Fine Dining

When they say sex sells, they're serious about it. I can't even begin. I nearly choked when I saw both these signs... do they even realize? Obscenity in public! Total hot mess.

Booksmut

It's been forever since I've had the pleasure of exposing a little Booksmut™ to the world. Dom's post reminded me I'm shirking my duties. We can't have that. The world needs to know the happiness that Booksmut™ brings!

... a little something for the ladies...

And the final coup de grace!*

Fathetic

So yes, paperwork has to be done, people need to be told and ID's need to be changed. It's all a headache really, and goes to show you don't get married unless you really love the person, because it's a total pain in the backside to go through all the legalities of changing stuff. Still, one tries to find light in the darkest corners.

Behold, exhibit A. This is the SSS form used for updating one's status. (Tells the government you're married). Why did it catch my eye? Because of this:

HAHAHAHAH! "Defendent." You have to tell them if anyone is "defending" on you. It's juvenile, I know. But this is a government form! An official government form, everyone fills this out, it's standard across the nation. What, no one hit F7 for spell-check before taking this to the printers?

It's established. We aren't going to pot... we are IN the pot.

Tie-Ins!

Just got done reading and watching "The Other Boleyn Girl" by Philippa Gregory. It's escapist drivel rooted in real events, the romanticized vision of what possibly happened in the heyday of pre-Protestant England. It's very well-written, so well-written it's got some Anne Boleyn fanatics in an uproar, saying Philippa's gone too far with her description of Queen Anne as a grasping, ambitious bitch.

I watched the movie before I read the book. Eric Bana? Enough said. This is the cutest he's looked since Troy.

Up next: Atonement. I'm waiting for Abby to fork over her copy of Ian McEwan's story of love and passion, as well as the corresponding DVD. We're planning a drop; she gets my Boleyn book and the corresponding DVD as well.

Read the book, watch the corresponding movie. Or vice versa. I prefer to read the book first though. Source material should always go first. I did this for Lord of the Rings. The first Harry Potter movie made me want the series. I'm waiting for the J.R. Ward vampire romance series to hit the screen but I'll probably be 40 when this happens.

Here Ya Go

I finally got around to doing it! This is all I've decided to post, my Facebook is practically stuffed with more pictures. So yes to the waiters, see I kept my promise.

All for Love

Cebu Pacific offers zero fares! Yes, fly domestic and pay nothing. Free! Free! Free!

Why? Apparently we've made the carrier number one in the country and they're so happy they could pop. You get to travel up to December 21 of this year, but here's the catch: you only have today and tomorrow to book it.

Imagine the results. Chaos and anarchy all over the ops floor when this thing went live earlier today! Everyone was booking! Deanie led the mad rush to book, and was literally all over the trainer's area egging us on. Poor Jetty barely had time to get settled after arriving, and five minutes later he was on the phone to JV the boyfriend ("what's your birthday? Quick! I'm booking fares!") and was the proud owner of a free ticket minutes later. What a morning.

I booked for my family, too. Hey, it's free. If you had to get these fares live and in person, someone would've died in the stampede. As it is, it's a mad online rush, I wonder how Cebu Pacific's site can stand the traffic. Then again, maybe this is the point.

I couldn't resist taking a screenshot of their main ad on the website. Speaks volumes, si?

Think they went over the ad before they released it online? I was laughing my ass off when I saw this. Too precious for words. Is it an intentional dig at a nation that will stop at nothing to get freebies?

I'm waiting for the catch to reveal itself though, because something tells me Cebu Pacific is going to be laughing their way home to the bank on this one. Somehow. I just know it.

