A couple years ago, I certain song was brought to my attention. Since then, I haven't heard it and it was lost in the *cavernous caves of my carnivorous brain. And today, I woke up early to play a little City of Heroes (DOUBLE XP WEEKEND) but the servers went down! So I had to do something else! I started making a mix for a friend. As I was making it, I recalled I time when I listened to a certain song. I immediatly **downloaded it. This song, ladies and gentlemen, is fantastic.
Here it is:
"I Love You, Baby" by Brak (from Space Ghost)!
That's the song! If you haven't heard it, you should. You could always wait until I get married to hear it, because it may very well be my wedding song. Unless I dont invite you, then you are just out of ***luck.
So Congratulations, "I Love You, Baby"! You are The Song of the Middle of the Month! YEAH!
It has been almost a month since I last posted! What! So much has been happening.
In the most recent of news, I am truly (madly, deeply) thinking about applying to work at Disneyworld! Yeah! As a character! Hopefully! My friend (Can I call him that? Is someone your friend after hanging out with them for the past couple days? I guess so!) Dave works at Disneyworld as Aladdin (!!!) and he has been telling me how great it is to work there etc. I am getting really convinced too. It couldn't hurt to work there for a year, could it? With that said, here is the main point of today's blog:
WHICH DISNEY CHARACTER AM I NOT?
To thoroughly determine this, I am consulting the pre-teens at Quizilla.com
1.According to "7amood"'s quiz, I got Chip and Dale. What 7amood fails to realize is that I am NOT plural. Scratch off Chip and Dale.
2. "Dragonslayerofevil" put me through a horrible quiz. My outcome was Jasmine. Yeah, definitely not. With my palor complexion and nonexistent prayers to Allah? No way, Jose. Sorry Jasmine.
3. I was in the midst of taking "applesrblue"'s quiz when I realized how lame it was. I got Alice from Alice in Wonderland, which is cool because she is awesome, but I don't think I could pull off the blonde hair and big calves. Off with your head, Alice!
4. ROCK! I got Maleficent! AWESOME! But, sadly, I'm not tall enough. I DO have the arched eyebrows, the menacing stare, and the powers of Hell, though. Poop. I still love you, Mals.
Thats it! Now for the final whatsit...
WHICH DISNEY CHARACTER AM I (FOR REAL?)
I got Belle from Beauty and the Beast 6 times out of 10! Go figure; I read alot, I have brown hair, and my BFF is a teacup! CONGRATS TO MEEEE
So exactly three minutes ago, I am on YouTube watching an episode of The Colbert Report and eating leftover chinese when I get an alert on AIM. 'Accept message from SheepCow2'. I clicked yes. This is what I read:
SheepCow2: i saw you on that website. and i wanted to say hi. no real reason. just, hi. me: what website? SheepCow2: wouldyouhit this or whatever, the sesspool of horny guys and conceited fat chicks. me: holy crap.
I didn't believe him so he sent me a link. And here it is.
WHAT??? I have no idea...there is no way...this is unreal. I swear to James Mercer that I did NOT make this profile! Somewhere across the vast plains of the internet wheatfields, I have a stalker. Someone who likes me and wants to know how other people rate me. Someone who liked me when I had black bobbed hair.
I am 85% laughing about this and 12% creeped out the max. And 3% insulted. I mean, come on. 64.25%??? THATS IT?
This is a short post as I am getting things ready to start working on a new painting(!) Update: I have a horrid sinus infection which will result in basically no paycheck this week. The Office was okay-ish yesterday. My favorite parts had Dwight in them (as per usual) Michael: "What is our killer?" Dwight: "Wolves." Michael: "Depression."
Dwight:"RIP A WHOLE IN THE SUNNNN" (while air-guitaring) I started an Etsy store (!) but there is nothing in it yet. I will let you all know as soon as I fill it so you can buy stuff and make me not-so-poor.
Here is a compiled list of all the things that I am obsessed or nearly obsessed with (in no particular order. I think. Wait. Yes.) There is some neat stuff in here, enjoy!
10. TV Links http://tv-links.co.uk/index.do/1 TV Links was brought to my attention from a friend of mine. How did I not know about this website?? It is the perfect web haven for a movie/tv show buff like myself. Any show, any season, any epsiode; just a click away (as well as movies, cartoons, etc). I really shouldn't spend as much time as I do on the internet catching up with my favorite shows (the most favorite of which will be mentioned later) but I can't resist the awesomeness of it. I don't even need a television anymore!
9. Seattle's Best Raspberry syrup Sorry I couldn't find a picture of the actual syrup! My mom got me a bottle of it from the cafe at Borders. She knows how much I love their mochaberry coffees and she also knows how cheap I am. So they sold her a bottle of the coffee syrup they use to make them. This is some heavenly stuff, for sure. I love it. Its great with anything! Coffee, as a pancake topping, hot cocoa, toothpaste, etc. If you can get ahold of this stuff, BUY IT. But only if you like raspberries. If you don't, ship me another bottle ASAP as I am getting low.
8. Drew and Natalie's Video Blogs
Drew and Natalie, the painfully funny web comic writers whose claims to fame include www.toothpastefordinner.com, www.nataliedee.com, and www.marriedtothesea.com star in their very own YouTube-hosted video blogs. I seriously can't get enough of these two. They have some sort of psychological hold on me that makes me watch a 55 second video of one of their pug dogs, Charles, having a licking problem. Or watch Dr. Synthesizer. Or watch Natalie deny being a tree. It doesn't matter. Something about this couple is addicting. I intend to get to the bottom of it sooner or later.
