Things I'm thinking

Wow. It's 2 am already? I guess that's the first thing I'm thinking right now but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I just got back from a lovely evening and am not quite ready to go to bed. But, facebook is boring me (why isn't anyone updating/adding anything that I actually care about? I mean, I don't give a @#$#$@#%@%@#$% if you ate a good dinner or if you changed your profile picture. EDIT your interests or add pictures for @#$##@$#'s sake! GEEZ. If you're gonna use facebook then USE facebook, you know what I mean?) and for some reason gmail isn't working on my computer...so...I guess I'll blog until fatigue completely takes over me and I pass out. I need to just wind down my mind before I can fall asleep completely.

Things I'm thinking
1) I'm tired.

YOU: Why don't you go to bed?
ME: Can you read?
YOU: Can YOU read?
ME: You're an idiot.

2) I love my shul or temple or synagogue or jew-house...whatever you want to call it. It's just so nice...and now I'm kind of making friends and I don't think that all the people there consider me a leper so that makes it even nicer! That's right, FRIENDS. ME. FRIENDS! I love FRIENDS! And tonight there was an AIDS Day service which was so beautiful...I cried (in public, I know). Le sigh.

3) I love my bed. I'm lying down in it right now (that's what she said) and the sheets are super soft. I hope that I can sleep late tomorrow and really enjoy my bed...utilize it, you know? I don't get to spend enough time here. What with spending most of my day vertically and working and going out to do things...I just don't spend enough time in here, lying down. HOT IN...SO HOT IN HERE...dooo dooo...

You know that Nelly song?

Anyway...

4) I want to see the movie 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' or whatever it's called. You know the movie with Brad Pitt? I think it looks really good. Too bad it comes out in a few weeks...and not like, right now because I seriously would go see it RIGHT NOW. Well, ok that's kind of a lie....cuz of the whole bed thing. I'm not getting out of here...maybe I'd go see it right now if it was a) out and b) my bed could fly and I could lie in bed in the movie theater and watch it. I should probably learn the exact name of the movie before I go to see it, though it's probably not too big of a problem because how many movies have the name 'Benjamin Button' in them? Like, if I asked to go see 'The Tale of Benjamin Button' instead of 'The Mysterious Case of Benjamin Button' they (the movie theater employees) would probably know what I was talking about.

5) Now I think I'm going to go to sleep. GOOD NIGHT! <3

Things

Photoshop on Demand...Pt. 5, I think.

Well, that last entry, to Jason, was kind of a joke. I mean it existed, but I'm going to delete it now. I was just showing Jason something...so...I decided to make a whole post to him?

Whatever. So, I'm watching some TV and I probably should go to bed now. It's only 10:21 (my birthday day in time format!), but I've been going to bed kind of late and well, I just need some sleep. But, I guess I could stay up a little later because I'm going to probably take a nap tomorrow. But, man! There are just so many choices, you know?! Life is just full of wonderful, wonderful choices.

Anyway, here's the second photo from the test Kate's giving me:


And here's what I did to it:



OMG. OMG. we're gonna watch 'True Blood'! BYE

Photoshop on Demand...Pt. whatever the heck this is

Kate, Kate, Kate. I'm starting to feel like Jan in the Brady Bunch with her 'Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!'. Or was it Marsha? Doesn't really matter I guess. That bi*** ain't my sister.

But Kate? Yeah, she is. She really likes the pictures that I do in my blog. I mean, they're awesome. I know. You like them don't you? Not that it matters...but you do, right? Ha ha. I can't believe I just asked you that. How embarassssssssssing.

Anyway, Kate is testing me to see if I'm really funny. I'm not exactly sure why. I never told her that I thought I was really funny. And she knows that I hate proving myself. And that when people ask me to do things I run away. And yet, here I am. Photoshopping random pictures that Kate sent me in order to prove to her that I'm funny.

HM. I guess people CAN change.

Here's the first picture she sent sans illustrations:


And after my magic:

MORE. TO. COME. bye!

Things that have happened in the past few days

I seem to have a pattern when it comes to writing blogs. I write an entry, then I take a day off. Then I write another entry, and another, and another, and then a final REALLY funny entry. And then I don't blog for a week. I know, it shouldn't be that way.

Imagine if instead of taking a break and becoming not funny I actually kept blogging, every day. If I climbed a mountain of humor and cleverness...until...I became the next Kurt Vonnegut (I say that because I happen to find him very funny and I'm reading him right now and I want to be him and be clever and think outside of my box and be funny...um yeah.) or David Sedaris (I say that because I happen to find him very funny and I was reading him recently and...you probably get the picture? right? Oh, a 'picture' is a kind of visual image. Oh God. If you don't even know what the word 'picture' is then I have no hope for you. or me. or anyone!) or perhaps the funniest person in the world!

(This girl is the 'funniest girl in the world' according to google images. hm. doesn't look so funny to me...)

But I won't do that and I don't want you to think I am. I'm sorry.

