Dog days of Summer...

So I have a ten year old red heeler and for the most part he is a pretty laid back old man. I mean, come on, in dog years he is 70 years old. I really feel like I should have already gotten him one of those wheelchairs for dogs, you know the ones where their back legs dangle and there are wheels that act as their legs. Yeah I am cruel. But, I have never had a problem with him chewing on something or making a mess inside. But apparently this past Monday Radar (my dog) was pissed about something. I came home to find the blinds in my kitchen, well a bit of a mess.

Now, if I like sunshine on the floor but not the rest of the room, then these blinds will work out REAL well. But since I am someone who needs a full set of blinds, these aren't really going to cut it. But Radar was proud of himself. I mean I walked in the front door and he was ready to show me what he did. "Dad!!! Come here! You have got to see what I did!" was practically coming from his eyes. So when I saw the window, and he saw my face, I have to say he was less than happy with my reaction. I think, "What the Hell??" and "Adoption at the pound" came out of my mouth, and he may not speak english, but I think it translated really well into dog barks. But I cleaned the mess up and we went outside and played with the ball until he could not play any longer. I mean I am going to get any extra energy out of him so this does not happen again.

Well Tuesday rolls around and I was thinking, I did a great thing taking him out and wasting that energy. Funny thing is Radar was thinking something different. I think for him Tuesday stood for two blinds. When I got home that day, he had taken out the two sets of blinds in the living room of my place. So, yeah I now have an apartment that my neighbors think Freddy Krueger visited in a bad 1990's scary movie. There is nothing like your 70 year old dog year dog redecorating your apartment. So bright and filled with sun light

I am all about being green, but there is a limit.

So when it comes to being green, I am all about recycling and keeping my carbon foot print as low as possible. This being said, I was on the Eastside of Austin this past weekend and they took green to a whole new level.

As you can see, in the photo to the right instead of allowing you to flush the urinal they just filled it with ice. To, I am assuming to melt and wash away the nasty?? Not sure, but I can tell you how unsanitary this is. I steered away for this thing all night long, but others were coming out talking about back splash and things of that nature.

I love you hipsters on the Eastside, but I am going to just say that running water has been around for years and I really think we should start using it. I don't know if this works in the summer when it is warmer and the ice melts faster, but in the winter its cold in there and they ice is just chillin with pee in it. EW EW EW. Maybe up the price of the drinks by a quarter and pay to have that running water. ;)

Time to eat........

So recently, I went for a run, and then after the run I took my car in to get an oil change. Usually I would have gone home and changed, but I was near the automotive place and thought it best to go ahead and get it taken care of. So I am in my running clothes, short shorts and all.....I know, I know not cute but hey you can't win them all.

So, while my oil is being changed I decided to walk around the store and grab a few things for the house. Now I had forgotten that I was dressed to impress out on the trail, but not in public. So I am checking out and a rather large lady is behind me in line. I politely smile and nod at her and in no time flat the lady says with a cheeseburger in her thoughts, "Oh just thinking about you working out makes me hungry."

REALLY?!?!?!?! Who says that?? Thinking about you working out makes me hungry? I almost shit myself. I didn't have words to reply, I just looked at her in disgust and walked away. I realized then that the reason she is so fat is because when others are working out and staying fit, she is eating her way through their work out.... Where is Richard Simmons when you need him?? Hell where is Jenny Craig? I would say Weight Watchers, but believe me.....she can see her weight and she is not doing anything about it.

So what do I have to say about all this?? I have a warning for you all.....don't wear your workout clothes in to public places that don't have others wearing the work out attire. Reason being, you could be the reason Americans are getting so fat.

Now, eat a Tic Tac and be happy with that as your meal.

Can you say Mc Clubbin'?

Seriously, at what point in life do you forget about what you are wearing?? Actually, when do you forget that you are in public in something that should have never even been sold to you, or anyone for that matter?

First we will start with the other people in the room. Ok?! The man to the right, under the Mc Clubin' sign, is laughing. I am sure it is not the conversation he is having with the girl at the table with him. Well, unless that conversation has something to do with how hideous this outfit is..... I am just sayin! Now, look at her child, yes i know i said child. I mean her daughter won't even look at her. She is eating her fries and staring at the floor. I mean if my mother would have ever shown up in something like this I would have called child protective services myself and reported the abuse I was getting from other children due to my mothers bad taste.

