dance party at my house!
now i had to buy the other 2 albums that got stolen.

product alert: Dreyer's slow churned yogurt blends in vanilla is absolutely awesome! it tastes like frozen cool whip, i'm not even kidding! and it's worth a measly 2 points on the Weight Watchers scale for a half cup serving. top it with some Trader Joe's Midnight Moo and you are eating like you're cheating!
stats on Dreyer's product

ps: i like to top it also with some granola for a nice, healthy crunch!
PerezHilton and Spaceland both agree: british pop sensation "LITTLE BOOTS" r00lz!
now, i'm usually not one to go by a perezhilton recommendation but i went to her myspace page and wow, this is awesomely great pop music! great to dance to, you want to go home and put on your trashiest mini skirt and body glitter on and dance under multicolored lights.
trust me, you won't be sorry!

sun is bad! everything our parents said was good is bad: sun, milk, red meat, college...
i'm getting rid of some old vhs tapes and was wondering if anyone wanted my boxed sets of star wars, back to the future and blade runner, director's cut. comment if you want 'em, i'll even snail mail them out to you, otherwise they're going to goodwill tomorrow.
which do you prefer, Claritin (and/or generic) or Zyrtec?
i've been trying my herbal supplements but fall and winter are my worst times for allergies so i have had to resort to taking pills again. i usually buy the generic Claritin at Target, but i saw that now Zyrtec is OTC. i've had Claritin work for me before but i was wondering what you all thought and what your personal experience with either were. thanks for any input!
ps: this entry is public so feel free to point any other friends to it for their thoughts, thanks!

ok, so i started the whitening and they put this stuff on my teeth then stuck me under some uv light for 3 15minute sessions. i was fine during the process but a couple of hours later, maybe 3, my teeth were really bugging. not exactly pain, but like this dull ache. it was the equivalent of restless leg syndrome, where this weird ache came sporadically, then passed. still, it was uncomfortable as hell and i have never experienced something like that before. i can't describe it exactly, but i guess i could just call it pain. it was tooth sensitivity, but it wasn't shooting pains, just dull aches.
i found a forum where people shared their horror stories using the ZOOM! and some of them experienced absolute torture. shooting pains, they called zings, and a feeling of electric charges in their teeth. it did sort of feel like electricity at times, but mostly a dull, strange ache. it started to make me crazy and frustrated cos i couldn't do anything about it. i brushed my teeth, it helped a little, drank some warm tea, took some ibuprofen and i was still ready to punch out my own teeth. i couldn;t even talk cos when air would hit my teeth, it ached even more and sent chills down my body. Carter suggested i brush with some Sensodyne so i ran to the store to get some. i also got some flouride mouthwash, cos they sent me home at the dentists with some flouride to put on my bleaching trays. i had already used that as well, but i didn't want to do it again cos i heard of it staining your teeth and making them spotty. so i swished and brushed, grimaced and went through a bit of hell. woke up this morning and the sensitivity is gone. i think i might wait one more day to do the trays cos that ache is so uncomfortable.
anyway, the point of this entry is to warn you if you're thinking of bleaching your teeth professionally. if you have sensitive teeth to heat or cold, it is NOT for you! you will be one of the ones to experience actual shooting pains, i can't imagine what that must be like compared to mine. mine seem like rush hour traffic, annoying and exasperating but tolerable. and if you do decide to bleach professionally, prepare yourself by using Sensodyne 2 weeks prior as well as flouride mouthwashes to prep your teeth. i'd hate for anyone else to go through something like that again!

