I was thinking today, man I can't wait for warm weather. Then it hit me, it's still January! I know, it's almost February, but still, that means 2 more mts of cold weather. Give or take. Sighhhh.
Elliot in the Morning was boring this morning, but I can't wait until they play the Washington Mystics! I don't care if they are girls, Elliot and the class will NEVER beat them! Elliot is like 5'7 and they have some girls that are 6'7! Just put all the tall girls in there and they can pass it over all their heads. Then just drill it into the basket. I really don't see them beating the Mystics. I don't.
So I got the whole Leona Lewis album and it is AWESOME! Seriously, she is going to be huge once her album is released in the U.S. So Britney had another meltdown? What's new? Seriously, GET HER HELP! I read the stuff and I am not even surprised. I am just surprised that her parents aren't doing more to help her; I know she's an adult, but come on.
Also, supposedly the writer's strike might be resolved soon?! Pleaseeeee! I am so sick of there being NOTHING on tv. It's amazing how little tv I have watched since the last episode of my fave tv shows aired. I am on the fence about Cashmere Mafia. I have watched every episode, but I don't love it. However, I think it has so much potential and it could be such a good show so what's holding it back? I don't know, but I am going to keep watching and I hope it doesn't get canceled! So many shows have been canceled (not only b/c of the strike, but in the past year). You know what is on tonight though? No, not AMERICAN IDOL. Okay, yes it is, but I don't give a flying f. L.A. Ink! That's what I will be watching.
On another note, I have stopped or tried to stop reading the news so much b/c I realized it's giving me a very cynical view on life and this world. So, instead of visiting all the news sites 10 times a day and scanning the stories I am down to about 3 times a day and I try not to scan all the stories staring me in the face, begging for me to read them.
On another another note, I have also stopped drinking soda. Shut up, don't even say it. I don't care if it has only been a day and a half! I am going to make it because instead of drinking soda, I am drinking water! Over the past 2 days I have drank probably 5 liters. So yeah, I am aiming to drink about 2.5 liters a day. And before you say, "Oh, just drink diet soda." No, that's what I already drank! It's like crack and not good for you so I am just going to give it up cold turkey. Besides there are sooo many benefits to water! It's amazing. I feel better already, HA.
(For my records: stopped drinking soda on Jan. 28, 2008)

Music foreverrrr
I discovered some greatttt music this week and weekend. I am obsessed with the song Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis. Seriously, I probably listen to it, oh 10 times a day! Then Winding Road by Bonnie Somerville from the Garden State soundtrack is awesome. That's obviously old, but I just discovered it. I need to see that movie again. The given songs that are always being cycled on the radio are great too, not all, but specifically Suffocate by J. Holiday, Poppin' Bottles by Birdman and Lil' Wayne and of courseeee See You Again by Miley Cyrus. LOL, it's been confirmed that I am not the only twenty-something that loves that song.
Can I tell you how much being an "adult" is OVERRATED. Ahhh, bills, responsibility, work, etc. etc. I had to get the normal 40k mile service on my car and it was a million dollars and on top of that they said I need FOUR new tires. Umm, the car seems to hug the road fine when I am speeding through the neighborhood! Furthermore, when it's raining/snowing/whatever it doesn't slip. I am going to look into it.
Have you seen this video yet? Haha, apparently it's a comedian and there's one called Give Me That Top too. Gosh, the stuff on youtube is out of control. Anyone can be come famous for 15 seconds now.
And who has seen the line up for the mega ticket @ Nissan?! Awesome, friends have already gotten it and I think I am going to join. I haven't been to enough concerts lately. And I haven't seen any good movies lately! Soo annoying, the last good movie I think I saw that was great was Breach. That was awhile ago. Everything else has been lame.
Also, is it too much to ask for good service and good food when you go out to eat?! Apparently it is because out of the last 5 times I have been out, only one restaurant has been worth it.
The Hokies may have lost to Duke, but they beat BC on the road in OT! Woooo!

Rockin' the suburbs
Well, guess what's going on right now?! The HOKIES are hanging w/ the lame, beloved, bandwagon Duke blue devils. It's half-time so there is still a lot of time. I hope the Hokies can pull off a win. I hateeeee Duke (and UNC for that matter).
Anyhow, tomorrow is Friday... awesome 4 day week this was and I mean AWESOME. One of the best weeks of my life. I can't tell you why right now, but maybe in the future. Are you one of themany people STILL watching American Idol? Yeah, I quit about 476734647 years ago, but mom and sister still enjoy it every single night. Therefore, I see bits and pieces, but I missed last night. So, I missed the famous Amy Catherine, Amy, AC, whatevs. Haaaa, hilarious. She probably will get on people's nerves. My favorite part was when Elliot in the Morning kept randomly playing it. So perfect. And I don't really have much else to say today unlike Tuesday.
HOKIES 43, Duke 49. LET'S GO.................... HOKIES!!!

