from an ex blonde via bubbles
Last year I replaced all the windows in my house with that expensive double-pane energy efficient kind, and today, I got a call from the contractor who installed them. He was complaining that the work had been completed a whole year ago and I still hadn't paid for them.

Helllooooo? Just because I'm blonde doesn't mean that I am automatically stupid.

So, I told him just what his fast talking sales guy had told me last year, that in ONE YEAR these windows would pay for themselves!

Helllooooo? It's been a year, I told him. There was only silence at the other end of the line, so I finally just hung up. He never called back. Guess I won that stupid argument.

I bet he felt like an idiot.
 
 
   
 

Valentine's Day Plans
I didn't have any Valentine's Day plans because I'm not in a relationship now (notice how said didn't - past tense).

So I put up a dating ad which has since been deleted, and received at least 60 replies. I stopped counting at one point, and was deleting them faster than you could say "Be Mine" (ok that was tacky, sorry).

I was going to include some of the very dull responses, but decided that would be tacky. Eh, I'll post the memorable ones anyway:
  • "My name is Ho. I'm Chinese and my parents didn't know what 'ho' meant in English." [a winner, truly].
  • "I would like to recommend a movie to you... Love Me If You Dare." [I specified I liked French films, which means I've already seen this film twice. I don't need your recommendations.]
  • "i am not really sure why i am doing this"
  • "I am so over my girlfriend of two years who dumped me on Valentine's Day one year ago, so I'd like to make a good memory this V-Day. My girlfriend... My girlfriend.... My girlfriend...." [no he's not over her. He cont'd to talk about the self-destructive behavior he engaged in and how he had to go to the hospital, because of what he did when he was so drunk.]
  • "i can prove you wrong on all the negativity you'd get from a typical guy" [ok, I never mentioned negativity...this guy must be negative by wanting to try to make me believe he isn't negative when this never came up]. "...not referring to any brain between the legs..." [once again, he is trying to make me believe he is not in it for sex, but he is mentioning it, so it is the foremost thing on his mind].
  • Lots of people said "I own lots of DVDs"... [i don't really care what you own! Sorry... ]
Other eliminating factors:
  • a few people were overenthusiastic about me being a redhead. "I love redheads" meant to me that they're a man-whore and want to sleep with every redhead they can find, so I passed on all them.
  • I had to pass on everyone who was too far away... I specified "Hollywood".
  • I mentioned I was short and was getting emails from people who were 6'2, 6'3" etc.
  • Some guys didn't tell me their names and the address read from: "Yummy" and "Roy Orbison" - PASS!
  • another guy said he bet that I already saw "Cache" which I already did, but I didn't know what his point was.
  • "I know I'm older than your criteria..." I must have gotten 3-5 people who looked at least 45.
Okay... if you've made it this far, I actually got 2 or 3 replies that were good. I decided I'd probably go out with this one guy and try to meet the other 2 guys at a different time.

HOWEVER, I was trying to plan seeing Final Destination 3 with a group of friends (yes, my new movie group that I told Antonio about). And the only day that everyone was free, was VALENTINE'S DAY!  So I figured, why meet some strange guy when I can hang out with my new film group?  We have been seeing everything together in the last few weeks.  It's a bunch of fun, and I have an excuse to see everything that comes to the theater... because usually someone in the group will want to go.  So, this Valentine's Day, I will not have to worry about having to kiss anyone.  I just need to get in the mood to see dozens of people dying in various ways on the big screen.  It sounds perfect, if you ask me!

 
 
 

   
celebrity crush list
E is always asking me if I think a certain actress or a certain singer is pretty, or if I have a crush on a certain person.  So for fun, I will list my celebrity crushes.  There are others, but these are the ones I came up with while writing this.

After looking at this list, I have concluded my ideal female is short, petite, and brunette.  I also like redheads, blondes, mulattos, Latina ladies, and Jewish comediennes :)

Melissa Gilbert (Laura Ingalls from Little House on the Prairie)...how can Sara and Melissa be sisters...ugh!

Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster)

Constance Marie (George Lopez' TV spouse)

Jennifer Lopez

Hope Sandoval

Tori Amos

Milla Jovovich -- since the 9th grade: a cover of Seventeen spelled out Milla's new movie Return to the Blue Lagoon I remember all the pictures with the headline Milla Mania!

Sade -- E brought this one to my attention...since she is at least 40, I hadn't thought of her that way, but E is right (as she is about most things)

Amy Davidson (the redhead from 8 simple rules)

Tiffany Brissette  -- not exactly a celebrity, but I saw her a few weeks ago on the E! channel, and I must say: she has matured nicely :)

Gwen Stefani

Alicia Keys

Alyson Hannigan - it should be obvious by now; I like redheads

Avril Lavigne

Brittany Murphy (post-Clueless)

Winona Ryder

Christina Ricci

Claire Danes

Marla Sokoloff

Alyssa Milano (this one was brought to my attention in the sixth grade: I was playing "MASH" with some of the guys and girls in my class on a field trip.  It was suggested by Marcia that my celebrity spouse should be Alyssa.  I concurred, and to this day, I have had a crush on her.

