How to Break-up properly.

2011-08-30T17:00:00.000-05:00

How to break-up properly.

Step 1:
Make them take you out to dinner and pretend as if nothing in the world is wrong. Give them a false sense of security about the status of your relationship.

Step2:
Secretly take all the stuff you care about out of his/her place or start the process to separate your things. SECRETLY

Step 3:
Get a friend or hire someone if you must, to pose as your FB boyfriend. You need to stage a couple of photos that would be super convincing. But don't Post the pics or change your status until Step 5.

Step 4:
Record yourself with either your phone or the recording feature on your computer, with a simple cold blooded message.
"Hey guess what I am breaking up with you. I realized that I literally can't take your bullsh*t on top of your bad body odor anymore. I actually kind of hate you now. Well its been real, take it easy."

That was inspired by the classic scene in one of my fave movies Harlem Nights.

Step 5:

Compile your favorite break up songs. I like a mixture of threatening, some with and F U vibe, or I have been cheating on you feel.

Bust your windows out your car - Jazmine Sullivan
Deuces - Chris Brown {HAHAHAHA who didn't find this hilarious}
Potential Break Up- Aly and AJ
Creep - TLC {The implications say it all}
To The Left -Beyonce (I added this because this song is soo irritating I always figured I would use it for torture)
If he cheated - Carrie Underwood
F* You - Cee Lo
Cry me a river - any version

There are tons more out there.

Step 6:
As your last track go ahead and record yourself again to make real sure this soon to be ex knows exactly why your breaking it off.

"You smell, your a liar, you suck in the bedroom and not in a good way either. I am tired of your complaining, your inability to think of anyone besides yourself. And did I mention you smell like ass."

Then go right ahead and forward his/her friends the cd, just so they can have a better understanding of the situation.

Step 7:
After the breakup and the fake/real Boyfriend/ girlfriend take a trip. Or a psuedo trip. Post on your FB, and your vacation email response that your on a fabulous trip. And don't answer any calls, your too busy having "fun" remember.

Step 8:

This is the most important step. Take a deep breath and get over the loser.

I feel like this must be said.

DO NOT cut your hair!

From Waiting to exhale to Brittany Spears. I am not sure what the hell is with the female mind with cutting off one's hair after a break up.

Yes your heart is broken and your trying to heal, and during said healing process you convince yourself you need to revitalize your look. But lets not be too drastic.

Before you start cutting off your luxerious hair think of this one factor.-- Your face might look fat with short hair. Nobody wants a fat face.

My Favorite video so far. Love this girl.

How to Live in One Room with some Class.

2011-07-26T11:30:00.002-05:00

How to live in a one bedroom with some class. This is pretty much for the clutterbug who only has the dime for a one bedroom or worse studio. Its gonna be difficult but I swear these lessons will go a long way.

First and foremost it goes without saying, but i will say it any way, multipurpose furniture. Sites like www.spacesandiego.com are loaded with furniture that serve more than one need.

Its a Desk/Couch

Need more seating, coffee tables that ottomans fit underneath is a pretty cool idea.

Mirrors, to make it seem a little larger.

Room dividers, are usually the number one suggestion, but I don't really like them unless there used to their fullest potential. The idea is to make your small space seem as big as possible and use the existing space as smart as possible. Some people just plop down a room divider thinking they have really done something brilliant, when in actuality all they have done is shrunk there already small space.

Kitchenette, ideal when your renting a room. The key to an in room kitchenette is--invisibility. Placing the mini-fridge next to the sofa with a piece of plywood to fit on top, then add a nice fabric to drape over. Voila! Instant side table. Or you can always get more creative.

Hide the microwave in a cabinet.


Closed it just looks like boxes.

Murphy beds have gotten a lot cooler.

Stop buying CDs and DVDs. Either buy a external hard drive or just watch it online. In the year 2011 there is no point in having that crap to collect dust.

Wall mount everything and buy loads of shelves. I have a personal belief that all electronics should either be hidden or on floating shelves. Either hide them or show them off properly.

Storage space in every place! And i mean every place. Go to an Ikea and you will see tons of cool coffee tables that can hold loads of stuff.

MY FAVE!

Last but not least watch a few episodes of Hoarders and Buried Alive, that crap will get you motivated enough to throw all your stuff away.

