Here's the soundtrack peeps...
1. Ice Cream--Sarah McLachlan
Ok, call me naive, but I didn't really know what the hell this song was about until like a year ago. eeeewwwww. No wonder the Lilith Fair cowd got all crazazy when she sang it. I just thought it was a fun sing a long song! Well I guess that says a lot about me. I'll shut up now.
2. P.Y.T--Michael Jackson
Loved the song when I was 7...still rock out to it. I mean with words like "Tenderoni" you gotta wonder what MJ is really singing about. I don't care, it seriously rocks hardcore.
3. Giving him Something he can feel--EnVogue
I miss EnVogue! They were so fierce. I remember I was a freshman in HS when this song came out... I would totally stand on the chair in my room and perform it in the mirror. Full on Supremes Diva mode too. So awesome!
4. Rich Girl--Gwen Stefani
Superior Mother Goddess Gwen. Does she ever do a BAD song?
5. I've Got My Mind Set on You--George Harrison
One of those songs your parents liked and you secretly rock out to. Well for me anyway. I remember the video kinda creeped me out a bit.

The Liberation of Fierce
I have been liberated. 10lbs of hair...gone. Fierce bob, looking awesome, totally loving it. So let's dance...
1. Twist and Shout---Beatles
Ferris Bueller on the float. I love it because when it's played at weddings all the drunk people do the same crazazy dance to it. Like when preschoolers jump up and down to the Spongebob Squarepants song.
2. The Sign---Ace of Base
Reggae, swedish, awesome. 2nd AOB song this week! My Ipod is on to something.
3. Love Fool---The Cardigans
More swedish awesomeness. If you weren't rocking out to this song in your crappy ass car in 1998, I'm gonna call you a liar.
4. Look at Me---Geri Halliwell
Yes, I own this CD. It's SO camp, like B-52s camp. I love that she makes money off of not taking herself too seriously.
5. End of the Road---Boyz II Men
We all busted out like Wanya with out hairbrush in hand...admit it.
Nothing new in my life, sorry to say. Snowing. Really the highlight so far is this awesome new 'do.
Oh I know what I wanted to talk about...
Britney. OMG! I read her parent's declarations to the court yesterday and I seriously started crying. This whole situation is nothing like it seems. Poor girl. Nobody deserves that. At ths point I don't even care if she's ever famous again. I just want her to get her life back and be healthy.
Anyways. Hope nobody is too wasted after Mardi Gras. In bed by 9pm, because that's how I roll bitches.
Later!

Getting Jiggy
Here's the Mardi Gras Mix:
Straight Up--Paula Abdul
What a fierce song. I am loving it. I totally worked this song like a supermodel when I was 11 in Jazz class. From 1989-1990 she was my hero. I was even transforemd into a squealing 10 year old when she performed at the SuperBowl...I know...you don't hafta tell me...l-o-s-e-r
I hate everything about you---Ugly Kid Joe
I LOVED this album when it came out. With such ditties as Whiplash Liquor and Madman. It's a great song when you're pissed off. Or you're on the treadmill and you imagine your High School nemesis and hope she's fat...ok, maybe that's just me. But you know what I mean.
Irreplaceable-- Beyonce
This song KILLS. It's currently the fantasy I have about throwing out Fugs. I throw his crap into the yard and go into full on strong black woman mode and tell him what's up. ahhh...dreams.
The boots were made for Walking--Nancy Sinatra (NOT JESSICA SIMPSON)
Again an empowering song, that I wish I could act out in real life. So I'll just dance around the house like I'm that awesome.
Other Side of the World- KT Tunstal
Seriously the only artist I have been REALLY excited about in like 5 years. She's wicked hardcore.
What a dumb ass day. Another 27ft of snow predicted for Chicago. Seriously sucks ass. I'm in that inert state of blah you get in when you're a bundle of emotion and you just don't know which one to pick, so I pick nothing.
Oh some slag over at CM got on her hi-horse and told me I was in "denial" about Fug's "cheating". Did you spit coffee out of your nose too just now? It's not what she said that pissed me off, it was the condescending tone of her comment like I was some kind of dumbass or something. I have Fugs so dialed in that he would have to be fucking Batman to get someting over on me. And who would want an affair with that hot mess??? I don't exactly see a line wrapped around the house. Then she carefully defined the word "mimbo" for me quoting...DAN CORTESE. Yup the MTV Sports dude. Last time I checked I used the term correctly in the sentence and I was quoting SEINFELD.
And yes, I deleted her shit. Not because of content just because of stupidity. Don't go preachy preachy when you don't have a clue. Ick.
Also yes, I'm too passive agressive to confront her directly. I'm a bitchy coward like that. And I'm not interested in b.s. like cyber fighting with someon I don't even care to know.
I'll cyber-fight with Heather. Bitch read my post yesterday, or someone told her about it...KRYS???? So she fired back an email. I'm surprised she even knows how to turn a computer on. Pretty funny read. At least she has a sense of humor. She knew I was kidding.
Well happy Mardi Gras to y'all. Show yer boobs and get lotsa beads. I gotta go vote for my Chocolate Hotness Obama ;)
Peace Out.

Let's get this party started.
Music, Professor?
1. Don't Turn Around--Ace of Base
LURRRV it. Anybody ever notice that they write mulitple track to the same pre-fab keyboard reggae beat? That's just genius. But if they won a grammy who would get it? #5 Reggae from Casio?
2. Paper and Fire-- John Mellencamp
I'm a closet fan of his. And for whatever reason when the girls are whiny his music soothes them. They'll probably grow up to be tube top wearin', PBR swillin', Nascar Watchin', Pick-up driving babes. But for now it quiets them and provided me with a lil bit of sanity.
3. Stuck in the Middle with You--Steve Miller Band
Since Reservoir Dogs (cliche!) I have loved this song.
4. Rock your body--Justin Timberlake
Hands Down the ONLY song I will stop in the middle of whatever I am doing and seriously bust a major move. I even got into a car accident because of this stupid song. It also got me a restraining order, because I began stalking JT shortly after it came out.
5. Sweet Surrender-- Sarah McLachlan
Man, angst be thy name in 1997, huh? Jeez, I was depressed about something! I lived and breathed for this Lilith Fair shit. I needed to WAY lighten up.
Ok onto the news of the day...
Superbowl sucked donkey balls. The ONLY funny commercial was the Pigeon one Fed Ex did. Everything was a bit pedestrian.
Also I got the latest issue of Skate magazine yesterday, and I brought it with me to read at work while nobody came in to buy ugly-ass furniture. I open the cover only to have that skank-ass f'ug Lindsay staring back at me. Bitch got a boot endorsement with Sp-Teri! WTF??? You mean to tell me that they want THAT hocking boots? Didn't she get like 42nd at worlds? I would have place higher wearing moon-boots for pete's sake.
"If you want to land cheated jumps, embarrass your country, and be completely overrated wear Sp-Teri"
Then the picture of her holding her gold medal from the year 2000! WTF? Her JUNIOR medal. I won lotsa medals then too. SENIOR medals. Guess retiring and getting a life was the wrong call.
Damn Bitches.
So I turn the page and who's hocking Harlick's????
Shit for Brains Heather and that 15 ( okay..he's like 21...sorry!) year old boy she pays to skate with her. Well, personally I have to give mad props because she is a FAB skater and has more world championship medals than GOD. It just irks me to death.
"If you want to spend your whole life teaching in the rink your parents bought for you and pay guys to skate with you...wear Harlicks."
Dude, I wore harlicks. So in all fairness here's what my ad would say...
"Quit at the top of your game, then HATE on EVERYONE...wear Harlicks"
Picture of me flipping off the camera wearing my old medals...nude.
That'll scare 'em.
Bitches.
Now The Weather...
W-to the-T to the F. Snow, Snow, Thunderstorm, Rain, Snow. That move to California could not come fast enough. At least when the earthquale and mudslides hit i'll have a bitchin tan!
And finally, randomness...
