This is an actual classified ad:
"OLDS 1999 Intrigue. Totally uncool parents who obviously don't love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for three weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet."
Funny as hell. That's what kids get for being idiots.

Laugh-Out-Loud Funny
My mom sent this to me in an email forward.
I was literally cracking up listening to it.
Highly recommended.

Interactive Movie
Last night, a bunch of us went to a sing-along "Grease" showing.
Wow.
I've never been to one of those before. It was funny as hell. "Grease" is pretty inappropriate at times---again, funny as hell.
Sneaking wine in helped, too. Yum, I don't know what brand it was, but it was a highly palatable Cab. I'd put it on my other blog but that's all I know.

The Miso Report
There is a cat that lives up the street from me. I know his name is Miso because the first time I saw him, he was quite friendly. He was also playful so, even though I did get a chance to look at his tag, I also got batted at with his paw.
Over time, he became more and more aggressive. On one occasion, I was walking with someone and we paused to pet him and Miso actually grabbed at my companion's head. It was funny. There were no claws involved.
He is still friendly; I can tell because he doesn't run away and it's actually like he wants to be near you as you walk by. But as soon as you reach to pet him, he grabs your arm with both paws and pulls your hand to his mouth to bite. There are never claws involved but he literally grabs you so he can bite. He will not allow you to pet him---that is unless you trick him by letting him bite your other hand. I tried this tactic on him just yesterday. I had gloves on which was good because I can tell his biting is also becoming more fierce. Soon, I think he will begin to scratch too.
Strange cat behavior.

Crayons....Eat Them
| You Are a Green Crayon |
 Your world is colored in harmonious, peaceful, natural colors. While some may associate green with money, you are one of the least materialistic people around. Comfort is important to you. You like to feel as relaxed as possible - and you try to make others feel at ease. You're very happy with who you are, and it certainly shows! Your color wheel opposite is red. Every time you feel grounded, a red person does their best to shake you. |
What Color Crayon Are You?
Yeah, no. Not that I don't want to be a green crayon, but that description of me is sort of off. The only thing that is true about it is the being happy with myself part. Also, I would argue that there are a LOT more people around who are less "materialistic" than I am. Or, at least, I don't fib about being such.

Goodbye 2007
With 2007, I am kissing goodbye to expensive dinners. Last night will be the last for quite a while. This is actually one of my resolutions---waste less money on food.
For New Years, three girlfriends and I went to dinner at a local restaurant. They were having some kind of special set-up with a four course meal and a "free" glass of champagne all for a set price.
For the first course, I had an arugula pear salad. It was pretty good. I'd say one would probably pay $7.50 at that particular eatery, or maybe about $5.50 at one of my more regular haunts.
The second course was a butternut squash soup. It was HORRIBLE. It tasted to me as though the chef couldn't decide what it should taste like and simply dumped all the curry in the kitchen into the pot. Never would I imagine butternut squash soup to taste like curry. Had the wait staff been more attentive, they might have asked me why I wasn't eating it. Then perhaps I could have sent it back, or at least somehow had it taken off the bill...
Third course was a petite fillet. I didn't eat it. I had a bite and took the rest to go because by the time at arrived, we had already been at the restaurant for two hours and I was no longer hungry. I'd say a person would pay $20 tops for it in the future.
Then the dessert and champagne came. The fourth course. I can't remember what it was called but it was pretty good. There was some kind of tiny creme boule and a little cake that had the consistency of a Hostess Ding Dong but the flavor of one of those chocolate oranges. I did eat that and had a sip of the drink. I don't think I'd pay more than $5 for the dessert though because it was pretty small.
The total bill just for my portion was enough to buy a nice dinner eight times over. It would buy me lunch 16 times. Therefore, no more spending for me. I'm tapped out. Quite literally. I don't want to bitch or complain because I still had a fun night out with my friends, but I have NEVER paid that much for one meal before and I would certainly have expected better service at the very least for how much the whole thing cost.
