Phototastic Friday: Halloween Edition

It’s more than photos. It’s everything! First. My costume for the office.  Killer Rabbit from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.  Yes, I do have the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch on my person…just not showing her on the pic. Next. Thanks to Kuri, the scariest music. Ever. I mean, I’m stressed out listening to the first 10 minutes.  Have to clense that out with Thriller Krazy.

Who’s Zombie Now?

I am. Usual system crash. Super Zombie Saturday took all out of me. Speaking of which, our official video is up now.  Plus most of the major media coverage listing. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgBW_NUwj4c] That’s all the energy I have to do today.  I’m HORRIBLE for not having been updating stuff on this blog and my other ones. But hey, it’s not easy being a Princess Leia Zombie.  😉 P.S. StarWars.com Blog did an interview with me.  And Anderson Cooper talked about TTWLA.  This whole thing is off the fuckin’ hook!...

Also on KTLA 5 for a blip, however I don’t know where that lady got her 10,000 number from. It’s not even in the press release! And here’s the brainchild of Mahdroo and Ines...

You Talk Pretty

A Much Loved Coworker was showing a visitor our office when she stopped by Nhien’s office to look out the window.  It was one of those days when LA was gloomy and hazy. MLC told the visitor, “Usually, Nhien has the best view here. But today it’s kind of skanky out.” We all nodded. “Wait. MLC, did you just say the weather is skanky?” “Yeah. It’s all icky out there.  Why?” “Sweetie, I don’t think skanky means what you think it means any more these days.” “It’s not?” * MLC and another coworker dude huddled at my cubicle to vent. ...

War on Normal

I don’t recall exactly the details of the conversation but I caught the new coworker looking at me funny. “It’s okay. I’m weird, I know,” I told her. “Oh, no, no.  You’re not weird,” she sputtered. “Oh, no.  It’s okay. I’m okay with weird.  I embrace the weird.  You’re not insulting me.” “No.  I didn’t mean you’re weird.  You’re not weird.”  The girl was still trying. “Sweetie. It’s okay. I would be offended if you think I’m normal,” I ensured her.  “Because normal is fucking boring.” I think the cowroker was a little startled at the F bomb, but she’ll...