I keep dreaming about John Mayer! WTH??? I only like ONE of his songs? Why am I having dreams about him EVERY SINGLE NIGHT!!! I'm about to see a doctor about this.
Happy Monday to everyone!
Word to yo' mutha!

Nerdy McDorkerton...Right here!
Before I go on about my weekend awesomeness, let's have a little bit of music this fine Sunday morning!
1. Another one Bites the Dust--Queen
Is there anybody more fierce than Freddy Mercury??? He makes shooting up the place sound zexy and vamp.
2. Into the Groove--Madonna
Not one of my Madge faves, but it's danceable. I just remember when Kids Incorporated did this song in 1987 they had to change the lyrics because it was "racy" hehehehe.
3. Pretty Fly for a White Guy-- The Offspring
I don't know why I have this song on the ol' Ipod. It's cheeky and fun enough though. Their sound is a bit grating to me...
4. The trouble with love is--- Kelly Clarkson
Awww. Kelly before she got all fat and crazy. Good song, you can tell she didn't write it.
5. Lonestar---Norah Jones
LOVE Norah Jones. This song to me is the quintessential campfire song.
Ok onto the news of the day.
So with the family being gone yesterday I had the opportunity to actually DO something last night and sleep in this morning. Did I???
Nope.
After spending the whole day annoying Jenny about whether I should go shopping after work, go out for drinks, or stay hope and get some rest, I decided to stay home. I got a good bottle of merlot and was going to order our some awesome expensive take-out from Chinns.
So I get home, settle down to place my order, and as I'm selecting my Blue Points and Ahi, the 2nd glass of Merlot kicked in and I was like "why am I going to spend $60 on dinner when I have perfectly good french fries and chicken nuggets in the freezer?"
Yes, I am a loser.
Popped the frozen goodness in the oven, and in looking at the browser history on the 'puter this morning, you can tell that as the Merlot flowed, my surfing choices got stranger and stranger. Long story short, I somehow ended up on the Church of Scientology's website. I know! Now all of the Thetans are gonna be pounding on my door trying to get me to drink Vitamin Water and worship Tom Cruise. How the hell am I gonna explain THAT to Fugs???
So after freaking myself out with that, I sat down with the uber awesome cuisine I cooked for myself and decided to rent a movie. I rented Superbad. So there's me. Snarfing kiddie food, drinking wine, and watching a teen comedy, in bed by 8:58pm on the first night I've had to myself in months.
If you want to hang out with this kind of awesomeness next time, the line forms over there.
Well, gotta get ready to go to work. Time for me to help rich people explore their bad taste in furniture. I love it when they ask for my opinion... they don't know I worship at the house of IKEA.
Hapy Superbowl Sunday! Go Giants!

ok, fine! So I AM Evil!!
Soundtrack???
1. Juicy- Better than Ezra
If I were a stripper, this would be my song. Because I could be naked and the song would be my ironic T-shirt.
2. Get Right--J Lo feat Fab--spells it different--lous
Love all things JLo, but you KNEW that!
3. Honky Cat--Elton John
Really the best song from my alter ego, EJ.
4. Work It- Missy Elliot
She is just BRILLZ. I think she is a genius.
5. In Our Lifetime- Texas
Again, a Brit band that I can't believe didn't hit it big here. One of the few CDs that you can listen to the whole thing and groove the entire time.
Yes, sometimes evil genius strikes and I revel in it...
And yes, the handbasket is still decorated so I know where I'm going...
Let me start off by saying that while I'm pretty liberal about nudity and sexytime whatever consenting adults wanna do that is legal is no problem with me. I have my own views, but I don't impose them on other people...
except my husband.
I HATE that he loves looking at other boobies. It seriously hurts my feelings. I'm insecure enough as it is, I don't need to compete with 19 year olds with DDs. I have voiced my feelings and he has justr moved from doing it blatantly to hiding it. Whatever. Maybe I should start admiring young ding-dongs in my spare time...but that's gross.
