amusements galore

if you've heard of the Frog in a Blender game, this is where you can find it. if you haven't heard of it, it's worth it. mindless amusement. there are quite a few other amusements there as well. check it out.

romper room

what is *up* with the 'for sheezee' shiznit? (note: that site is for ...mature... audiences. not that i ever claimed to be mature, but be aware. and for god's sake, turn the speakers down if you're at work!)

beautiful neighbor

bumped into my next door neighbor tonight. haven't seen all that much of him in a while; things weren't going well for him on the home front. cops stopped by many times for domestic disputes.

but things have calmed down. and tonight he apologized profusely. in his broken English and my non-existent Brazilian Portugese, we still managed to have a nice conversation. i told him i was glad things had calmed down, and that he didn't need to apologize. and he told me i was a beautiful neighbor.

a Panamanian hooker with a gun and a grudge

sometimes, you just don't want to know that much about your local law enforcement officer.

and today's idiot moment...

i took my sunglasses off when i got back in the building, and put them on top of my head for momentary safekeeping.

they're clip ons.

good reads with a twist

with topics like 'The 10 books most likely to impress me on a potential paramour's shelves', these are not your average book lists. they're more fun.

the black hole in my closet

if you every need to conceal sensitive documents, i'm your girl. because apparently there is a black hole in my closet. i've torn the damn thing apart three times tonight, looking for the one black dress i want to wear on my date tomorrow. and it isn't there.

you know what the sad part is? i'll find it next week.

so i'm all sorts of fucked off. even called the ex to see if it was still over there. nope.

oh. and? that movie that i still haven't returned? the one day rental a week late? i figured i'd watch it to cheer myself up.

the tape is unwatchable. as in, not a bad movie, just a trashed tape. isn't that just the kicker?

if you see my black dress wandering the streets, tell it to come home. i miss it.

truly, i am easily amused.

and all it takes is a dancing ant shakin' his groove booty to James Brown.

aw, yeah. :)

just got a surprise visit from sweetie, who is feeling *much* better. couldn't wipe the smile off my face; just sat there beaming and happy.

DEAF, or just not listening?

according to TheSpark, i'm a performer. yes, i'm well aware of the humor. but it's actually pretty accurate.

Dominant Extrovert Abstract Feeler

Like just 6% of the population you are a PERFORMER (DEAF)--personable, self-assured, and excellent under pressure. You are extroverted and strong-willed, which in combination means you are good with people and aren't willing to let opportunity pass you by. Congratulations. I'm sure all the peons you've stepped on never saw it coming and didn't feel a thing.

You like being naked.

Anyhow, you have formidable creative talents, and you often follow what your heart tells you instead of your logical mind. Your exuberance can earn you many friends and admirers, despite your ambition, or it can intimidate the less confident into keeping their distance. It's also possible you're Madonna.

because it feels good when you stop, that's why.

why do i insist on torturing myself by revisiting old wounds? it doesn't do me any good. just makes me crazy. gah.

it would have been cheaper to go to the theatre.

there's a video rental sitting on my couch. i've had it for, oh, 5 days now. at this rate, i should just buy the damn thing. and i *still* haven't seen it. as sonia pointed out, for this kind of money, the movie should wine me, dine me, bring me flowers, and fuck me.

Stolen, and Other Moments

isn't that a great title for an album? they've been playing a lot of cuts off it on the jazz show tonight. and i'm rather taken with the title.

i'm a happy girl. :)

got a call from our receptionist, asking if it was my birthday, which seemed like sort of an odd question until she told me why. there's now a lovely vase of dusky pink and lavender flowers sitting on my desk. i don't know if anyone's ever done that for me before. makes me feel pampered. yay!

your moment of Zen:
