Check out the other site

Hey all, so I'm going to be starting up another blog site for the single people out there. I've been single for what seems like an eternity so I have all kinds of stories & suggestions for those of you who are attempting to make your way through the single world again, or for the first time. I've tried all kinds of dating options & will be happy to share in my trials & tribulations to help make your lives easier! Once I have more info I'll post it here so you can all check it out.

Yay for my gays!!

How exciting that the California Supreme Court ruled in favor of gay marriage today. I know all kinds of people all over the place are outraged (stupid) but myself & many many others certainly support this ruling & I can only hope that the rest of the country follows suit as well. This has been such a long time coming & I know my grandpa is probably rolling over in his grave hearing about this, but I am so thrilled that finally some people out there who actually want to say "I do" will now have the chance. Now, this just leads me to ask...are Brad & Angelina going to follow through on their promise? They did say that they wouldn't get married until gay marriage was made legal, I'm sure they will now stipulate that the whole country has to allow it before they say "I do", I guess we'll see what happens after they return to the country with their new offspring!!

If you want more info on the happenings regarding the ruling today see the link below!!

Awful Song

Obviously other people must like this song because I hear it a lot but what is with the "No Handle Bars" song by the Flobots? First of all it sounds just like Weezer (whom I prefer not to listen to) I thought it was Weezer, but second of all it's stupid, totally stupid. I looked them up online today to see what they are all about & they are a big band & they described themselves as "having a sound that explores and expands the frontiers of live hip-hop" ok, what about that song is hip hop may I ask you? I haven't listened to any other music of theirs but my guess is I never will, that song makes it hard for me to give them another chance. I will however recommend Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl", if you haven't heard it check it out, it's pretty rockin & very catchy!! I often find myself singing it when I'm cleaning at home so I hope I'm not roaming around at work or in public singing out loud "I kissed a girl and I liked it", I'd never get a date...well, not the kind I'm looking for :)

Stupid Girl

How dumb is Heidi I ask you? Who in the hell would give up a job opportunity of a freaking lifetime to be with an unemployed loser? Hmm, running a Vegas club or supporting my jealous, loser, broke ass boyfriend? I'm sorry but if I was at a work meeting & my "boyfriend" showed up the way Spencer did he would have been escorted out by security, no questions, no explanations, and I would never speak to him again. Now his dumb ass sister, she has some real nerve saying that she doesn't want to be an accomplice yet she got in the car, rode all the way to Vegas, called to find out where Heidi was and then asked to be left out of it. I would never speak to either one of them every again after making me look like an absolute fool in front of the owner of my company. I also felt bad for Brent because now this makes him look stupid to his boss & that's not cool either. Me & a coworker were discussing how awesome it would be if when Heidi showed up at work the next day Elodie was sitting at her desk in her office & fired her!! We all knew that Speidi still existed after seeing the hideous video she created for her hideous song but for it to go down like that, she's just an idiot & really needs to grow up. I would have killed for an opportunity like that at her age, shit, I'd kill for it now...making major cash & running a top nightclub in Vegas, that's a dream.

Now, I hate Lo, she's evil & has no good intentions at all, she lies & acts like all of the issues are Audrina's fault, claims that she's been trying to befriend Audrina since they moved in & she's not receptive to it...that is so not true! Before they even moved in to the house when Lauren said she was going to ask Audrina to live with them Lo looked like she wasn't keen on that one bit. She's acting very Jr. High, almost like "she's my friend not yours" and Lauren is going right along with it & doesn't even realize it. I mean sure it's hard not to go back to those you have known for so long, but in the same respect she had been absent for so long & missed out on a lot of Lauren's life since she moved to LA. She really has no right to expect Lauren to just dump her new friends. When I watch this show it makes me thankful that I'm older now & much wiser than I was when I was 22 because I'm sure I acted the same way...dated guys that were bad for me, got screwed over by my friends, acted like I was above everyone...but wait, I lived in reality, making like $7 an hour, going to college & living with my parents!!!

