I'm moving to the San Francisco/Bay Area in a matter of weeks and I'm as excited as I am scared shitless. I've never lived anywhere but Chicago my entire life and here I am leaving my friends, family, and all the comforts of home for...hopefully something better. Before anyone thinks I'm taking these wonderful, wonderful people in my life for granted, let me explain: all...

Unless you're gay, does complimenting a girl on her jeans automatically mean you were checking out her butt? Just wondering because I complimented this girl on her jeans after I was checking out her butt last night.
nephele:
Yes, it does mean that you were checking out her butt. 
So, it looks incredibly likely I'll be moving to the west coast sometime this fall. I'm debating between either LA or the Bay Area (leaning more towards the latter than the former). I'm equal parts excited and terrified (okay, more the latter than the former on that one, too). I know a few people and have contacts in both cities, but I've never lived more...

That sounds exciting. If I get the new job that I mentioned in my blog, I may be transferred in a year to Austin or somewhere in Georgia. I'm holding out for Austin though.
I just started watching Lars & The Real Girl and I have to tell you it's fantastic to watch a movie about someone more insane than me. And if I didn't have a big enough crush on Emily Mortimer before, I do now.
Edited because no one needs to know just how crazy I am.

this makes me laugh so much- no disrespect, i just have been there so many times! editing option not always available!!! 
Lately I've noticed that when I'm feeling really insecure, alcohol and being surrounded by lots of friendly faces helps. Pot, however, usually results in me screaming at people uncontrollably (although they usually have it coming). Weird, huh? Honestly, though? I'm not sure which one ends with better results.
nina_kova:
it's a tough call when they have it coming. i stopped smoking pot over 20 years ago for that same reason.
samling:
that means you have an allergy to pot.
Any of you guys seen that car commercial where those people forget which side the gas-thing is on and some indie rock song is playing in the background? For whatever reason it reminds me of this roadtrip I took with some friends of mine a couple summers back down to see Loretta Lynn play her camp site/ranch-thing. It was kind of a turbulent weekend (I...

Haha, that is a very rational fear to have. Although I haven't witnessed vomiting, I have seen a homeless dude just drop trou and pee on the El. That was an interesting experience..; 
So I was a judge at a Battle Of The Bands at a local university the other night. It was fun, and it was just the distraction I needed from my life at the moment. I gotta tell ya, though, the other three judges were fucking clueless. Seriously, they gave first prize out to some band that looked like a cross between The Strokes and...

Dude, I moved to Chicago yesterday. Drop me a line if you're free to hang out or show me around a bit, 'cause I'm fucking clueless.

Hung over and emotionally distraught - a perfect night for the Valentine's Day episode from the second season of The OC.
Happy Birthday to me.
Happy Birthday to me.
hysanadu:
Sorry to hear that. Hope it gets better. 
nina_kova:
happy belated birthday!
Just curious, but does anyone really think that having a 3-way is the way into a person's heart? Seriously, I just wanna slap some people sometimes...
nina_kova:
it depends on the heart?
brubaker:
Don't get me wrong, I have absolutely nothing against three adults enjoying themselves that way just so long as everyone's straight with one another about it. The person I'm talking about just sat back stunned when she didn't hear back from the guy and seriously thought that this would be the way to win him over. It's not the fact that she did it that makes me so mad, it's the fact that he talked her into doing something that she normally wouldn't do and that she talked herself into doing it thinking it would win this guy over. If everyone would've been straight with one another about it, that would've been fine, but the way it all worked out in the end was that he got everything he wanted out of it, while all she ended up with is a pretty shitty feeling.
So I'm watching this short film from the mid-'90s earlier this evening and I couldn't help but think that this thing might as well have been from the '60s fer crying out loud. It just seems so long ago...I was able to drive and I was even able to vote and buy cigarettes. It's just weird 'cause seems like an entirely different era looking back...

great point! i never really thought of it that way - but it is pretty self-indulgent...but, it's a necessary indulgence...i don't know that there's any way to get out of it, except to feel it and watch the line between indulgence and pity.....
Never in my entire life did I ever think I would get a chance to see Mary Lou Lord's nipples. I don't know how to post pictures (from her myspace page), but...
...NICE!
...NICE!