Now, lets just talk about Ms. Thang herself. One who wears a dress like this anymore?? I am talking about a strapless short tacky dress?? That pattern is on one of my grandmothers MooMoo's!!! Also, where is the rest of this damn dress?? I am not sure how big the picture is going to come out on the blog and exactly how much you can see. But when I pull it up on my comptuer, INAPPROPRIATE!!! There are butt cheeks hanging out. Let me tell you something, I don't wanna see Heidi Klum's cheeks hanging out, much less this hooker with a baby's butt cheeks. And if you could see the hooker shoes, oh, you can just imagine.

So I know I have said this before, but does she not have family that sees her getting ready and then walking out the door?? If anyone in my family attempted to walk out the door in something like this, I would have bitch slapped them and then showed them where to go and change. And I dare the person in my family to come back out in something that wasn't appropriate!!!

So I guess what I am saying is, don't get caught wearing something like this around me or you will get blogged. But seriously, you don't need to be wearing something like that with a child or outside of a hooker club.

R.I.P. Smooth Criminal

I have to say that I am going to miss the King of Pop. Granted, we haven't really seen him in a while, but it was those little out of nowhere crazy stunts that just warmed my heart.

I mean really, what makes your life look normal, wait I know, Michael holding "his" toddler over the edge of some hotel balcony.

Moving on from that, MJ gave us a lot in the music world that you just won't get again. His music videos alone set a standard that most artists will never come close to comparing. I mean, I remember the first time I saw the Thriller video, and I forgot I was watching a music video and thought of it more as a movie. I remember how much of a bad ass I thought MJ was when Beat It came out, and how it made me love his music even more. Then in a time when music videos were slowly starting to go out of date on tv, (ie..Mtv started showing tv shows more than videos) he still came out with great stuff like Black or White and Remember the Time. And paired up with is sister for Scream, which was just amazing.

Now, I know alot of people are wondering why we are making such a big deal over him, with all the alligations of him molesting children. Well, first of all he was aquitted and if it had been some random Joe that was aquitted no one would have said a thing but because he was famous we hold onto it. And two without him, music today would not be the same.

So I say, Michael RIP and I hope you are making the after life a little more rocking! Hey call up Elvis and you two put on a really good concert up there. And to all of those people still talking about the pedifile issues, how about suing the parents for allowing the kids to go over to someones house that was accused of something like that.....I mean really.

Blame it on the Rain!!!!!!

Who misses these two??? Can I get a camera on me while I raise my hand and cry all at the same time????

I mean really. There was a message and some sweet ass dance moves. Not to mention that hair!!!!

I've been searching high, I've been searching low trying to find all the videos from these two just to fill the void. I am sooo glad that youtube has not forgotten their number. They have all the greats. Yeah, that's right I just pulled a infomercial move, but it had to be done.

And really who doesn't lip sync these days? Do I need to bring up Ashley Simpson's incident on SNL? I don't think I do. These guys were great and I wanted more. Well I wish I could get more, one of them has passed and the other is a great porn star, JOKING!! I don't know where the other is but really I wish they would have had more than just a few songs before being outed to the world.

So I am Blaming it on the Rain for the two of them not finishing a great thing....and just to show how much I am crying over it, I have uploaded a picture of me below crying my eyes out.

Now they have just gone to far......

Ok, you know that Abercrombie, Hollister and Ruehl have for a long time, been right there on the edge of all of their photos being very homoerotic. And I have to say that I have never complained once about it, either. I mean really, you should have your gay card revoked if you complain about a lot of hot, half clothed men touching each other in photos...haha.

But today when the female version of me (Kristin), and myself were out shopping at the Domain, we happen to stumble upon this photo at Ruehl. I mean really. Can you make this more obvious about what you are suggesting? For the love. I just lost it when I walked in the door.

I really think that all of the art directors and advertising directors for this company are just in their offices having way to much fun with all this soft core porn. Though, I do have to say that I would love to have their jobs. I would have no problem looking at these boys all day. No ma'am, no sir.

If this man walked in my front door, I can tell you I wouldn't kick him out. But I would totally give him a hot dog.............(wink, wink)
