Why contact gods why ??

Dear Gods of the Contacts,

Seriously, could you not have assessed my work schedule for the upcoming week before you decided to let me close my LAST left contact in the case last night, allowing me to rip half of it off. ANY other week this would be fine as I am usually off tomorrow, however THIS week I am in overtime hell. Starting tomorrow I will be at work from 6:50 am till 10pm, this will last till next Sunday. Yes I own glasses so this is not a HUGE disaster. But I hate my glasses, and Mimi ate them when she was a baby (yes I know, i should buy new glasses....read on to see why I most likely have yet to do so..) so they give me a headache.... other than the headache bit, I loathe wearing my glasses I ONLY wear them at night when I have taken my contacts out. I had to start wearing glasses at birth, I am over them. Pretty much being stuck wearing my glasses for a week is the equivalent of wearing really ugly clothes for me. Not people reading this who regularly wear glasses, put down your weapons. I don't hate glasses for all, just for me.

So please Contact Gods, check my Kate Spade day planner next time, honestly...

Why I love my friends.....

In June prior to LJKC's wedding a movie was watched....the movie was called Teeth (if you have yet to see it, rent it, but before you do PLEASE read the synopsis, for I don't want to be responsible.....)

Well after watching the movie wonderful dinner discussions and songs were created on the topic of vagina dentada..... also sparking me to find this Sew-on Vagina Dentata Patch on etsy (see below). And posting it on LH's facebook asking if she would like this as a festivus gift...... thus bringing about the following conversation....

kmk:ummm i was thinking of getting you this for Christmas.....

lh:Huh. Now I'm trying to figure out where it would go. I'm thinking it would make a sweet lapel pin.

kmk:its a GREAT conversation piece....

lh:Good call! I bet it would vastly improve my social life if I were to sit by myself in a bar, order tequila, sit there stroking it, and then sniff my fingers while making purposeful yet indiscriminate eye contact with everyone in the room.

kmk:the above comment is why you are my friend....

lh:Yes, it's a filthy job that you are perfectly suited for.

kmk:i just used this for a blog entry

i love my friends

A look back to sunday..... Oh and GO VOTE TODAY !



I had intended to post this on Sunday but got distracted and am just now uploading the photos on Sunday JGra and I headed to the Obama Rally at the amphitheater with special guest Jimmy Buffett ! Despite the rain there was a great turnout and we had a blast ! It was a good way to show our support and spend a cold Sunday !

oh the times they are a changing....

Today I was very driven to cut all of my hair off. Like ALL off. Despite her AWFUL taste in men.... I am currently in LOAF with Katie Holmes hair cut....

I love love love this look. However short hair like this tends to scare me, not because I don't think it will look right on me, I actually look really good with short hair (vanity what ?). What I fear is a bad stylist.... a short trendy cut like that can turn me in to Ellen real quick (or trent reznor, ask LJKC) and force me into a life of bandannas and cute headbands. After a very long debate (slash argument) with JGra and talking to my mom (who did her job in reminding me that I reminded her to remind me when I go to cut my hair off that I like it long) I decided that while yes I enjoy long hair on EVERYONE else, long hair is not best suited for me. So with this decision made I will be waiting till my trip home to Philly in November, where Ms.LEB will accompany me to the chopshop to my fave stylist and oversee said cut. In the meantime I am prepping myself, tomorrow it goes to right below my ears...... hey it's only hair.

"Step by step, heart to heart, left, right, left,we all fall down,like toy soldiers...

Few people are lucky enough to have 1 great girlfriend. I on the other hand am lucky enough to have more than that 1. This weeks featured friend is one of those great girls, LJK(recently added a C (yeah)) has been a friend for many a year. I was fortunate enough to meet LJK while working at a lill' shop called Zebop. Honestly it was the best job ever, we played whatever music we wanted(LJ was the QUEEN of amazing mix tapes, also our boss got tipsy and ordered the lifetime 80's collection so we had LOTS to pick from) dressed up in the redic clothing our owners ordered, made up dance routines and chatted about life, a lot. Pretty much we got paid for chatting and sometimes ringing up hemp necklaces and laughing at people trying on clothing. Other that the best job ever, I gained one of my best friends. LJ is an amazing person, she seriously bleeds good from her soul. I have so many memories with this lady. I am proud to say I was with LJ the first time she tried sushi, we had gone shopping all day and got take out from cape orient..... LJ is, in case you didn't know a HUGE fan of condiments.... so upon seeing the sushi plate popped the ENTIRE ball of wasabi in her mouth...love her.... I also would like to take CLAIM on a few things... this lovely lady used to mock my Lilly dresses and Vera b. bags....just a note...I really could go on for days with stories and memories.....like how when she worked at exit 0 we would sit on the floor and listen to The Juliana Theory and plot my marriage to Keith... I also remember the first time I met her future hubby at a diner in NYC, it was obvious to see that they were perfect together, and so happy (ps they also had the best wedding ever) I'm so proud for LJKC and for what she has achieved, she is a beautiful woman with an wonderful life. Her spirit is stupendous, she has always put her friends in the highest places. She is one of theose people that make you happy just being around them (she made me walk around NYC for a day looking for noodle hut, and while my feel hurt as we walked from one end of the city to the other, it was the best day I have enver spent in NYC) Also for anyone reading this who doesn't know her she has the best laugh in the world, no I am not kidding you..the world. My memories with her are some of my best, and they make me smile and tear up as I write this (cheese ball I know)I wish her the best and love her with all my heart. Cheers to you LJKC !
The Interview.......
1) Who are you ? ljkc - monogrammer extraordinaire!
Faves

b)book "The Giver" by Lois Lowry. (note from kmk: once LJKC kidnapped my exbf bc he agreed he loved this book, she took him shopping and bought me a stuffed black cat to replace my live black cat, JEF and I found them at the house after work drink woodchuck cider discussing the book)
c)movie "I am Sam" - if you've never seen it, rent it immediately. Actually, just go and straight-up BUY it - you should own it. All of you.

Happy Hallo-Pug a few days late

After being sad about not having trick-o-treaters I decided to take the pugs into the action....



only to discover that we are to early for trick-o-treaters. That or they just don't exist anymore, along with most of my favorite Halloween movies that I can't find anymore. So we may have not found trick-o-treaters, but we did have a very nice walk.
