![]() You better get-get-get it, Barack. UPDATE: Obama's victory speech. I'm gonna have to get on an Airtran special for tickets to Washington D.C. for his inauguration. BBQ and red Kool-Aid on the Mall? Oh yes we can! Filed under: News Comments: 2 Comments |

Two and a half years later, and the results are STILL the same:
It's probably because I answered positively to all the raunchy sex questions. What's wrong with a little hot, anonymous, gratifying, NSA safe sex? For the record, I'm still meeting mostly manchildren. Phooey. Filed under: Memes Comments: 1 Comment |

![]() Even though Sex and the City's finale happened over four years ago, Miranda, Charlotte, Samantha and Carrie have never really left the airwaves. And no, I don't mean just in syndication on TBS, WGN or the CW, but in many series that have copied their formula (Lipstick Jungle, Cashmere Mafia, Noah's Arc, Girls Club, etc.) and haven't lived up to the original. Even now, networks are still trying to harness that lightning-in-a-bottle type momentum Sex and the City originally garnered. Seriously, how was a movie NOT in the works? This movie, obviously, is for fans of the show. And honestly, that's how this review is biased. Normally, I try not to review a movie and give spoilers, but rather, I try to talk around the movie. It's not really possible here, for you'd have to have watched the show to get probably 60% of what's going on, from the girls' character quirks to why they drink Cosmopolitans. If you haven't seen the show, then you might want to check out a few episodes (Buzzsugar gives a good list), then come back and read this. Otherwise, the cat will be out of the bag. Or the Blahnik out of the box. Whatever works for you. Filed under: Entertainment Comments: 2 Comments |

After my half-day at work, I met up with Milk-Chan and some of her friends to see the 1:00pm showing of "Sex and the City". When the movie ended, we went to her friend's place for cosmos and talk about the characters, who their favorites were, and how the movie played out. Oh yeah, and talk about relationships and men and how they suck (well, except for the resident token gay). Oh yeah, and I'm going to the early matineé tomorrow morning so I can hopefully put together a review. Somehow, people still think I'm straight…. Filed under: Entertainment Comments: Comments Off |

I was going to make this into a blogcast, but I fired up Audacity, sat down to start speaking…and didn't want to do so. Eh, it happens, I guess. Where were we? Oh yes — work. In a surprising turn of events, most of the events of the last post have all but disappeared. The whole leaving-in-six-months rumor? Squashed. Director of design position with the hottie from the startup? Folded. Senior webmaster position with the non-profit? Still open, but I got some signs it would not be a good move. On top of these things, I've actually started getting recognized for my design work at Big Company, Inc., including a huge testimonial from a customer that actually started crying upon viewing the site. It's nice to be recognized, particularly at a place that prides itself on not recognizing talent. But you know how it goes — when one thing evens out, something else becomes a little off kilter. In this case, it would be…the luuuuuuuuuv life. Granted, I am not in an all-fire rush to get into another relationship, but here's the thing: after Opportunity, it took me a while to get to a point where I was mostly fine with being single. Sure, there would be moments where I'd want someone around, but on the whole, I was OK with it. And now, after three months of being in a great relationship, getting dumped, then spending two months getting over it (we're "friends" now, even though most of our conversations end in arguments), I find myself back in the dreaded position of trying to date in Atlanta. (By corollary, this could extend to any major metropolitan area, and I'm sure Atlanta's faults are present everywhere.) Warning: There are links to some very NSFW images after this point, and I'm not responsible for whatever trauma (whether momentary or permanent) results from viewing these, be it vomiting, expulsion of whatever you're drinking all over your monitor, or screaming like a schoolgirl. Again, you've been warned. Filed under: Love in the Life Comments: 13 Comments |
