  • What's That Smell? [[Correction!]]

    Okay, so at least once a day I'm told that I smell good. I hope so! I take a shower every day, I use Herbal Essences shampoo and conditioner, and I put on deoderant every day. I also own at least 15 different perfumes, and about 5 different kinds of lotion from Bath and Body Works. Apparently I drive the guys I work with crazy every day with how good I smell. They often tell me to go away because I smell too good. Is that even possible?

    Anyway, how often do you get told you smell good?

    Yep, I just counted my perfumes, and I have 21 bottles of perfume. =]

  • NEW!!!!!!!

    So I made a new theme, what do you think? Is the font too hard to read on the side modules?

  • Reality Check

    I just read an article on Yahoo about Reality shows that didn't make the cut. Link. But my point is this: I had only heard of about 2 of the shows they discussed. One of the shows only had 1.7 million viewers. Yeah, I'd say that one tanked.

    I can stand only a few reality shows. I love Big Brother (what can I say, I love drama! lol), American Idol, America's Next Top Model, So You Think You Can Dance (DAMN there's some good dancers on that show!), and that's about it. The rest of them are kind of stupid. I used to watch Fear Factor back in the day, but that just grossed me out so I stopped watching it.

    So what's your secret reality show fav (everyone says they're stupid and annoying, but people have to be watching them!)?

  • Obama and Politics

    I'm not really a political person, I'll be the first one to say. I don't like politics or politicians in general. I know for sure I'd lose any kind of political debate. I don't classify myself as one party or another, but I'm more democrate than republican. I'm against the death penalty and I totally advocate gay marriage (duh).

    I really was going to vote for Obama this year, but I ended up being sick with a bad head cold and almost called in to work, and ended up sleeping all day. I didn't vote in 2004, the first year I could vote, because I didn't like either of the canidates (Kerry? Seriously?! No.) This year I was getting more into the campaign, and fully intending on voting. I liked Obama's campaign slogan of "Vote for change," and I started watching his speeches and debates on YouTube. I noticed that on Obama's YouTube there were speeches and debates. On McCain's YouTube, all there was were attack ads on Obama. I mean, really. Be real and put something out there.

    I was very happy to learn that "Vote for Change" won and have been excited ever since to Bush leaving office. I believe he's one of the dumbest people I've ever seen. I watch videos on YouTube and laugh. But really, it's not funny. The American people voted a retard into the most powerful position in the country! The man can't speak with a telepromter in his face, and he sure as hell can't speak when the press ask him questions. If you've seen the video of his interview in Ireland, he's also very rude. I know people hate hearing about the war, but even as young as I was when it first started, I've never believed in it. I don't think we belong there. I support the troops, but I don't support the war. Yes, Saddam is a man who needed to be taken down, but be real about it. Don't make shit up about weapons of mass destruction. Tell the truth. Say that Saddam is a sick murdering bastard and he needs to be dealt with for his crimes against humanity. But then again, who says it's America's job to do it? Why do the leaders of the United States think they need to stick their nose in everyone else's business?

  • How Often?

    How often do you listen to the silence? How often do you contemplate it? How often do you just stare out the window and watch the sun disappear again? How often do you smile when you see a flower growing in the dirt? How often do you tell someone that you love them? How often do you hug them?

    How often do you laugh? How often are you there for a friend? How often do you watch your favorite movie even though you know all the lines? How often do you stop your life to relax? How often do you enjoy the small things in life?

    How often do you live?

  • Lesbians!!!

    My best friend Susan told me about a list her friends had come up with, a list on how to tell if a girl is a lesbian just by looking at her. I wasn't there, and she didn't tell me the whole list. She told me the agreed upon top two: she has CHAP STICK, not lip gloss or lipstick, chap stick, in her front pocket, and she puts her hands in her front pockets. She then told me a story about how her and her girlfriend, Becky, went Christmas shopping. They stopped in front of something, and Susan put her hands in her pockets without even realizing it.

    So a few weeks ago I was at their house and Becky was talking to her ex husband (poor woman was married and pregnant when she realized she was a lesbian!) and she stuck her hands in her front pockets. I said to her, "Becky. Your hands." She looked down and busted a gut laughing. It was hilarious.

    Now, I'm calling on all lesbians out there:
    If you see a woman, and say she's all alone, how can you tell if she's a lesbian?
    ((by the way, this is more for fun...))

    I always have my Carmex in my front pocket. I don't like most lip glosses because they are sticky and lipstick just doesn't hydrate my lips...so I guess I've been a lesbian the whole time without even realizing it! lol

    This counts for bisexuals too

  • I Could Never Be An Eskimo

    I got off of work this morning just before 2AM. And it was freezing. My car tells me the temperature and it's usually only a degree or two off. I went to start my car and what I heard was a slow whump whump whump. My car almost didn't start! Then my car told me it was -16. Who knew what the windchill was!

    Well, my car was running for about 5 minutes with the defrost full blast, but the frost on my windshield wasn't melting fast enough. Are you kidding me?!

    So I had to get out in the cold again (yes, it was cold in my car too, but warmer because there's no wind...adur) and scrape.

    It was much too cold for this.

    It's the cold that seeps into your bones and you feel like your face is going to freeze right off. You get back inside wherever and your skin hurts because of the difference. That kind of cold.

    I passed a bank and it told me the temperature was -23. My car failed me. I later learned that the windchill was -40 or so.

    You know you're from a cold region when there's a sub zero cold snap and suddenly 20 degrees feels like spring.

    I hate Minnesota sometimes.

    EDIT:

    OMFG. I think it's colder tonight than it was last night!!! I really hate this.