Wanted! Diva in Need of a Personal Assistant!

2011-04-27T15:25:00.002-05:00

I came across this article a long time ago and I thought it was sheer brilliance.

“Georgetown student advertises for a personal assistant
The successful applicant will do laundry, gas up the car and handle other 'everyday tasks' for busy sophomore
“The successful applicant can expect to work three to seven hours a week and make $10 to $12 an hour, although "on occasion it will be possible to work additional hours and/or receive bonuses at my discretion."”

“"As my PA you will receive an email once a day by 9:00 am with a task list for that day and a time estimate for each task," Cooper wrote in the job listing, which was first reported by the student newsmagazine, Georgetown Voice. "Important tasks will be bolded on the list and must be done that day (even though everything on the list should theoretically be finished on a daily basis). At the end of the day you will send me an email telling me what tasks are incomplete or that all tasks have been completed."”

The article goes on to explain a little about the student and then other students reaction. Click on the link at the end of my post to see the original article.

Personally I could kick myself for not thinking to do this when I was in college. Just remembering all the days I suffered walking across those insanely large parking lots then across the ridiculously spread out campus of UTA loaded down with my junk. I could have had some underpaid lackey to do my bidding.

This man is the devil to his PA. Its hilarious.

But why stop at college! The more I think about it, the more I realize I could use a PA for my life as of now.

I even started a tentative schedule.

Every morning they should check their email for message I sent at around 2:15 a.m. This would most likely begin with a lot of rants and complaints for their shoddy work from the previous day before getting down to the to-do list.
First and foremost I should be awakened at 9:30 a.m. Everyday with the lights sounds of my Enya station on pandora and the fragrant scent of one of my yankee candles.
My PA should go to my favorite waffle house to fend off the old folks and truckers from my favorite booth near the window, while making sure my menu is free from syrup and food particles.
Fold and put away all my laundry that always seems to haunt my place. I can wash it but I swear it kills me to put that crap away.
Participate in a little guerrilla marketing for my business. Dressed in billboards with my advertisements WHILE handing out fliers, placing fliers on car windshields, fliers on neighborhood doors.
Find something decent on TV to watch so I can eat . I cant tell how much that annoys me to waste time trying to find something watch. Who eats dinner without TV?!
Organize my sock drawer. Its a catastrophe.

Just a taste of the exciting career being my Personal Assistant.

Homeless is Chic now.

2011-01-06T23:48:00.000-06:00

This is awesome! This new product just gives nasty girls an excuse not to shower. Its this whole collection by TRESemme called FreshStart.

Its basically the line I imagine Ke$ha using. After brushing her teeth with some Jack Daniels and screwing that homeless looking guy in her video she just pulls some Freshtart collection out of her purse to de-grease.

This is the most popular product out of the collection, the dry shampoo. Instead of taking a purifying, not to mention lady like shower, after a long day of sleeping off the hangover from the all-night party you attended just spray this shower in a can on your hair and your good to-go.

But did you notice the important factor that's missing? This product was designed for people who couldn't catch a shower so Tresemme made a product that will make your hair look presentable, but it leaves out everything else. I mean the whole meaning of a "Ho-bath" is to get the vitals (crotch, ass and armpits) this product does nothing for those areas. So my advise to all the Ke$has out there, is to carry some baby wipes and a bottle of Scope and pray some guy won't notice you haven't bathed in a couple o days. Classy.

People are nasty!

2010-12-14T12:46:00.000-06:00

Cold raw horror raced down my spine as I read this article.

http://www.nbcwashington.com/around-town/fashion/The-Jeans-You-Cant-Wash-for-a-Year.html

The mere fact that there are people willing to spend over $100 on jeans is appalling enough but the fact that they will spend it on clothes they CANNOT WASH IS F*#%ING DISGUSTING.

My God why would anyone want something they could not wash? This pattern of thinking led me down the rabbit hole of horror which incidently led me Google. With the insertion of a simple question "how often do people bathe" into the all knowing search engine the remainders of the my faith in society was destroyed.

21% of the population does not shower everyday.