Still fighting it
What a day. Actually past few days, don't even know where to begin. I cannot believe Heath Ledger is dead! So sad, he is the last one I thought I'd see as a breaking news bulletin on msn.com. Britney Spears? Yes. Amy Winehouse? Totally, she's still alive right? She needs help.
Next thing and only briefly because I am sure you will think it's boring, but the economy? I am worried for our future, for where the country is going?! I am thankful I am young and hopefully have a full life ahead of me. This isn't good for people on the cusp of retiring. The fed cut the rate again... great, band-aid on a gun shot wound. I just can't believe people acted like this wasn't coming. OF COURSE the housing bubble was bound to burst. And shame on you if you bought that 500k house you COULD NOT afford. Even worse, you bankers, mortgage lenders and your sub-prime bullshit. You all should be indicted and go to jail. Yeah, I said it. The buyers should have looked into the sub-prime mortgage loan and also taken a moment to think, "gee is this too good to be true?" YES!!
And, did you know that the world is going to end on Dec. 21, 2012? Yep, look it up. No I am not a religious zealot. If you look it up, it's scary. It's not only Nostradamus, the bible, and all that hoopla. There are scientific facts and scientists (Albert Einstein) who predicted it. The poles might shift causing massive earthquakes, tsunamis, and hurricanes! It's also based upon the Mayan Calendar. I know, I know. How many times have they said the end is coming? I mean, I still have left over bottle water and packaged dry food in the basement from Y2K. I mean, what?! JK, JK. It's seriously disturbing though and I am not saying I am scoping out a cave right now, but it's just interesting right now. We don't have any regard for human life, this earth, or what's going on in the world. I am just as guilty as the next person. Either the world didn't used to suck as much or I was just a naive, sheltered child. I am going to go with the second revelation. It made me think (crazy or not) what if I have less than four years left? Is what I am doing with my life fulfilling and worthwhile? How much will I not get to do? Do I sweat the small things too much? Do I get pissed off @ drivers on 66 when it really doesn't matter? Yeahhhhh, but then again I might not be alive in 2 years. I might be alive for another 67 years. You never know. Have I depressed you?!
Okay, moving on to random topics and (yes happier). I don't think I could ever be famous because the paparazzi would catch me doing the stupidest things, acting a fool. I thought this to my busy head as I drove down Routes 50 and 15 on my way home this evening. I was singing @ the top of my lungs, switching radio stations (yes I knew every song on every station), dancing like a moron (I'm sure), and snapping - somewhat to the beat. This is just a small glimpse of the things I do in the car.
How wrong is it that Ilike love Hannah Montana Miley Cyrus’s song See You Again? Seriously, jammed out to that too and I am not ashamed.
Like I am listening to it right now?! I can't wait to see you againnnnnn. I've got my sights set on you. Ohhhhhh, rock out like you're 12. Ok, sorry. Totally uncalled for.
Also do you drive a Subaru WRX? Not sure what that is? Lucky you. Please see above for the ugliest/most annoying/yet people who drive them think they're so cool CAR. I hate them. If you drive one, I don't hate you. I hate your car. FIRST of all, it's a SUBARU! Second of all, it's all 'souped' up and it looks even uglier. Lastly, you think you're sooo cool in your little 6 speed dropping in and out of traffic. Oh and your exhaust is too big and ugly as well. Do I sound 6? Well I like Hannah/Miley, remember? Sorry, I know that is so random, but I think I see that car about once every 2-3 days and it never ceases to make me think "ughh, gross."
By now, you are either thinking 1. this bitch has a case of the crazy (I haven't been hangin' w/ Brit) 2. I can't believe that ho be makin' fun of my WRX or 3. OMG, I totally love Hannah/Miley too!

