Letter to the editor

Hey Sabina,
Wheres you comments on Tom & Katies debut of their daughter?


Listen...here's the thing. The kid in the photos is adorable. Great looking kid. BUT...my belief all along has been that Katie was never pregnant, and if she was, it sure as hell wasn't Tom's kid.

So...mystery baby is very cute. No way is that the child created by Tom and Katie though. I think the whole thing was one huge scientology scam.

Kenny's family is so poor that yesterday they had to put their cardboard box up for a second mortgage.

So last night I actually watched Fashion House . Not because it even looked interesting. No, I actually watched it because stupid Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, and the Insider wouldn't shut up about it for over a week.

The key is that it stars Bo Derek and Morgan Fairchild and they do some Dynasty-esque hair pulling and catfighting.

Ohhhh, that's an hour of my life I can never, never get back.

I'm more than fine with cheesy crappy chick shows. I dig 90210 and The OC, and heck I used to watch shows like Savannah (anyone remember that? Probably not). But this...this was just AWFUL.

First off, I'd like to think that shows like Desperate Housewives, while geared towards women, still have male writers. The dudes sound like...dudes. On last night's show, omg, CLEARLY chicks wrote the script. One hot straight guy says to the other straight guy "Are we still on for drinks tonight?"...

Uhhh...no. Guys don't talk like that. Guys don't go for "drinks" because "drinks" means cocktails and no self respecting straight guy is going to get cocktails with another straight guy. Plus, they went to this "hip" place...please! Guys drink BEER. And no young 20something somewhat-broke guy is going to go to some swank snotty lounge where beer is gonna be like $13 a pop. Unless they want to pick up hot chicks. But they work with MODELS...so why bother going to some snotty chick-ish lounge to pick up (and to pick up clearly older women...Bo Derek is 50) when you're surrounded by self absorbed women all day anyway?

Secondly, clearly it was written by women big time out of touch with reality. This bimbo model rolls out of bed and tells the somewhat broke guy how his art is "brilliant".

"Brilliant".

You find me a young 20-something airhead who says that about ART. You know what they say? NOT BRILLIANT. That's an uppity high class word used by arisocratic women when describing art, not some whore who rolled out of bed.

Thirdly, these chick writers were out of touch because in their attempt to portray said whore as a snob, she made a snotty remark to a rich housewife that she thought she was a makeup artist or hair person. Uhhh can you say Kevyn Aucoin, Charlie Green, or Ken Pave? 3 people who in their lifetime have/had made WAYYY more dough than a joe shmoe model ever could by doing hair and makeup.

PLUS, I would have been like "uh actually I'm so rich I don't have to work at ALL...sorry working girl"...no loaded rich wife is gonna take crap from a lowly model (unless you're a supermodel, which these girls clearly weren't, you're not getting paid tons of dough day in and day out...you get paid alot in chunks, but there are huge periods of time where there's no jobs coming in)....

Fourthly, have any of those women actually SEEN a fashion show? Geezus it looked straight out of a high school fashion show and i'm supposed to believe this is the world's top designer?

Fifthly, I get it, you got sponsorship from Maybelline. Could you have been SOMEWHAT more subtle so I didn't feel like I was watching a commercial for an hour?

Sixthly, yeah yeah so you need the dick husband to play a villain in the show. The guy who's cheating with his secretary. Unless you're some 1950's housewife, you're not gonna run to make breakfast when your dick husband who's been a dick for months says "where's my breakfast"...i'd say "shove it up your ass" 'cause what's he gonna do about it...he's the one who didn't get home every night for dinner.

Seventhly, speaking of said dick husband...he needs to grab his cell phone and to set the premise of what a volatile dick he is, we see a gun in his car.
Um let me get this straight...
I believe this show is supposed to take place in LA (which isn't a fashion capital at all but whatever)...
Dude needs to use his phone...and we keep our cell phones in the glove compartment?
And our glove compartment contains NOTHING but a gun and a cell phone? No paperwork, no nothing?
If you live in LA, well, California, you KNOW the CHP are like Nazis...for God's sakes I had 5 of them pull me over for an illegal u-turn. You're not storing a frickin' GUN in your glove compartment (at least, not in plain site, and NOT have any regular papers in there)...i get that it's a show, but credibility people...I shouldn't be watching a show thinking "wow that's retarded when the CHP wants your papers they'll see your gun. And why is your cell phone in the glove compartment?"...