As a PR professional I know these surveys were probably a bunch of crap. They were probably given out in one location, to 17 people, consisting of three ethnicity groups, at 2:00pm on a Wednesday. Basically destroying the whole definition of a survey. However the mere fact that this number was anything above 5% is baffling. Because in that 5% in my head i was trying to consider the homeless. So that has to mean there is some disgusting whore traipsing all over town all day going home and jumping her filthy, sweaty , grimy ass in the bed (THE BED YOU SLEEP IN).

And to top it all off.

A shower survey sponsored by VertiSpa states that 42% urinate while bathing.

Too disgusted to comment.

Lets get "Twisted"!!

2010-11-28T17:32:00.000-06:00

Stupidity will attack you at any time.

Random B-Boy Stance pic

While trying to relax and enjoy True Life I was assaulted.

Attacked by the fact that the "creative directors" behind this commercial thought this would "speak" to the African American teen scene,

"twisted"????!!

"nah you straight" Really?! Wow ...ok then.

Is there ever really a need for pathetic slang? This is sad display of wannabe coolness, is equivalent to your parents adopting words like "wack," "tight," and "da bomb" its repulsive!!!

The moral of this post is to stop the retarded slang and just curse like an adult. :)

Chris Brown was on Living Single!!!

2010-11-16T21:55:00.002-06:00

Om my God! If you tell me you don't see it I will call you a liar in your face!

Not only is this dance routine in the hallway a very effeminate dance for the now thuggish Chris Brown, its a complete rip off of Living Single intro dancer. Why a grown ass man would want to rip that dance off eludes me.

Ok now look at the dancer in the intro to a very good show.

If you don't see the striking similarities then email me at support@sweetdeesignz.com ...so i can call you a liar.
Chris Brown is a loser for this dance routine but I will commend him on two things:

1.) The boy could get some serious air underneath him. I have never seen somebody jump so damn high.

2.) This song is f*%$ing AWESOME!

Guide to Being Rich.

2010-04-21T20:55:00.000-05:00

Dammit I wanna be rich.

I say this everyday as I go to work.

Unfortunately on my way to work I go through some very nice neighborhoods and I am beleaguered with the constant images of rich people and their rich people lifestyles. Big houses, private docks, gazebos, private driveways, iron gates, maids, and nice cars.

I become bitter.

So I have come up with my own fool proof steps to becoming rich.

Rob people: You would surprised what the internet can tell you. Tips and tricks on good ‘ol wholesome mugging.
Become a scam artist: see my scam post.
Marry into money:
House sit for the rich and pretend your them.
Become Paris Hilton’s BFF
Become the worlds youngest gamer.
Start your own mafia: No not the retarded Facebook Mafia game my mother is currently addicted too.
Sell the hell out of some Avon

If you have any other ideas feel free to comment and if I bust out laughing i will surely post them on this post.

2 People eating Crap for $20

2010-03-29T11:58:00.000-05:00

I am convinced that Chili's and other like restaurants are running the biggest scam of all times--bigger than Watergate, Enron, Madoff and well you get the jist. Now hold your panties as i take you on this conspiracy train.

Now imagine customers sitting down at the local Chili's, they get their food and for some reason whether it be cold, not what they ordered or just simply change of mind they send it back.

NOW STOP!

You ever wonder where that unaccepted plate of food goes? Well Chili's corporate sure as heck did, and they devised a simple but devious scheme to make you pay for that plate in the end.

The 2 for $20 scheme.

They simply give you the mistakes and returns throughout the day as your 2 for $20 "special".

Ok if you still do not believe me just think about it. How come if you order the same dish on the 2 for $20 menu at regular price you get it and it seems like some effort went into it. But if you order it off the despicable 2 for $20 menu you some luke-warm second thought of a plate.

Just think about it.

How to Slack Off at Work.

2010-03-15T20:51:00.000-05:00

I am an American which it should naturally mean that I would be living the "American Dream." Well--I am not. Don't get me wrong I am not saying I am not blessed, but like any progressive thinking person I want it all.

SO for now as I work hard for my dreams to take off, I am stuck working for someone else. A savvy business minded person like myself will never be truly happy working for someone else no matter what the job offers. The very thought of being trapped inside an office for the rest of my working life conforming to other people's rules drives me bananas.

