Hells, it's Betty from Mad Men, in the scene from season one where she shoots her neighbor's pigeons. I just thought it was so badass, with the cigarette dangling out of her mouth and everything!
I haven't had this BWW problem that everyone else has at all...knock on wood.
I loved that scene, JAG! I thought she was going to get nominated for an Emmy this year.
danmag, WTF?? who writes a letter like that? It sounds like her husband has some kind of psychotic stalker on his hands.
danmag, I love that comment your husband made! Hahah. But jokes aside, whoever sent that letter is such a creeper! I mean, who takes the time to even to that?!
schmerg, I always got weird looks from people who passed by. I just wanted to yell "I MISS MY CHILDHOOD, OK?!" But instead, I moved to my own private swing.
I've been watching Season 2 of Mad Men all weekend. Getting ready for Season 3.
You guys, I just got home from seeing (500) Days of Summer. GO SEE IT. It's wonderful.
worked out for the first time since Wednesday -- spending tonight in bed with Sasha watching tv.
also -mom bought concrete and plugged the hole. F*** YOU MOTHER NATURE YOU CANT FLOOD MY BASEMENT ANYMORE.
oh and while I'm here - creepster moment of the week. I was in the grocery buying yogurt because my teeth hurt from the braces, the like. and well there's this creepy guy that works there and whenever I'm in the dairy isle he magically appears to tell me random facts about the products I buy. today I was picky about my yogurt so it took me a while to move along. He walks by me with one of those price guns and pointed it at me and he goes" Do you have a price?" I was thoroughly horrified by that statement and the expression on his face, and proceeded to drop the yogurt I was holding and move away as fast as I could.
Oh god, shhh! I know it's wrong, but I had to laugh at that. That's MESSED UP, though! Time to find a new grocery store?
newgirl, I've been doing the same thing. Is (500) Days of Summer really that great? I've read many good things, but I have irrational issues with hipster, indie movies (I know they're better than the sh*t I watch, but...), which is what it seems like to me...maybe I'll make an exception though!

Shhh, that is creep-tastic!!!! I don't know if you're a youtube junkie like me but this one of my favorite videos about grocery stores/creepy gentlemen:

It's very sweet, jag, but it definately has a sense of humor about itself. I guess there's a "hipster" quality to it, but it doesn't take itself too seriously.
Okay, I am about to cut a b*tch on the Karen Olivo thread on the main board.....
How are my girls?
"If we don't live happily ever after at least we survive until the end of the week!" -Kermit the frog "I need the money... it costs a lot to look this cheap!" -Dolly P. "Oh please, Over at 'Gypsy' Patti LuPone hasn't even alienated her first daughter yet!" Mary Testa in "Xanadu" "...Like a drunk Chita Rivera!" Robin de Jesus in "In the Heights"
"B*tch, I don't know your life." -Xanadu After that if he still doesn't understand why you were uncomfortable and are now infuriated, kick him again but this time with Jazz Hands!!! -KillerTofu
What's going on, Kels? I don't want to venture over there!
Cool, newgirl! You may have convinced me.
dshnookie is being a bit of a d*ck and I am calling it out on their throwing of a hissy fit over something pretty stupid.
BTW I LOVE your avi JAG... Mad Men kicks major ass!

You used the word asshat! I love you! Althoug my favorite curse word would have to be f*ckheaded-ness. You tell that asshat to take his f*ckheaded-ness elsewhere, Kels!
I use asshat all the time! It's my favorite word!
oh, and skinny thread alert!

no really - what does skinny thread alert mean?
ANGRY ALERT. I was planning on going to bed but my friend from Cali visited me with one of our friends and I found out something so infuriating I had to write my anger out here so I didn't go to bed angry. SO, she went to this guy's house who I used to hang out with - and than two more guys, A and B, came there. I've known them for a while and have found to be complete pricks as of the past 2 years but this, oh this puts the cherry on top. According to her, A and B were talking about my friend C who is a beautiful curvy and athletic woman, plain and simple. They were talking " Oh C, she's too fat for anyone too care about intimately, few ladies have the privilege of my affection" God, I felt sick when I heard it. I feel sick typing this. What gives these two a*holes the right? Mr. A gained the freshman FIFTY 3 years ago and never looked back and Mr. B sports a beer gut. and even if they didn't - C is a wonderful woman with a healthy figure, who has been loved before and will be again. God. some people, I swear... sorry just needed to get that out of my system.

Hey ladies! Sorry I've been MIA lately. Just busy with work and working out and the pups and cleaning for my mom's visit on Tuesday. The apt can't just be clean; it has to be Mom Clean. Yikes.
I hope all is well with everyone!
danmag, that would FREAK ME OUT if I got a letter like that!!!
shh....Sorry but I'm LMAO at your story!
shh - Skinny thread alert is just when BWW gets really narrow sometimes? Randomly?
And add me to the Mad Men love - I can't wait for that show to come back on. And I really want to see 500 days of summer....
Shh, the grocery store guy story is one of the creepier hilarious stories I've heard. I wonder if that guy's like that to everyone or if he recognizes you every time?
Also, your other story, about A,B, and C makes me really, really mad. That double standard is so infuriating. All the chubby guys I know have no trouble at all getting girlfriends, and I've even seen some really big guys wearing t-shirts that say "No Fat Chicks." But I hate how they think every girl who's not a stick is 'fat'-- I even heard some guys talking about how Michelle Obama is fat! That doesn't even make sense.
Holy crap I missed a ton this weekend! So many creepy yet hilarious stories!
Danmag! I want to see 500 Days Of Summer too! But it doesn't even open here until Friday..
But the soundtrack is SO good. Of course it has Regina :) but it also has Carla Bruni! GAH! Let me know what you think of it!
Jag- Did you see who won Daisy of Love!?! :)
Shhhh- That story infuriates me. But it also goes to show why I have so many issues with dating. Tofu knows about my issues with this. We all have insecurities, but since mine are weight related and there is this really strong fat-hate happening these days, I never believe that anybody would be attracted to me. Sorta like yeah the face is okay, but when they see the body I expect disgust from them. And I expect everybody to have that same conversation that A and B had about me. It really sucks, but that's what I expect. It makes me especially mad when people say that about people who really aren't fat at all.
hello, ladies! I was having the hardest time getting on here all morning.
I can't wait to see 500 Days of Summer. Those indy movies that irritate JAG are the ones I usually get off my ass to go see. The last one being Away We Go. (which I loved!)
I haven't heard of 500 Days of Summer. I'm so behind on my Indie flicks. The last one I saw was Sunshine Cleaning, which was pretty good.
