New Years!



So how excited am I for Martis' New Years party! It is going to be great. I got the light up hats, the cool glow in the dark bracelets for the dance party, and I am getting my pajamas ready because Martis said no one was allowed in if they did not have pj's on. The best part about it all is that we get to go to Martis' house. I love that place. There is always fun stuff to play with. This years toy of the evening I am sure, will be the Wii. This is especially true because she now has Wii Fit and I want to know what it says about me.

tax the sugar - that will get 'em!



I think that it is absolutely crazy that there are people in NY that want to tax sugared drinks to cut the obesity rates. Have they ever thought of taking some of the tax dollars that they make on the crazy high tax rate they have to offer nutritional assistance or exercise programs to people? Call me crazy, but I am pretty sure that adding a bit of tax may not so much make fat people want to buy a diet soda instead.

Really? A shoe?

Who throws a shoe at a US President? Idiots. In my opinion, if you are going to throw something at someone, at least pick an object that will make a mess such as a pie or dog poo!

My very own Shaggin' Wagon!

So while I was stuck at the same light through 3 cycles, I was looking around for something to amuse me. I found it. Look at this beauty! I think that I should trade in the Honda on this one. That way I could pack all my friends, and the dogs and go on a big road trip somehwhere warm!

I want it!

Ironically, I was just talking about working out again because I am not so happy with my body appearance as of late. It’s called Core Precision, and it makes you look like you have a six-pack. Slight problem may be if I actually get naked and then the truth comes out - no washboard abs.

Happy Turkey Day!


So happy for the good food. There will be so many people for Thanksgiving dinner - it is just crazy! Love the family gatherings when I come to Buffalo. It will be quite the site - my mom and my aunts cooking all day - probably making enough food to feed 200 when we really only need 25 or so. It will be packed full and I am not just talking about the house.

Back to the B-Low!

So I today I packed up the car, grabbed the dogs and headed up to Buffalo. I fully expected the annual crappy drive with lots of snow and to be stuck in the car for at least 4 hours. Not so much the case today. Yeah! It took my normal 3 hours to get into town and then bam! I was here. I love coming home. Especially when there is family and food involved. Like tonight for instance. My brother came over with my nephews and we had some awesome pizza and wings Love it!

Friday, November 21, 2008

Yuck!

Hence the reason it took me over an hour to get home from work. I am not such a big fan of this snow crap. I can't believe that I grew up in Buffalo and was ever used to seeing it.

Love my CrackBerry!



I am so addicted. Now I understand. I can do everything with this phone. I am so glad that I got it. I can surf the web, send an e-mail, blackberry message my b.b. hommies, and talk on the phone too. In less than 24 hours I have become addicted to this thing. Now I totally understand how Obama is going to have a hard time giving this thing up when he goes into the White House.

Cook for me mama

Oh how I want Paula to come to my house and cook for me. How awesome would that be. Trust me, I love my sister's cooking, but I would never turn down the chance to eat anything that Paula made. I am smelling a road trip to GA. How much fun would that be.

Fun Winter Toy



How much fun is this? I kind of want one. We never had these cool toys when I was growing up. We had to use our imagination and burrow in the snow to make a fort. This one just blows up and BAM! Instant snow fort.

Christina Shuts it Down!



How much do I love the fact that Yang pulled a Rachael Zoe moment and shut it down!

BuBye Fish Face

I am so happy that Erica is now gone from Grey's. Although, I am a bit sad to see the bitch of the cast be gone. Secretly I liked her.

I want this



I want this vest. On the back, it says Truth, Valor, Honor. I want it!
Found it at Express

B-low Style




I just want to let everyone know that if you have never had a loganberry drink or if you have never attended a Chivetta's chicken BBQ, you are missing out on some of the best of Buffalo. I cannot wait to go home for Thanksgiving so that I can stock up on some more of this. I love it. But then again I love food in general.

PostSecret


I have come to know and love PostSecret. I look forward to reading each week. I love making up stories about what the people must be like. Being the big nerd that I am, I added them to my myspace. Yes - admitting it is the first step. I was also looking at old PostSecrets entries and I found this one. I totally reminds me of Cleveland. Everyday when I leave work, I just want to drive through all the orange cones and drive right on to 77. Someday I will get to do that, but today was not that day.

Sunday, November 9, 2008

Yuck!


Maybe its the weather, maybe it is that I am tired, who knows, but I feel really down today. I feel like I have nothing good going for me. I feel like I am ready to just give up, lock the door to my house, and go somewhere else (preferably warm) to just start over. I think that I have come to the conclusion that I am just not where I want to be in life. I feel almost like I have failed in something, even though I don't know what yet. Now, I am not one of those crazy people that would ever think of ending it all because in my mind nothing can be that bad. Just my little disclosure. Anyway, I feel like I need a change. Sometimes I feel very alone even though I am surrounded by great people.

Maybe I just need a change. Or maybe I need to start eating breakfast and using this sweet toaster that I found here. That might make my day better.

Beware of the Pugs!

Do you think this will scare off anyone if they know I have 2 pugs who just want to get as much attention as possible?

Love the pudding

It is a very good thing that I like chocolate pudding because that is about all I have been eating for the past 2 days. That and the really good chicken soup that my sister made for me. I am so happy that my teeth are finally out, but I will be even more happy when the soreness goes away.

Stupid Alarm Clock


What kind of crazy ass alarm clock is this? If you don't get up the thing goes crazy doing wheelies around your room. Now how the hell am I supposed to hit the snooze button if the thing is all the way across the room and acting like a drunk monkey on crack?

