bedrest

a world where women enjoyed male strippers would be truly disturbing.

i'm laying in bed. in my worn out purple fuzzies.
i've been listening to modest and almost homely music all night.
it fits my mood.
homely defined as unassuming, not unattractive.

facebook chat is majorly flawed. it slows down the computer system to the point where it seems as though my keyboard is having a seizure.

i'm tired. i just wanted to jot a little something so you know i haven't forgotten about my part in our blog.
the videos were both great.

nightnight

haha! so true!

palatial.

LOLZ

i just laughed so hard grape almost came out of my nose

sex fashion rythm

I KNOW WHAT I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS

a robe! my robe right now is baby blue and old and i look like a tattered rag doll in it.
A++ details include a hood, pocket, drawstring, and, most importantly, it must must must be soft. the one i have now is 100% polyester and feels like i'm wearing a stuffed animal. oh and i also like that the one that i have now isn't long, that way i don't get tangled in it when i lay in bed. and the hood is great cause i put it on after a shower when my hair is wet and it keeps everything in place and dry, or serves as a surround soft pillow. haha. and pocket is good cause i occasionally put my phone in the pocket when i'm walking around. phone and or chapstick.
Bad features would be hard things like buttons, cause those would hurt when i fall asleep in my robe.

michele got me the one i have now from ae one sale for like $9. and it has been heaven.

hahaha.

okay. there's an idea!
if anything pops in your head, put your wish list on our page.
yeessssum

holy crap.

this weekend

beautiful noise. clashing clanging calling bells.

wetsel's long lost cousin.

cable guy.

Watched this movie again last night. Forgot how much I love it. This is one of my favorite parts. The nightmare scene!

westward.

long weekend.

Sitting on the couch watching reality television on MTV and contemplating smoking a cigarette. Still recovering from last night. We had my friend Thomas' going away party at Jameson's. Closed down the bar and got there at 8. I was there until 8 this morning. I ended up going home after that but a lot of the people went back over to another house party. No thanks.

Waiting for Sam to get off work. She's craving Taco Bell right now so once she calls me I can actually go pick her up and take her to get her food. Think I'm going to go to bed right after that so I can get up at a decent hour for work tomorrow.

Ninja Assassin comes out on Thanksgiving. We are having dinner here. Sam's parents are coming down from Portland and I guess are going to cook the whole dinner so that's pretty rad.

I wanna go to this store: http://www.superherosupplies.com You should try to find it if you are in NYC again anytime soon.




Oh, and I saw New Moon the other day. How can you be on Team Jacob? Granted he gained 30 pounds of muscle but he's such a child. Edward for the win. Duh.

i like freckles.

random and quick.

These cards are great. Check em out: Bald Guy Greetings




My new love. For the time being.



Little Red Riding Hood






This really reminds me of you. Ha!



Still got to get this shirt:

great day ending poorly

so i ordered a pizza for the house, they took all my info, ect, and then NEVER showed up. I just got off the phone with them and was like... what's the problem... and winter WINTER. I'm really upset about it.

damn pizza people.

you're not a loser.

I just slept all day and now I'm going back to work. I'll post some stuff soon!

where did you go?

Okay, so I'm starting to feel like a loser posting so much and not getting any posts back... so continue with the dorkiness, I thought I'd gush a little about New Moon and how fantabulous it was. FAN TAB U LOUS .
I have been team edward since the start, but after this movie, i'm all for jacob.



uhhhh dream boat

on the agenda.

ok. making a plan.
going to see New Moon today with my roommate Clara.
We're catching the 2 @ 2:17 to church st.
then connecting to the 6 @ 2:45
and that'll get us to a nicer theater then the bijou knock-off downtown.

winter. all this work to see a quality new moon.
i. can't. wait.

oh and i need to shower BADLY.
dressed up last night crazy, teased my hair and then crimped sections of it.
haha... oh yes.

purgatory

hungover

why heellloooo devendra banhart

So I didn't get tickets to the midnight premiere of New Moon last night, which is pretty bummer... BUT i did go to an awesome show. And honestly, I'm so glad I didn't find tickets to the movie and did this instead.


my new obsession.
Sorry Joseph Gordon-Levitt, there's a new man in town.

No wait, who am I kidding, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is way cooler. Itakeitback, Itakeitback.