So until my dreams come to fruition, I figured I would come up with some techniques on how to slack off on the job and so you can do more for yourself and get paid for it.
· Get to work early! You can beat the traffic and have time to collect yourself and do a little more research on your business.
· Go to http://epic.org/privacy/tools.html to find some great proxy servers that allows you to surf the net discreetly.
· Use your phone or wi-fi device to download job apps to apply to jobs you don't hate or at least send yourself a list to your email. That's one less thing to worry about when you get home.
· Keep large piles of work on your desk, it doesn't have to be messy just enough to make it look like you have and have been doing some serious work. The object is to deter the supervisor from giving you more work.
· And if your having an extra slacker day and you get to work late just tell them you were in the building but you were in the bathroom on the 1rst floor or you got out of your car and you noticed that you had a flat and had to go fill it up. Basically come up with some serious full proof excuses.
· Take bathroom naps, and if your boss ask you what took so long just give them the "I can believe your asking me" look and tell them very politely that you were using the bathroom.

Have any suggestions? If their good i will post them to the original post with your name or website.

WTF: When pedophiles write music.

2010-03-03T08:13:00.000-06:00

Now for your WTF break of the day.

I guess even a pedophile needs music they can relate to.

( I found this in an antique store.)

WTF: Hot-Mess Hair Express!

2010-02-20T16:52:00.000-06:00

Sit back and take a ride on my "Hot Mess Hair Express!"

A random lady with a serious poof ball. Its not bad...but its not good either.

A lady who was supposed to be helping me but spent her time talking to her friend on the phone. So while giving off the illusion she is "working" I noticed her hair and decided to take a photo.

Believe it or not the lady in the back did my hair that day. I like to say I am daring.

And last but not least the classy hair styles offered at Redbird Mall. These timeless hairstyles are not only for clubbing but for wonderful occasions like Easter, graduation, and prom.

WTF! Pic-O-week. Man walking his bird.

2010-01-25T21:21:00.000-06:00

No "Man walking his bird" is not some crazy sex position in urban dictionary--well i don't think it is, maybe someone should check on that.

No this is actually a literal photographic depiction of the title. Please observe.

Before you think it, NO he never takes the bird off his walking leash. That bird just rides on that poor naive loser's arm the entire time. I like to call his jaunt around the park, which is conveniently in front of the Q's patio window (which we stare out of like weirdos, oddly enough looking for weirdos to look at.), "Airing out the bird." I mean what else could he be doing to that poor creature, who is trapped with a man who likes to walk birds.

I think I might start some sort of rally to petition for that birds release from that weirdo.

But in the mean time I shall continue to peek out the window through the blinds and watch people as they pass, and on occasion duck from people who catch me.

Unholy Art Store

2009-12-10T19:32:00.000-06:00

Since The Q, my main squeeze, is an artist we stopped by the local art store near the apartment.

Little did we know...

Seemingly normal from the outside.

Well almost...I swear from the looks of things we were thinking this was a company storage house.

One of the employees arriving late as hell--and mildly dirty looking.

But once you cross the threshold you are faced with utter terror. Each aisle is filled with clutter, that looks as if its been there for months. Boxes on higher shelves lean precariously over shoppers' heads.

The condition the employees allow themselves to work in makes me wonder how large are the rats that surely must infest this place. (Believe it or not this is their desk from the back where they enter/exit from. I was trying to get a view of the inside of the counter area.)

Lets just say I didn't want to touch anythng for the fear of never being clean again. (The view a paying customer would see over the counter.)

Now to be fair, ~~I found~~, let me correct that, the mildly-dirty employee found what i was looking for and we enjoyed talking to the staff. However, the experience i am sure would be the equivalent of shopping in a well stocked dumpster--slightly dangerous and very much so hazardous to your health.

Ahh Asel Arts what an experience you offered.

Spur of the moment post!-Kid Sister...weird ass video.

2009-11-21T13:06:00.000-06:00

This is the first of many. Welcome to the spur of the moment post.

Surfing through the online version of The Quick ( a once awesome mini edition of the Dallas morning newspaper that has now been watered down and focused on anything but actual news) i found the world cheapest video.

Kid Sister - New Music - More Music Videos

No I am not judging the sad excuse for music because frankly i don't think that's music in the slightest. But I will judge the fact that the visoe was shot in a nail salon and the fact that everyone is wearing multi-colored Lisa Frank windbreakers from the 80's.