Jessica Alba (ever since the "new" Flipper)

Dominique Swain - I need a couple blondes on the list

Sarah Silverman - a Jewish girl for variety (no, I think it's just the petite, brunette thing)













 
 
   
 

From 3 to 1.5 guys...

I give up. I am not going meet any guys that are smarter than my eight year old cousin. I am not going to meet a guy that doesn't look like inbreeding just missed him. I swear, Arizona has the funniest looking muthafuckaz. Seriously, "MIB" did their casting call here. These muthafuckaz look like aliens and dress like them too. Don't forget act like them too. I think some of them have hearing loss, because it takes them forever to comprehend what you're saying. It's like you ask a question, and you get a answer for a totally different question. Unfuckingreal. Anyways, went on a impromptu date last Saturday. I got cancelled on two days in a row. So, what was a 'meet for drinks' turns into a night on the town. The guy....we'll call him Bonaducci, as in Danny Bonaducci...LOL. I'm sorry, I've never dated a red-head before. He hasn't an unconventional look, not ugly but interesting. Nice guy. Brought me roses & asked me what I wanted for Valentine's day (that question made me blink fast and hyperventlate. I didn't know if I should run & handcuff him)  I had fun, he was trying to fall in love, and I was hoping he wasn't going to bit the dust like everyone else lately.... Good kisser. Anyways, the whole night he keeps telling me that I'm beautiful and he wants to be me my man yada yada yada. Note: white guys hardly ever come on strong...unless their drunk off their asses. So, he's like maybe we can hook up for a little while the next day...I'm like cool call me.

He calls me and tells me that he has to get his car fixed but he'll be able to drop by around 8. I'm like call and we'll see cuz I'm have to get up for work at 5AM... He never called. So, I'm like well maybe he thought I was being a bitch by the way I said it. So, I call him on Monday, he tells me he's literally having car problems but he's coming to see me. Note: I just rode in that sucker on Saturday.

Long story short, he calls me at 9 like he think he's fixed it, cuz it's running. He assumes it's too late to come over, & he assumed right. I was super super nice. He asks if he can call after his shower & I say I'm gonna go to bed in a lil while. He's like ok, I'll call you tomorrow. Cool.

Tuesday, I yahoo him & ask if he wants to see me this weekend (I was actually making plans with GameBoy & didn't want to pick a bad night for Bonaducci in the process) he say's about about Saturday. I'm like great. He goes I'll talk to you later. I tell him specifically, I have class at 6PM, Why does he type oh I'll call you at 6 just before he logs off???!

So, now on Wednesday, I didn't call him or yahoo him and he hasn't called me. I don't really sweat guys. If I call you more than once a week is sweating to me. I figure, unless you're in a relationship or y'all vibing like that if he wants to see you/ talk to you, he'll call. So, I'm wondering if he wants me to sweat him? I hope not cuz I'm so not good at that stupid shit.

 

IdiotBoy has been silent since Thursday for some reason. His emails have not been as chirper as usual. I wonder if he checks this periodically. I figure after checking something like this  for months and the person still hasn't written anything new in over a year, he'd never check again. Funny, I forgot all about it until he emailed me that day & I googled myself and found it. Apparently, I am Google-able to an extent.

Random thought, ya think Google would get mad if I made and start wearing a I heart Google t-shirt? Or is that copyright infrigment. I really do love Google though lol

 
 
 

   
From a Jack to a King...

Well, for over twenty years, I had blonde hair.  I never dyed it, either, see?  It was natural.  Now I have red hair and I'm so glad.  I don't know what I was thinking all those years.  Oh yeah, I always wanted red hair and green eyes, but I couldn't have green eyes, and I figured half would be just as good.  I'm a person who looks a eyes, too, and red hair really sets off some blue eyes.  I'm all fair, so it almost even looks natural, except for in the back, where there's a perfectly-shaped diamond of blonde hair where I must not have saturated the hair.  Damn.  I'll have to do better next time, but I'm not sure when next time will be.  Apparently, haircolor is extremely caustic to hair, so if I try again too soon, my hair could fall out.  That's a different look, too, but not the one I'm aiming for now.  Yet.

I really love my new red hair.  I like not being a "dumb" blonde.  I don't mind being a dumb redhead, though.  It's fiery.  It's fun.  It's even, pretty sophisticated, I think.  I'll keep it, unless I want to try some dark brown or even almost black eventually.  Blue could even be fun. 

So if you're wantin' some fun, and your hair has been the same color all your life, try some Garnier 100%color.  It'll make you smile, you know, if you like it.  It worked for me.  I'm just easy.  VERY easy.

Terri:  I never knew ya, but I hope the ol' judge has a heart for you and lets you die.  You should have been humanely euthanized.  Starvation is painful.  I think.
