while i'm in here

i always find it highly invasive to look into a person's shower while using their bathroom. it seems like such a personal thing to see: what shampoo they use (garnier fructisse is by far the most popular shampoo among my circle of friends), what kind of razor, whether or not they skimp on face soap, are they a washcloth or loofah type of person. these are the kinds of things i think about while i take a shit in your bathroom.

life is short. have an affair.

i stumbled upon a website that i can't believe even exists. http://www.ashleymadison.com. the whole premise is to assist you in having a discreet extramarital affair. people actually pay for this shit. wtf? what happened to the good old days when people ran the risk of making a pass on a taken person and not knowing whether or not they would be responsive to the idea of having an affair? this takes all the (hypothetical) excitement out of cheating.

if we're talking fashion...

i don't get why people follow the sartorialist. i personally am not impressed by their "design influence" or the styles they take photos of. i guess if i were a rich, uppercrust socialite i'd understand the appeal of looking at other rich, uppercrust socialites. but since i'm not, the facehunter blog works for me. facehunter has a more proletariat approach to fashion and hosts pictures of street people as well as rich people with more emphasis on creativity and color scheme than the sartorialist, which seems so sectarian in their choice of people and style.

the sartorialist is taking photographs of people who shop at barneys, whereas facehunter is taking photographs of the people who inspire the designers who put their clothes in barneys.

the bret michaels hair conspiracy

i can't believe i'm even blogging about this, but as an admitted fan of the rock of love show for the past 3 seasons (shut it), i found it odd that i'd never seen bret michaels without a bandana or hat, which lead me to wonder... is the guy bald? i did a little research online and found that several forums have addressed the same question. most people seem to agree that he's bald, or balding at least.

i decided then to do a google image search for him and see if i caught any photos of him without his bandana or hat and found this little gem:
(note: i'm not really sure if it's real but i can imagine this might be what it looks like under that bandana)




which made me think of THIS:



although, to be honest, riff raff has more sex appeal than bret michaels.

simple yet dreamy.

oh, lelaina

you have THE perfect hair.

i realized something today

i’m the type of person who, when entering an empty elevator, will press the “close door” button in a frenzy so that the person I hear approaching will miss it.

it rarely works, though. my mom told me once that the only reason the “close door” button is there is to placate people and make them think they have some little bit of control. but, in elevators, there is no control.
