Welcome to my little piece of the blogosphere. During your visits to my blog you will see postings sometimes about music. I will talk about my favorite artists. I will talk about events and places to go. Since I am currently living at home, I'm North Dallas Homegirl and weblogista (Yes, I've been cracking myself up for 8 years).

Blogging Withdrawal Symptoms, Sunglasses and Confusing Hairstyle
Hi:
Having Blogging Withdrawal symptoms. This includes dreaming of the "Create Post" page on blogger.com and thinking about my next blog post in unlikely places, including CVS and while I am eating a TWIX bar. Phew, I am so glad to be creating this post.
I got a funny look from the Dunkin Donuts girl in the Drive Thru today because I was wearing my Crazy Zebra Striped Sunglasses. Or maybe it was my CONFUSING hairstyle. About sunglasses: Yes, I wear them inside! Yes, I enjoy wearing them inside!!!! And I will continue to wear my sunglasses inside as long as it is still enjoyable for me. Wearing your sunglasses inside is the new Tip of the Day. the other tip is: Try a Confusing Hairstyle.
--Music News: I bought the Lily Allen CD (actually my friend ECKHORT bought it for me), "It's not Me, It's You." Lily Allen is Awesome. I played her last album to death so maybe I will overplay this album also.
--I also bought Alkaline Trio, "Goddamnit" (Can you say that on the internet?), their first album. I haven't listened to all of it yet but so far I like it.
--I like a song by Young Jeezy. I'm not sure of the name but I keep hearing it and I like it. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I had never heard of Young Jeezy before but apparently he is a "Merchant of Cool." From the Defjam.com web site:
"No matter what is being supplied, a hustler is only as good as his word. With Atlanta serving up some of the hottest product in the rap game, native son Young Jeezy stands as one of the most exciting merchants of cool to emerge in years."
The link is: Sorry if the link does not come up but you get the IDEA:
http://www.defjam.com/site/artist_bio.php?artist_id=567
I won a camera today at a Toastmasters event. It is a Delicious camera. I have taken 2 pictures, and it is a film camera (OMG do those still exist?). It's a FUJI. I will add it to my Camera Collection. Now I can BUG people with a film camera, not just my digital camera. Beware, you may be bugged.
I have a really cute new nephew, his name is Atticut Micheal Whitted.
Enough for now.
Go listen to Young Jeezy,
Peace,
Chillax,
Your favorite Chile of the 80s,

poem
Hi all:
here is a poem I just wrote.
Hee, Hee, Hee
Or Srawling Your Dreams Onto the Back of a Shopping List Notepad
By Alice
Unrequited Dreams
Unrequited Lust
Dreams falling into sallow pit of
Squash, bed, ugly neighborhood
Mising someone so much
Their absence is spiky to you
Dreams, Love, Money
Keep Your Feet on the Ground, and Keep Reaching For The Stars
Casey Kasem screwed me over
What is to be
of the College Girl who wanted
to be free
While the rest of the world
said Hee hee hee
What is to be
of Me
Where is your Place
If you do not slatheringly seek Money with Haste
Is it the Nine to Five
that keeps you Alive
or is that Jive
Want to be Free
Want to be Me
Please do not copy.
I turned on the satellite radio (Sirius)to channel 45, hoping to hear "Eminem's Uncut Hip Hop," which I expected to be EMINEM (favorite Detroit rapper)songs 24 / 7. You can imagine my dissapointment when I did not hear EMINEM but a bunch of other artists. The only EMINEM that I heard was short promos by EMINEM. I will still be listening to the station, at least now I know there will not be any songs by EMINEM.

Super Chillsauce shopping at Target, Matching Vests
Dear Loyal Readers,
Snappy blogging in full effect:
I want to give a quick update of my Sunday. Since I am trying to write fast I will just copy from the notebook where I wrote out this blog post:
Super chillsauce shopping with mom:
Target: a madhouse, lots of families shopping. I bought a shirt (they have some nice clothes--but I saw a lot of beach coverups--I don't need one since I don't live on the beach). Target had some good candles for $1. On Sunday everybody (including me) everyone has nothing better to do than go to Target.
Walgreen's: I got some Hot Pockets (2 for $5). You should get some. Then you can use a crisping sleeve. Then you can also say "CRISPING SLEEVE." Pepperoni and 4-meat Hot Pockets are very good.
At church (St. Monica) I dipped my fingers in the Holy Water twice--is this taking too much Holy Water???????????????????????????????????????????? question mark overkill. I should leave some for everybody else.
I also saw a Matching couple--they were in front of me--both had on vests. The man had on a Futuristic, space age-looking vest, and the woman also had on a vest. I did not see their faces, only the Matching Vests. Matchy! Matchy! Matchy! Those are just the facts, ma'am. Just the facts!
Later Kids,
Go and buy an Alkaline Trio album (if you can afford), it will soothe your anxiety in this troubled economy,
xo,
Alice

