I started 2 new things today:
1) Reading The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand. Should’ve read it in Highschool. Didn’t. It’s time.
2) Diet Pills - Liporexall. Because a girl needs all the help she can get. (I’ve also been told I have body dysmorphia. I call it; I’m a woman living in the world, where skinny is glorified, hence the issue see; #skinnyordie)
1 Random thing:
I’ve picked out my Roller Derby name, if I should ever join, or at least the name my Roller Derby Alter Ego will go by : Di O’bolical. I think it suits me. Perfectly.
Ok…So I recently had about two hours to myself, in which I plopped on my very cute (yet horribly uncomfortable) blue couch and watched “Whip It” on my OnDemand. I’ve been wanting to see it because I’m an Ellen Page fan, and I would watch her brush her teeth, so why not. The movie is about Roller Derby.
I’ve always been drawn to pin-ups, grungy bars, grungy-ness in general, tattoos, rock-n-roll, and ass kicking so it makes sense that Roller Derby would become my next obsessive curiosity.
This happens to me a lot when I watch movies, if they’re good or have an interesting hook of some kind, I become enthralled with transforming myself into whatever it is I just saw. After 300 I thought I was a Spartan (sans six-pack of course). When I was 6 I watched the movie “Splash”, remember that? When Tom Hanks was funny? Yeah. Well, after I watched that movie I was convinced I was a mermaid and would dive into my couch, ankles joined and just “swim”.
Either way…Back to Whip It. If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll understand the shirt I’m wearing. If you haven’t, Yes, I’m wearing a STRYPER shirt. Christian Glam Band of the 80’s. Never heard a single song they ever sang, but I heard that they throw bibles at the audience and have some strange bumblebee theme, which I think is AMAZING, so I’ll rock it anyways.
The flyer is for a local Roller Derby event, the first one I will be attending. I’m looking forward to seeing Juliette Lewis kick some ass there…wait? It’s not JUST like the movie? Oh well, I’ll go anyways.
I have a friend. She’s a guidette. Not your A-typical guidette, although she does refer to Marinara as “Gravy”, and she has accidentally dropped her phone into a heaping pot of said “Gravy” before. This picture is for her. You can call me VonWOWW.
P.S. No, that’s not a mustache it’s a poor uploading guide and shoddy programming.
Well Steve Jobs does it again, the puppet master to the lonely, trust-funded technorati has given them one more gadget they can masturbate themselves to sleep to. The highly anticipated (insert drumroll here) iPad. Yes, iPad. While the release of this giant cumbersome iTouch has been making waves across all social networks today, with both good and bad feedback, the one thing that has glued both the fans and the haters of this new toy together is the giant upset in the naming. (Should’ve gone with iSlate Steve)
Personally I don’t even own an iPhone so I’m sure my opinion doesn’t matter, however I’m completely confused by what the hell this iPad has to offer. If you already have a laptop, and an iPhone, and an iPod, why would you need this thing? You can’t put it in your pocket, it’s not gonna get you laid, and you’re not going to throw away your other devices and replace it with this one, so why would you schlep your happy ass down to, that fuckhole of an inconvenience known as, the Apple Store and shell out $500 to get yourself one?
Perhaps it can digitally prevent bloating during that time of the month. Now THAT would be worth it. Does it come with wings?
RACING LIGHTS
BY: STARS OF TRACK AND FIELD
Words cannot express my love for this band. It goes well beyond mere fan-dom. I got to know two of the three gents in this band and I can say that they are truly fascinating and talented people. I don’t plug just any song, or any band, it’s not my style. But these guys are worthy of your time. Here is the new video for their song “Racing Lights” off of A Time for Lions. Check it out.
I played The Beatles RockBand for the first time tonight. It was absolutely everything I had envisioned. I had been anticipating it’s arrival since I first caught wind of it’s inception and I was NOT disappointed. I know I’m late in the game. Snot nosed geeks that think The Beatles are merely a pop culture blip have been playing this game for a while now, taking it’s greatness for granted. There are sound clips in between sets for fuck!
Either way. It’s wonderful, it separates us from the Modern Warfare fans. It’s like LA and NY…pick one! I pick The Beatles (and NY) that’s what I’m about, that’s how it is. You’re either with me or against me.
I’m babbling. I’ve had a bit of wine…
Beatles RockBand = the shit.
I’m on a diet
again.
the stakes are high this time around
15 lbs by March 31st
or
I’m jumping out of an airplane.
If you see me…don’t feed me.
thanks

I’ve been obsessed with this song for a couple of years now. I feel the rest of the world should be too. enjoy!
