Done and done

After much thought and deliberation I have decided on a Halloween costume.


I'm dressing up as Midori from Guitar Hero III. I call her tiny backpack. If I'm losing while playing Melissa I just start talking about my tiny tiny backpack and she cracks up.

Wishing it wasn't Sunday

Sunday already? Where did the weekend go?

I went to Wonder Bar on Friday with Melissa and Darryl. I just wanted to have a good time and dance my butt off. Melissa has about 20 pictures of us in the cab I have no idea why we like taking cab pictures. Darryl kept telling the cab driver "you run a tight ship my friend" which had me cracking up.

Saturday was rainy and I watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I love that movie. I need to buy that DVD. It's a nice movie to curl up on the couch and watch on a rainy Saturday.

Today I went to eat lunch with Melissa at Panera. While we were eating our lunch this couple walks up to the table next us which is free but still has plates and cups from whoever was there before. Instead of just picking it up and throwing it out they flag an employee down to clean it off bitching about it the whole time. You would think these people who were so upset that someone left their plates on the table would walk the three feet to the trash and clean up their own mess. Nope they decide to leave it on the table. I wanted to say something so bad but I bit my tongue which I deserve a gold star for because that doesn't happen that often.

After lunch we went to see Burn After Reading. I always forget how brutal and sudden the deaths in Cohen brother's movies can be. It had some pretty funny moments, mostly with Brad Pitt. He needs to do more comedies. Does he ever age? I don't think he does.

So now I'm waiting for True Blood to come on. I didn't think I was going to like the show because the book that the show is based on, Dead Until Dark, annoyed me quite a bit. I think I threw the book because of the ridiculousness of it. When they went to a bar called "Fangtasia" I lost it. I finished it though and the tv series is much better.

Oh and last but not least my car is fixed! I missed having a car. It runs like brand new and seriously I've had everything done to this car so I should be (BETTER be) good for a while.

Back to work tomorrow. I'm hoping this crappy rain/muggy weather stops.

You can't text message breakup!

Looks like I’m back on the single scene again. Did you miss me boys?

I got dumped via text message. Granted he did ask to talk on the phone via text and I replied that if he was breaking up with me just tell me now.

I really have no filter on my mouth. I say what comes to mind even if I make an idiot out of myself. My boss walked by when I was reading the yes I am breaking up with you text and asked me what was wrong. I blurted out, “my boyfriend just dumped me by text message!”

Can I not say stupid stuff like that to my boss? I’m lucky that he’s a nice guy and felt bad for me, not horrified that I just threw that out there for the whole office to enjoy.

My friends and co-workers seem to be more upset about this than I am. Dumping someone by text is not a very popular way to break up with someone but really, would face to face be better? I’m glad he didn’t make plans to meet up with me only to tell me we’re done. Obviously the situation is different if it’s a long term relationship. Ending your marriage by text message a la Britney Spears is pretty low.

I wonder what people did before texting. Did they send letters to break up or perhaps a telegram?

Dear Virginia (stop) I believe our courtship has come to an end (stop) We weren’t that serious anyways (stop) Farewell (stop)

I end this post with a word from Kelly.

Buddy Holly mash up

Bang! Bang! I’m always near. You need a guardian.
I can’t run and I can’t kick, another big bang, what’s a matter babe?
You know I’m yours, are you feelin’ sick?
And I know you’re mine, What do we do?
Oh No! Your tongue is twisted, I know that you need help.
Your eyes are slit. I look just like Buddy Holly.
Are you feelin’ blue?
I don’t care ‘bout that .

*Original lyrics by Weezer, mash up by me.

How the New Kids get all the ladies

I am so glad that New Kids On the Block is back. Their new music videos are classics to be enjoyed for years to come. Their newest single is called, well, Single. There's synchronized dancing, a club full of sexy ladies (seriously there are really no guys in this club), all the New Kids dressed in dapper suits. You really can't ask for more.

The icing on the cake is the scene where a woman drops her lip gloss in the bathroom sink and Jon just happens to be in the bathroom to retrieve her lip gloss for her. Yea, that happens to me in clubs all the time, guys approaching me in the ladies room. Really the ladies room is a great place to pick up woman. You know they have to go in there eventually and you'll be the only guy in there. Why has this never been thought of before?

I'm still laughing. Really, I thought they couldn't top Summertime but I was wrong.

Wanderlust

I'm having a quarter life crisis at 24. Lately I've been feeling like I need a major change. I haven't been feeling very happy and I can't figure out why. I just want to pack up and move to a new city, I want to travel to Europe and have adventures. I don't want to be the townie who never leaves Boston.

I have this urge to move to NYC. I've never even been but I want to experience living there. I want to work at some dive bar where local bands play. I want to work for a music publication. I want to take pictures at live shows. I want to run into random celeberties. I want to meet new friends in interesting places. I want to invite people to crash at my tiny apartment.

I'm bored with my life. Someone shake it up.

I can see Russia from my house

I have the perfect Halloween costume. I'm going to be Sarah Palin in a helicopter and my friend Melissa can be a wolf that I hunt from the air.

I'll bring a nice batch of moose stew to the party just to make it really authentic.

Please don't let this woman be second in command!

I think this article expresses my feelings on Sarah Palin as McCain's VP choice pretty well.

As a woman McCain must think I'm very gullible. Vote for McCain because he has a woman on the ticket. Sarah Palin's lack of experience and political views are frightening. I'm not voting for people who want to diminish woman's rights and don't consider global warming a serious growing problem.Palin's view on sexual education is laughable to me.

My mother did not preach abstinence. My mother warned me about the consequences of sex and asked that if I did consider it to be safe. Guess what, I wasn't having sex at 17.

I hope people come to their senses in November and help save our country.

Will work (almost) anywhere!

Since I'm now in a bit of a financial pickle due to my car which I have now nicknamed Scrooge due to that fact that it takes all my money and laughs in my face. I have resorted to looking for a second job on craigslist. Desperate times always lead to craigslist. Well there are just so many lovely jobs out there I just can't decide, but I think I'll apply for this one:

NEW ENGLANDS HOTTEST GENTLEMENS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR EXPERIENCED BARTENDERS, WAITSTAFF & SHOOTER GIRLS. APPLY IN PERSON 151 NEWBURY ST.(RTE 1) PEABODY, MA THE GOLDEN BANANA. ONLY HOT GIRLS NEED APPLY.

Well thank God I won't be working with ugly girls. Now what to wear to the interview?

Wanted: Single, cute mechanic

Oh irony you have quite the sense of humor. Now that my car is paid off it's not drivable. I'm afraid to know how much it will cost to fix it. I've already put almost two grand into my car in the past six months. I have no idea where I'll get the money to fix it. I need to date a mechanic. That seems to be the most economical solution.

I took the T back from Brookline and forgot my umbrella so of course it starts pouring out. I made myself a delicious breakfast of eggs and tator tots to cheer me up.

Hello allergies

Taking benadryl makes youtube videos funnier. Someone take my keyboard away before I cause permanent damage.

Sometimes I think it would be fun to be a youtube celebrity. How else will I get my name on wikipedia? That is my goal in life.

Normal posting and thinking to resume after sleep.

My priorities

I should be doing important things like paying bills and doing laundry but instead I'm starting a blog. The internet is much more entertaining than dirty clothes and bills.
