Letter to the editor

Dear Stephaine Meyer,

I have to say I am very disappointed you gave in so easily to the idea of making a movie out of Twilight. First I must ask, were you that desperate for the money? Or was it so intriguing like that hot guy you know you should wait to hook up with but can't so you just go for it?

I think you have whored yourself out and now you look like that desperate girl that our mothers warn us about if you jump into bed too quickly. I really think you should have waited. Maybe its because you were a movie virgin and you just couldn't wait to get it on. But come on, there are people out there with more money and worth waiting for.

Instead you have left all of us with a bad taste in our mouths. We are suffering from the "walk of shame" with you.

Here are my questions to you

Why not hold out for a bigger budget? (Maybe you should look up JK Rowling in the whitepages and get some advice from her. She was very successful turning her books into quality movies)

Who did the casting? Are these people playing these roles really what you envisioned when you were writing the book? What happened to vampires being the most attractive species on earth?

I am quite disappointed in the casting and their acting abilities. I know it was low budget but I am sure there are people out there that can act and take a nice pay cut for it.

Was the budget really that low, that they were low on extras and you needed to fill in? Or was this your 5 minutes of fame in a movie?

I beg you and plead you to please not hop into the sack so easily the second time. Please be respectible from here on out. Hold out for someone better with deeper pockets. You can gain some dignity back!

2009 Resolutions... Fall off the band wagon list

I decided that resolution list is not the appropriate name. I am calling this list fall off the wagon list.... Why you ask? We all know how long resolutions last. I can honestly look back and say I don't think I have ever followed through an entire year with a resolution. But here goes the list.

1. Cut down on drinking. This means limit the number of drinks in an outing to 3.

Where did I get 3 from? Not sure maybe because its my favorite number, maybe I think its reasonable not sure but thats the number for 2009. 3 Maybe I shouldn't point out the obvious because I like to believe I am being good by deciding to drink less but I will entertain you. Notice I did not say the size of these drinks. There is a reason behind this, I know there will be times keeping it to 3 will be difficult like during beer pong tournaments. So if I have 3 larger drinks those can be divided up to accomodate the needs of the party. ;) (some of you may want to place bets on how long it is until I fall off the wagon on this one) Ok enough on drinking....

2. Increase my work outs from 3 a week to 5 a week.

I will fit in the F'ing jeans that have been in the closet for the last 2 years that are suppose to be the "skinny jean" I am tired of the fat jeans getting too small and having to buy a bigger pair of "fat" jeans.

3. Read more

Once I finish reading the Twilight series I am on to the next book... which is 'Are you there Vodka, its me Chelsea.' Ok the real reason behind this is bc I want to read that book, I am sure my reading will trail off after this. To be honest that book grabbed my attention because the title sounds like something I would say myself. So I am intrigued and I have heard from 2 others that this is a hilarious book so who can't afford a good laugh.

4. Stick to a budget

I never really see the point to a budget for a few reasons
1. If I have the money why can't I just buy it?
2. I can't take my money to the grave I should just spend it while I am alive and enjoy life
3. The more money I spend the more entertained my blog readers are.. more adventures (ok I just made that up but I do believe the others)

5. Find myself before finding a man

This is probably the one thing on this list I will stick to the longest. This is the first time in like 12 years that I am actually single going into the new year. I think its a good idea to get a grip on me before dragging some poor unsuspecting guy along with me. (note this doesn't mean I won't have hook ups and fun along the way...)


Ok so there you have it my fall off the wagon list...

If you're a betting person I would tell you the odds are with drinking and a budget. Those have the highest odds of falling off the wagon first. Although working out 5 times a week isn't far behind.

Dear Blog Stalkers I mean faithful readers,

I apologize for not updating my blog lately. I know several of you stalk daily and have been disappointed to find nothing updated on the page. I left you all high and dry and bored with no details to live vicariously through me. No promises but I will try my best to do a better job and posting more frequently. For those of you that have been faithfully waiting for a new post you will be overwhelmed with blog overload today.

I was laying in bed tossing and turning trying to fall back asleep and blogs just swirled in my head. So today I bring you several blogs. Still no details on the past parties, I will circle back and bring you some of the exciting events, however, I will put this out there I don’t feel the stories are too juicy but they might be enjoyed…

PS I hope everyone had a good holiday season!

Do you ever have those days were every other word comes out as a swear word, you talk faster than you can think cause you are fired up? You feel like you shouldn't have gotten out of bed or at least gone back to bed and not faced the word. And then your mom has to point out it seems you are having a bad day, you're being snappy!? Work decides you seem to be "bored" so they pile more projects on an already stressful week....

Yeah that's my day today... thank god I have the weekend to look forward to and heavy consumptions of alcohol to erase those short term memories of a bad week!

Cariosity

As in car curiosity...

Here are 2 things I will never understand...

1. People who decorate their cars for the holidays (lights, Christmas wreath, antlers, etc.)
Don't get me wrong I am no Grinch, no Scrooge in fact this is my favorite holiday. I grew up in a house where we had a Christmas tree in every room. Even now my biggest tree is in my bedroom so I can look at it each morning I wake up and a second one in the living room.

Does this make these people more festive than the rest of us? Are they trying to out do us with holiday spirit? Are these the people that really buy those ugly holiday sweaters? What does the rest of their homes look like, like Christmas drank too much and threw up all of their house?
I could go on and on but you get the point...



2. People who have massive amounts of shit in their rear windows of their cars. I mean not literal shit but "stuff" with a theme to it.

Yesterday I was driving and on my morning commute I passed this woman driving a car with all kinds of stuffed animals in the back window. Is she a charity worker waiting to hand those stuffed animals out? Is she a kidnapper trying to use those as bait? What is it?

For those of you who don't understand what I mean I am including a picture example of the insanity I am talking about...(these are the extreme and not what I saw yesterday but you get the point)

Unsolved Mystery...

I would like to re-examine the case of the missing contact from Reno party 2 weekends prior...


Some new evidence has been found and I would like to submitted it into the case.

The other day while doing some laundry I picked up the sweater I wore to the party and needed to read washing instructions before throwing it into the wash in case it was marked with those dreadful words.... "dry clean only"

As I picked up the sweater I noticed something fall to the floor and to my disbelief it was that one contact!

Yes folks thats right the missing contact. Hard as could be but still recognizable. And we thought we would never find out what happened. Oh the excitement in my life. Actually you have no idea how funny I actually thought it was.

(I wanted to call Yaya right away to share the humor then decided against it when I realized it would have been like 1 am for her.... don't think it would have been as funny to be woke up about it!)

So there you have it... Mystery solved (for the most part, we will never know how it got there!)... Case Closed!

Social Calendar

This week is not as packed with VIP events however there is one major event at the end of the week that is going to be over the top!

Monday- Monday Night Football and Twilight

Tuesday- Twilight (yes I am a slow reader get over it!)

Wednesday- Clogging my arteries with good ol' Wing Stop with friends

Thursday- Probably still reading Twilight maybe happy hour

Friday- Work Christmas party... I lied and said its a friends birthday, I just don't find the fun in hanging out with my co-workers who have all been friends for years from a different job and try to "include" me cause its the right thing to do... I would rather drink by myself!

Saturday- The much anticipated long awaited Ugly Sweater Christmas Party
This event is to include- beer pong, maybe my first keg stand ever, drunk Christmas carols to the unsuspecting neighbors in our ugly holiday sweaters, mistletoe, egg nog, live reindeer, twister, flip cup, and I am sure many more shanannigans that I couldn't even dream up at this point!

Sunday- Rehab brunch at my place for anyone that ended up not making it home from the previous nights party of the year!
