Just Whitsle While I Exploit You Little Animals, I Mean Work

SO TODAY...

I hit a bird! (*winces*)

I was driving home from dropping off my beloved at work when these two birds were on a main road at 60km/hour. I'm the kind of person who slows down slightly and will avoid squirrels and other wildlife on the road. I'm a big softie for little woodland creatures

*breaks out into song, and starts dancing with little animals*

no really...

anywho after hitting the poor thing, I actually held my breath for a while until I knew I wouldn't cry!
IT'S TOO DAMN EARLY IN THE MORNING TO BE DEALING WITH EMOTIONAL SHIT!!!!

... Again... I am a softie for little animals

So I just prayed that the thing was dead. But when I drove past the only thing I looked back to check and see if the thing flew away or was on the ground. And I didn't see either of them.
within seconds, I had this dreading feeling telling me that one and or both of the birds may be on my car. (EEEEEEEE.... HOLDING BREATH!!!)

I worried, but was less than a few minutes from home so I drove home and went to look at the front of my car.

There was a poor bird hanging from my cracked bumper. I ran inside screaming for my fiance's little brother to grab some heavy duty gloves
(Hey! If it was ME who got hit with a car, I would be using my sharp looking beak to peck someone's eye out!)
Anywho, his wing was stuck in the crack of my car. I just pulled on it a little bit with one hand under the creature and then he just haphazardly fell into my hand.

HOLDING BREATH AND RESISTING URGE TO YELL SORRY AT THE POOR LITTLE BIRD

... and then it fell asleep almost peacefully in my hand

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH TURNING BLUE!!! NEED TO BREATH

after a few minutes it just opened it`s eyes looked at me and fluttered away!
I named him Mort and Mort is a Northern Flicker. (insert picture here):

Isn`t he cute...
Sorry little Mort, I didn`t mean to hit you with a heavy machine that probably scared the living shit out of you!!
*wails* I`M SO SORRY!!!



PS. I found out I can upload pictures from a large computer but it kills my little laptop! With that new discovery comes boatloads of pictures of other things I promised you all!

FOOD CRUSADE START TOMORROW!!!

Leaping Lizards!

SO TODAY...

I am staring at my new pet!

AN IGUANA!!!

He is so cool! one of the tattoo artists at the place where I got my very first tattoo (More about that later), was giving it away because he doesn't have the space or time for it! Well me and my fiance want lizards (because he is allergic to fur). So we volunteered to take him off of his hands.

His name is Chub Chub!

Now I think this is hilarious because my leopard gecko name is Fat Boy (because he is fat!)

Fat Boy and Chub Cub...

I didn't co-ordinate this I swear!

Now I am hoping to get a bearded dragon, and am trying to figure out a name for him so he'll get in the theme of the names of my lizards. Any suggestions??

I love chub chub and he seems to be getting used to us. he sleeps on my arm already, but his previous owner never put him in a tank and I need to put him in a tank when I am not home.

Anywho, he likes to perch on top of my head!
apparently I am a tree, even tho I am the shortest person of my friends and family. (except for my mother and sister of course)

So In Other News:

I got my first tattoo the other day.
It is a bar of music on my thigh, and the script under it says:
If music be the food of love, sing on, sing on,
sing on till I filled with joy

... It hurt like a mother fucker!

The guy had to push down with his tattoo gun to do straight lines, and not for them to be wobbly.

It's still healing, so when it's healed I'll try and post a picture


back to the drawing board for posting pics!! Please be patient

Peace!

Burning Up the Midnight Oil

SO TODAY...

I am finally fully recovered from my all nighter shift.
We had some renos at my store, and there were a bunch of us girls who were there, most of them were only till 10 and then some of us were 10 till 6am!!! it was so much fun.

at some point or another I got this huge boost of energy and was extremely chipper. and the girls just looked at me like I should jump off the banister in the mall and plummet to my certain death!

I actually really only got tired about half an hour after I was supposed to be off! I ended up staying till 7! wwwhhheeeeeeeeee!
On my way out of the mall, I meandered down the empty hallway towards my car, and slowly closed my eyes, in small periods that lased a little longer.
... think blinking in slow motion!

anywho, I ended up closing my eyes for a fair minute and opened them just as I walked into the wall! I had the indent of ridged ornate bricks on my forhead!

ouch!

in other news:

Otafest is this weekend! Yay! geeky anime convention! I JUST finished my costume last night and it seriously is awesome!I am going as the chick from Team Magma from Pokemon! I've also made snorlax's costume and chancey's! All I have left to do is paint the pokeballs for my belt!

also this week, I have taught one of my guy friends to wax his own legs! (don't ask me why, most men when they wear short shorts for a costume they just shave!)
he's a Go-Big-or-Go-Home kind of person!

