iPad doesn't do it for me

What do we think about this!? Personally, I am going to have to say that I find it to be a smidge unnecessary as it looks like a huge ass iPhone...maybe I just don't get it. Does it do something crazy awesome...dishes, iron your clothes, drive your car for you..something?!?! And who was the think-tank behind the name--poor form!

Laundry Room

As it's Sunday morning, the last day before I head back to work for the week, I decided I would head down to do my mound of laundry. Living in an aparment building I knew there was a good possibility of running into people, however I thought I would be safe to just scurry down and throw in a few loads. Tell me how I ran into so many new people and families that all wanted to be super chatty in the elevator. This normally would not be an issue as I love strangers, however I am positive that I had a very fashionable style of hurricane hair, dragon breath (didn't brush my teef) and I was wearing the most sweat-stained t-shirt i own. Hot mess, indeed. Lesson learned, never do laundry again.

Zumbalicious anyone?

As much as i hate to admit this, i really love going to the cafeteria at my job. Its always a shit show of employees and outsiders and its fantastic to just sit back and watch them. Another highlight from this past week was something called Zumbalicious. No joke. Apparently they are tyring to promote healthier habits. So not only could you enjoy Latin cusine, but you could also join the energetic/sweaty Zumba dancers. Talk about horrible. Can you imagine being surrounded by the people pictured above while trying to eat your meatball sandwich? Unfortunately I did not see this first person. But one can imagine the debacle of a sight it was.

reality check

Today I complained an awful lot about how my day was shitty and my boss sucks a fat one and I was feeling pretty sad for myself. On my drive home Wyclef's new song, Hold On, came on and I instantly felt like an asshole. Haiti fell apart and I'm bitchin' about my job. I came home and donated to the cause instantly. Some people think its cheesy, but I guarantee he doesn't care what they think. Wyclef made a song for his homeland, what did you do?!

horrific

I realize that I have little to no fashion sense, however...Amber Rose is blowing my mind here. WTF?

--hot mess in an alley--

Below is a very classy Gerard Butler, wearing camouflage cargo shorts and aggressively making out with a woman who was previously playing her violin (found in left hand) and wearing no shoes.. I found this to be both shady and gross.

Ukulele

This morning I woke up and revisited my dreams from the previous night, and realized there was someone playing a ukulele (bizarre, i know); which is certainly an instrument that fly's under they musical radar. It made me think of this artist who I came across a few months ago....Julia Nunes. She has a crazy unique voice and she can rock out on the uke and covers almost ANY song. Check out on of my fav video's http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jaaaaaaa#p/u/15/IvBv99I0-Ok!

:Complaint of the dia: This actually occurred yesterday at work, but I felt it must be brought up. I was at work (i work at a children's hospital) and I was playing with one of my adorable patients. His dad noticed us playing and asked me if I had children of my own. I laughed and said "absolutely not". He then looked quiz-icly at me and said "well why not? You should get started!" EXCUSE MEEEEE?!?! Was he insinuating that my clock is ticking? Or that I am behind on the trend of popping out kids? Pretty sure you don't tell other people when it is time for them to pro-create. I guess nothing is private anymore...ha!

Complaining

You know how everyday of your life someone asks "How are ya?" ?!!? Well obviously I never really tell them what your thinking because in my case it would come out absurd, brutally honest, and perhaps mind blowing. I normally skirt around the issue and just say something to appease the masses. I realize that this is not genuine. I'm not going to tell complete strangers at work my issues... but i will online : ) So i think in an effort to really get things off my chest I will enlist a complaint of the day (COD) to my blog. Just cause it makes me feel better.

today's complaint: my music was extremely loud cuz that's the only way i listen to it. My landlord called me to say that the lady above me was realllly sick and didn't feel well. After I told him that it was "no problem" he proceeded to reassure me that "I am not telling you how to live your life, and you pay rent so do what you want". So i did what i wanted, and im pretty sure the lady upstairs hates me for it.

from one hot mess to another...

obviously Shnookie is one of my favorite hot messes as of late. Clearly she has made a name for herself and that poof. Don't act like you won't be watching the season finale of MTV's Jersey Shore, tonight @ 10pm. You go girl, get down with ya orange self.

Everybody's doing it...

So today I found myself bored to tears as I realized that being out sick isn't all that exciting especially when everyone else is at work. I mean one can only watch so many episodes on hulu. Anyway--as I was browsing my friends blog [http://nightfallsandtownsbecomecircuitboards.blogspot.com/] I realized, why don't I try this whole blog thing out. I write everynight in a journal, so why not just put my rants out for the rest of the world wide web to read. Jokingly my girlfriends and I often comment about how we would describe ourselves as "a hot mess". Its an endearing phrase that we have adopted and I would like to say that for the most part, I do live up to it in my everyday life. I can't fully explain the phrase, but if you were to urban dictionary it you would find: A person who is a handful, he/she is a piece of work, and or a colorful character. I would certainly agree that I am a handful, but a GOOD handful. With that being said I think that blogging will be a refreshing and healthy outlet and perhaps encourage others to be more accepting of the "hot mess" in their life. Clearly, I have no rhyme or reason and I am currently struggling as to how to even post this or change the font...but here's to trying something new.