"Kiki Anniston Reveals: “The "Secret Reason" Why Women Are Attracted To Jerks, Players and Just Plain Dangerously Wrong Guys.”
An open letter to single women frustrated with dating the wrong guys...
Tuesday, July 03, 2007
Hey Girlfriend,
Can I ask you something personal?
Be honest...
Have you ever dated the type of guy that left you constantly waiting by the phone with an uneasy sick feeling in the pit of your stomach?
Or a guy who made you feel bad about yourself, but for some reason you couldn’t leave him? (Of course, that same guy, at times, also made you feel like you were the only person on this planet - you know, that “hot-cold” type).
And have you ever walked into a club and found yourself so attracted to one particular guy, you felt like you were in a trance and literally couldn't stop making eyes with him?
If you answered yes to any of the above, it may be a sign that you’re susceptible to a certain “dangerous personality type” that psychiatrists have a SCARY sounding name for, which I'll tell you about in a sec...
...But first, I want you to quickly read through the following list of personality traits and jot down the ones that apply to either the guy you’re dating now or guys you’ve typically dated in the past:
PERSONALITY TRAITS:
1. SUPERFICIAL CHARM -- the tendency to be smooth, engaging, charming, and slick. Not in the least shy, self-conscious, or afraid to say anything. He never gets tongue-tied and has freed himself from the social conventions about taking turns in talking, for example.
2. GRANDIOSE SELF-WORTH -- a grossly inflated view of one's abilities and self-worth, self-assured, opinionated, cocky, a braggart. An arrogant guy who believes he is a superior human being.
3. NEED FOR STIMULATION (PRONENESS TO BOREDOM) -- an excessive need for novel, thrilling, and exciting stimulation; taking chances and doing things that are risky. Often has low self-discipline in carrying tasks through to completion because he gets bored easily.
4. PATHOLOGICAL LYING -- can be moderate or high; in moderate form, and will be shrewd, crafty, cunning, sly, and clever (in extreme form, he will be deceptive, deceitful, underhanded, unscrupulous, manipulative, and dishonest).
5. CONNING AND MANIPULATIVENESS -- the use of deceit and deception to cheat, con, or defraud others for personal gain; distinguished from Item #4 in the degree to which exploitation and callous ruthlessness is present, as reflected in a lack of concern for the feelings and suffering of one's victims.
6. LACK OF REMORSE OR GUILT -- a lack of feelings or concern for the losses, pain, and suffering of victims; a tendency to be unconcerned, dispassionate, coldhearted, and unempathic. This item is usually demonstrated by a disdain for one's victims.
7. SHALLOW AFFECT -- emotional poverty or a limited range or depth of feelings; interpersonal coldness in spite of signs of open gregariousness.
8. CALLOUSNESS and LACK OF EMPATHY -- a lack of feelings toward people in general; cold, contemptuous, inconsiderate, and tactless.
9. PARASITIC LIFESTYLE -- an intentional, manipulative, selfish, and exploitative financial dependence on others as reflected in a lack of motivation, low self-discipline, and inability to begin or complete responsibilities.
10. POOR BEHAVIORAL CONTROLS -- expressions of irritability, annoyance, impatience, threats, aggression, and verbal abuse; inadequate control of anger and temper; acting hastily.
11. PROMISCUOUS SEXUAL BEHAVIOR -- a variety of brief, superficial relations, numerous affairs, and an indiscriminate selection of sexual partners; the maintenance of several relationships at the same time; a history of attempts to sexually coerce others into sexual activity or taking great pride at discussing sexual exploits or conquests.
12. LACK OF REALISTIC, LONG-TERM GOALS -- an inability or persistent failure to develop and execute long-term plans and goals; a nomadic existence, aimless, lacking direction in life.
13. IMPULSIVITY -- the occurrence of behaviors that are unpremeditated and lack reflection or planning; inability to resist temptation, frustrations, and urges; a lack of deliberation without considering the consequences; foolhardy, rash, unpredictable, erratic, and reckless.
14. IRRESPONSIBILITY -- repeated failure to fulfill or honor obligations and commitments; such as not paying bills, defaulting on loans, performing sloppy work, being absent or late to work, failing to honor contractual agreements.
15. FAILURE TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR OWN ACTIONS -- a failure to accept responsibility for one's actions reflected in low conscientiousness, an absence of dutifulness, antagonistic manipulation, denial of responsibility, and an effort to manipulate others through this denial.
16. MANY SHORT-TERM RELATIONSHIPS -- a lack of commitment to a long-term relationship reflected in inconsistent, undependable, and unreliable commitments in life, including marital.
17. JUVENILE DELINQUENCY -- behavior problems between the ages of 13-18; mostly behaviors that are crimes or clearly involve aspects of antagonism, exploitation, aggression, manipulation, or a callous, ruthless tough-mindedness.
18. CRIMINAL VERSATILITY -- A diversity of types of criminal offenses (regardless if the person has been arrested or convicted for them); taking great pride at getting away with crimes.
( Do any of these personality traits describe someone you've dated or are dating? )
i know it might sound preachy in someinstances, or like it's endorsing some dude's book. but there are some good points in there that i think apply to both men and women.
so i copied and pasted it so you don't have to go to the link, but the link will appear at the end...

