When Cupid Attacks

Happy Valentine's Day (tomorrow)!

WOTD

Word. Of. The. Day.

Use the word "ferocious" in a sentence at some point today... then come back and post about how you used the word. It's your choice whether you specify the context of the sentence.... depends on if it's more fun with/without that haha.

Make a note to yourself... set a phone calendar reminder... write it on your hand... anything!

Ok... now go forth with your verbal-ammunition for adding "oomph" to your remarks, conversations, and random statements today! Looking forward to hearing any reports back from this.

belated b-day present

maybe it's just me... as far as my blogspot crowd goes... but this news made me jump around like a spastic lil school girl.











Summer 2009 just got 100 times better, in my eyes

thanks to everyone for all the birthday wishes, random presents, text messages, phone calls, and C.E.C. tokens!

What if : (disaster edition)

What if: during the next hurricane season, or noreaster, or snow storm (... HA, yeah right)..... something terrible happened to your house during said disaster. I know, I know..... God forbid this were ever to happen, but in the context of this blog... we all have precious possessions in our lives. I'm curious to know what you would grab immediately when rushing to evacuate your living establishment.

Me? I'd grab my laptop (because of all my music & pictures) and any small boxes of photos & memorabilia within safe reach. My life is constantly filled with music, and as far as photos go... well I take pictures of everything. The boxes most likely contain random notes, trinkets, ticket stubs, autographed concert stubs, etc etc... I'm a pack-rat when it comes to nostalgiac items.

SO yes, what would you grab in the rush to escape??

bringing back the magic

Have you ever had an idea... maybe even something that started as a joke... that eventually became a reality?

Take for instance a Kelly Clarkson concert. Several friends and I joked several summers ago that we should all go see Kelly live @ the VA Beach Ampitheater... since we were often belting out her songs in an obnoxiously loud manner whenever hanging out. We joked about it so much that we ended up buying tickets and actually going. Needless to say... it was glorious.

Fast forward to this past winter break. 2009 was quickly approaching, and several friends and I had jokingly spoken of having each of our birthdays this year themed after something we would have done as a youngster (Burger King party, roller skating, bowling, the zoo, etc etc). It was quite the comical idea... and it seemed like it was leading towards something we'd actually end up doing.

Welp, you can see where this is going.

My birthday is on Friday (24.... yowza) and I will be celebrating with (so far) 20+ people at none other than Chuck E Cheese's. Yes, you read that correctly. It's going to be ridiculous. Old school Spiderman arcade game? Check. Skee ball?? Check. Tickets & prizes & PIZZA galore??? triple check.

Everyone is welcome to join this absurd occasion, if you're up to it. It's the one next to AMC 24. This Friday from 7 til 10pm. If not... don't fret... because there will be pictures & stories to tell, I'm sure.

Best o' the Best (Super Bowl ads)

Whether you like the Super Bowl or not..... it always has the potential for some fantastic commercials, whether hilarious.. or just downright awesome. Here's my top faves from this year

What did you think? What were your favorites?

(side-note : half-time show was LAME.... but Springsteen sliding crotch first & colliding with a cameraman was HILARIOUS)