Things that have happened in the past few days:

1) I left my hair straightener on. Yeah, so what? Well, I left it on...but then didn't realize that it was on until I reached my job. In Manhattan. Queens to Manhattan is annoying enough. Sure I play down the subway ride by saying 'oh it's only 20 minutes' and normally it isn't THAT bad. But taking a crowded Queens subway during the morning rush hour MORE than once is just un-Godly. What did I do to deserve that?


I know, I spit in that little girl's food last night...for no reason...and then there was that dead corpse that found its way into my hotel room during spring break in Jamaica but I thought that what happened in Jamaica stays in Jamaica. I mean, that's true isn't it? There's no law down there.
2) I saw a woman sucking a man's chin on the subway platform. I've asked a few people about this and no, this isn't a new fad-y kind of thing. People are not supposed to suck other people's chins. WHAT THE HECK?!

3) I had red mango. WOW. You would think that red mango would get gross or become less appealing in the late fall/almost winterish months. But no, it's just as delicious in December as it is in July. Actually, it might even be MORE delicious because there are no other people in red mango at that time so you don't have to wait in line and you can have any seat that you want!

(If you want to know how hard it is to hold apples to apples cards, a red mango sundae and be awesome at the same time I'll tell you. It's really hard. But also really delicious. That's what she said. I could really keep going. But I won't.)


4) I finished reading 'Cat's Cradle'. Wow. WOW! What a great book! I've read it already, at least once and possibly twice times (I know that's not correct, just keeping you on yo' toe-z yo!), but it just gets better.

5) Didn't watch an episode of 'True Blood'. Yeah, well...I want to watch one real bad!

6) I went to Kate's senior sermon. Where to begin...with the great sermon/lecture gave? Or the nice time spent with family and friends? Or the delicious pareve desserts (who knew that veganish desserts could be so delicious?)? Or the delicious/beautiful lunch?
(the restaurant was really pretty inside!) If that wasn't nice then I don't know what is.


7) I've gone to shake shack on the upper west side for dinner (twice). OH YES. I heard somewhere that if you're feeling a little too chubby lately and wanting to lose a few pounds before traveling to Israel the best remedy is to eat burgers and fries for dinner twice in three days, and to eat candy before breakfast and cupcakes and brownies before lunch. YEP.
For the record though, one time I went quickly and by myself and the second time I went with two friends...so even though it was the same food it was a different experience each time. Also I was wearing different things.

Photoshop...Pt. 3

HI EVERYONE! Happy...um...after Thanksgiving! I'm sitting listening to 'Charlie Wilson's War' (I say listening because I'm obviously not watching. I mean, I can type without looking at the keyboard but to type without looking at the keyboard OR screen would be too much. I'm not that talented. But 'thanks' if you thought I was :)

Maybe you noticed that this entry wasn't called 'Photoshop on Demand...' like the past two have been. You might wonder why that is?

You: Becky, but where's the 'on demand'? Where did it go?!
Me: UM, well...it didn't 'go' anywhere. It never existed in the title of this entry. I chose not to type it.
You: But why?!
Me: Well, no one demanded what I'm about to do.
You: OHHHHHHHHHHH. Why am I so stupid?
Me:The better question is 'why am I friends with you?'


Wooooooooooow. JK JK JK. No I like you. You're fine.

Back story: I think Nicole Kidman has funny eye brows. Were it not for her eye brows I might think she was stunning. I don't think she's ugly or anything, but her eye brows are SO weird. I think they ruin her face.

So here's what I'm doing today. I'm going to put up some pictures of Nicole Kidman with new eyebrows and see if she really DOES look better. Please, tell me what you think of them.

1) Original Nicole, in all her glory:

2) Eye brows a little bit higher:

3) Eye brows a little bit higher and a little bit of a different shape:

4) Eye brows from The Bronx

5) Eye brows from Queens:

6) The 'Gwen Stefani':
7) The 'Whoopi Goldberg':
8) The 'Groucho Marx':

9) If the eye brows are a little higher do they make her forehead look smaller?:

9) What if they're even higher and purple? Does that help her forehead sitch?:

10) The 'Luck of the Irish':

11) For Funzies:

Photoshop on Demand...Pt.2

What happened guys? I gave you specific directions: e-mail me, you know ME, the person who writes this blog?, with pictures and I will make them AWESOME for you. All YOU have to do is send me pictures. I'm the one doing all the work. But fine.

I mean, you're the ones who want to read this right?

So here's one picture that I got from Kate. This blog is starting to feel like 'The Kate Show', since she's the only one REALLY INVESTED in it but I mean, whatevs. Like I said. Fine.

I call this picture: "She's like the wind"

Maybe I call it that because Kate's singing that song?

Anyway, and here's another picture of ME to wish you all a happy belated thanksgiving! I really had started this BEFORE thanksgiving...but then I didn't have enough time to finish it. OK? So, um...maybe it's not REALLY that belated?

PEACE OUT!
