What's really good/not so good

Here's what's really good:


- Loofahs. It's a misconception that white people don't use washcloths. I used a washcloth every time I bathed from infancy to high-school, where I switched to loofahs for extra exfoliation.

- A clean apartment. I rest a lot easier when my house is clean. Vacuuming and dish-washing are soothing to my soul.

- A new season of Law & Order: SVU starts tomorrow! Hells yes!!

- Apple cider, mmmmm :) Drinking apple cider reminds me of autumn and October (my birth month) and just makes me feel happy inside. It's an indescribable sensation. And it's friggin delicious.

- Getting excited about Halloween and my seasonally themed zine! If you consider yourself a writer or artist, or if you know any creative people, please consider submitting something to my zine. It's a cool way to get a little exposure and get your shiz published.

- Ghost Adventures is back! I love this show. It's not even a guilty pleasure for me, I proclaim my love for Aaron, Nick and Zac's silly show quite openly. I'm even a fan on Facebook.

Here's what's not so good:

- Weezer. I really used to like this band when I was in high-school, and I still dig their first two albums, but all of the work they've been putting out recently is utter garbage. Their performance on Jay Leno last week is proof of their lack of imagination and inability to write interesting songs (musically and lyrically, their songs are terrible regurgitated pop nonsense) anymore.



- Being sick. I woke up this morning with a throat full of phlegm and an aching body. This sucks. I was sick not too long ago, maybe a couple months back. I blame it on this crazy San Francisco weather.

- Waiting. I mailed my application for an internship at Mother Jones magazine today, and now I must wait. I can only imagine how many other hopefuls' resumes are piling up in their office, waiting to be read, rejected. I can only pray now that a person reads my writing and likes it enough to give me a shot at an interview.

hahaha, I didn't know that it was a thing that white people don't use washcloths... but I don't use them. They creep me out for some reason. I only use them when I wash my face at the sink, never in the shower.
I also have newcastle in my fridge and can't wait for apple cider season! Chilly weather and hot apple cider = bliss.
aaaaaannnnnndddd, RIGHT?! what ever happened to OLD weezer?!

Christina In Wonderland said...

First of all, YES, to everything on your good list. Just hell yes.

Secondly, as a former Weezer fan, I'm very disappointed in Cuomo. I expect better from someone who graduated from Harvard. Weezer has depressed me in this last album. The red album was tolerable. I own it, and like several songs, but whatever they've come out with now, I'm like... meh.

If you like doing dishes... can you come do mine??

I'm having a stand-off with the boyfriend - I did dishes before I went away on Friday - he did them while I was away, and somehow he thinks it's my turn again... I'm so the right one, so I'm not doing them!

I may need to go get some Apple Cider ASAP!

Thanks for making me excited for October and Halloween! I really love October. It's a great month!

Good luck getting that internship!

Hahahahaha! "misconception that white people don't use washcloths"! That's hilarious. I have heard this before. But who needs those stinky rags when you can use a loofah?! It's what I use every day and my skin is super soft, so I guess some black ppl don't use washcloths either - lol.

I agree w/ you about Weezer too. I hate when musicians try to hard. It makes me lose all respect for them.

Megan (Best of Fates) said...

That ducky is adorable - thank goodness there's an officer guarding your loofah!

Only in dreams was the anthem of my childhood.

Mary @ stylefyles said...

Hey there! Glad to have you by!

I am very sad to inform you that I am not a natural redhead....do you think if I dye it enough it will just change on it's own?

Nice blog, lady. Hope you swing back over to mine or find me @ stylefyles on twitter!

Annabelle said...

I am extremely intimidated by THAT particular style of loofah... along with the Pedegg. What are we trying to do here, take a shower or grate parmesan? Jesus.

Danaconda said...

Feel better yo.

Blue album and Pinkerton fucking rule. Pinkerton is in my top 10 best albums of all-time. Totally hear you on the Weezer thing.

P.S. I made a retraction...good lookin' out and good luck with the internship ;)

Jamie said...

Fingers crossed on the internship!

I was thinking of you while watching Ghost Adventures today. When they go to the Rolling Hills Sanitarium, they cut in a shot of a guy pulling a fly off of a window and eating it with some "num num" noises.
