strawberry fields forever

ok. i know i have been lacking in the posting. but after the week from hell, i hope things will get back to normal. but i do need to share this with all you BSG nuggets. 

i wore this to a party at a friends house, it was a pirate vs ninja party.

subject is lyric from the beatle's song. "i want to hold your hand"

so, here i sit again with my glass of wine and beatlesradio.com on. i am in love with this bottle of wine, i would like to buy some more, but i ... can't. it's a whole whopping $8...and i can't afford another bottle. ah well, comic con is next week.

yes! comic con right around the corner..i am very excited about this. i'll be there on saturday, trying to see all i can see! BSG panel is the main attraction, but with many others to see! eureka is number 2 on the list! it's my first experience with comic con.

in my pursuit to watch a new movie every week, this week i watched "ill do anything" it was...different. the beginning...was odd. the storyline was kinda unclear and weird! than there was alot of over acting... like ALOT. than..the rest was surprisingly good. alots of little (but amazing) 90's actors. rosie o'donnell played a very small part, the little girl in it was amazing..i don't know if i would recommend it, but if's on and you have free time i would say go for it!

i was thinking today....so yea, the things i say when i am drunk, should probably stay in my  head. i have made a new...aquaintance. and have seen this person a couple times while intoxicated. and oh man, don't people forget! i swear this person forgets nothing! and insists on bringing it up later! this person has done it...at least 3 times. and it isn't ... bad stuff....just ackward..ya no? ahh, oh well.

i was hoping to ..get out of the house tonight. and do something creative. but i don't think it's going to happen. i am probably going to end up with this glass of wine, eureka than a on demand movie. oh well, such is life. i need a weekend to myself anyway!

... I have to answers to few questions. And I tagged 8 people because I want a revenge it is the rule

Rules

A) People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves.

B) Tag eight people to do this quiz and those who are tagged cannot refuse. These people must state who they were tagged by and cannot tag the person whom they were tagged by. Continue this game by sending it to other people.

so, i have noticed i am in quite a chatty mood tonight. so, i thought i would post a blog! i am currently sitting with a glass of wine and beatlesradio.com on! what to talk about hmmm..... well, i have decided to always title my blogs with a lyric. this one is from the song "hey jude" by the beatles.

pride and prejudice. so, i am re-reading the classic novel, that is pride and prejudice. i am very excited about it. everytime i see a commerical for the jane austen book club.. i want to read ALL of jane austen. so, i am reading pride and prejudice because i know the storyline very well. i have seen both the BBC and keira knightly verison of it, and have read the book. so, i am training my mind to think in the "old english way" so i can start perusaion.

i am in love with public transportion. it's the one and only thing i miss from NYC. and i have now firgured out i can take it to work! this...made my day. i am going to be saving a tremous amount of money! be able to relax more because i am not dealing with crazy LA drivers. and read more. i encountered the oddest thing on the train today. mind you, i am coming from a NYC public transportion mind set (crammed trains, no one talks, everyone is rude, etc...) people had like..train buddies. everyone was friends! and they met...on the train! this to me...was very strange. also, there was a *gasp* a friendly conductor! it was so forgien to me! also, weird, did you know...LA public transportation...works on the honor system! like...where else do you find that in the country?

flipping out. so, has anyone seen the TV flipping out? i love it. i love jeff lewis, i would love to work for him. but i said and thought to myself, why do i love this show? it's not something i am interested in, the story...really isn't that intense to keep you entralled. i realized in this last episode it's because...i am a verison of jeff lewis. me and him, yeaaa. he is a muchhh more intense verison of me. or should i say i am a verison of him. yes, i am a verison of him. it's crazy! i continue to watch the show week in and week out..and love it! it's a must see!

project runway. ok, who saw the project runway premiere the other night? seriously? what happened to "this is a show to make it"? all the designers on there are professionals! in the past there have been a few that have been working designers. like jeremy, last season's winner. but this season it's ALL professionals, it's so frustrating. they are killing it for people who have a desire to design..but can't make it happen money wise. it just...makes me sick. please, people leave it for the people that need it!

so i made the executive decision..in MY life. (i am THE executive!) that i am no longer eating meat. i will continue to eat fish (i am sorry, i can not give up seafood, it's my love!) but, i didn't even notice for the past couple of weeks, i haven't been eating it...just because. so, i am going to continue doing it. it's something i have always wanted to do, but never thought i had the willpower too! but now that i realized i was doing it without knowing it..might as well keep it up!

so, wow, i felt like i have written nothing at all...but it seems from the letters on my computer...it's a book! i have also decided it the midst of writing this, i don't like myspace blogs. so, i now have a place..for personal blogs. most of them a cross posted. but there are some i like..only for there...and there are ALOT i like for only here.!

i just HAVE to pimp this out. 

 

 As I could not get the internet in the airport waiting for my plane, I wrote this litte thing about the weekend, it's not the full recap, but its here!