Also, this weekend I am getting my first tattoo!
you'll just either have to see me to know what it is or whenever I get around to posting pictures!

I know I know, I still owe you guys pictures from Alice
I'm actually going to do it the second I post this!

I AM GOING TO LA SOON!

I know it's pretty lame but I have submitted a tattoo idea to High Voltage Tattoo (Think LA Ink), I am hoping to hear from them soon! I mean I know they accept walk in but I really want them to do it and an appointment would be better, because then I can also choose the artist.
I will be going at the end of June! It's gonna be so hot! I'll probably want to walk around naked, or just set up a kiddie tent right next to the air conditioning. But I'll probably have to fight my fiance for that spot!

Also, coming up is the food crusade! I will be posting the final 100 places soon!

Ciao Bellas

Move Over Diamonds, Panties are my Best Friend!

SO TODAY...

is a wonderful day to update!

3rd update for the day! As today is a wonderful day!
as the last update was for nearly a week ago, this is one for the last few days!

and what's so super dooper special that I am updating 3 times today?

... well...

I've been working (Taa Daa!)

I know I know that probably wasn't what you were thinking was so special except except...

I LOVE MY JOB!

|I wake up every morning and think omg! I have the best job in the world!

.. I have this weird thing about underwear. I love panties, and take pride in wearing cute panties that make my ass look absolutely fantastic. In any color I like, and comfortable. And matching it with a bra that makes my rack look good and perky.

Hey, I may be a curvy girl with a little extra fat around the middle, but I have natural god-given rack that is hugely fabulous with an ass that skinny girls are jealous about that makes jeans look good.

... what can I say? I love my job!

anywho, as the new assistant manager I get to do things I love, catching small details and making sure things are running smoothly, and things are done.
... Yes I am a control freak, why do you ask?

well apparently they really like me, because I am taking over one of the largest stores in the city!

In other news, today in a specific incident, I was in the back room of my new store, getting familiar with all the stock and it's home on the shelves and one of the girls that was filling the floor asked me to pull this pink frilly bra.

and in the back of my head I hear a phrase. A drunken phrase that I find spitefully annoying. My friend quotes it frequently and it just gets under my skin.

"pink... is the new black." says a drunk avenged sevenfold member in a terribly cutesy but certainly drunk voice. "pink."

it repeated over and over in my head and i found myself saying that annoying phrase.

"pink, is the new black. pink..."
"pink, is the new black. pink..."
"pink, is the new black. pink..."
"pink, is the new black. pink..."
"pink, is the new black. pink..."
"pink, is the new black. pink..."

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

as I had this annoying voice reigning over what I was hearing, I thought about pummeling my dearly (soon to be departed) friend.

Rest in Peace Friend

you only have moments to live, so I would run little prey, because you are my friend, I will give you a head start 5 seconds.

1...2...3... BANG!

too bad! you suck!

FOOD CRUSADE STARTING!! EMAIL ME YOUR SUGGESTIONS!

Rock Band Candy!

So here is a video for you kiddies!

Lady Gaga/Cartmen/Christpoher Walker Mash Up!

I know it sounds lame, but it's pretty cool


OH OH OH

and I found out that you can download Poker Face on ROCK BAND!!
I'M GOING HOME TO DOWNLOAD THAT NOW!!!!!

It's Just a Jump to the Left

SO TODAY

I have plenty to report, My computer has been down since tuesday, so let's pretend we go back in time and it's tuesday.

let's do the time warp again!
[crazy dance]

So tuesday, I unexpectedly had the day off, so I decided to get some errands done! I went to chapter's to get a day timer. Because they have very chick (sh-ee-ck) portable cute daytimers (usually, anyways). Well... they didn't have any daytimers. Apparently May of that year is a bad time to get a day timer for the year we are in.

Go Figure!

anywho, since it is one of my fav stores (you don't want to know how how much I "saved" when my reminder to renew my card comes in), I decided to take a gander around the store. With me was a good friend and my fiance. We found this book that is called "Undateable".

... wtf?

So we flip through it and it was a book about what makes a man "undateable" and if you have nay of these characteristics, you would be considered undateable to sexy single women. The first couple were self explanatory. 1. bad facial hair (teen 'stach, soul patch, food in your big beard) 2. wigger clothes, when you are a upper class white man 3. moobs ect... and then there are a few that I really don't understand. Such as making movie references, or play DnD, and others like it.

... Things like that are a personal choice, I love DnD, I can understand people who don't understand. But hey, that turns my crank that people can strategize and have a big enough imagination to play these kind of games without any visual aids!

I know that not all people get that or are interested, but there are a lot of good looking social people who play DnD! We even group together to play in large groups, in the geek community. with some very attractive people, not just pimply little snot-nosed kids, who wear capes everywhere! but hey they do exist.

