You overdue Sugar!



Best holiday of the year is here and my costume is almost all the assembled! Sexy Librarian! I did a google search on costumes and quite frankly think the second pic is bullshit! Has anyone ever heard that less is more and a little mystery is good??? The first pic is more my style and what I will be wearing Saturday! Also going to have a NO. 2 pencil in my bun, a few books tied up with a belt and a overdue stamp!

Bloody Hell

Wentworth didn't join the cast of Law & Order, it was just a guest appearance (that I already missed). Oh well, the Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away....

You got chocolate in my peanut butter!!!

Whoohoo! Don't you love it when two of your favorite things mix together??? I just found out today that Wentworth Miller has joined the cast of Law & Order SVU!

I've been in one of my phases where I don't watch TV and thought I really wouldn't until Lost comes back on. Well, not totally true, I turn on HGTV and can probably remodel your home but other than that, I have no clue whats out there. This totally gives me a reason to come back and also start catching up on some other shows like Nip/Tuck,Cougar Town and True Blood.

I've only ever seen Wentworth Miller on Prison Break and I am hoping he is believable in another role cos even though he is cute, it sucks when a cute guy is a one trick pony.

V

I loved loved loved this movie so this is awesome.


'V for Vendetta' teen faces disorderly charge
AP


AYER, Mass. – Police said an 18-year-old man faces a charge of disorderly conduct for donning a mask like in the movie "V for Vendetta" to terrorize residents of central Massachusetts towns of Ayer and Groton.

The Sentinel and Enterprise of Fitchburg reported Friday that the "V" sightings began Sept. 30 when a group of teenagers began wearing the masks to scare one another.

But one teen got carried away and began peering into residents' windows. Groton police assisted in the probe following a similar report from Shaw's supermarket.

Police did not identify the main suspect they said was not arrested but will face a charge of disorderly conduct for scaring and alarming his neighbors.

"V for Vendetta" was adapted from a graphic novel about a masked freedom fighter battling British fascism in the near future.

Its that time of year!

You know what would be nice at this time of night? Being able to sleep.

I have to get up in less than 6 hours to go take a government test. I would say I am busy studying but my brain is full and shit is just falling out of it...oh well. I am so psyched for whats after school. Tailgating and my first roller derby! Went and saw Whip It on Monday to get a better understanding of the game. Am ready to see those chicks kick each others ass!

May as well throw in an update:

Z'Tejas: Have been here for drinks and before but never for food. Went for a late lunch before the movie and while it was ok, was not the yumminess I expected. Did i spell that correctly???

Dog & Duck Pub: Going back soon because there are so many beers to choose from! It had a great atmosphere and the bartender really knew his beers and was very helpful in making a selection.

Back again so quickly?

Sushi Zushi:
I just ate enough sushi to feed a tribe of starving midgets. Went with my friend, brother and his GF to wish her a late b-day. I would say we ate everything but the menu at this place is huge. A tad on the expensive side for me (but it is 5th street) but everything was awesome except for the eel. I was surprised that did not turn out to be a texture thing for me cos I'm a texture freak...but it was just the taste I didn't like.

Mean Eyed Cat:
Went for a beer after dinner. Total neighborhood dive bar. Not many people but you could tell that those who were there were regulars. It seems to be old Austin. It is eclectic and has a Johnny Cash theme. Stands out compared to the modern concrete buildings it is sharing breathing space with.

Twinkies will never be the same!



I was ready for a good time going into this movie but it rocked even more than I thought it would! Blood and guts galore! Funny as all hell! Woody Harrelson was the bomb! I won't ruin the surprise cameo...
I've not seen a movie in a while that I have felt compelled to go another round with at the movie theater but don't be surprised to see me at another showing! I love falling in love with movies.

Tour de Drink

I feel like my last drinking blog lacked in description. Trying to work on my writing so going to do this while it is fresh in my mind and because I was crazy enough to wear 4 inch heels to 6th street last night and my feet are not ready to be walked on again...so stuck in bed. Here goes!

Serranos: Chain restaurant. I've only eaten there once before and can't report anything special.But...it turns out for happy hour, if you buy a drink, there are appetizers for $1.50!!!! Needless to say, there is only a few selections, the portions are small, and there isn't much effort put into them. But for a $1.50 who gives a damn! The Sunday paper cost more! So bring on the bean and cheese nachos! And I don't even like beans!


The Ranch: Well, I've been asking where all the cute guys in Austin are and it turns out they keep them herded up at the Ranch. I guess people drink during a recession because this place was packed and drinks were not cheap. Kamikaze shots were $5 :(
I guess that is really pretty average for 6th street. Good dance music. And for the record, just because I wear glasses doesn't mean I am a librarian. Then again, maybe I should appreciate that people think I am smarter than I am :)


Annie West: Next to the Ranch. What in the hell do they put in the drinks here???? Maybe it was because of the late hour (or the full moon) but I've never seen people act so crazy at a club!(well, that's not really true but that's another story). This bar is really not very big and it was also packed. Some guy had glasses on as well and thought that was a good enough reason to take pictures together. Another that was about 5 inches shorter me had a friend tell me he liked me and then kept popping up as if he was going to say something and then would scuttle off...like a rat. Umm,ok. The icing on the cake though was the guy I danced with, gave me his number, and then I watched him get into a physical fight.... with a chick. Number deleted.

Katz's Deli: I've not stepped foot in this place in over a dozen years. I used to have a ex-bf who worked there and it was enough to make me not go. I figured if he was still working there after 12 years then I could just give him shit. But I never made it that far. Some guy out front insisted on talking to me and tried to convince me he was my hero. Sorry dude, my hero does not work the street corner in front of Katz's Deli.
