Acid Trip or Movie

2008-10-22T19:37:00.000-07:00

Sometimes it's hard to say what is going on with my head. But I'm mostly sure that I'm in bizzaro world. I put in a movie and the first secne has a bunch of gansta's dancing like fake fight dancing and then they throw in a midget, a white bunny costum and a dude with a reverse fro hawk. Was there acid in my sandwich? And now they are having like a dude cheer leading cheer off. Seriosly how triped was the person writing the script! YICKES!

Best Movie of the Summer

2008-09-07T21:48:00.000-07:00

The bomb is supposed to go else where in this blog, however Blogger hates me becuase I don't take him seriously. I mean seriously have you seen this blog? http://talleycat.blogspot.com/

Okay, I know the summer is over. But since this movie premired in the summer, it's a summer movie.

DEATH RACE.

Reasons why it is the best movie so far this summer:

1. Jason Stratham. I'll let your eyes do my resoning for you. And yes, I know he sort of looks like Amy's brother.

2. The polt is much like Mario Kart. My love for this game is well documented.

Do your bests to get the guess boxes to blow other people up. Except in this movie, it"s real people and real guns. AWESOME!

So to sum up! Of the three movies I saw this summer (Dark Knight (SNOOZE FEST), Star Wars Cartoon and Death Race) Death Race is the most excellent movie.

Go for the GOLD!

Atascapoolza Olympics were tough to say the least. Team MollyHans looked good in the warm ups as did Team AmberJohn. Amber and John were the favorites coming into the competition as winners of the national bbq triathlon back in May.

First event was the egg toss. The teams went quite a few rounds until it was down to three, Team AmberJohn, Team MollyHans, and the team from Bellerose. The next toss was dropped by a nervous Molly and the egg broke. Two teams left and the eggs went flying. John caught his egg as the Belleroseians tripped over their own feet and scrambled there egg. In true soviet fashion, they protested citing unfair shell hardness, however the IOC deemed Team AmberJohn’s egg Triathlon acceptable.

The bean bag toss showed the US domination in back yard games. Amber and John went first as defending champions. Team MollyHans stepped it up and sunk two easy alley oops. AmberJohn answered back with some great field goals. Molly missed an easy free throw and it looked like team AmberJohn would have another title, when Hans unleashed his famous Slamma Jamma for the win.

You could cut the tension with a knife as the two US teams competed in the last event. The Bale Roll isn’t for couch potatoes, but with the finely tuned athleticism representing our great nation, it was going to be the event to watch.

Team MollyHans won the toss and decided to go last. AmberJohn had a bit of a bobble at first and then amazed the crowd with fine flipping over the bale until John let go of Ambers hands and she lost her balance and fell on her back. What a disappointing finish for Team AmberJohn.

But that did not guarantee Team MollyHans the win! After rolling the bale Hans lifted it high over his head while Molly showed how flexible she could be as she wowed the judges and the audience. Team MollyHans broke the Olympic record for most points scored in the bale roll.

And these are the events that led up to Molly wearing the gold metal.

The movie based on the book "Confessions of a Shopaholic" is coming out with Isla Fisher as Becky Bloomwood. HUGE MISTAKE!! Now as someone who finds this book more as a manual to good finances than a novel, this is totally crazy!! I loved Fisher in Hot Rod and think she's good looking, but as Becky Bloomwood??!!?? Please!! I just don't see this as a good fit! I hate to say it, but LiLo would have been a better choice, but then maybe she was in rehab during filming.

That aside, I really look forward to the movie, if not the costumes. The IMBD photo's are horrendous.

Being Single and Ready to Jingle, I do my fair share to stir the economy. We all know, you can't win if you don't play the game. COAS is a great book for all SRJ's to learn how to hide your purchases from others. I had a horrible relapse last month, when good friend Sarah came over to help me pick out a dress for our gala and she pointed out that I had 8 dresses NWT. Now, had I hid the tags, removed them or hid the dresses, it would have been fine. Being a Shopaholic is all about hiding your debt and purchases from those who think you have a problem.