So, after being slightly offended (even though it's not directed at, but is trying to tell males what I want apparently), I flipped to the back!

SHE WAS A CHACHI BIMBO!!!

"ugly, but thinks I'm pretty" face with some not so very attractive man who has the smile of a douche bag, like "oh yea... you know you want me"

... uh, NO!!!!

anywho, after getting a good laugh at that stupid bitch, I decided that since I was alone for the night (my lovable fiance was working), I called up two of my guy friends (from my DnD group) and we went to Boston Pizza.

... we only went there because we couldn't decide on a place that had something we all liked

anywho, so I wasn't driving for once and so decided that I would treat myself to an alcoholic drink that I haven't indulged in for a while (it could be because I live with 2 recovering alcoholics hmmm... ) and ordered a cosmo. When it arrived, she said that they taste like ether. my response...

"Potion?"

She looked at me funny, and as she walked away, I asked one of my friends.
"I know the video game reference, but what the hell, in the real world, is ether?"

here was his response.

"In Final Fantasy, ether potions increase your mana. In pokemon, it increases your power points (for those who don't understand, that's ok), in the real world, it is a form of the date rape drug!" [his voice, is that of pleasantness, as though he is describing a peaceful happy scene]

... yummy!

momentarily after this little description, a waiter walks by, with a small patch of hair on his jawline, but it is 3 inches to the right of his face from where it's supposed to be...


UNDATEABLE!!!!

also, within the same dinner session, both of my friends received a phone call from a person I'm trying to avoid.

at comic con, there was s guest that this person who I wasn't trying to avoid at the time wanted her signature. He gave me his bag and gave me some money to get signed. Problem was, he gave it to me saturday night, and she wasn't there sunday. (AARGH!) So I had every intention of giving him back his bag and money, I had it in my vehicle to give to him.

But instead of texting me or messaging me where we can meet up, he called up my friends and asked them for my address.

... is he planning to rob my house?

No he didn't ask them to tell me to call him, or pass along the message about his bag and money. he essentially harrased my friends and fiance (yes my fiance) for my address!!!

CREEPY!!!

Dear Creep,

If I wanted you to know where I lived, I would have told you already.

you are a terribly annoying person, who I have protected to my friends and people who know you, who don't particularily like you, and yet here you prove them right and my wrong that you are just plain creepy and annoyoing.

thank you asshole, Go Fuck Yourself

love truly,

Tasha

Much Ado About Nothing

SO TODAY...

I ponder about the last week or so, and how terribly busy I have been.

I have succeeded is slaying the monster that is finding a new job! Rolling extreme crit 20's (whoo hoo) I slayed the beast, looted the body and gained plenty of experience and some good cash!

I am now the assistant manager for a location of LaSenza. (Yay! underwear!) I have been training at one location and I ADORE the people there. They all have been understanding as I blunder around, figuring out how to manage and do all the regular duties as well (I rolled a lot of 1 and 3's when learning these new found skills in the last week).

I am also recovering from the solid weekend at the comic expo here in Calgary. The official Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo just passed and it was FREAKIN AWESOME!!!

There was an awesome guest of Leonard Nimoy, and Alina Pete from Weregeek [www.weregeek.com], and many more. I decided to harass Ryan Sohmer (writer of Least I Could Do and Looking for Group) on behalf of Lar Desouza (the artist), who wants to print a poster and more merchandise for the "Least I Could Do" comic, which was much needed!

I took a shit load of pictures of awesome costumes, and one of a girl that I had no idea what she was, but a friend who came with me knew her. So I did the polite thing and took her picture.

oooo...ooo...ooooo SOMEONE DRESSED LIKE THE OLD SPICE GUY! he had an old spice bottle to pose with and everything. I squee'd while taking his picture.

ooo...ooo...oooo and and and and.... I'm going to see Dr.Horrible's Sing-a-long Blog here in Calgary. YAY! Captain Hammer! and and and Dr.Horrible!

bad horse, bad horse
he rides across the nation
the thoroughbred of sin
He got the application
That you just sent it

It needs evaluation
So let the games begin
A heinous crime, a show of force
A murder would be nice of course

(by the way if you haven't figured it out, it's the lyrics for the bad horse theme song, the ultimate villain)

In other news, the food crusade starts in a month, and I need some suggestions for other places. I will be posting a listing of all the places that I will be visiting.

the rules?
Not part of a chain
can include coffee places, wine tastings, breakfast, or anything of the sort, that feeds your stomach in any way shape or form
no night clubs, but good pubs with good food are acceptable
nothing with food poisoning records please, this is supposed to be an enlightening experience not the sickening experience.
I LIKE THE CONTENTS OF MY STOMACH WHERE THEY ARE THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

anywho with much news, I am hoping to update more now that I have settled into my job, and with the food crusade there will be definite food for thought
