Wow that is one costly ticket. But when I think about that it is most likely in some Old Fancy Place in NYC that might be a big part of the price.

You and I both know it's not a matter of how gay you are, but a matter of how much taste you have. :) Gays have better taste! :) I am officially jealous. Enjoy!

Blog-o-ramaI just discovered a blog of someone who was really anti blog. I passed the link on to my sister to get affirmation that my blog is better. This is the conversation that ensued:
hlokty33: [redacted blog web address]
hlokty33: his blog sucks, at least mine is better
shushu1015: i can't read that shit
shushu1015: it's boring
hlokty33: I know it makes me feel better that at least my blog is better than someone's.

Gift ListsI just sent off my gift list to my mom. It had mostly books on it. I have this whole thing about asking for specific things. It's not like I'm 10 and can't afford anything. For the most part I can buy the things I need and if I want something I'll save up for it. If you have a gift list, why not just exchange piles of cash? I never ask people what they want. I like to give people gifts that are a surprise. Honestly I'd rather my mom just knit me an awesome scarf or sew me some pot holders. Things I can't make myself, but would love. That will never happen though. Instead my family always wants to do this extravagant gift exchange. It makes me sad.
jenks - 12/02/08 10:54
yeah, my mom is bugging me for a xmas list too. It's always hard for me to think of things I want- b/c usually I buy them for myself. And yeah, I hate asking for something specific and knowing what it cost.
But my mom refuses to give gift cards. she thinks it's a cop out.
And I kind of agree. I think it's a lot nicer to put some time and thought into picking a gift out for someone.
(I certainly don't mean to offend anyone that gives gift cards.)

now that i look back at my childhood i never got excited about 'wanting' something for christmas because we never made lists for santa. we just got a few small things sitting in a chair christmas morning (wrapping paper cost too much money). maybe it was best that way, you do appreciate whatever comes your way, and it certainly is a surprise :)

If a gift list is done right what you get will be a surprise see many things are listed and then the person chooses one or a couple of things or something based on that list, but you don't know what it is if there are many items.

My mom wants gift lists, too. I find it reminds me of being wee and making a list for santa, only the theme is far more boring since it is usually things i have to struggle to think of.
Like you, i prefer a gift to be a happy surprise. I just wish that i was better at it... i have so little practice.
Maybe next year, i will just take my chances and tell everyone to get me something they think i might like... or that they made.

AwkwardTo know me is to know my love of tacos. Specifically fish and chorizo tacos from the Taqueria in my neighborhood. I have to have one taco a week or else. Well I'm not sure exactly what would happen because I've yet to go a week without one, but I'm sure it would not be pretty.
So now that my adoration of tacos has been established on to me dilemma. There's this dude in my hood. He's worked at the coffee shop and also the taco place. We have a friendly rapport. I see him walking around etc. A few weeks back I saw him on the street. We stopped and chatted. He had quit working at the taco place and was taking time off to concentrate on his band, blah blah. In the process he asked for my number, said we should hang out. I was like, whatever, fine. So he called and we'd make plans to hang out, but he was kinda flaky. He'd call last minute, or make plans and back out due to band practice and then call back and want to hang. So eventually I just stopped answering his calls/texts. I mean he was in a heavy metal band, it could never work.
Flash forward to last night when I was having a major chorizo taco craving. I go grab a 6 pack of Presendante beer and head over to the Taqueria. Lo and behold who is at the counter taking orders other than the very guy I'd been avoiding. Luckily I saw him through the window before I walked in. So he's back at the Taqueria. This poses a HUGE problem for me. Either I forgo tacos until he quits again (how long will that take?) or limit my taco eating to weekend mornings when he doesn't work (the owners work the brunch crowd- don't ask how I know this).
This is a real problem for me. I'm calling it "Taco crisis '08".
Don't let the smile fool you, I'm not happy about the taco situation.

the tacos there are sooo good! i don't even really like tacos, and i love those things. but usually tacos means nasty ground beef creation. anyway ignore him and go for the taco. and then maybe a date? or a makeout for free tacos?

You could just tell him you got married and where a ring to fake it.

Well see here is the problem, if he thinks you are avoiding him then he may pass the word "hey this girl ditched Me" "Then that goes to hey if you see her do something to her Taco". So any taco could be tainted, so the best thing to do is to go in and have a mending of the ways maybe face to face". Another factor is, is the Taco Place one of the those places where you can see them make the Taco cause then you might be safe. Maybe you could say something like "Sorry, I was 2nd to your band, I've heard you where good, why didn't you invite me to watch instead of blowing me off, I'm not Yoko I don't want to break up the band". Or walk in "um what are you doing here I thought you left this place for the band". Hey maybe if he was the Jerk he might even give you some free food. Bottom line Tacos are to good to give up, if you go when you think he doesn't work he might be there. You saw him so did he see you also?