saturday i took my mom out for a late mother's day since she was out of town for mom's day. carter and i took her to cobras & matadors for some yummy tapas and sangria, and yes I MADE MY MOMMY DRINK! c'mon mom, it won't hurt ya.... and she says ok, if i get drunk it's your fault!
she had fun, she liked the tapas as well as the sangria. i think it's a tie between theirs and the one at cha cha cha. this saturday we might take her out to little tokyo cos she says she's never been. and of course, we're gonna have ramen at daikokuya! ohhh yeah it's on!
(pssst, rosio, i hear she's thinking of going up to visit you soon!!!!!)
speaking of little sisters, i had another dream about her unborn child last night. this time the baby was a BOY! and unlike my previous dream where it was a girl, in this dream i saw the baby's face. in my other dream, it was implied it was a girl but i never saw her face or heard her making sounds. this time the baby was smiling and giggling and sighing like babies can and make your heart melt. i remember hugging him and saying "we've waited so long to meet you!" the baby had lots of dark, fuzzy hair that was standing straight up on his little head! he had a dark complexion and big, slanty eyes. he was so cute and my mom and sister were in my dream too and we all just fell in love with the baby and were sappy and shit. aw, what a nice dream! i even woke up feeling giddy!

ok, here's a bit of a weekend round-up...
friday we went to dinner at our favorite sushi restaurant where carter drank the sake by himself and 2 asahis. i had nothing to drink cos my stomach was doing weird things that day due to a chorizo burrito i ate for breakfast. not good! needless to say, carter was kinda smashed, and after dinner we had a BevMo excursion to get some 5 cents wine specials. that idea was thrown out when we decided to get more bombay sapphire for our gin and tonics we like to enjoy, and then a burst of inspiration to make some white russians! there's a beverage here, man!
sadly, bevmo didn't have milk so we went upstairs to Target to get that. (we were at the la brea/santa monica center dealie) so while we're at target, carter decides to pick up a few things like cereal and champagne, cos we found veuve cliquot there for only 36.99!!!! kid you not! so while i was looking for tonic water, carter went to get his cheerios but ends up coming to where i am and proclaiming that there is no cereal at target! at that point the sake had kicked in and he was apparently drunk! i said, it's right there, where it always is! and he kept insisting there was no cereal anywhere so i took him to get it and then when i point out the cereal aisle and there's his box of cheerios, he picks it up in both hands and waves it above his head and does some weird gyrating dance worthy of being on any chippendale's stage!
by then i am laughing my ass off at his antics and i tell him to put the cereal down and on the way home i'm driving! he sighs and says ok, and then proceeds to buy everything he sees, and i have to put stuff back that he puts in the basket. he wanted to walk out of there with 2 bottles of champagne but i put the other one back and he pretended to throw a tantrum but only long enough before he got distracted by something else. that whole shopping ordeal was funny cos this time he was the one who got wasted and i wasn't. usually it's me cos everyhting goes straight to my head, woo-woo! it would have been disaster if we were both drunk cos a) we would've bought tons of stuff and b) the drive home would have been scary.
then on saturday i get us some tickets to the IMAX at the science center and we watch that deep sea 3-d movie. it was narrated by johnny depp and kate winslett with music by danny elfman. and i was like damn! this is an IMAX movie?!?!?!! awesome. then after the movie we went into the star wars exhibit and got to look at the scale models used in the filming of the original trilogy, as well as a replica of luke skywalker's pocraft. they also had a bunch of costumes and the droids. then they started to kick us out cos it was closing time and we went to walk around in the rose garden for a bit before we headed home.