My mother is coming down this weekend, which will be another cause to hide all the recent purchaces. I hope the three things I won on Ebay and the Esty apron I totally needed arive before then. Oh, also need a good place to hide host of Coach purses I got at lunch. Normal people wouldn't have this problem, but with a Nosey Parker mother like mine, it's a must!

Things to return: Shoes to Marshall's. Membership to Boingo. Jeans to Macys. Wait! You always need jeans. Keep those. Black plates to new 'rainbow' french store???? Yeah, I think they look like target plates. Package can be soooooooooo deceptive.

Well this is my monthly post, so enjoy and wish me luck!

Green M&M's

2008-01-29T14:07:00.001-08:00

I'm all for Valentines Day. It's the holiday with the best candy and best color palete. However M&M's is ruining it with small, medium and large bags of M&M's.

For those of you without a pulse, green M&M's are suposed to make you horney. So my question is how many do you need?

If you're totally not in geting some lovin' if you eat all of the medium sized bag are you sort of horney? Or do you need the large bag? Or is the large bag the common man's bag o' crack? Or if you mistakenly take too many will you be found naked by your housekeeper? Or go on a rape and pillage spree? Will M&M take responsiblity for the irresponsible use of their product? There is no warning label!! Will someone be able to moleste the mayor and get off on the M&M defense?

AND horn dogs are not romantic. Horn Dogs are scary and should stop learing at me just because my skirt is short and I'm dressed in Zebra print.

Please people! Stick to Conversation Hearts. Which as far as I know, have not lead to the over poplulation of the earth.

Invitation Irritation

2008-01-21T15:34:00.002-08:00

How come I am at work on MLK day? I stand for justice and "We shall overcome" and rights, but yet I'm still at work. I'd better get Ceazar Chavez day off. Although I have little to no clue about what Chavez was all about. Something about grapes. Also Disney Epot doesn't as well. There is a big picture of him and all it read is "Ceazar Chavez" and that's it. No description. No title. Everyone else had at least a paragraph. There is the CC park in Sac. I've been there for the tamale festivale. Did CC make tamales? I guess it just goes to show you that you have to make your cause simple enough for Disney to put it in 2 sentences, or you're ambiguous.

Anywho, I'm totally dying here. I've been working on the invite process for YEARS!! YEARS!! and am so sleepy now, and have ton's of laundry to do, so I'm just leaving. For good.

I'm so irked. IRKED!! I wish I knew enough to design my own darn invites.

PERFECT PRESENT

2007-12-14T11:55:00.000-08:00

Perfect Present

I know that every gift from people can’t be the ‘perfect’ gift. I’ve gotten a lot of nice gifts from people but some stand out as wonderful. Last night I got a wonderful perfect gift.

I was so worried that I missed the UPS man, I was running up and down the stairs to check and see if I saw the truck. Finally at 6:49 it arrived. I opened the box and it was a cooler and had dry ice that was all evaporated and then I opened it and saw 9 cupcakes.

3 of them were red velvet with red velvet sprinkles and vanilla frosting.
3 were chocolate with chocolate frosting and sprinkles.
3 with white with coconut frosting.

Okay, so I must say at this point, I was like. Hmm. These don’t look all that great. I mean they were perfect, but they were super duper cute or fabulous. I put them on my cupcake stand and they looked a lot cuter than in the cardboard box.

Then I took 3, one of each type to a going away party. My friend Julie and I cut the cupcakes into quarters and then tried a piece. THEY WERE THE BEST CUPCAKES I”D EVER HAD IN MY LIFE!! They were so good, we went downstairs to the neighbor, who we knew made cupcakes just so that we could ask for 3 of her cupcakes, because they were so delicious!! OH MY GOODNESS, these cupcakes are SUPER DUPER good. And they are made in Napa. I’m totally there. I mean, Napa isn’t that far from Sac. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!! And I’m NEVER sharing them with anyone else again. Ever.

