A blog inspired by Puja

Happy Birthday Puja!

Friday Puja emailed me to ask for my dimensions for the bridesmaids dress for her wedding. I guess her Aunt or someone is traveling to india to get the outfits made. I couldnt be more excited.

This is what puja tells me is the general idea of it (different colors):


In my excitement I showed Leslie and Tristan the outfit and we headed out to the pool on sat. We then embarked on one of our infamous missions to target and saw one or two people wearing similar outfits. Each time someone would remark something along the lines of "oooh maybe yours will look like that". We thought it was kinda strange that we saw so many, but didnt think much of it. What i found particularly weird after browsing the website puja sent me was that most of the outfits we saw looked more like "festival" outfits than every day stuff. Oh well maybe I missed the memo and that was now the cool thing to do.

Well sat night on my way back from capitol hill Leslie and I found ourselves infront of the convention center, face to face with maybe 50 people in the same type of clothing!

dont you think its A little coincidental that within a day of seeing what mine is going to look like there is an entire CONVENTION in town for that? Its too bad mine hasnt been made yet, otherwise I would have fit right in.

Side note: once mine is made and the wedding is over I fully intend to casually throw it into my wardrobe at least once a week.

sucky friday

I couldnt be happier that its almost the weekend. I know we got the 4th off but today and yesterday are sucky lab days. I've never wanted a test to end more.

on the bright side we are kicking off the weekend with a nats brewers baseball game. Will organized it, and its mostly his office plus me leslie and tristan...so it should be fun with a few awkward instances. yeah....that should be weird.

anyway i'm off to the lab.

weird

I hope you all had a good 4th. I'm not ready to be back at work...but here I am.

This is a follow up blog...remember that herb garden I planted months back? Well something is finally growing....no, its not herbs. its two baby pigeons. Yeah, thats right, a mom pigeon made a nest and laid 2 eggs in my herb garden. its on that part of my balcony that you cant really see b/c it hides behind the wall. So tuesday I go out to my balcony before heading out to Rocketbar so I know what the temperature is like and this piegon nearly attacks me before flying away. I turn to where it flew at me from and there is the nest and eggs. As of today the mom is back sitting on the eggs. I dont think i'll be going out on that balcony for a bit.


UPDATE:
I've named the mom pigeon "pidgie"...Suggestions for the two baby pigeons are welcome. Dad pigeon seems to be mia...typical

Update 2:

I looked up pigeon life cycle and it looks like these little suckers hatch within 17 days...then they will be here like 4 weeks...i dont know what I'm gonna do if they are noisy! also I have this fear that they will never go away. I WANT MY BALCONY BACK

Happy 4th

Happy Birthday America.

Also Happy Birthday John Waite. If I said "I aint missin you at all" I'd be lying. Every day I wake up and wish that you'd put out another cd. As a lot of you know my morning alarm clock is a CD player, I think I'm probably going to go out and buy the 1992 classic "The Essential John Waite" so you can gently wake me up each and every morning...honestly I dont know why I dont have it already.

More Atlantic City Thoughts

Things i forgot to post yesterday about atlantic city.

1. I wish instead of rickshaws up and down the boardwalk i wish they had giant motorized monopoly pieces. I definately would have blown my entire winnins to ride in a hat car or iron car. Other than that it was a little cool feeling like you are walking around the monopoly board.

2. We found an ad for Calligula's couples club. That amused me more than it should, but noone would go with me. They had "semi private rooms" and Mirrored dance floors.

3. It turns out i like/am amused by trump a whole lot more than I thought I was

4. Jordan got a royal flush which resulted in him getting comp cards at the trump bengal club...I wonder what it takes to get comped a room there.

Thats all I've got for now

Atlantic City

This weekend six of us went to Atlantic City, me, Tristan, Leslie, Mike, Ted, and Jordan. It was an awesome weekend.

Friday night we got there and immediately hit the tables and began drinking. Thats the nice thing about casinos...free drinks. So by 2am we were ready for a little dinner. The night ended with me hitting 41 bucks on penny slots. that was pretty sweet.

The next day was alternated by shopping beach and more casinos before dinner and the rest of the night in casinos. At one point tristan turned on Star Wars because she said she was trying to get in my pants and clearly that was the fastest route. its true.


My favorite moment was when leslie passed out before midnight and I did what any good friend would do...place things on her and take pictures (look for those soon) but she rallied and made it out to more casinos.

I'd say its fair to say fun was had by all. I probably missed some awesome story which i guess i'll post later. but i'm so tired right now that I just dont care.

do you want to sponsor me?

Leslie and I were discussing various ways we could make money, and the best plan is to figure out a way to get sponsored for this blog. I mean check it out, I blog every week day, thats not bad right? and if you sponsor me i'll find a way to throw your product into my daily blogs.

We discussed, and Leslie thinks that she should be sponsored by Dove or Ben's Chili bowl, and she suggested that I get sponsored by Trojan.

Those are good suggestions leslie, although I'd be ok with anyone sponsoring me as long as I could get some money and maybe some free stuff here and there. So if you are reading my blog and want to sponsor me that would be awesome. thanks.
