i happened upon the billboard music awards last night at just the right time. dave grohl and triumph the insult comic dog up at the mic cracking some major jokes. it was harsh. it was great. making fun of everyone from paris hilton to britney to ryan seacrest to michael jackson to madonna to the american idol kids. pure genius. no holds barred insults. spectacular. and it went on and on and on and on. look for outtakes of the jokes in the quote of the day section on the site over the next few days. it renewed my faith in awards shows. ok, not really. we changed the channel as soon as it was over. but for 5 minutes it was great!

so yea, my money is all spent. well, not all, but a good deal of it. 150ish at the salon yesterday (cut color highlight shampoo conditioner and holiday sized tip for my stylist). 50 bucks at the gap on what will hopefully be the best pair of black pants in the universe, 30 at american eagle for a pair of jeans that isnt too long on me, 10(on sale from 40) at parisian on a black shirt (like i really needed another black shirt they say!) 12 on the postal service album at best buy, and 20 (on sale from 50)on a kick ass pair of really cool blue shoes. i also purchased about 40 worth of xmas presents. thats about 310. easy come easy go.
i like shopping. i really like shopping. and theres nothing like paying cash for your purchases. after what feels like forever of charging EVERYTHING, it feels great to pay in cash. i want to be rich. i dont want to own 50 pairs of jeans or 100 pair of shoes, i dont want to spend 1500 dollars on a purse or pair of shoes, but it would be nice to have the option. wouldnt it?
they say money doesnt buy happiness, but my hair looks great (it always does for the first couple days after the salon visit), and my jeans arent three feet too long and my ass looks pretty good in my new black pants (if i do say so myself). id say im pretty happy at least in some part due to the spendage of the poker winnings. not that i wasnt happy before, but its definitely been kicked up a notch in the last 2 days.
man i sound like a spoiled bratty girly girl.(or a fabulously fashionable gay man) i swear, im not. really. except for the whole liking to shop thing. and the shoes. i have a pretty big weakness for the shoes.
theres nothing more fun than imaging what you would do with your money if you won the lottery. and i think what you could do for others would be so much better than what you could do for yourself. but it would fun. maybe i should go out and get a lottery ticket. a couple of them. or at least i could play some more poker and win some more money. anyone interested?

so i had a good weekend. good weekend. spent saturday in ann arbor shopping and eating yummy food. urban outfitters is a great store. a little pricey, but a great store anyhow. why there isnt one in the detroit metro area is beyond me. of course you could order from the website or the catalog, but id much rather actually shop there. and after the shopping and eating was the poker. we went to the home of co-worker terri's and her husbands house right outside of ann arbor. the cast of characters was me, chris, albert (co-worker), terri, her husband ron, and terris friend julie. 6 of us. long story short, i was the BIG winner of the night, taking home somewhere around 400 bucks. me. a poker player. who knew. at one point i had to risk losing 240 in order to win that much, but obviously it worked out in my favor. when it came down to risking that amount of money, i almost hyperventilated, peed my pants and passed out at the same time. but i didnt, and i won, and now i have all this money. ive got more cash on me now than i have ever before in my life. feels pretty good. but poor chris, its mostly his money, and he still owes me a hundred and forty on top of it.
so i went out shopping a little today, mostly christmas presents, , but i did splurge and got myself some new unmentionables, so i cant mention them here, and 1 new cd. i woulda got more, except i was at best buy and their prices are ridiculous, so i just got one that was somewhat reasonably priced. its the postal service album. feat. ben gibbard from death cab for cutie. love it already.
more later....must go to don pablos for buy one get one free fajitas with chris. my treat of course.

ha! i was just reading over the entry from thanksgiving. and i came upon this sentence " I did go out last night to a couple of bars in prenatal, and did have a couple of drinks (2 and a half to be exact) and I also had a mini-Greek salad at comas to top off the night. " Anyone see a problem with this here sentence. Damned evil spell checker. also, i did not have a mini greek salad at comas, rather COMOS.
