Gay BFF

every girl needs a gay best friend. unfortunately, jenn hasn't been able to find one over the 27 years of her life. thus, at yesterday's bbq, jenn claimed the following: "i want a gay son."

i came home from the bbq and wrote one of my friends. "kyle, you have to be my gay best friend." he responded, "i'm so excited i could shit."

Pop

i finally watched the finale of grey's...and even though i knew exactly what was going to happen, i still managed to bawl my eyes out when denny died at the end. but my fav scene had to be bailey giving instructions for prom. "it will pop!"

speaking of pop, how lame am i that i've been addicted to stupid poppy songs by rihanna, shakira, and natasha...for like 3 weeks. sos...because i'm siiiiingle...and hips don't lie dammit.

this weekend was filled with wedding-ish lovey doveyness. on friday night, aly's bachelorette party (cooking lesson / dinner) was great but i think i'm topped out on my girly parties for the next year. jenn and bryan's reception last night was informal yet very cute...you know it's a good time when i get to chill with my nerd buds... i heard the words "java rules" and felt right at home.

oh, how about them three game sevens? i know it won't happen, but i'm rooting for clippers - mavs.

yet another random thought: how annoying is it when your car is just a wee bit dirty and it freakin' sprinkles?

Nerd Love

i miss nerdiness. i was trying to write a self-assessment paper last night and was reviewing my notes from the 360-degree feedback exercise we had previously done. in quoting a result in my paper, i was about to write, "according to my 2-pi feedback exercise..." and started to crack up by myself. i was like, no one is going to appreciate this sad humor except my nerd homies.

Annual Rant

i say this every year during the nba playoffs...WHY THE F IS TIM DUNCAN SO BORING!?!?!!?

B-O-R-I-N-G. he's like a plain pretzel (unsalted, unbuttered)...no one wants that crap!

side subject...summer internship search. i was asked my one of the firms to do an investment memo. this is the response i got:

"It's not great. It's not as terrible as you think it is but it's not that great either. On a scale of 1-10, I rate it as a 5.5."

as least i'm above average! ooooh yeah.

Mobility

i need blog capabilities in the car. i think the most of my random (yet brilliant) thoughts come when i'm stuck in commute. images trigger thoughts. kevin and bean make you laugh. the car talk guys make you feel nerdy. you see things like the 7 am line for american idol with little people with "i heart elliott" signs or a prostitute the morning after or have a semi-celebrity sighting like the guy who played the dad on mr. belvedere and you think...man, this, i mean THIS, is what you call blog material. then you get in front of the computer and open the lovely blogger and think, "crap, what was my brillant commentary i was going to share with the world?" sigh. frustration. i blame mobile technology for ruining the quality of my blog entries.

on a side note, i learned a great word from a classmate friend, sarah, today at aly's bridal shower. the word is "friend-aissance" and this is when you reconnect with an old friend after long hiatus of communication. her word of advice: "don't encourage a friendaissance if he is boring." so deep.

Always a Ditz

steph, kat, and i met up to go to natalie thai's for lunch. post-lunch, we all got a fortune cookie.

steph: "my fortune says, 'you are original and creative.'"
me: "mine says, 'your dream of happiness will soon come true.'"
steph: "how about yours, kat?"
kat: "1 5 9 26 35 27"

steph: "flip is over."

El Queso Por Favor

i got an email from the anderson cafe lady who wants to name a food item after me because i'm a nice customer. don't laugh. i'm serious.

so, the big debate of the day: what food item and what cheesy name should i assign it?

Joggers

i have no idea why but one of the things that ALWAYS cracks me up are the joggers who get stuck at a street intersection. the in-place-jogging-cause-people-in-cars-looking-at-me-will-think-i'm-a-real-athlete mentality of these people make me want to roll my window down and yell, "hey, hot stuff!"
