Calvin Klein “Man”

Friday, October 26th, 2007

Soo, I’m thinking the folks at the Calvin Klein company have run out of names for their man fumes. Seriously. I just saw a commercial for their new ’scent’ and it is called…..wait for it. Wait for it. The new fume is….Man. Simply stated, original, and thought provoking. Gosh, guess that sums it up? WTF?

I am sort of curious, but also a little worried about how something called “Man” might actually smell. The smell of man is pretty open for interpretation if you know what I mean.

Why? I Don’t Get It.

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

I know I have heard this asked before, but why on EARTH do vacuums have ‘headlights’? I mean, why would you be vacuuming in the dark? I just don’t get it at all.  If someone knows the answer, please fill a sister in. Yes, I was vacuuming and the room was darkish and so I noticed the headlight more than I would during the day. Still don’t get it, but whatever.

I just finished all my stuff for tomorrow and I’m exhausted! I did manage to clean up my apartment a little. Seriously, that is a huge deal for me. It was a piggy pen!

We All Know One

Wednesday, October 24th, 2007

I have a lot of time in my car to sit and think while driving to and fro school Mon-Thur. While driving today, I started thinking about something my philosophy professor told us last spring. We were talking about how Socrates believed there we X number of souls on earth and that was it. The souls just continued to cycle through. Of course someone asked, “Well if that’s true, there aren’t enough souls for everyone/thing on this planet.” AHH HA!!

This brings me to what I was thinking about today. When we discussed this in class our teacher said, “We all know someone who just seems empty. You look in their eyes and nothing. Also, we all have had or known a pet that seemed almost human.” Now, I know some of you are thinking I’m a loon, but I think there is something to that. I don’t believe some people are aliens or anything, but think hard. I GUARANTEE you can think of at least one person you know who is….I dunno, a little less than human. They have vacant eyes and just seem empty. You know, like they have no soul or purpose on this planet.

Anyway, that was a deep thought, wasn’t it. I will go and take my medication now.

Red Bull Commercial

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

Has anyone seen the Red Bull commercial where the guy gets shat on by the bird? I saw it last night and it is GREAT!

For those of you who have not see the aforementioned commercial, there is a guy walking along, minding his business when a bird flies over and shits on his shoulder. Man wipes off his shoulder as bird flies off. Man pops Red Bull out of bag, guzzles it down, and grows wings. Next thing you know, man is flying above bird getting ready to take his pants down. Commercial cuts to slogan and can of Red Bull. Genius! Fucking genius!

See, now that is good advertising right there!! I want to grow wings and shit on people!

PS Thank you to my lovely co-host for posting the video :)

Bribery

Sunday, October 21st, 2007

This is how badly my son hates wiggling his loose teeth out. He has four, now three, loose teeth and I told him on Friday that I would give him $5 for each tooth he got out. I said, “You could potentially make $20 this weekend!”  Nope, not taking the bribe!!

See, he needs braces and so we are trying to get as many baby teeth out as we can.  Anyway. Last night he was eating a Milky Way and he says, “Mom, look at my tooth.”  I about died! His little tooth was completely sideways. I was looking at the bottom of his tooth from the side of his mouth.  Yeah, it was quite interesting. Kind of cool, but gross all at the same time.  He got all upset and then finally wiggled it out.  The ONLY reason that tooth came out was the combination of caramel and the adult tooth pushing its way down. Ugh!!

I did catch him wiggling another one later :) Hopefully we can get them all out before Christmas.
