jade's Blurty

Omg. How annoying is it that I can't have more than 10 friends on Blurty? Also, how annoying is it that people just abandon Blurty and stop posting? Hmph. A few times a year I have to cull my list. Hell, half the people who list me as a friend haven't posted since 2006. Seriously.

It is completely ridiculous. If they would let me pay to be a premium member or whatever, I would do it.

Hmph.

Stupid.

Is it me, or is the Macy's One Day Sale like...every day? Not just one day, but...all of them? What is that?

I think Britney is going to bomb at the VMAs. She is such a trainwreck.

So, what is everyone going to be for Halloween??? I know it's probably silly, but I still do Halloween. D's law school throws a huge mega party for Halloween, and TONS of people all come, probably over 300 people, all in costume. Very cool.

I have a few criteria for costumes.
- I usually don't do the "Slutty [insert occupation here]" Seriously, it's gotten out of hand. I've seen slutty pharmacists, slutty baseball players. What's next? Slutty meter maid? Slutty MTA worker? Slutty clerk.
- No masks. Masks are annoying. Masks are warm. Masks are too easy. Masks obstruct drinking.
- No excessive props. I hate carrying things. If it's soemthing I can put over my shoulder or across my back or around my neck or strap on a belt (like a sword or something), that's okay.
- It can't be too common. I do not want to be one of five Britneys or anything like that.
- It can't be toooo obscure. A little obscure is okay, but it's annoying to have to explain your costume all night.
- Fabulous is a plus.
- Clever is a plus.
- Make up, costume, wigs, all that is fine.
- I'm all about the details and try to go for wow/accuracy factor.

Ideas? Suggestions?

Yesterday's party was okay. I had margaritas, and now I am bloated. Grooooooosss.

The after thing, 1st Friday, was okay, but I'm an outrageous critic, especially of art because I draw and paint, and the art was horrible! I mean, I guess it's cool that Albany is making an effort, but I think the problem is that if you're seriously trying to launch an art career, ummm....

NYC is about 2 hours away, and all the really good artists probably just go here and don't stick around in Albany.

That being said, maybe I should just quit my job and make mediocre art and sell it for hundreds or thousands of dollars. Thoughts?

Honestly though, I think I have too much respect for art and the art world to sell crap. There is already enough crap polluting the art world. Ugh. Wow. That was so pretentious.

Still, it was good to get out and do something and make an effort to do something, so that's good. Hurray for me!

My dog is awesome.

I think he should be the hero of his own children's books.

He is the king of cuddle, and he now fights shadows. It is the most amazingly fun thing to watch ever.

I am procrastinating big time. I should be reading about how to negotiate.

*Yawn*

I wish my new workout stuff was here. I'm SO excited about it!

I love that dorky is a mood choice. I feel like such a dork right now.

A Sephora is opening up in our mall in November. *Excitement*
