other news...
I'm taking my first real break from everything right now, so I figured I would just post something.
It's Thanksgiving break, but of course there is no real break for me.
How did everyone spend their Thanksgiving? It seems no one's really posting or talking about it.
Me?
I didn't really do much except do homework, which I'm still struggling
on. It's still all a learning experience and my mistakes I'm trying not
to get me down, but sometimes I have to admit it's frustrating. I feel
like I understand what I'm trying to do but there's these little blips
that turn everything around. At times I wonder if this is really the
life for me? The hardest part of course is remembering what I was doing
before (painting/illustrating fine arts) and honestly I see myself
doing this for the rest of my life, but its hard to convince yourself
that you are right when you're having so much difficulty, but that's
the test.
I think I've changed my mind about where I want to be
afterwards and I'm highly considering a move to New York. I love what
they're doing there, I'm just afraid of the process and not to mention
the cost and living arrangements. But deciding now gives me time to really
prepare for it all.

a Break is a BreakupLite
I know I've written a while back about how taking breaks in a relationship is healthy because it gives you time apart to just chill. But from experience I can say that I truly think if you need a break, the relationship is pretty much over. Yeah I know, it's not the easiest thing to hear, I've been there. It's better than cheating for sure. Unless of course you both agree to see other people during the break. That whole thing is iffy. Breaks are just mini break-ups that will eventually lead to real one.
They're just a way of saying "I don't know if I can be without you, and I don't want to jump the gun and break up with you yet." I think whatever the problem that you're having, if you can't solve it within like three or four days, you have communication issues and it's not going to resolve itself just by having time apart from each other. Usually you come back from the break and one or both of you will realize that "Hey being by myself wasn't so bad." Of course it could also result in you realizing that you really do want to stay together and live happily ever after but that's rare. You probably agree to stay together because being alone sucked and you ignore the problem that made you take a break in the first place.

FatCHICKSSS
You know what I've noticed also? Fat chicks looove getting their nails and toenails done. Do you really need to spend 30 bucks to get a french manicure on your fat toes? NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR FUCKING TOES. I know, I know. It makes you feel good, attractive even, and it's an easy fix for your self esteem. It's also easier than getting on a treadmill. These fat chicks will do EVERYTHING to improve their looks, like spend mad money on hair products and make-up, piercings, etc everything except lose weight. I should be thanking these chicks anyway, without them my relatives would be out of a job.

Political time.
i'm really confused, and i want to learn more. i tend to think that sandra day o'connor's decision to step down from the bench is a selfish one, but perhaps i think that the family is something forfeit to the good of the law, and that's unfair. i think that roe v. wade has the potential to be recontested. i'm going to mourn sandra's critical and intelligent swing vote. i hated the way bush masked roberts' strict constructionism like it was a part of his credentials. i worry about the relationship between roberts (clerk) and rhenquist (justice). i think the way charles schumer from new york toed the line between frustrated with the nomination and deference was totally unsuccessful. i really don't know anything. i liked scalia and have the preconception that john roberts is a poor choice. i want to be a justice now more than ever. that's all i have right now.
I got bored can you blamed me? I read the article.

From somethingawful (psst it's satire people):
Ew, are you seriously gonna drink that, man? Do you know what's in that crap? Your precious Diet Coke is more like DIE COKE because that junk will kill you faster than I can rotate the jog wheel on my U2 Limited Edition iPod. You know the main ingredient in Diet Coke? It's aspartame, a chemical which liquefies your internal organs and turns into embalming fluid after it's exposed to oxygen. Seriously man, these scientists did a study where they carbonated some aspartame and then the H20 molecules caused tiny detonations which converted the artificial sweetener into hydrochloric acid, and then it exploded and blew the head off a nun and some crippled orphans. Then all the cola totally irradiated the ground for like six decades, man.
It's completely 100% true, I heard about this on some radio show talking about a website that interviewed a guy who knew a doctor. It's totally true, man. 20 years from now, when half of the world is dead and rotting from drinking diet cola, I'll be there laughing at you all, standing on a pile of your corpses and shouting, "GUESS YOU SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO ME!" at all your dead bodies.

