In Honor of MFAMB and Reasons AHS makes me miz...

Ok, so if you haven't started watching American Horror Story, you need to. And if you haven't started reading MFAMB, (My Favorite & My Best) then you BETTER. Because she's hilarious and says hilarious things. And I realize very few people read my blog now since I've been MIA for...ever...but srsly. If you start doing these 2 things, you will thank me.

SO. MFAMB does the most amazing recaps of AHS...so I'm not trying to steal her recaps. The only recap action I will give you is that Tate is ON FIRE with his smack talk tonight....dayum boy. And Violet's scary Precious Moment Doll eyes are so sad...so so sad.

poor little Vy...

REASONS WHY AHS RUINED MY DREAMS.....

1. Every Wednesday night when I was this show, I have to either a. drink myself down, or b. stay up zombie faced and watch like 3 more hours of TV so I can forget what just assaulted my face/brain.

2. I used to want a basement....eff that noise. NOT happening anymore. Thanks AHS. Well..no one in Texas really has basements so it's not the end of the world...

3. I will NEVER EVER, never ever, NEVER EVER, go into an attic again. I already am afraid of them...and now it's just unbearable.

4. I will automatically assume that people who give me the stink eye at work are actually dead zombies who are trapped at work forever and can't leave and they are just jealous....far-fetched....but true.

5. I AM SO SO SO SCARED OF THE DENTIST NOW. Which really grinds my gears, especially since the dentist was the ONE doctor that I wasn't petrified of....I am a total hippie inside and don't like western meds or doctors very much. Me and my chiropractor and holistic doc and acupuncturist are BFF's though.

6. I am now 1,000,000,000,000,000,000% sure that I am psychic and sensitive to the supernatural. If red nailed cray cray lady is, then I for SURE am.

That's it for now...but good NIGHT, this episode is just all kinds of freaking me out already... My self diagnosed ADDDDDDDD is about to kick in and this blog post is going to eat shit and die if I try to keep writing....

oh and check out MFAMB, she's the tits.

pee.ess...has anyone noticed if something is up with Violet's teeth??? Did she get veneers???

Delicious.

We all know I'm psychic, but recently aside from being internally magic, my outside is magic.
Here's the grind. I recently was running out of body wash. I have purchased the Dayna Decker line of body wash and moisturizer, which is INCREDIBLE, but being as it rings in at almost 50 bucks a bottle, I use that sparingly. Dayna Decker is also very very concentrated, and I don't want to be "that girl" at work who smells SO SO SO SO SO SO strongly of perfume. I consider this stuff to be liquid GOLD and use it on weekends, date night, etc. etc. My personal favorite scent is "Bardou" which contains, pink peppercorn, fresh greens, wild rose, pink peony (my FAVORITE), cardamom and redwood. MAGIC.
So I found myself needing body wash, not wanting to use up all my DD magic, but also not wanting to be super cheap and buy regular drugstore stuff. Especially since it's fall and my skin gets super duper dry. GROSS.
I shimmied over to ULTA and decided to peruse the aisles. After some hardcore browsing, I found some interesting sale going on. Buy one, get one 50% off, forC.BOOTH products. I thought, what the Hell, might as well give it a try. So I bought, the Rosemany Mint cleanser, and the DELICIOUS magical Walnut Shell Scrub & Cleanser. Let me tell you, these are both SUPER reasonably priced, and I LOVE THEM. The rosemary mint smells incredible, and it's super refreshing, hydrating and overall delicious. The Walnut Shell Scrub smells like a vanilla cake mated with an almond biscotti, then they decided to make it an orgy and invite creamy buttercream and vanilla bean bliss. IT SMELLS LIKE PURE MAGIC. And the walnut shell is a super amazing exfoliant, I feel so clean and shiny!
I also want to try the "Breathe Easy" body wash which will undoubtedly be incredible when I get my first cold of the season. It has a fresh zingy menthol smell and sinus clearing freshness that I think I would love in cold season.
Anywho, thought I should share! Have a great smelling day!

