Pauly Shore In A Light Vinegrette

We just went to the House Of Blues for a lunch date with some friends who are getting married. He's from Salt Lake City, she's from Hemet, California which is the armpit of the planet, well almost, right after Baker, Barstow and Victorville. I love the atmosphere there, LOVE. I'd totally decorate a room in my house in all Voodoo lovin and art. Totally. Its so sweet.

Anyway, the baby was charming everyone in there, standing on the table when we'd hold his fingers and stuff, and because of it, we had excellent service. I had catfish nuggests with sweet potato fries and a field greens salad with goat cheese and pecans in a tomato/shallot vinegrette. Hot damn, it rocked my socks.

So yeah, while we were there, we saw that Pauly Shore is coming in "concert".

Huh?

Wtf?

Concert?

K, I'll let you absorb that for a minute:



















done? K good. Now, can you explain it to me? Please?

Rearranged Our Entire House Tonight

And we spoke no words, but just nodded and smiled at eachother (the hubs and I) as we would pass because we can't, and I mean CAN NOT get enough of M.I.A.

That chick is hot. Mmmm, Sri Lanka via London...oh and her dad is like...a freedom fighter and its sweet.


then, when Arular was over, we were obsessed with the ess oh VEEEEE!!!! (sov aka Lady Sovereign) If you wanna hear what makes her impressive, FIND FIND FIND the song "little bit of shhh", its remixed by Adrock, and y'all know that can't be bad. She's a badass, I dig her mucho graciasosososooo. I'm certain our neighbors hate us. We likes it loud for hours...not just our music. I KEED! No, I don't, ok, yes wait no...I don't.

so good, gosh damn. Its times like these that I remember why Mike and I love eachother so much. Music + us = hell yeah

Chow Yun Fat

is going to be the bad guy in Pirates 3. HELL YEAH BEBEH!

Also, I'm going to be looking for another job here in Vegas so I don't have to move. I'm having panic attacks at the thought of it although I love Seattle. I have yet to tell my boss, so DON'T SAY ANYTHING, BETCH!

Such An Awesome Show

We went to a show last night and saw these guys

They did this dance live. These guys are hilarious, and you all know that if boys are talented and funny, I'm all over it.




This next one is my favorite of theirs, at 2 minutes 32 seconds...I laugh every time. They sang this but alas, no treadmills were to be seen on stage. It's cool. I'm still going to marry them. Oh, and I'm gonna go see them in LA next weekend and San Diego in November. Their live show is just that good.

Love - Mackenzie



K bye.

Wednesday, October 18, 2006

For my sweet baby Chairkicker/Jay/Hazel Motes

I loves you very very much, BETCH!

I Can't Get Enough Of:

  1. diet Coke
  2. Red Vines
  3. the Walk The Line soundtrack with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon singing all of the songs.
  4. Excederin


I'm gonna die without these things I think. Seriously.

Here's why:

  1. diet Coke, my mother drank it, we used to steal it because she'd never let us have it so when we did get our mitts around a can of it, we thought we'd just won the lottery. Hence forth, I am an addict.
  2. Ok, um, no reason, I just need to tell you I've NEVER, EVER EVEN ONCE in my life gone to the movies without them. Ever. I go before hand and make sure I buy soft ones. Every time. I'm OCD, sue me. I also just likes what I likes...
  3. First, Joaquin Phoenix = so so so hot. Scars and all. Omg. Secondly, his deep voice, all Johnny Cash like. Oh, don't get me wrong, I loves me some Cash, but holy crap...when JP sings deep like that, I melt into a puddle of passionate mess. Whew, I need a shower for real. I love deep voices like no other. Somebody help me. Plus, I think Reese is the cutest actress alive. She's so cute.
  4. I get headaches daily. That's all. Oh oh! And it has caffeine as a bonus! yay!
the end.

ps, deep voices + me = panties off.

Also, so you know my state of mind right now...I have all 4. Yep, now would be the time to ask me for money. I'm happy.

my kitchen counters are covered in mail, new dishes i have purchased but not yet washed and put away, paperwork, laundry, not-yet-put-away-groceries, and baby toys.

so your kitchen looks pretty darn clean to me.

Alli Castaspella says:

first off, I have dishes for you...remember, I had too many before I got remarried last year to a man who had a completely furnished house before moving here...I would have stocked your cabinets totally up.

second of all, I guess it does look ok. I'm a bit ocd since my divorce...I guess I figured new life...new start.

second of all, i guess since you have a husband who actually loves you now, it seems more worth it.

