I'm here...with pants on!

I used to be obsessed with these guys.

Not bad.

This song is awesome!!!

Oh Wii homebrew hackers, what WON'T you come up with?

Oh and one for the PS2. Import from Japan.

Just found these looking up a Nintendo DS Vibrator peripheral.

Even though it's in French, I DARE you to get this song out of your head.



( I've realized something lately... )

So apparently if you send these guys your physical addy, email addy, name, and, of course, blog addy, you'll get FREE CHEESE, MOFOS!

I seem to be finding more people lately who also want to see the epic things I want to see happen (at least with my loves).

After I volunteered today at the ReStore, my mom and I went in another thrift store near my house (that's moving somewhere by the end of the month). Lots of old, funny stuff. Like Sudoku game (with gun).

Other than that, I can't think of anything else to say, other than the fact that I just got over a cold.

My high school class of '03. I know of 2 people currently making waves on the telly (well actually a 3rd, but he murdered someone). One is Patrick Cassels who is currently on the CollegeHumor show (which is insanely funny). I had to tape it cos I was at a Tu B'Shvat Seder last night with my mom. Yes I still use a VCR - old fashioned you say? Yes I am. Works just as well as a TIVO AND less expensive. Anyway, moving on, another one making waves is Lexi Lawson currently on American Idol. Yes I know I haven't watched it since the middle of season 2 (and then watched at the end to see Ruben Studdard win) because I thought it was just getting too popular by then. I just hope both ventures go really well cos I thought the premiere episode was really funny.

Ok I'll admit it, I NEVER hung out with either in High School cos I was too socially awkward and living in my brother's shadow. But I did see them around a lot.

Ok I'll admit it, I LOVE Sophie Ellis-Bextor again! I loved her to death when I started at DCC in '04 and then my interest for her fell by the wayside cos she wasn't making new stuff. I think an album of hers came out in '05 that I wasn't interested in and don't think was that great. However, 2007's Trip The Light Fantastic has been a phenomenal album. Damn this woman's music is catchy. The song I'm listening to now is from Trip The Light Fantastic.

Also casually checking The Verses MySpace page on Friday I found a song which I love called "In Order." It's in the artist mix section in the pull down menu.

Oh since I'm blabbing on about music I might as well pimp these guys since I'm obsessed with them. I just want this band and the Whitest Kids U Know to synergize in an EPIC way one day!


Ok just being shallow today.

Well 2 actually.

My mom noticed it, but AOL and Yahoo's home pages seem to indicate that they're morbid and according to my mom, always showing who's next to go out of business. Like they're screaming a big proverbial "ha ha" taunt at these companies going out of business or they're always the first to tell you who died. AOL seems to keep count on that. Even have photo diaries!

Also, just a rant here but how is it that someone gets to a point in their life that they get "MySpace Annoying." Yes I'm going to coin this term. By "MySpace annoying" I mean constantly posting bulletins about how "bored" they are or post a video on YouTube or complain about how emo they are. Yes I know you guys are gonna tell me I can choose to ignore it, but it's people I like that are doing it. I think the bulletins are what bother me most though because it's like "enough already!" I just kinda don't care. Am I weird or horrible for thinking that or does anyone else feel that way?

Just brought up a lot of feelings I thought was over, but now realize I'm gonna have to deal with head on if I'm ever gonna get anywhere. That's all I'll say there. One minute I love my life, the next I hate it and feel guilty on so many levels.

So I've been busy as of late. Adams has been having seminars on various subjects such as gardening and cooking. Last night Kusum Gupta made this Carrot Halvah that was out of this world! I also went to this Italian cooking seminar with Roger Dodge last Sunday (yeah Super Bowl Sunday). The food was very good there. The seed starting seminar I found most informative.

I've also been going to crafting classes at Michaels with mom. Those are fun as well cos I get to make something and take it home with me.
Speaking of, I got a Xyron sticker maker that is one of the most awesome inventions ever created! If you can only take so much from a glue stick, buy that! You can make a sticker out of anything (even a shoelace, perhaps).

Plus I've been finding out about classes at the library.

Finding out about more activities with the local Chabad. I do have some problems with Judaism that don't sit right with me and I don't believe in, but I do love the sense of community I get being around those people.

Plus I started volunteering at my local Habitat ReStore on Wednesday.

I haven't been doing much in the way of crafting though because I feel like I need a motivation to do anyrthing in that department.

I didn't think I was so popular. Feels like half the damn world is wishing me happy birthday today. Not complaining though.

I don't know why, but I just find the subject of land administration so interesting. That and media/copyright law like who owns what and who used to own what. When I took a Native American fiction class back in DCC, we read a book called Who Owns Native Culture? Didn't read the whole thing, but the topic is fascinating to me for some reason. It seems like very dry material reading about it (so what if it's Wikipedia?) but it's still fascinating.

