Ellen


There are many things that I dream of doing with me life.. growing up to be Ellen DeGeneres is one of them.

Reasons why her job rocks:

1. She opens every show with an awesome dance where she runs up and down the audience and does things like sing to pregnant women's bellies ( which I think is hilarious)

2. She gets men and women alike to roar with laughter every show

3. She has at least one game played every episode. Today's was sheer brilliance. look it up, it's called the marshmallow game. It made me laugh so loud and for so long.

4. She talks to celebrities like they are her best friends ( if you know me, you know this would be a huge step.)

5. She never has a show entitled " fat suit" or "fathers gone mad" like Oprah or Dr. Phil, Ellen's show is pure entertainment.

Reasons why I could not be Ellen:

1. She is a lesbian.

What will Lean Cuisines buy me now?




Well I acheived my goal of eating lean cuisines for 3 weeks and saving up for certain items.

It's time for a new list..

Here are my two itens I am saving for... if you are rich you can go ahead and buy me them if you wish.

1. Paul Frank; Drawstring Beach Bag

2. I like you

Wonder-ful morning



I am pretty sure I saw Kevin's Dad ( Dan Lauria) from the wonder years, sitting at a bus stop this morning.

Granted, I had not had my coffee yet, I was really tired, and it was from quite far, but it was uncanny how much it looked like him.

No pepper.


*this is not my hand.


When I was little Dr. pepper chapstick was my favorite lip balm. I used it all the time. I think it was because as kids, we were not allowed to drink soda, so that was my only link to the carbonated world, but anyway... Everytime I used the chapstick it made me cough a little and my lips would tingle, therefore I always figured there was actual pepper in Dr. Pepper. Come to find out ( my senior year of high school) that there is not really pepper in the soda. I know what you're thinking..."wow katie, you're silly." But know this, today I found out my dear friend Juli also thought this for a majority of her life.

Here are the ingredients in case you were wondering;

Ingredients:

Carbonated Water
High Fructose Corn Syrup and/or Sugar
Caramel Color
Phosphoric Acid
Artificial and Natural Flavors
Sodium Benzoate (Preservative)
Caffeine

No pepper.

Perfect.

Not to post twice in one minute, but this picture deserves a blog post. Where is he when I am trying to carry up water to my apartment?

This is creepy....

Probably the creepiest thing I have seen in a while.

Hot Mess

I made some popcorn...

It's pretty simple really, take the bag out of the plastic, place in the microwave, press "popcorn" and wait until the beep.



It can't go wrong, can it?


YEP.





Billowing smoke, terrible smells, and no popcorn to munch on.

Boo.
