casualties, we have casualties...

yesterday was a very grimm day, i lost something very near and dear to me.

my brown levi's pants *excuse me while i fight back the tears*

everything was going fine, washed-fine, dryed-fine, iron front side-fine... then we get to the back side where the iron proceeded to melt my pants!!!! melt my pants!! omg. i loved those pants, they were only about a month old too. the poor little guy never saw it coming. and i looked so good in them too! why couldn't it be a pair of jeans, why did it have to be my brown pants that made it look like i have an ass to die for? why, why would the couture gods punish me so, what have i done to anger them? have i not belittled others for their inept fashion decisions, do i not make fun of others behind their backs (because i was raised right) on a constant unyeilding basis. i am questioning my entire faith right now.

i was totally planning on wearing them today too. i have so many cute outfits planned around those pants, they went w/ so many things. i better be able to find a replacement pair. and damn it they were hemmed to perfection. man i miss my pants.

in happier news, ka, vitatwin, sven, kq and i learned that the cast of veronica mars will be at comic-con the day we are going (yes, were are the rare breed of hot nerds) i am totally wearing my veronica is my bff shirt in hopes that veronica will indeed become my bff and we'll go shopping, solve mysteries and have an all around funtabulous time hanging around neptune.

also friday night was especially enjoyable as kq, vitatwin, jr and i went and ate at good stuff (it's good stuff!). on the way home dropping everyone off we enjoyed one of the most intellectual conversations i have had in years. the topic: pooping. who can you talk about poop w/ if not your friends? we went through all of our stories of those kids in school who wet or in the rare case craped themselves. for me it was mike sands, the place mrs. fries' kindergarten class where: the reading carpet during story time. we have found that that poor kid is remembered, first and last name forever as the kid who wet and or deficated themselves during school hours. and then daniel crapshispants (i can't remember his last name, though i know it rhymed w/ crapshispants... poor kid never hads a chance) when in the 5th grade he soiled himslef and sat it in all day till a brown spot appeared on his pants. yes, remember that kid, think of him or her fondly and be glad you weren't them.

and now that we have covered all the important things, clothes and poo i can bid you a good night.

short term memory loss, a plus!

so i may have no short term memory but at some point it becomes long term memory and i remember it.

there were a few things i forgot about disneyland:

there was a parade of homos down main street, many of whom were at a fabulous level of 10 when they needed to bring it down to a 2. especially the two dressed as royal court rope carriers at the end of the parade... their over zealous smiles and posing for no reason was funny, both cause it was true and sad.

i also wore my shirt designed by kq for my fav tv show veronica mars. it says veronica is my b.f.f. and has an illustrated version of veronica on it. it was quite funny to see people's reaction. most everyone i walked by read my shirt, i could see them read it and i knew what they were thinking, most of the time because they said it aloud: "who's veronica?". a few people got it, those would be the cool people. others would get all attitude-y about it. ummm, it's a shirt and by wearing it i wasn't in any way trying to ask you a question, so let it go. many people just looked at me, i know, you're jealous, but you can't be me, it just isn't going to happen. sorry, i know many of your dreams have been ruined as well... always one to rain on a parade, i am! (and in no way was i trying to refer to barbara streisand, just because i'm gay doesn't mean i like her, that woman is a supreme bitch (and crazy).

i also climbed through all of the tarzon tree house having been told i would find a half naked man at the end (who would pass up this opportunity?) only to find he wasn't there... if you're going to prominse a half naked man, you best be ready to provide. (a note to remember for all you loyal readers out there).

some good news, kiss has left for vacation, ding dong the bitch is gone, now only if it would stay gone. i have never wished ill will on anyone, but if he died, i don't think i'd care. i know that sounds awful of me, but if you knew him you'd agree.

another plus, dancing with the stars was on last night and my fav team has moved onto next week: kelly and alec. yay! i also called and voted so they could stick around next week, taking my sad level dangerously high.

and hit me baby one more time was on tonight, what a fun show, you really get to see why some of them didn't stick around.

also, i caught kept, and ritardo is gone! oops, did i ruin it for you. meh. you'll get over it.

oh and last night tlc had this great special "double crossed" where it combined both what not to wear and while you were out. can it get any better? tlc, i applaud thee.

