I fell in love...again
Tuesday, November 28, 2006
Well that got YOUR attention didn't it! Worry not. It will not happen. But I went and saw "For Your Consideration" last night and I fell in love again with Parker Posey. I will not tell you where I first fell in love with her, but needless to say she is very cute. Probably very taken, and probably NEVER gonna meet me. But in case she Googles her name and this pops up...you are hot. Your latest movie, however, was not. It's not your fault, you did an ok job with a horrible script. This is the same writer that did "Waiting for Guffman." You know, the one where the community theater hears a rumor that Guffman (a big theater critic) is coming to see their performance, which throws them all into puffing themselves up and culminates with...Guffman never showing up. Going into this movie I thought it was going to be similar in the sense that it would be a mocumentary about drama kids. I did not expect it to be THE SAME movie. The plot was predictable (if you've seen Guffman, you've seen Consideration), and the jokes were old. The only thing that kept me entertained was seeing it with Ms. Jay (no...not the flaming runway coach) from work. She apparently had never seen Guffman, and was just cracking up the whole time.
So Congrats to Parker for having a cool name and for doing a good job, but Mr. Guest, you sir, are a one trick pony and its not even a good trick.

Acting Debut
Thursday, November 23, 2006
Guess what I did last night? I was in a trailer for a movie thats not even made yet. It's kinda an interesting idea. They write the script, and then hire someone to make a trailer to help when they are shopping the movie around to different places. So I'm in a trailer of a movie that MIGHT get made. So no, you won't ever see it on the big screen, but maybe once the trailer gets made, it will be online for you to see. The last one this guy did made it to his personal page, so...who knows. Anyways...im the dead body that slames up against the car window. All you see is my bloody face and hand, as I slide down the window. It's funny because whats the one thing I HATE about scary movies? The jumpy parts. Now I'm the jumpy part. It was TONS of fun. I love my new friends, they do such interesting things.

Thanksgiving .5
Thursday, November 16, 2006
Ahh...Thanksgiving. Mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey....yumm. I went to a party last night and had a blast. I didn't know ANYONE there except the hostess. I met some very cool people, we decided that while right NOW I was not Cabana Boy material, after a week or so of delivering drinks in the sun, and working out in my free time, I would be ready for my new job. We talked about England, and mock trials, and the color red. There were over 200 different colors of crayons for our coloring enjoyment. To top it all off, I met Kacie, and usually you have to write off the "ie" kids as white trash, but there is always an exception that proves the rule. So while it was a few days early it was still Thanksgiving and truly an enjoyable evening.Then I switched gears. Improv!? Yep, just like back when I was a DeBono kid and went every week, I went and saw some improv at the Iron Post. I haven't laughed so hard in a long time. I know most of the guys in the troupe, and while they are funny people most of the time, it was weird to see them acting on stage. All the different characters they did, it was really funny.
The best part is that even when I'm not at my bar, I still run into people I know. And you KNOW you are in good with your bartender when you run into him off the clock at a different bar and he buys you a drink...either that or I'm in there too much and need to cut back.
P.S.
I want my bowl back.

Body age
Wednesday, November 15, 2006
I am 26.By body is 22, according to some tests that I took (weight, strength, flexibility, body fat content, etc). I could be 18 if I stretched further, and if my strength went from average to excellent. I think I'm OK being average...plus, who wants to be 18! I'm sure this is not healthy. I don't think you are supposed to be 18 at 26. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with me being so skinny. So I'm bulking up! Jake says to just accept it, and go soft like the rest of us, I say push ups and sit ups make me feel awesome everyday that I do them.

The "it" girl
Monday, November 13, 2006
I looked up pictures of Scarlett Johansson. She's cute, but shes not anything to write home about. We were having a discussion last night about how shes hot and how I should have seen a movie with her in it. I seriously had no clue who she was. Plus all the movies they listed off were not movies I had seen. Needless to say, people were VERY disappointed in me for not having seen her before. Now that I have seen her, I give her an "eh" with a shrug of the shoulders. Shes no Jessica Alba who I think EVERYONE can agree is very good looking. Even chicks want to kiss on her.P.S.
Don't EVER do this to yourself girls....EVER.

Finding women is easy...
Saturday, November 11, 2006
Hello!I am Polina. I am a vivid and emotional person who doesn't like lies. I love people and I appreciate when they are sincere with me because I am a sincere person too. I like traveling, enjoy the nature and the life. As every woman I am mysterious and like tender flower I blossom under the rays of love.
I like flowers, animals, I adore to spend the time at the seaside. I like cooking when I have an inspiration. I adore when people around me smile and enjoy their own and their friends' success. I want to love my only man till the end of time.
Crazy....I hate lies too! She sounds perfect for me! Get this, all i gotta do is email some Russian address and agree to go get her from Russia, and bring her back...then she can be inspired to cook by me!
Seriously...spam is outta control these past few months.

DVD's
Thursday, November 09, 2006
So I barrow "V for Vendetta" the graphic novel and then I barrow the movie. When I return the book, I also lend the movie to Lynda. Now the movie is not mine, but I checked with the owner and they said it was cool. So the movie and book are sitting out on her desk for the day because...why would you put that kinda stuff away? So it's sitting there and people are coming by and they are like..."oooohhhh, can I barrow that?" I shit you not, it's like six times. So I take it upon myself to figure out how to copy DVD's on a Mac. Turns out, it takes about three days (because I'm never home to do more than one step at a time) to get all the stuff together, but I do it. It copies, I now have a burned copy of "V for Vendetta" to loan around work. Sure...it's not the original, but I'm pretty sure someone will appreciate it. PLUS this means I can copy DVD's again with out hooking up my desktop.

Grown-up parties
Sunday, November 05, 2006
Grown-up parties are fun. I got to rub shoulders with the rich and famous of downtown. That's right folks, Cody Sokolski, owner of "The Paper/Octopus/whatever its called these days" and Boltini Lounge, and some other bar knows me by my first name thanks to the costume birthday party I went to. The other advantage is that I got to wear the Referee outfit again. So I think I'm getting my moneys worth. But now that it's been two years, I will have to come up with a new costume for next year.Feel free to give me some ideas.
