2009

Apparently 2009 has the theme of do the exact opposite of what is a good choice (it kinda fits the theme of 2005-2007). Anyway one of those wrong choices is my not so secret obsession with loving to hate vapid, self absorbed, unaware girl blogs. So there's one blog that I kinda heart. It's Jullia Allison's blog. I kinda feel like if I hadn't had any hardship in life I could have very possibly turned into her (note: I'm glad life didn't turn out that way because despite all the qualities I dislike about me, I think I actually have some pretty good qualities too). So really the point of this is. I love this blog entry of hers:

Me:
Is it okay that I wear the EXACT SAME OUTFIT on every single first date?
Lilly:
[licks the ground]
Me:
I'm going to take that as a "yes."

Incase you didn't want to click over above is the entry. Lilly is her cute puppy.

I do the same exact thing! Once you have a good date outfit why change it? Mine is this black cashmere v-neck button down. It's soft and snuggley. The boys like it :)

A conversation..

I've officially ended things with Mr. Broadway. It's a long story, but I felt the need to send him an email explaining to him exactly why. The original was slightly vengeful. I sent the modified one to Tom so he could give me his thoughts. This is our conversation:

Tom: was that the toned down one?
Jessica: yes
Tom: wow...it was more sharp than that?
Jessica: do you not know me?
Tom: ok...it was kind of rhetorical
Jessica: the orginal had more of a fuck you tone
Tom: and that one didn't?!!?
Jessica: that was my "taking the higher road" tone
Tom: with a double middle finger salute as you walk down that road

Man, and you used to be crazy about Mr. Broadway. I definitely relate to the "used to be crazy about you" think. I remember thinking with past girlfriends, man, I'm not going to get anyone better than her, I'm a fuckup - but after a while you see that their nose is crooked and they pick their nose, are rude to people and...man they weren't all that fucking sweet to begin with.

Blogs (not mine)

Just moments ago I encountered the best blog of 2009.

Feel free to thank me profusely.

I thank you profusely. I needed that laugh. :)

libertad - 01/13/09 21:59
I love this blog. I wish it were mine.

tinypliny - 01/13/09 18:25
Ah! That's it. I am going to time my future Spot visits with (e:Joshua). I could maybe hack into that camera on that intersection and see when you are going there. There *must* be something* special in your coffee for people to want to take it. I am certainly not going to miss out. Thank you!

There are so many I can't decide:

Excessive Litterbug (side note: when tourists litter in NYC I want to chase after them with their trash and tell them I don't litter in their town so don't effing litter in mine)
Undecided Voter
Concert Pusher
Cast of Real World Brooklyn
Traveler with Giant Backpack on Subway
Self-Important Bluetooth Guy
Tandem Sidewalk Tourists

Ok so maybe I want to punch everyone. This is an issue I'm working on.

56 is familiar - I guard my coffees like a hawk when I'm waiting at Spot. Way too many times have I had obvious visitors just scoop whatever cup is at the bar, taking my shit and thus leaving me to tell the barista about the situation. I'm sure they love making drinks twice simply because some oblivious human debris can't wait for and/or verify their own orders!

Right... rant over! Don't take my coffee at Spot y'all - just saying.

Happy New Year!

Update in bullet point:

AZ was really nice.

Had a great time in Buffalo, as always.

Lost my ID at some point, but still was able to fly home. Guess I know what I'll be doing on Saturday.

Dude from the summer that put me into a severe funk EMAILED ME. Not sure what I'm going to do about that.

Glad to be back in the city, but am missing everyone I love already.

imk2 - 01/03/09 08:27

jenks - 01/02/09 18:21
Sorry I missed you!

again

My flight is delayed again. It's times like these that I really wish I had a private jet.

tinypliny - 12/31/08 11:26
Its grand snow here!

ladycroft - 12/31/08 08:06
hope you've made it in by now! we got uber lucky with a perfectly clear day for our arrival. We were early coming into the states, and early coming into B-lo. Unheard of!

I can't even remember the last time I flew out of any NY area airport on time. I think the standard has devolved into varying levels of lateness.
