life imitates art, or the other way around

and by art i mean bad reality tv.

my life has been consumed lately by foreign men and brawls at parties, and not in a glamorous sexy way.

The following sentence has actually become a part of my reality:
"sometimes its just too early for me to be seeing naked Italians in our apartment."

step touch my way online

so today i was preordering my tickets the hsm 3 premiere tonight, and fandango movie tickets asked me "do you want us to post this purchase on your facebook page so all your friends can know?"

thats stupid, no. i don't want all my friends to know....i'd rather have my good friends read about it on my blog. stupid.

so here goes, the end of an era. i've got my wildcats tshirt on, my zac efron bracelet on, and i'm ready to purchas a new ringtone.

get ready for a dance along.

the cold wars over...

so i got to spend this weekend playing in northern mn with friends, family, and other peoples children. it was mucho fun, except when it wasn't, but i learned the best way to get over a good cry is to dance it out w/ hanson and a soul train.

and i got to learn about Jesus and the gospel of troy, first chapter, third verse, "here and now, its time for celebration, we're gonna rock the house, yeaaaaaah..."
great dancing folks. see you soon.

where's edward?

i'm pretty sure the most recent episode of true blood just scared me into lifelong virginity. its this show on hbo about vampires which i thought i was into now except that its terrifying. Its is disgusting and captivating in such a way that I'm sickened by it but i can't look away.

in the most recent episode sookie was having sex w/ her delicious (not meant to be a joke) vampire Bill. while she was laying back and thinking of England, she told Bill to bite her. and he did. and there was a lot of blood. i didn't like it.

here's to celibacy.

political efficacy is sooo in.

so lately there have been a lot of inspirational celebrity videos telling you to vote because your voice needs to be heard blah blah blah blah....

i love them. they combine my love for politics w/ my love for celebrity gossip and pretty people. seriously they are wonderful. there's the will.i.am song "yes we can" and "obama." There's the "five friends" video that makes a joke out of it and where leo dicaprio looks especially sexy.

and my favorite so far is at www.youvote.org with not only the entire cast of gossip girl but also some ex cast members from the west wing. it combines my petty love of scandal and gossip with my true calling to public service and political affairs.

raindrops and whiskers and lattes

I have a new favorite place to study and listen to death cab or hanson: the starbucks and the corner of belden and orchard. the reasons are as follows.
1) Its close enough to campus to walk there comfortably but far enough to not be full of students.
2) Its right by some irish pub sports bar thing so when the white sox score or when they suck, I can hear the middle aged men cheer or cry.
3) There is a beautiful view of the big brownstones on Belden with vines overgrowth and bmw's parked in front.
4) There is a tunnel of tree cover that is currently turning beautiful shades of yellow, red and brown.
5) There is an outside patio with lots of cute birds and squirrels who don't judge me for bringing coffee from home like those silly starbuck employees do. They especially like it when i share my muffin crumbs with them.
