this was one of the many dishes we had at father’s day dinner last night…the whole concept of the crab claw being engulfed by shrimp paste must have exreme phychological effects on the crab…but that’s quite the claw…happy father’s day padre!

the new chat feature

so there i was on my computer- 8:20pm on a friday night, on one of those silly websites which you sometimes don’t like to admit you’re a part of (especially when you’re socializing with fresh faced humanitarians and such at a friend of your friend’s parties).  so i’m browsing along some pages that maybe some would call “stalking” and a tiny window pops up from my good friend tee!  my first thought is…whoa dude!  what’s this?!!  i’ve heard much about this new chat feature but have yet to debut it myself…until tonight that is. so we chat for probably less than two minutes with this new feature and then we return to our regular programming: msn. 

and there we have it…the real deal is the regular programming.  all the friends that i really talk to are on channel one.  though, i must admit, there are some people that i don’t really chat with on my channel one listing but…let’s put that aside for now. 

i’m glad that i’ve had a chance to experience the little window of opportunity, but now that it’s over i don’t really see a purpose of ever using it again.  besides, it can seriously sidetrack you when you’re “working” or rather…fb.s-ing.

somebody should get those empty jars ready

my allergies are killing me.  there are snot balls everywhere.  i think i’ve been blowing my nose non-stop for like 2 hours.  for real yos, two hours.  make it stop.  i put some vicks vapour rub on my nose and it did not help at all, as snot was running down my right nostril within minutes of application.  what a waste!  though, i must admit, it was a knock off of vicks vapour rub, it was the london drugs brand i believe. 

speaking of london drugs, who knew that sea grass storage basket units were so ridiculously expensive.  is sea grass expensive?  how long does it take to weave a basket?  are those things human made or machine made?  do tell, or do link, if you know. 

i need some black tights. you know, some black cotton tights. hmm, i wonder what time the mall opens tomorrow morning…

i have too many clothes. there’s like this ever-growing mountain in my room.  i need to get rid of some clothes.  or……..maybe my closet is just too small.  meh.

meh………it’s too bad that shirt was not a little smaller because i would have gotten it.  it would have looked nice with jeans and such.  hmm……..maybe h&m will have something like it. 

ughh………snot balls please stop!  i feel like my grandma.  she used to leave balls of tissue paper everywhere. she’d be sitting down, then get up from the couch and like 3 snot balls would fall onto the floor. oh grandma.  good times, good times. 

my elbows are cold. dang it, that’s so chinese.  you know, the whole deal about how important it is to cover your joints, because if you don’t, then you’ll catch it cold…well, it seems to be catching up with me. 

i have to make a note that i threw the frisbee around today and surprisingly, some athletic ability came out of me.  i know my good friend tee would be proud…as i could not properly throw a frisbee last year at a friend’s bbq. 

i thoroughly enjoyed my day outside today (or rather yesterday).  walking around the city and being close to the grass made me feel like my sporty outfit was well considered for the day’s activities.

post-neglect

so, my two good friends tee and shirs feel that i’ve been neglecting my tumblr., and yes, i must agree…it’s true.  the truth is, every time i try to find something cool to post on my tumblr., i end up stumbling upon some ridiculously embarassing forms of media which i cannot post.  really, they’re not even funny videos about britney spears or some new disney music video of that miley cyrus kid…they’re just………unspeakable.  no, it’s not anything dirty.  stop being so gross kids.  i keep it pretty pg around here.  i mean, i just…i just can’t post the garbage that i spend hours of my life watching.  actually…….it’s not garbage…….it’s better than dawson’s creek.  that’s right, i said it.  i said it’s better than dawson’s creek.  aww man, it’s totally over now.  i’m going to be completely disowned.  balls!

by the way, i have no idea why i’ve started to say that word, but i use it all the time now and my sister finds it quite disturbing.  people just take it the wrong way.  there are lots of different balls in the world.  dodgeballs, basketballs, volleyballs, footballs, tennis balls, meatballs, soccer balls, curry fish balls, honeydew balls, oranges…they’re balls…grapes (the uber round ones)…moth balls, cuttlefish balls!!! (yummers), paint balls! 

 you know what i mean, balls are everywhere!  they’re like…traffic lights!
