AND!
Sorry about the insane, verbose dump in the last entry. No editing, it just spewed forth, so it’s probably pretty rambling and all over the place.

My mom’s father fell down and broke his hip. Yes, I know the jokes about old people doing that, but turns out it’s pretty serious. Mostly in this case because my mom’s mother is completely losing her mind to dementia. Her dad (from here out known as Tom) would take care of her mom (now Ann) because she would wander off or forget things or get lost in the middle of her sentences...

AIM conversation concerning "The Holiday"
Adri: I wish more people would cast Jack Black in roles other than ‘funny fat friend’
Lindsay: yeah. i think he can be super adorable. when he’s showering regularly, like in the Holiday.
Adri: I think he’s pretty brilliant
also, I feel like it’s a good thing that bigger dudes are getting more roles, like a step in the right direction. I mean, they have WAY more opportunity in entertainment than big women, regardless, but it’s nice to see the typecasting opening up a bit
Lindsay: yeah i can’t wait to see the comedy about not conventionally attractive women who are slackers and hang out with their friends smoking pot and then grow up for some insanely successful and hot dude.
that sounded sarcastic and it’s TOTALLY NOT.
Adri: haha
We need the chick Seth Rogen, is what you’re saying?
Lindsay: yep exactly.
Adri: There’s Queen Latifah
Lindsay: who is getting with the dude equivalent of like Katherine Heigl…who would be Jude Law i think.
so lots more shirtless Jude!

In the middle of the news conference with Mr Maliki, Iraqi television journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi stood up and shouted “this is a goodbye kiss from the Iraqi people, dog,” before hurling a shoe at Mr Bush which narrowly missed him. Showing the soles of shoes to someone is a sign of contempt in Arab culture. Muntadar al-Zaidi was quickly wrestled to the ground and hauled away With...

These things really happen to me.
Me: [coffee shop], This is Lindsay.
Him: Hey Lindsay...do you know who this is?
Me: Nope. Can I help you?
Him: Do you want a hint?
Me: Sure.
Him: Actually I can't tell you.
Me: Can I help you?
Him: Do you want to listen to me while I stroke my cock?
Me: *click*
Ok, first of all, I might want to listen...but only if I know who you are. That could really go either way. Second, I keep thinking it's probably a customer and then I feel weird because it's an off feeling to feel like a dude comes in there and talks to me and knows he called and I don't. I hate when the power balance is off. I want to know more about other people than they know about me. Third, who the fuck gets that crazy at 8 fucking 30 in the morning?

Tonight I go to the xmas party for work. With coworkers I don’t actually like. But there’s a steak involved. A different party after. And maybe, depending on how late we leave that party, possible going to see Milk. My BFF Sunny will be my date tonight. Luckily the dirty puns will be flowing like that wine I probably won’t drink. I think I’m still pretty shell shocked...

Don't read this. I hate this. It's stupid.
The city lost my car. It’s not where they said it’d be, nor any of the other locations of that shop, nor any shops near that one or anything that sounds like it. The insurance guy is already saying it might be totaled, despite the fact he obviously hasn’t seen it because…um…it’s lost somewhere. It can NOT be totaled or I’ll freak the fuck out because I...

Naughty or Niche
Do you ever get the feeling you’re “that person” in your respective group of friends? I think I’m the sex person.While I’ve thought that before, two things this week have distinctly led me to believe it’s true. So my friend is having a holiday party tonight. It’s themed “Naughty or Nice”, everyone bring a sex toy and we’ll exchange kind...

Drives Me Fey-zy
I was anxious and stoked for Tina Fey’s Vanity Fair profile. Let me preface this by saying I am not a Maureen Dowd fan(hence anxious). I particularly found her to be completely derisive and disrespectful of Hillary Clinton, using the same old tired ball busting bitch tirade, most offensively while always claiming the mantle of feminist. So I didn’t go into this article without bias,...

Once more...with feeling
I’ve tried to do the blog thing several, several times. I write for awhile. I make some connections with people. I forget to keep writing. I feel guilty about forgetting to write. And then I never log in because it triggers said guilt. I think that’s why Twitter works so well for me. I can update on the go, mostly from my phone, and it dovetails well with my laziness. However,...
