What mamacita is ...



Watching
This was maybe the fourth time I tried to watch it.
Why is this movie so bad?

    A better question about The Life Aquatic is why you keep trying to watch it if it's bad. Or are you giving up good movies for Lent?

    I've tried to watch it several times, too. Just can't manage to do it.

    Do you think Texas Monthly has gone downhill? Is it worth a subscription?

    I don't really think TX Monthly is worth it. I remember when my parents would fight over who got to read it first. Now, not so much. Also, I feel like it's San Antonio-heavy. I just bought this issue because it was "Texas Style" and I'm shallow like that.

    I enjoy reading the "Texanist." Sarah Bird is good. But I'm way tired of old dudes like Jap Cartwright. Did you know that the editor is a vegetarian Yankee? Shocking.

    This affirms my lifelong belief that Texans are indeed AWESOME!! Seriously, it's is still one of the most uniquely distinct cultures on the American landscape.


    (You know, I have family from Texas...Tyler and Galveston, my Dad is from there and that's where my half-sister grew up.)

    Peace & Love from Crazy California!!!

    Tyler & Galveston= good peeps, RR. Is that why you were named "Rose?"

    Try watching Life Aquatic like you are sitting in front of a moving painting for a couple of hours. Ha! I did manage to get through it and loved the art direction but I thought it was kinda silly. And, I am just not a fan of Bill Murray's acting - he should shtick to comedy.

Be Awesome for Halloween

Image
You are a total hoser if you don’t dress up for Halloween. Granted, I haven’t dressed up in a few years, but I am about to change that this year. I have an idea … but it’s a surprise! Actually, I have lots of Halloween ideas. I’ve put together a few sample ideas for some of my favorite bloggers. If you find yourself in need of inspiration, send me a link to your blog, or just describe what you’re doing on Halloween night, and I’ll give you a hand. Emily and Rob : Alice and Ralph Kramden ! Soletrain : ODB . Wouldn’t you pay money to see Uncle John wearing a grill? Anyway, I’m sure he already has the outfit. He just needs to accessorize with a 40. Bunny Tomerlin : Goth princess . Because I bet she’s never even worn PVC. (Polyvore set via Haley ) Grosgrain Garage : preppy Jesus – Bonnanos, tunic with gingham trim and a ribbon belt, pearls worn as a thorny crown Megan: Now that she's succumbed to making wreaths , Mega...

The Bikini Wax: An Internal Dialogue

God, this is horrifying. I wonder if she's as embarrassed as I am. OW! Ow MOTHERFUCKER! Okay, this hurts less than childbirth, but only because it doesn't last as long. What is she saying? I wish I spoke Vietnamese. I think I outweigh the entire staff combined. Dude, where is she going? They need a picture on this ceiling. They would probably put up a picture of Hannah Montana. I will not think about Miley Cyrus. I will not think about Miley Cyrus. Hey, I bet my nails are dry. I wonder if the liquor store next door sells ice. Next time I'm paying more for a place with numbing cream. Which is worse -- being her or being me? OW. Me. At times like this it's good to have some poetry memorized. 'Twas brillig and the ... the ... Dammit. HOW BIG IS MY VAGINA? She could have mowed the back 40 by now. God, how come nobody told me this shit was growing halfway down my leg? Did I water the clematis last night? Next time: vodka first. Next time: Vicodin first.

Reading/ Watching/ Listening

 Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.