Now Playing

Searching for a day, a simple life
Among the clouds, the sky is blue
Water, stars falling around at night
My dream, your dream
Dreams come true,
Trying hard
Always follow what’s in your heart
Always listen to what’s inside
Always fly high & don’t come down
And don’t come (down)
Don't push yourself far over the limit
Push your mind ahead with your spirit
Push it to where you never thought you
could go right
And never come down
You run away from a very stressing life
And take some time to think of you
Try to change the color of your life
My dream, your dream
Dreams come true,
Trying hard
Always follow what’s in your heart
Always listen to what’s inside
Always fly high & don’t come down
And don’t come (down)
Don't push yourself far over the limit
Push your mind ahead with your spirit
Push it to where you never thought you
could go right
And never come down

Pretty old song, but I just found out the title! I know, pathetic. Better late than never.

Is This the Answer?

You have to admire China. They fine you for having too many children, and they've been having the "one-child policy" since 1979.

And now this. Melamine in baby formula! Insidious! Perfidious! Effective? Click here for more.

Oh, China. Your measures are hard, cruel and realistic. Is this your way of taking the second step in the fight against overpopulation? Either way, no other country has had the guts.

Multiplication

As I was ranting, they want to know when the little ones arrive. Specifically Alex and my little ones.

1. The Reality Check/Environmental Standpoint
Do you realize how many people there are on this planet? We are procreating ourselves to kingdom come, and the Earth is screaming for mercy. Um, like, hello, it's melting? People are dying of hunger and thirst, two-thirds of the globe is water, Angelina Jolie and Hollywood lead the baby boom... is this sustainable? Will we have enough leaves of grass left to feed the world? Do you want to bring up a kid in a world where everyone is connected to an IV bag because this is the final solution?

2. Statistically Speaking
There are more women born then men. Women take care of procreation. The more women get born, the more potential babies are made. Read Number 1 again.

3. The Social Standpoint:
Personally, I can barely stand 3/4 of society. I'm not the only one, the number of chop-chop jobs, murders, rapes and various other imaginative forms of torture keep making themselves seen and heard - proof positive that we don't really like each other. And the population is growing. Are we helping each other hate more of each other?

4. The Financial Future:
The moment you have a child, that's it. Oh, it's roses and daisies and posies and sunshine. It's also buying milk and nappies and Gerber and saving up for the education and having to buy Polly Pocket collectibles, and educational flash cards and Dora the Explorer DVDs, and the lunch money and the spring break money and the money for the prom dress and the money for the wedding and the money for bail and the money, and the money, and the money. And what do you get from being a parent? Shoved in a nursing home, waiting for death. Is this really worth the joy?

You know, maybe this whole gay phenomenon is nature's way of surviving. She knows we're popping out too many babies, so she's making sure that some people at least won't procreate. But the gays can be greedy because they want kids too. And the whole darned cycle begins anew.

Mammaries

For the most part, boobs are mounds of flesh under a certain level of concealment. Sometimes they're fully concealed, as in under a t-shirt. Sometimes they're popping out, as in low cleavage. Then there's the "side boob". Or the "under-boob".

I really do think it's ridiculous, the way society views boobs. The main component of a boob is the fleshy, hilly part of it. The part that bulges out nicely. Still, no matter how much flesh is popping out, it's still a clothed boob. The only time it's a scandal is when the nipple is showing. Apparently the appearance of the nipple makes it a naked boob.

What's with that? The nipple is the tiniest part! The cherry on the sundae, so to speak. The remaining 10 percent. Pasties could be the only thing separating your nipple from the rest of the world, and you're still not considered naked?! 90% of your chest is on display! Who cares about the remaining 10 percent?

We seriously need to reassess this.

But Where are They?

Yes, yes, the pictures are forthcoming. We barely had time to breathe before coming back to big bad La Sugbu, and I had to plunge myself right back into the crazy world of a trainer, damnit. Yes, no honeymoon! None! Nada.

Fine, none yet. Plans are in place, this I vow. I'm owed a honeymoon and by the sacred chihuahua I'm gonna get it.

Patience is a virtue. In time thou shalt be rewarded, and I may even throw a video into the mix. Yes, an actual video. With all sorts of embarassingly humiliating things. This is coming soon to a theater near you, so stay tuned.