and on thatnote i wish you a great night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite.

utah is wet w/ a sotw part 2

ok so where was i... it is difficult to remember after the beating i received from kq :)

that's right disneyland. ahh the happiest place on earth, unless you decide to go the the "enchanted" tiki room. 15 min of my life i will never get back. tiki-tiki.........tiki. and not so fun is waiting 20 minutes for a "cast member" (yes, that is what they are called) to find the price of something you'd like to buy. i found this cool print of the classic people mover poster (i loved that ride when i was little, there was never a line!) of course it just happened to be the last one and not have a price tag on it. so at the register the cast member calls "downstairs" (aka hell) to get the sku # so she can ring it up. after a few minutes they can't find it, so she goes to get the price from the art section. 15 minutes later she returns to tell me the price (which i knew and told her) that there were no more (yet again info i had already given) and that she was just going to ring it up w/ a "dump sku" (dump is right) but she would need her manager's approval (and guess who just dissappeared) so she runs off to find her manager and then she finally returns and i can finished being rung up. the least that could have been done is to give me free chocolate or offered me something for fee jokingly. but no, it had to be as painful as possible. oh and did i forget to mention that all of this was taking place at 10:30 at night and all we wanted to do was go home, but no i had to have my print didn't i. though the fireworks show in celebration of their 50th anniversary was quite spectacular. but then again i'm a sucker for a fairy flying around a giant tower... that sounds dirty.

and finally the sotw:

shake by elize a great donce song (i recommend the remix) which can be found on itunes, her second song automatic is even better, but not available, though i have it and i'm not sharing, sucks to be you!

as usual there is lots of stuff i wanted to talk about but forgot it. oh well, you can head on over to kq's blog 9lww and thank her for it, go ahead and let her know how disappointed you are that she deprived you of you daily vitamin_g, that'll teach her. but there's always next time.

so, i sign off tonight as, the evil queen... hee hee.

p.s. ml while at bj's (hey, do we have to go over this again, i'll wash your mind out w/ soap) i had a pizookie... how i have missed it so. damn it now i want one again. the gooey cookie (i prefer chocolate chip or white chocolate macadamia nut, i had a chocolate one that night) the delicious vanilla ice cream, ooh it's devilishly good.

utah is wet w/ a sotw part 1

so apprently, according to ka, i made a friend of hers in utah almost wet herself from laughing so hard! hello hi-ho-utah (that's your new name). i feel so special, i'm so glad that my blog can bring so much joy to the world. look at me i'm a humanitarian, i'm such a good person for writing this blog. this also adds to the pressure as i have to make sure that every entry is just as equally entertaining... so already you know this entry will blow.

so let's go over my weekend:

friday: left work late and went home and sat in front of the tv and watched what not to wear, avatar the last airbender... among other things i can't remember (damn equal). i love what not to wear and now there is a contest to "be stacey and clinton" or something like that. hey, i can make people feel completely insecure about themselves and then dress 'em up cute so they feel all pretty. i do it every morning to myelf already.

saturday: went into work for a while (ughh i know, but it is so much easier to get things done when no one else is there). the i went out w/ jr, ds, su, and cs. we went to bj's (hey, get your mind out of the gutter, they sell pizza, though can't say that i'd turn down what you were thinking, what tmi?) for dinner and enjoyed lots of food, way too much food, delicious none-the-less. then cs was tired so she went home and the rest of us went and saw mr and mrs smith, quite enjoyable. an all around good time. fun for the whole family, except for that two year old screaming through the previews.

we, meaning cs, jr and i made a stop at target before dinner as i needed to pick up some short socks for sunday (we'll get to it soon, just be patient). on the way out i heard someone yelling my name, well with so many adoring fans i didn't think much of it, but then it kept going, so i turned around and there was a girl i knew since i was in kindergarten, cr. i haven't seen her in a long time and she didn't even have the courtesy to tell me how amazingly fantastic i looked (i was chunky in high school, it's ok, i've accepted it and so can you). she then talked about how she is going to penn for grad school (she went to nyu for undergrad, though i have no idea what her major was). she also had a friend from nyu w/ her and by friend i do believe she ment her homo. she then preceeded to bring up a fact to this day do not remember: allegedly i was the first boy she kissed and if this alleged act did indeed happen then she was the first and last girl i kissed... so i suppose i have her to thank for "turning me".