Eightly, the alleged models weren't even remotely good looking. They were wannabe actresses. Wannabe actresses are uglier than models. Didn't they watch 8th & Ocean?

Ninethly, the cuthroat fashion house chick, played by Bo Derek (who is looking SMOKING HOT for a chick turning 50...she's my hero), had to choose between her financial guy ratting out that she's stealing from her son's trust fund, or sleep with him. Hmmm...hot guy...I owe him a few million...pay him back that night with money i don't have...or just take a boning from the hot guy. Yeah tough call. WTF. Okay well he wasn't hot for a tv actor but if it were real life he'd be hot. And sleeping with people you sorta hate makes for fantastic sex. So wtf. Like i believe that she's traumatized over that.

Tenthly...sigh, i'll probably watch the next episode.

Prick's gonna pay for lookin' at my sister!

This is effing AWESOME:

Rickshaw drive by

You're not using any of Fluffy's blood, or else I'll kick you in the nuts!

Weekend movie review wrap up

In theaters: The Illusionist
So I didn't know anything about this movie, and I can't stand Ed Norton, so I figured I'd probably not like it.

I was pleasantly surprised.

It's a different kind of movie...not going to win any Academy Awards but the style of photography is interesting and it's highly entertaining. I give it two thumbs up, but I would either rent it or see it as part of a matinee.

On DVD: Be Cool
Okay I'll be honest.
I didn't like the original (Get Shorty) and I never got through all of it.

The same can be said for this. I didn't see the whole thing, Uma Thurman bugs me, and every time I saw John Travolta I kept thinking that his scientology buddy Tom Cruise would pop out with his alien baby Suri.

On DVD: 40 Year Old Virgin
Okay I saw this in the theater a year ago, but Kraig hadn't seen it so we watched it this weekend...

DAMN that's such a great movie. You can't go wrong knowing that Steve C. really DID get his chest waxed in real life in that infamous scene.

In other news....

I finally got a new stove. My criteria was pretty basic: over $399 ('cause then you don't have to pay for a year and you get free delivery), black, and fit the dimensions. So we went on Saturday but I looked like ASS...no makeup, hair in a blog, black headband, grungy tshirt, cargo pants.

The dude was a total DICK. Do you hear me Sears people at Laguna Hills Mall?! The only guy you had in the stove section was a DICK!

So we left 'cause I was so pissed off...came back on Monday. I did my hair, makeup, wore heels, wore a strapless black dress. Mr. Dick was working, and I was like "eff that sh*t, i'm not letting him have the commission from MY effing money" so I pretty much interrupted the sale another guy was doing just to make sure I got ANYONE but Mr. Dick.

And this other dude was FANTASTIC. I'm not going to be so vain to say it was the dress, 'cause i think i look just as ugly either way, but all I know is that this OTHER dude was super nice and the way a frickin' sales guy should be.

In case anyone really cares, the new stove comes in on Sat. I'm a little nervous to see what's underneath my current stove. It's going to be effing DISGUSTING.

And finally...
So out of my To Do list for the holiday weekend...hmmm...well...this is what i accomplished
1. A TON of sleeping. A ton. Seriously. The house was hot as hell and it made me groggy.
2. A TON of laundry.
3. Okay no car shopping but I did go to Carsdirect.com and scoped otu prices and stuff.
4. Got the stove.
5. Checked on Cammy (Carrie's cat).
6. Cleaned the bathroom.

Yeah. I suck.

KAH TOE MAHHH TAYY!

Cal: How?
David: You have a rainbow bumpersticker on your car that says "I love it when *balls* are in my face".
Cal: That's *gay*?

Ahhhh that's probably the best part of that movie....

But I'll be damned if I see another chick on your arm!!

DANG I love the new Beyonce song!

So the VMAs last night blew goats. when will people learn that Jack Black is okay with a script, but just running wild he's awful? The only part I laughed at was where he went backstage and Justin Timberlake was doing construction.

Plus, wtf was J Lo wearing? And why did she not know that that big black guy wasnt' with the band (kudos to him for finding a way onstage to plug his own crap, way to go MTV security).

Performances:

Beyonce...fantastic!

Shakira...i hate her voice but the performance was great

Justin...the first half is lip-synced but the dancing is pretty interesting.

Pharrell, Luda, and the PCD...it actually kinda sucks

Crap, now I've got that awful Hips Don't Lie song in my head. WTF.

