This months blog is winding down so I thought I would post demon cat. Love me some demon cat. Maybe it's just talking Japanese.
I wonder if I should try to haggle with the seller on the price of the dog. I'm thinking about making an offer 10% below what they're asking. Would that be insulting or should I just suck it up and pay? It's almost in my nature to ask for a discount.
Selling PRS SC-245 to help finance pooch and all the crap that goes along with it (I got a bidder, sweet!!!). That guitar has been good to me and I know I'll miss it. I have two more I want to sell but first thing's first. The funny thing is, I know exactly what the dog is going to cost but 'all the crap that goes along with it' is a complete mystery to me. I could definitely go minimalist that's for sure or I could go overboard. I think potential vet bills scare me the most.
I'm about to pull the trigger on this pooch. He's just about perfect.
I know I've mentioned this in a previous blog but they're just so darn cool: Recycled glasses from wine, beer, liquor bottles, etc. Pricey but cool.
New Eddie Van Halen guitar looks great. He has been running his own company for the past few years but the only thing he sells is the one guitar and one amp he uses on stage. I'm an Eddie fanboy all the way but I don't really care for that particular guitar. That being said, he's added this new Les Paul inspired guitar to his lineup and it's more to my liking. It has very traditional appointments but with a few modern bells and whistles added into the mix. On a sidenote, can you imagine all the competition for a Les Paul type guitar? What manufacturer out there doesn't make one?
I used to think Dweezil Zappa was a punk but now I really respect the guy. Here's two really cool videos via Guitar Noize. I like the second one better because he talks about his pedal board (a monster). If you look carefully you can spy his PRS signature model in the background but the SG he's playing is badass too.
I watched Hellcats at the gym the other night. Best show ever. Aly Michalka, the only real reason to watch, was also in Easy A.
Live Stream from Egypt. I can't stop watching. Courtesy Al-Jazeera.
Tarheel Blue Les Paul on Ebay. I wish I could get it.
I seem to be posting a lot more videos since I moved over here. I used to be really anti-video. On that note, here's a sweet video about two beagles that were rescued from corporate testing labs via Beagle Freedom Project.
Wachowski brothers, eat your hearts out.
I wish they made a GPS device with a built-in radar detector. That would be hot. Google tells me they do but the prices are outrageous.
This lady who lives in western North Carolina just got a lot of new French Bulldogs (it's girl #1 vs. boy#5). I'm panicking over whether I should put down a deposit for one or wait for something else. Also, the local site that has Italian Greyhounds just posted a new litter.
More Minka Kelly / Leighton Meester magic.
Oscar nominations are out. It's a crying shame Blue Valentine only got one nomination (Michelle Williams, best actress). No Ryan Gossling for best actor? What a travesty. The guy frickin' rules and I didn't even like him before watching the movie. They need to dump James Franco. He was great in 127hrs and I like him a lot as an actor but the movie just didn't leave a big impression on me (he was the only character in the movie). Caps lock is hurting my eyes--->

Sounds like someone wants to get funky...or watch another epic battle against evil ex-boyfriends.
Nikki Taylor looks amazing. She will be on this season's Celebrity Apprentice. She was an uberbabe on 90210 back in the '90's but a terrible car accident sidelined her career. Ok, I take that back. She wasn't on 90210 lol. She was just a hot model. Who was I thinking of??? It must have been some 90210 or Melrose Place girl...who knows.
Trust me when I say that I have looked at a ton of dog breeder websites. Some are very informative but most of them are just god awful (think lots of CAPS LOCK and comic sans). The thing that really creeps me out the most are the show dog people. Given that it's a perfectly harmless hobby they just seem a little weird to me. I can't quite put my finger on it. They even made a movie about it. It's my opinion that for the most part, you're dog is not really all that great but if you show up to enough of these dog shows you'll eventually win, place or show just by playing the odds. Yes, there are some exceptional dogs out there but I think a lot of these show breeders need to come off their high horse. I've been thinking about this stuff for a while now but it all came to a head after seeing the above picture. We have a judge and an official on the left and right, the handler/owner in the middle and I'm not sure about these two burnouts. The guy on the right is a serial rapist and the guy on the left I'm pretty sure wants to eat the dog.
My shoulder has been hurting for a solid month and I'm starting to worry.
Just finished watching Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and I loved it. It was sneaky good because I didn't expect a lot going into it but the movie just kept delivering cool scene after cool scene. Frankly, I was blown away by the style and direction.
I'm feeling a little better today thank goodness.Yesterday sucked bad after having not one but two breakdowns.