This cat they're featuring on the Nat Geo special resembles my late cat, Sam.

Seriously Viacom? You want to take away all your stations from us Time Warner Cable customers cos Time Warner refuses to pay an EXORBITANT increase (22 - 36%)? And on such short notice? You guys have such craptastic networks and I was looking forward to Collegehumor next month on MTV (or whatever they're gonna decide to call it).

Gahr! Guess we'll be without some of my fave channels for a while, you turds!

Brings me back to the whole ABC/Disney dispute ("Disney has taken ABC away from you").

But kudos to Time Warner Cable for thinking of the customer.

A digital camera, a gym membership to Planet Fitness (it would've sucked if it was Maximum Fitness again), a Hess truck, an SD card to go with my camera, gift cards to Barnes & Noble, Best Buy, Aeropostale, and Bath & Body Works.

So I got this in my email today from Chabad.

"Lead a supernatural life and G-d will provide the miracles."

I don't how that's even possible, lol. I don't HAVE superpowers (at least none that I actively know of).

Another thing I don't how it's possible, last night I was listening to the opening track of the Whitest Kids' CD, and Timmy says "cut yourself with one hand while you jerk off with the other." How is that possible? You need at least one hand or finger to do such a thing. Very hard to fathom.

Well 2008 turned out to be a fabulous year. Hopefully, 2009 will turn out better.

So apparently Socks the cat is on his last legs due to cancer. Poor thing, my cat died earlier this year (if you didn't know already) due to cancer.

Sorry it's taken me such a long time to post this but here goes.

So Wednesday, November 12th, 2008 I saw my one of my comedy idols, The Whitest Kids U’ Know at the 92nd Street Y Tribeca location. It was, needless to say a frickin’ awesome experience to see them in person.

First off, I got majorly lost going from the 1 train station to 92nd Street Y Tribeca. Once I finally figured it out (by asking a lot) I got there a tad late (8:03 pm), but it was okay because a) they were still letting people in and b) the warm up comic was on anyway. All the seats were taken, but luckily, a booth was open so I sat at the end and just stripped to my “I don’t do drama t-shirt” (hey, I still had my pants) cos I was overheated walking so much. Sitting on the edge, I felt like I had prime view of the guys, especially Trevor and Darren. When Trevor ran to hit Zach during the Abe Lincoln sketch, he grazed my pant leg! Plus I had prime viewing of Trevor and Timmy during Line Leader. However, I was struggling a lot to see what was going on on stage, I was moving over a lot and I felt bad about it. On the upside, Melissa was sitting in the same booth so that was cool. When they showed the new sketches, I had to get up to see them.

Anyway, after the show, the guys were gracious enough to stay for pics and autographs. I managed to get Zach and Darren’s pics with me (they were good enough considering the only digital camera I have is my phone - I gotta invest in a digital camera) and their autographs. When I asked Darren for his autograph, I had the page open with my notes about how to get down there. He jokingly asked if it was “phone numbers.” I laughed and said no (I should’ve told him it was notes about how to get down there).  I talked to Timmy as well. Complimented him on the fact that he lost weight. He said he’s been eating more vegetables. I told him my some of my favorite vegetables such as broccoli, celery, and carrots. He said broccoli is one of the best things a woman can eat. I stood around awkwardly for a little while longer before I realized I needed to check the train schedule I had. I said my goodbyes and walked back to the subway station where I realized I lost my Metrocard and had to buy a new one.

That SOME sort of decent transportation may be coming to THIS side of the river? I'd love to have more NJ Transit on THIS side of the river!Why should the eastern side of the Hudson get all the reliable transportation? Maybe possibly stuff in Ulster or Sullivan counties? Heck, they already started with the Ulster-Poughkeepsie link.

I'd love to give them a piece of my mind! That the time HAS come for better public transportation. People are ditching their cars because of the shitty economy! There's college students that NEED to get around! People have jobs without cars! Something needs to happen!

Other than that excitement, I give you world toilet day (which passed on the 19th) and the spokesperson, Super Toilet (didn't they rip that off of Fairly Oddparents?)

I have a review of the WKUK Tribeca show coming soon (if you're my friend on Facebook or MySpace, you've seen the pics already - I seriously gotta invest in a digital camera).

Yes, I voted today and voted early. Very anticlimactic. I checked to see if there was anyone else I wanted to vote for, but not really. And I didn't feel guilty about it walking home.

So far this is the 3rd time I've voted in my life. I had forgotten until today that I voted in the primaries when I was at school. I voted for Obama even though it seemed like most of New York State who went Democrat voted for Hillary. Maybe because I wanted someone who could actually function and have a decent plan to change America? Maybe I want a woman that will actually DO something positive for the country and not just be a puppet. Someone that can hold her own and have an ACTUAL plan for America. If I vote for a woman, I want her to be a strong influence, strong minded, and actually BE a role model for future generations.
