I keep some peeps as friends on FB just for the drama of it. There's one and she's nice enough IRL but for the love of maude, stop being sooo dramatic and look-how-poetically-i'm-writing! Or...keep going. It's like reading my old diaries.

I. Am. So. HIGH. rightnow. Hours ago my pee was as clean as a wee cherub's tears. I am now going to pee positive-ly.

Um, there was a pair of Karen Walker sunnies I liked in the fashion spread (That I priced as being sold from $156-315! And they were/are sold out everywhere!). The Lee Price article was okay, I wish it had been longer, though. There was a also a recipe for a not potato salad that looked tasty. The DIY women in food article was also tasty sounding & somewhat inspiring. It's had me craving kimchee, anywho. All in all, it was a decent issue for the foodies.

I also miss the pre-exodus Lounge. There were some recent grumblings about maybe a few people wanting to return, but I doubt it.

got the new issue of the actual BUST magazine. it sucks BALLS. i mean, i was still a fan of it even as it was on the down swing, but seriously, the cover looks like a mid-90's 'zine but with none of the punk rock.

also, i miss the lounge.

my roommate eats so fucking loud, smacks her lips, tounge, chomps, god knows what else, and I want to go into the other room (yes, I can hear her DOWN THE HALL) and punch her head off.

other than that, she's lovely.

i'm treating this vaykay like i'm in the italy segment of eat prey love. i cant eat enough and i love it.

Fer reals. I do not get the faking of some shit. I have a buddy that is/was very enamored of the whole thing & started using the WORST accent in the fucking world. In PUBLIC, no less. With ME. I finally had to lower the boom & tell him to cut it the fuck out because he sounded like a tard & was embarrassing me.

the funny thing about anglophiles is that you never hear them using some of the REAL vernacular... oh, like 'feck off, you fecking cunty bastard!" just sayin.

[sybarite]

Ah, Ms Melua, she who sang about all those bicycles in Beijing. You know, if I want fey female singer songwriters (which I mostly don't) I'll just go for Tori Amos or Tanya Donnelly or Bjork or Stina Nordstrom.

All those Anglophiles are going to have a blast with the upcoming royal wedding. I'm sick of the coverage already and I'm not even in the jurisdiction. WHO CARES?

AP, I say stay mum. Do they begin with an 'A'?

The musician I was talking about was Katie Melua; she and her music have the appearance of being much more sophisticated than Britney, but that almost makes it worse; I can get liking Britney just for trashy appeal, but this stuff is pretentious AND bland. I suspect Bike Boy just likes her because of her "international" feel. It reminds me of the episode of Friends in which Phoebe caught a cold and started singing in a raspy, accented voice. And now I've probably offended some Katie Melua fan on the board. Sorry. I just don't care for her.

Confession: I think red velvet cake is the "Emperor's New Clothes" of desserts. I just don't get it. I mean, its tasty and all, but it just tastes like generic cake flavor to me. I suspect people just like it for the cream cheese frosting.

AP, I am baffled by some of the Anglophiles I find on the internet - they seem to pick out the fakest aspects of Englishness to admire.

confession: i think your favorite musician sucks. her voice is contrived, her style is dull, and her lyrics are inane. you just like her because she has a "sexy" accent.

I have a great friend, a friend I love. For the most part his taste in music is usually excellent. But his love of a lot of horrid female artists makes me want to vomit. I didn't get Britney ten years ago; her breathy, shallow delivery confounds me even more now that she is thirty.

Confession: I ordered a couple dresses from the UK back in early Feb. When they hadn't arrived after almost a month, I sent them an email asking for tracking info or whatever. I heard nothing, then exactly a month & a day from the day of supposed shipping I received my package. My dresses were gorgeous & perfect & worth every penny spent. Today they sent me an email telling me that my parcel was lost & that they have refunded my CC for the sale & would be refunding the shipping in a separate transaction. BUT I GOT THE PACKAGE.

I know I should call them & tell them I got the package, but I'm not gonna. I may just use the $145 & buy two more dresses from them on it. And use the 20% discount they offered me.

[Three Days Darkness]

The character of heretics of latter days. He exhorts Timothy to constancy. Of the great profit of the knowledge of the scriptures.
[1] Know also this, that, in the last days, shall come dangerous times. [2] Men shall be lovers of themselves, covetous, haughty, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, wicked, [3] Without affection, without peace, slanderers, incontinent, unmerciful, without kindness, [4] Traitors, stubborn, puffed up, and lovers of pleasures more than of God: [5] Having an appearance indeed of godliness, but denying the power thereof. Now these avoid.

[6] For of these sort are they who creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, who are led away with divers desires: [7] Ever learning, and never attaining to the knowledge of the truth. [8] Now as Jannes and Mambres resisted Moses, so these also resist the truth, men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. [9] But they shall proceed no farther; for their folly shall be manifest to all men, as theirs also was. [10] But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,

[8] "Jannes and Mambres"... The magicians of king Pharao.

[11] Persecutions, afflictions: such as came upon me at Antioch, at Iconium, and at Lystra: what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord delivered me. [12] And all that will live godly in Christ Jesus, shall suffer persecution. [13] But evil men and seducers shall grow worse and worse: erring, and driving into error. [14] But continue thou in those things which thou hast learned, and which have been committed to thee: knowing of whom thou hast learned them; [15] And because from thy infancy thou hast known the holy scriptures, which can instruct thee to salvation, by the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

[16] All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice, [17] That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work.

[16] "All scripture,"... Every part of divine scripture is certainly profitable for all these ends. But, if we would have the whole rule of Christian faith and practice, we must not be content with those Scriptures, which Timothy knew from his infancy, that is, with the Old Testament alone: nor yet with the New Testament, without taking along with it the traditions of the apostles, and the interpretation of the church, to which the apostles delivered both the book, and the true meaning of it.