Anyhoo--I discovered last night that from the kitchen table, if I look into the glass door on the entertainment center, I can see the whole computer screen in the office via freaky reflection.
hehehehe,
This morning I'm eating my waffles (since my bad body-image has me eating nothing but frozen waffles, peanut butter and diet coke) and I see him check to see if the coast is clear, he thinks it is, then he logs onto boobies.com.
I start laughing hysterically and he quickly minimizes it.
I'll laugh all day about it. Sneaky booby looker!

Nope not a post about Britney...yet!
Oh, It's coming.... because you know me and the Britster...
First Thursday's soundtrack:
1. Wild, Wild, West ---Escape Club
This song kicks so much ass. It makes no sense, but I love it anyway. Australians love a good rock song with dumb lyrics.
2. Autobiography--- Ashlee Simpson
Don't judge me! She's a hell of a lot better than her sister. And say what you want, this is a great song.
3. Queer--- Garbage
1998 Anyone? Great "vamp" song. You can totally get your supermodel walk on to this.
4. Hazy Shade of Winter---Bangles
A good song because it's chicks rocking without that Susanna Hoffs singing.
5. She's Electric---Oasis
In my opinion, their best song. It's got their own sound and great lyrics. Nt that Beatles wannabe crap they tried to sell america 10 years ago.
Ok, I already posted this on CafeMom. If you've read it there just back-click and wait for the post on Britney.
Below I have posted an article that just about made me hurl my waffles. I don't tend to get on my hi-horse about much, because I'm relatively shallow, but this just makes my blood boil.
Dare I say, it even makes me feel like a feminist. My decision to become a lawyer is rooted in situations like this one. I can't speak for your community,but here in Dupage County, IL if a woman needs to get away from an abusive spouse or situation, the resources are next to nil. We have a service that will help you obtain a restraining order, and give you a list of shelters and lawyers. That's about it.
While some would argue that at least it's something, I think there is a huge demographic missing a helping hand. Personified by the disappearance of both Stacy Pertson and Lisa Stebic. In my opinion the middle class are desperately under-served socially. Long story short, because I could go on for days about this, women in the income bracket of 50K-75K are most at risk of dying by the hands of their spouse.
Why? Because in these households, a compelling percentage of them are one income, multi children ones. Women abused in this dynamic are not employed and probably have not been employed for at least 2 years, have 2 children under the age of 5, have no control over the finances, and have been isolated to the point that their support system is rather small. Combine that with the shame and secrecy domestic abuse brings along with it.
Most women would not want to subject their small children for a stint in a shelter, homelessness, and poverty. They feel their priority is to meet the needs of their children. It would be selfish to subject them to any hardship to benefit them. I don't think in these circumstances anybody could fault a woman that feels that way. Is it right? no. But only a mother would understand the turmoil.
I have to say, I became passionate about this cause about a year ago with the disappearance of Lisa Stebic. All of a sudden I became angry and sick of seeing mothers and women meeting their demise at the hands of someone who would rather "win" than seek a divorce. When did child support and alimony become so unbearable that murder was the only option?
So my life's mission had become to start a REAL foundation to get these victims the help they need. Housing, childcare, jobs, legal help, counseling, protection, etc. Not a piece of paper with names and numbers, but actual help. They can show up on the doorstep and we will take them in as sort of a "witness protection" program. Make life bearable and successful enough that they never feel that returning back to a bad situation is ever an option.
OK, Soapbox over. Read the article below and see if it insights a riot within you as well.
Former Illinois Sgt. Drew Peterson wants to divorce his wife who vanished more than three months ago, The Herald News reported on Thursday.
“Yeah, but I don’t think I can for a year or so,” Peterson told the newspaper about his divorce plans.
Stacy Peterson disappeared in October and is believed to be dead. Peterson is a prime suspect but insists he is innocent.
“She ran off with another guy,” Peterson said, according to the newspaper. “It’s that simple.”
“First we have to see if she shows up,” he told The Herald News. “Then I think we have to wait for a year.”
The ex-cop told the newspaper he would not mind getting legal advice from Chicago attorney Corri Fetman, who is expected to appear in Playboy magazine and has promoted her practice in racy billboard ads, according to the paper.