So I've decided that sleep isn't the way to go this weekend...dear LORD please give me the strength to do the following things:
1. return that effing stupid space saver bag to BBB (uhhh it's been months...do i have the receipt)
2. Clean out the spare bedroom. Seriously. Once and for all. And get rid of one bookcase on freecycle.
3. Buy a new stove.
4. Test drive some new cars (gotta drag Stefanie with me, she's the auto negotiation pro)
5. Get the paperwork together to FINALLY refinance the home loan...again....
6. Watch the Queer As Folk DVD i got from netflix (I never got through all the seasons after I moved! I need Marcella's cable plan!)
7. Get off my a$$ and mail Marlene's bday gift

HA we'll see on Tuesday how much I get accomplished.

Sorry for this boring blog post (not like any of the others are interesting), but I lead a boring life, what can I tell ya. Maybe I need some blog topics or something.

Seriously I loooooove that Beyonce song.

Give me the jew gold Kyle!

South Park link ....ahhhh if i were stuck on an island and all I had to watch was South Park, I'd be in heaven.


Blow your mind.

I've been soooo bummed over not getting that purse on Amazon...but today I logged in and low and behold...the purse in brown is available again! But then I had some pre-buyer's remorse, 'cause I think it's going to be WAYYY too big, but f*ck it...it's absolutely adorable and I"m getting old and a sign of age is the size of your purse so suck it. It's adorable.

This is the purse, I wish they had it in cream but I'll take what i can get:


(watch the link not work anymore)

In other news, I signed me and Stefanie up for the Flavor of Love reunion episode...I doubt we'll get in, but that might be the highlight of my life if we did.

I can't waaaiiiittt for the long weekend. Nothing major planned, unless crazy amounts of sleeping counts as something planned. Even better, I can't wait till we go to Arizona...I can't remember the last time Kraig and I actually were together for a whole week. Maybe xmas a few years ago? Our honeymoon? Who knows.

Of pink jelly beans and other random sports events

So celebrity scoop....

First off, the Emmys were boring of course (minus anything with jon stewart) but the intro (LINK HERE was effing AWESOME (the South Park part was the best!)....

In other news, here's the nekkid pics of Toastee from Flavor of Love:
Toastee...don't call this modeling

This is sad:
Kim Yun-jin has become the first actress from Asia to ever grace the front of the U.S.'s TV Guide weekly. In the issue that hits stands next Monday, the actress appears with her small-screen husband Daniel Dae Kim.

(She's the chick from Lost, in case you didn't know). What kind of hillbilly country is this? How has it been THIS LONG before an asian chick has been on the cover of TV Guide?!?! Wow maybe the black people can keep their seats on the bus now too.
In Emmy fashion news

Everyone looked fantastic, amazingly. Evangeline Lilly's dress was GORGEOUS, probably my favorite of them all. I was annoyed that the cameras kept panning to Jaime Pressly and Debra Messing. Heather Locklear looked FANTABULOUS during the Aaron Spelling thing.

The tribute to Dick Clark was sooo sad...i mean, it was like he was saying goodbye to the world. At one point he said how he had accomplished his dream, and everyone should be so blessed. I was almost in hysterics, it was so touching. It's like he aged overnight.

Seriously, the South Park part of the intro for the Emmys was some effing funny stuff...

I can't wait for Sept 21st...all the good tv shows are back on...all social activities are going to go down to ZERO.

And what's sad...i actually posed on Saturday looking like a GOOB here completely sober:

Sunday, August 27, 2006

Dang....

Ahhh the aftermath...involves crazy Swiffering of the kitchen floor, doing a count of leftover alcohol, and wondering if vacuuming is even worth it or if I should just start looking at laminate flooring NOW...

Much props to Kraig, who as always is a trooper with BBQing in the blazing heat, and for being totally cool whenever there's drama...indeed, i'm a lucky lucky girl!

On another note, Flavor of Love...COME ON...those producers HAD to have known she did porn...AND...we all know Flav does NOT have the web surfing skills to find Toastee's nekkid ass (or uhh...front from the sounds of it) on the net...

Season finale of 4400...the only highlight of it ending is knowing this means the debut of The OC, Lost (ohhhh I miss my Sawyer! hot damn that guy is the epitomy of manhood), Desperate Housewives, and The Office...I need to know the Jim and Pam saga!

In dental news
I went to the dentist before my bbq yesterday and the hygienist chick is soooo nice....she mentioned the day before how she was up in Brentwood at another office doing work...and when I asked if celebrities go there, well, my office visit must have tripled in time...

Ben Affleck and Casey were there the day before, apparently Ben is truly hot in real life. Nicholas Cage is also apparently good looking, and he used to go in with Patricia...now with celebs they have to make sure they don't schedule appointments at the same time, but once when he was dating some chick they accidentally scheduled the girlfriend at the same time as Patricia, so they had to keep them super far apart...

Jack Nicholson took awhile to get used to becuase he's weird...

Tom Cruise is apparently VERY nice, and she thinks that his manager is the one who's making act like a looney toon...I asked about his braces, she said he lasted all of 2 days before begging to have them take them off, and that the center of his teeth are WAY off line, so even his veneers are a bit off...

Most celebrities have veneers, so they don't have to floss as much...But Tracy Chapman and Nicole Kidman have their real teeth, and what's his face who plays Kramer has his real teeth except for 4, becuase he damaged them at some point....apparently he's super funny....

Penelope Cruz didn't even seem to be dating Tom when they came in back in the day, so the hygienist thinks that whole thing was just to boost her image, and that Penelope was the rudest of them all and made the pregnant receptionist cry...

AND...she said Matt Damon is the most down to earth and NICEST of them all, and thathe's the only one who doesn't go in with a publicist or manager.

Needless to say, I was in HEAVEN in that dentist chair...

And the sky was falling on the clouds were dropping and the rain forgot how to bring salvation

So I'm crazy in love with the acoustic version of Nelly Furtado's "All Good Things Come To An End" (with Chris Martin, who I can't stand, but hey...it works for this song)...


Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
Flames to dust
Lovers to friends
Why do all good things come to an end
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to end?
come to an end come to an
Why do all good things come to an end?


So it kind of depressed me yesterday, and then I realized, wtf...who's the idiot who came up with that theory? That all good things come to an end?


Why isn't there an expression that says "all crappy things seem to last frickin' forever"?


"All bad times must last long enough to make you want to put a bullet in your head"
So who's the jackass killjoy who made up the expression that all good things MUST come to an end, and thus created the cassandra-syndrome for all of us that made it come true?!


If you think about it, it's absolutely true. But WHY is that? If i think of all the wonderful moments in my life, time eventually kicked in, and it was over...I think of things going on with my friends, and the same applies to them....


And yet, look at crappy stuff...like effing paying bills. That's a REAL BAD TIME and that doesn't ever seem to end. Death is a crappy time, and that doesn't end! Cancer isn't fun, and that doesn't seem to end for people. Aging is horrible, horrible, and that definitely doesn't end (well, until you get to death, which is even worse...i think).


Anyway, that's my griping about how all good things come to an end...it's just flippin' depressing.



new topic


I got a leaked version of Justin Timberlake's album...the songs that are good are FANTASTIC, but the ones that aren't....blow. Plus he's got interludes, and i had interludes on CDs. Basically you can tell he wanted a CD you can pop in when you're trying to get a chick naked or something.


new topic


Season 3 of Laguna Beach is just AWFUL...why do I keep watching?

I'm a little nervous about tomorrow's bbq...people tend to flake, right?

Did I bitch yet about Amazon? I got a $50 GC for my birthday, and I found a cute purse I wanted. So i added it to my wishlist so that the next morning I could buy it (I was too tired that night to go through the checkout process), and the next morning it was soldo ut in the color i wanted! BITCH! It was SOOO cute.


new topic


Marmalade is on new medicine. Stay tuned.

Why hasn't anyone invented lettuce that tastes like doughnuts yet?! WTF!


last topic


I can't believe it's almost labor day...this year has FLOWN by like a mofo....I feel like I just celebrated New Year's....I miss buying back to school supplies...I miss having summer vacations....gasp, i think I might actually miss non-California fall, with the change of leaves and Indian Summer and wearing cute new coats...


Yep. All good things come to an end.

Ha ha haaa...

Tony, you deserve an award...

"I got my jimmy on your tonsils..."

Marmalade update

Marmalade update...

So this raging infection of hers seems to be resistant to alot of stuff, according to the lab folks, so last night the vet gave me a new medication to try.

