Happy Birthday Shane!!

November 19th, 2012

I cannot believe it has been a year since Shane’s AMAZING birthday week in Vegas!!

Unfortunately for Shane, #41 is completely opposite of #40. Instead of basking in the luxury of the football suite with our favorite peeps today, he is slaving away at the company who has CANCELLED OUR THANKSGIVING.

My pledge to all you Shane fans out there: I will work some bourbon into the mess of a Monday. (Everyone knows how Shane feels about MONDAYS!!)

Happy 30th anniversary, best Halloween EVER!

October 31st, 2012

Wow, time has really flown by since LEAP DAY!

My bad!

One reason I keep this blog going is so every year I can post my favorite Halloween pic of me and Carlos. 30 years ago today, we took the neighborhood by storm and Carlos walked away with the GRAND PRIZE. YAY CARLOS!

This year I am dressed as a sad shut-in hoarder

Party of Sigh

February 29th, 2012

Another hilarious revelation since yester-LEAP is the descriptor “Party of Sigh” for those of us who sigh the day away. You probably don’t realize how much you sigh, but I’m sure the people who sit around me at work and at life are QUITE familiar with the Party of Sigh. they just probably (definitely) didnt put a clever late-90′s pop culture reference to it. Until I heard it fully characteried by coots, I didn’t fully acknowlege that I am pretty much Nev Campbell, weird sister who plays violin, drunk ass Bailey, stupid buzz kill matthew fox pre-titty-twister, goddam baby Owen AND Jeremy London in the Party of Sigh.  

SIGH

much as there needs to be a sarcastic font, there also needs to be a sigh punctuation mark. save me some characters on my text limit yo.

I LOVE ART

February 29th, 2012

isn’t art great?

I FUCKIN’ LOVE ART!

i dont think we properly appreciate the residual value of that momentary nibble of happy that a good piece of ART gives you…MMMMM

shane excitedly reported to me last week that the SCREAM is going to be auctioned. He KNEW i would hypothesize that my friends and I should all chip in to purchase and time-share it. Wouldn’t that be fab? what is your favorite?

Mine is still Manet – Luncheon in the Grass

But these days I could make such a compelling argument for Van Gogh’s Crows.

it will help when i come back and add the art later.

oh and p.s: shoes, purses, bangles, and earrings TOTALLY count as ART

FUCK EBAY

February 29th, 2012

Up until today, I was a pretty big fan of eBay. In fact, one might say I LOVED THEM. (shane is going to LOL when he read this, because he has been watching me stumble around like a giddy school girl for eBay and they basically date raped me and left me with no ride at the taco bell today). And I guess they did help me finance all of my new ART. But now they are just THE MAN to me, and thus, I will continue to use them and let them use me, but I am no longer pretending that we are all some big happy fucking community. It is still the big guy against the little guy. FUCK EBAY.

But in a couple of leap years when I stop being mad at them, I will tell you all about my love affair with eBay and how I was once even an EBAY RISING STAR!!

AGAIN, FUCK YOU EBAY

with all your pacific time zones and

uncapitalized letters and

stupid buyers and

paypal affiliation and

touchy feely BULLSHIT

KISS MY ASS

LEAP DAY: a retrospective

February 29th, 2012

Since LEAP DAY only comes around once every 4 years, I have to ask: are we doing better than we were last LEAP DAY?

The “optimist” in me says that if you are still here, you at least broke even…..but the world seems to be on a steadily downward trajectory….I am about to look at last LEAP DAY, through the Bitch du Jour lens, to see what has transpired since then…I am older and fatter, but I think about the same level of disillusioned and pissed. This particular LEAP DAY was a total kick in the nuts, work-wise, but I bet it was 4 years ago too.

Here is what has happened in BdJ world since yester-LEAP DAY, without looking, off the top of my head:

  • OBAMA is elected!
  • wendyg wedding
  • shanana wedding
  • laurawindy wedding
  • oldnewoldfriend wedding
  • one job change for me
  • one job change for shane
  • RIP PEPPER
  • welcome Johnny!
  • major advancements in people’s ill-placed cell phone pride
  • SHANE TURNED 40!!
  • NEPHEWS!!
  • ok i just got a job-offerish email so I will publish and then update later, i know i am on the clock!
