She won't forsake me

Things That Are Bad for Krissy

- Hallmark and their Product (Red) line: I went into Hallmark today to pick up a couple of birthday cards for my friends. Of course I get distracted by fun, shiny, colorful things and there was a huge wall full of fun, shiny colorful things, namely Hallmark's Product (Red) line of cards. I'm all about supporting a good cause (I have a pretty red iPod, yo! It's shiny and good for charity!), so I start perusing the cards. Dude! There are so many great cards! not only did I find my birthday cards, but I found cards for my BFF Em and The Boy. I had to stop myself from buying cards for my other BFFs and my mom and my sister and my staff and my classmates and....

While it's a good thing that Hallmark is happy and shiny and full of things that make me squeal, my checking account may suffer, so I had to exerise a little self-control. Although I will be coming back come payday for a set of Product (Red) cards to hand out to my staff.

- iTunes and my new-found obsession with 90s music: I love my iPod. And I loooove iTunes. I love perusing the categories and discovering new music and new mixes and rediscovering new songs. I've been on a 90s kick lately. I rediscovered Sister Hazel and a couple of songs from high school by the Goo Good Dolls and Everclear. Then last night I got a song by Shania Twain stuck in my head. So onto iTunes I went and two minutes later--voila! I had her Come On Over CD blasting from my computer. Oh, iTunes, how I love thee! And how I love how you're good for the environment and my cluttery ways. However, again, like Hallmark, you may not be so good for the checking account. So, Krissy--NO MORE iTUNES UNTIL MADONNA'S CD COMES OUT.

Boo.

- Rock of Love 2: I love trashy t.v. I make no apologies. And this show about a bunch of stripper and stripper wannabes who are vying for the heart of an over-the-hill rockstar is about as trashy--and good!--as it gets. I actually like Bret Michaels. I think as far as rockstars go, there are far skeezier people and at times he comes across as semi-genuine. The girls who were after him, however? Dude. Some of them looked like dudes. And some were walking encyclopedias of STDs. And the finale? With Daisy-the-Stripper vs. Ambre-the-Sane-One? Priceless! I was hooked all season and so when it came time for Bret to name his Rock of Love I held my breath. And thank GOD he chose Ambre. It's good to know that sometimes guys think with the right head.

- Pudding Pops: I have a cold/sore throat/I sound like a phone sex operator because I'm losing my voice. And yet tonight when I saw pudding pops in the freezer section? I had to have them. While they may not help the phlegm or sinus infection, they did ease my sore throat for a minute. And really right now that's all that matters.

Ciao, dahling!
