1. Did you ever think that you'd be a star? If yes, doing what? Mask making or writing.

2. Tell us about the last time you had a romantic dinner. All my meals involve romance.

3. Tell us about your worst job interview. Hee! I drove out to Amsterdam, NY. Got a little lost. I forgot what the job was for and had to bullshit for a little while. Turns out they were looking an activities manager for an upscale drug rehab. The guy interviewing me must have had about 30 Red Bulls because he was bouncing all over the place and seemed really vague about "what are the hours, what is the rate of pay, etc". The icing on the cake was him saying "drug addiction is not a medical problem, it's a poor lifestyle choice."

4. Tell us about your stupidest date. I was 19, he was tripping on acid, ate a tuna sub and tried to kiss me. This was after he stood me up the 1st time we were supposed to go out.

5. How much in common do you think you should have with a romantic partner? The bullshit things don't matter, like music and movies. But there should be common ground there for the relationship to survive.

6. Tell us about a favorite meme that you loved but no longer posts. Don't have one.

7. How did you get into blogging? My awesome and beautiful friend Lydia (http://kiss-and-makeup.blogspot.com/ and http://deliciousnessofyum.blogspot.com/ and http://lydia-365.blogspot.com/)

1. Pants on the Ground.... hands in the air

2. To compliment Kimber's question from last week.... have you ever fell down the stairs? Yes. It hurts.

3. Have you ever written to a company about their product? Ever called them? I complained to a watch company. They did nothing! It was a cool watch too. It was a bubble filled w/ viscous liquid.

4. Your dog/cat/snake/iguana/pet skunk (or just fill in your pet's species) goes to the vet. Ok, you take them to the vet... most pets wouldn't go on their own. The vet tells you that your species has cancer. Do you:

• d. go full steam ahead with cancer treatment

I choose C.

11. If I were to send you a letter and I wanted to put a little heart sticker on the back of the envelope, what color sticker would you like it to be? Grey-blue.

Dim Sum and then Some

Man, I loves me some 3 day weekends. Personally, I think we should start having 4 day work weeks. But I'm pretty fucking lazy so what the fuck would I know.

Anyways, I decided to take advantage of some MLK sales at the local mall. Home waxing kits at The Body Shop for 2 dollars!

The flurry of opening my wallet built up quite an appetite. Sexybeast and I had a hankering for Vietnamese food. After driving into downtown Albany, we found Van's CLOSED. Crap! File that away in the ol' memory banks. Another fine eating establishment not open on Mondays.


(it was at this point in the story, that I fell asleep while typing.....)


FUCK!!!!! The italics button has ceased working!!! I fucking hate blogger!!!!

Please ignore the ugly type.

Sexybeast and I settled on Emperor's for Chinese. It's one of the few sit down Chinese places around that are worth eating at. We had the appetizer special, 8 little perfect steamed dumpling loveliness. We had scallion, I suspect there was bitter greens inside of that sucker as well. Very tasty. There was shrimps of which I do not eat, Sexybeast ate both and proclaimed them magically delicious. There was veggie, good but a little salty. And finally the pork tastiness from on high. It was about 11 bucks, more expensive than our entrees. Because it was lunch time, soup came w/ the meal. We both had won ton, as we both hate hot n' sour (looks like raw sewage) and egg drop (BLAH!!! hot snot). I would like to note the won ton wrappers never once disintegrated in the broth. Nummy! And oddly enough, we ordered the same thing for an entree, pepper sauce and peanuts. Sexybeast = shrimp. Me = chicken. It was spicy, the veggies were crisp and there was the nice little surprise of the crunch from the peanuts.

I say winner winner, tasty dinner.

Knocking at your Door

Maybe I'm not such a horrible person. Parts of me are ugly, some are giving. Chaos in the brain.

I worry about not living life to the fullest. I look back on the previous 6 months: I bought a house, I got published, I started a new and very demanding job and I got engaged. Perhaps I should stop beating myself up so much.

I started my wedding database. Why the fuck is hair jewelry so fucking expensive?

I really love that TV show "The United States of Tara". Maybe I have multiple personality disorder. Nyah, more like schizophrenia.

I went to the gym today for the 1st time in 5 years. I've been working out at home for a long while now. I fucking deplore the gym. "The hamsters on the mill go round and round. Round and round. Round and round." The road to nowhere. Dieting is damn full time job.

Time for some raisin toast. I hate raisins but love raisin toast.

That's the charm of me.

Stuffy Stuff

http://manicmondaymeme.blogspot.com




Growing up, what was your favorite sitcom? The Facts of Life. I freakin' loved that show!!!!!! My fave epis were from The Edna's Edibles era.

What's your idea of a romantic date? A day at the art museum followed by a long leisurely dinner and ending up w/ snuggling on the couch watching a movie. And hot sex obviously!

What are you most afraid to lose? My sense of identity, what ever that is! I seriously don't know what or who I'm supposed to be anymore.

Yup, it's Monday

http://curiouasacat.blogspot.com


1) About how many hours a week do you spend watching TV? Too many!!! I'm including reruns of The Simpsons, Family Guy and The Office. Plus stuff I watch on-line. Oh well, I'm not too fussed about it.

2) If you have a day off, do you like to sleep in or get up early? Sleep in!!! And get in a morning round of sex.

3) If you could exchange work space--not job assignments, just desk or work area--with someone at your job, with whom would you switch? Nobody. I like my office. I have graduated from cubicle/desk to a private office :D

4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one. "weave-tastic!"

Brain Vomit

Here's some stuff that has been kicking around in my noggin:

Wedding planning sucks. I'm in the process of trying to find a venue and most of the websites I've been checking out don't have a price listing. So guess what I get to do on my lunch breaks.

BLAH!!!!!!

I've been watching that "Teen Mom" show on the interwebs (we're cheap bastards at my house, y'all. no cable here!), It's a spin-off of the MTV reality show "16 & Pregnant". Basically life after the the rug rat is born. One chick gave her daughter up for adoption. OY! That was a fucking tear jerker. Especially since her mom and grey streaked mullet wearin' step dad (who incidentally is her boyfriend's bio-dad. uhh... weirdness!), did not approve of the whole adoption thang. So 4 months after the birth, they're still giving her grief about "taking the easy way out". Nice! And there's this bratty girl that goes out all night and leaves her baby w/ her parents. Say what? Yr living in a huge suburban house, yr paying no rent, someone is there to clean up after you and all the baby necessities are being provided for you free of charge and yr gonna yell at yr dad "fuck you!" I'm at a loss for words.

Brain is on overload. New job. Crash course in learning DV. Pile of crap on my living room table needs to be filled out and sent to HR. Think I'll go play pop it or word whomp.
