Messiest Person Alive is also a Compulsive Gambler

Before my parents left for their trip, my mom gave me some cash to 'buy groceries' , even though I probably make more money than them . I guess they somehow still view us as helpless little babies who will starve without their aid. So anyway, being the good and honest child, I have been using the money to buy some groceries while conserving the rest to give back to them on their return. Little did I know that they ALSO gave Messiest Person Alive money as well. What did he do with it? Well, since he's a teacher and they were on strike for the past 2 weeks, he would wake up at 530 am to go strike for 3 hours, then head to River Rock and play poker for 8 hours straight. Okaaaaay (banging head against wall..bang, bang, bang...)

Messiest Person Alive Makes Soup

I went out for dinner yesterday so my bro had to make his own dinner. What is he going to do? Well, a can of campbell's soup doesn't look so bad when one's lazy. Ok, so I got home and what did I find? Again, cupboards and drawers open, sink filled with dirty pans and dishes from elaborate meal (sarcasm fully intended), can-opener on countertop, actual can not in garbage or recyle bin but on table, and the kicker, stove was still ON. Bloody hell.....

Lord, help me please..

Hear my desperate cry for help? Sob...

I had like 10 mins left on my lunch and yet I still had to run down to get my shopping fix. I found this gorgeous velveteen jacket on ebay that I want to win but these mofos out there keep bidding up the price (from like 26.99 to 31.99...HEY! it's a lot when I'm not supposed to be shopping) and combined with shipping, it will end up over 50 bucks. So I was getting choked and I remember finding a nice fitting used velveteen blazer at Mintage for 34 bucks so I had to see if they had more. Of course, the one I liked is gone and the others are not to my liking. Agggh!

P.S. Tee hee. I bought 2 accessories last friday. I'll post pics of them up soon.

I Live with the Messiest Person Alive

...or at least it seems like it. Our parents have left for a nice long vacation away from us (they went back to the motherland) and have left us to fend for ourselves. Me, being capable strong female who can cook, is doing ok. Brother, who is lazy and messy is wrecking havoc over house. Ok, so here is how it goes ~ after a long fasting period, brother goes and decides that hunger is bad and makes himself a sandwich. Mess left behind is similar to destruction caused by an small sized earthquake...cupboard doors left wide open, knife, bowl, can opener and major tuna chunks in the sink, empty tuna can causing major stink sitting on countertop, mayonnaise left rotting outside of fridge, breadcrumb trail left for Hansel and Gretel leads from sink to table, dirty dishes left on coffee table alongside yesterday's dirty dishes....ok like seriously..WTF????
Poor future sister-in-law.....

Calling All Chicks...
Currently I'm trying out a new show called Related. It's about 4 girls who are siblings who are, of course, gorgeous, have killer wardrobes, know cute boys and, unfortunately, are also a little bit spazzy. I think it's supposed to make them funny, but they just end up being annoying. This show is on the verge of being cancelled, but I feel that it has potential.

There is this one storyline that is somehow affecting me. It involves the breakup of one of the sisters and her boyfriend after six years of being together. The reason? It just seems that the guy has 'fallen out of love" with her. What can she do in that situation? How hard is it to see the person you love tell you that he wants to break up with you but that he'll always love you? What goes wrong? or is it just something that just happens? To me, it's just so heartbreaking.
I've always thought it was weird that it only takes a few days for a couple who at one time almost spent every day with each other, to just disappear from each other's lives. But then again, maybe it's because it's just too hard to keep seeing one another. Ok, enough of my fairy-tale-believing-induced blurb...

Anyway, we are seriously lacking some good chick TV since the end of Sex and the City. This show has been reviewed (negatively) as a mish-mash of SATC, Friends, Felicity and Gilmore Girls. I don't know about you, but I loved all those shows...I think it's main slot is on Wednesdays against Lost (talk about suicide), but somehow I catch it on Mondays.

In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni

So I'm just sitting here chillin' on a Sunday night watching my TV and surfing the net for some Lost info when I stumbled upon this phrase. It roughly translates to "we enter the circle after dark and are consumed by fire". Now what does this have to do with Lost? Long story...just go search the message boards. Anyway, there is something unusual about that phrase that caught my attention. Yes, I'm really nerdy :P
Can you see what it is? Hints:

Kung Fu, HAI-YA!

Ok all you non-believers out there, I haven't bought anything significant since my previous post. What does that mean, I hear you ask...well..it means that I don't consider accessories a part of the deal. I AM NOT CHEATING! :P I make the rules and I emphasize that all is fair and good.
I went shopping with Jooney on Friday and all I got was a scarf and a pair of tights! Seeeeeeeeee, I was good...
(Oh and I picked up my purse from Holt but this doesn't count since I decided to buy it before I stopped shopping ;) )

Plus, I'm currently preoccupied with all my new toys anyway. I finally got my Nano in the mail. Yay! It's so tiny and DAMN, it scratches so easily. Right now it's being protected by kleenex. Yeah, yeah, yeah I hear ya. But the Nano cases aren't available here yet...

And YAY! I got my purse, hee, hee, hee. And I already got a compliment on it as some chick told me she really liked it. Hey give me a break, I need some justification :P

So today I decided to sport my new Nano, my new purse and my new shoes and I was thinking hmmm... if any asswipe decides to mug me today that I'd have to get all Kung Fu on him or her. (And so what if all the Kung Fu that I know I've learned from Tae-Bo? Get between a chick and her beloved accessories and see wrath you've never seen before...)

No More Shopping for Me!!

That's it! I've put my foot down...no more shopping for me. I need to know I can stop the addiction...that I'm stronger than that beautiful, perfect, fits-like-it's-made-for-me (enter clothing item here) hanging in the boutique, calling out my name and saying "Buy Me, Buy Me, I was made for you.."
Yes, I am woman, hear me roar..(um, prrr)?
It doesn't matter that I still have something (er, things) being shipped to me as we speak, nor the fact that I may be heading to the outlets this long weekend. That is not important. That fact is at this very moment I HAVE decided that my affair with the credit card is stopping right now (or at least til Christmas Eve/Boxing Day, heh heh). (Does trying to get opening night Canuck tickets count? Anywayz...)
I have spoken and this will be...I hope...
