Heard it thru the Grapevine....Xmas style

I used to be....how do you say?.....a little obsessed with the California Raisins. Not sure if it's because I am from California, or the fact that one dude plays a mean saxophone...but regardless, I love the little guys. I even had California Raisin slippers...which basically looked like big pieces of poo on my feet. So when they came out with a Claymation Xmas special...I pretty much lost my mind.

And ever since I watched it...I always say "Here we come a "WAFFELING" and people look at me like I am nuts....but here is proof in the pudding that I am not THAT crazy:

Also...their version of "we three kings" is pretty damn funky. I Here it is.....I also used to sing this all funky when I would hear it on the radio years later, and I could not figure out why I always wanted to "break it down" when I would listen to it, but once again....watch the video and you will figure out why:

But this one probably takes the cake:

Bacon Key

If I don't already have carpal tunnels, this little button would be a sure fire way to develop it!

The Dream Team

Pretty much the most awesome combo EVER!

This Superbowl Sampler of Candles was pretty much made for me!! It's almost scary. I mean, come on...Pizza? CHECK. Bacon? CHECK. Beer? CHECK. Popcorn? UM why the F' not?

(ps: I just unfortunately/ fortunately came across this website "Etsy"....WOWZA......dangerzone. I am like freaking out. I have the same sorta feeling like when I first searched "John Travolta" on Ebay years ago. Holy schnikes. This site has so much dope stuff....homemade/ vintage....nutzo. I searched bacon, otters and devo and almost had a heart attack......)

Too bad it wasn't a stick of butter, huh Paula?

(Is that George Bush Sr. in the background?)

I ain't 'fraid no Ghost

It's almost Thanksgiving and Christmas is right around the corner which means that Halloween is long gone...

But a little pumpkin dance never hurt anyone.

Oh ...and ....awesome Halloween costume for next year? I say, damn straight.

I think I know what I want for my Birthday

Rave it out

Draft Text Messages

These are all real draft text messages from my cell phone that were somehow, for some reason or another, never actually sent. Enjoy....and don't worry...I have no idea what half of them mean either. Also...note-these are all exactly typed as they appear on my phone. I changed nothing. Too bad my draft message folder does not record the time or date at which these were created. That would probably help us understand what I was trying to say at least a little bit more.....or so one would think. Anyhoo...here ya go:

October is National Pizza Month

Wow....am I late to the game or what? And I am a little ashamed and pretty embarrassed that I am just NOW on Oct 21., realizing that October is National Pizza Month. Well, this guy obviously loves pizza more than I do because he has a website called 31 Days of Pizza (<-----click). Check it out. This lucky son of a gun is going to a different pizza place each day of the month. What an awesome idea. Some may say that they would get sick of pizza 31 days in a row. But this little lady would have to disagree. To me....that sounds like heaven on earth. Damn it. Well. I guess I do have 10 days left. Better late than never! I think I know what's for dinner tonight (and tomorrow and the next day and the next....)

Brontosaurus would never do this to you

Just one more reason why T-Rex is lame and Long Necks are DOPE

No...but seriously.....

WHAT? I don't even know where to begin with this picture.

(I wish I could say that I made this but I didn't...just something weird that came up during a random google search. Lord only knows what my search terms were that led me to this gem)

RRRRRRRR-Ruffles have BACON?

Creepy Crawlies in Golden Gate Park

So yesterday as I was walking T-Mac around Golden Gate Park, I came upon the weirdest thing I haven ever seen coming crawling out of the bushes. No...it was not a creepy bum. That would not be that weird for this park. No....it was not one of the cute lil' squirrels or ducks that T-Mac loves to chase...Nope...none of those either.

So I was walking right by Stow lake and was thinking about how much I like this quiet little path by the water, when I looked down and saw this nasty looking “weird red/ lobster/ crayfish/ scorpion” thing. It was crawling away from the bushes and up onto the path I was walking on.

I was like "HOLY!!!!! AHHHHHH!"

I froze.

It froze.

Despite me going "T-mac look..look...LOOK" while pulling his leash towards the little creature assuming that he would start barking or something. T-Mac did not even see it. He just kept glancing right over it and looked at me like WTF? - But the little weird red/ lobster/ crayfish/ scorpion still got freaked out by my big dog so it rocked back on its tail and raised its pincers in the air. It was at least 6 inches from tip of the tail to its head. It looked like something out of a discovery channel pre-historic documentary show or something. It was freaking WEIRD. And of course, T-Mac, the dog, STILL did not even see it. I picked up a stick to see if this lobster/ scorpion would pinch it with its pincers but it wouldn't. It just sat there balancing- ready to pounce on us.

So since T-Mac obviously didn't care about the creepy thing, we just left it there, looking all creepy with its antennae twitching around- being gross and me pretty weirded out. I came home and tried to explain what I saw to my roommate- what that little creature looked like and how it balanced on its tail and I sounded like a crazy person. Especially the part about it looking like a red lobster since lobsters only turn red AFTER you cook them. So I decided to google it to figure out what it was. I was having a hard time finding stuff using the terms "red/ lobster/ crayfish/ scorpion" but then I finally came up on this posting. It's good to know that I am NOT crazy and that other people have seen the same little weird creature. I just hope to not see another one. Not really my bag.