I got home, and i was EXHAUSTED (i've been exhausted lately) and I was gonna take a quick nap, but i figured I should give her the medication before i passed out. So I did, and then fast forward to 11pm when I awoke to Kraig getting ready for bed (I told you i was tired!), and Marmalade was just so AGITATED...she kept pacing, jump up and down off teh bed, making these low growling noises...finally Kraig gets up and then says "sweetie, i don't like freaking you out about the cat, but I think something's wrong"...

I get up, and she's PANTING....low to the ground...growling...so we threw on some clothes and took her to the animal ER (fortunately, right by my house)....

Stayed there ALL frickin' night. They figured she was allergic to the medication, so they gave her a shot for it and we had to sit with her all night until it kicked in, which fortunately it did.

By the time i got home, i put my head on the pillow, and a split second later my alarm went off for work.

When i signed her in I also had to sign a thing saying that emergency medical expenses can start from $450 to $850...when I signed it, Kraig was like "so much for our kitchen cabinets"...turns out it was only (ONLY) $142....

ANyway, long story short, she seems to be better now and I've been trying to get a hold of the vet to see what the next course of action against this urinary infection is. My poor baby :(

Deep Thoughts...by jack handy

Some of these are classic no matter how long ago they aired this...

When you're riding in a time machine way far into the future, don't stick your elbow out the window, or it'll turn into a fossil.

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man.

Once while walking through the mall a guy came up to me and said "Hey, hows it going?". So I grabbed his arm and twisted it up behind his head and said "Now whose asking the questions?"


When I was in the 3rd grade, a bully in school started beating me up every day. At first I didn't say anything, but then I told dad. He got a real scared look on his face and asked if the bully had a big dad. I said I didn't know. But he still seemed scared. And just a few days later we moved to a new town. Dad told me that if anyone picked on me, not to fight back. Unless I knew the kid didn't have a dad or the dad was real small. Otherwise just curl up in a ball.

Seriously...SERIOUSLY...SNL used to be so good:

One thing vampire children are taught is, never run with a wooden stake.

ha ha haaaa:

I love to go to the schoolyard and watch the children jump and scream, but they don't know I'm using blanks.

When this girl at the art museum asked me whom I liked better, Monet or Manet, I said, "I like mayonnaise." She just stared at me, so I said it again, louder. Then she left. I guess she went to try to find some mayonnaise for me.

To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" you can say, "Sorry, got these sacks."

Is it bad that i'm in hysterics as I post these? Geezus they're not THAT funny, but I'm in a bizarre mood right now.

If you go parachuting, and your parachute doesn't open, and you friends are all watching you fall, I think a funny gag would be to pretend you were swimming.

The crows seemed to be calling his name, thought Caw.
I wish I had a Kryptonite cross, because then you could keep both Dracula AND Superman away.

If you define cowardice as running away at the first sign of danger, screaming and tripping and begging for mercy, then yes, Mr. Brave man, I guess I'm a coward.

ha haaaaaah haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa:

I think someone should have had the decency to tell me the luncheon was free. To make someone run out with potato salad in his hand, pretending he's throwing up, is not what I call hospitality.

If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think how stupid war is, and while they are thinking, you can throw a real grenade at them.

I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

Feline Health Watch

So in cat news...

Anyone who's anyone knows how much Marmalade means to me. That cat means the world to me, and honestly I probably value her life more than my family's life....

The past while she's been dealing with an infection, and right now it's become a "raging" bladder infection. They thought since she's borderline diabetes that the glucose was feeding the infection. Took some tests...nope, that's not it. They're still working on figuring out why the infection is resistant to all the different meds, but they also found that she's starting to show signs of kidney failure...

So all this time she was on low carb, high protein food (basically Kitty Atkins) 'cause of the diabetes...now she's on low protein food 'cause that jacks up your kidneys otherwise...then eventually she'll go on medication + soft food...and then i'll have to feed her liquids....

The vet estimated 2-3 years left.

Marmalade is roughly 10-11 years old...I kinda figured she'd survive to be 21 like Kraig's cat Gruffy...I mean, Marmalade is pretty spry for an older cat. She plays and runs around like a mofo...one minute she'll be hiding under the dining room table, next minute she's charging upstairs, to teh bedroom, and jumps on the bed to attack something.