Sordid Lives



Lets just say that this week seems to be a long one and all I wanted to do was come home, drink a beer and watch my new favorite show - The Sordid Lives. Why did it have to be a repeat tonight? I just wanted to see what happens next.

Pimp Daddy Mac

I wish that I could be as cool as the tool who pulled up to the Ritz in this land yacht.

Yes We Can!

That is right folks - yes we can. After watching Obama last night, I for the first time in a while, felt good about being an American. I feel like this is the change that we need to start the turn around process. My favorite part of his speech was when his daughters we interacting with Biden's grand daughter. I loved it. The innocence of youth at its best.

Obama for yo mama!


I totally want this t-shirt.

Boo



Doesn't this place look beautiful? It is Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. That is where I was supposed to be this week. Guess what - I am still here in Cleveland, while my insignificant other is there enjoying the sun. I am not even bitter about that. What I am bitter about is that he did not tell me that he was going until Friday night. He left today and is not coming back until next Monday. Must be nice.

I found a new store!




So I found this new store tonight. It is called the Flower Factory, but don't let that fool you. It has way more than just flowers AND it is organzied. Two of my favorite items that I found there are the sign that states "Confidence is the feeling you have before you understand the situation" and the nifty toilet paper holder. The sign - I love it. Kind of reminds me of life in general. The toilet paper holder, I just like it. I wish I had a cooler half bath - I would totally put it in there.

New Shower mat


What a fun shower mat is this? I like that.
Found here

The Snuggie


I think that I am going to buy these and keep them in my house. That way I can turn the heat down. Who cares if we all look like monks, right?

Kind of like it

So I saw this while perusing and I think that I like it.

From Etsy

Bathroom Etiquette

OK so it never seems to fail. I go into the end stall with no one in the bathroom mind you, and there is always someone who sits in the stall next to you. Do they not know bathroom etiquette? This may fly in a woman's restroom, but not in the guys especially when there is a free stall that is 1 more away - plus that stall offers the security of being another end unit with a real wall.
For those of you who are not so aware of such rules, please read below.
Here is a little reading material from Ask Men
And for some humor - try this article Bathroom Etiquette in the Cube Farm

Roadies!



So today I borrowed my sisters car to go to work. She has just come back from NY and brought back her old dorm fridge to let her freind borrow while at school. It is still in the car. When asked why I had a dorm fridge in the car, my answer was simply to keep the roadies cold for the drive home.

Pug Soap?



So not only can I play with my real life pugs, I can also wash up with them - Bonus!

Scented with a clean woodsy-floral fragrance, this cutie is accurate from its facial expression to its curl-a-que tail. Packaged in a colorful polka-dot and striped gift box and tied with a uniquely stitched grosgrain bow.

Feel the comfort!

So, not to sound perverted, but this one is self explanatory. While enjoying my weekly stroll through Target with Martis and Joey, I stumbled upon these nice folding chairs. You just have to read the description and it will let you know. Now if I could wear a sticker that says this, I am sure that I would get slapped with a sexual harassment charge so fast, but these people get away with it as a "marketing ploy" They may be perverts, but I want to be their friend.

Pure-Formance


So I must say that I am excited about the new Pure-Formance mens line from Aveda.

I am a big fan of the new gel. I did get to sample this stuff and I liked it. Until just a minute ago, I did not realize how much I liked it. I turned around in my chair and got a good whiff of Aveda. I love that smell. I also like the look of the product packaging. Good job Aveda - Keep up the good work!

YIKES!

So - here is the best of irony in action. Today, I saw this woman heading back up to the office, shopping bags in hand, and as always, I am nosey wanting to see where she shopped. Now she was in no way, shape, or form and attractive individual. Why was the big bag that she had from MAC? I sure hope that they started selling miracle products there.
Now that I am thinking about this, I sound mean and shallow. So to make myself feel better about it, I have made up the following scenario about this random stranger. She was trying to go for the grunge look today to be incognito so that her deranged stalker would not follow her today. Then her daughter, who is a stripper at the Crazy Horse, called and asked her to pick up her weekly order at MAC so that she can put on her "good" performance tonight. See, she has to make the good tip money tonight because she wants to take her 2 year old child to Chuck - E - Cheese tomorrow to spend some quality time because she has been spending more of her time trying to become a country singer rather than with her child.
OK - now I just think that I am on crack. Please excuse me.

MISMATCHED SOCKS


Who in their right mind would pay $18 for a pair of mismatched socks? This just does not fly with the OCD guy. Look at that - I just made a rhyme in my fury over these stupid socks. Now do not confuse that with the fact that I DO love the Uncommon Goods site, but I am not a big fan of these by any means.

Brrr!


So, why did I feel like I had to dress up like Randy from A Christmas Story just to take the dogs out this morning. Not a happy camper about this cold thing. I guess that is what I get for living in NE Ohio.

Fried Chicken Snacks


So where in the world does one get Fried Chicken snacks. I bet that would be a big hit in my hood.

I have a date!



That is right - I totally have a date - with my couch - on 11/25/08. So excited that the girls will be back in my living room! I love the Housewives of the OC.

Welcome

This one goes out to Martis! I only wish that my blog can ever be as sweet as your is!

I LOVE me some coffee


So we all know that I LOVE me some coffee. My good friend Suzanne got me the best gift ever - a new coffee mug. After coveting her awesome mug for a few months or so, she got me one of my own. I cannot wait to use it tomorrow. I love it - not to mention the fact that its wording describes me like it was a specially made, one of a kind mug for just me.