then sunday we went for a ride along the pier but venice beach was insanely crowded! we were riding behind this little boy and i tried to pass him on his right cos he seemed to be going pretty straight, but he suddenly veers off to the right too and i squeal and slam the brakes and missed hitting him! as i was coming to a stop, he bumps into my leg with his handlebars, jumps off his bike and takes a little tumble on the ground. i freak out and i'm all, oh my god, are you ok? i am so sorry! i thought i had hurt that little boy. and he said he was ok, and i was looking around for any adult that might be his parent and then his dad rolls up on some rollerblades and i ask him if he's ok. the man says something in russian to the little boy and then tells me that he's ok. i was totally freaking though, and had a wobbly ride for the next 10 minutes cos i was a bit shaken up. i'm just glad i didn't hurt the little boy!
then we ended up going down another bike path that went along the marina that was less crowded and had serious bikers there, not the tourists with rental bikes cruising along at 5mph. so we did some sprints, watched a large crane hanging out by the water, then went back to the car and back home.
monday we went to the Dodger Stadium and had the right pavilion seats with the all-you-can-eat hot dogs, nachos and popcorn. stale ass popcorn, more like! everything was cool until carter started chatting with some dude sitting next to him and they were talking politics at a fucking baseball game and i got totally annoyed cos he was having some political discussion while a ball game was on! wtf! it turns out the guy kept going on and on about weird conspiracy theories and assassination theories but carter didn't know how to tell the guy to kindly bugger off. he ends up leaving and then some dudes seating nearby started to heckle carter cos their little boy kept staring at carter and smiling. the little boy then whispers something to his dad and points to carter then the guy says, hey spider man! they were chanting spider man for a while, then started to heckle the ball players. then carter gets up to go to the bathroom and they're waiting for him when he gets back. the dude got a section of the stadium to chant spider man, spider man to carter when he came back then they all started cheering and hollering. carter was a pretty good sport about it but i could tell he was a bit buggered by it. whatever, that's what you get for discussing politics at the stadium! muahahaha!
(btw, carter looks like tobey maguire maybe a little, like at first glance, but when you really look at him you realize it isn't him. but i kept joking that he's actually the jewish super hero, spiderman.)
now i'm at work and i hate life, cos i couldn't sleep last night boo-hoo!

monday we went to the Dodger Stadium and had the right pavilion seats with the all-you-can-eat hot dogs, nachos and popcorn. stale ass popcorn, more like! everything was cool until carter started chatting with some dude sitting next to him and they were talking politics at a fucking baseball game and i got totally annoyed cos he was having some political discussion while a ball game was on! wtf! it turns out the guy kept going on and on about weird conspiracy theories and assassination theories but carter didn't know how to tell the guy to kindly bugger off. he ends up leaving and then some dudes seating nearby started to heckle carter cos their little boy kept staring at carter and smiling. the little boy then whispers something to his dad and points to carter then the guy says, hey spider man! they were chanting spider man for a while, then started to heckle the ball players. then carter gets up to go to the bathroom and they're waiting for him when he gets back. the dude got a section of the stadium to chant spider man, spider man to carter when he came back then they all started cheering and hollering. carter was a pretty good sport about it but i could tell he was a bit buggered by it. whatever, that's what you get for discussing politics at the stadium! muahahaha!
(btw, carter looks like tobey maguire maybe a little, like at first glance, but when you really look at him you realize it isn't him. but i kept joking that he's actually the jewish super hero, spiderman.)
now i'm at work and i hate life, cos i couldn't sleep last night boo-hoo!