My ACL predictions for 2011....because I'm Part Magic.

Good morning and Happy Belated Cinco de Mayo my friends!

Since it’s Friday after Cinco de Mayo and I’m feeling extra spicy…I am going to be super ballsy and make my ACL 2011 lineup predictions. The official lineup comes out May 17th (I’m counting down the hours/minutes/seconds) but here is a list of my predictions: 

For headliners:

Red Hot Chili Peppers: here’s why; they are supposedly releasing an album in august/september and I think they’d be a GREAT addition to the lineup. It’s ACL’s 10th anniversary show this year so this would be amazeballs.

Radiohead: This deliciously wonderful band has been rumored to play ACL for the last year or two, and I think this might be our lucky year y’all. Especially with the release of Lotus Flower. 

Paul Simon/Willie Nelson/Buffalo Springfield for the Sunday night closer: Why? Because they’re cool. Oh and who doesn’t love them? I vote for Willie. He’s perfect for an anniversary show in Texas. 

My Morning Jacket: only because I’ve heard rumors and they’re playing at Coachella, they also headlined at Jazzfest last year. Also, their new single “Circuital” makes my heart smile and shoot rainbows.

I could be wrong with those headliners. Now here is my list that include Lollapalooza 2011 lineup shows that I think will do ACL, and some returning shows from ACL 2010. Don’t worry. I’ll tell you which is which…you’re welcome.

ACL 2010 Returning Acts for 2011:

Muse. Put on one of the best shows I’ve seen last year. They’re playing Lolla and headlined las year. I just don’t know where they’d put them. Possibly where Deadmau5 played last year…hmmm…

Spoon. Because who doesn’t love them some Spoon?

Band of Horses. Most beautiful show last year. Sunset and amazing sound. I haven’t heard much of what they’re up to lately but I’d love to see them back.

Black Keys. Popular hit to see. Playing Lolla also.

Matt & Kim. I don’t think enough people appreciated them last year,so I’d like to see them back.

Portugal.The Man. They’ve been blowing up as of late, played last year and are cool enough to play at Lolla.

Rebelution. Another one that’s been blowing up and pretty damn good too. Also played ACL last year. 

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros: Ok, so he’s a little bizarre, who cares? He’s awesome. Last year he drew a huge crowd. Although lately I’ve been enjoying Alexander’s solo stuff. This is one of my wish listers, so he can come solo or play with the MZeros.

Manchester Orchestra: Who are currently touring with Cage the Elephant. Both are also playing Lolla. Manchester was a goose-bump inducing act last year, even though it was fairly early and we were all sweating out alcohol and party time. But, WOW what a great show. Also, Cage the Elephant; who I really enjoy only drew 15 year old skater kids which was not so alarming, but I’d hope to see them back with a more mature crowd. 

Mountain Goats: Another sleeper that I slept through missed at ACL much to my dismay. I love them. Please come back! They’re also playing Lolla.

Midlake: Because everyone needs to know about Midlake. Played ACL last year too. 

Foals: I missed their Houston show, but apparently it was so awesome that someone got SHANKED. Yeah. And they played last year too (ACL). They remind me of a more rock version of Bloc Party.

Shearwater: Another 11 am show I missed. And I was PISSED. They’re like Sigur Ros’s red headed step child, but in English. Comprende? AWESOME.

Balmorhea: LOVE. And I missed them last year at ACL. Such good ear candy.

Dan Black: I would love to have a mini Dan Black to keep in my purse. His show at ACL last year was SO SO FUN, and who doesn’t love him? (Brad from The Rachel Zoe Project still wins in my heart)

OK: Onto Lolla 2011 lineup that I haven’t already mentioned, hopefully these will cross over into ACL

My Morning Jacket: Already talked about their magical-ness.

Deadmau5: Who also played ACL last year, blew everyone away, (duh!) 

Cee-Lo Green: He’s dumb and leaked that he was playing ACL this year, then ACL forced him to take that info offline. I was underwhelmed by this. blech.

