Signs

Aurora just left. James has D&D night and Brandon’s out, so us girls escaped to do something very girlie. We had garlicky and cheesy pizza and wine and watched Dreamgirls and that clip of Jake Gyllenhaal’s SNL intro and we chat about stuff. Next thing we know, it was 10 p.m. Oh, and my god that Jennifer Hudson! What a voice! Good lawd! Seriously! She’s just AWESOME in this movie, totally deserves an Oscar. “Listen” is my favorite song. Anyways. After Aurora left, I came here to finish my daily blog reading. On Thai-Blogs a few days ago, Steve Suphan...

What a girl to do

So I have saved some money I can spend on things for ME. Should I… A) Buy a plane ticket to Oregon and go see Cheech, my gay boyfriend, over Labor Day? After all, I have never really been to Oregon. B) Buy myself a massage. And few other little things. Like knee-high platform combat boots. Other Emily the Strange things. Or just go raid Hot Topic for some work clothes. C) Buy a new CAMERA phone. I want this one…but I don’t see any US carrier has these. You can buy it but which phone company do I use?...

Pray for another mom

Guys. Please help us pray for Justin’s mom Toni. She is in and out of the ICU at Long Beach Memorial Hospital at the moment. Justin is Brandon’s best friend. His wife, the lovely Olaina blogged about the entire story here first, then here (2), here (3) and here (4). Justin is SUPERMAN. Seriously. His mom has been ailing for sometimes. Justin is the foot amputee Marine veteran currently in 3rd year medical school whose wife has been hospitalized in the past few years and is still adjusting. And he still keeps going. Seriously. If he’s not Superman, I don’t...

Is that a hole in the back of my head?

A 5 foot tall, 100 lbs. not-ugly and somewhat in shape Asian in a strapless flower-printed A-line knee length dress waltzing into a Babies-R-Us filled with moms to be and moms who haven’t quite lost their baby weight yet was probably a bad idea. I never felt so hated in my life! The death stares and fiery glare probably left some heat damage on my new salon cut hair. Yeah. I think I might have just asked for it a little bit too much there. Heh. (Why was I in a pretty pink dress prancing through a baby store? Well,...

A quick sniff at the roses

The Crazy Train has slowed down considerably since last week. Still 2 projects to get to the printer, but the pressure is considerably less. A little bit of a breather is always appreciated, I’d say. Yesterday, somehow I managed to have Brandon go with me to Babies R Us to shop for a coworker’s upcoming baby shower. Well, it wasn’t really a shopping trip but picking up an item I called in to have put on hold. While we were waiting in line, we heard this raucous from the baby picture studio.  What the hell is going on in there?...