Now if you've never met this cat, you're probably thinking that I"m making a big deal out of this. But anyone who's met her says she's unlike any other cat, how she's got such a personality to her (she's a ham!), and most importantly she's my little buddy...she follows me everywhere and when I come home from work, she yaks on and on about her day and how dare I leave her...Heck, even when I pet Stash she gives me SUCH a look of fierce jealousy (very much of a "oh no you DI - INT" snap of the fingers look).

Sigh, and best of all, I've trained her to give me little kisses.

My relationship with her is so abnormal, Kraig keeps saying that he's terrified the day she dies, 'cause I'm going to lose my mind.

Entertainment Tonight...err today

I've been in a massively crabby mood lately, so I've decided to spare the world by not bitching about it (what's there to write anyway? How it's a great injustice that I have to wake up each morning instead of getting paid to sleep?!)....

DVD Review: Legend of Zorro (i.e. Zorro the sequel)
Where to begin...
Bad acting....
Bad script...
Bad blue screen effect with the train scene at the end...
Bad little precocious little kid ("oh look at me, I'm cute, so I can get away by acting like a mischievious little devil")
But more importantly....
Who thought that using a flat iron to Antonio Banderas' hair would be a good idea?! I wanted to mess up his hair the entire movie.

In summary: 2 hours of my life that i can't ever, ever get back. Wasted.

TV Review: Laguna Beach Season 3
Sigh, I miss the good ol' days of Stephen, LC, and Kristin...but time to move forward right?
Wrong.
I really wanted to view this with an open mind. I mean, I'm 29...I can't expect these rich kids to have much to say other than "whatever". But it's hard to watch because there's just too many new characters, and not only do they all look the same, they're kind of ugly as well. They THINK they're hot...but they're not. Even the guys are kind of attractive if you quickly passed by them, but then when the camera gets close to their faces....eeek.

And I get that this is Celeb-Reality...not really scripted, not really reality...the first season seemed pretty genuine. This season it's pretty clear that someone is telling them "talk about this. Talk about that". Give me a frickin' break. We all know that teenagers don't wait until a few days after a minor event to say "hey, I invited that hot new guy to the party" or "so...are you going to the party tonight?"...

The key is that the "it" word for this generation is RANDOM. Or, more importantly, that's like, so random. Ummm, do you know what random means? Not everything in life is random. And, what kind of observation is that? "I ran into so and so today"
"Omg, that's like, so random"
Uh no kidding. If it wasn't planned, then it's a random assortment of people that you can meet in a given moment. That's not even an observation! it's not ANYTHING! It's you needing to say something to validate your friend's crappy story! You can't even say "OMG, that's like, so interesting" because it's NOT! So all you can say is..."that's so random"...

Listen, I needed something to fill the void left by Real World, but this isn't gonna cut it. Someone better give someone an STD real soon to make this a better show.

DVD Review: Saw II
Now let's start off by saying that Saw was a phenomenal movie. Don't tell me that you knew what the ending was. And it was creepy and gory and just effed up. Fantabulous.

The sequel...well you knew it couldn't be as good as the first. Which is fine. And it was pretty entertaining...and alotta gore...but the problem is, no one actually won any of the "games"...you know how in the first one a few people actually bit the bullet and did what they had to do in order to break free? No one in the sequal succeeded. So that was bit annoying.

Was it a good movie? ((shrug)) it was okay...kept the blood pulsing...but dont' expect it to be half as good as the first one. Only really worth watching 'cause maybe Saw 3 will be good.

In other news...
Drove to san diego Friday night. Not much to report on that other than that when I got there, i was pretty surprised with how much they've cleaned up downtown...it's no longer nasty. That being said, the stupid parking thing chewed up my $5...effing bastards.

In tv news
Dane Cook is SO NOT FUNNY. He reminds me of that UPS guy from Mad TV. And we know Jessica Simpson doesn't have an ounce of wit in her body, so this whole Teen Choice Awards thing lost my interest pretty fast. (Okay, I DVRed it so that I can see KFed's performance...which I heard wasn't that bad).

Seacrest out!

Of cacti and memories of porn bunko videos

So finally i booked the timeshare thing that we had to use up asap...

Last week in October...
I didn't want to fly anywhere (cost of airfare, blah), and there wasn't much available on short notice 'cause i should have booked this ages ago but it's hard to plan so far in advance...

Resort in AZ...

AND...since allegedly Kraig's spot in Tahoe is equivalent to any size elsewhere, i booked the Delux Penthouse Villa:


Uhhh let's see if that's what we actually get....

KAH TOE MAHHH TAY!
