Trip to Boston
So this weekend I am leaving half way through work tomorrow to drive to Boston to visit (e:Maureen). It is the longest I have ever driven by myself but it shouldn't be too bad , it is only like 7 hours. Hopefully it isn't a terrible blizzard where i die in the car though. I looked into flying but it was too expensive last minute (espeically because I just got new tires on Tuesday) and a lot of the flights had layovers which are stupid and I hate flying especially with no flying happines remedies on hand. I am actually sorta excited about the drive, I can just play my music and sing my little heart out for 7 hours! I do enjoy that! I just wish the trip was a little longer instead of 3 days but work is just to cray cray right now for me to be gone any longer!

Mob Wives
So I watch Mob Wives off and on but haven't seen it in a wihle. It is pretty amaze. I mean a little redic like if you are in the mob aren't you supposed to keep it a secret and not do a reality show about it? Anywho most of them are daughters of mob people so I guess it makes more sense. Anywho one of the main characters on the show is Sammy the Bull Gravano's daughter Karen . He was the guy who was like a mob boss who turned informant. Well this new season a girl from the Philadelphia mob family whose husband just got arrested and whose father in the law was murdered by a hit put out by Sammy the Bull has joined the show. And like she comes on and is all I hate Karen because her father killed my father in law blah blah blah fmaily drama. But anywho, she was all I will never be in the same room as Karen, I hope I never ever run into her.......SO YOU JOINED A REALITY SHOW THAT SHE IS ON! That seems like a great plan for avoiding her. So fake. i don't care though I will still watch. I love Big ANG! nothing will ever be as amazing as Big Ang! I WANT her to be part of my life so bad. Come on now, that fake tan, those fake lips, those fake boobs, and that voice...ooh that voice. LOVE HER

Never watched but it does seem like they could see something they aren't supposed to and that could make them (People who film it) a target and also if a case is being made the government could force them to give them everything they recorded ......

I love me some Big Ang; she's hysterical.
heidi - 12/06/13 12:39
Yeah, can't fall asleep for a while - those are nightmare-inducing lips. What is wrong with them? Is it a birth defect that I shouldn't be making fun of?
tinypliny - 12/06/13 12:20
From a recent interview:

.......
From what we see on the show, your personality is larger than life. How much of this is real and how much is you putting it on for the cameras?

Ang: All of it, it really is all true stuff. I am like that.
Jenn: One hundred percent. *I don’t think Ang knows how to be fake.*
Ang: That’s me every day. That’s been me my whole life. Always working in bars, you have to have that personality all the way.

Great...now I need to avoid falling asleep for 3 hours lest her lips swallow my subconscious

B Cup
As some of you who were over for dinner the other day noticed and as some of my friend's at work have pointed out, I really am breasty lately.I have no idea what is going on , I mean I am a little heavier than I was before but have not really gained much weight but whatever weight I have gained is in my chest. I really think I must be well on my way to a B cup at this point. It is out of control! I need it to stop. Maybe if i keep jiggling them they will lose fat?
lilho - 12/01/13 18:44

Days of our Lives
EJ: You won't even give my sister a chance. You are always going to hate her.
Sami: Well let's see. She tried to kill my mother. She broke my step brother's heart at the altar by raping a priest who happens to be MY TWIN! How am I supposed to get over that!

Oh how I love the drama in Salem!
lilho - 11/22/13 14:10
Those are just minor issues and I don't get how she can't just get over it...
joe - 11/21/13 22:11
I think I need to start watching days of our lives.
paul - 11/21/13 22:11
Thats some exciting drama.

Fancy Movie Theater Recliner
So me, (e:jill) and (e:mk) went to see About Time at the AMC theater on Maple the other day. I had not been there in forevs and a day because it was old and run down and a hot uncomfortable mess but I had heard they renovated and had recliners now so we thought we would go check it out. Well, we get there and we buy our tickets and we were like 20 minutes early which is so unlike us but we didn't know how the whole experience was going to work out so we were a little early. Anywho, so then YOU GET RESERVED SEATS! like you pick your seats and they are numbered and you get to sit there. That was pretty cool. We got our popcorn and pop and there were two things I disliked about their refreshment situation.

1. They do not serve tubs of popcorn. Their large popcorn is a bag which is not nearly or at least does not seem nearly as large as the tub at the Regal. I really like eating out of a tub, period end of story . a bag will never be a tub. I mean really , if I"m going to eat out of a bag I might as well just eat off the floor. Ok i guess it wasn't period end of story because I had more to say but really not eating popcorn out of a tub really gets my goat.

2. They have those new coke machines where you can choose from 809 flavors. Unlike everyone else in the world I despise these machines. I see the benefit of having all these flavor choices but really it makes me life much much worse. First of all, I swear it always just tastes like a mix of a whole bunch of flavors because I swear it doesn't clear itself out. Then secondly, people spend hours , like literally 1.72 hours deciding on a flavor since there are so many choices. So what used to be a drink handed to you in like 2 seconds now it a 1.72 hour process of standing in line, finding your flavor and then getting a mixed flavor grossness. I really dislike these machines.

So then we get into the theater and get oru seats. Wow , theya re awesome and comfortable. They like fully recline and are large and super comfy. We took pics, so did like everyone else, everyone seemed really in love in the seats. I'm thinking they might get gross in the summer when people wet sweaty skin gets stuck to the pleather and you hear a lot of skin tearing stickiness but for now while everyone is wearing pants and sweaters it is really enjoyable. Theh people next to us even brought a blanket. T

There are far fewer seats now since they are so spacious so I recommend you order online ahead of time or call to make sure you get good seats.

OOOH wait I almost forgot the most important part. These seats make it hard to share pop and popcorn unless youa re really snuggling up. me mk and Jill usually split a popcorn and it would be almost impossible to reach from the seats on the side with someone in the middle holding it like in a normal theater. Luckily Jill thought of this and brought 2 tupperware bowls that we could split it into so we could all enjoy our popcorn. We had 2 pops and they both only have cup holders on the outside so if you are hsaring a pop you would have to reach across the other person depending on where you were sitting.

So overall I really like the new theater, super comfy and fun but there were some downsides in the refreshment area.

Oh and the movie. it was really good. it was by the people who did Love Actually and I didn't love it as much as I loved Love Actually actually but it was still good. It was about this guy and he can travel back in time but only to parts of his life and there are different rules and his dad can do it too. It had some really sad parts that you had to live over and over due to time travel which lead to a lot of crying on our part but it was enjoyable. I recommend it!

That looks nicer than the Regal at the Galleria with the reclining seats, especially when it used to be so trashy. I remember my little sister got head lice there.

Also I love those Coke machines, even if people like me take forever. You just have to run some water before you pour your drink and it doesn't taste like the last persons flavors.
paul - 11/20/13 23:42
I am so jealous, I want to go.
