The weekend of raspberry mojitos.

Yummy, yummy, in my tummy.

Yummy, yummy, in my tummy.

I think I have finally found my signature drink!!! I love mojitos, especially raspberry mojitos… They are always so refreshing and I don’t feel like I’m getting totally trashed. After this weekend, I realised I’ve ordered quite a few of them whenever I go out and always crave either this… or a Bloody Mary. I will make it my mission to find the best raspberry mojito in California. So far, I’ve tasted and documented the best raspberry mojito at WISH in the SOMA neighborhood of San Francisco.

My friends and I went to NOLA in Downtown Palo Alto, and it was delicious! You can read my rather poorly written review at yelp.com, if you wish (I blame the alcohol and sleep-deprivaiton). Everything was great — the drinks, the food, the ambiance, the people — and I would love to go there again! The bar gave my friend a complimentary blowjob shot, but we had a little accident, and I went through the rest of the night with a stained tank top. Sadness!

Wearing:

two-year-old Rubbish military jacket, two-year-old Express beads, various F21 rings, BDG tank, F21 high-waist pinstripe shorts, ripped (but you can’t tell) thigh-highs from Nordy’s, two-year-old Steve Madden boots. I am quite happy that I can still wear stuff from two years ago and still feel good about it. Some shit never goes out of style!

I haven’t gotten around to taking post-worthy pictures of the last two outfits I wore out, but whatever — I don’t really care. Maybe I’ll just wear them again. There’s nothing wrong with wearing the same outfit twice, so long as there is no photographic proof of it!!! Well, good photographic proof. I’m sure there are pictures of me in those outfits, but I just don’t want to acknowledge that they exist. (I also should think about adding some sort of lightbox-ish thing to this, what with all of these photos. One day, I will become unlazy and decide which JS Library I will use. I will also become more motivated and start writing about webdev things. One day.)

And a final note:

I’ve added my blog to BlogLovin’ to make it easier for some of the folks out in Interwebz-Land to find me! Please add and follow me! Thanks!

A successful weekend.

No, you aren't what I really wanted.

The aubergine tights arrived. And brown. The brown boots and Jessica Simpson pumps are going back to the store.

They were poor excuses for what I really wanted, which is a dark brown heeled ANKLE bootie and a black NON-patent leather peep-toe ankle bootie. Not a pump.

I hate it when I lie to myself when I go shopping. I say to myself, “Yes, Patricia, you will find something in your closet to wear with these. They are adorable!” And then I go home, only to crush all hopes and dreams for these new items and to realize that I was fooling myself.

A… beginning, of sorts.

No, okay I lied. This isn’t a catharsis. This is just the über ultimate checklist of doom … I mean, of goals. So, let’s get to it.

Starting NOW, I plan to:

  • Get to work before 9:30am. HA!
  • Do cardio at least 3 out of 5 working days, immediately following work.
  • The days I do not do cardio, I will do some simple toning exercises and weights at home. While watching The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.
  • WAFFLES. OHMAHGADD.
  • Master some new language by May 2009.
  • Serious apartment search COMMENCE!
  • Savings account commence!

And, I am calling it a night. Go away.

You're such a tease!

Yes, I can be. It’s nearly 2:00am and there is no way in hell I am writing something coherent right now.

So, I will leave you with a chat that took place some time this year:

me: hey do you think i;d type any better if my keyboard config were different?
me: i think my keyboard configuration would have to be pretty liquid
caleb: im thinking if u popped all ur keys out
caleb: and replaced them with cheezits
caleb: u might get comparable results
me: HHAHAAA
me: i hate you
