Catalogs & Maple Syrup

I'm on somebody's fucking mailing list because I'm getting catalogs left and right in the mail. Unless Ali has decided to start sending me crazy shit in the mail again? Anyway, I am flipping through the L.L. Bean catalog and there was the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen, they are selling maple syrup. Get this....16oz = $16.50, a quart = $19.50 and the half gallon = $39.50....wtf? for syrup? Who would pay that?

Tired (Random Thought) Tuesday (*updated)

So last night was interesting, I felt like ass and really really wanted to go to bed, but I made it through. I'm not the only one that felt like shit....Ali, Nick and Charlie are sick too. Super.

I haven't been watching tv in the last few days, I know it's shocking. But hey, my DVR is only sitting at 83% capacity. Who am I kidding, I'll never catch up. I just watched Prison Break from last night, damn the cliffhanger. Grey's Anatomy from Sunday, broken penis' suck. I also cried through the last 5 minutes of LOST from last week, I think I need some sleep.

We apparently haven't been posting regularly enough on FFIS. Our friends at the bar gave us shit last night for being 3 weeks behind. We're working on it, we're working on it. ***There are 4 new posts up on FFIS ... ha I told ya!***

I just turned the heat on in my apartment for the first time this season, I've been living in an icebox for weeks. The kitties are happy.

I'm eating Thanksgiving dinner again for the 6th day in a row, but it's my favorite meal in the world so.....I'm good.

It's official, Wentworth Miller has taken over Joshua Smith's spot for top referrer to my site. Like you all care.

Darts

So Paul, Roger, Ali and I decided (because we're crazy) to join a dart league on Monday nights. Good thing it's the last episode of Prison Break, I don't know if I could have handled that.
Tonight's the first night and the same group we hang out with on FunDay is the same group playing darts on Monday. Soooo, I guess it's FunDay squared. Talk to you all tomorrow.

Live Trivia Proof

Here is the photographic evidence I promised.

Could I look any less thrilled to be up there? The girl next to me chain smoked the whole game.

The only answer I got right in that round was a question about fans protesting a cancelled UPN show. The answer was 'Enterprise.' Weird huh? I so should have let Ali win the first round and then I wouldn't have had to play again.

Unicorns Are Scary? Never


<----This is Nick....he's a unicorn. He was adopted because one of our friends (which we will leave unnamed, to protect his identity) had a fear of unicorns when he was younger. He says he had bad dreams about them, but only when he was sick. Does he look like he would hurt anyone? So after hours of giving him our unnamed friend hard time, Ali and I thought we would adopt Nick and show our friend how harmless they really are. They were all rainbows and fun when we were kids. Here is the semi-bad news...Nick is a virtual pet and requires feeding and education. We fear this may be difficult to maintain, but we will keep you updated.

Nobody Will Believe It!
(Until We Post Photographic Evidence)

Ali & I actually played live trivia last night. Not the live trivia where you get a team and hand in answers on a sheet of paper, but live trivia, like on a stage (one on one) with podiums and microphones. The only reason we got up there is because all the 'regulars' at our bar weren't there, and the crazy part is....I won my group. I was playing against Ali and 'Roxanne', the extremely drunk girl who couldn't formulate a sentence. (I personally think Ali should have won) So after I won Ali decided to run home and get the camera. Couldn't miss this blogging opportunity.

LOST Quiz

Almost.
You scored 87% accuracy!
Practice makes perfect and you're very close to the top. Maybe you've missed an episode or didn't catch what Locke's theory of the week is, but a little bit more dedication and you'll be to the addict level.

I so thought I would do better than this.....did anyone else take the quiz? I would love to know what you scored.

Yummy! (Wentworth Miller)

Since it's the second to the last episode of 'Prison Break,' I thought I would show some love for a non-creepy actor from the show. Helllooo Wentworth Miller! (aka Michael Scofield) I really just want to show pictures because I'm ridiculously tired from FunDay, and want to get in bed. Enjoy!
PS He has two different colored eyes, and you can see him in the Mariah Carey video on my sidebar --->

Fun Day!

Hey Everyone it's officially Fun Day! (Remember Charlie and Nick renamed it) I thought it would be FUN to post some videos on my side bar -----> (scoll down) I thought you might want to know what I listen to..... and instead of posting pictures of albums, I thought videos would be more interesting. It's just a small sampling of my crazy music taste. Give them a minute to load and Have a good day!!