Solicitors
If you try to sell me something, don't say I am wasting your time or hanging up on me. This morning, I got a call from a telemarketer promoting some club discount memberships. The lady wouldn't accept a no. I knew I should have just hung up on her, but I've worked in a customer service call center before. So I know how it feels when someone hangs up on me.
After five minutes, she still couldn’t persuade me. So she transfers me to a manager. I thought she was putting me on hold to get a number for me to call her back. The manager tried to convince me that it's a great deal, and blah, blah, blah. "Just think about it when you get the package. I don't want to waste time." I was like, "What? If you..." CLICK! He hung up before I can finish. He knew he pushed my button.
What a jerk, and supposedly he's a manager. Talk about bad customer service. And guess what? I can’t believe it, but that same lady called me back two hours later asking for me. They don't give up.
They've called me twice or maybe more since their number is listed as private. Isn't that against the law? Also, the first call was kind of fishy. They asked me about my credit card information.
Btw... is there an area code 911? I don't think there is, but only for emergency. I've been getting a lot of unknown calls from that area code and no one has left a message.

| People are asking me what I think about Bush's latest Supreme Court nominee, John Roberts. The truth is, there are some things I pay a lot of attention to and keep up on, and some I don't. Supreme Court nominations are not something I get all into and shit, so that's why I don't usually write about them. I know, it's important shit, but I just don't get excited about it. I'll let Ezra do my dirty work:
Liberals need to be careful how they play this one. As we begin this battle, a few facts should be kept in mind. First and foremost, President Bush will nominate and the Senate will confirm a conservative judge. As McCain says, elections have consequences, and this is one of them. If we somehow shut down the Senate and force Bush to pick a different candidate, the replacement will also be conservative. There is no possible outcome where Roberts is replaced by a liberal, or even a moderate. Without a majority, we're just not going to get an agreeable judge.
So the question, on Roberts, is how to lose. One way or the other, we will lose, all that matters is how we look while we flame out. And the first rule there is that we shouldn't look like a bunch of rabid ideologues begging for a battle. We should want to confirm this judge. We should. We should hope Bush has nominated someone easily confirmable, who will spend the next few decades blessing the Court with enlightened jurisprudence. If and when facts come out that say otherwise, we should reluctantly, sadly admit them into the analysis. And when the vote finally comes due, after his opinions are well known and our thoughts on those opinions are widely broadcast, we should vote no and lose well.
Read the rest ... And that's pretty much how I feel about it. Look, we have a conservative president. Of course he's going to nominate conservatives to the Supreme Court—what do you expect? If Democrats want to nominate liberals to the Supreme Court, they need to start winning some fucking elections. For better or for worse, that's how it works.
So basically, ask all the relevant questions about Roberts. You're not gonna like some of the answers. But unless he's a Total Evil Fucking Bastard™—which he doesn't appear to be—then just confirm him, move on, and devote your energy to some fights that you have a chance of making some progress on.
People have complained that this is going to "conveniently" take attention away from the Plame/Wilson/Rove situation. Exactly. So don't take your eye off the prize and rant and rave about Roberts then, dumbasses.
That's all I'm going to say about the Supreme Court. | | |
| Life is beautiful, indeed. I am very much in a euphoric state of being. However, I really hope it doesn't go away. I'm taking things in a much slower pace-- or at least trying to. I do not want to be that party girl. People look at me and presume things. Oh, she's a going to be a bartender, drinks like a man and parties like crazy. For a time, I actually enjoyed this truth and now I stand back to view myself from a different perspective and realize this isn't me. I was that girl that didn't like clubs. I would rather spend my free time staying home lounging, going to parks, museums, shows, watching foreign films and eating out alot. I love culinary art and right now, I can't remember when the last time it has been since I had gone to a really nice place to eat. It's always that 24 hour French restaurant or Cafeteria or Pop Diner after a night out. As for things in the prospective man status... I'm dating around at a slower pace. Dating guys around and randomly seems like I'm saving time but the rate I'm going is much much slower. But recently realize Travis someone I've know for a while now, and in my perspective, and not to have my hopes up but I actually can see myself with this guy in the future. However, not to get hopes to high I should always have backups. I remember saying how I wanted my ladylike vageener back and to stop treating men like they're meat and they're all my lil bitches and just see one at a time.. but I really don't want to be in disappointment if this one falls apart and I turned down all the other guys over it. What a waste. This past week I had been havin the time of my life--even after the full week of bliss from Travis. Let's get back to the other guys in my life. After I was supposed to see Travis friday night, which fell through by the way.. I was bummed. Then, Saturday I hung out with my coworker Courtney , an UCSF student who moved here from Ohio. She's actually very hot in person. Anyway, I met up with her at her apartment which is two blocks from our job. There was a very cute man, Daniel, she's dating there who she met here in NYC but he's coincidentally from Ohio. Anyway, we hung out at Marquee with Court's roomie Gino and Daniel's friends and his IDENTICAL TWIN, Derek.
