Greek Party Result

I'm finally back to work today. After a very blurry drunk 4 day weekend, i have the strength to post up some of the photos from the greek party. Unfortunately, because i was so wasted, i never got a good full photo of my entire outfit. But here is Paul in his great complete glory~

of course double fisting his drink and mine. Red bull and sugar free vodka. His drink of choice. but i drink it cause hey! its alcohol. Like the big wine glasses? i am pretty sure they are actually decoration wine glasses that people might put something like a fish in, but i bought them at the thrift store for $2 each. How do you NOT drink out of that? Heres my costume below to get an idea of what i made. My sister is next to me, she's Medusa~




Yeah, that face i'm making? I make that face a lot. Porque? I dont know. its a drunk thing i do. Its my own personal version of the "lip pucker face". (I personally think its better than the guido lip pucker face) And see how i'm holding my drink like so? another drunk thing i do. I show my drink in the photo. WHY?! I want to hire someone to stand around me and if i start opening my mouth or raising my arm, they'd come up to me like a bouncer and tell me that its simply not allowed. Atleast not for all 150 photos. maybe 4 or 5, but never consecutively. There would be rules and regulations.

1) i am not allowed to raise my glass in every photo

2) my "smile" can't be me opening my mouth looking like i'm about to yell "HHHEEEYYY!!" and you snapped the photo right at the peak of the word.

3) i cannot substitute this constant face pose for ANOTHER constant face pose

4) and last, if i do have 200+ photos of me making the same face, i am not allowed to post them all on facebook.

now i just need to hire someone to enforce these rules while i'm plastered out of my mind.

Since we cant be naked in public...


Tonight is the greek party that me, my sister, and Paul have been planning since fucking forever. For a few days i've been working on my costume AND Paul's.


Lemme tell ya something about us...we take our parties seriously. Everyone else might treat it like some frat toga party, but we have picked Gods. He is Zeus and i of course is his main woman Hera. I was going to be Hermes, but Paul didnt understand the concept of me being a "duuuude" instead of a high ruling Goddess by his side. Isnt it the girl who's supposed to want to "couple" with their significant other when it comes to costumes? Now no one will know specifically who i am cause i'll just look like i'm wearing a Leg Avenue Goddess costume instead of being distinctive and have wings on my feet. But my costume did come out sweet. My sister is Medusa and our friends have chosen Achilles, Apollo, and some others i can't rememeber. This is Pauls costume to the right made from scratch. Ok, so its nothing prize worthy, but its better than some of the costumes that we've seen online. and i put so much love into this! Of course, we're going to powder his hair and beard white tonight. Oh, and did i mention that this is hand sewn? you can kind of tell that Paul's apartment is small and there is no room and no chance of sewing with a sewing machine any where except the floor which is that little space right behind him thats also in front of his kitchen sink. yeah...small.
Tonight, many much moosen photos will be taken and i'll post them tomorrow. or after the hangover stops.

Starting this off with a WTF i've encountered

I was at Wegmans shopping with my boyfriend a couple of weeks ago. We finished and i go to sit in the car while he goes to put the cart away cause we arent inconsiderate asses who just leave their carts to fly everywhere when the spot to put away the carts are only 2 parking spots away. Ok ok, i've been guilty of leaving a cart here or there, but its absolutely absurd when you watch someone who had parked next to the cart spot and they just leave their cart in the MIDDLE OF THE ROAD without atleast having the decency to atleast put it where there are no cars driving. (true example)

anywho, i sit there and look up and what do i see? a bird. wait, wait, just follow me here. I know what youre thinking, "a bird? so what!" but this was not the usual pigeon or seagull that usually infest our parking lots. This was a genuine African Gray Parrot sitting inside the persons car, chilling on their steering wheel.


I've never seen this before. Now, i dont think this was stupid for the person to love their animal so much to bring it out with them. Kudos to that bird. But I'm trying to think over the logic. People bring their dogs out all the time because dogs enjoy being out, they want to spend time with their owner, and (in most cases) they aren't going to go back home to be caged in a 5x5 ft area. Did the owner bring their bird so it wouldn't get a case of cabin fever? Hopefully this bird is the type that sits on an open perch in the middle of the living room and no the type that gets enslaved in a cage while the owner, (which i can imagine is probably an elder lady) sits, sips tea, and knits her grandchildren sweaters they will never wear, but will keep in their closets forever because when "salvation army" day comes, they can't shake the feeling of guilt off the sweater.
But i will say, i am curious to see other animals to be able to feel the freedom of sitting in the car while their owner goes shopping. Maybe a cat? a fish? a bearded dragon? the anticipation...
