's like perfect picnic weather. I know. But I don't know what to wear each morning, I have either uber winter clothing or summery crap, and either way I end up spending half my day at work FREEZING or SWEATING BUCKETS...temperature modulation isn't so great.
I think i'm going to buy that Frou Frou CD...it's not my kind of music, although I do dig Enya and it's similar, and I have to go buy that Madonna CD on Tuesday anyway. Now if only I could find my missing OLP and Vanessa Paradis CDs, i'd be set.

Waiting for your call baby night and day
Some news tidbits....
RETURN TO THE ROAD: Madonna may launch a tour in support of her new album, Confessions on a Dance Floor, which hits stores Nov. 15. The first single, "Hung Up," is heating up the charts and is also being featured in episodes of CSI: Miami and CSI: NY this week.
One week.
One week.
ONE EFFING WEEK.
I've seen her twice in concert, both times I was a little disappointed (I mean, for $100/ticket, I should be!) but this is VERY dance-ish...so she won't sit around playing a stupid effing guitar (Okay, I get it, you learned an intrument. Give the girl a prize. Now put on some cones and dance like a mofo). So I would for SURE go see her again. I love my Madge.
JOCK SHOCKED: Howard Stern receiving a one-day suspension from his morning radio show after he spent much of Monday promoting his move to Sirius Satellite Radio next year. He's due back on air Wednesday.
Yes....YES YES c'mon Howard, keep doing that...because I bought a few Sirius stocks (and i mean, seriously, a FEW...i don't have oodles of cash to blow on stocks when I could buy that gorgeous, gorgeous bracelet) and yesss it went up...thank you Howard!
So after months of discussing the merits of Crazy Fun Girl (which by the way, is even kind of mentioned in the December issue of Glamour, except the girl to the extreme), we do need to mention Psycho Girl.
Psycho Girl comes into play after you've been dating for a guy for awhile and you realize you really like him.
I mean, REALLY like him.
This is where you realize that he could possibly leave you, 'cause he's bored with you and the initial 3-month novelty has worn off. So chicks go into extreme psycho mode because they get paranoid. PARANOIA is key here.
Some of the behaviors of Psycho Girl:
- she goes through the guy's wallet in search of other girls' numbers (okay I did this within the first week of being with Kraig, but he moved in right away and always left his wallet around, that's his tough luck for moving in with a chick he barely knew!)
- she suddenly has a fascination with the stupid car he drives...which is psycho if the chick is the type to really not give a crap about cars other than if they get her to work and the A/C functions in summer... (oh many a discussion with Tony over whether a Mustang is a decent car or white trash)
- she listens to his voicemails over and over and over and OVER and over and over and over again, because of course, she's got them saved I suppose in this day and age that would apply to text messages as well...texting wasn't prevalent last time I was single, but I'll just toss that in for benefits sake since some people just don't talk anymore, they text....
- she buys clothes based on whether he'll like her in it. And we're not talking "oh i need a cute outfit for our date"...we're talking looking at clothes she would NOT normallyw ear, colors, whatever, but knowing that it's something HE would like, she buys it knowing that if things don't work out, she'll never wear that top/skirt/outfit ever again. I eventually got rid of the stuff that i bought that i thought kraig would like...i had this one tank top with an anime print on it...the top was cute but it was GREEN, which made me look like i was going to die, but i wanted him SOOO badly to think that i was some hip anime chick wtf....
- She thinks about him on an obsession level. We're talking, keeping Friday/Sat/Sun free just in CASE he calls and says he's free. It's the stuff that Calvin Klein bottles and sells at the perfume counter at Macy's.don't get me started, I could have started a frickin' CLOTHING line when i got to this point....
- She desperately wants to have "the talk" and probably ends up caving, and there's a good chance the guy behaves like a deer in headlights which only fuels the Psycho Chick behavior even more.
- basically Psycho Chick is pretty much a different person from the original girl the guy started dating in the first place
Now keep in mind these are generalizations and yadda yadda, i'm just saying that if you acknowledge the existence/theory of Crazy Fun Girl, then you have to acknowledge Psycho Chick as well. The key is to overcome this, to keep it bottled inside and let her out with your girlfriends, because once you can get past Psycho Chick mode then it's smoooooth sailing into Coupledom....
The song of the day, because it's been in my head, is All I Want Is Everything by Def Leppard (yes, again)
I don’t know how to leave you
And I don’t know how to stay
I’ve got things that I must tell you
That I don’t know how to say
Damn, i really want that effing bracelet.
