La Dolce Vita

I'm off to Italy! *fist-pump*
Will miss the puppy. *single tear*

Waste of Space - No. 1

I know what boys like.
Not.

Major

Posh & Becks have come to America. Why this is of importance of me, I do not know. But it is. I even watched her one-hour "reality" show last night. Completely staged, but loads of fun. That chick is fabulous.

Snuck out for a super late showing of the latest Harry Potter flick on IMax. In 3D, for that matter! T'was my first time... Noteworthy: Only a portion of the movie is meant to be viewed wearing 'em goofy glasses. And when the moment arrived, three eye-glass icons flashed across the bottom of the screen illiciting giggles out of yours truly...

Pilgrimage

There are, supposedly, eleven 7-11 turned Kwik-E-Marts scattered across our glorious country until the end of July. Seeing that one of these eleven of four-thousand 7-11 turned Kwik-E-Marts is located a mere 30 minutes away from my home, I decided to make the drive to Mountain View this morning before work to pay respect to Apu and the gang. To my disappointment, there was no Apu behind the counter to greet me, nor were there any Buzz O' Cola or Krusty O's left for me to purchase as souveniers. There was, however, a Squishee machine and ooh, sprinkle and pink-frosting-covered donuts. Mmm... donut!

Two Thumbs Up

Caught a showing of "Transformers" last Friday with Pams. Two thoughts. One, those folks in Hollywood are amazing. How did they do that? Two, why'd they let Optimus Prime live? (Woops, was I suppose to post a spoiler alert?) The boss dies in the animated feature film, so why not stay true to the cartoon? Damn Spielberg probably wants to milk the franchise for more money. And I, sadly, will, like a lemming, find my way to the theater for Transformers, Round Two. Sucker!

Ever listen to the music of Nya Jade? Yeah, well, me neither -- that was, until this past weekend. But you totally should! I caught her at the Rockit Room on Clement this past weekend, and she was amazing. She's like a blend of Sade, Tori Amos, and Regina Spektor (if I most compare). A talented woman. Was invited to the musical showcase by a friend who's friends with her hubby, "Mr. Lieb" aka founder of Evite. Neat-o.

Pumpkin

When I hit 30.

But You Don't Look Any Older...

A very merry birthday to you, NS.

Oldie But Goodie

Can't fall asleep, so I have been packing up my apartment. Found this sketch within an old drawing pad. One that includes oodles of doodles of yours truly as a superhero, er, heroine.

Happy Birthday, Daddy

Dahlias, Daahhhling

As a reward to myself for my hardwork cleaning & packing-up the apartment, I bought myself these flowers. They remind me of peach-flavored Jelly Bellys. Bellies? Bellys? Help! I'm a moron.

Picture This

My boy at Ocean Beach. Weather was somewhat chilly, so no one else was out. Lonesome, much? Nah... he didn't seem to mind.

It's an unfortunate situation. I've become "that guy." "That guy" at the dining table who's constantly checking her BlackBerry. Even on Sundays! (Will & Doris, I'm so sorry!)LOOOOOOOSER.

Now if only y'all knew what I actually peruse on my little friend. Guilty Google of the week: "MTV Laguna Beach L.C." Dude, the show isn't even on anymore.

Home Sweet Home

My apartment... it's... "So fresh and so clean!"
Potential tenants will definitely be impressed.
Puppy not included.

It's Complicated

I Scream, You Scream

Milk, Milk, Lemonade

You're Special

NOT!

An article titled, "Blame It on Mr. Rogers: Why Young Adults Feel So Entitled" has been printed in today's Wall Street Journal.
According to some, the cardigan-clad sweetheart was doing us all a disservice with his self-esteem-building patter. He fed young minds with, "You're special," when in actuality, according to "experts," he should have been helping us face the cold truth that we all have "a lot of room for improvement."

Sad.

Patriot Act

A very merry Independence Day to you all!

Congratulations to Joey Chestnut of San Jose! Dude hoovered 66 dogs to defeat reigning world-champ Takeru Kobayashi's record of 63 dogs at the annual Nathan's dog eating contest in Brooklyn. Bit beastly?

Racing Ahead

Everyone is doing it... doing it... doing it.

Some Kind of Wonderful