Shark like a fox: god if i only had money to burn...and by burn i mean spend

Me: I could get you a job as a teller at WaMu. You'd make between $9-$12. Seriously. Just say the word kid. Wait til I move there, we'll get a house with a basement/split level. You can move in and we'll find a nanny to come in and watch our 3 babies. Yep. I said 3 babies. I think I'm pregnant.

Shark like a fox: 9-12 an hour wouldn't even be 2000 a month take home. :o( That's hard to
live on in Seattle. i made $15 to $20 at the restaurant, but im' neve working there again. that place gets you pregnant! i need to finish my degree! sigh..... i'm a looosah.

i wish to win the lottery. last night i was having crazy fantasies about 55 million dollars. my only problem is that i dont buy lottery tickets. so winning is going to be complicated............sigh. but when i DO win, i'm buying a ginormous house that will hold all of us. you know...10 bedrooms with a maid and a home theater.....that sort of place. your family can totally live off me. i dont mind a bit.

also.....you get pregnant a lot! you're the most fertile lady i know!!! except for me.

Me: $2000 a year when you're living in a house I rent that has a Mother In Law cottage in the back that you rent for whatever you can afford will be a LOT of money. Especially since we'll eat all meals together and share a nanny.

You need to play the lottery. Post haste, I have a feeling about it. Also, I will totally live off of you if you win...I promise. PS, now what? Should I get a test? Mike will off himself, I'm sure of
it.

Shark like a fox: and if i was still getting DSHS, i could get a nanny stipend (and you could
too since you have 82340234 dependents) so our nany wouold only cost us like $90 apiece a month. i have a feelign about it too. but i always talk myself out of it. when we get our mansion, we need a "bamboo room." with a pond in it. yes? get a test. it's better to know sooner.

Me: DAMNIT I wish you were still on welfare. Ok, so that's perhaps the most awesome thing I have ever said. You should blog about it. I miss our blogs about convos. You go get lottery tickets, I'll go get a test. Also, we should have a rap room, only for rap listening. Dre, Snoop, JayZ, Xibit. You know...

Shark like a fox: i AM still on welfare. and so long as i make less than $1975 a month, i shall stay on welfare. i miss our blog convos too. we are so funny!!!!!! omg i think i totally will buy a lottery ticket.....but.....i dont even know how. that sounds crazy? seriously, i wouldn't know how to tell if i had a winning number. or how to buy one. or anything. i'm lottery-stupid. and a dressing room....with lots of costumes and mirrors and make up and those lighted make up tables. for....you know...dressing up.

Me: Hooray for welfare!!! I think I actually qualify for it when Joe isn't paying me, and I bring home about $4000 per month...but I do have 326626172 dependents, you're right. Anyway, Joe got his court papers today, called me and said "can you wait til Friday when I'll give you $1000?"


I said Sweet MAMA JAMMA! HELL YES! Not really, I actually said "I guess. Whatever"

Ok, I admit, I don't know how to play the lottery either. I suck.

Shark like a fox: here....calculate your eligibility.....it will also tell you how much you'd have to pay for daycare. http://www1.dshs.wa.gov/esa/TEC/

ummm Kyle called me and said "if you drive over to see me i'll give you money" but what that actually means is that he'll fill my gas tank. because he spent all his money on booze and cigarettes. sigh. so i called the child support office and apparently they "had the wrong address for him" despite the fact that i gave them the correct addres...the address i have mailed numerous things to....and he has received them....but apparently, they couldn't seem to get paperwork to him for the last 4 months....bullcrap. a friend of mine who works there says that if you dont call everyday and nag, your case will never progress. motherf'er.....

there's got to be like a "how to play the lottery" website or something....

i want my 55 millions!

Me: Kyle is a retard. So is the state of Washington. Nuff said.

Do You Watch Lost?

Well, if you do, you'll know that sometimes its a re-run for absolutely no reason. Or sometimes, they just do re-runs for 29903 weeks in a row and just when you're just about to stop watching, they throw you in a super awesome new one. Well! I've found the cure for the "is it new tonight?" blues...

Go Here to see it. (islostarepeat.com)

Standoff

There's a standoff right now with a student who has a 25 automatic at a high school about 4 miles from my house. Sweet.

I'm moving.