sunday: again went into work in the morning. then proceeded to go to dizneeland w/ kq, ds and a co-worker visiting from hong kong. what can i say about the d-land... a whole lotta freaks and very little personal space. oh and at some points, d-land farted. it was an enjoyable day, what's more fun than making fun of people from out of state... sometimes it's just too easy. like i don't know why you would want to wear glitter camo, really are you hididng from the glitter police? the tooth fairy perhaps. girls, please stay away form the glitter camo, it's just a no.

now must leave cause kq is here to drag me away to pilates and i do not want to incur her wrath, it's an evil and oppressive one. i will write more later, kq is getting all kinds of cranky. see you soon! i'll also reveal this weeks sotw!! i know the suspense is killing me too. kq is soooo mad at me right now. hee hee.

dancing with myself on a side note

i don't care what anyone says i am in love with dancing with the stars, it's neat-o (sorry i am refraining from using certain words that kiss does, so bear w/ me as we travel back in time). there is drama, suspense, laughing, crying, and great clothes. plus it really makes you want to dance (note that i said want to, not actually physically engage in the act of). i love it and i am looking forward to hit me baby one more time tomorrow. i love tv.

people who don't watch tv are weird, no offense, you just are.

on a side note, the atm at my work jipped me 20 bucks, wtf. no, seriously wtf. what the hell are you supposed to do when that happens? well, what i did was to proceed to count the money in front of the camera and say to it as i shook my head "not 200 dollars" then i wrote a note and dropped it into the deposit box. b*itches better give me my money.

and then, after working out w/ka, kq and i went to mcdonald's to get fruit and yogurt parfaits, they're only 3 points! and what happens, they're out of the large and i have to settle for snack size. i was like what do i do w/ this. it is seriously the tiniest thing ever. not that it isn't cute as a button, but c'mon.

and on another side note, there are some super boring blogs out there. i decide to try the "next blog" button and was taken to a genital herpes blog, that's right, each day some fact is posted. how fun. i also came across several website advertisements built into blogs it's good to know spam is truly everywhere.

so thank you to those whose blogs i read for entertaining me.

obsessed fan / go blogger / kuwait farted / sotw

so today i received my first demand for a blog, which rather than offend, insult or scare me into never logging into my account again, i was flattered. to think that someone is eagerly waiting for my new posts, sitting at their computer hitting refresh in hopes that it has been updated. longing to read about my entertaining day or television watching experience. so to you dear blog watcher i promise that i will update more often! unless of course i'm tired and would rather sleep.

:)

i have to say this whole "blogging" thing has been a great experience. i feel like i have made so many new "friends." and while i may know them through a friend, i have never met them, but still enjoy reading about what is happening in their life and look forward to hearing their comments on mine. is that weird? i don't think so, but that's me, ever the optimist...

i still think i need to throw a blogger party and then we can actually meet, decide we like knowing each other online and continue are unique no human interaction friendship. no, i think we might actually have a good time. hmm, makes plans in head.

one of the things that makes it hard for me to sit down and type is realizing how slow i type and how many mistakes i make. i have this weird thing since people are reading this i don't want to look stupid w/ all kinds of spelling mistakes and typos. i think i just need to get over it, it's a blog not a novel, i've never been known for my writing skills... my writing 140 prof gave me c+, bitch, though my writing 340 teacher gave me an a- and it was 3 times as hard since it was for the usc business school, go me. and its not like me speak english proper in life that is real. i guess i just have high standards for myself, damn me for being an overachiever. why do i have to be so perfect?

however, lately i have done very little at work. a big part of that is i really need to take a couple of days off and recover from that huge couple of weeks, but now just isn't a good time (though will there ever be a good time?) luckily i haven't had to interact with kiss (my evil b'tard of a boss) too much lately. i did the other day and kiss gave me attitude so i gave it right back, i don't need crap from it (that's right it, kiss isn't human but evil incarnate sent to ruin any hope mankind has left), i am too good of an employee and too good at what i do for it to treat me like that. union! union! union! and now that i have channelled sally field, it's time to move onto the next thing.

