Newest Obsession

Thanks to Miriam on one of my favorite blogs Kafferepet I now have a new blog obsession...here.
Its like Christmas everyday! An incredible treasure trove of ideas. I can't get enough of it.

I WIN!

Wendy for too many reasons to list is one of my very favorite human beings ever.
Yesterday she sent out an email to see if anyone could house/dogsit for her. I responded immediately with reasons why she should choose me, and then I chatted her reasons why she should choose me, and even admitted I was indeed talking to myself about it.
This morning I opened my email to this little gem:

From: Wendy
To: Tam
Subject: You Win!

Tamara Leeper, You have Won.

You and two four-legged guests are invited to stay at the Hula Palace from 11/5 through 11/15. Your all-inclusive stay includes your choice of luxury bedrooms – both queen sized for you and your THREE 4-legged friends.

In order to claim your prize you must:

1. Come to a 90 minute dinner and presentation by the Hula Palace staff

2. Make the Hula Palace staff laugh

3. Submit your grocery list to have all your taste needs met.

In return…I will be eternally grateful!

PS – I have a huge laundry set up in the garage – bring everything you have ever wanted to wash.

Thanks

Wendy

YAY FOR WINNING! and YAY for having Wendy in my life. :)

YAY! Finally got it.

Be jealous.

Are you kidding me?

Its not the fact that these people received mysterious laptops that bugs me about this article on Yahoo! odd news. Actually they all had my respect for being so careful, that is until I read this last sentence of the article:
"The state's auditor was also tricked into rerouting nearly $2 million meant for vendors into bank accounts set up by what investigators say is a Kenyan-based fraud ring."
Really? Doesn't everyone know about those frauds? I probably don't have nearly as much education as that auditor and yet somehow I know....I wonder if that person had a job the next day.

Imogen Heap

New album at the bottom of my blog to listen to....

I wish

I sometimes wish I had the power to deflate people's car tires with my mind when they do one of (but not limited to) the following:

1. Cut me off and then drive slow (I would of course move out of the way before the deflation)
   
2. tailgate me and then get all super pissy pants and speed around me (thank Carrie for the pissy pants term. She is a treasure trove of excellent terms)
   
3. shout things to me when driving by (Catalina Blvd. is the College Ave of Point Loma/OB so there are a lot of college idiots)
4. Misuse the merging zipper affect.

I imagine these people all smug in there ridiculousness and then BAM! a nice slice of humble pie and their prideful smugness crumbles before them.

The one with the concert friend

Tina is the best. She somehow always knows about all the concerts in town. For Christmas she got us Adele tickets (awesome) and now for my Birthday she got us these:
