list number 2: birthday wishlist

my birthday is coming up. i have no plans. i don't really wanna make plans coz i'm tired and it's gonna be overshadowed by elections/mother's day and I'm a crap bday person because i'm gonna be shunted off to one side and that is just so effin' sad. :( i really like birthdays! just not really mine. plus it's a workday. sucks.

hemmingways, i'm gonna dream about the stuff i want. like....

1. The Canon Powershot G11. i lust after this camera like there's no tomorrow but unlike my lovely fisheye lomo cam which is great and affordabler compared to this one (plus even better coz i got it from someone), it is ... not cheap. but man. i would like to hock a kidney for this, except i know of someone who gave up a kidney for his dad. and that just beats hocking a kidney for a camera. so no. but yes, i want you like a carnivore with a tender, juicy, piece of steak with fat fries and a tall, icy glass of coke after 40 days of eating camote.

and this is to make myself hurt even more. this would make my spain/paris trips worth fifteen hundred times over.

2. a netbook with more than 200GB. because as much as i love my laptop, i like it not hefty. and with more memory. PLEASE, LAPTOP GODS!!!! I CAN'T TAKE MUCH MORE OF THE MACOYS AND LENOVOS OUT THERE.

3. An Ipad. just coz the bandwagon looks like so much fun to join.

... okay, i only have three. but the combined total must be like 90k. so it's not that i'm being less wanting, i'm just being more expensive. ting!

maybe i'll buy myself peonies and stick em in a glass to cheer me up.

whyyyy am i dreading my birthday?

things I'd rather be doing

i'm sitting here in the office, in my last day of the emergency response. i would really like to go home now! but i can't. so i'm going to make a list of things I'd rather be doing.

1. drinking. i'm really thirsty! know what sucks about being in an office that's closing?? THEY TOOK THE WATER GLASSES AWAY. i'm thisclose to sitting on the floor with my laptop and bags like a bum. but not as cool because a bum is relaxed and i'm... not.

2. watching a movie. although maybe not the back-up plan (which i watched yesterday and instead of being cute... i just kinda never wanna have children.). like watching clash of the titans, where the wild things are, valentines' day, iron man 2, the A-team, the expendables.

3. watching a tv show. like dexter, greek, chuck, gossip girl and about the 500 million shows i already missed.

4. sleeping.

5. going out with my lovely friends who i miss a lot.

6. spending time w/ ... even if a lot of things.

7. eating. man, i really am thirsty.

8. NOT READING. my brain cells are so tired... i don't wanna read! when does that ever happen.

9. shopping. but not for me. like using someone else's money to buy stuff for them. or my money. or whatever. shit, i'm tired.

10. traveling. seeing the great beyond and beyonder.

10 is enough. coz i have another list in mind.

jake gylenhaal...

is the perfect mix of rugged and preppy. which is exactly what i like.

this is a very cool cv

beats my boring one by a mile

it's still my birthday! (lily, himym)

what a cool idea! this lady (bad at referencing, sorry) had a rainbow bday party and assigned all her friends once color each... must've made for really cool photos.

what am i gonna do for my bday?

this woman is really pretty... headbands are great, too!

ana ortiz and becki newton and michael urie need shows of their own!

no pain, no gain

this is gonna be me on monday... :(

jump!

the most romantic film ever (for me!)

My affections and wishes have not changed, but one word from you will silence me forever. If, however, your feelings have changed, I will have to tell you: you have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.

- Pride and Prejudice

what a cover!

i totally did this in pisa! haha

it's like an extreme version of thriller. hahahaha

relativity

When Einstein asked himself a similar question about our relationship to time, he came up with the theory of relativity. His simplification of the theory was, “Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT’S relativity.”

erm. clever? i'm undecided. lazy human beings!

getmeoutofhere

i predict this kid is gonna be cuter than suri and shiloh combined

it is official!

it's official! I'll be flying to Paris to see Bon and Migs after our family reunion in Spain! 11-15 July, here we go!

that is just wrong.

heidi montag should be a wrestler now.

and out of the three guys, marshall is the one i love the most! plus i really like lily. she's like a feisty tiny little control freak. but in a good way.

a nice romantic letter

My Darling Wife

This note is to warn you of a diabolical plot entered into by some of our so called friends - (ha!) calendar makers and even our own children. These and others would have you believe we've been married 20 years.

20 minutes maybe - but never 20 years. In the first place it is a known fact that a human cannot sustain the high level of happiness I feel for more than a few minutes - and my happiness keeps increasing.

I will confess to one puzzlement but I'm sure it is just some trick perpetrated by our friends - (Ha again!) I can't remember ever being without you and I know I was born more than 20 mins ago.

Oh well - that isn't important. The important thing is I don't want to be without for the next 20 years, or 40, or however many there are. I've gotten very used to being happy and I love you very much indeed.

Your Husband of 20 something or other.