so it turns out that ka and my blogger friends were at the same restaraunt as i and my friend jr on friday night, rcc. though they were there hours after i was. it was okay, it was an interesting night, as is the usaul case w/ jr and i. the food was ok, jr ordered popcorn chicken and i was informed later that it looked the same going in as it did coming out, what too much info? oh a little poop talk is nothing between friends. i decided that it is good in a drunken state and will need to try that in the future. plus, i was trying to stick to my weight watcher's points. so we chatted and ate, well picked at our food. i was i formed about how jr thought the lyrics bring me a higher love were bring me a puddle of mud, which i almost wet myself at, you had to be there i suppose. and on our way out jr wanted a smoke (a terrible habit i do not condone, stop using those death sticks!) before we got back into her car, and as we are standing their talking some guy comes out farts and walks back in. he made eye contact w/ us but was not deterred in releasing his gas upon us, in the eternal words of jodie sweetin (stephanie from full house, who, btw, i went to school with, she wasn't very nice), how rude. that is what a bathroom is for, c'mon it was just uneccessary, though it was an entertaining topic of conversation for jr and i. ah it's always an adventure w/ her. this story makes me think of kathy griffin (who i love!) and her: who farted? oh, kuwait did. allegedly.

veronica mars is also back on, yay! so be sure to watch the greatest show to ever air on tv. you'll hear me talking (though really reading my typed words) about it a lot and i cannot wait until it comes out on dvd (yet another party to plan, ooh maybe we can dress up as the characters and reinact our favorite scenes! i'm geek-gasiming just thinking about it). tuesday nights at 9pm on upn (i know, but trust me) for the west coast, otherwise, check your local listings for times and channel.

and now we come to that special time, the announcement of the sotw. and this week is a doozy. w/ over one thousand votes (on the last night of voting) from me and my family alone, comes american idol 2005 carrie underwood and her song inside your heaven. maybe it's the fact that i secretly long to be an american idol myself (though, i am already a blog idol and work idol and all around amazingly perfect human being idol) she does have a beautiful voice, and although i've never been a fan of country i may just have to buy her full album, due in fall 2005. and all of the sudden i have turned into my mother who has become a big country fan (and i have no idea where it came from). you can download her song from itunes, or purchase it from wherever music is sold (could o be more of an advertisement tonight, shallow capitalism, i love thee)

i hope you enjoyed tonight's blog! y'all come back now, y'here. (please ignore all spelling and grammatical errors as i am too lazy to go back and check, this blog entry is out of control long)

oops! i don't have a title

yes, i know i missed a day, i'd like to take a moment to apologize to all of my fans eagerly waiting for the newest post. :P

so, i finished cleaning my cube yesterday and i rearranged some things and i love the the new layout. i totally thought of ml's post about re-arranging her room and not being able to sleep because she liked it so much because i got nothing done today other than admiring how beautiful my new layout is.

it's the sad things in life that bring me joy.

during the day i think of things i want to talk about in my blog, however thanks to the effects of equal (the blue packet sweetner) i have lost my short term memory (though i continue to love and use equal, however splenda is quite delicious as well, i enjoy my drinks w/ chemicals!). i need to start writing down my amazingly interesting topics.

today, i did go to lunch with ka, kq and sw (who moved from our group a while ago, but ka moved into her group so we've come back to all be in the same circle of cool people again). it was great to see her and she'll be joining kq and i in our pilates class. yay!

ooo i remembered my topic! *claps hands in excitement*

so last night one of the reasons i didn't make a blog entry was tv (ok so it was really the only reason) i found two new shows i love. one happens to be on tonight (i had caught the repeat of it on bravo last night), hit me baby one more time. what a great idea! singers/groups of the 80s come back and sing their biggest hit and then a hit from today. it's fabulous because it is great to see those bands again and you can see who's doing good and who's not! like tiffany (i think we're alone now), she's doing great and has an awesome voice. cece penniston (finally) looks younger now than she did back then. and then there was flock of seagulls (i ran) not looking so hot (or sounding that hot for that matter) but me, i'm one who enjoys trainwercks (i.e. love, love, LOVE britney's chaotic!) there was also another band i can't remember the name, but they sang working for the weekend (found out it was loverboy). and arrested development was on as well. now when their song came out i was fairly young, i remember having the cd and listening to it over and over again. now, i don't really know why i liked it. i mean it was fine, but i just couldn't get into it again. tonight's episode has vanilla ice! i had his cd, knew every song and totally had a crush on him, though at the time i didn't really know that, all i know is i liked it when he didn't wear a shirt under his giant puffy jacket *fans self*. he's not quite as dreamy now though. whattya going to do... makes plan to build a time machine and travel back and get "hot" vanilla ice to fall in love with me, but make sure not to run into myself as i wouldn't want the time space continuum (sp?) to implode).

