las vegas: day two

February 29, 2008 by Sarah  

i won $57 playing penny slots.  penny slots!  i sat down, put money in, pushed the button (i’m too lazy to pull the arm thing) and then the machine started playing a winning song.  seriously, i know the secrets of winning playing slots.  people say it’s random but it’s not.  i’ve uncovered the way to win.  i’m also really good at roulette.  brian says you can’t be good cause it’s all random but that’s not true.  i think i’m, like, psychic or something.

i also had a pina colada from treasure island.  they’re so good.  tonight i’m going to get a big one in a gigantic red scull mug.  we also got our marriage license, we had to wait in line for about an hour.  they lady kept spelling my name wrong, like it’s hard.  the marriage license is pretty and official looking.

we also had a conversation with a really drunk guy in a bar.  the guy was all over me and now i think brian feels guilty for not punching him in the face.  i thought the whole thing was rather funny.

las vegas: day one

February 28, 2008 by Sarah  

brian and i are in las vegas. clearly, this means that we have to eat at some sort of buffet. they’re everywhere. last night we went to the one at the wynn cause i heard that it’s very vegetarian friendly. it was nice. there was lots of food. lots of it was veggie friendly. while we were sitting and eating i saw the respectable looking lady at the table next to me take all of the massive slabs of prime rib off of her and her children’s plates and stuff them in a ziplock bag that she’d brought from home. she did it all secret-like then shoved the bag filled with meat into her purse. the bag was filled to the top. i couldn’t believe that i saw that. this morning i realized that she made all her kids get some prime rib but they didn’t eat it - holy shit! it was all planned out. brian explained to me that buffets are just a massive sociology experiment. i can see it now. i think i’ll stick to normal restaurants from now on.

oh, brian got ray-ban sunglasses. like the tom cruise in risky business kind. he wanted me to say that.

he also wants me to say: that he got the sunglasses because he forgot his other ones. and that his hair is messy because he just woke up. and that i went to forever 21 and heritage 1980. and that we lost $40 playing penny slots (my game!) and 5 cent slots (too rich for my blood!). oh! and we ate vegan donuts! and our room is really nice, we’re staying at the palazzo. like nicer-than-our-apartment nice. it’s also bigger than our apartment.

Home improvement junkies (and we are not talking Tim Allen here), especially those that are into older homes might want to enjoy this website just like I do: http://www.houseinprogress.net/about.html

Lots of design ideas, hearbreaking mistakes, newbie restoration fumbles and all sorts of stuff that you may or may not want to try yourself.  If you are as obsessed with DIY Network or This Old House as I am (God I’m a geezer now) you just might want to wander there.  Check it.

Commentary on the Downfall of Modern Society

February 25, 2008 by youmybabydaddy  

No one puts the toilet seat down anymore.  Every time I walk into anyone’s bathroom it is just sitting there, upright.  It has a purpose and it is sadly neglected.  When you walk into a bathroom and it is down, it just looks right.  No home showcasing magazines show the toilet up, nor should they.  Ponder this one: when you close that seat and then flush you are no longer being showered by miniscule droplets of airbourne poop juice.  That shit can fly people!  Consider this next time you need to take a squirt.  Put the seat down and change the world.  Restore to the seat its rightful purpose and you will feel like all in the world is right.  Thank you for your time.  On with your now improved lives.

overplayed? yes, but i still love it!!

what is wrong with joe simpson?

February 24, 2008 by Sarah  

i know what your answer is. it’s probably something along the lines of “so much that i don’t know where to start”. if he was my dad i’d be too embarrassed to be seen with him. actually, i’d go as far as telling people that he was dead simply so that i could cut all ties.

i think he’s trying to dress young here but it really doesn’t work/make an sense at all.

spike jonze, one of the loves of my life, is directing an adaptation of the children’s book “where the wild things are”.  i remember reading about this a while ago but i wasn’t really sure what to think.  then i found out that david eggers, an author that i have a total love/hate relationship with will be writing the script.  curious.  now, a short clip from the film, which won’t be released until next year, has emerged - it’s pretty interesting and exciting.  you can check it out here.
