"Call me Ishmael."



It's that time of year again!

Shark week on the Discovery Channel!

shark-tracker.com

I'm so torn! The Bull shark is obviously the more evil of the sharks but it's rarely seen off the coast of CA. ... However, should I accept that I now live on the Atlantic side of the US, where Bull's live in plenty? I grew up fearing-studying-loathing the Great White (which, although also found on the Atlantic side, their East-coast attacks pale in comparison to other species) so it's ingrained in me. . . So who gets the #1 spot of Most Hated Shark?
Who takes the #1 spot might change what I'd do with a million $$ if I ever won a million $$. . .

Our CA. neighbors. . .






Looks like someone didn't know when to say 'when'

It reminds me of when Stephen cut his own hair...

You know who's an awesome surprise visitor?

My friend for 20+ years, Crystal.
She's visiting from L.A. with her beau, Andrew.

If I was a good friend I would have taken photos of her because she's really pretty (and you'd benefit from that too) but I'm not. Instead I took a photos of the things I saw that scared me (but I left out the 'rape warning' sign i saw in an apt. in case my mom reads this). . . .



me running through a LES park alone late late at night


a murder weapon store!



scariest of them all!







So on a happy note, I'll tell you that Crystal told me she knows Kenneth from 30 Rock. What are the chances that I obsess over the show all day and that night my friend tells me she knows my favorite TV star, next to the Bluth family. I confuse reality and fantasy too much, huh?

oh yeah? Well just read this excerpt from an article that the actor who plays Kenneth said (ergo, the real actor and the character he plays are equally entertaining and merit importance in my life):

McBRAYER: People on the street have been nice. I thought people were going to come up and say, ''Your show ain't funny. And you're stupid. And you've got no chin. And your haircut is ugly. And you're from the South.'' But they've been nice. A couple of times, people were like, ''Can I hug you?''

LEE AND URIE: Awwwww....

McBRAYER: Then they stab you with a hypodermic needle.

Are you having withdrawls too?

From your favorite TV show, of course. I don't have any addictions!


Jack: Poker night? How many play?
Liz: Oh, you're not going to come to our crappy poker night, are you?
Jack: No, I'm not going to come.
Liz: [relieved] Good!
Jack: I bluffed. I am coming.


Dot Com: Yo, Kenneth, we need to talk now.
Kenneth: Oh, I've had this conversation before. You're marrying my mom, aren't you?

You know what the best part is?


My upper body strength doesn't even compare to my lower-body strength / massive muscles.






Can you tell who I have on the brain?
Chuck Norris can build a snowman out of rain.
Chuck Norris can create a rock so heavy that even he can't lift it. And then
he lifts it anyways, just to show you who the flip Chuck Norris is.

Stephen cut his own hair


can you tell?

Stephen thought this looked good


[Mom - I'm not being mean - I think Stephen's almost always right - just not with his hair style.]

Diane saves the day

And when Di cleans up afterwards, this is how she does it:


I think it hurts

Family Outing to Costco. The possibilities were endless. . .

I tested out the kitty beds


They were delicious, like the kittens.

She works hard for her money


Someone got really lazy. . .

Someone put me in the freezer for a laugh


i no like

Ash ponders that age-old question. . .


Does this cart make my bum look fat?

You Guys, I have an important annoucement


I got a Costco Membership!
I'm so bummed I was temporarily possessed and ruined my chances at an awesome photo.

You guys, curiosity killed the cat

Going home now (wish i could take you with me)



I'm off to a land without the internet (that's almost true) and free phones (let's call Brasil! -- well I assume its free, I'm not sure how land lines work these days) and children (the good kind) and la comida verdade (don't even think of arguing with me on this one) for a week!

What if I don't come back?


what if i don't come back

O cruel world!



NY is mourning the loss of the best roller skater and hot wife duo of all time. You're a lucky soul if you e'er had the chance to see them on the dance floor. Even their wedding day couldn't stop them from being awesome.

Who knew?!



It makes sense since (those 2 words are so confusing and I'm a native speaker) I can't stop listening to 'Let the Devil In.'
