It's really weird and awkward for me to hear that someone thinks I'm pretty. Smart? Yes. Funny? Sure. Pretty? I never felt pretty. I worked on being smart and funny to make up for not feeling pretty. Anyone else know what I'm saying?

I'm not fishing for compliments with this post, by the way. Compliments are great, and I can accept them graciously, but they...

Yes ma'am. All the best girls think like that, in my book.

I just wish they all realized how much prettier they are when all of those other wonderful qualities are factored in.

Today two of my students-- adult, non-native speakers to whom I teach English-- asked very important questions.

Me: Now that we've finished this page, do you have any questions?
Student A: Yes. How do cats make babies?

Me: The difference between the conditional and the future is ---
Student B: Are you single?


Who wants to be me for a day? I'll consider all...

People who don't dance are seriously unfun. As are people who care more about material objects than other human beings.

When and how did the people around me get their priorities so screwed up?

Not dancing in NY is status symbol for music snobs trying to be to cool for school. If you go to a show to hear music, and it's the right type of music, you should dance your ass off.

Yeah I don't dance. But us unfun people don't really care what your funny tribe thinks either so it's cool. tongue

SGNY: supporting public nudity like it never went out of style.

Wait... did it ever go out of style?

Lola's karaoke hits:

The Shirelles, "Will You Love Me Tomorrow"
Duran Duran, "Hungry Like the Wolf"
The Doors, "Back Door Man"

I retired "I Touch Myself," since most of my friends have seen it a million times.

It was much fun to see some people from school whom I haven't seen in a while. They've got all sorts of crazy life shit going on: changing...

Hmmm... I usually go with "Come As You Are", "Come Together", "Come on Eileen", and "Cum On Feel the Noize"...

ARRR!!!

When I karaoke, (which is once in a blue moon) I usually stick to duets or group songs. My last 4 karaoke songs were:

The Spice Girls - Wannabe (complete with 4 other chicks)
Rick James - Give It To Me Baby (That shit should've been taped - it was karaoke GOLD!)
Nine Inch Nails - Closer (D-to-tha-R-to-tha-U-N-K)
Sir Mix A-Lot - Baby Got Back (I was the dancer who was little in the middle, but had much back)

I may need some karaoke soon!

I miss you. kiss kiss kiss

I'm against the death penalty in the first place, but this is really fucked up:

Despite pleas from the White House and the State Department, as well as an international court order to review their cases, Texas will execute five Mexicans on death row, a spokeswoman for the governor said Thursday. - James C. McKinley, Jr. New York Times

In a matter of international law,...

texas is stoopid

Best of wishes to your grandmother. I hope that you are okay as well.

As for the death penalty in Texas, they should realize that even Texas justice has to bow down to International Law. If the crime happened where I live, I would have still bowed to International Law. After all, they may see the bigger pictre of things. Secondly, the Texas State Court should realize that the World Court is only reviewing the case, not necessarily halting the executions permanently.

I must concoct exciting plans for this weekend. I'm thinking debauchery of some sort. Suggestions are welcome.

***

Update: How could I forget? My friend is having her annual karaoke blowout birthday party Saturday night. Hilarity will definitely ensue, and the forecast for debauchery looks promising, as well.

Debauchery is ALWAYS a good thing; I've been getting plenty of it this summer, but I always want more smile

Damn, I need a part to go to

I'm pretty sure one of my coworkers wants to do me. So I bend over a lot in front of him. Is that wrong?

i dont have a problem with it. what fun is life if you cant fuck with other people?
astrokill:
It's wrong if you don't like him or are attracted to him, but wanted attention. If you do like him or are attracted to him, you can flirt a bit and see where it goes.

Hooray for me being all social and stuff these days. I even hung out with SGNY people last night, and I haven't done the SGNY thing in... 4 years? Yeah. I guess I was on sabbatical from my life, but I'm trying to get things back to normal.
