The website I am about to start. It begins on Monday. I will routinely embarrass the sh*t out of myself. Come on over and gawk.
I’m not ashamed of being in love with:
1. Ryan Reynolds. And I’m going to go see him in a special, pre-screening on Monday Feb 11th. Got free passes thanks to Lainey!
2. Ryan Reynolds. Oops. Said that already. Now that I am ashamed of.
3. Curry chicken (six helpings, thank you very much).
4. Hot microwaveable burritos.
5. Spending the day at home and NOT working (even though Friday is my work at home day).
6. Warm winter clothes.
7. I am loving local blogs: you, Darren, Paul, Rebecca, etc.
1. Cadbury Creme Eggs. In England, they sell them YEAR-ROUND. Applying for visa now…
2. Jeff Goldblum.
3. Occasional hits of Us Weekly.
4. Handbag blogs, although I can’t afford anything they write about.
5. Jeopardy.
Not that it’s shameful, but I still love coming here and finding you.
And what’s not to love about Donette’s? Especially the white-powdered-spill-all-over-yourself kind!
The selection of music on my iPod Touch. 1992 Alanis, anyone?
Something I ate yesterday. Sorry for being so vague, but it felt soooo gooooood afterwards! I sure wish I could remember what it was.
Easter Creme Eggs
Junior Caramels
Donettes. Note to self: Buy some asap.
Chocolate milk
Potentially, the combination of the previous two
High-speed Internet. Preferably 6MBps or faster. Two of the three local providers offer only 1.5MBps at a reasonable price.
Original Mini-eggs
Oreos
Double Stuf Oreos
Late afternoon/early evening naps
Lost
My heavily tweaked Treo 750
The effort required to tweak the above
Moleskines, even though I abhor the single-use nature of paper
McDonalds almost anything
Dairy Queen onion rings
Heinz ketchup
Caffeine-free Diet Pepsi
Crunchy Jif peanut butter
Lately, Japanese food. There is a terrible dearth of Japanese food around here. I feel guilty whenever I make/eat some and there is someone else in the vicinity because it’s so non-readily available. Almost like I’m expected to give them the Japanese food that I so dearly crave at that point in time.
Fondling my orange iPod sock. I completely ignore the other five colours.
The fact that I have three monkeys, a frog, and a hedgehog sitting beside me, because I don’t usually care for stuffed animals
The fact that I went into a grocery store twice today and came out empty-handed both times. Forgot the donettes.
Reading blogs when I could be doing other, *potentially* more important things. That *potentially* makes all the difference in the world.
1. Watching old reruns of Murder She Wrote, Matlock or Miami Vice.
2. Fried chicken gizzards
3. Still love most of the 80′s fashions with the big hair, clunky jewelry and monster shoulder pads. I wanted to look like the women in Dynasty.
4. Fake pink Flamingos. Oh how I love them!
5. Big hair metal bands of the 80′s.
6. Tator Tots. Actually go to a local bar aka The Highlander here in Atlanta just for their Tator Tots!
Oh my gosh! yay shameful list! You are AWESOME!
- Crappy television, and flicking between 2 or 3 crappy shows at once.
- Turning all the lights on in the house and wasting electricity
- Backstreet boys (what’s with all their songs with the same name? Incosolable, Incomplete, blah blah..)
- Personal emails at work.
Many many other embarassing things. You probably know more than me. :)
Oh my gosh, how I love Donettes. I like the waxy “chocolate” covered ones.
Also:
Undressed on MSN where they make fun of the badly-dressed celebrities
Spaghetti-Os
These jeans I’m wearing which are from Target. The juniors section. And I am 30.
Old Navy rubber flip flops
Taco Bell
Spending all day on Saturdays in sweats on the couch watching What Not to Wear (now that football is over.)
Watching terrible movies with my former roommate just because they had Matthew McConaughey, Michael Vartan, or Dermot Mulroney in them.
Cultural note:
I once shared a fax machine with the as-I-recall newly-launched (1980s) W magazine’s advertising department–all of whom looked like runway models. They would frequently bring me press releases about desiccant dehumidification systems and say something like, “I assume this is yours?”. Their nails were perfect.

Dip a tablespoon into a jar of peanut butter, filling it half way. Dip the same tablespoon into a thing of cream cheese, filling the other half. Lick it casually while reading Cosmo, US Weekly, or People. That is the way I spent my Saturday.
I also played The Sims for a good ten hours; I haven’t played it since I was a teenager and it’s very obvious that I’ve grown up. Before, I would see how many ways I could make my Sim people die or get abducted or something else along those lines. Now I’m all “Okay, she has to go to work. She has to make 3 friends. She has to take a shower. She has to read a book. She has to be very responsible so she’s promoted.” I think on some subconcious level, if I’m able to make my Sim acheive greatness then my own life will turn out the same way.
I Love:
1. frozen pizza (cooked, of course)
2. eating Dove dark chocolate in inappropriate amounts
3. reading The National Enquirer, but only on the beach…
4. when noone’s around and I can watch cheesy TV (like Scarecrow and Mrs. King, for instance.)
Just the one’s I’ll admit to. Sometimes.
bad reality TV (A shot of Love with Tila Tequila comes to mind.) They suck me in cause they are SO ridiculous.
Zoey 101…on nickelodeon. If i miss an episode my 6 year old will fill me in on what happened.
MySpace. yep, i’m still completely addicted.
Ok! magazine. my bff makes so much fun of me for reading the “smut” every single week.
Reeses Puffs cereal. there is nothing better on a saturday morning than chocolatey peanut-buttery goodness.
“Let’s hear it for the boy” – yeah that one was a total secret until now.
Half Baked by Ben & Jerry’s – what could be better than chocolate and vanilla ice cream with brownie chunks AND cookie dough!?!?
I could go on all day…but I’ll refrain. hehe :)
