"Get your tan on girlfriend."

"Safety first."

Double the neighborhood watch!

"Handwritten."

Got an awesome 'thank you card' from the Wangs. And absolutely loved the personalized message.

"PIC."

Partner in crime for neighborhood watch activities.

"So bootleg."

At the bowling alley sneaking in my own chow.

"Delightfully tacky is what it is."

What is with all the bathroom-mirror pics people take and then gloriously post on Facebook?

"Southern Utah."

I need to go back. The last time I was there, my hair was this long:



Or should I say, this short....exactly 4 years ago.

"Jailbait."

I'm really tempted to buy this but I know I'll regret it when I see everyone's birth dates are after 1990.

"Remy, you sneaky bastard."

"Getting my Pablo Picasso on."

"Beach doggy."

"Going the distance."

"Me and my TEDdy bear."

It was hilarious, absolute riot.

"He loves food and he loves it fast."

Remy is ordering a royale with cheese.

"Julien's 30th birthday gift."

A custom 'Leparoux' track jacket.

"The candy woman."

I've got what you want, what you need. Take yer pick son.

"What's the deal?"

All these [supposedly] good Christian men that engage in premarital sex....you're not good Christian men, btw.

"Taking it back to college."

On the rooftop of The Vantage Point....on a Sunday afternoon.

"Slash and burn."

"Neighborhood watch."

My dog is so effing cute.

"In want of a dance partner."

Why is being single for 3 years starting to seem like a sad story? Bah.

"Well-versed."

It's kind of disturbing how many lines I know from this book [and subsequently, this movie adaptation]....like all of them. Except I am not a fan of Kiera Knightly.

"Boy done grown up."

So I'm sitting here watching "Jumping the Broom" and I'm having a hard time figuring out where I've seen Sebastian....IMDB to the rescue, it's effing ROMEO. Aka, Master P's son. What the.

"Tear-jerkers."

These songs always [always] make me cry:

"Ex-Factor" by Lauryn Hill
"If You Leave" by OMD
"Nothing Can Change This Love" by Sam Cooke
"Excuses" by Morning Benders
"Sea of Love" by Cat Power
"Elephant Gun" by Beirut

"Ridiculous."

Why is the line at Nordstrom Rack ALWAYS 'kill-me-now-long'?!

"There's gotta be a better way."

One of my biggest pet peeves: tangled cords....especially headphones.

"Gross."

The outfit is alright, but seeing it on that body totally grosses me out. No, I'm not jealous because I'm in fatty mode right now. I would never aspire to look like that, it's just not natural. How do folks find this attractive?

"It's pretty much my favorite animal."

Score! Time for a Napoleon Dynamite night, complete with horribly-bad-but-good movies [including the original Nap D of course], the Nap D game, bracelet-keychain-making, nachos, and some dang que-sah-dill-lahs! So excited.

"On the mindless menace of violence."

At the City Club of Cleveland, Cleveland, Ohio April 5, 1968:

"This is a time of shame and sorrow. It is not a day for politics. I have saved this one opportunity, my only event of today, to speak briefly to you about the mindless menace of violence in America which again stains our land and every one of our lives.

It is not the concern of any one race. The victims of the violence are black and white, rich and poor, young and old, famous and unknown. They are, most important of all, human beings whom other human beings loved and needed. No one - no matter where he lives or what he does - can be certain who will suffer from some senseless act of bloodshed. And yet it goes on and on and on in this country of ours.

Why? What has violence ever accomplished? What has it ever created? No martyr's cause has ever been stilled by an assassin's bullet.

No wrongs have ever been righted by riots and civil disorders. A sniper is only a coward, not a hero; and an uncontrolled, uncontrollable mob is only the voice of madness, not the voice of reason.

Whenever any American's life is taken by another American unnecessarily - whether it is done in the name of the law or in the defiance of the law, by one man or a gang, in cold blood or in passion, in an attack of violence or in response to violence - whenever we tear at the fabric of the life which another man has painfully and clumsily woven for himself and his children, the whole nation is degraded."

--a portion of a speech given by Robert F. Kennedy the day after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Bahahahahaha."

Only in San Fran.

"Alcohol-free."

Why is it that non-drinkers end up paying for drinkers? Ie., me. Errrr, grrr.

For my bedroom. Loving this moroccan-esque stencil design.

$8 fanny packs at Ross = score! And the Dereon sequins are coming off!

"Rawrrrr."

I found the perfect storage chests! I love them.

"Completely in love with...."

PK's "The Catch" right now. I can't remember if they played this at their SD Griffin show, but it's got me swooning.


Hard.

"Hot damn."

But the kid just turned 22. And he's a whiteboy....and in some wonderfully-terrible movies.

"Battle Los Angeles."

There's a lot of dead bodies in this movie.

"Home sweet home."

Remy going for a ride around the neighborhood with his favorites: mama and teddy bear.

"My favorites."

Am I the only one that actually loved getting these in their trick o treat bags? Figures....I'm such a weirdo. I'll trade you one Snickers fun size for eight Tootsie Rolls. Price is firm =)

"Souvenirs from Maryland."

Tons of amazing memories and 3 mosquito bites. Of course, I could do without the bites.

"Economically-priced."

Four bucks for chicken alfredo....and it wasn't even all that bad. That's Target for ya'---takin' more of my money.

"Lunch box."

My momma packed me a meal to go for the airport....complete with fruit and dessert cookies! She spoils me. At least I didn't have to spend $10.00 on a stale turkey sandwich at the deli.

"Home is whenever I'm with...."

Remy. I'm coming Remy!!

"Babies."

"Rockville."

"From back when we used to buy cds."

Man, all my favorite cds! Including the first HOT record =P

"High class."

Was I a high school baller? I totally forgot I dropped $$$ on all this crap.

"Best finds."

Wow I left all my good stuff at my parents' house....

"My favorite."

Ahhhh, staying in on Saturday nights means early and productive Sunday mornings.
Well, good morning!

"Brookside Gardens."

"Only at the asian buffet."

Can you pile raw mackeral, greek salad, mac & cheese, potato salad, and clams in black bean sauce all on one plate.

"Hibachi Sushi Supreme Buffet."

My parents read chinese newspaper and eat at the same time.

"The aroma."

"For the symptomatic relief of muscular aches & pains, sprains, insect bites, itching, and headache."

Wow, so effective, but I'm gonna smell like a chinese medicine cabinet all day now....just what the guys like.

"I talk to myself."

A lot.

"Up in smoke."

"Asian delight."

"We've got crabs!"

"Back to the old grind."

Of 355 traffic.

"A mother's love."

So I told my mom I love 'cold' chocolate, so she dropped a couple York peppermint patties in the fridge for me. So cute.

"As J. Cole would say."

"Work out"......at midnight, in your formal wear.

"Powerbombers."

Magnetic bottom shot glasses and glasses.....brilliant! So apparently my friend and his frat brothers invented and patented these badboys.

"Why hello."

MD/DC traffic. I remember this bullshit.

"Appeasing the gods."

So my mother got royally upset when I put my (bagged) sandals, in my purse, on the table. I am offending the table-god. Apparently there are gods at all areas of the kitchen. Stove god, table god....but no sink god. I would think the fridge god would be the most important---protecting your home from serious moochers.
