SVU Cliffhanger!

...I don't really mind cliffhangers.

What I mind is when the next new episode DOES NOT CONTINUE TO ANSWER THE CLIFFHANGER! If that makes sense. I'm not going to go into details in case anyone who reads this missed Law & Order SVU and actually wanted to see what happens. Just know...cliffhanger!

Speaking of TV...

Jersey Shore is all over George Lopez this week. I.LOVE.IT!

Jay Leno just blatantly stole the exact same joke George Lopez did last night regarding a morning news broadcasters looking like asses while playing Wii Curling.

That's so lame. C'mon Jay, be original.

Seriously,...why is curling an Olympic sport?? This is the first time I think I've ever actually seen curling...and I saw A LOT of curling this Olympic season. I mean, I understand how to win,...but who decides "Hmm I'm going to give up being a ridiculously good ice skater and become a "Pro Curler". WTH?!

I was REALLY EXCITED to see Nelly Furtado to perform in the Opening Ceremony. She is my favorite favorite singer. No, I am not being sarcastic at all. I had a "Nelly Wall" when I lived at home...details on that coming probably never...unless someone asks...

I am really excited to see Chad Ochocinco on Dancing with the Stars!

I have more TV to talk about, but JERSEY SHORE IS ON JAY LENO!
[I'm such an addict. I know. And I apologize]

TMI #171 & Post It Note Tuesday!


1. What was the last movie you saw in a theater?
Avatar...IMAX 3D!

2. What is your favorite movie theater snack?
Buncha Crunch or peanut M&Ms

3. Have you ever snuck in 'outside' food into a theater?
Yes, I almost always sneak food/ drink in- why pay $5 for a candy that you can buy down the street for $1? Actually during Avatar not only did we sneak in candy, but also beer! The beauty of having a big purse!

4. Have you ever made out in a theater?
Yup
5. What is the 'farthest' you have gone in a theater?
Oral...best. movie. ever!

I am totally sucking at NaBloPoMo already. Darn it.

However, I DID find out that I've passed the probationary 3-month mark at my new(ish) job and can now finally get health/dental insurance and pre-tax commuter card! WHOOOO!

Also, I called to find out the balance on my credit card...totally do-able with this upcoming paycheck!

And, I have been looking into my tax paperwork. I don't understand it all, which gets frustrating, but from what I can see I may be able to apply for 2 different kinds of rebates, which would be freakin sweet!

Just realizing what I've accomplished already this week makes me a little giddy. I'm sure I can reach (most of) those weekly goals. The tax one I am going to *try* to complete, but my tax guy lives kind of far, and if I have to go see him instead of just phone calls and faxes, it may not be feasible to do afterwork,...but Sunday still counts as this week right?!?

Getting to Know You


Another "Getting to Know You" Sunday from Keely!

To play..Grab the questions..copy them..answer them..then come back here and link on up..

The questions..

1. Would you rather bungee jump or sky dive?
Sky Dive...bungee jumping seems more painful with that whiplash thing...but I really want to go sky diving!

2. When using a public restroom to you squat over the seat or sit?
Depends where I am, usually I only hover when it's REALLY gross looking

3. Favorite flower?
Lillies

4. Pedicure or manicure?
I've never had a pedicure, so I'd have to say manicure

5. How many siblings do you have?
0

6. Do you pee in the shower? (gasp!)
I usually try to go before I get in the shower, but i have...

7. Bikini, tankini, or one piece?
Bikini alllll the way

8. Where do you hate to shop at, but go there anyway?
Hmmm I don't think I go anywhere I hate to shop
------------------------------------------------------------

I have been trying to watch the same Law and Order SVU episode for about and hour and a half!

I knocked off another one of my 101 in 1001: I got a MAJOR haircut and color! Cut off abut 8 inches, and got a "glaze" which basically makes your hair extra shiny for about 6 weeks, and got it colored in a deep red- i love it. My hair is very thick and somewhat frizzy, and it was getting unmanageable- even with a new Chi straightener it would take about 2 hours to do my hair- waaaay too long. But now it's shorter and just easier to manage...sooo happy!

Next week I'm going to try to find out how much I owe on one of my credit cards and hopefully pay it off with this week's paycheck--that would be awesome! *fingers crossed!* Also, thanks to some coupon sites/blogs I've been following, and i was able to save $40 in groceries last week!!! Crazy!

Exciting Saturday Night

note the sarcasm.

I'm so freakin bored. I really shouldn'e be so upset though. I mean it can (and has) been much worse. Like I ould be bored and 1. being annoyed by my mother, 2. being annoyed by loud and/or obnoxious roommates, 3. not having cable, internet, and/or a cell phone to connect to the outside world, or 4. being annoyed and smothered by loneliness AND boredom.

so maybe I should be counting my blessings. but I'm not. and FB isn't helping. reading "status updates" of friends who are out dancing, out drinking with friends, making late night cheesecake factory runs. sigh. instead I am home, reading about the fun stuff other people are doing, and being slightly miserable.

it's  my own fault really. Thursday C asked what we were doing this weekend, and when I said nothing, he asked me to find fun stuff to do. so I did. I spent about half day Thursda trying to find fun stuff to do in NJ, NY, and PA...yes, the entire tri-state area. and I found some promising things/ideas....snow tubing, laser shows, AC... but we didn't do any of them, mainly because I didn't push for them. His idea? go see Avatar. which we did (and it was pretty damn amazing). but it was over at 10. the night is still young right? wrong,...apparently. I wanted to go to a club after, I mentioned it half joking, half not. because the only local club is kinda lame. weird people, only somewhat good music, and only somewhat in the mood. wish there was some better options round these parts...in suburbia...then again, I don't think suburbia is exactly interested in having the best clubs this side of NJ. more sigh.

which leaves me here, writing this and drinking beer (only on #2...barely counts, especially on a Saturday), and C getting high, eating Cheetos (puffed, not crunchy), and watching Little Giants. I feel so old.

I miss going out with friends. I miss having (fun) plans instead of going out "obligations." I miss SPONTANEITY and RANDOMNESS. I'm tired of schedules and routines and monotany. I'm officially in a rut. and I'm only 26. ugh.

in other news, a friend of mine had this up as her status update, and I couldn't have said it better myself.
"...struggling to evade the past and fantasies bout the way it COULD be that just won't seem to stop taunting me."

Valentine's Day update soon-ish...

Currently listening to: "In the End" - Linkin Park

Happy President's Day!

SUCH AN AMAZING WEEKEND!!

My two favorite Staten Islanders (yes, I have friends that actually live there) came over on Saturday afternoon for Game Night.

Game Night

with my friend Marissa

are

epic.

It was awesome. Thye are vegan, so we had to get some non-carnivorous snacks at Whole Foods beforehand, but they were actually really good! [Tofu-chicken nuggets taste just like high school cafeteria nuggets...esp when drunk.] We played Apples to Apples, King's Cup, and Power Hour [cd made by Marissa...pretty good]. Yes, it was completely drunken, but so.much.fun. I sorely missed Game Night. We are thinking of hosting anotehr one very soon, and visiting Marissa and Deep [Marissa's bf, real name not Deep, but we can't pronounce it, so Deep he remains] in S.I. sometime in the not too distant future [ though may be a bit longer than they expect, as C has a cat allergy, and they have 2].

In other news, Valentine's Day was also fantastic. One of my biggest complaints is that C doesn't initiate dates. He doesn't plan,...I always have to do the planning if we go out, unless it's with his friends. Well this year, he did.