7. The Cupcake Courier http://www.cupcakecourier.com This amazing product came to my attention via Jenna Fischer from my favorite tv show (which I will mention later). Her sister-in-law Jennifer Gunn created the coolest, cutest, and simplest way to transport cupcakes, cakes, etc. I don't know why, but when I saw this product, I immediately had the desire to make dozens of cupcakes! I guess I am easily manipulated? First Drew and Natalie, now the cupcake courier? Regardless, if you know me in person, and you know that my birthday is next month, you should seriously consider getting me the cupcake courier. The blue one. (My birthday is May 23, I know you were wondering)
6. BuyOlympia What Would Devo Do? sticker by Nate Manney Price: $0.99 www.buyolympia.com What I love about BuyOlympia.com is that they have so many neat/cute things for such reasonable prices! I will be going to some baby showers very soon for some friends of mine, and I will definitely be doing my gift shopping on BuyOlympia. You can pretty much find anything on here gift-wise for any occasion. Which rocks! I really like gifts for my friends that aren't so average, and BuyOlympia has the stuff. Don't hesitate! Go look!
5. Brass Octopus Necklace by Amy Shutt (Found at www.day-lab.com) I just love this necklace! I have wanted it for like, two years but it is ALWAYS out of stock! Evidently it is very popular, but now it is in stock and I'm broke like two jokes. Go figure. The reason why I like this necklace so much is that it reminds me of old stories, like "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea." Plus it's weird/cute.
4. The Sneeze: Half Zine. Half Blog. Half Not Good With Fractions. http://www.thesneeze.com/ Q.How often to I go to The Sneeze to check for an update or goof around with the "Freaky Franks" game? A. More often than I check my myspace. And that is A LOT. Steve from The Sneeze can write a great blog and make me laugh for a solid three minutes straight while gasping for air. Lucky for him, he's got a couple of young kids who are endlessly entertaining to write about. A couple of my favorites are "Brainwatch 2003-2004", "Steve, Don't Eat It!", and "Raisins vs. Drum Set." If you need a good laugh, I highly recommend reading Steve's blog.
3. April March http://www.aprilmarch.com/ I recently offered one of my friends a lift in my car. I had a mix cd playing and one of my favorite tracks started playing; "Ma Petit Ami" by April March. My friend looked at me like I had lobsters hanging out of my nose. "What the heck is this?? I knew you listened to some weird stuff, but, what??" WHATS WRONG WITH LIKING FRENCH INDIE POP? I think she's adorable. April March is sickeningly cute, especially with her high-pitched sugary voice in "Chick Habit." If you have strange tastes in music (I'm not talking Nickelback. That is a no-no.) than you will probably like her. (Trivia: She was the principle animator for "The Ren and Stimpy Show.")
2. Chicago I have always wanted to go to Chicago, and now I may be able to live there! I am applying to school there (fingers crossed!) and may be rooming with a friend of mine. Something about the third largest city in the world is just so alluring. Maybe it's the beautiful architecture, or the awesome museums, or the music venues. Something just clicks with that place! I have been searching for apartments already and have a couple in mind. It's a tad expensive to live in Chicago, but I'm sure I can manage. If anyone even reads this, it would be great to read some comments about your experiences in Chicago or any tips you can give me for living there.
AND FINALLY
1. "The Office" http://www.nbc.com/The_Office/ MY FAVORITE EVERYTHING. Really, NBC should be having parties every night to celebrate the sheer awesomeness of this amazing television series. Everything I could ever want in a tv show is found on "The Office." Comedy, Drama, Romance, Comedy, Action, Drama. And Comedy. It's THAT funny and unique. If you have yet to check it out, see #10 on this list and watch a few episodes. Or you can watch clips and bloopers here I could no sooner choose my favorite character than choose a favorite star. or lego piece. or noodle. But I WILL say that Dwight K. Schrute is the best and most interesting character on television by FAR.
Thanks for reading my top ten list! This will probably be updated on a regular basis, so keep a look out for new stuff!
Ohio is the social outcast of the states. Ohio is always picked last in USA gym class. If the states all went to middle school together, Ohio's mother would have had to call it's teachers and explain to them that Ohio is "special" and needed the care of a toddler. Texas and New York would stuff poor nerdy Ohio into lockers while it hyperventilated and checked its pockets for its inhaler. Rhode Island would be the only nice one to it. Only because Rhode Island was the shortest in the class and would get made fun of too. At least this is what I surmised when I left the house this morning for photography class. It was a beautiful spring day yesterday, filled with buttercups and rainbows and kittens. Now if you look out the window, you would think that it was the Apocalypse. I really hate Ohio weather. It's not fair at all! Are Ohioans being punished with a bi-polar mother nature? What did we do?? Don't get me wrong, I love to stick up for the underdog. But when I go out I have to bring a winter coat, an umbrella, a pair of shorts, and sunscreen. That is just ridiculous.
On a completely unrelated topic, Alanis Morissette made a video parody of the ground-breaking song "My Humps" by the Black Eyed Peas.
This is weird to me because I would never imagine Alanis doing something so, I don't know, "Weird-Al-esque." Perhaps this is her first honest attempt at coming out as a full-fledged (dare I say?) Hip Hop artist. To thine own self be true.