He did this super weird tongue thing the whole time he was singing. Like he was a lizard of some sort and there was a persistent bug flying around his face.

it was a good night topped off with a late-night stop at burger king. yes.

metamucil?

why so sad, sad muffin ?

conference call translates to doodle time.

speaking of disney...

those cats have nelson eyes. crazy eyes.
I ran out of cat food a few days ago, and up until today, nelson was living on fine tuna and brown rice. damn lucky cat. back to the meow meow mix.

i loved the videos. i watched them as i was falling asleep last night. have to admit, was paranoid i'd be having nightmares. oh and i did, but it was about work, not people in trash bags or clowns.

and speaking of disney, here is my favorite disney clip ever. really the best. which is closely followed by the kiss the girl scene from the little mermaid. but Belle is better, hands down.



i wish i lived in a disney princess fairytale.
pretty please?

i'mmmmmelting

another 12 hour work day.
i need a cup of hot cocoa with baileys and a neck rub. stat.

die hard.

catz!

THESE ARE NOT JOANNA EGGS!

am i dreaming?

Strongly suggest doing full screen for these three. The first two are a little creepy and third one is amazing.

let me share my current obsessions

Now you have no reason not to watch this

next time i call you we will talk about how fantastic this movie is and why we feel the intense urge to watch it at least once a day every day.

this is where i've been picking up my fashion cues from lately. cutting edge.




i want to see them live so bad it hurts.

i'm going to start making little videos.

i just realized i have scribbles all over my hand from last night

well shoot. i'm done exploring all the fun links you posted. and now i'm just bored and might actually be able to take a nap.

winter. i need more fun links *pouty face*


i think i might be hungry. my stomach sounds like an elephant with something important he has to say.

my achey breaky heart

can you and i do an a cappella remix on this song.
pretty please?

shoe update

these heels were meant to be. I mean, their named after me. literally.



Jeffrey Campbell Marly Platform

"It's an ankle bootie! No, it's a strappy pump! It's...it's the cage pump! And all indecisiveness aside, the Jeffrey Campbell Marly is the new hot find. No matter how you look at it, this fabulous shoe has a lovely textured leather upper that covers your foot (minus an open toe) with thin horizontal straps, up the vamp, and around the ankle for a peek-a-boo caged look. A back-of-the-ankle zipper helps you in and out quickly, and a distressed leather-covered platform and cylindrical heel amps up your style and height! Leather upper. Leather outsole. 4" covered heel, 1" covered platform."

...

and then the notorious boots i've been walking all over this city in. literally the entire city.

sometimes

i wish i were a dictionary. how useful would i be.

i won't be offended if you just skip over this long post.

uhmmmmmm weeeeeeennnnnteeeeer

i am so f'ing awake and bored and everything in life is ganging up on me right now. I shake my fist at you life *clenched angry fist shaking*

i walked home from north street (downtown at the bottom of the hill) to my home (at the top of the giant hill, past campus) in my new boots. you thought my feet were unhappy yesterday? oh ahahaha... luckily it was a beautiful morning and i had my ipod with me.

oh and did i mention i LOST my burberry scarf? only you will understand my sadness. i think, i think i know who's house i left it at. an email will be sent shortly requesting the return of my beloved scarf. i didn't expect, when i first received the lovely scarf, that it would become an outfit staple. BUT IT HAS.

oh and did i mention i can't find my phone charger and finding the charger would involve picking all the clothing and purses and shoes and scarves up from my disaster room? i would rather take a nap, thank you. oh wait, i can't fall asleep. *clenched fist in air again*

i saw that you posted those supposed bottle opening methods... i'll have to see it to believe it... luckily you outwitted me and found some videos.
still skeptical... if you were here you would see my squinting eyes and pursed lips scowling at the youtube clips posted. i might buy a bottle of wine tonight just to test these methods. if it fails, oh, there will be another "I told you so" blog post waiting for you.

haha. okay. sheesh. i am really ranting and rambling about all these unimportant things when I could be posting interesting links and music and living a more productive life in general. i ought to be reading or drawing or, eh, cleaning...

OH and one more superfluous statement- why are there so many terrible songs in my itunes? when this happen? how many songs must i one star?!! this really is a tragedy. there is a reason i make play lists and never trust my itunes to shuffle freely. things as important as music must be given guidelines. bad music- flee!

Wine opening

besides that... i'm on my lunch break at work. and thinking that I need to post some stuff from NYC on here.
Unfortunately we only used Monique's camera all weekend, and she has all the files. I KNOW she is gonna delete pictures even though I told her repeatedly don't do it. GAH.
It was fun. I owe you a phone call to play catch up.
so uhm yes.
For now how about i just post some music I'm really diggin lately.
You should let me know if you know how to post the mp3 streaming directly to the blog. I, sir, do not!
