Taste the happy

Today was the day nerds in San Francisco coverged together to jizz in their pants about comic books, video games, and other nerd things that nerds like.

Yes I was one of these nerds and jizzed in my pants for this panel...Thanks to wondercon.com

Sony Pictures Television, 20th Century Fox, and FOX: Sit Down, Shut Up— Get ready to Sit Down, Shut Up with the cast and producers of the newest animated comedy series to hit FOX on Sunday, April 19 at 8:30 pm. Here's your chance to ask burning questions about the show's origin and first season, interact with the voice talent, learn more about their characters, and catch an exclusive sneak peek at the series! Executive producers Mitch Hurwitz (Arrested Development) and Josh Weinstein (The Simpsons) will be joined by voice talent Will Arnett (Arrested Development), Kenan Thompson (Saturday Night Live), Henry Winkler (Happy Days), and Tom Kenny (SpongeBob SquarePants). Moderated by Animation Magazine editor Ramin Zahed.


Uh Yeah...Will Arnett...in person...speaking...YES PLEASE!!!

Anyways I went with Michele to this because we're both HUGE Arrested Development fans AND Will Arnett fans...it also doesn't hurt that the Fonz, Superdude, and Spongebob was there too.

You should know by now that if there is an autograph session or chance to meet these people I'll go for it. Here are some pictures I took waiting in line because they didn't allow pictures once you were getting your autographs.



IDK why that picture is coming out like that, but whatevs...thats what they signed for me...the show looks pretty funny. I have video of the cartoon, but I'm not gonna put it up because I don't want to get sued by FOX and others.

Man I'm having some luck with meeting these people. Kinda crazy and cool.

Swoon vs. Gross

Swoon by definition is to enter a state of hysterical rapture or ecstasy.

Ecstasy makes it sound like its sexy or erotic. Meh that isn't what I wanted to go for.

Anyways...I've incorporated the word swoon into my vocab because I like to use it to describe things I like in guys. I have pretty high standards, but you know...that's how I roll I'm not just going to settle for some scum bucket because he was available and I was desperate. I hate being desperate. To me being desperate is being weak and that you just want to be in a relationship because you feel like you're suppose to. Forget the fact that the guy could be in jail or whatnot, but as long as you say you're with him its ok...I don't know I'm ok with being independent and by myself. I mean you don't have to worry about what others might think of and stuff...you're free to do whatever you want. Hell if I want to stay home I'll stay home...if I feel like going out I'll go out. Whatever...Anyways...I was listening to Jason Mraz because his song was playing (it was 1000 Things if you were wondering) and one of the lyrics in the song goes:

See, I've always wanted to kiss you
But I, I always wanted to run from you
Because I've always wanted to miss you
And I, I always wanted to comfort you

Gah talk about being a messy emotional ball. See why can't guys in real life be like this? For real...I'm so sick of guys being all macho and "I'm a pimp/thug/tough guy" walking around in their baggy jeans and oversized shirts. Or even worse...guys who looks good, but once you sit down and talk with them they get really creepy and start playing footsies with you under the table and they look at you like you're the one who started it. Ugh gross.

I know Jason Mraz is a real person, but I'm saying...where are all the guys like him in the world...fuck the world...where are all the guys like him in San Francisco?

Ok Ok I'm going to stop...I'm starting to sound desperate...and ugh yeah I think you guys know how I feel about that.

Anyways...I began writing this entry to talk about swoon and what makes me swoon...

- Guys with nice hair (I'm talking either spikey or shaggy, but not too shaggy as seen here)
- Guys who play musical instruments...guitar, piano, drums, if they're musically inclined then its hook line sinker for me (Many of my celeb crushes are musically inclined. so yay if I ever get famous...HA)
- Smiles...they have to have a nice smile and teeth. Superficial I know, but I can't stand messed up teeth. That just tells me they don't take good care of themselves.
- Guys in suits...I've always had a thing for guys in a good suit, not some wrinked stuff that they had in the back of their closet...I'm talking looking like this or this

Well...whatevers...beggers can't be choosers right?

And it's our God-forsaken right to be loved love love loved love...

GOD I'm in a mood right now...

I'm an emotional creature and whatever music is playing is pretty much how I'm going to be feeling. That's why I play happy music when I go to work.

When I get home thought I open up my Itunes and and let it play. I always have it on shuffle...I like to be surprised and see what kind of mood my Itunes is in that day. Usually it knows what I want to hear, but sometimes it does too good of a job and it just completely puts me in a mood.

I'm not going to lie, a lot of my music is pretty emo...not emo like I cut my wrists and I wear my hair to cover my face stuff. But emotional stuff where once the song starts it grabs you by the soul and just takes you on an adventure. Some musicians cough*Mraz*cough grabs you by your heart strings and makes it dance...sometimes others like *cough*Mayer*cough will take your heart and stomp it on the ground until its mush then spit on it and walk away as if nothing happen. Sometimes I sit in my chair close my eyes and just let the music go through me.

I don't just listen to music...I fucking feel it.

One song that I can't skip ever is Jason Mraz's Sleeping to Dream. I love this song... I don't know how to describe it...I just melt into a ball of goo when this song starts playing. My favorite version of this song is the one from his album Selections for Friends. Go listen to it if you don't have it already and just be prepared to have your heart explode because that's what Mraz does...makes hearts and heads explode from his awesomeness.

Another song that makes me go ga-ga is Adele's Crazy for You. It's just her and a guitar and it makes me swoon. Yes swoon works here...I could only imagine meeting someone and its in the beginning stages of a relationship where you both are just swooned over each other...like you're crazy in love, but not in love yet. I can't say I've felt it, but man I think it would be a nice feeling.

I feel like a loser for being a such a hopeless romantic. I'm super naive when it comes to love and romance...all that jazz. I still believe that love can conquer all and people can still fall in love with each other everyday. Not fall in love with different people everyday, but with the same person they've been with since who knows when. That's the kind of love I want. I'm old-school...I love seeing older couples walk down the street holding hands and still laughing after 40+ of being together. I don't know if I'll find that in this lifetime, but dang it I hope my soul or something will feel it sometime.

Say It Ain't So...

Sigh...its Valentine's day...the one day where couples decide to be extra lovey-dovey.

As someone who doesn't have a special person to share this day with...I'm celebrating something else. Today is the day that the greatest band in the world joined forces and that band is Weezer.

Taken when I saw them at the Warfield in 2005.


Anyways...Valentine's day...can't say that I'm super excited about this holiday. Is it even a holiday? Its not a holy day is it? I don't get time and a half for working today and I find it hard to believe when people say "I love Valentine's Day...its my favorite holiday!"

Like...really people?

Ok I lied...yesterday was the best day of the year

Yeah I know I said meeting Jon Hamm was the best day ever, but I think yesterday topped that...BIG TIME.

I met Barry Zito, left-handed pitcher for your San Francisco Giants. I also got to shake hands with Bengie Molina, catcher and clean up hitter for the Giants too...He's my cousin favorite player on the team.


Look at that...le sigh...That is the best moment ever. I'll have a better version of it in about a week or so when I get it in the mail. Gah...I still can't believe I met him.

This picture makes me feel kinda sad too because my cousin who is 10 years younger than me is taller than me. He's growing up :(

Words>>>>Numbers

I'm trying to work on this quiz for accounting. I'm glad she gives us a day to work on it. Yay for online class.

See I'm all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages for words
More words than I had ever heard
And I feel so alive


I really dislike numbers...I've always been a word person. Sure I can't spell for crap, but whatever...I can arrange them in a way that can make people's brain explode. Well at least I used to have that power back in high school. Not so much now-a-days and that bums the fuck out of me. I don't know what happened...one year I'm writing so many poems that I didn't have enough notebooks to write everything down, not its the total opposite...I have too many notebooks with nothing to fill them with except for the occasional lottery numbers for my mom or my to-do lists which always starts with "Get organized".

I heard somewhere that everyday Prince writes a new song because he has that many song ideas in his head. As they said on 30 Rock...I want to go to there.

I want to be so absorbed in my thought that I have to write things down or else those ideas will never get expressed. I seriously miss that. I miss being able to write something down and not thing about if its crap or not. When I try to write now...I feel like its being forced out. You can't just force out creativity...it has to come out like free and flowing. I feel like my brain built a dam that blocks my creativity like its storing the creative waters for something.

Well I probably should go back to numbers =\

Mraz on SNL



^ I'm Yours



^Lucky with Colbie

Best day of the year? Probably...

Today has to be the best day I've had this year.

Today I went to go see Jon Hamm...twice at the SF Sketchfest. The first time was this podcast by the Never Not Funny guys and well...they were funny. Jon Hamm is a beautiful human, when they introduced him and he came out I literally said "Oh My God" and lost my breath for a second. They joked around for the next 40 mins and even answered some audience questions. I was still too in awe of him to do anything.

So after the podcast, me, Michele, and her friend Christina were trying to settle our bar bill when out comes Jon Hamm to sign some autographs and to meet the people. I nearly died. So after waiting for our turn we shook hands with him and he asked all our names. And let me tell you...he has a nice handshake. Anyways we asked to take a picture and here it is! Proof that Jon Hamm put his arm around me.

I'm still in awe. really I am...this is up there when I met Jason Mraz.

Just OMGOSDFDIKSJLKDJF I METTTT HIMMMM!!!!

/fangirl

And to top it off Mraz is on SNL singing and he has a goatee!!! I am in swoon overload. Seriously.