Snoop dog is at Tom Thumb
Hi,
Yesterday I went to Tom Thumb. My friend Eckhart and I asked for pasta sauce and the guy who helped us looked like Snoop Doggy Dog. I wonder if he is rollin down the street smokin' endo, sippin on gin and juice?? With my mind on my money and my money on my mind.
I needed the alfredo sauce for some meatballs that I made tonight.
When I went to Pei Wei the other night, I ordered fried rice (chicken) and I discovered that with the order, they only give you a large spoon and chopsticks. How am I supposed to know how to use chopsticks?
I have never learned and will have to try some day, but still. Eckhart went to one of the workers and said, "My friend doesn't know how to use chopsticks, can I have a fork?" So I got a fork. The food was delicious. Eckhart offered me the Chopstick Helper ("Fun Chop") but I refused. If I learn, I will learn without the Chopstick Helper, thank you very much. I didn't even know they had those.
I am reading a little bit of "The Four Hour Workweek," by Tim Ferriss ( he is only 30years old). I am going to read it when I go to Barnes and Noble bc it's cheaper than buying it.
Ok, tired and can't think of anything else good to blog about tonight,
Keep Rollin Down the Street Smokin Endo, Sippin on Gin and Juice,
Peace

blogging on cheetos ** W.T.F.**
Loyal Readers:
Doing super chillsauce blogging on Chee-tos.
There will be a brief mourning period for my 2000 Red Neon, since I turned it in when I got a new car yesterday (Mond.) Although many claimed it was orange, it was really red. I had to turn it in when I got the new car, a Ford Focus. It is Vista Blue. Then Ford Focus is nice and it is nice because it has satellite radio. So I'm listening to Classic Vinyl all the time. Just because I like that station. The mourning period for Neon will only be a couple of weeks.
The W.T.F. above does not mean anything. I did have an urge to write W.T.F., and fulfilling that urge was fun.
I went to SPACE studios and gallery today, 2814 Main Street in Deep Ellum (also known as Hal Samples' Gallery, 214-334-4481). I have never been there, but it was super-inspiring. The current installation is by a Hispanic artist from Addison. It was mostly paintings and some of it was odd and over-morbid but I liked it anyway.
After I went to hole-in-the-wall coffee shop where they give you funny plates. I had a decaf latte (yes, that is possible).
i will post more photos on my blog soon.
Peace, xo,
Alice

Try to work "super chillsauce" into your normal everyday conversation. It is your good deed of the day.

I found a new CD World ... Yay!!! and Welcome to the Special 1989 Edition
Here is the homeless guy (James) I see on Preston Rd. and Royal Rd. I'm not sure if the image will appear so I will keep it short. I saw James the other day and asked him why he wasn't at Mockingbird and Greenville, where he usually is, and he said, "I move around."

I found a new CD World. Yes, the mourning period for CD World is over. I went to CD Warehouse, on Beltline and Marsh Lane, today.
CD Warehouse is the new CD World because:
-I liked the decor.
-It's an independent record store
-I need a new CD World.
Why CD Warehouse is worse than CD World:
-They did not have the 2 CDs I wanted. OK, OK, Blue October--a Houston band--does not release its album until March 24. But they did not have a Beastie Boys CD, Paul's Boutique, that is being reissued (See Below!).
-Workers had less metal in their FACES.
I bought a DVD, Vantage Point (with Matthew Fox), for $8.99. It is research for a short story I'm writing. So, watching the movie has a combined purpose--enjoyment and RESEARCH.
BB News:
The Beastie Boys have reissued "Paul's Boutique," their 1989 album.
I did not get it when it first came out but I want to get it now. For more info, go to:
If that does not appear on your lovely screen, go to:
http://www.paulsboutique.beastieboys.com
If you do not like this album, your replacement Beastie Boys album can be License to Ill. I think it is from 1986. I got this when it first came out. It was required listening in the fourth grade.
I am taking a class on being more assertive. It is April 21 and 23, at a local college. When I called to register Friday the guy on the phone said I was taking "the first step to being a more ASSERTIVE WOMAN." ???????????????????????????????????????? I would write WTF but I think the question marks are enough. yes, it is question mark overkill once again.
POP ROCKS make a nice snack if you are looking for a new snack.
Peace,
bbb

Go and buy a Bob Dylan Album.
Hi all,
A black cat crossed my path today. Although I was disturbed, nothing bad or terrible happened. It crossed my path while I was driving in my car and I wanted to run it over but I didn't.
I have a new psychiatrist. His name is Dr. Vobach. I don't know if I should write that, but oh well. He let me take a picture of him the other day.
Enough blabbing for now.
Try to work the words (combined, or separate if you must) "harmonic perturbation" into your normal everyday conversation,
Peace,

Hello I am dissing my bed to blog for you.
Dear Loyal Readers:
I just ate some meatballs from ikea. They were delicious. Wow! How did you do that, you say, at 10:25 on a Sunday night? I bought them from ikea when I went Saturday. With my Fabulous Cooking Skills I simply put them in a bowl, covered them, and put them in the microwave on high for 3 minutes and 30 seconds. Wow, a delicious meal in 3 minutes and 30 seconds. I also ate some carrots just for variety (which I skillfully microwaved). So next time you go to ikea BUY SOME. Yes, I am bucking the trend and writing ikea in lowercase letters. But NDH can get away with it.
Also observed at ikea (Houston) : They should have a sign outside stating that a requirement for entering is that you must be dressed slobbily. Simply an observation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! exclamation mark overkill. I did go in the morning, maybe Houstonians did not have time to dress normally, but still.
I told this guy (maybe in his 40s)in a Michigan sweatshirt that I liked his sweatshirt and that I went to school there and he smiled politely.
My last ikea observation: Who could use that many containers and laundry baskets?????????????????????????????????????????????????????? question mark overkill.
I was at church today (St. Monica's in Dallas). There is a portion where you are supposed to pray for a bunch of different people (the sick, the president, and more). Then the reader says, "Now let us pray for our own Special Needs." Well, I was not done praying for my Special Needs when she said, "AMEN." That is not fair.
I really like a song I heard last night, I just discovered it is by Cracker. It's old, but I sitll like it. Lyrics are: "Being with you girl, like being Low, Hey, Hey, Hey, like being stoned." If you do get a chance, you should go to the record store and buy it. In fact, buy it immediately.
Have to go be church-y and pray for my Special Needs.
