You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage.

In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.


Ok and I have no idea about this one. I don't think it plays up the indifference nearly enough. oh well.

Oh...why the hell not

Let's see if you guys laugh hysterically in the same spot of this that I did.

In this moment, you think of love as something you don't need. You just feel like flirting around and playing right now.

You like your underwear to make you feel girlish and pretty. Let's hope you're a chick.

You're a closet exhibitionist who gets a thrill from being secretly naughty.

Your underwear is probably really, really old.

Mixed Signals

How could I have been so wrong about Mary? What have I become? I think the stress of working at DMS has finally affected my judgement. Basically, I have finally met my match when it comes to loophole dates. She keeps stringing me along on these insane get togethers, where some how it feels like a date situation. I think the Lord is finally punishing me for Operation Big Cheese.

Now, the saddest part of all this is that I am not even attracted to this woman. I will admit that I love spending time with her because it reminds me of the all great times growing up in Elgin. Also, she reminds a of the Mary from the movie, accept for the bod (we can have it all). For example, we both love the Bears and to my surprise Badger football due to her UW-Madison ties. I truly believe that the only reason I am bummed about all of this is because of my nature. I want something that I can never have. Where is the maturity in all of this?

Since we are in friends zone, it is time to let go of the lash and be myself. The first order of business is to finish my college stories. Every time we get together, we share stories from college but I always skip my dating situations for obvious reasons. The second order of business to let her read my two greatest literary works ever. Those stories will definitely shock her. Finally, I will tell her about the code I live by- the FIVE F's. If you guys have forgotten about them, they are FAMILY, FOOD, FRIENDS, FUN, and of course FORNICATION. I will admit the last F has never been on the top of the list. Yes, I know it is shocking.

A sequel to one my favorite movies

Any of you guys ever saw the movie The Cutting Edge? It was made in the middle 90s. It's was a good movie and inspired me to want to take figure skating lessons. Tom prancing around in tights on ice???? Thank god my brothers stopped me. Anyways, they just finish making the sequel . It's going to be released in early next year. Not sure if the movie is going straight to video/DVD or to the theatres.

Halloween, here i come!

Okay, so i have this halloween party to go to and all along, i thought i would just go as Miss Piggy... but then i decided that that was a really dumb idea... so after a long session of nail biting with jess, i've come up with the perfect idea! I don't know if u guys know the movie Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (the third in Park Chanwook's revenge trilogy-Oldboy was the second)... anyway, u can find sites on it... but I'm gonna go as Lee Youngae (Geumja) from the movie... hehe... i already got a dress (very retro 70s), and i got huge square sunglasses... all i have to do now is wear red eyeshadow around my eyes and bandage up my pinky finger and i'm good to go~! yeah!

just kind of excited *^^*

I'm sensing a pattern here.....

Apparently your Sari keeps accidentally having a thing for musicians. Or maybe everyone is trying to be in a band these days. Any rate, the new guy (well...he isn't new, he's re-new. I did a project with him and now he's in class with me) is the pianist in a band. They sound like Incubus on the Make Yourself album. And apparently I ALMOST accidentally went to one of his shows this summer cause they were playing with Secondhand at Uno's and then I decided to hang out with Brian instead. Not sure how I feel about that.......but I'm hoping they will play again (ideally with Secondhand since I know those guys) and then I can see them. For now........check the website.

da bito's schedule

Sorry to make a post so banal after yours, Mark, but I just have to inform everyone about this, right quick - for the convenience of anyone making group plans, I've started a blog for my schedule. Each week, I'll post work and all else at http://www.bitosschedule.blogspot.com .

Strategic Planning

For those of you going to the Decemberists with me tomorrow (and those of you who just want to come hang out for a bit) I thought I'd let you know what my plans are. Similar to what Araby did for the Sleater Kinney show, I thought we could all come to my house for dinner. I'm making potato leek soup, I went to the co-op and got bread and cheese and crackers and hummus. Anything else you guys want to bring will be accepted.

HOWEVER!!! I have a test at 4-potentially 5:15. This means that there's high likelihood I won't be home until 6. AND...I want to get there kinda early so I was hoping to leave here around 7:15 or possibly 7:30 to get to the Orpheum. Show starts at 8. The earlier we can leave the better. I'm VERY SERIOUS about this time schedule. VERY VERY VERY serious. So....come, eat a little, leave. If you aren't here to leave by 7:30 you'll just have to try to find us there. That's my deal. I really don't like getting to shows late. And I really don't like being in the back. And I really don't like having to push to get to the front. Ok...so. That's my story.