“If she wants to go out for drinks, give me a call,” he told The Herald News.
Peterson’s third wife, Kathleen Savio, died under mysterious circumstances in 2004, when she was found in a bathtub. Her body was exhumed for further forensic analysis, and officials have reclassified her death as a “homicide staged to look like an accident.”
First Thursday's soundtrack:
1. Wild, Wild, West ---Escape Club
This song kicks so much ass. It makes no sense, but I love it anyway. Australians love a good rock song with dumb lyrics.
2. Autobiography--- Ashlee Simpson
Don't judge me! She's a hell of a lot better than her sister. And say what you want, this is a great song.
3. Queer--- Garbage
1998 Anyone? Great "vamp" song. You can totally get your supermodel walk on to this.
4. Hazy Shade of Winter---Bangles
A good song because it's chicks rocking without that Susanna Hoffs singing.
5. She's Electric---Oasis
In my opinion, their best song. It's got their own sound and great lyrics. Nt that Beatles wannabe crap they tried to sell america 10 years ago.
Ok, I already posted this on CafeMom. If you've read it there just back-click and wait for the post on Britney.
Below I have posted an article that just about made me hurl my waffles. I don't tend to get on my hi-horse about much, because I'm relatively shallow, but this just makes my blood boil.
Dare I say, it even makes me feel like a feminist. My decision to become a lawyer is rooted in situations like this one. I can't speak for your community,but here in Dupage County, IL if a woman needs to get away from an abusive spouse or situation, the resources are next to nil. We have a service that will help you obtain a restraining order, and give you a list of shelters and lawyers. That's about it.
While some would argue that at least it's something, I think there is a huge demographic missing a helping hand. Personified by the disappearance of both Stacy Pertson and Lisa Stebic. In my opinion the middle class are desperately under-served socially. Long story short, because I could go on for days about this, women in the income bracket of 50K-75K are most at risk of dying by the hands of their spouse.
Why? Because in these households, a compelling percentage of them are one income, multi children ones. Women abused in this dynamic are not employed and probably have not been employed for at least 2 years, have 2 children under the age of 5, have no control over the finances, and have been isolated to the point that their support system is rather small. Combine that with the shame and secrecy domestic abuse brings along with it.
Most women would not want to subject their small children for a stint in a shelter, homelessness, and poverty. They feel their priority is to meet the needs of their children. It would be selfish to subject them to any hardship to benefit them. I don't think in these circumstances anybody could fault a woman that feels that way. Is it right? no. But only a mother would understand the turmoil.
I have to say, I became passionate about this cause about a year ago with the disappearance of Lisa Stebic. All of a sudden I became angry and sick of seeing mothers and women meeting their demise at the hands of someone who would rather "win" than seek a divorce. When did child support and alimony become so unbearable that murder was the only option?
So my life's mission had become to start a REAL foundation to get these victims the help they need. Housing, childcare, jobs, legal help, counseling, protection, etc. Not a piece of paper with names and numbers, but actual help. They can show up on the doorstep and we will take them in as sort of a "witness protection" program. Make life bearable and successful enough that they never feel that returning back to a bad situation is ever an option.

More Scientology Madness
are you KIDDING me with this stuff???
Bart Simpson just gave $10 million to the "church" of Scientology.
Bart a.k.a Nancy Cartwright donated the money to fuel the campaign agaist the "evils" of our society...i.e. Psychology, Rehab, etc.
That's a lot of Dianetics and Vitamin Water. Which according to L.Ron will heal all of our ills.
To put this in perspective Nancy's donation paled to the measily $5mil Tom Cruise gave, and the $1 mil Travolta gave too.
Eat my shorts...
Dont we have like starving people and children that need access to education that oculd use this money so much better than XENU???
Wonder what Krusty thinks of that.

Happy humper y'all!
What up mon homies? Before I begin with the day's news let me give you today's soundtrack...
1. Gone 'till November--Wyclef Jean feat. R. Kelly
Such a pretty song about being a drug dealer.
2. I'm Real-- J.Lo feat. Ja Rule
Everyone knows I'm mad for the girl. And really this is the only song that I can tolerate with Ja Rule in it.