Hellloooo Harry Potter

Anyone who knows me, knows I am not a Harry Potter fan. I have seen the other 3 movies and did not enjoy them. So when Ali asked me to go with her to see Goblet of Fire on opening night, I thought she was crazy. She explained she needed me to help her save seats for the other people that were going. We picked up the tickets, ran next door to Chili's had a beer and then ran back to the theater to get in line by 5:00. We were the 7th and 8th people in line. Scary huh? We played cards for a while and then when they started seating we ran in to save 8 seats. I sat at one end and Ali sat at the other with coats and purses covering the other 6. I have never heard so many people bitch about saved seats. We were the most hated people in that theater at 6:45 when there were no good seats left. It was kinda comical. Kinda like the fact that the lady that sat next to Ali passed gas through the whole movie. ha ha! So here is the shocker. I actually liked this movie. It was really good. The best part of the movie was when Harry Potter took off his shirt and the lady sitting behind us said, in a totally perverted tone, "hellloooo Harry Potter!" Hilarious.

Warning: Post #101 is Bitchy

OK, I'm gonna be bitchy for a minute, I KNOW there are more than 4 people that read my blog. So why haven't you all put a pin in the freakin map?? Thanks to Janet, Todd, Kris and Paul, who took time to do it. I'm very disappointed! Hey first time readers, you can place one too.

Now click here to tell me where you are.

Anyway, Happy Friday....I'm going to see Harry Potter tonight!

100th Post / LOST Info

I just realized this is my 100th post. YEAH me!

I thought I would post some interesting facts about LOST.

Last week, a wet Walt appeared again on Lost. Before Shannon was shot, he spoke unintelligibly to her. But when Walt's words are played backwards, is he saying: "They're coming, and they're close"

4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42 — have all been retired by the New York Yankees, worn by Lou Gehrig, Yogi Berra/Bill Dickey, Thurman Munson, Whitey Ford, Don Mattingly and Jackie Robinson, respectively. (Of course, that doesn't account for 3, 5, 37 and 44 — Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio, Casey Stengel and Reggie Jackson — among others.)

108=
* It's the number of stitches on a major-league baseball
* It's approximately the number of minutes some satellites take to circle Earth
* It's a sacred number in Buddhism; a prayer strand traditionally has 108 beads. (This ties into the name of the mysterious island project, the Dharma Initiative.)

You should take the Lost Quiz! Let me know how you do.

Mystery Solved

The mystery has been solved!! My phone rang again last night at 2:27 am & 2:28 am, I finally answered it and the voice on the other end of the phone said: 'who is this?' I then said 'no, who is this?' It is someone I know and haven't heard from in a while. He did actually think he was calling another Jess, so I that made me feel super. There is nothing like someone waking you up in the middle of the night thinking they are calling someone else. Then he said the obligatory, you should call me sometime. When I explained I didn't have his number because it comes up as restricted, he said he would give it to me, but there was no way I was getting out of bed. I guess its better that I know who it is instead of the annoying late night mystery caller.

The Shampoo Effect

We have this theory when it comes to drinking 2 or more nights in a row. It's known as the 'Shampoo Effect.' Ever notice when you wash your hair twice you need much less shampoo the second time? That's pretty much what happens when you drink multiple nights in a row. This weekend was a triple shampoo effect weekend. Not intentionally, it just sorta happened. Yesterday's 'Fun Day' dart extravaganza was definitely the highlight of the weekend. (Nick and Charlie have renamed Sunday, it will now be known as Fun Day!)

Seatbelt Bag

My mom came back from a business trip last week with this bag in tow, she rocks. I love my new purse, and nobody can beat a purse that can hold 5,000 lbs of crap. It's practically indestructible. You should check out the website for prices and color choices. (I got the medium red one)

Joshua Smith

Last night Ali and I went for drinks and look who we ran into. That's right folks, Joshua Smith from Filthy Rich Cattle Drive on E! We had met him at Butter and Harris' house after the 3rd scavenger hunt. But since he brings a lot of hits to my website, based on this post from 3 months ago, we thought it would be funny to take a picture.

Map It

I stole this idea from Boozie, but I think it's really fun. I would love it if everyone would place a pin where they are. Come on you know you want to do it. Click here!! Who's gonna be the first???

Way to go Janet for being the first. YEAH!!!

I Don't Understand.....Part Deux

Someone keeps calling me in the middle of the freakin night!!! Ugh!
I say 'someone' because whoever it is calls me from a restricted number. Last night it was at 2:35am and Monday it was at 3:53am and then they waited and called back at 3:41am. WTF? If you want to talk to me at 2 and 4 in the morning here are a couple of tips:
a. dont call me at 2 and 4 in the morning, try a normal day time
b. call from a number I know
c. leave a message if I don't answer

Once again, its not that hard to figure out. And I wanna know who wants to talk to me so badly at that time of the night!