I know the 80's feel is coming back but Holy Crap! The look we are not trying to go for is a 60 year old smoker who smells like White Diamonds attending her nightly session of bingo located at the local bazaar.

Kid Sister even though i never heard of you please please stop making 2 dollar videos with all your friends and wearing bad thrift store clothes.

Vintage Fun!

2009-11-19T10:02:00.000-06:00

I love vintage clothing. No not because I am addicted to the Rachel Zoe show, because I have been watching old movies from the 40’s and 50’s since I was little. I have always wanted to be that chick running to the grocery store in a great dress and heels and not look like I was trying too hard.

Oh the pill box hats!

The Lucite box purses!

And let us not forget….THE FABULOUS JEWELRY!

(HAHA like any other's jewelry would be posted!)

Yes I am ready and willing to sacrifice everything in my closet with honest to God beauty.

Here is a slide show of my recent excursion to one of my favorite antique shops in Dallas.

(Hover pointer over image for the text)

The Rachel Zoe project is all I need in life. Rachel is a drama queen that I would love to know. Brad ( I think that’s his name) is my hero. And Taylor…is annoying. Rachel’s husband…I hate is hair cut soooooo much.

I loves Rachel’s obsession for Chanel. I LOVE CHANEL! I don’t own a damn thing Chanel but its not for the lack of trying. I am just too darn cheap.

Here are some fun Chanel Polyvore collections other people did. (I am soo lazy)

Hobo Decorating.

2009-11-09T17:26:00.001-06:00

Ok so I love romance novels! It’s no secret I have been reading the stuff since Junior High, resulting in me reading literally thousands of good wholesome smut. So when I saw this idea I thought it was the cleverest decorating idea ever.

(yes this is in a bathroom, HAHAHA the bathroom at half price books no less)

A room border made out of romance novel covers! I mean how cool is that! I would so love that. Although I would think getting matching paint would be a little bit of a decision.

So when I saw the "romantic" border I started to wonder. What else could you do with your favorite things just collecting dust.

Why people do this I will never know, but some people collect shot glasses from places they travel to only for the shot glasses to pile up and collect dust (and never fill them up with sweet booze). A tragic death for a shot glass.

Why not turn it into a candle. Simply go buy a candle refill (votive) and place it into the shot glass. Voila, you got a useful shot glass! And you can still keep the stupid thing as a travel keepsake.

So racking my brain trying to figure out what it is that I collect, I passed by the drawer in my room that I never open...and I remembered. SCARVES!

I love vintage scarves! I would literally traipse through estate sales plucking scarves from here and there (sometimes from the hands of a random old lady and then running away laughing manically).

But the problem is I am not big on wearing scarves all the time, and some or so old and pretty I don't want to ruin them.

So one clever way to take your pretty scarves out of the drawer, is to frame them for all to see.

(picture is courtesy of country living)

Well that's it.
Until next time.

The Nasty Little Cupcake

2009-10-29T08:49:00.007-05:00

Whole Foods Hates Cupcakes

Ok as you can guess I love cupcakes. I loved them way before they were popular. I mean they are so aesthetically pleasing and not to mention delicious. Cupcakes are my absolute temptation, I could be doing sooo good on a strict "one day" diet regiment and I could just see a cupcake and I go crazy. With no rhyme or reason i will find my usually controlled self whipping out my credit card to buy that precious baked good.

Well my mother who i must admit is a devious creature, was at Whole Foods buying herself more raw foods for her diet regiment, which is a lot longer than my very strict "one day" diet, and she decided to buy me cupcakes.

My family is filled with undermining.

So I begrudgingly snatched a cupcake on my way out.

Let me just say this.

I took one bite and i had to call on a higher power to not denounce cupcakes right then and there. God those things are disgusting. I don't know what they did or did not do but i tell you one thing it was sooo un-holy.

I looked all around the box to make sure i wasn't eating some sort of joke cupcake or a crazy ass "healthy" cupcake.Oh sweet God the only thing i wanted to do was run to a real bakery and devour real authentic cupcakes to replace the un-holy taste.

But i think i might have to bump up my tedious "one day" diet to a "One day & an hour."

