inxs - devil inside

i watched this video on VH1 Classics the other day and was extremely entertained. this video features the following:

1. near constant use of a smoke machine
2. skateboarding
3. pool playing
4. catwalking
5. big permed hair (male & female)
6. surfboards
7. motorcycles
8. palpable tension between surfers and motorcyclists
9. ill-fitting blazers worn with mock turtlenecks
10. subtle 'devil' theme
11. keyboards
12. ominous lighting
13. asian girls
14. solitary appearance of what seems to be a bellhop
15. pole dancing
16. satin opera-length gloves paired with off the shoulder tops (a look i am willing to bet we will not see 'come around' again)
17. spandex-clad wrestler types ("beefcakes")
18. unfriendly sideways glares
19. more bowler hats than you can shake a stick at

maybe "cats" had more of an effect than we'd all care to admit

What was with this 80's trend of 'lecherous cats in pop music videos'?

- trying to get one of our clients to tell me "yes, go ahead and buy the $4,000 rug for the spa, I think it's FABULOUS."

******SPOOKY SCARY********

What's everyone being for Halloween?

basically what the weekend's gonna be like

Put it in Your Outlook Calendars

Peter and I are taking September 25th off from work to go to MA for this reunion weekend in the making. By "in the making", I mean "make it happen". Otherwise -

She'll get you.

Jonah's brother will be all like, GAWWAAAARRRRR

Peter will be all like, ewwww, that bitchy bartender made my appletini wrong, again!!!

Do you want any of these things to happen? I don't think so. So confer with each other about carpooling, timing, etc. because this weekend is totally for serious and it would be so fun if we could all make it down to the cape.

Also, Boston people in particular: anyone who can take this Friday off gives Melanie and Peter a ride, yes? Good.

so office right now

wellllllllll i'm quite bored at my real person job. it's a real person job, as of this past monday - 9 to 5 now yo! the best part about it is i'm making something slightly akin to real person dollars. so, let's all take a second and think about how great that is for me.

since today is friday, what i'm doing is waiting till i can leave, so i may start the trek down to long beach island for silly times with my family. i am terribly excited to drive a car; you have no idea. my boss is on vacation, and i can't say i haven't tried to get in touch with her today - there were emails sent, voicemails left. oh well!

i'm feeling really accomplished after making this picture featuring lauren as a beer drinking cat, so i probably won't do anything for the rest of the day.

i also want to start a thing where we all prank call one another at our work phone numbers. thoughts?

Bonnaroo Yo

So this year, as some of you may know, I decided to go to Bonnaroo. Here are some lists regarding my experience there:

Things I Saw a Lot of:
- Bad tattoos. (Sub-category: tree tattoos).Some highlights: a baby lion cub with angel wings in the tramp stamp region done in a biker-y style, a stoned caterpillar...etc.
- Men in speedos/short-shorts/diaper type things. One young man had on a pair of nude colored booty shorts with the word "Valor" printed on the buttcheeks.
- "Earth shoes": shoes one wears when they understand that the earth's terrain can be varied and treacherous, but they still, ya know, wanna feel the breeze on their foot. Heinous all around.
- Poop (from horse)
- Poop (from human)
- Ants (in my tent)
- Adorable children with frightening futures (see: their parents. Probably wearing Earth Shoes).
- People who came solely to see Phish.
- Ladies with armpit forests.

Things I Saw Little of, That I Perhaps Expected to See More of:
- Public drug overdoses. Though I did witness one. Jealous?
- Garden variety jam bands.
- Nudity of the Unattractive-Woman type.
- Lecherous old men.
- Borderline 'needs medical assistance' sunburns.


Questionable Things at the Roo:

you're so concerned

I haven't posted here in forever...I know ya'll are waiting with bated breath to find out what I'm doing. I'LL TELL YOU STOP SCREAMING AT ME

Soooooo....I'm currently working at a restaurant in Midtown where people are nice and tip between 15 and 20 percent. All of the other waitresses are Irish, as in from Ireland, and it is often hard to understand what they're saying. Especially when they say "wee" instead of "little", and when it's raining outside, they say it's "pissing".