Ween. Good stuff. Also playing Free Press Summer Fest in Houston this June.

Bright Eyes. Would love to see him.

Arctic Monkeys. Could fill Vampire Weekend’s slot and they are good, which helps. New music release as well.

Death From Above 1979. This would be fun to see. Especially since someone at this show at SXSW got STABBED. Damn.

Ratatat. Great group, lots of music to play. I’m just a wee bit scared what they’ll be like live. But I’m stoked.

Crystal Castles. Another one I’ve been dying to see, hopefully they’ll stay for ACL.

Cold War Kids. I recently missed them here in Houston. Good stuff, especially “Hang Me up to Dry” love.

Lykke Li. Really talented artist, love her.

Ok Go. Would be a super fun band to see.

Local Natives. Also a great group, could def. see them taking a day show.

The Kills. Delicious music. U R A Fever and Sour Cherry are amazing.

White Lies. A sleeper worth waking up to watch.

2 Door Cinema Club. Also played ACL last year, and were apparently really great. I’ve never seen them live but have heard many a good thing.

Sleigh Bells. HELLZ YES PLEASE. Just saw them recently in Houston, and a show like this could totally be amazing at ACL.

Smith Westerns. Great show.

Best Coast. Another band I’ve been dying to see live. Fingers crossed!

The Drums. Have come back lately into the spotlight and are bound to put on a great live set.

Black Lips. Good stuff.

Cults. Another one I’d like to check out for myself.

Noah + The Whale. Gaining popularity, wouldn’t mind watching that one.

Lissie. I missed her in concert. I think she’s great, she played Coachella as well.  

Ok, so now onto the ones that I just really really really REALLY REALLY would like to see at ACL and could maybe maybe maybe make an appearance…

Fleet Foxes. Ok, I don’t know if I can describe how much I love this band. When I first heard “White Winter Hymnal” I replayed it over.and over.and over.and over.and over and again. AND every time I heard it I couldn’t help but smile and bounce. Their new album “Helplesness Blues” released only 3 days ago will blow.your.socks.off. So, please please please bring Fleet Foxes to ACL!

Mumford & Sons: I mean…need I say more? INCRED. Also, they’ve been touring withAvett Brothers doing the railroad revival tour, AND they played opening weekend of Jazzfest. I will die of happiness if they are both featured.

Florence + The Machine. What has she been up to? I think she’d be a great addition. She has two shows here in America listed in June, and that’s it….surprise us Flo and come to ACL!

That’s all folks. I mean, I could add more but then I’d get my hopes up wayyy too much!

WillYooMaryMii and Some other Cray Cray Bits...

K so I've recently been assigned a LOAD of non-fun-ness at work, basically lots of numbers and letters and combinations of letters and numbers, and I have the math skills of a 3 year old with severe ADHD and Dyslexia. Yeah. That bad. 


Ask my friends and my college math professor. I took "football player math" at Vanderbilt...twice. Yeah. I was supposed to be the "shining star" and turns out the dudes with like 2 brain cells left did better than I did....maybe it was also combined with the fact that it was at 8AM, my FIRST SEMESTER, my boyfriend was in the class, and he skipped too (I'm basically saying it was his fault...bad influence...he was older), and I'm NOT a morning person, especially when there are parties to be had.....I DIGRESSIONATE.

My co-worker sent me a website where you can buy the same engagement ring that Edward gives Bella. WHAT.THE.PFEFFERNUSSE. 

you can buy the ring HERE. Not that you'd want to...you would? ew.

I mean I'm all in love with vamps and sparkly hot (I guess in real life they'd be cold, but whatev) men and what not, but COME ON. When you're 90 and looking at this ring, you might think differently. PLUS, it's not really pretty. Nor does it look like a real live engagement ring. It looks like something you could buy at FOREVER21 for $5.80 (I heart forever21, but it's not where I want my engagement ring from...obvi). So, they also give you options. You can have the CHEAP version, the MEDIUM CHEAP version, and the REAL version. Who the EFF is going to know? I honestly think its creep-tastic. Thoughts???