Ok so decided to make my own darn cupcake to restore my lost faith in tiny baked goods.
First of all they came out AWESOME! My family, boyfriend, his family and myself went through these things in 1 and half day. The beauty of it they were just plain cupcakes with homemade cream cheese frosting. Soooooo good. And fast as heck to make.

Now if your looking at the end of the pictures you will notice i tried to take some black frosting and do a little bit of decorating. My theory was to expertly draw on the double C's of Chanel and have some "Couture cupcakes" but...I did not think the stuff would come out so damn thick and make it ugly as F*%$!

In the end I just scraped off the design and left them deliciously plain.

Oh i saw this at the store and thought it was nifty. It teaches you how to make some basic cupcakes and then decorate the hell out of it.

Comment for me please!

My Favorite Videos!

2009-10-17T11:08:00.005-05:00

My fave videos.

(i tried to embed the actual videos on most but some just wont let you)

Ok I am probably the first one to join an "I can't stand Shakira" club. I think with evidence of my repulsion to the sound of her nasal voice streaming across the airwaves, I would soon make president of such a club.

However, I must admit this "She wolf" video is pretty damn good. Shakira really shows off her athleticism in this video. The dances are sexy and the outfits are scandalous but enviable.

Though I would suggest removing that damn "howling" bit in the song. I swear every time she does that it just throws me off of the song for a second. I think, "Did she just howl?!" I know the title is "She Wolf" but I mean really! I get it. I don’t need a pitiful howling sound in the middle of a good hook. Just destroys it.But check it out and tell me if I am way off base.

Here are some of my favorite videos:

Most Girls By Pink

Well i love the dancing, i love the clothing style, but I LOVE THE MENz! Holy sweet Jesus they are so hot.....that's all...there is nothing else that needs to be said. :)

Pleasure Principal-Janet Jackson

I think every man and women has done a couple of moves from this video or at least wanted to.

Mariah Carey-Boy

I love the Japanese flare and the hot asian guys!!!!

Walking On Air-Kerli

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6xi7VY8iDM

So Gothic-Lolita and cool.

Whats it Gonna be-Busta Rhymes and Janet Jackson

Janet is so hot and cool in this video its just ridiculous.

Lovegame-Lady Gaga

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fDwRRZ7eUo

This girl is so damn strange and I swear I like her more because of that fact.

What you waiting for- Gwen Stefani

I dont nescarily like the song that much but I LOVE the video, it s absolutely crazy and filled with colors, and it reminds me that Jonny Depp is doing Alice in Wonderland. YAYYYYYYY! I am so damn excited! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeWsZ2b_pK4

Last but not least the man that made everything possible in music.

Remember the Time- Michael Jackson

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN_uaH-A58o

Everything about this video is just so damn good. The dance is probably my favorite...well besides his hair of course.

Ok thats it

The Perfect Nerd Picnic.

2009-10-12T09:55:00.003-05:00

Writers: Sweetdeesignz.com and The Q

Well as you may or may not know, I am a big closet nerd.

I blend in well with the rest of non-nerd society but underneath my fashionable attire I am a big A-con, anime, video gaming loving, comic book reading, techno freak....I think you get the point.

In case you weren't aware nerds always turn perfectly normal things and effectively nerd it up! Talking to the Q (my main squeeze) one day and we thought about going on a picnic at the lake. Well we started to name off a couple of things we must have if we are going to leave the sanctity of our house and electricity that breathes sweet life into our techno devices. And we came up with a list.

sandwiches,
cold fried chicken, (I like it cold for some reason)
chips and dip,
big thermos of cold juice (cranberry or Cran-Apple)
apple pie
laptops
lawn chairs
Umbrella if location does not have sufficient trees for shade
A long azz extension cord
DS's when we get sick of trying to hack a wifi signal.(Q's idea)
A cooler full of Flavored Ice...because God surely made this wonderful substance.(Q's idea)
camera to take pics of the beautiful scenery ...........and crazy people.(Q's idea)

Any suggestions?

Chase Bank Thinks I am Stupid!

2009-10-09T10:45:00.005-05:00

Chase Bank must think I am an idiot.

But before I get to that let me rant for a second or two.