I Don't Understand

I was driving home tonight in freakin' shitty ass traffic, which I usually miss because I normally leave work at 3:30. I am singing to myself, yes I do that, and I look over to see a fairly attractive man in the car next to me. He smiles at me. huh, that never happens. He then starts 'car flirting!' You know, he looks at me, I look at him, he smiles, I smile, he looks away and then back, I do the same. He is not being subtle. Has this happened to any of you? I then see the slight glimmer of his wedding ring and then notice the damn 'Winnie the Pooh' sun shade suction cupped to the back window. Ugh!

There won't be an installment of LOST Wednesday today, I don't feel like talking about it tonight. Maybe we'll recap tomorrow.

PS.... I just watched an hour long program on 'paint' on the history channel. Paint, what the hell was I thinking? Paint isn't really that interesting....at all.

I Heart Prison Break (*UPDATED)

I love this show, and everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I love 'T-bag.' I of course think he's creepy on the show, but he's a really good actor. (and he actually looks normal in real life) He has also been on Carnivale, West Wing and ER. If you're at all interested you can read his bio/filmography here. We will talk about how much more I love Wentworth Miller another time.


*Ok, let me clarify. I don't love the character he plays on the show. 'T-bag' is a freaky, creepy, controlling sociopath. I like that the actor (Robert Knepper) that plays him and he does such a good job. I like that the character of 'T-bag' upsets everyone every week. It makes him interesting.

Boobie Wall In All It's Glory

Random Shitty Sunday

1. I was hoping I would never have to write the infamous "If you don't like what I blog about, don't read it" post. So, I'm not going to dedicate an entire post to it, but apparently there are ASSHOLES out there that think they should tell me what to do and/or say. Thanks, but I've been doing just fine since I started this blog 3 months ago. I blog for fun, and guess what? YOU DON"T HAVE TO READ IT!!! Move on. I appreciate the people who read my blog for what it is. Thanks guys.

2. Don't worry everyone, I won't be lonely for long. Last night at the bar this 50ish year old cowboy told us (Ali, Nicolle and I) not to worry about not having any husbands right now but that some guys would come into our lives soon, and then we wouldn't be lonely anymore. I'm sorry, who said I was lonely? And who asked your opinion? I've been doing just fine without a man. (I'd like one, but don't need one) Yes, it's been irking me since last night.

3. I woke up this morning with an UTI. Just freaking great. Damn they suck.

How do I go from a kick ass Saturday to a shitty Sunday? hell if I know. It's par for the course.

Best Saturday Morning Ever....

So Ali and I met for free breakfast at Village Inn this morning. Why free? you ask. Well, because they weren't officially open and they were training their employees. Our waiter actually asked us if we would like some pie while we were waiting for our breakfast. Who does that?

Anyway, we were driving home and Ali notices something "special" at the grocery store! We drove all the way to Ali's to get the camera so we could get drive back and get some pictures.... (you can't beat free breakfast and the wienermobile in one morning, it's just not possible)

There are a couple more pics at FFIS

My Humps

I copied this story from Duane's blog (the boobs are mine)....and I'm with him on this one....
A woman invented this? (Where ya at guys?) Brilliant!


Designer creates wall of breasts

A Dutch designer has created a wall of fake breasts to help male shoppers buy bras that fit their wives or girlfriends.
Wendy Rameckers works at the Piet Zwart Institute for Retail and Design in Rotterdam, reports Het Nieuwsblad.
"Most men have a selective memory," she explained. "They know all about their car, but never seem to know their wife's bra size.
"When trying to buy a sexy bra for their wife or girlfriend, usually they point to other women in the shop or, when asked about size, they say a 'handful'."
The wall consists of rows of silicon breasts in all sizes. By look and touch, male shoppers can work out the right size, she says.

Honestly......I would be shocked if a guy could buy me a bra after fondling the boob wall. I would think he would get too distracted or confused and settle on buying me a sleep shirt instead, no sizing needed.

I'm So Spoiled

I'm really tired tonight, thanks to the slew of "Halloween beers" I had last night. So here I am laying in bed with my laptop trying to watch Bones and House on FOX. (I'm soooo excited they're back on) I'm so spoiled because I have picked up my remote at least 6 times trying to fast forward through the commercials. Damn the commercials! I have just realized I can't watch live TV. It's killing me. Also, to anyone who watches House....I heart Ron Livingston.