Just finished watching Blue Valentine. What a great movie. I cried like a baby at the end (picture Pacino in Godfather III) and it wasn't because of my crippling depression and multiple medications. It was about love and heartache and right now my heart aches. Serious acting skills too from Ryan Gossling and Michelle Williams *****. Next on this weekends movie cavalcade will be The King's Speech. *I also watched I Spit on Your Grave. A sadistic horror movie but given the genre it wasn't too bad. Sarah Butler plays the victim in the first half of the movie and then she gets her revenge in the second half. She is adorable. I think I'll make a blog banner out of that great movie poster.
I was reading The Onion a few minutes ago and it was hilarious. Why am I not reading it more?
I just got a speeding ticket. Sooooo Mad! 49 in a 35. What a fucking douche this guy was. Actually he was nice (I was the douche lol) but he was basically giving tickets in a speed trap. He said, 'we've been getting complaints about speeding on this road.' I said 'the people complaining about the speeders aren't complaining about me. They're complaining about the people going 70 through here at night.' I need to calm down. I think I'm having a heart attack. Speeding, what a joke. I probably should have handled it like this but I couldn't do it. I did just the opposite. I'm sure he'll remember me for being an ass but I'm not going to suck up to him. I have too much rage. Usually it's held in check pretty good but when it comes to the surface, look out. Bad things, man. I have so much to talk about with my shrink on Tuesday it's ridiculous. I think I may need to schedule in a few more sessions because once a month ain't cuttin' it. Time for maximum xanax.
Jessica Biel - I would worship her ass.
Minka Kelly - maybe she is the sexiest woman alive. It's hilarious seeing those pictures of her and Leighton Meester. I remember comparing the two somewhere in this blog.
Infrared nuclear waste as it passes through your town on trains.
I really like the Mendes banner but it just doesn't go with the black background. I downloaded a bunch of crap to make a new one but I got lazy and recycled this one from long ago. Too busy with work right now to be creative.
Jesse James and Kat Von D...engaged. I think KVD (minus all those idiotic tattoos) is absolutely gorgeous but Jesse James is a frickin' sociopath. Seriously, he's 40 years old and this will be his fourth marriage. Dude, seriously, just chill out. Somebody sounds like a serial marrier to me. The third wife, what's her name, should have been seeing red flags all over the place. This fourth one must be just dumb. They can date, be in a committed relationship, whatever; but just don't come out with your getting married horse shit. Maybe I'm just jealous because I've never been married. Ok, I take that back. I'm not. Just for the record, this will be the second marriage for Kat von Deeze Nuts. I crack myself up sometimes.
The gym where I workout just got two of these elliptical machines and they are frickin' nice. A few of these too. Precor ftw.
Muttlucks
TSA video via Reason.
Natalie Portman's dorky laugh. Oh well, she's still cute even though she's all knocked up and whatnot.
The Bobcats...the Oatmeal can do no wrong. *bonus: Cat vs. Internet <--cute to the 3rd power.
Rejected bachelorette faces.
Coffee, Hot revisited.
Colossal Cupcakes. I feel like I need one of those.
New Game of Thrones trailer with characters atop the infamous iron throne. This looks really good.
I made this motivational and I'm not sure how it got on that site lol, Good times.
Add Norwich Terrier to the list of potential pups. If I don't write it down here I'll forget the name for sure.
A Staten Island man who decided to celebrate the Jets’ stunning upset of the New England Patriots yesterday by going sledding on his driveway was killed after he skidded into the street and was struck by an SUV...A police source said it’s believed he’d been drinking while watching the game.-NY Post. At least he died happy.
Anne Hathaway (in the new Batman), January Jones (in the new X-men) and Sophia Vergara won the Golden Globe Awards last night. I think Anne needs a little more caboose for that dress but who's complainin'? By the way, who the hell is January Jones? I think all the best looking girls wore their hair down (except for Sandra Bullock who looked horrendous). Honorable mentions: Maria Menounos, Jayma Mays, Olivia Wilde, Angelina Jolie,Megan Fox, Jessalyn Gilsig, Gia Mantegna, Emma Stone, Leighton Meester, Naya Rivera...source1 source2, I think I need to start watching Glee.
I guess I won't be calling my band Charlie X. Another CharlieX type reference equipped with it's own cool logo.
This is a quick album cover that was thrown together to post on another site. It's not terrible but I definitely need better fonts. The instructions were:
1 - Go to wikipedia and hit random. The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2 - Go to quotationspage.com and hit random. The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”. Third picture no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4 - Use photoshop or similar (picnik.com is a free online photo editor) to put it all together.
5 - Upload it to the photo hosting site of your choice and post a link in the comments.
I had a nightmare about an ex-girlfriend that was a little too real. Now I'm all depressed.
Marge from the Simpson's porn parody. I like the creative spirit but I think I'll skip this one.