However, I have obtaianed another job - A REAL JOB. I start next Monday, and I'm doing my first "thing" for it on Saturday, a furniture expo type thing where some new home trendz will be exhibited. It's with a furniture contracting/interior design firm, where I'll be doing those things, for hotels, spas and offices. I'll get people furniture from lots of different places, go to furniture events, and help them decide between fabrics. And stuff. It's like a real job, where people will actually have me do real things, and treat me like a real person. At least I hope.

In other news, if you like arts, or farts and/or crafts, peep dis: www.ninedollarsandwich.blogspot.com
I totally made it, and it's where I put my arts. I am in the process of gradually uploading the vast archives of crap I produce, but I do intend to make fresh jams eventually. I have a lot of stuff to upload. Enjoi!

I Already Got a Space Baby

Boogaloo: The Gathering - Realms of the Unemployed Expansion Pack

So basically some more of our friends were interested in getting involved with the project, because obviously it is the coolest project currently being projected. Anyway here is the first round of new contributors, and each of them is special in their own way.

Melanie (On the Left) lives in New York City, and her main defining feature, personality wise, is that she is Peter's girlfriend, as evidenced by this picture, in which she is obviously totally interested in what he is saying and doing. Seriously though Mel hails from New Jersey originally, and her interests include such things as the fine artz (she can use paints and stuff), fashion, music, and pop culture. If we are lucky she will write about some of that stuff. But it's possible she'll just talk about Peter. There is a chance I will get yelled at for writing so much about Peter in Melanie's blurb. Anyway like the rest of these people I'll let her introduce herself when she sees fit, and until then you can just look at her picture and think about how much cred that flannel gives her.

Jonah lives in Brooklyn, and is less unemployed then the rest of these people, in that he is seasonally unemployed instead of full-time. When he's not busy not working, he works as a Tour Guide for his family's business, and knows more about New York City and Brooklyn than a book (Provided that book is not about New York City or Brooklyn).  He lives with family, and also Peter, I'm pretty sure. His interests include live music and happenings in general, video games, film, and travel. He's been to Hong Kong and Vietnam, and he is like best friends with Ang Lee. He's gonna write about I don't even know what. I'm tired of guessing what people are going to write about.

This is another Matt, who I'm gonna call Matt K. because the other Matt joined first. But in this blurb I'm just gonna call him Matt. He is from outside Pittsburgh, PA, but is also somehow from Japan. And he is dead set on going back there, probably through one of the "teach english in japan" programs. If for some reason that doesn't work out, he's gonna hijack a cruise ship a la Speed 2: Cruise Control and just drive it over there. His interests include Japanese Studies, Photography, Music (especially heavy stuff), and being a Vegan. Maybe he'll post some sweet Vegan recipes to compete with the other Matt's meat-filled recipes? Matt Vs. Matt Cuisine Battle? Real Life Boogaloo Iron Chef? More like needs to take an Iron Supplement chef.... I needed to give Matt a hard time about being a vegan in this small block of text. (Also he's unemployed)

Nick lives in Maryland right outside of DC with his family. He hates the internet with a fiery passion, but also loves the internet with a secret desire.  He is a man of fiery passions and secret desires, and he is also the third member of The Children & The Animals with James and I.  He spent the summer right after college up here in Vermont working on a farm, and is currently trying to get back to working on a farm. Or any job that fits in with his desires and pays money.  In the meantime he is sticking to a strict regimen of playing guitar for 23 hours a day and reading the bible for the remaining 1. (Really he's studying for the GRE's and thinking about the future.) His interests include guitar, literature (especially russian literature), sauces, and sustainable development. He may write about any of those topics, but like I don't know. Personally I'm hoping for sauces.

So now the team is filled out a bit more. I don't know why Melanie's picture is smaller, but I do know that the reason is not that she is in any way less than Matt K., Jonah, or Nick. How dare you think that, internet people? Maybe I'll make a "who is the best contributor in the expansion pack" poll. Maybe not - I never know what I'm gonna do. That basically sums up my life.