How in God's sweet name does a company take over another company, a great company at that, and not incorporate the bought out company's major selling points. Chase literally took over Wamu, ignored every quality the company had that set it apart from the rest, and put in place there own crappy features, which I doubt one could really justly call features.

Here are the Chase "features" that have changed:

Checks are no longer complimentary like they were with Wamu.
Checking accounts are no longer free, you now have to make 5 debit purchases or have direct deposit
Savings accounts are no longer easy to get you have to start off with $300 thus defeating the whole saving concept.

But what really drove it home for me is that my bank obviously thinks I am a complete nube.

After waiting for FIVE whole minutes (when you are waiting on service while at the same time watching people who work there purposely ignore your presence as they try and look busy shuffling papers is a long azz annoying time) I was finally called to the sad excuse of an office area. It was more like a desk plopped in the middle of the room. (His name tag says it all)

I ask the guy about the checks.

He pulls up my account and the proceeds to tell me the checks are $18. How he got that out of his mouth without seeing the ludicrous of the statement is beyond me.

Laughing I prepared to get up and tell him "See Ya!" he was like "Wait! I still have some other stuff to tell you about your account."

He proceeded to try and convince me to set up my account for some BS overdraft protection plan. Where I can either make a line of credit (which hurts my credit score) or link my savings to my checking (which AGAIN would completely negate the purpose of a savings account).

So of course I laughed some more and told him I was uninterested. And this man had the gall to actually look over to my boyfriend and basically ask him to talk some sense in me. Well he was a little shocked when we both laughed in his face and walked out calling him a creepy loser.

Chase Bank is retarded if they think that insulting a customer's intelligence is going to sell them on a service.

Leave me a comment if you agree or disagree.

Dog food in your fridge!!!

2009-10-05T01:43:00.009-05:00

Ok I love my dogs I really do...but let’s just say I have a certain degree of love. I have bought my dogs Christmas chew toys and I even went so far as to buy them their own doggy Christmas stocking to put said chewy in. However, with all my love & affection for my four legged creature I don't think I am as devoted as some people are. Where I have affection for my canine friends some people have all out LOVE.

Minding my own business, with camera in hand, I was walking down the pet aisle in the local Tom Thumb grocery store. I took the Pet aisle to make a direct pathway to the freezer section that holds my favorite...TURKEY BALLS! (I love those things!)

Just about to lock on to my target I catch something out of the corner of my eye. Something odd, something that one doesn't usually find in a pet aisle, and more importantly something cold.

(click on image for better view, I have no idea why its so fuzzy)
A pet food freezer section.

I would have never guessed it. Never in all my life would I have guessed there was a demand for frozen/refrigerated pet food. I thought canned dog food was the extent of the pet food market.

And this crap wasn’t cheap either!

Now just to let you know I have had dogs all my life, I know pretty much everything about them. And I know that my dogs would go through that food in three days, TOPS. I also know that my dogs would never eat cold food. A sniff and a "what-do-you-want me-to do-with-this" stare would be all I receive.

If any one knows anything more about this "frozen dog food" conundrum please feel free to inform me.

Becoming Japanese

2009-10-01T09:03:00.012-05:00

I have come to a decision. I must go to Japan. This isn't just a passing thought or a whimsical declaration of one's wishes, I am dead serious on this. The idea of living my whole life without the opportunity to run around Japan like a crazed American is a scary thought.

1.) I want to eat weird Japanese seafood.

(this video is so dry and funny, I am not even sure if it is meant to be funny)

2.) Experience first hand random Japanese commercials.

3.) Try insane Japanese products.
(crazy double eyelid glue that gives you anime eyes. So freaky!)

(Found this at my fave site, http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/DAI273 )

4.) Spend all my money on useless anime figurines, loads of manga and anime.

5.) Gawk and swoon over Japanese fashion.

(found this pic at some site...obviously i forgot the site. DON'T SUE ME!!)

6.) And most importantly laugh hysterically at Japanese rap.

Now that my goal is set and my travel-must-do checklist is complete, all I need is money.

I am thinking of setting up a PayPal donation button.
With some sort of slogan that will pull at the heartstrings of many of my friends and readers that will undoubtedly force them to donate:
"Please give me money to live out my dreams," or
"Donate and see a girl's dream come true" or
"Just think how good you will feel when you watch me go have fun!"

Think about it.
