Hello Kitty, my love
This is the weird/amazing Japaneese display near my work:

I'd be excited if I knew what a MMORPG was?!
james - 10/13/08 13:19
I heard a rumor too strange for me to verify.

A Hello Kitty MMORPG goes into beta testing soon.

Enjoy

I was just thinking how I missed the San Rio store at the Rainbow mall. That place looks so ghetto looking, even the winter gardens is empty.

Random
Again I've lost my debit card. That make for a total of 3 times this year. I'm really annoyed with myself. I called the bank today to order a replacement. 7-10 business days. That's 2 weeks of cash only transactions. I suppose I should look at it like I'm saving money. No more impluse dress purchases.

The whole steak and champagne thing with Thomas may not happen. I was way to optimistic in assuming we could be friends. He's started with the "love talk" and asking if I plan to sleep over when he's in town. It makes me sad because there are many things about him that I hold dear and to never speak to him again seems odd.

I'm considering moving. My friend in MANHATTAN is giving up her place to move in with her boyfriend. The place is at the very tippy top of the island, but my mailing address would still be New York, NY. Anyone want to take a roadtrip to the city to help me move?

I'm wearing the world's cutest headband.
Somehow it's not as cute as I thought it would be on. I refuse to give up on it quite yet though.

3 weeks until Buffalo. I can not wait. I miss my friends there so much. This is the longest ever I've not gone home. Yes, in my heart I'll always consider Buffalo my home.

Ok that's the extent of what I have going on right now. I'm trying not to seem so vapid in my blog. I guess I've just been going through a weird time in my life lately and blogging too deeply about feelings and all that is off limits. Hopefully soon I'll be back to my old self..

When I lost mine this summer, I told "Marvin" on the phone 7-10 days wasn't good enough. He offered it in 2-3 instead. I've heard some banks even will print them off at the branch. THAT is the kind of service I need. Apparently you too, fuckin tether the next card to your wrist por favor!

Amazing Illustrations
By now everyone knows of my adoration of all things Mad Men and late 50's. The disfunctional family situations combined with the non stop boozing and sexing in the office make me wish I was born around 1945.

So my point of all this is some amazing genius on flicker has created a set of mid century illustrations that depict certain key scenes from Mad Men. I salute this amazing human. Below are some of my favorites:

  • Oh the good old days when you could drink AND drive. Note: I don't actually approve of drinking and driving. I just find it funny that people were so ok with it.

  • I might make this my birthday invitation. Or a birth announcement for my first girl. Either occasion seems to fit.

  • An illustration of a OBGYN visit? Awesome.

Hmmm.. I won't fit in at all. I can't booze and I am not sexed up. I hate cigarette smoking in spirit, and.. well I hate it every way possible. It's the number one cause of preventable morbidity across the world and I personally have seen families floundering because of this 40s-50s style of living.
hodown - 10/08/08 17:48
It's the obgyn. Apparently back in the day they smoked while doing everything.
gardenmama - 10/08/08 17:44
Is that the OBGYN smoking or the woman?
mrmike - 10/08/08 14:02
That is so damn cool

Cute Overload
I now own this headband:

It's so effing cute.
tinypliny - 10/08/08 20:59
That is pretty! (And I don't ever wear headbands). You totally need to make that part of your costume! :)

Disappointing
The big hoopla was Playboy Bunnies selling cupcakes that were so 3rd grade home ec.

  • Oh and not even the good Playboy Bunnies like Holly or Bridget. They were lame ones who weren't that hot.

I guess at least I got to get away from my desk. *sigh*

ROFL ROFL! (e:James) is on fire today!
james - 10/07/08 12:58
bunnies with back braces need to make money too.