We went to Zoo Lounge afterwards and I had sooo much fun. There was these two major black queens who were like professional dancers and one of them asides from dancing with the other men, he'd go and freak me. Funny funny gay man. I think it was my outfit that turned him straight but anyway back to Derek. Derek is this very stylish in between hipster/metro type of man. Very tall, thinner than the other men but very lean. At the end of the night, we ended up back at Court's apt and poor Gino watched me get snatched away from him at Marquee by Derek. So, Courtney has this loft bed and high ceilings in her bedroom and underneath is her computer desk with bookshelves and closet space. That's where Derek and I was, while Court was up on top with Daniel. It was pretty funny both of us getting it on with two twins. Except I didn't do much with Derek We just basically layed next to each other and almost fell asleep. We ended up leaving Courts room because it was getting a little too noisy on Court's bed hhahahha. It was uncomfortable hearin those noises and you aren't part taking in it hahaha I'm so just kidding on that comment! HAHa So back to the little couch in the living room, with no AC.. could not sleep. We headed to Derek's apt with a bigger bed and blasting cold AC. No, I didnt do anything but spoon. He had work in the mornin and let me stay there alone til whenever I wanted. We promised to see each other but I don't know.. he has a big fallback which would be ummm that he's this bigtime SF promoter along with his twin brother. He's a lil sketchy maybe even flakey, being the busy popular man he is. Don't have a pic of Derek yet. Don't worry you'll get one soon.
Ronnie D'Ambrosio. Italian. 24. lives on his own nearby me. grew up in Westchester moved to Cali for college, and stayed ever since... very much different from my judgement of him on the first day we met. We met a few weeks back, even before I met Derek. I totally forgot about how goodlooking he was because I had gotten caught up with Mr Derek and Travis. Besides, he doesn't look as genuine and innocent. I thought ohh this dude is probably a typical man with a fratboy lifestyle and gets girls like crazy. I can't even believe I caught his eye.. I was with my hot coworker Angela when we met and he didnt even give her a second look. I wondered why. We saw each other again this Saturday at a get together in this ridiculously beautiful apartment in Embarcadero. unbelievable. Anyway, there I grew alot of respect for him because he didn't try to do anything sleazy to me. We didnt even kiss and we just talked for hours. He isn't a phone person but lastnight (before I hung out with Kyon, I'll get to this later) we spoke for hours. He had plenty of wrong presumptions about me too and each time we learn new things about each other, the more I'm interested in him. He's sooooo unlike what he seems to be. He's in the middle of investing in a condo.. He draws.. has his artsy architectural side. He's very insightful and reads lots and lots of books. Get this, he doesn't smoke (which I might have a problem with) lol jk, doesn't do drugs and only drinks occassionally. He's even Vegetarian. He isn't even into clubs. To me, he looks like a total shallow meathead, but I guess I'm wrong. I'm willing to give this guy plenty of my time even just as much as Travis. Only downfall I guess is that he has a busy schedule and he's a day guy..only has weekends free. Likes to stay home for the rest of the week after work. Also, he told me that he didnt even pay attention to Angela because although he's attracted to older women and she's older than me, he said that she has a very young mind.. even by the way she talks. -shrug- He says that he and I have an old soul. Well, we do seem to have alot in common. I want to actually date this guy and take it nice & slow.
Remember the Colombian guy Kyon. Well, his little flakey ass had managed to come back in the picture when he surprised me and suddenly popped in my job in the city. He's all the way in Brentwood and never ventures out to the City so that was a big deal. Anyway, we had a little date lastnight after he got off of work. I guess I can give him another chance, we'll have to see about that. Surfer beach boy, Chase mortgage banker, lives on his own...
There is one guy left. I recently, and to be honest I met him through Myspace. Mike, a metro, a real shy very cute guy. Into real estate, and very educated guy. We kind of hang out a couple of times. He's chinese. A few people in here even know him. I've probably blown him off twice already and one reason is he calls out of the blue for something happening that day or that night. Being spontaneous is great I guess but not when I'm out with Travis or whatever. He did ask me if I wanna go to a broadway show so I said yes and gave him my days off to choose from. Ehh I hate to give people chances when I'm not even interested but he seems like a nice guy and I don't want to be a hypocrite cause I believe in giving people chances... but really it's because of the free dinner. HAHA jk. not really. Plus, he's from New Jersey. Ugh how much I hate Jersey. You would have to be absolutely wonderful to have me venture into that territory and overlook the fact that it is in fact another state.
soooo... what do you think?
