I can has a squinty eyed babies?

I just fell in love.

I think her name was Ning Ning and she was no more than 4 years of age.

This is the closest I came to finding a picture of her on google



Imagine that thing walking around and talking.. well I saw it first hand.

I was minding my own business, taking old movies off the shelf at work and I hear a little voice ask "What yous name? What yous doin?" I look down and see a little asian child. I don't normally find anything Asian intriguing or attractive, especially children since I dislike them ALL, but this tot melllted my heart.

I play along and answer her questions, which are (in order): Why doooin that? I can haves one? What is re ranging? Why doings that? I dunno whats that iz? Hewwo?

I was sad to see her go.

I'll never forget you Ning Ning

UPDATE! Ning Ning just came back with her memaw.. we talked about Diego. Then they left because she had to pee and could only hold it "for a little bit longer." Loooove

My Huckleberry Friend..

I'm the type of lass that hates everything that everyone else loooves.

Just to prove a point..

But then somebody always gets me to come around and 'try the thing out' and I end up loving it just as much, if not more, than the central fan base e.g. Twilight, Marilyn Monroe, Sex and the City and now.. Breakfast at Tiffany's!



I was never one for Audrey Hepburn, for no real reason in particular.. mostly because a lot of people like her.. but the other night my roommate was talking about Breakfast at Tiffany's and how good it is and that'd I'd probably like it.. (I have her to thank for talking me into watching SATC) so I figured if she was right about that, she might be right about this one.. and she was.

Breakfast at Tiffany's is amazing, Holly reminds me so much of myself (whether that's good or bad I haven't decided.) You're sucked into the movie the second it comes on, and for such a well shot, quality movie, it's extremely racist, comparable to Gran Torino,.. just.. more subtle.. (which doesn't bother me one bit.) It's witty, pre-ironic (same thing?), and just fun to watch. I'm not sure if guys would enjoy it, but it's definately 'an all girls slumber party' type of movie.

Now I love Audrey Hepburn and plan on watching all her movies. New obsession? Chyeahhh



CAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!

The Inside Job

If I could write a formal complaint to the owners/manager of this place about my coworker.. lemme tell you.. I would. I've had it!

(I guess you could consider this my informal complaint)

I self prescribe myself illegal medication to modify my mental state, and these little blue pills (or are they the red ones?) make me extremely tired the day after. If I don't have to work I usually sleep in until at least 2pm and then lay in bed all day and watch movies. Well, TODAY I did have to work. I got up at 9am and I could hardly keep my eyes open so I went upstairs to make coffee.. all out. Then I remembered I didn't drink my Starbucks from yesterday so I hopped in the shower, ate some facon and came to work.

I turn off the alarm, turn on the lights, clock in.. go to the fridge.. My.. my.. my Starbucks! It's.. GONE!

MOTHER FUCKERRRRR!!!!!!

I got so mad I was literally cursing up a storm and jumping up and down. If that wasn't a Veruca Salt outburst/tantrum I don't know what is.

This has happened on numerous occasions, and everytime it seems to be the time when I need my caffeine the most. It's comparable to coming home from a long days work and knowing you have 1 beer in the fridge, going to get it and then finding out your roommate drank it.

Brain, if you're reading this.. I know it was you. Of course you realize, this means war. I wouldn't leave anything in the fridge from now on..





Have you seen her?

Ferrosh!

Yesterday I finished watching Fierce People, this one flew waaaaay under the radar.

We got it in like a year and a half ago and the cover box was just.. all wrong, so that considering.. and that it was a strait to dvd movie (I think..) I decided to pass.. even though it has Diane Lane in it and I absolutely love her (and saw her walking around 2 years ago and followed her for 6 blocks..)

Here's the cover..


I knowwwww, right! It made me think.. a movie about stupid rich people.. nooo thank you.. but for some reason I decided to take it home the other night.. and I'm glad I did! It kind of reminded me of Igby Goes Down (my all time favourite movie along with The Goonies and Con Air) It was well cast and it had a few interesting plot twists, although it DID kind of just end abruptly. I fell madly in love with Donald Sutherland's character (ME, in love with an extremely old person? Odd.) and I kinda wanted Diane Lane's character to be my mother, even though she's a coke addict.. or.. was?

I'm going to give it a B-

Below I've supplied a visual feast, enjoy

Louis Cypher


POINT PLEASANT

Has ANYONE seen this show before?! I was putting movies away the other week and saw the cover of this tv show and was like.. this seems farmiliar and interesting.. I shall watch it! (I finished The L Word) And I was right, it was farmiliar, I saw the pilot episode way back in 2005, it was about the devil, good and evil and what not.. love the devil, so I decided to continue watching.. this show is sooo good. It only lasted for 1 season which sucks (half of the episodes weren't even aired!)

The plot is pretty much The Omen with a chick, and she tries to be good and not bad.. I LOVED the fact that evil wins in the end, AND it's actually scary! A scary tv show?! Unheard of! And, all the dudes in it are very nice to look at..

That's about it.. watch this.

Come here often?

I haven't blogged in like 2 weeks.

Narf.

I've been in a slump lately.. I keep coming here to post and then nothing comes out.. I've watched soo many movies/tv shows, had so many obnoxious customers and I just can't seem to write about anything! Due to lack of clonazepam? I think so. But I just popped one so let's see how this goes..

(I've been meaning to rant about this for weeks now..)

After I ring a customer up I always ask "would you like a bag or receipt?" and most of the time their answer is "nah, save a tree!" Really? Because it takes an entire tree to produce a 2X4 inch piece of paper? ..AND I'm pretty sure plastic doesn't come from trees.. (right?)

OR they do this (which is even worse and makes me want to slit their achilles)

I'll do the monotonous 'bag or receipt' ritual and they say "no thanks".. then I'll walk away to put the movies on the counter by the door (so the movies don't beep going through the detector mabob) and then they'll say "oh yeah, a receipt" ..for fucks sake! Isn't that what I just asked you 20 seconds ago!? Why don't you say yes in the first place??? Customers do this countless times a day, so I'm like OK it's gotta be me.. I'll say receipt really loud.. results don't change.. I even started saying receipt BEFORE bag.. same thing..

I know it seems like such a small thing to flip out about but it happens so many times a day, everyday, that it's made it on my Top 10 Pet Peeves list..


Fuckin customers

I'ma break yo fone

A customer is waiting at the front desk for me..

He has that bluetooth headphone shit in his ear.. AND he's talking on his actual phone. Point of bluetooth being??? Anyway, I thought he was going to get off the phone.. I thought wrong.. this mother fucker stays on the phone the entire duration of checking out the movie. He literally doesn't say ONE word to me.

I ask for his last name and he just pushes his credit card towards me, so I eventually find him in the computer.. check the movie out to him and then asks if he wants a bag or his receipt.. he just completely ignores me and continues to talk on the phone! Listen mother fucker! Its awkward enough trying to ask you questions while you're talking to somebody else, but to IGNORE me! Don't be suprised if late fees pop up outta nowhere on your account you prick!

That is one of my biggest pet peeves! You do NOT talk on the phone while you're buying something.. I even think it's rude to just be walking around the store talking on the phone. I don't want to hear your conversation! I mean.. unless you're at Safeway or some big store where nobody can hear you.. then that's acceptable. But I could walk the length of this store in under 15 seconds.. so I hear EVERYYYTHING. Annoyyyyying!

I swear to god, the next time somebody is this rude I'm going to take one of our box cutters and shove it into their aorta.. while laughing.. and spitting on them..

This is what they're going to look like.. (pre blood spurting.)