Special thanks to Amber http://ambeegs.blogspot.com/ , for the perfect gift. And a special thanks to Opera, http://www.oprahs-favorite-things.com/ for listing them as one of her favorite things.

I've still got it baby

Okay, so we all know that I don't like being in my 30's. I mean, I know a lot of peeps say it's great and was the best time of their lives, but it's just not working for me. I really peeked in 8th grade. My skin is the only thing that's staid the same. 30 hit me like a mac truck this weekend on my way to Apple Hill.

Since I was the only one of my friends who really honors veterans by showing them how thankful I am by not showing up to work, I had to go to Apple Hill alone. For those of you not from the Central Valley, Apple Hill is a wonderful mix of farmers market, country, leaves, apples, and apple deserts. I love Apple Hill. I went to Apple Hill for my 28th birthday with Karen and Sarah and have a super cute photo of myself. Let me try adding it.

Okay, so I couldnt' find it and i think I loaded one from my 29th brithday, but I can't see it, so maybe it didn't work.

On my way up the mountians I was cruzing along at a comfy 81 mph in a 55 zone, when a bikecycle cop (maybe when he get's old enough he can get a car!) appeared behind me and pulled me over. I was totally sick. I mean, I'm over 30 and my never getting a ticket (other than fix-it tickets which don't count) run had finished. I try to think I'm still hot, but this Hot Buttered Cop Cornholio obviously didn't see that when he pulled me over. So I hand Officer Fife my drivers licence and registration. He went back to his bike and the whole time I felt like CRYING!! But then tought "I could have a good attitude or a bad attitude and the ticket will be the same. " I then started laughing becuase I mean, I really should have given the cops at least $10,000 in fines and thats just the ones I get pulled over for. Like this morning I wasn't paying attention and pulled thought a stop sign with out stopping. That was freebie. Sorry I digress.

The Fuzz comes back and hands me the ticket to sign and I sign it and smile and hand it back to Officer Doughnut. I'm totally thinking of how my friends are going to laugh becuase I finally got a ticket. Then Officer Jack Hole says "I just did this for a fix it ticket to take the tint off of your front windows. You're not supposed to have anything on them. Take this ticket to any Law enforcement and have it signed and sent to the address on the back. And slow down and becareful pulling back into traffic.

I'm so in love with Officer McDreamy who thinks 'mature' women are hot enough to let off without a ticket. CHP I Salutue you and will donate to your next chairty event, even if it's for Special Olympics.

Is it worth it?

I buy a lot of stuff. Lots and lots of stuff. Some is just a waste of my money.

1. Concentrated dishwashing soap/liquid. Waste of money. I'm going to give it a 2 second squrit wheither or not it's 3 times concentrated or full of water. So really I'm just wasting my money and putting more phospates into our water by using concentrated dish soap. But where can you find unconcentrated dish soap?

2. Cottonelle Toliet paper. Yes, I like how this feels on my backside, but I always use 4 squares minimun, and you only need 2 with Cottonelle, so again I'm wasting and helping to chop down more trees. Goodthing I saved a few in college. I'm using them all up now.

Some items are TOTALLY worth the price.

1. BareMinerals. The makeup so pure you can sleep it in. And I do. Everynight. I do have doubts as to weither or not it stays on my skin that long, but now I can sleep guilt free and blame my zips on my job.

2. Fibersure. This is the fiber powder you can add to anything you eat. It's great becuase you can up the fiber in something and there by lower the points if you're on Weight Watchers. So by all means this is worth the trillion dollars that it costs. However, you'll need Cottonelle.

Friday night went to a Benifit Comedy show. It was hillarious. Afterword, Amy was dropping me off at my house and she got pulled over by a cop becuase her lights weren't on. I though it was hillaious and praciticed my skills flirting with cops. Needless to say, she did not get a ticket.

Saturday I called my friend Julie and asked her if she wanted to come over and bake. Somehow it turned into her entire apartment building coming over to my house along with Amy and Randy. SO MUCH FUN.

Sunday -- Church with Amy and Randy. Dishes with Julie and Randy. Work for JDRF alone. :(
