and I don't mean that in an excited fan way :C My credit card was stolen or identity thefted or some shit. I maybe dropped it somewhere and didn't realize it, but I have serious doubts about that. I think I was pickpocketed or something. I feel like a character out of Oliver Twist... one of the random sucker extras that is PICKPOCKETED D: D: D:



So anyway, now that I literally have nothing but cash to work with for the next week, I am going to be buying exactly NOTHING if I can help it. except coffee. :P I definitely have enough cash to keep me in coffee, with money to spare, and that's what matters.

Also, I want a day off like now! I had to work the whole Thanksgiving + weekend and I have to work next weekend as well, so I need a day off just to like, decompress and clean and organize and not feel like the living dead. Seriously I can't even deal with anything, I haven't responded to email in DAYS and plus this goddamn credit card fraud bullshit... which, seriously who spends $40 on public transportation? Because I sure as hell do not and it irks me that this is what people pickpocket me to thus purchase. CUT YOURSELVES, OLIVER TWIST WANNABES, BECAUSE YOU DESERVE CUTTING AND I AM TOO PREOCCUPIED TO GIVE YOU YOUR JUST DESSERTS.

okay, so first of all, I have fucking ROCKED internet "black friday," thus allowing me a much reduced stress level as Christmas approaches.

People left to shop for:
Kristen
Bri
Mom
Dad
James
Mom's bday
complete Natface's mail

and then send out Christmas cards, and that is ALL. As of Sunday, I had a solid 15ish more presents I was concerned about, but those are all totally set now, thank you amazon.com! \o/

Also, I am really really into Christmas this year. I intend to get a Christmas tree, wreath, garlands, lights on EVERYTHING, scented candles, ridiculous holiday decorations that no one in their right mind would buy, tacky tacky tacky. I'm gonna DO IT. and I'm going to bake. I've already successfully made those orange/cranberry/white chocolate chip cookies, and I want to try again but experiment with the spice cabinet. MOAR NUTMEG IN EVERYTHING. Maybe I can make peppermint something or other.

SO CHRISTMAS, I AM ALL ABOUT YOU. CHESTNUTS ROASTING ON AN OPEN FIRE AND SHIT. Oh my God, I am going to play NSYNC'S "HOME FOR CHRISTMAS" ALBUM SO SO SO MUCH!

In fact, starting Friday, Christmas fun is allowed, so I should make a mix on my iPod of all my Christmas music. That basically boils down to like one Jar of Clay Christmas album + Nsync's Home for Christmas + Lady Gaga's "Christmas Tree" song, but that's what free downloads are for. I will beef it up.


OKAY OKAY BUT ENOUGH ABOUT CHRISTMAS, MORE ABOUT T.V.!!!

- I have been kind of over GLEE for a bit now, but the other day I was in the mood so I've been catching up a bit and I saw the Rocky Horror episode and SHIT GUYS WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THEY HAD MEAT LOAF ON GLEE???? Also, I am kind of horrified they didn't do a whole assload of Meat Loaf songs, but whatever, another day. ANYWAY, I LOVE ROCKY HORROR SO MUCH MY ROOMMATE ALMOST KILLED ME OVER IT IN COLLEGE. The thing is I would listen to the soundtrack over and over and over until she was ready to murder me, but I don't even care, it's a great movie.

- I saw The House That Drips Blood On Alex (link here, you are WELCOME) ages ago and I've been meaning to watch The Room but had put it off until the other day, and OH MY GOD YOU GUYS, NEW FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME!!!!!

Let me wax poetic about my love of The Room now, because it is the greatest film EVER MADE OR EVEN CONCEIVED OF (EXCEPT FOR THE MOVIES I INTEND TO ONE DAY MAKE, WHICH ARE JUST AS GOOD) BUT SERIOUSLY.

First of all, apparently Tommy Wiseau was in PDX last month or something and I fucking MISSED IT because I HAD NO IDEA HE WAS HERE and my life is a black hole of sadness, but anyway, everyone should watch this movie IMMEDIATELY.

I mean, this is a man that filmed the whole movie on both 35mm and in high def because he didn't know the difference so he just bought both cameras and put them side-by-side.

THIS IS A MAN THAT SPENT $6 MILLION TO MAKE A MOVIE THAT I AM REASONABLY SURE COULD BE RECREATED WITH A BUDGET OF $100.

THIS IS A MAN THAT WHEN ASKED HOW HE CAME UP WITH $6 MILLION DOLLARS EXPLAINED THAT HE SOLD LEATHER JACKETS IMPORTED FROM KOREA.

I CANNOT EVEN BEGIN TO EXPRESS ANY OF THE AMAZING FEELINGS CHOKING OFF MY OXYGEN SUPPLY RIGHT NOW, BUT THEY ARE LEGION.


IN CONCLUSION, WATCH "THE ROOM"

FOR SERIOUS.

