I went to a cool restaurant last night, Buzz Brew. Its on 75 between Lemmon Ave. and Fitzhugh St. (not sure if Fitzhugh is a Street but oh well). It has fun decor and is a fun place for breakfast or lunch, or just to hang out. Don't have the chicken fajitas, but other than that its good. Supposedly it is owned by the same guy who owns Cafe Brazil. Anyway I had fun.
Talkin' more about Coldplay: I really like #7, Viva La Vida, along with #4, "42". In Viva la Vida, Chris Martin sings about when he ruled the world, and its really cool. I could go on and on, but you should hear it for yourself. It has a mystical sound. Just go and buy the group of ditties, durnit. I've been listening to the CD before I go to bed. (yes, over and over).
V. excited about Alkaline Trio July 22. But I still need someone to go with.
I leave you with this thought, gentle readers (hopefully its plural, ha ha): Life is Not a Bowl of Cherries, but can't I just have more cherries? (don't copy this please).
peace out,

*Puke-ini Sisters*
hello faithful readers:
I have been listening to The Rise and Fall of Ruby Woo, by the Puppini Sisters--actually I only listened to a couple of songs before the CD started skipping. so lame.
But there is a very good cover on there of Walk Like an Egyptian. You should all buy it. NOw. I mean now, now, now. Now. Besides I like their name. Their name kind of reminds me of puke (puke-ini sisters), but I like it anyway. It makes me wonder, how does one become a Puppini sister? Are they really sisters? I am perplexed by the Puppini sisters. Notice the alliteration.
I have been listening more to Coldplay, and I like track 4, "42." I have been listening to it over and over. Mostly in my car. As you have noticed, I drive a lot.
Enough wednesday blogging,
Get Low.
Go and buy The Puppini Sisters.
chillax,
BBB

shorty got low
I'm going to start out this blog by telling you, devoted readers, that you should all listen to or buy the single "Low" by Flo-Ri-Da featuring T-Payne. The album is not out yet, so unfortunately you will have to buy the single right now. On the cover for the single, Flo-Ri-Da has a very LARGE tattoo, but you will have to buy the single to see what I mean. Yesterday I was stuck in nightmarish traffic and I blasted Low and it made my experience a little more pleasant. I'm going to look up the lyrics because I'm not sure if he's saying "boots with the spurs" or "boots with the fur" in the song. But I think it's "boots with the fur."
The lead singer from Tripping Daisy died in my apartment, on Oct. 28, 1999, from an overdose. EDG (read previous blog if you do not know what this means) is not creeped out by this, in fact she finds it interesting in a gory sort of way. I'm claiming it as my little piece of rock history. Wonder if anything eerie will happen on Oct. 28?? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???
On a final note, you all must buy the new Coldplay album, called Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends (don't know why they titled it that because that is not QUITE an accurate translation--maybe Chris Martin is trying to confuse us). I haven't listened to it enough to have a favorite song yet--but it still kicks ass. i have also been listening to Coldplay's last album at home a lot recently.
I heart Coldplay.

happy father's day
happy father's day to anyone reading this...
bbb is back. I am no longer North Dallas HOmegirl, I'm an East Dallas girl now. I moved to a new apartment, in the Munger Place area. I'm digging it.
Now to get a little toasty:
I joined the Toastmasters back in March. The group I joined is the Executive Toastmasters, they meet in Addison at the IHOP at 7 a.m. Wednesday mornings (its early, I know). They are a great group, anyone who wants to improve their public speaking should join. If you're not in Dallas, look for one in your area. They have them everywhere. NDH/EDG even spoke about this blog at one of the meetings. toastmasters rocks.
okay, gotta make this short--I'm diggin' Amy Winehouses'album, Back to Black. (Ok, I know it came out like a year ago or something, but who cares?) I esp. like track 2, You Know I'm No Good. Good to jam to in the car, as I have been doing.
I also have been doing some work for US Weekly, stalking Tony and Jessica. they are very stealthy.
Bow down to Amy winehouse and the strawberry shortcake ice creams (not sure who makes them) from 7-11.
And bow down to 102.1 The Edge bc I won tickets to see the Alkaline Trio at the House of Blues July 22,

