No Turning Back

LOL

Saw this commercial the other night and laughed out loud. I admit it; I'm a fan of the Hills. I am not obsessed but I will watch it with a grain of salt, of course.

Pictures Are Worth a Friday Five

I was planning to do this Friday 5 last week, but time escaped me. I've actually been pretty busy at work, which is a good thing. It's temporary, but I'm almost thankful because it makes the days go by so much faster. 

So here are 5 pictures I saw online last week (and I swapped out one for a new one this week, to keep up to date). These are just pictures that I saw, liked, and wanted to remember. 

 
1. This happened a couple weeks ago, but I keep forgetting to blog about it. Did anyone else see Johnny Depp at the MTV Movie Awards? I only saw parts of it as I was flipping around channels. I am not into the whole Pirates of the Caribbean thing, and I am not a fan of him in that movie. But I thought he looked so cool when he was accepting his awards. Not necessarily hot, not necessarily funny, not necessarily exciting. But the dude just exuded coolness. Love him.

2. David Beckham came out with a new ad campaign for Emporio Armani underwear this month. Thank. You. Armani.

3. This one from the lolcats was just too damn cute. I'll take the hugs where I can get them.

4. I frequent the Pop Candy website, and this image for the reader mail made me chuckle. I loved Mr. McFeely. Though saying that now as an adult has a whole new connotation than when I was a kid. Speedy delivery!

5. And this one is just for me. I know, I'm obsessed. But there are worse habits to have. Deal.

Have a fantastic weekend! I'm going to try to make it to A Taste of Rochester, weather permitting.  What are you doing?

A Mosaic for You About Me

In a recent post, NPW did two things: she made her first Flickr mosaic, and inspired me to do the same! So here's how you do it.

a. Type your answer to each of the questions below into Flickr search.
b. Using only the first page, pick an image.
c. Copy and paste each of the URLs for the images into fd’s mosaic maker.

1. What is your first name?
2. What is your favorite food?
3. What high school did you go to?
4. What is your favorite color?
5. Who is your celebrity crush?
6. Favorite drink?
7. Dream vacation?
8. Favorite dessert?
9. What you want to be when you grow up?
10. What do you love most in life?
11. One word to describe you.
12. Your flickr name.

I am happy with all of them except the last one. I only had one picture to choose from. And #11 did not want to share with the mosaic tool, which is just as well, since I couldn't decide on one word for me.

And I will also award super friend/blogger points to anyone who knows who #5 is. Mrrawr.

Iz Be Around

Oh dear KK, don't worry. I've been around. I've been keeping tabs on most of you out there. I've been in the process of moving over to another blog service. I enjoy TypePad a lot, but am exploring other options too. Stay tuned.

Olé!

It's funny how things turn out. When I started this blog, I expected, better yet assumed, that it would be about me telling you stuff. Me teaching you stuff. Me spilling my guts, my heart, and my brain to you.

Lately I feel like I'm using this big old blogsphere as an advice forum. So in this entry...

Tonight I spontaneously cleaned out a lot of food from my pantry. I'm talking food that I know has been there more than 5 years. It was pretty much just canned goods, boxed cake mixes that I never got around to making, stuff like that.

During this cleaning process, I found 4 jars of salsa. Four jars of salsa. I'd like to chalk off one or even two of those to the fact that they were hidden behind other things and I couldn't see that I already had some. But clearly, clearly I was over-salsa-ed. And it's not like I even eat a lot of salsa at home. It's a pretty rare thing actually.

So my question to you:
Um, and, um, if there's no expiration date on the salsa, does that mean it's still okay to eat? I was a little surprised there wasn't some kind of expiration date on any of those jars.

Or it means there is so many preservatives and/or salt that it will never go bad. Ew.

Update (6/18/08): I threw it all out. No need to take chances like that. I forgot to mention that I also found a jar of queso too. No chance I'd eat that if it's been sitting around longer than a week! Double. Ew.
