Diz Some Bullllllshit

I walk into work this morning and find these movies, and they weren't even in their cases. I was the one that did that. Now I'M going to be the one to put them all away. Correct me if I'm wrong but this seems to be a legitimate reason to rant. The stack has been accumilating all week and nobody bothered to put the movies away. Hmm..


The way I've always done it, I make sure to put all the movies away that were returned while I was working before the next person comes to work. Less work for them. I'm a kind and thoughtful person, no need to remind me.. but the other people that work here just don't seem to get it (they're all male. WEIRD.) "Hey, Miranda's a girl, let's dump this load on her so I can be lazy and not to a god damn fucking thing." (Not that kind of dump..) One person is definately worse than all the other two. I won't name names. It's getting old boys. If I can fuck around on the internet, read all day and still find time to do my job, I'm thinking you should be able to do the same.

  • I'm ALSO thinking it's time for a mother fucking raise. Or a picture of me, framed and labeled "Miranda: Employee of the decade" Either would suffice.
P.S. Hang on to your husbands girrrrlzzzz, I'm newly single ;]

I'm sorry, I HAVE to..

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG


So last night at 12:01 I saw New Moon with a few of my girlfriends and my younger sister.. (and I just want to thank my sister for getting in line at 9am to get us the tickets and best seats!) Anyway.. after like 40 minutes of previews the movie finally came on and the entire theater started screaming and crying.. I may or may not have clapped and gave a little.. "omg omg."

If you haven't read the books and you saw the first movie, then you're obviously going to think that any fan is a complete moron.. not true! I'll be the first to admit that Twilight was anything but a good movie.. if you've read the books though, then you're forced to like it.. you've got no choice in the matter.. it doesn't make sense, but.. that's.. just the way it is..

New Moon was actually a good movie.. everything was better about this one.. the makeup, special effects and ESPECIALLY the acting.. well everything but the werewolf special effects.. come on guys.. reallllllly!! I surprised myself and all my friends and only cried ONCE.. and it was only one tear so I'm not sure that it technically even counts as a 'cry.' Sooo many people are New Moon hating right now, and I get it.. I used to be one of them.. then I read the books and now I'm completely obsessed. Like Ali Larter in Obsessed OBSESSED.. Well, that's all I'm going to say about THAT because this post is probably a fail.

Oh, and I had a sex dream about "Aro" because of this movie. Sex with Michael Sheen.. I don't even.. know.. it was.. weird...

It's A Small, Small World

It's official.. I've been formally dubbed "The Videostore Girl"

AT LEAST once a day (when I'm NOT at work) someone will come up to me and be like.. "You're Miranda right?" Uhhh... I can be anyone you want me to be baby..

Depending on my answer and location, (if it's in a bar then the scenario tends to be a whole lot different..) they usually follow up with.. The Videostore Girl? Psh! Puh leeeeze! I think you meant to say The Really Rad Blog Writing Girl..


The other day while I was perousing the aisles of Safeway I get a.. "Soooo, you're Miranda right? The Videostore Girl?" "Why yes,.. yes I am." "Ok cool." And then they just walk away.. really??? That's it? Don't leave me hangin girlfriiiiiiend! And then a woman just came in, bought Madea Goes To Jail and then asked "You Miranda? I told someone I was going to the videostore and they told me to tell 'Miranda The Videostore Girl' that they say hello.." Well.. swell! The fact that you can't remember the person's name doesn't matter.. at all...

I guess it's just that whole 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon thing..


..And with that I'll leave you with the tagline for my movie (that's totally going to be made about me someday)... "Videostore Girl by day, pill popping alcoholic by night" TM!!

xoxo

Oh, and P FUCKING S.. I'm going to see New Moon at 12:01 tonight. BOOOOOOOM

EPIC


I watched Star Trek last night and.. good. Sooo good. I never watched any of the old Star Trek so I didn't really have any interest in the movie, (plus I'm not that into sci fi) but I watched it because I knew a lot of people would be asking about it and I wanted to have SOME knowledge of the movie. It had me crying within the first 10 minutes. I felt like such a girl.

Then I felt like a MAN because the action and effects were so fucking awesome!!!! The story is good too, not cheesy or lackluster. The only thing about the movie I didn't like was that Russian character. His accent was awwwwwful, and that actor is originally from Russia too which was odd. And Kirk wasn't even my favorite character, I'm head over heels for Bones (Karl Urban, the guy from Pathfinder and the LOTR trilogy) SWOOON

Definately a must see.
*And if you didn't/don't like it then I don't care and you're really stupid.

My Love-Hate Relationship

My job. I love it and I hate it.

Maybe it's not the job itself that I hate so much, but rather the stupid fucking customers. I'm an extremely anti social person, (a customer literally just called me a 'stranger hater') and talking to people all day everyday is not something I like to do. It wouldn't be so bad, but the thing is.. I actually have to be NICE to these people. I don't care that you liked the fucking movie, good for you. Go get another one and get the fuck out of here. That's why I want to work in a bar, this blog would be far more interesting and I wouldn't have to be nice to people unless I wanted to. At least.. that's what I assume anyway..

Don't get me wrong, some of the customers are pretty rad. (And not just the ones that bring me things! Although, if you want to get on my good side, that is what I recommend you do.)

Which brings me to the "Love" part.. some customers.. rule so fucking hard. My drug habit relies solely on the kindness of a select cartel of customers. You wanna barter, you come strait to me.

(You must excuse me for this rant, I need to go to the pharmacy if you know what I mean..)

(Most of the pictures on here do have meaning.... If you watch movies I'd hope you'd understand them all....)

Bad Boys

Mad Men..


HAVE YOU SEEEEN THIS SHOW?!

It's absolutely brilliant. Again, it was one of those shows I didn't want to watch because there was so much damned hype about it. But a dear friend of mine wouldn't shut up about it so I gave it a shot. I couldn't stop watching it! It's seriously all I watched for like 2 weeks strait. It's supposed to be about an advertising agency and the lives of all the people that work there.. but really it's just a show about dudes that drink scotch like water, cheat on their wives constantly and smoke 5 packs of Lucky Strikes a day. It rules so hard. I dislike the main character because he's such a tool, actually, mostly all of the male characters are douche bags.. with the exception of 2 (the 2 fat guys.) The female housewives on the show are easy to pity (poor Betsy) and the overtly sexual secretaries are easy to love (Joan! You get em girlfriend!)

Sadly, I've finished the first 2 seasons, and the 3rd doesn't seem to be coming to dvd anytime soon :[ I shall miss you my new favorite tv show. Until then.. Alias?


Obviously, Betty's my favorite.

Madonna, meet Jackie



So this was my "real" Halloween costume. I hope to god you know what I am. So many girls at my Halloween party just thought I was some chick with weird hair that had blood on my shoulder. You girls miss 4th grade history class or are you just dumb as fuck? No, really.. I'd like to know.

My grandma is mad at me for 'disrespecting' Jackie and mocking the death of her husband, but hey! It's all in good fun! Anyway, this doesn't have anything to do with movies so I'm gonna cut it short.
