Topical

Ever since I received a flier for Tipsy's in Trussville, a southern suburban scenester club (what a mouthful), I've felt challenged to come up with appropriate one line ads to help promote the business.

All I have so far is:

Want to be itchy for days? Come on down to Tipsy's!

Ever had illicit thoughts about your youth group leader? Come on down to Tipsy's!

Does your father not pay enough attention to you? Come on down to Tipsy's!

Are you a self important douchenozzle? Come on down to Tipsy's!

Do you have an anarchist tattoo but vote conservative? Come on down to Tipsy's!

I'm sure I can do better. I'll work on it.

So here's something to think about.

Piranha 3D vs Jaws
                                                                            
I know, it sounds a little ridiculous. I mean, Jaws all the way, right? But I still can't figure out if Piranha truly wants to be its own entity, or if it is just a goofy gorefest love letter to Jaws. Does anyone know the answer to the question? Its the presence of Richard Dreyfuss in both films that makes this confusing. Plus, I'm torn between not wanting to drop money on yet another silly 3d experience and my desire to see Doc Brown and bloody spring break Girls With Low Self Esteem

And to close, I washed my hands at work with a delightful Bath and Bodyworks soap called Twilight Woods. The experience was pleasant until I realized what they were trying to capitalize on. Oh. Oh. Ohhhh. Et tu, Bath and Bodyworks?

Blogless

Oh, its not that I don't have anything to write about- I've had several topics floating around in my head...

The overuse of the word "hipster"
My hatred of black boxes as set pieces
Political rant after political rant after political rant
The difficulty of moving
An essay on why I think my cat might be starring in a new comedy central show
Thoughts on kick ass women vs phony tarts
A long winded theory as to why I have watched Funny Lady six times in the past month
A list of places I want to go and then complaints over money (its quite a list)

And so on and so forth. I don't have much of an excuse, other than coming home in a post work funk that leaves me either wanting a nap or a drink. In an attempt to not be asleep or drunk, I've tried to spend most of my time out of the apartment.
As a self important 21st century gal, I feel as though I'm not doing my job here. If I'm not blogging, however will people know how totally deep/smart/funny I am?  

Maybe I can woo you with music videos. (They've kept my work addled brain from turning to mush)