This ROCKS

Plans for tomorrow to be posted/e-mailed soon.

For now....play with this. I got "Physical" by Olivia Newton -John. And something I never heard of from the UK.

The Potency of the Sauce

I finally went on a loophole date and I did not even have to scheme or plan it. It is funny how that works. The date went ok, but I think she has a different opinion. She is so hooked on the SAUCE. It is not even funny. This Sunday will be the first official date. The SAUCE must flow.

Decemberists

So....give me a count of who's all in for the show on Thursday so I can start planning some things. Like where we're meeting, are we eating food, what the hell is going on........ok...so I'll probably NEVER fully know the answer to that last one.

I sure as hell don't right now.

Also.....Friday plans may need some revision. Bito knows the details, I'll discuss, but not openly and not voluntarily. She can tell you what's up and then if you need anything you can talk to me. It's nothing bad...I'm not going to lose my mind over it. Just not in the mood to have to deal with it or I fear I might. (Read this as.....if you IM/call me and start out with, "Sari, what's wrong" you WILL NOT get a reply. At least not one beyond "nothing". Don't even try.)

further proof that KCRW is the best radio station in LA (and possibly, the world)

This is for those of you New Pornographers concert-goers, and for those of you who won't be able to make it.

KCRW taped a live show with them in August, which you can access here.


If you haven't clicked the link in the left column yet, now would be an opportune time.

~keepin in the know

;)

In case anyone is interested....I'll be there, even if I have to take the bus to Middleton

From Mr. Adam Perkins:

Party!!!!!!
Yes it’s time for a swanke drink and dress up party. Everyone is invited. If you want to come and don’t know my phone number/address send me a message and maybe, if you are classy enough, I’ll let you know the details.

Date: Friday the 21st of October
Start Time: 8:00 P.M.
Attire: Monocles, dresses, suits, something nice and classy(I didn’t say what time period), be creative.
Drinks: Bring your own swanke hard core drinks. There might be some extra for variety.
Attitute: Duh… again Swanke, high class, whatever. If you don’t want to drink and/or dress up and have a good time, don’t come! Only happy people.
Food: If you want to bring hors d'ouevres let me know.. Please. Please??
Music: There will be music. There might be drunken dancing (well probably, especially if cute girls start/want to dance)
Who: YOU, your special someone. Maybe a friend. Let me know ahead of time.

Tell me if your coming. Don't make me email each one of you!
Questions? Email me. Comments? Email me. The End.

If anyone in Madison wants to go and ISN'T going to the New Pornographers show. Which you all are. I'm going no matter what.....no way in hell I would miss this one. I was told to "tell Steph" which I figured could equal.....tell everyone reading this blog. Ok. That's what I got.

Choose Your Own Adventure!

Book #33: What the hell are we doing?


"Andy, check your email!" you say into your cell phone, purposely wasting valuable work time at your dead end job. "You got a reply from Professor Oswald!"
"Thanks for checking my email for me again Jess, " says Andy. "You know how nervous I am about this Ph.D position. I have been ever since I told him I couldn't make it to Texas U by the date I'd initially promised. "
"Well, I hate to be a spoiler, but he said he's a little disappointed but it's ok if you come later. Do you think you can be done with your thesis by the end of the semester?"
"Gee, I don't know anymore. Everything seems to be taking longer than I thought it would. The last day of the semester is only 2 months from now, and the last bit of writing I submitted to my major professor was given back to me with 'needs to be completely rewritten' across the top."
"Hmm," you say, deep in thought. "If you don't think you can finish by then, you should probably tell Oswald so now. If you don't, you're going to have to work your ass off and get that thesis done within 2 months. Looks like we've got quite the dilemma on our hands!"




If you think Andy should tell Professor Oswald that he cannot finish his thesis in 2 months, comment 'choice #1'

If you think Andy should tell Oswald he will be there at the end of the semester even though he has a huge workload that may not get done, comment 'choice #2'

Cartoon Network Fans

Wow, I noticed there are a lot of people in this blog watch cartoon network. To Panda, what is wrong with your roommate? Back in college, I never went to bed by 9 or even 11pm. There was always something to study for or something good on television. I think your roommate has some issues. After all, who could not get along with a person who watches Family Guy and American Dad? My favorite episode of Family Guy is Emission Impossible and as for American Dad, the latest episode in which the Dad needed his son's help in translating Elvish language. That was hilarious because it mentioned Frodo versus Luke Skywalker and that Frodo can defeat Luke Skywalker with the one ring. Futurama is also great!!!!Roswell That Ends Well is the best episode next to The Deep South.

