Forever...

We finished our discussion Judy Blume's book, Forever..., in my adolescent literature class. For those of you who haven't read it, it's basically porn for tween girls. Perfect families, practical sex talk, she names her boyfriend's penis Ralph (the name comes up surprisingly often). I don't consider myself a prude, but I can't decide if I'd let my teenage daughter read books like this. On one hand, I guess it's informative and empowering. On the other hand, it is pretty sexual.

Scammers Need to Speak Better English (for sexual purposes)

One of my roommate's friends had his facebook account hacked. A scammer came on and tried to get him to wire money. I was nearby and grabbed the computer. Hilarity ensued. Be warned, we get a little GRAPHIC. Reader discretion is advised.

Ice Skating

I took some time off from the massive amount of studying I'm trying to pull off and went ice skating again tonight. That makes 3 times in 3 weeks so far. After the initial improvement bloom on my first time I'm still pretty slow and a weak skater. You'd think that running all the time would give me a boon in skating... and you'd be wrong. Last week I noticed that my ankles sink inwards and that causes my blades to meet the ice weird. This week I busted out my foot arch support and shoved it in my boot. It definitely help, but didn't fix the problem my far. I think it has to do a lot with how I rest myself on my ankles, I naturally just relax them inwardly instead of standing on top. I've decide to spend this next 7 days trying to walk on top of my foot instead on the inside. I'm hoping it'll build up more support.

Hanoko 001 ~ Cantankerous Mello

Ice Skating

I don't think I've been ice skating since I was 5 years old. It's just something that's never interested me and I don't remember ever really having much fun. I never liked falling down on my butt when I was a kid and I would have rather have been somewhere warm. Plus there's no snow in ice skating. Mainly I just remember being stuck in uncomfortable shoes, hanging onto the wall, and scratching up ice crystals to make snowballs with... oh I remember that being hilarious.

Anyway, after listening to the new Owl City CD nonstop for about two weeks (half of the songs of which seem to do with icy things or explicitly ice skating) I decided that I wanted to go again. And so I got a whole new perspective on the sport. A mature adult perspective if I might so bold.

Ice skating has a lot of going in circles. I never processed that as a child. If almost anything but ice was out there, it'd look like the most boring, dumb activity ever. If it was just regular ground, and everyone went there to walk around in circles on it while music played, occasionally changing direction (oh how exciting) or watching as some extremely skilled walker went break dance spinning in the middle.. if that was the case, it'd be dumb as hell. Even something like a swimming pool does seem to fit. Ice skating rinks and how people act in them is unique because if it didn't involve ice, the Texan's worst enemy, no-one would see the point in it. But since it is Ice filling the rink, people find it acceptable to mill around in circles while a radio scratches in the background. Why? Because trying to move on ice is like juggle huge water balloons and trying to learn spanish.

I learned a valuable lesson trying to ice skate again: sometimes doing mundane and boring things is interesting when you put a handicap on it. I'm hoping my legs get stronger for next week, apparently its 2 for 1 on Thursdays and the price is already pretty cheap. Go figure.

Here's to falling! John

Lil John Wears Worlds Biggest Name Tag

I heard a rumor today that Lil John had been selected to be awarded the newly coined Jackson Prize for his vast and immeasurable contributions to the art of music. And even though I may have just made that up, I think we'd all have to agree that it would be the right thing to do! Lil John is an irreplaceable national treasure. An influence on my life, showing that turrets syndrome and a smoking problem can single handily save an absurd number of songs that tragically mixed a catchy beat with lyrics that induce my dry heave response. Just when I almost comprehend what the song is talking about I find myself wondering 'what who the hell was that?' If you don't remember 'from the windows to the walls', fret not, we now have this little gem:

Patron Tequila by Paradiso Girls
(if the video stops working use this: Click Here )


As a note on the music video, I have to say that I'm disappointed. For a song sexing up alcohol poisoning and smoking weed I thought it'd have more of... you know... alcohol and weed. Instead I'm left confused and the sense I just watched a Best Buy commercial. For a song so perfectly, vividly explicit I have to wonder why they abstracted it to a wallflower sitting in a lively, bright eyed club scene. I guess this means there really is no way to make vomit smexy. Hear the bulimics? This is calling you out.

Drinking Game: take a drink whenever the guy looks like he's having a Lorelle moment OR when Lil John says anything that's not "Lets Go!", "Hey!", "What's Happening?", "Come On!", "Say What?", "Uhuh", "Hey Gurl!", or something that isn't already being sung by someone else.