Oh oh oh oh oh...Oh oh oh oh

TV since the strike

Hey all, so I assume that you have returned to watching your favorite TV shows since the strike ended. I was very excited to get the Office , Grey's, Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, HIMYM, and 2 & a Half Men back. In the last few weeks of watching the above mentioned shows it has occurred to me that some of them I really didn't miss & now that I'm watching them I don't even know if I like them anymore. So you really can't lose with the Office but I have to say that these newer episodes really haven't been that great, I'm wondering if some of the writers just never came back because you only get 1 or 2 LOL moments instead of the constant laughter that was normally coaxed out of me. As for Grey's, I've been saying since the beginning of the season that I have no idea why I'm even still watching it & to be perfectly honest, I think I would like it if Grey left the show. Her & McDreamy's constant back & forth is so annoying, I can't stand it & then I hear that they are supposed to get back together for good at the end of this season, why? So they can break up next season, how stupid! I don't think she's attractive at all and she always sounds like her nose is stuffed & he's so cute...it's just a bad match & I really do think that after this season I may just write it off & I really don't think I'm the only one. Now DH is the same as it always has been, unreal, hokey, lame, and I still love it for the unrealness of the whole thing. B&S is still good, I'm thrilled that Justin & his former sister will probably hook up because even though they were siblings for a while I wanted them to (does that make me sick or just psychic?) so I can't wait to see what unfolds there! My Monday sitcoms are still making me laugh so I currently have no complaints about those but I'm wondering how much longer Men will run since the boy isn't cute anymore, he's a kid, a teenager I think & well, the crap he says just isn't that funny anymore. I think if they got him off the show it could take a totally different funnier direction with the brothers out and about trolling for ladies. Well, those are my thoughts on TV since the strike, and hopefully the finale's of all of these shows will be good enough to bring me back next season.

Fashions and Fads that are just Fugs

So through my existence I have partaken in many terrible fashion choices and have also been lucky enough to steer clear of many of them as well. Let’s take it back to say 7th grade (jr. high/middle school), because this is where I could no longer get away with just being me, and I’m sure this is the same for others as well. Entering jr. high means suddenly going to school with kids you’ve never met before who came from different elementary schools & neighborhoods. It is at this point that you suddenly realize that you need all new clothes because everyone else is wearing (fill in the blank) and you didn’t even know it existed! So, I can recall pleading with my mother with constant “everyone has it” to get all these “cool” clothes/shoes/accessories. My first victory was my Esprit book bag, all the girls had them & they were super pricey, for book bags. This was a fairly decent fad but it only led to some of the worst apparel choices I ever made. After this I did the diaper pants, hammer pants, used jeans, super oversized shirts, overalls with the one strap hanging off, body suits with huge jeans, pegged pants, stirrup pants with the long sweater, leggings, fedoras, jean jacket decked out with AuCoton pins, patent leather shoes with a thick sole & big bows, stacked socks, tennis shoes with no laces, penny loafers, the list honestly goes on and on. Well, once jr. high was over we moved on to high school & things only got worse. From 9th grade to 12th grade I went from a total prep to a grungy hippie chick & I hit every fashion faux pas rung on the way down. I was honestly most comfy in my hippie stage because I wore flannels & baggy jeans/cords, I didn’t wash my hair, I sported converse tennis shoes daily & my look took no effort at all other than some dark lipstick & black lip liner (true story). After high school I got fat but started to get kind of back to my preppy ways & now I’d say I’m trendy-ish/classic, fashionable in my own right, because labels are no longer important to me, sales are! So now that I dress in my own style I still keep up on trends & generally avoid most of them, but there are some that I severely question & when I see people wearing them I just don’t get it. Why do women wear a dress & then wear jeans underneath it? Why are leggings back? Why do people wear Uggs…in the summer? Why do people who don’t work in the medical profession wear crocs? Why do girls pull their thong straps out above their pants? Why do women wear sweat pants in public that have words across the ass? Why does anyone wear those stove pipe jeans with the giant legs? When I was recently in Vegas I noticed this new dress trend & it’s only asking for the wrong people to be wearing it, these dresses are skin tight around the ass/hip area & barely cover the booty but then the top is all baggy & bubbled out like & they are generally solid colored & bright yellow or hot pink & hideous! To me, this is the type of dress that I would wear with jeans because it’s barely longer than a shirt but it seems when ladies wear pants with a dress, the dress is already knee length or longer so I ask again, what is the effing point? In conclusion I say that you should totally find your identity, but you should also look your best, not your worst just for the sake of fads. A dress is a dress & should be worn alone, pants are pants & should be worn with tops, if you are fat you shouldn’t wear anything skin tight. Summer is right around the corner so lets try to get ourselves looking our best, not our worst.

