Lost Stuff

I was reading about the drunken-I'm-indepndent-don't-tell-me-what-to-do life of Ana-Lucia Rodriguez, and I saw this link to an old (Oct. 2005) Lost story. Doesn't she know he's got a problem with heroin? Plus he's always scheming with con-men to steal guns and drag Asian women through the jungle. Plus, he's a hobbit. I would think that she could do way better. He's got to be the least attractive person on the island. That includes Bernard and the bearded guy (and even Ethan, who looked pretty freaky).

Some might say I'm confusing the "real world" with the imaginary world of Lost. But I have no reason to believe Lost isn't real. What with the smoke monsters and murderous pack of crash survivors, and hatches and so forth.

Seriously though, gals, would you date a guy who looks like this? He kind of looks Semi-Down-syndromey, if you ask me.

Now before you say anything, I realize this is just stupid "entertainment gossip." I've said it before and I'll say it again, this is what you get when the board dies down, crappy crappy content. But for those of us who aren't Leanne, this might be at least a little interesting.

man, this party died fast

sooooo, do you... Myspace? i do and Death Cab for Cutie is my friend!


also, your thoughts on todd's new rabbit...

old school

so this is a picture i took of my roommate Aryan- lives on the 2nd floor... me and him and Chun were in my room and i was like... wow... i'm so messed up from this leg thing that i cant even wear half my clothes anymore so i gave him some shorts and some t-shirts... we ran across one t-shirt that i had never worn. Its the one that Josh and Jesse made me in Undergrad- i think it was junior year- and i was scared to wear it in public because i thought people would make fun of me... but aryan thinks its funny and isnt scared to wear it- so he's gonna wear it to shcool tomorrow... also i got those shorts about a year and a half ago as a present, but they are 33 waist- the tighest pants i own and i dont think i'll ever be able to make it back to that this lifetime... so i figured its either give them to aryan or goodwill... and i know aryan better... Holla 

Happy Bunny Day!

Enjoy your candy/mass/church, etc.

My mom is holding my Easter basket hostage until I come home in May. Wench.

Both sides are never right, right?

ha.

I read THIS article recently and thought it pertinent.
What do you all think? I had no idea remittance was such a big deal.


p.s. Josh got his synthesizer today--I tried to wipe that smile off his face, but could not. Also pictured, our neighbor Todd(aka ToddII).

Jobtastic!

(i must)


Fix the link if you must!

Top ten jobs in America right now.... Scootie B. has #9.

gotta see this...

exhibit A:
leprechaun news segment from mobile AL

exhibit B:
music video based on the news report

exhibit C:
see picture at top- its a T-shirt design


this could be one of the funniest things i've seen in alooong time... this is great. I credit my brother Todd with the discovery- i'm just the messenger passing on the good word.

Make sure you wath the entire news cast (maybe 2 minutes tops) and then watch the music video made from it... its just great stuff...

Attention Losties (Leanne, you can ignore this)

Interesting news:

Lost to be offered online

I'm happy (I'm sure iTunes isn't)... but do you think this is the future of television? Personally, I think it's overdue. I expected to see this stuff years ago.

Pulling Up the Ladder....

Today in Houston there are HUGE demonstrations against the new immigration bills. Literally, I am watching thousands of people marching downtown right now past the city hall and courthouse. What are everyone's ideas on this? Are there any big protests in Memphis, Nashville? I know Colorado has a very significant Latino/a population... any action up there? In St. Louis? Alabama?

Just curious... gimme your opinions, of course while observing HG's "Rules of Internet Conduct" (bitches, ya'll).

(what it looks like right now)

ok so i've had this facial hair for about 21 months or so... and i'm thinking its about time to cut it...
i need to take this to a vote- tell me what you think. I think it just makes me look kinda old... and i'm tired of looking old. But maybe that would help me seem more credible on my rotations, so i dunno... people definitly seem to listen to what i have to say a lot more now at the pharmacy than before... but i was at my fraternity's formal the other night (i might have some pictures for you later) and i noticed the facial hair was few and far between... maybe that was just a 2004 thing... i dunno... i just feel like i keep looking older, but then again, i guess thats how its supposed to go... something would be wrong if i started looking younger, right... ha...

Bookworming

So, I have re-started my book project. Thus far, I have one complete chapter, a full outline of the other 10-12 chapters, and about 40 pages of loose notes, paragraphs to work in and characters in-the-making.

I am going to try to work you all in (with different names but similar character attributes... though HG still has to be an abbreviation). But, I need approval. If anyone does NOT wish to be a character, express it now. A small publisher has already expressed interest, and I'm not in the business of rewriting complete chapters.

I'll probably mention the group in the chapter where I come home to visit, and we all get together in our usual way. Like I said, speak now... cause I have to print the confirmations out for the publisher eventually.

A brief synopsis: A recent college grad moves to the big city to carve out a life for herself. Life sets in, jobs are hard to find and there are early 20s-style encounters with booze, men and she realizes that life in the city is MUCH less glamourous than "Sex and the City". Tested audiences in my target range have responded well.... so let me know!

Bring It Back

i don't know if any of you (i can guess... 2?) even know who Mates of State is, but we got to see them perform sunday night. it was sweet. their CDs don't do their musical funness any justice.
