Bo on the Daily Show

now...i've been a proponent of bo bice this whole time. excusing his bad fashion sense (technically you CAN wear denim on denim as long as the pieces are different denim colors) his corey hart fashion sense (i wear my sunglasses at night) and his stupid hippie sense (flip flops? ugh!)

HOWEVER,

i saw him on jon stewarts' show last night and i just can't forgive him. why?

1. he was wearing flip flops, yet again! i can understand wearing these while living in LA and being caught "maybe" on Idol in the little video packages of Bo's casual down time...but bo! National TV! Jon Stewart TV! Discerning Audience TV! you do not wear flip flops for a guest spot on the Daily Show, especially in early june in NYC.

2. hippie shirt unbuttoned to his navel with giant hippie cross thing and purposely ripped and torn jeans...i have no words other than GROSS.

3. the pony tail hair dent. dude, if you're gonna wear your locks in a pony tail and then appear on national TV with a discerning audience...at least get the make-up lady to spray and then blow out your hair to get rid of that thing.

4. and perhaps the most damaging of all...his inability to match wit with Mr. Jon Stewart (love of my life, among other things). you JUST DON'T go on Jon's show and TRY to be as funny or funnier than him. it was just horrible, horrible TV. i cringed the first time. and then surprise, i was up at 2am when they do the replay and was even more embarrassed for him the second time.

maybe misty was right.

Grand Theft Update

so, about 8 years ago, i worked with my best east coast friend, karen, and one night after work, she went to the supermarket and came home to find her apartment complex on fire and, while the fire was not actually IN her apartment, found her apartment trashed by the fire department as they decided to use her apartment as an entry way to put out the fire next store. in other words, not only was her stuff damaged by smoke and fire, but was also watered damaged. she DID NOT have renters insurance and pretty much lost everything. the next day our entire office went out and bought insurance, and since then, i have always had it.

i will get my laptop replaced with the latest model. i will get my ipod replaced and oh, here's a real update...my digital camera. replaced.

its hard to explain, but i am not particularly upset. i'm more inconvienced. granted i had every picture i had taken in the last 2 years on my computer...but whatever. granted i had just finished transferring my remaining 50 CD's the day before AND had purchsed DFA1979 and the new System of a Down from iTunes and, naturally, didn't transfer those to a disk yet...but oh, well. and my camera? well...i was working with a little 2.0 megapixel action and was in need of an upgrade.

what is more problematic, is how to get back my sense of security, living alone in an apartment that i now know can be accessed? and of course, coming home from being out and expecting the rest of my stuff to be gone. shutting all my curtains because someone could be out there!

the cops say that a large percentage of robberies are made by people who actually know you. huh. that's interesting. i don't want to think about that.

I Am So Over School

I went to my first class last tuesday and i am supposed to have a 500 word essay ready to hand in, and since i am ms. procrastinator i hadn't yet written my essay when my laptop was stolen. so i approach the teacher right when i get in and take her aside and tell her that i do not have my paper with me because my house was robbed on sunday (robbed sounds so dramatic!) and that my (theoretical) paper was on my laptop and would i be able to email it to her the next day after i recreate it and then get to the computer lab to do this. she says, yeah that's fine. do you have a copy of the police report? and i just looked at her and said, uh, yeah? do you want to see it? she says, yes. WTF!?!

hate her. hate school (for making me write dumbass papers). so over it.