Other Cray Cray Bits for you:

I have three term papers left to write then I AM DONE-ZO. 

My professor used the word "TROLL" in class the other day and I lit-rilly almost had to walk out because I was about to go all loosey goosey and crack up. 

CARISSA and I collaborated and created the word "DOUCHENGOYLE" to describe a stupid dude. It is a combination of "douche canoe" and "gargoyle". Use it. Love it. Spread it. Like BUTTAH. 

I decided what I'm going to name my next dog. Actually, I might get one soon. You all know how my precious baby love nugget is currently named Sushi, and I'm getting her a sister (I think/hope) and naming her Shinko. It's a japanese name for a girl, and also a type of Sushi. You're jealous.  I've accidentally been calling Sushi "Shinko" and she's all "bitch get my name right"...

Allright, I have a confesh. 
I'm secretly (not so secretly anymore) OBSESSED with the song "Red Blooded Woman" by Kylie Minogue. JUDGE ME. Then listen to it and TRY TO JUDGE ME. Miley and Britney of course remain in first place forever. Obvi. Who do you think I am?

lovelovelove, 

Mini Post #2...But you'll like it. TRUST. Maybe.

Ok, so here's a mini-post, because I've been under a rock studying. I'm praying I don't forget how to be in public after my hermit week. Blech. 

Anywhooz, you know how when you're delirious/cracked the eff out/ fighting ADD like whoah? You know how your mind wanders into the far depths of your psyche and you think of the most random stuff? Know how when you're cracked the eff out/stressed like whoa, you have cray cray dreams/nightmares that are pertinent to your current sitch? Well, my dreams have involved Drew Barrymore and Tom Hanks....weird. No correlation to what I've been studying. At all. My brain is broken. Or something like that. 

I DIGRESS...

So I know y'all don't really listen to me when I blab and blab about my music picks of the week and my "Musique Du Jour" segments, and that's fine. We can't all have fantabulous taste in  music. (See what I did there? I stroked my own ego....yeah. It just happened.) SO, my cracked out self has decided that once this shitstorm of a month is over, and I'm back to normal levels of cray cray, I think I'm going to start a music blog. Thoughts? Should I? Shan't? Spill.

In the meantime, fill your ears with this while I go back to my dark smart cave.

"Tie Up My Hands" by Starsailor. What a sexy song. I'm OBSESSIONATED. I added the video so you lazies can listen NOW. If not, go to www.lala.com DO IT.

"Basic Space" The xx

"A Perfect Day Elise (Live)" Home Video

I miss you guys! I'll be back soon! Promise.

K Wait...Screw the Aforementioned Post...

Ok so I know I said I was taking a mini-hiatus...but I figured I'd entertain you...because that's what I do...

Member when I was all "Hoe em gee I'm obsessed with Friday Night Lights and Tim Riggins??!"....it's gotten worse. I'm not kidding. I sit at work/in class all day wondering what's going to happen next, wondering if Tim will dump Lyla and choose his soulmate (me). Wondering if the Panthers will make it to state. Wondering where Tammy Taylor got those aviator sunglasses she wears....it's BAD people. And now I'm all angsty because I finished season three on instant Netflix and I have to WAIT for season 4 to be delivered via snail mail. I cant.take.it.any.longer.

I had a dream(s) about me and Riggins. We are married. We are happy. He goes to college, graduates, and now he's in a band and he writes allllll these songs about ME. I need help. SRSLY. Help me. 

Has anyone ever been this obsessionated? HELP.

Where'd she get those? I want.

He's mine. All. Mine.

Don't Be Jealous. It's fate. We're meant to be.

what you can't see is me running up behind her to TACKLE THE LITTLE SKANK. Hands.Off.NOW.

DO I need to attend TV addicts anonymous? Is this my subconscious mind telling me that my fate really is to be with Tim? Ahhhhh. Help. This warrants an episode of "Intervention". Srsly.
