mondays suck.

I love watching guys lift weights at the gym, they’re so funny and cute with their strenuations. Most of them lift way more than they should be lifting and they do it quickly, with momentum, not bothering to hold the count or do it slow and steady, which is how I’ve always been taught. Often I see them being lifted off their seat/feet by the force of the weights, like instead of pushing the weight, the weight is pushing them. How is that helpful? They get all sweaty and huffy, making curious grimaces and stranger noises. I find it very enjoyable and distracting.

I suppose their way gives them those big punchy muscles, and my way doesn’t, which I guess is better since I’m a girl. Well, according to my private parts, I am. Sometimes I wonder.

As much as I like watching these guys in the gym, though, I’m not a big fan of the big muscles. It’s entertaining when working out, but I’m more fond of the long, lean and lanky look. A skateboarder’s body.

Actually, that isn’t entirely true. I do very much like that style of body, prefer it maybe, but I see many men in my daily goings-on who don’t fit that description, and they frolic in my mind just as easy. In fact, they can sometimes frolic quite a bit dirtier.

And if strenuations isn’t a real word, it should be.


when all you see is your mom.

I’m offering a 2nd song of the day to help us through these dark and troubled times. a song I hope will be ry’s anthem and carry him into his big, grand future. a song that describes g to a t.

momma’s boy by chromeo. the best song you’ve never heard. I guarantee that each of you will love it. Really. It’s totally lovable. all synthy and silly. in a good way, trust me. look this is their album cover, you can’t go wrong with these guys.

fancy footwork

also, it really annoys me how this theme embeds photos into the posts.


no one supports me in my materialistic and meaningless endeavors

what, do you people CARE about me or something¿

One of the reviews said: “The E4c model doesn’t quite deliver that fantastic audiophile quality of the E5c, but it’s so close that you won’t notice if you don’t have really great hearing and expertly trained ears.” Now, if really great hearing and expertly trained ears doesn’t describe me then I just don’t know what does.

But fine. FINE. I’ve seen these E4c headphones for under $200. So FINE, despite my exquisite ear functioning, maybe I will spend the lesser amount of money and get the inferior earbuds. FINE. Then I can take the rest of my money and do something useless like invest. sigh. sigh all over america.

having four days off from work has been nice. also, eating lots of food. and taking a long nap every single afternoon. I could spend the rest of my days sleeping and be perfectly fine with that, really I could.

I leave you with a good song from the beastie boy’s check your head, called namasté. excellent album, my favorite of the beastie boys, even over paul’s boutique. I’ve realized that a good majority of my favorite songs come from the ’90s. a local radio station had an all-90s weekend not long ago, and it was the best weekend of my entire life.


shure or save?

Okay. So I have the money to buy my much desired Shure headphones. I have more, in fact, since I found them cheaper through an amazon seller. So, should I buy them? Or should I be smart and sensible and save the money for christmas presents? or a rainy day? or ryland? put the cash in a CD? put it towards a new Mac? get myself a new ipod touch? xbox 360? a keurig? save it for amsterdam next year? san carlos? so little dollars, so many things to use it on.

We’re getting out early today because it’s thanksgiving. Plus we get the next two days off. I gotta get my haircut and then head home and make my pies and mentally prepare for tomorrow with g’s family. let’s be thankful I am all stocked up on mind-numbing and mood-altering drugs.

happy thanksgiving kids, see ya next year!

wait, umm, it isn’t christmas. okay, so I’ll probably be back later today, and tomorrow and Friday and sat & sun too. I have nothing better to do with myself. I’m certainly not going to waste my days off by spending quality time with my child or my ball and chain. sheesh.

I’ll leave you with a screenshot of my desktop at work.