Here I sit about to embark on the worse sugar high of my life. Why is it that the only place that offers a respectable breakfast at 5:30 est, is dunkin donuts? Like seriously, after dunking donuts, I walked by auntie aunts, and mrs fields, than a place that offered questionable food. So, here I sit eating my two donuts, wallowing in myself. And cringing at the time on my computer as I never took it off PST (2:54am!).  Last night, sleep was just not. I was finally starting to get tired about 11:30pm EST, but when I stopped talking online and went to go to bed, my brain went on overload. I had met Katee Sackhoff, like in the flesh. I kept overanalyzing what I did, what I said, what everything! (I just turned my iTunes to Black Market, this could go down hill from here) So, yea, back to not being able to sleep because of Katee. She does this to me too much, I need sleep! But in a little recaplet of the day, (as I am sure a full one will come later with the help of Swim), emotions were high, it was such a mix of feelings. I was happy, sad, concerned, estatic, overjoyed, and a whole lot of other emotions. I got to meet a fellow spanker, and Katee! It quite the little trip. A weekend trip to Philadelphia, returning with bagels to schmooze by bosses, for the fact that they allowed me to come in to work at noon (yes, I am walking off the flight than going to work, I am such as ass), than when I go into request more days off in August, this should be fun. But I mean I have the days, I don’t know why I feel bad, I just do. I mean, why can’t I take time to do things I enjoy? Just because my whole department are workholics, doesn’t mean I have to be, it just makes me feel horrible. So back to why I a schmoozing by bosses, besides the ones stated above, I also look like hell, probably smell like beer, and forgot to have people cover like half my work for this Morning. So, I have so major ass kissing to do. So, I diverge again, back to not sleeping, I tossed and turned for a while, recalling every single second of the day, and attempting to think of ways to in improve upon this. Yes, it was my finest hour, I was standing in the convention center, in a white sun dress, and heels. While people walked to next to me in Space Trooper costumes. I swear, I had a guy in like this weird roman costume try and look up my skirt, because he was all “in character” and like slid up next to me on his knees. I quickly moved, scared out of my mind of this guy. Than as the day went on, we saw superman, spiderman, princess leia (in the gold bikini nonetheless), a whole lot of things from star wars that I didn’t know, a shiny man, etc. And swarms of others in homemade costumes such as BSG flight suits, BSG tanks and cargos, darth maul face paintings, etc. It was quite interesting. So after meeting Katee, it was too much, so we went for some group therapy. Yes, the beer garden is where we went to drink ourselves to confidence. We actually meet a guy, who was there into BSG, but not even going to the Con. (He did comment that my hair he noticed, before I said anything, that it look like Starbuck Season 3 hair…yes! Mission accomplished!, this is def a highlight for me) After awhile we decided to go back to the con to see Katee off. Well, she wasn’t there, and was able to get through that whole line in no time! So, we lurked on the side, just lurking. Not close of course, because we respect Katee too much. We wanted to say bye, and one last picture, but she truly looked like she was in a hurry, and we didn’t want to bother her, so we watched from afar, as good little fans. Than  she was whisked off to plane to go somewhere probably faboulos, which shoots all hope I had of Katee being on my flight back from Los Angeles. But I can’t have my cake and eat it too. Just like that, she was gone, I quickly started plotting my next move. When would they release the guest list for Comic Con? Is Dragon*Con possible? Gods, where I am going to get the money?? But I think it will be all worth it, no matter what I do, as BSG is almost over, and Katee is no longer doing Cons (after some upcoming ones), so it’s not like I would be broke forever to keep going. It would only be for like another, not even, a year. So I think I could handle that, mentally. I’ll be rubbing two pennies together for awhile, if I do. I had an ex boyfriend who’s motto was “Live life before it lives you” I think that’s a very good motto to go by. Hey, if anything i’ll have good stories, for my kids (well, maybe nieces). I mean, I can’t sit on my ass never taking trips, or experiencing anything because of work or money. I know I have to write myself an interesting story in life. And I am not going to be able to do it, sitting on my ass, doing nothing.

 

So, all in all, my first memory of a convention was a positive one. Which makes me happy to no end. It was an amazing time. Actually ran into a family friend at the Beer Garden! She was attending the con, as well. Not for Katee, but for the actual con (how novel!). So, it was great to see her, I feel bad in my half drunken state and my Katee high, I forgot to say by to her. I will be writing her a nice long e-mail of “I am sorry!! I was caught up in the moment”.

So I find myself at a hault, of what to say. So i think i am all wrapped and sure i will collobrate with swim on some wonderful recap!

i am spending it, watching like a zillions marathons, going to the gym, cleaning (only a bit), and prepping lunches/snacks for the week.

wow, what an interesting memorial day.

so, everyone go check the weather for Los Angeles, CA. yea, frakking rain. yea, the weekend to "kick off summer" and rain, rain, rain. i moved to california, for the lack of the seasons. when it rains all i want to do is, curl up on my coach, and watch tv, or be online. this is seriously, the only thing i can do on rainy day.

so on a lighter note (if i can get one today). i am getting excited for wizard world. and maybe a little excited to go home. (only a little) katee sackhoff, if you cancel, you own me 100$ plus, the money for sitting through the whole last sentinel. but other than that. i am really excited to get a starby/ks/swim picture. (hopefully). maxi's blog on the HQ, is quite amusing, i am kinda in love with it.

yea, so i went to my trainer today, and preceeded to get yelled at for my food. ok, the only bad thing i eat day is lunch, and i eat it at noon! seriously, other than that, i only eat fresh fruits, vegetables, maybe a little avocado and pita bread. after, we almost reduced me to tears. i pulled out the big guns, and i dont normally like to pull out the "woe is me" card. but i had to, i finally reminded him of my hypoglemica. than, he shut up. like dude! he knew about it too, he just likes to forget. so, than he felt bad and is going to "do some research" on good things that i like, that i can eat for lunch.

so, yea i think i might go and get a movie from blockbuster, if only i could find the movies that were sent, that would be good. oui. guess it's golden girls all day for me. with some max bickford, as well.

two spanks hit the road in persuit of wizard world, philadelphia. yes, a con. you heard me right. in hopes, of seeing katee sackhoff in the flesh. it has been said that we might destroy the time continutiom, that is team spank. i don't agree. i think it will enrich it.

so, in a week and 1/2 i will be on a plane to philadelphia. to seek out katee sackhoff in the flesh.
