Didn’t think it was possible, but I managed to overdose on chocolates this past Sunday.  Was green to the face, sick to the stomach, made two trips to the crapper, and was ready to tackle the rest of the box by evening.

This is usually what happens with food gifts between me and Evelyn.  One of us will take a bite of it or immediately expect a bite of whatever delectable treat it happens to be.  I don’t think I have ever taken a bite out of EVERYTHING though…..  Although that would happen if it was the Deluscious Valentine Cookie Box.

But I am positive she would not blame me for doing that………muhahahhaaa

(On a side note, why do I always draw myself with 1 arm in the air……Maybe I should have 1 arm in the air as my new look….hmmmm)

Ahhhhh.  Mr.Phi and I have been mass produced in Shanghai!! I wonder who owns our copyrights?

Curses!!::shakes fist!:: Where are my royalties?!?

I demand payment in the form of 100 potstickers from the Stand near Jing’an Temple!!

Today my good buddy Maverick died.

You were my first fish, and an excellent source of distraction.

I will miss you much.

Pee-Wee’s Playhouse!!  I was so excited yesterday to find out that Pee-Wee Herman was putting on a series of shows in LA.  I think I will have to drive down just to check one of these shows out. But why no Pee Wee love??  Doesn’t seem like any of my friends is too interested in going?!  What is this fuckery!?  Evelyn even replied “Meh” to me but this isn’t a big surprise because that is her most common reply to activities not involving food or watching Turner Classic Movies.

One of my favorite Pee-Wee appearances was on a 1980s Dolly Parton Special. (Go to 3:45 for their duet)  And all I ever wanted was this playset below!  One time at college I saw it in a teacher’s office and considered theivery but I gave that up when my friend got arrested for stealing 5 bras at a JCPenny. (Tip: people notice when you go from A cup to D cup in 8 minutes.)

So my dear Mr.Phi downloaded this album below last nite and it definitely took me back.  I used to listen to nothing but Weezer and Ben Folds Five.  Plus I loved Nintendo.  Especially Legend of Zelda!  We even played Legend of Zelda music as for our exit procession at our wedding cause we couldn’t think of anything better lol.

Speaking of Nintendo, when were little my Dad started hogging it to beat the last level in the original Super Mario Brothers.  This was before we even knew about Time Warp. (Seriously needed the  Nintendo Strategy Guide!)  I would act like an oracle sitting on our plaid couch with my bag of Fritos & cheese dip.   Trying to will him to beat it with my mental powers.  I wish I had insane vids of this, so heres another kind for you

And oh my gawd, I totally forgot about the show “Video Power“!!! I was in love with the Tomato Character on it.

Today Amazon bought Zappos.  This is a big deal in the .com world coz Amazon paid bucu bucks for them.

Anyway, The Wall Street Journal posted the following letter from Zappos CEO to their staff:

http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2009/07/22/zappos-ceos-letter-to-staff/

There were 3 excerpts that I found highly amusing:

#1.)  Please set aside 20 minutes to carefully read this entire email.

[Evelyn] lol.  i wish i had the luxury to demand people do this.  eh, i guess when you’re a CEO…

#2.)  Q: Will we get a discount at Amazon?

No, because we are planning on continuing to run Zappos as a separate company with our own culture and core values. And we’re not going to be giving the Zappos discount to Amazon employees either, unless they bake us cookies and deliver them in person.

[Evelyn] Um so like, this is pretty much PPP Hour’s policy towards everything.  What?  You want us to do something?  Cookies!  Gimme!  Nao!

#3.) Q: Can you please stop?

okthxbye

[Evelyn] To Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh:  I appreciate your brand of humor!  :D  That is, if this email was even real.  If it wasn’t, I was still highly entertained by whoever wrote it.

So as I was walking home from my studio I started reminiscing about my dollhouse.  And how I replaced the dolls in it with Dinosaurs.  Then I was trying to remember if I still kept one doll and 1 dinosaur to be the husband and wife.  And then I laughed at the thought of them having intercourse.  From there, I started thinking about Dinosaurs and wondering if their peens were HUGEEEE?!

So of course I googled this when I got home and found a great article on DINOSAUR SEX!

It asks all the questions I didn’t even know I was curious about like…“How did spiny stegosaurs mate without stabbing each other to death? And where did Tyranosaurus rex stow his crown jewels - or did he let it all hang out?”

And now I’m on the hunt for the “series of drawings of dinosaurs in different mating positions, including in water, by the late British palaeontologist L. Beverly Halstead(also know as L B Halstead), who believed all dinosaurs used pretty much the same mating position: “Mounting from the rear.” Unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any of these gems online and my local library doesn’t seem to contain them.  Please someone buy all books written by him and find them and post them. Thank you!

And heres a lil bit of BBC DinoPron cause I know thats the next step….ENJOY!(For some reason, Youtube’s embed was not working. Must be super NSFW!!)

Ahhhh yes this takes me back.  I had one of these back when I was a young gal.  I remember bouncing on it and a kid came up to me & wanted to try it.  He offered me a stick of gum to try, which of couse I knew was definitely lingo for drugs!!(I had been attending D.A.R.E. meetings at school.  Free Entemann’s Chocolate Chip Cookies FTW!)  I told him “NO WAY, JOSE”(and his name wasn’t even Jose) and pogo-ed on out of there.   But did I pogo, lolo, or discoed on out…now I’m not sure…there were actually so many different versions

I find this very confusing but from what I can understand from Wiki, it looks like several people wanted to make the same product, but used different names.  Which I find hilarious.  Because if you are manufacturing the Pogo Ball and someone is like “hey! check out my pogo bal! So much better than your pogo BALL! ”  Thats just insane.

But now I miss it, I wonder if its somewhere in my parent’s attic?  I think I may go get it or maybe I’ll get the old mini trampoline my mom got during the 1980s rebounder workout phase.  Basically I feel like Bouncin’!!

This weekend I went up to SF to visit Liz and she took me to a fancy Chinese restaurant called “Heaven’s Dog”.  Even though the setting was ultra modern, the food still tasted pretty authentic.   Stick with the main entrees though, and go somewhere else for dessert.  Let it be known that I was the idiot that fell for this number: “Jasmine Tea Granita with milk, melon, and mango”.  The waitress described the dessert as “refreshing”. 

Refreshing my ass.  This was what they served me…

And they dared to charge $7 for this piece of crap.

I think if they actually served me a piece of crap, it might have filled the plate better.