the second show is called dancing with stars (or dancing w/ the stars) either way it's so good. i don't care if i am the only person watching, i love it! i was so happy when trista (from the bachelorette) was dropped (each week a team of a celeb, well sorta celeb, and a pro dancer are let go if they have the lowest points based on a combo of the judges points and votes from the home audience). i hate her, she is so annoying, bye biyotch. i don't know why i am so enthralled with it. it could be the riduclous, but amazingly designed outfits, the cool dance shoes, the beauty of the dancing or the hope that one of the stars will screw up and knock/drop/trip their partner and listen to the live audience gasps of horror! one can dream.

and since i only have a 1/2 hour before hit me baby one more times comes on i need to have some food! go and watch it for yourself, it's great!

summer clean

yesterday and today i spent most of the day cleaning my cubicle at work, man i have accumulated a lot of crap over the past year and a half. so it is time to purge. my cube currently looks as though it exploded, but i hope to have my new sparkly clean cube finished tomorrow.

it feels nice to be rid of so much old stuff.

and in other news i'm not having to work round the clock. this week will be my breather week as more work will be here soon, but at least i have a bit of a break to prepare myself.

and all of the hard work makes it all worth it when you see the finished product.

and to continue the theme of blank of the week i have a topic of the week:

why did lindsay lohan have to go and become a cracked out crazy? you're not britney hun, go back to the good girl we fell in love with, and for god's sake eat something, you're looking older than joan rivers.

and ka i totally thought of you when you're fav episode of will & grace was on last night, the one where jack is dating a guy who works at a coffee place and he is addicted to caffeine and talks super fast, great scene!

please cry for me argentina and sotw

ok, so i haven't posted in a couple days and i'd like to keep this daily, but i got home around 11pm most nights from work last week , midnight on the others and i had to work saturday and sunday. i wasn't really in the mood to write about my day of running around "putting out fires." jeez, all i needed was a headset. it was such hard work, please take a moment to feel sorry for me....

um, i deserve longer than that! pity me!

and as not to bore you w/ my week i'll move into this weeks sotw:

wake me up by girls aloud.

oh how i loves me girls, electropop is so much fun and this song is one of my fav's off the album "what will the neighbors say"

they are a uk band so we don't get much of their music in the states and itunes doesn't have their albums, which i find odd. they were the winners of the uk version of popstars, but unlike eden's crush (it's sad i remember that, but you know i own the cd) they had staying power and songs that are actually good. rumors are they are coming to the us soon... and if you're lukcy jr, kq and ka i'll drag you along to the concerts! woo hoo!

plus they love my peeps! how can i not love them back!

they are my new spice girls, though i will always love the spice and there is talk of a best hits album with new tracks and a reunion and a reunion tour... give me a moment i practically wet myself from the excitement.

you can check them out here at there official site as well as listen to their songs and watch their videos, enjoy!

sotw

this'll be a short post, but i have decided that every week i am going to recommend a song (or cd if the mood strikes me) and it will be known as the "song of the week" (i know how did i come up w/ such a unique and creative title) or sotw. who knows maybe people will like the songs i'm listening to too!

so the first sotw is: (drum roll please)

apart by elkland. it is pure fun, totally 80s sounding and the singers voice is heavenly to listen to. the full cd ("golden") is really good as well. this is one of those chance purchases at a listening station that really turns out good, which is usually never the case.

you can check them out at their website here:

elkland.net

and you can listen to the apart single in the music section. if you have itunes, i suggest you listen to the clips, you'll want the cd in no time!