Juno what I think?

I think the movie Juno was fantastic & most everyone I know would also agree. I saw it in the theater when it was out & fell in love with it immediately. It recently came out on DVD so I ordered a copy and after work yesterday I rushed home to watch it. Actually I was so excited to watch it I almost left work an hour early but didn’t after I realized that I shouldn’t waste my personal time although, that is totally something personal but whatev. So, I get home, I cook up a tasty, somewhat healthy dinner of chicken sandwich, soup, salad, and cheese and I eat that while watching 90210 and then I quickly do the dishes, jump in my pj’s, arrange the remotes & chaise so that I don’t have to move and I begin the movie. I’m chilling there watching the opening credits and then about 10 minutes into the movie I realize that I’m smiling & have been since the movie started. I think it’s pretty sad that something as simple as a movie about a 16 year old getting knocked up is the highlight of my day…shit, week! After watching the whole movie and noticing things I missed the first time, and then watching most of the bonus features it occurred to me that I really did love this movie, even more than I thought & I honestly could have started it right over from the beginning and watched it again. Now, my friend Candice was the first to see this & told me that she totally thought of me when she saw it (which I found odd since I’m neither 16 nor pregnant) and when I saw it the first time I totally got what she meant. After watching it the 2^nd time it was even more clear as to why she thought of me, or at least I think it was. The main character Juno is very detached from the baby & I hate kids, she’s witty & funny as am I, she sees the brighter side of things as do I, she uses words that only her awesome friends understand as do I, and she’s cute! So, for those of you who haven’t seen it I suggest you do & for those of you who did see it, if you didn’t like it you just aint right & if you loved it as much as I did then pick up a copy on DVD & enjoy the movie again and again. I see this movie being the new Swingers or Clerks or Dirty Dancing of its time, an instant classic if you will.

First things first

Hey hey everyone so I finally got a freaking blog! People have always told me that I should write a column or something so here I go. I really have no plans for the blog as of yet but as most of you already know I'll talk about current entertainment events, people in my life, celebs, television, movies, books...all the basics and I'm sure once in a while I may just discuss current events. So I'll just jump right in.

As I sit here in my apartment watching Who's Wedding is it Anyway I hear the sounds of what I assume my summer will bring. Some of these sounds are pleasant and some not so much. I got home about 4 hours ago & so far I heard a crap load of birds chirping in the tree right outside my window and that wasn't so bad, then I heard screaming children as people arrived home from work and that was awful. After the screaming kids I heard some ducks fly over and that was kind of nice. Just now I listened to the rumbling of a crotch rocket (1 of 4) as he revved it up and let it idle and repeated numerous times before peeling out of the lot. When you live in an apartment is it really necessary or polite for that matter to make that much noise after dark? Am I just getting too old in my young age? I wonder if this "pain in other people's enjoyment" just comes along with my achy knees & allergies or if it will pass, ah who knows & honestly, who really cares? I'm sure you don't, so get back to surfing for porn or whatever you were doing & thanks for stopping by!