Livin' in a dreamworld
I am so excited that as I write this it is Sunday and I do not have work tomorrow. Happy Martin Luther King Jr Day - a little early! Three day weekends are the best and this was a good weekend. I saw the Heartbreak Kid last night though and it was lame. Thought it was going to be better, but the best part is that it was only $1! Yep, dolla dolla bill. Redbox is the best and I found out there are 3 near my house! Wooo!
I am drinking a protein smoothie/shake that has egg whites in it. It's foamy, good, but not sure how I feel about it yet. I can tell you how I feel about this cold weather... I HATE IT! Grgghhh... I need to move to FL or Cali.
I want you to listen to RILO KILEY, specifically silver lining and dreamworld, but it's all awesome! Love them. Music is so awesome. Since tv is disappointing me so much lately, I've been listening to more music online. Not only is the writer's strike getting old, but the last episodes they had in the can were pretty lame! It's like these are supposed to be cliffhangers?! BORING?!
And how about this "economy stimulus package" or tax rebate. By the time we get them won't the economy already be in the shitter? I mean, I'd love to have an extra $800 (rumored), but I think it will/is a little too late. Furthermore, it's taxed!! HOORAY, tax rebate that's taxed! Love it.
Patriots are going to the Super Bowl... shocker! I'm glad because it's just more time we all get to look @ Tom Brady. Spshh, Gisele, back off.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it NOT!
See, I'm gonna tell you.... how I hate this snow. It seriously is not cool for me anymore and I don't understand why you people like it unless you're 7. If it gets you out of school... AWESOME! If you get to go skiing in Vail, even better, but I had to drive home from work in it and I don't appreciate it. If you're one of those people who don't care either way - I guess I get that, but so many people like it and I don't get it! I left work an hour early and surprisingly, traffic was great! It moved the whole time, other than being a little slow, I never had to stop like usual.
Anyhow, I also had to miss my work happy hour! And let's face it: that's the real tragedy here. I figured I wouldn't be getting to happy hour until 5:45 and then I would be there 'til about 8:30 and the roads would just get worse. So, I took one for the office and didn't attend. It was hard. I must say though, my driving once I got into my neighborhood was impeccable. I mean, I drive a jetta and since VDOT (yeah, you suck as usual) didn't bother to plow my street it was rather treacherous. However, I was able to barely slide AND get my car in the garage. Balllllinnn' or drivvinnnnn'!!
How awesome is that acoustic version of sweetest girl? I am seriously in loveeee with the song and Dave Patten. I am so excited for this weekend!! Three day weekend is in sight... holla Martin Luther King Jr. Andddd, the best news? The Hokies were victorious last night in a HUGE win against the lame wahoos! So exciting and in case you missed it, of course you can jump up and down like I did when you watch this.
Will I talk about Virginia Tech in some way, shape or form every blog? Umm, probably! Do I have an unhealthy obsession my alma mater and sports teams? Possibly, but I don't think so.

Dolla dolla bill. where did the weekend go?
Hi Folks!
Another weekend has come to a close and once again it's time to go back to work. Lame, the weekends fly by. Except Friday seemed to be the longest day of my life since I didn't walk through the door until 7 a.m.! Yeah, then the whole day was wasted because I slept 'til 3. Come on people, you didn't expect me to sacrifice my 8hours did you? Beauty rest.
I'm writing in orange in honor of the Hokies since it seems our whole team is going to the NFL next year. First Brandon Flowers, now Macho Harris and Branden Ore might be next. And NO, I did not spell BrandEn's name wrong... that's how he spells it. Can Bryan Stinespring go with them? Except we all know he is nowhere near good enough for the NFL. So he should be demoted to OC of Stonewall Jackson High School.
In other news, how sad is it that they found that pregnant marine dead? And the alleged (we know he did it) killer is on the loose! Supposedly he is on his way to Texas. Greattt, so then he can jump on down to Mexico.
Sidenote: Back to sports, how funny is it that the Cowgirls lost?! Love it!
Now, onto Southeast D.C. where the woman was arrested for killing her 4 daughters. I cannot believe their bodies may have been there since May?? Didn't the 30 members of Benita Jacks family that showed up to support her in court wonder where they had been? You would think they might have wanted to see them in the summer, Labor Day weekend, Thanksgiving, Christmas?! Furthermore, social services couldn't track down their address when they received calls about them, but U.S. Marshals had NO problem getting the address to evict them?!? Sketchy? Yes.
And onto Northwest D.C. I love Georgetown and I wish I wasn't a poor twenty-something so I could live there. It's so nice, fun and there's so much to do. Maybe one day.
Who wants to place bets on whether Britney Spears will show up to court tomorrow? I am betting she won't because well, that's how she rolls. Yes, I had to comment on this. What's a day without some news about Britney Spears?!
The bad news is tomorrow is Monday, but the good news is it's another morning to listen to Elliot in the Morning on DC101. I seriously missed their show so much while away at college. It's the only thing that keeps me from getting into a bitch fight with you fools on 66. Stop tailgating me; in case you didn't notice there are 3438954745 cars in front of me and I can't move any faster unless I jump into their trunk. Back it up!
And I'm out.