ADDENDUM, THEY HAVE AN UNOFFICIAL GAME BECAUSE THIS MOVIE IS SO BOMB: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/547307

Fiiiiiiiinally cashed in my points from the David Archuleta Street Team days. I was thinking it was all going to have been a giant waste of time, in terms of getting prizes or whatever, but they've finally put up actual prizes, so I got a $15 itunes gift card, which is basically like $15 free dollars for doing stuff I wanted to do at the time. Peace out, Street Team, thanks for the money, I wanted to buy "The Walking Dead" but I didn't want to pay $15 and now it's like I am getting it for free. \o/


Pretty excited - totes going to see NKOTBSB at the Staples Center in July, which means (of course) DISNEYLAND AS WELL, since we'll be in the area and everything already. Probably there will not be lots of going on rides, only because we'll have a 2 year old with us, but we can at least dress him up like Peter Pan, which is all I ask. Probably I will look for a Captain Hook costume as well.

Now I shall go catch up on Supernatural and Dexter, for my life is a good one.

NKOTBSB

ON TOUR

AS ONE

MY LIFE, SOON TO BE COMPLETE, ONCE I ATTEND THE SHIT OUT OF THIS, HOLY FUCK

Words I thought I would never say: PLEASE SOMEONE BE TAPING OPRAH TODAY!!!!

(because BSB is going to be on it and KEVIN WILL BE THERE :O )

I spent last night watching approximately 5 hours of "Toddlers & Tiaras" because my favorite activity is judging other people, and that show is the perfect opportunity to exercise one's serious judgment muscles, for truth.

I apologize in advance to you if you're into pageants, because we are going to have wildly different opinions on the practice. Same goes for sororities.

( Toddlers & Tiaras, because reality tv meets documentary is seriously the greatest )

I went to the Alibi last night, for karaoke and drinks and mostly the enjoyment of watching a guy walk around FALLING DOWN DRUNK because it was his 21st (not a friend of mine, just a random bro)

My sister and I pulled out High School Musical's "Breaking Free" first thing, and when the words didn't come up on screen, the KJ was all "uhhhhh" and we were like "no, don't worry. WE GOT THIS." and wrecked it. WRECKED IT SO GOOD.

Anyway, there was also a failed attempt at Jewel (I do not know her songs very well, turns out) and an excellent rendition of Womanizer by me (solo). Womanizer is officially the easiest song in the world to sing for karaoke, which works just fine for me, it's hard to hear yourself up there.

The other thing is, I ordered a total of two rum and cokes (uh, okay and I had 1/3 of a bottle of red wine before getting there, but that's practically like drinking juice), which shouldn't have been all that much, except that on my second rum and coke I was like "uhmmm, this seems really strong" because normally they taste less strongly of liquor as you go, cuz you know, getting tipsy and stuff... and then my sister's boyfriend is all "OH YOU THINK? IT'S ALL RUM" and I was like "uhhhhh, I ordered a rum and coke though?" and he's like "Yeah, well, let me tell you, there is no coke in that" so uh, I guess the waitress is into getting ladies drunk? I mean, that's all I had for the night, so no worries, but still, kind of hilarious and odd.

What is the song that is playing when Sam & Dean are in the car ( spoiler )

HEY MY FLIST,

I was hoping some of you are into things like anarcho-syndicalism? Or similar or wildly differing schools of thought even?

Basically I would love some reading recommendations on topics along those lines, if any of you have any. Because otherwise I'm going to troll amazon.com and probably pick out fucking terrible literature and then misinform myself.

SAVE ME FROM ME.

Love always,
Me

No offense to those that use this regularly or like, who come from that time period where it was popular (in certain settings, amongst certain people) on a regular basis, but the word "grok" makes me want to gouge out my own eyeballs as well as everyone else's so none of us have to look at it ever again. IDK, it makes me cringe every time, what can I say.

My dad thinks it is a cool word and uses it in real life conversations. ALOUD. This may be part of the reason I think it is lame beyond all reason (I say "totes," so really I have no high horse here.) although I actually think my dad is the coolest, if not in a conventional actually cool sense, so it can't be just this. Also, I find that I almost only see people that seem to be trying too hard using it (including you dad, sorry, love you though!), so that's probably the other part of why I hate that word.



Anyway, I want to talk about Inception, because it is my new shiny favorite toy of all ~♥~♥~♥~

( Inception. Meaning really I talk about Arthur/Jiggle mostly )

(I needed to not have this under cut-text. It's too important to my LIFE)

- all I want in the world is to have someone write me a story about how Arthur's last name is Fonzarelli. He is affectionately known as 'The Fonz' in some circles. and I cannot be the first person to have thought of this. SERIOUSLY. I just want Arthur to get stressed and started being all "AAAAY" while snapping his fingers and frowning, okay... and then maybe hop on a motorcycle... and maybe he's in a water skiing competition and maybe jumps the shark (yes, this is where the phrase "jump the shark" originates and I find it fully hilarious). He's such a rebel! High school dropout! Look how nice he cleaned up as Arthur, awww.


Anyway. so many prompts I want to put on inception_kink, seriously. The above is like, the least of these.
