random observations

I watched 3 hours of the greatest 100 songs of the '90s last night while cleaning my apartment. My apartment was trashed, so it was that time. While I watched VH1, I had some thoughts in no specific order.

1. How is Brett Michaels famous enough to have a house full of skanks who want to maryy him? Poison hasn't released a song in a decade. He wears a bandanna because he is bald. On the other hand, the idea of having girls who want to date you audition on a strip club pole is a very valid way of finding your soulmate.

2. Scott Baio? Really? This bothers me more than number 1.

3. A Brady has his own reality show about his model wife not sure if she wants to have a baby because her boobs won't look as good? This is worth an entire season? I understand why the world hates us if they are stuck with our tv.

4. I know the words to a lot of boy band songs from the '90's. Like whole verses of Backstreet Boys songs. This worries me a lot. It's tearing out my heart when I'm with you. And when we are apart I feel it too. With or without you. Enough said.

5. There were a ton of commercials for feminine hygiene products. I guess the 90's caused a lot of pms symptoms.

6. I feel cheated that Kurt Cobain didn't make any more music.

7. I found my Hootie and the Blowfish debut album when I was cleaning. It is now on my Ipod. What a great cd.

8. The 90's had some great tunes. I feel sorry for all the freshman I'm around who don't remember when Hit Me Baby One More Time owned TRL for 4 months or whatever.

9. Speaking of Britney, wow, what else can you say? Her early stuff before her slut phase was really sexy. She could sing a little too. She was no Christina, but she was ok. Good luck with all that Britney.

Hallelujah Hollaback.

so i went to vegas for a wedding july '07

I thought this one was up already but I only had it on myspace so I cross posted it.

So I was invited to Vegas for a wedding by Jess and Jake. myspace.com/push180 is jake and jess is www.myspace.com/prollytheawesomest. Jess runs the coffee shop in Litchfield and that is how we met. I have been looking for an excuse to go to Vegas so when they invited me I said definitely. I got to Vegas and the first night there I went with Jake his brother and dad and we drank some at the piano bar. We then met up with the girls at the piano bar. I left a bit early and played poker. Kinda hazy on details but the next morning i played some cards and then went to the MGM were Jess had reserved a cabana. That was pretty stellar. I definitely recommend it to anyone heading that way. I then got buzzed and went and played cards again. At this point I got really, really drunk while playing cards and then went to the piano bar at 9 to meet everyone. I was wearing my one nice suit with a bright blue hawaiin shirt my sister bought me. For the record, when you buy Jake a round he then buys you about four. Just so you know. At this point I felt no pain and there are pictures of me standing on a chair. Singing. Along with Journey. U2. The Killers. on the table. I also danced with Megan to that I would walk 500 miles song. We were both drunk.

After the bar closed at 2 i then decide to play poker until 11. When I can't keep my eyes open anymore I go to bed. I then sleep through my alarm for the wedding and wake up an hour after the wedding. I felt pretty bad. Jess, Jake I really do feel bad about that.

I give Jake a call and meet up with the group at Circus Circus to eat steak. My stomach felt so bad I went to gag myself twice. Didn't work. Felt horrible for about 24 hours.

That's Vegas.
