Vaolo gives it two thumbs up. We took Hanna & Leah to see it after church today. Anyone else suspect the fat kid to be the same overweighter in Bad Santa? Hmm... ---------------------------- I don't think Paolo needs to be as nervous as he is about his first day tomorrow at UST. He doesn't give himself nearly enough credit. I'm so proud of him for being able to put himself out there & take the first step. He's so going to rock the house. ---------------------------- Flaker. I didn't get around to calling Michelle to ask her how her birthday thing went. This sucks for several reasons, the primary one being that she's been such a dutiful friend from day one. Birthdays, holidays, graduations - you name it; it's marked in that bitch's planner, specifically for the purpose of making you feel like an ass on days that you forget her birthday. I'm going to finish fixing her gift and will make it my duty to call that girl tomorrow (only two days late), in order to schedule a time for me to drop off her gift (at my leisure - read: flakiness). I am such a big, fat flaker. I've decided. Yes, I've decided once and for all to own up to my flakiness. I've dodged categorization and many times straight denied it for too long now. In fact, I'm going to open conversation with Michelle tomorrow with this: "Hey, Michelle. How'd the party go? Sorry for the tardiness of this call. I'm a big, fat flaker." And it will feel damn good. It will be a liberating and inspiring experience. I figure that boldly proclaiming wrongness in the situation will ameliorate and perhaps even preempt bad vibage. Applied regularly, this tactic will keep me coming out an honest, more honorable flaker in the eyes of those I flake on. It's time for owning up to personality flaws. Big pat on the back, Val. So much for New Year's Resolutions. G'nite. 1:36 am Ahh, finally home. Just got through closing at Starbizzle. I've gotten pretty fast at closing bar. Now if everyone was as devoted to getting out as soon as humanly possible, my timestamp might just read 12:50ish. But no... It's raining like Hades outside. That reminds me. Wanna hear our official shift joke from tonight? Well, you have no choice --> Q: Why does Snoop Dogg need an umbrella? A: 'Fo drizzle. Ha. Haha. Haaaaaaa...eh. ---------------------- New music recommendations Maybe I'm biased. Slug can do no wrong in my eyes. Ant can do no wrong. Ok, I'm biased. You should be too. Felt 2 is hot like fiya. So hot even Paolo likes it. In truth, it took me a sec to get over the mainstreamy, high rolling rapper lifestyle subject matter. Yet the lyrics are so smart and the production so funkay that there's no saying no. I absolutely love the direction Ant's gone in. What's more is Slug & Murs' chemistry. They bring the swagger out in each other. It'd be a cold day in hell before you'd catch Slug spitting a line like: "I'll be gettin' paid & laid up off of my name..." on an Atmosphere album. My favorite verse? Haha...somewhat ironically: MURS-"I got this punk rock chick with these tattooed hands, She dresses kinda wierd; she an Atmosphere fan. Says she loves Seven, never been with a Legend, So I took her to my room and layed her down for a blessin,' Session was impressive; open to suggestion, Had to kick her out 'cuz she asked too many questions: What's ANT like? What's Slug's favorite movie? Shot my load in her mouth and screamed F.CK YOU, LUCY! It's raw. It's raunchy & dirty. But it's a damn good album. Slug & Ant can do no wrong. 8.27 3:07 pm What You Thought You'd Probably Never See....
