Little something for the end of the day

Because I'm beyond bored at work:

So the other day me and (e:paulie) were having a little chat and as always we ended up on a random topic: When people tell you their "sexy/provocative" stories thinking it's hot that they are telling you, yet really they are kind of gross. So then you have this horrific image in your head. Shivers.

On another note I have all these rocking new scientific friends. I totally dig the science nerds. Who knew all this time I just needed a little science in my life to perk me up.

And finally:

Last year I was home for valentine's day and as I was sitting on the Drexel ((E:pmt)'s couch) Paulie saddles up next to me and asks me to be his valentine. It was adorable. This year I don't believe that will happen :( I suppose I'll have to go with choice number two and take the (E:lilho) as my valentine. Looking on the bright side of that at least my valentine is funny and has stylo that could kick anyone's ass hands down...

I'm an asshole

So in Dec I ordered these custom made boots from London. They cost a small fortune (500 plus 40 per pair for shipping) and were awesome and made just for me. Now its almost a month later and I still don't have them. I called the company, reamed them out and sent a not so nice email. Later I realize I mistakenly forgot part of the shipping address. I'm an asshole. So I emailed the company back, took the blame for being an idiot and now I still want my boots. Will I ever get them? Everyday I'm like this would be a sweet outfit with my boots. Oh wait I don't have any boots. Fuck! I do have Prada shoes though. Sadly they aren't healing the wounds of having no boots.

Secondly- I agree 100% w (e:lilho). I too am sick of all this feeling crapness mixed with the mundane details of peoples days. I miss the old school days of (e:jason) and the debates, combined with randomness and stories about scandal and booty calls. Really let's take the emo over to myspace where all the crapness belongs. If your post involves: sex/booty calls w details- I say post. If your post invloves: love lost feelings, why am I here feelings or minute by minute play back of your day (and your day is not interesting) then take it to myspace. Really I don't think (e:strip) should be all about everyone being BFF, that sucks. I say bring the fiest back to estrip. (e:lilho) and I are starting the movement.

Celeb Sightings and Such

So Saturday I saw Mike Meyers at Teany. He has really awesome skin, which I thought was interesting. No, I didn't go say anything to him. It's one of the unwritten NYC rules, you let the celebs live in peace and they will continue to mingle amongst us so we can gawk. Sadly Teany is closing :(. Moby pulled out because the place is not making money. Really it's not a suprise. People go in and drink a $5 pot of tea for 2 hours, that's not a money maker. Esp. since it's in the uber hip LES- aka we charge and insane amount fo rent for a shithole.

Also I am now the official owner of my first pair of Prada shoes. Since I was little I used to tell (e:paul) my dream was to own a insanely expensive pair of Italian made shoes. They are actually from a thrift store, so I paid less than $100 for them too. I have reached my goals before I turned 30. Awesome. Speaking of thrift stores. I am the thrift store queen. I found a Nanette Lapore silk shirt at the Goodwill too for $5. Now that's a bargin. The same place I got the Prada's from also has a pair of Hogan Wedges for $35 size 9- a little big, but for the sake of fashion why not?

Now if I could only get my act together and clean my apartment my life would be fab...

My new mattress

My new bed is awesome. Every morning I have to pry myself from its ultra comfort. As my Christmas present to myself I bought:

The to top it off I have some kick ass memory foam pillows and 400 TC Egyptian Cotton Sheets. The new down comforter arrives today. I have always dreamed of the most ultra comfortable bed ever. I think I am getting close to that goal. I'm going to Ikea this weekend to take a look at some new bed frame options. Ultra comfort and wonderfulness here I come!

For those guests who are used to me giving up my bed when you come to visit- I'm going to have to say f-off. I'm never giving up my bed for the couch again. Sorry bitches, the bed is just too wonderful now...

Weekend Update

I haven't posted in a while. I go through these bouts of thinking estrip sucks, then being like what the fuck, I have nothing better to do at work so why not. I just can't stand the highschool drama (secret identities and such) I mean WTF are we 16 or nearing our 30s and beyond.

Anyways- with that I'm sure to be unpopular sediment I'll move on:

Hung out with the rockstars of We Are Scientists

It's ok to be jealous. They fucking rock the party. Yet they've turned weird in their recent stardom. And they are all about the asian invasion or yellow fever as some call it. I think it's all way to John and Oko for me. However during the night I did meet this kick ass girl and had a great time. I've met more rad girls in the past few weeks then ever I think. They actually all are real scientists, ironic i know. Nothing like talking about cations

at 4am.

Favorite quote of the evening: "I started out with Chili for dinner so why not tacos at 3am?"

Fucking A

Thats the first thing I said this morning. As many of you may know the TWA has decided to strike. A brief overview of this:

Imagine you live near a huge city. In this city the main way to move from place to place is a subway. Now imagine that you do not actually live in this city, but in another state that is seprated from this city by a large deep river. Now imagine the closest you can get to your job is over two miles away and its 10 degrees outside and yes you must walk to get to your job.

Thats my life. A 2 hour motherfucking commute in 10 degrees. Yes I could take a cab to and from work. It would only cost me 30 each way. To me spending my entire Christmas bonus on cabs seems totally reasonable.

There are a few high points to all of this though:

Yesterday I got a ipod nano from this woman i work with. Sweet. My christmas wish came true. Apparently baby jesus was listening (well actually is he was really listening she would have given me a puggle puppy- but im not complaining).

This whole walk to work in my sneakers and skirt makes me feel very working girl ala melanie griffin in the 80's.

I finally replaced my lost cashmere scarf, so my neck was at least warm.

How long will this piece of crap strike continue? About 10-12 days by all estimates. I now have a grudge against the mta. I will hold that close to my heart forever.

What?

Would it mean that I'm a failure if I gave up on New York? What is the cost benefit of living here versus living near those that really mean the most to me? Maybe I don't have to constantly prove that I can succeed beyond everyone else. Maybe being me is just simply enough. For the first time ever I think I have realized that this all stems from having a father that abandoned me. No matter what I did or how hard I tried he still left.

Thank god I'm going to go hang out with the Irish hottie, otherwise I might sit here and continue to drink this bottle of Champagne...