To Jo, Colin Firth is staring in a new movie called The Last Legion. It's being produce right now but it sounds cool. The leading actress in that movie looks very exotic. I am not sure if you heard of her but her name is Aishwarya Rai. She is from India. Cannot wait to see the movie.

so, THIS is medicinal, huh?

Had me some of the best weed on earth on Saturday, compliments of my roommate who somehow or other got his hands on some medicinal pot from a canabis club.

Altho the supreme court is filled with douchies who care nothing for the terminally ill, there are still canabis clubs in California, tho they prolly won't be above ground for much longer. It's a shame, since I'm now fully convinced that cannabis clubs have the greatest pot in all the world--pot that is fully worthy of being prescribed to the terminally ill.

It really pisses me off, actually, that people with chronic pain won't have easy access to this anymore. Granted, I'm a pot smoker, so I'm not an unbiased opinion on the whole medical marijuana thing, but honestly, wouldn't you want any and every drug in the world at your disposal if you were dying of a painful incurable illness? It just seems so stupid to me that there isn't some way of regulating marijuana as a medicine for people with terminal diseases. Give them a permit or something!

As for me, I'd be more than happy to reserve all the good pot for those who need it most. and if I get caught w/ pot and don't have a permit, that's my own fault right? But for Christs sake, leave the terminally ill alone.

Sorry Bri...Your care package will make up for this

So.....anyone in the Madison area want to go see the Decemberists with me on October 20???? It's at the Orpheum. I don't know how much tickets are, but I can find out. If you want to hear the music let me know...I have some. Or run into me on the street and you can rock out to it on my sweet new mp3 player.

Anyway......let me know. Decemberists....ROCK!!!

the only one

i am the only one on this blog who is not obsessed with anime~

but i read korean and japanese comic books... does that count?

just wishing

i wish there was a Click for Paper! button i could push(similar to sari's click for anime link below), and POOF!!, my paper which is due tomorrow would magically and wonderously materialize in front of me.

hmmmm......let's try it......







Damn.

well, it was worth a shot.

It is over

Finally, my football dream has come true. I have been saying this for years now, Favre is no longer the same quarterback who can win you games. He can only lose them for you. Even though I despise him with a passion like all true Bear fans, I feel bad for the #4 because I see a once great quarterback, pla;ying well past his prime. A few years ago, one of the best athletes of all-time (yes, I know it is hard to believe that there is a better athlete than Favre) tried to do the same in a sport, where high schoolers can make millions before they even step onto the court and the result, well you guys should ask the Chicago sports writers about their feelings toward His Airness.

If I am a Packer fan, which I am not, I would lobby for Aaron Rogers Era to begin as soon as possible. The Packers must find out whether this kid is the real deal or else, the quarter search will go on forever (like a certain 1st place football team I know and love dearly). It is time for change.

Anime "auction"

I cross-posted this to my nerd blog. The link is in the title. Click it if you want my anime. I'm giving it to whomever gives me the best reason I should give them a series as opposed to someone else.

Don't worry...I'm retaining copies of my own. But on DVD! Thanks to my newest friend Adam!! He rocks my socks!

Click for anime!

Keepin me on my toes I guess

So.....interesting Friday night. Which is kinda sad considering that I didn't actually end up doing anything at all. I wanted to. I was all set to go to the fashion show/Screaming Cyn Cyn show at the Slipper Club with Bito when she got done with work. And so...it's roughly 9:30, I'm in my house waiting for Bito to call me back, and my phone rings. So....I answer it. And it ISN'T Bito. It's Adam (this being the guy I went on my afforementioned date with). Ok...so he had agreed that we would call one another if we weren't doing anything. And at that point in time I wasn't. I figured either he was calling me to tell me where he was going or he was calling to say he had nothing to do. Either way, I thought I'd probably still end up at the show with Bito. WRONG. What does he say?? "Are you home?" Me: "Yes" Him: "Good cause I'm outside." Me: "WHAT?!?!?!?!?!" Yeah....so that was fun. People dropping by. My house is pretty messy since he last saw it too. And I was nowhere near being ready to look presentable to go out. I quick put on another shirt and brushed my teeth.....good thing I looked halfway decent already. Man. But....I got a DVD burner, I can now archive HUGE amounts of anime (which consequently means that the "book o nerd" is up for distribution if any of you want to claim a particular series out of it), AND I got to spend my Friday night in computer teching, laughing a lot, and cuddling on the bed with a rather adorable boy.

All in all.....not bad. And Bito....we'll go see Screaming Cyn Cyn next time they're playing....they've been playing a lot lately.
