I knew when I talked to my brother on the phone today and he was complaining to me about how I haven't posted in forever that it had been far too long. I promise I've actually been busy. I can't believe it's only Saturday, I've already done so much!

Thursday night was super fun! My friend, Barbara, and I were going to see Spoon at the Wiltern in L.A. We figured we would just head on up to L.A. to beat the horrific traffic and we ended up stopping by and seeing my sister who I haven't seen since October! SAD! Then we headed over with my sister to see the ladies at Stitch n Bitch, who I have not seen in forever since I work every Thursday night! It was so good to see all those ladies. Next semester I'm making sure I don't work on Thursday nights so I can see them. After hanging out with those ladies for a little bit, Barbara and I headed over to the Wiltern to see SPOOOONNNN!


So here's Barbara and me.

The concert was so fun and the Wiltern is such a cool venue. Forgive me for not knowing the opening bands names, but I feel like I need to talk about one of them for a second. The first opening band was fun and entertaining, but the second band was on a whole other level. Imagine the Christian rock version of Hootie and the Blowfish. That is exactly what they sounded like. When they first came out I was waiting for them to stop playing and start laughing and be like, "Okay guys, we're just kidding, now we'll start our real show!" They never did, but they DID play songs like "Sick of food" that included lyrics like "I'm sick of food, so why am I still hungry?" and another classic liner that went along the lines of, "She's a little girl that's experiencing the world."

Spoon was so much fun though. The lead singer is adorable. Not to mention, we got an encore performance and most bands do one or two songs for an encore, but they did 4 or 5. Spoon will forever be good in my book. The only thing I was bummed about was, I swear to God they played every song off all their albums except for my favorite one. That was kind of a bummer, but I still have a great time!


After the show, I took Barbara to my favorite place in the world, aside from Disneyland....The Statue House! If I ever met the guy who created this piece of wonder I would shake his hand and tell him he's my hero.

Friday night I saw Harry Potter with Wes. Super fun. It starts off slow, but pulls together pretty well. The director did a great job on portraying teenage angst and the beginning of dating. Super cute and funny!

I also got another bag this weekend. It's from the same girl that I mentioned in my last post. This bag is even bigger and I love it!


The picture doesn't really show how big it is, but it's huge! I love big bags!


I wanted to show the cool button on it and on my other bag the button is really cool too.


And then this is the inside of it. FUN!

I am not one for advertising on a blog or anything, but I am going to do it just this once. This girl that comes into the salon that I work at is the sweetest girl in the world and she makes the cutest bags I have seen in my entire life. She's 22 or 23 and her bags are seriously amazing. I was so excited digging through this bin of the bags she makes because they're so cute! I bought a bag from her tonight and I'm buying another one on Wednesday(see pics below). So anyway I thought I would post her information and if you guys like what you see maybe you can contact her and spread the words to your friends. Jen, I know you'll love her bags so I think I'm going to drag you down here and make you buy one, one of these days!

What is it with people and not having a personal space bubble? I mean, they're American, but yet, they feel it is okay to practically stand behind you with their belly touching you and they are a stranger! This past week I have experienced two terrible cases of people invading my bubble. Granted, my bubble is much larger than the average American, but both of these people were so close that one of them had their pot belly touching me and the other one was practically talking into my ear!

The first time it happened when I was waiting in line at my favorite sushi place. The guy was with his wife and I kept stepping forward to try and give myself some more space, but whenever I would step forward he would step forward! It got so bad that in the single-file-line that I was standing in turned into him standing next to me!! Does he not realize that I was next in line? Does he realize that he was directly after me and in no way could anyone steal his place in line? Apparently not!!

Work with me here people, we're American, we don't actually like each other, so just give each other a little more space. I live in Orange County so I guess I should just make a sign to put on my back that says "I'm a crazy liberal!" and they'll stay away from me. But seriously, the "United we stand" thing shouldn't be taken in a literal sense, it's supposed to be symbolic!

Here is my theory of what men have small penises...I'll add more to it as I discover more signs of a small penis. Eizelle has recently informed me that this theory just might apply to men with pierced nipples as well.

Men who drive lifted trucks where the wheels are taller than my car.

Men who blare bands such as: Linkin Park, Godsmack, Limp Bizkit, etc. out their windows at all hours of the day.

Men who drive around peeling out just for the sake of peeling out.

Men who use the words "Hey baby" as a way of igniting a conversation with a woman.

Men who make kissy faces at me when I pull up next to them on the street.

Men who can't grasp the fact that overly baggy jeans should have been left in the 90's.

Men who tailgate me in their lifted oversized, gas guzzling, truck while blasting Linkin Park out their windows when I am going 50 in a 35 and driving in the right hand lane.

Men who make incredibly lame jokes about my name.

Men who lower their Honda civivs and put exhaust on them and drive around weaving in and out of traffic listening to trance music.

Men who use the word "Bro."
I'm way too tired and lazy to write a post right now so here's the link to check out the pictures from the Halloween party I went to. WARNING: Some of the pictures are somewhat "busty."