bbb is back...
bbb is back... did y'all miss me? I know I have not blogged since 2007 but I'm still here. I have been in apartment-hunting land and also job-seeking land. Bbb went to the Juanes concert Friday night (at the AAC-American Airlines Center), and here is my quick summary: Juanes came out singing A Dios Le Pido, his hit from a few years back. His hair was short and I had sort of a good view of him. He also played some newer songs, such as Gotas de Agua Dulce and Me Enamora. The place was packed and Juanes rocked. His voice sounds the same in person, strong and clear. As far as my date, words cannot describe how horrible it was. Lets leave it at that. LOSER.
I will cap this blog posting, my friends, by telling you that I'm, like, totally bipolar. (Did you ever see that ad for a reality show on Lifetime about cancer patients where the girl goes, "I, like, totally have cancer"? Well I just wanted to sound like her.) Bipolar-ness affects everyone differently but for me it just means a lot of racing thoughts. When you see the girl in the abilify commercials you can think of me. I'm taking medication for it. It's like, totally not fun but that's ok. Maybe I can write a book one day and make millions.
You must try the new Pike's Peak roast at Starbucks. I tried it yesterday (decaf, bc I'm such a wimp).

post turkey day rants
y'all:
Friday moanin' here:
everyone who reads this, you should check out: www.myspace.com/fizzydinopop.(not sure how to insert a link) A v. good band. They are from Denton, and this guy from the band played some of his music for me and it was really good. It's labeled as punk/pop but I thought it was more like cool electronic music.
I keep hearing the song "Bust A Move" on the radio, maybe this is because I am always listening to 107.5 and they seem to have it on their regular playlist, but this is beside the point. why do I keep hearing it??? Maybe God is trying to tell me to Bust A Move. If it improved NDH's love life then that would be a good thing. One time I was even dancing in my car to Bust a move.
the other day I was in Starbucks and I saw a girl dressed in a clown-like dress. no, really like she was a professional clown, I'm not just saying it was a clown-like dress. interesting attire.
Oh, if you go to 7-11 you should try the "Naked" smoothies... they are really good; been meaning to write this for a while. I tried one with a pineapple/citrus flavor, I can't remember exactly which flavor it was.

tragic day--its the demise of kharma
blogger friends:
it is a tragic day, bc Kharma cafe is closing. It is going to close on Halloween (scaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaary!) and be replaced by an ugly bookstore. So if you live in Denton no more coffees, etc. etc. People wrote ironic comments all over the walls and I loved reading them.
its truly a tragic day. going to go mourn,
b.b.b.

Sewing is Fun
hi yall,
blogging brunette bombshell did not leave you. I've just been busy.
Monday moanin' here: when I was younger and I used to read the Detroit Free Press there was a columnist (Bob Talbert) who always used to use the term "Monday moanin'" when he wrote a column on Monday (duh). So here's the Monday moanin': The other day I was in Kharma Cafe, a cool coffee shop in Denton known for its tight jeans and ironic outfits, and I commented to the boy working there, who had a black hat, glasses and a red bandanna up to his eyeballs (which he took off) that I liked his pants.
"Thanks, I spent a lot of time on them," he commented about the flowery and silky slacks.
Impressed that he made them himself, I told him that I couldn't sew, to which he just gave me a look that said, "poor you."
Speaking of MIA, who (whom?) I blogged about last time, she will be in my stomping grounds to sign autographs--at Good Records. She'll be there Sun. Nov. 4 at 4 p.m. NDH plans to attend. Later she'll do a show at the House of Blues.
going to go eat now, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase post some comments if you read this.