3. Rock DJ-- Robbie Williams
I'll never understand why Robbie isn't a bigger deal here in the states. Song and lyrics are brillz in this.
4. Fast as You Can-- Fiona Apple
Again the madness that was my music taste in the 90's. She just sounds so pretentious to me now.
5. Maneater-- Nelly Furtado
The song that just makes me want to be vamp. Work it. Walk. Pose.
Weather report:
Colder than shit. Chicago weather sucks donkey balls. I am getting so serious about the move to O.C. that I have even started looking for jobs just to see what the market will be like when I'm done with school. At this point I'll divorce Fugs and move out there myself since I don't see him wanting to go anywhere. He keeps throwing down Florida, but I want an upgrade. I'm not interested in MORE hillbillies and swamps in my life. I am not at all surprised that more people kill themselves in January than in any other month.
Political News:
So Edwards and Guiliani are out. I like John Edwards, except for the fact he parades his dying wife around the country. She looks awful. I feel terrible for her, I really do. That's love. I wouldn't campaign for Fugs with a hangnail.
And after that Guiliani article I read in Vanity Fair last month, I could not be happier that he is out of the picture. I encourage you to read it www.vanityfair.com . I can't imagine the masses were privvy to the info in this article, but we do not need a man like that in office. Let him keep waving his 9/11 flag as high as he can charging 200K for speaking engagements around the country.
This leaves me with McCain and Obama. Go ahead and disagree with me, because quite frankly, I disagree with myself. Hilary Clinton frightens me. There is just something so abrasive and scary about her but I can only back it up with feeling. I can't say that any of her politics particularly offend me, but my gut says, yikes! I respect the hell out of John McCain. I appreciate his honesty, even if it shoots him in the foot sometimes. And really, who IS an expert on the economy?? That's what you hire experts for.
Obama is just inspirational. I think this country really needs a rally. Let's believe in something. I want to be inspired, I want to see the youth inspired I want this country to have a new energy.
So I'm torn. Let's see how Super Tuesday shakes out. By then I hopefully will have my mind made up. But in Chicago you can vote as much as you want, right???
Sports
Superbowl Sunday: I'll be working, so who cares? Really I want Dopey to beat Bad Babydaddy SO BAD!!! I despise Tom Brady. Ickity Ick Ick Ick.
"Commit to the Indian" uhhh....no. As 1/16 Blackfoot with 1/24 Blackfoot --Cherokee Children (Control your laughter people) I find that slogan offensive. People want to adopt THAT but demand that U of I get rid of the Illini logo and Chief Illiniwek??? Lame.
oooh! Shane Keough is coming to play for the Kane County Cougars! I am so going to heckle him.
The Bulls still suck.
Celebrity News:
Britney-- Intervention! Not going to happen. No Way. I still can't figure this girl out. I think that's why I'm SO fascinated by her. It's hard to know which way is up when you're circling the drain. Whatever you think of her, she's someones mom, sister, and daughter.
I am so sick of Paris Hilton being famous. People forget she is famous for letting a guy pee on her. And now Macy's is going to peddle her ugly ass shoes! Get real!
Superior Mother Goddess Gwen Stefani is preggers! Yay! She is SO fierce.
Tom Cruise is still bat-shit crazazy. I'm all for passion in what you believe, but wasn't Scientology started on a bet? I heard Ol' L. Ron bet his other writing buddy that he could start a religion and get people to follow it.
On the homefront:
I've been neglecting blogger lately. I'm all caught up with the Moms over at Cafe Mom...I know that is SO cool! Nerdy McNerdnerd right here folks. f you want to catch up on my life over there past 6 weeks please by all means go there and ead THAT hot mess of a blog. You'll laugh your heinie off.
Itty Bitty's birthday was yesterday. We're gonna do the whole party thing on Friday. Then The three of them are going to Farton for the weekend, and I'll get to be home alone!!! Woo-hoo! Ice Cream, bad reality TV and alcohol!
Well peeps, that's enough for right now...
