You're gonna love his nuts

Sometimes I fall in love with infomercial items. The Slap Chop is my current As Seen On TV obsession. Halloween night, BFF and I were getting ready and we stumbled on the Slap Chop remix.

Scary Movies

I don't love em, but I don't hate em.

I was thinking about my favorite scary movies so I thought I'd list em here in no particular order.
Whatever Happened to Baby Jane
Carrie
In the Mouth of Madness
It
The Omen
Children of the Corn
Poltergeist
Ringu
Pan's Labrynth -- does this count as a scary movie?

And 2 scary movies that are too scary for me to ever watch again:
The Exorcist
The Shining

I can't handle those two...way to scary for me to watch again.

Happy Halloween! What are you dressing up as? Me? Tonight Little Edie Beale. Tomorrow Nerd Hello Kitty. I love Halloween!

What are your favorite scary movies?

Why

is it that you always want the jerk to call you but instead its the super sweet guy with no tattoos that you met this weekend that calls?

I am trying something new out. A nice guy. Imagine that.

I always see cute, nerdy boys in movies and tv and think -- HOW CUTE, I love that boy. Then in real life, I fall for fucked up junkies, skinheads and punks.

Ughhhhh...must.break.old.habits.

Warehouse sale booty!

Pig ring? Silver lace ups? Crazy gold bird hat?

Yes, please.

Let's back track a bit

Day 2 pm, originally uploaded by lawdymizzclawdy.

So how does a little lady like me get a gnarly black eye like this, you ask? One word.
Motorhead.
Ok rewind the clock about 2 weeks...Louisville invited me to go see Motorhead. This was before the whole "I've got a date" text, of course. So, me, him, creepy friend, metal friend and metal friend's neighbor all drive up in my car to downtown LA.
We get there, I'm already pretty drunk. We walk in all together and head straight for the bar. Louisville buys me a drink and when the 2nd band starts, he disappears into the pit. Now let me just say this...I have NO problems with this. I've lived half of my life at shows where my date leaves me to go into the pit. I'm used to it. But, this time, the creepy friend stays with me. Whatever dude, i don't need a babysitter. So, he ends up hanging out with me the entire time. Every once in a while Louisville shows back up to check on me or whatever. At one point, creepy friend (who started out nice) asked me for my number. I think, ok he's always at parties I go to and he's a friend I guess. My friends have my phone number- SIDENOTE: I am an idiot when it comes to someone trying to hook up with me. I never realize it til its too late -- That even happened with Louisville. My BFF can attest to this. Well, creepy friend is also friends with a bunch of my friends so I'm all sure...and as soon as the last digit of my phone number comes out of my mouth I realize what is happening. SHIT! I then try to back track and be like oh I don't like talking on the phone. I tell a story about a boy I met that kept texting me and that it was annoying, etc. Anything to get my point across. THEN, he says to me "I asked Louisville if I could get your number and hang out with you and he said yeah" WTF???? Ok I was PISSED.
The next band starts and we go back inside. I am FUMING. So, its a rockabilly band and I'm all dancing then I realize creepy behind me is totally rubbing my shoulders and trying to kiss me. EEEK! I only have two modes when it comes to boys...super nice or super bitch. I don't want to be a bitch because he's a friend of friends and I'm going to for sure have to see him around and shows and parties. So, I start dancing all crazy with my arms flailing around so that he has to back the fuck off. Well, it worked, thank god!
Motorhead comes on and I have a grand ol time -- Lemmy is amazing!
The minute they stop I make a beeline for the floor to find Louisville. I instantly see him because he is so tall. He comes up to me and I totally unleashed..."What the fuck is up with your creepy friends molesting me??? Tell them to keep the fuck off me!" Mini backstory: Another friend of his is in the habit of trying to make out with me when he's drunk. I realized a few days later that creepy was prob RIGHT behind me when i yelled that and I kinda felt bad. Kinda. So Louisville grabs my hand and we start walking out.

Here's where the black eye comes in:
We're walking thru the bar area and we drop hands...then guess whose foot slips out from under her and falls face first onto the floor?

Yeah, me.

I hit the floor, I totally smack my brow bone and think, yep that's a black eye. I remember 2 dudes coming up and asking me if i was ok...I say yep and get up so quickly and don't even look around. I just hightailed it outta there.
I catch up with Louisville and we're walking out together trying to find the rest of his friends. He is holding my hand and I say hold on -- pull over for a second...Then I ask him about what creepy said. He says: I didn't say that...Why would I say that? Not that it matters now, but I don't really believe him. Whatev.
We get in the car. Louisville is driving my car, I'm riding shotgun with the rest of the boys in the back. Metal dude and Louisville are talking about the show and I am pissed the whole way home. We get back to Louisville's car and he swears up and down that he didn't say that and says he will talk to creepy about it. All I can think of is that I creepy my number and that could look bad.
I get home, pass out and wake up to this.
Lovely.

Wanna see more pics of this hideous thing I call my eye? Check out my flickr set.

Shout out on Mr. X stitch!

How cool is this?

I haven't stitched anything in soooo long, I feel like I don't deserve to be on the site! Mending my BFF's shirts and making my fat pants into skinny pants doesn't count does it?

Actually, the other day I got fed up with myself and was like -- I need to make something!! So I started knitting myself a new hat. Of course, its been so long since I knitted I had to take it apart once but now I'm back on track! It feels good to have a project.

Speaking of hats!! I went to another warehouse sale yesterday and SCORED on hats and hair accessories! I will try and take pics this weekend and get them up here. Let's just say I have a new black hat with a gold glitter bird on it...yeah I know, now you GOTTA see it!
