Yesterday afternoon my mom and I had our second great conversation in a row. I kept insisting that she had to “break it down” and instead of listening to me, she kept laughing and thinking about MC Hammer. To which I replied “Put on your Hammer Pants and Break it down, mom”. Hopefully, she’ll think …
Madonna & Me
Pep and I spent over an hour yesterday discussing the new Madonna (Justin/Timberland) song 4 Minutes to Save the World. We decided that while it’s good (and super-fun to dance to) it doesn’t seem very Madonna-ish. We also agreed that while she usually is a trend-setter and a leader in most categories, this time it …
The Victor
If you think you are beaten, you are.If you think you dare not, you don’t.If you like to win but think you can’t,It’s almost a cinch you won’t.If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost.For out in the world we findSuccess begins with a fellow’s will.It’s all in the state of mind.If you think you are …
LeBron + Gisele + Vogue = Racist?
LeBron James and Gisele Bundchen are on the cover of the April 2008 issue of Vogue and somehow it’s stirring up racial controversy. Are you kidding me? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Seriously folks, WHAT THE FUCK? I watch basketball. Actually, I’m a big fan of LeBron James – I would say he’s my second favorite …
The French Bulldog
LeRoy has the worst farts known to mankind. He can and will clear a room in a moments notice. Somehow, I am the only one who can handle the stink. But sometimes it feels as though I just swallowed one. You’re welcome.
Happy Irish Day
I hate to say it but I am wearing green today. In fact, I kind of look like Peter Pan (with jeans). I can’t help it. As with most things, I blame my mother. When I was a kid, she would send me to school in a green dress with a green cardboard crown that …
Kathy Olivas prints
I work in an art gallery for an art dealer in Los Angeles as a web/graphic designer and am surrounded by art that I cannot afford. Over ten years ago I fell in love with the artist Mark Ryden but didn’t know who he was at the time. By the time I figured it out, …
Jem – They
This should be filed under February 2008 but it missed the posting wagon. Who DID make up all the rules?
Baby Fever
above art:Mark Ryden “Cecella” My husband and I got married (well, eloped) September 4, 2006. He proposed at my 30th 80’s Roller Skate birthday party at the end of the Hokey Pokey – and it was awesomely radical! I thought soon after we’d buy a house and start makin’ babies. Real estate in LA slowly …
It’s FINALLY friday
This has been a rather strange week for me mentally and physically and I am glad that it is coming to an end. Yesterday, I locked my keys in the car – the 1993 Subaru I’m driving because my car has been in the shop since October 15, 2007. Yes, again, that was since OCTOBER …
Project Runway vs Ghost Hunters
What if Christian, winner of Project Runway (and my favorite as well) were to join the cast of Ghost Hunters and TAPS crew? He’s got the FIERCE look down …something to ponder. However, I’m guessing if one is a follower of either of the above shows, most likely, they don’t even know about the other… …
Evil Mrs Peppers
Is it wrong that I am almost 32 (not to mention, female) and can’t wait to get home from work to play X-box? Is it wrong that I have my own bubble-gum pink controller? Is it wrong that when my husband hooked it up in the master bedroom (because this is our second x-box in …
too much coffee
makes for an already over-active mind to implode on itself. How wrong is it to hate? I “hate” when I don’t get what I want. I hate when I have to be so fucking blunt that I hurt someone’s feelings when I’ve tried numerous times to “say it nicely” – for lack of better words. …
