updating because i feel i must.

It has been way too long since I've been to the Sizzler. I keep almost going, and then it doesn't work out. It is wonderful that Schnebbs and Schnebbs get a week vacation to Disneyland but they are my Sizzler friends and they need to come back. (heee-eey schnebbs!)

Is the word schnebbs totally over? It might be, but I don't know if I can stop saying it.

So, Barack Obama watches Mad Men. God he is cool. John McCain says that he watches The Tudors. First of all, yeaaahhhhhhh right!! And second of all, that is extremely gay. Remember when John McCain hosted SNL? That was weird. That was back when he was all, "Yeah, I'm a republican but I can be hip and funny and totes all about the liberal media and I wanna do Jon Stewart up the butt hole" and I was all like, "John Ma-who? Huh, all right McCain, I might pick up what you're puttin' down..." and then he turned into the biggest douche bag ever.

i have so many things to say

I made this sweet waffler for a contest and then I missed the deadline. Which sucks but i guess i'll just post the pics on here.

how can anyone not like Yelle? it's happy music. hey Zoe, you should listen to Yelle.

speaking of Zoe, OMG THIS BLOG HAS TROLLS!! Someone has been commenting, pretending to be Zoe but they are not Zoe. who would do that?! An effing troll! Hey troll, get your lulz up out of my business! But, if it's not a troll that's doing it and it's just someone I know OR it's not even happening at all and the real Zoe is just playing an elaborate prank on me, then that's pretty funny and...proceed.

i went to a Fleet Foxes show a couple nights ago and i would say that it was probably life-changing. Robin Pecknold is a God. i felt like i was watching a young Bob Dylan, or Jeff Mangum or something. the connection he had to what he was playing and to the audience was raw and emotional and i just feel like it was pretty special.

stolen from Jessy because it was really entertaining but mine probably isn't as entertaining. no backstreet boys.

today

I had a really good day today. I haven't had one of those in awhile.
Not isolating + Busy work day + Laundry + spending time with old friends + making new friends = Ali happy.
That is all.

the dog pt.2

I am wondering right now if it is healthy to hate a poor defenseless puppy as much as I do in this moment. I really thought that I was such a dog person! It was, like, one of those things I would tell people about myself. I don't think I am anymore.

I am cool with a lot of dogs. Like, Wilson (my family's dogs). And, Laryne's dog Otto. And, Ben's dogs. Even my roommate's one dog, Zillionaire...he's fine. BUT THIS PUPPY IS SUCH A LITTLE BITCH! And not even the OK kind of bitch when you are talking about dogs, because he's not female.

He seriously howls from 6:00 in the morning until my roommate gets back from work. I've tried everything. I even took him out of his cage this morning and tried to play with him. He still howled, even when I was with him. Headphones with loud music don't block it out. ALMOST, but I still hear it just enough to feel immense hatred. Talking to him sternly. Giving him a rawhide treat. None of it works. The Mexicans downstairs can't be happy about this either.

So, I was never really a huge fan of Tegan and Sara's last album but they released an album this year of the Demos from it and I kind of can't stop listening to it!!

Tegan and Sara, gay or not gay? lulz. Gay twins. Gwins.
Check out this funny picture of Tegan and Sara with those guys from Metallica. Haha! Because it's Tegan...and Sara...and Metallica.

hair cut

I got my hair cut today and it's a little shorter than i wanted it to be. I kind of look like a boy.
I feel like in a week it will be fine, though.

Should I go see the Secret Life of Bees?
Reasons to not go see it - I hate Dakota Fanning. I feel like Queen Latifah is second rate about 89% of the time. It's probably going to be lame.
Reasons to go see it - I like black people. Jennifer Hudson. I heard the book was good or something. Did Oprah say that?

Should I go see Blindness?
Reasons to go see it - It looks AWESOME!!!!1
Reasons to not go see it - mediocre reviews?!?! how disappointing!

Dakota Fanning, gay or not gay? Neither, just retarded.

drag for diane

see more pwn and owned pictures

passion ignited!!

So...that's, uh, Terry Richardson. And Barack Obama. I LOVE TERRY RICHARDSON!!! I don't know why but I just think he is really super cool. Maybe it's the flannel shirt, maybe it's the grandpa glasses, maybe it's the dirty rapist mustache, maybe it's the nudie pictures he takes. And look, Barack Obama is touching his hand!! Wow...who knows where that hand has been. Ha, I do! I know! (on his penis)

The Dog

Maybe instead of writing about how adorable and funny my roommate's dogs are, I can write about how much I want to kick them in the brain. Zillionaire was crying and barking in the room right next to me for three hours this morning while I was trying to sleep. And the other dog...the warrior king...what a little douche. He pees on the floor all the time. My roommate isn't the greatest at disciplining him. Her solution is to just keep him in her lap at all times. That's going to suck when he grows to this size.

What's up with people texting me and saying "what's up?" and then me texting back and saying "nothing...what's up with you?" and then not hearing back from them ever?

Zoe's update of the day is...........OMG Amy Poehler is sooOoOoOo preggerz!!1!11!!
That just made Zoe sounds like a 13 year old girl, but that's not what she's like at all. I'm misrepresenting her.

sorry zoe

For those of you who don't know Zoe Nelson, please allow yourself to get acquainted with her. She's only the biggest celebrity in Kalispell, Montana. That is if you don't count John Lithgow, who supposedly lives in Kalispell or somewhere around there. Aaaaand...Gomer Pyle. And Connie Chung. Ok, well, Zoe's probably at least in the top 10 or 15. There is a mural of her in Norm's News on Main Street for Christ's sake!! Is there a freakin' mural of Connie Chung anywhere?! I highly doubt it. Anyway, the point is, one time I saw Zoe in the park and I thought it would be funny to ask for her autograph but I'm glad I didn't because we probably never would have become such great friends if I had done that. And even further, the real point is, this entire blog is pretty much totally for Zoe. So she's going to be a recurring character. Like pretty much anytime Zoe says something to me, I'll probably blog about it. But, Zoe, don't you try to pull one over on me and start saying things just so I'll blog about them! I wasn't born yesterday, you finky sea-rat! So, anyway, all you other readers...be introduced.

Zoe pretty much told me that I was a pessimistic retarded person after I wrote that last blog. And even though I'm listening to the La Vie En Rose soundtrack and it kind of makes me want to move to France, I know that she's right. There are good things about the U.S.A. and not voting is pretty dumb and this election is pretty important and stuff.

Politicians

Watching the debate tonight and then following up with some research has made me come to the realization that all politicians are pussies. I mean, I get it...I get why everyone should vote...how it's our responsibility as American citizens...blahdiblahdiblah. But, honestly, I just can't get excited about anyone. I'm liberal, so, I obviously think that Obama could do the most good. But I just don't feel like he totally baROCKS, you know? I guess at least he's not evil, retarded, and 300 years old like John McCain. And I think Biden is just your every day normal politician. A pussy. Not a lot of backbone, maybe. But at least he's not a psycho, irrational, biotch like Sarah Palin. I don't really feel like anyone who wants to be president is actually fit to be president. There are some people who are fit to be president, but those people are smart and humble and would never want to be the President. Unless, you know, it was some emergency situation like a CYLON ATTACK!!!!! omg i <3 Laura Roslin. i am so writing her in.

I hate it when people are super cynical all the time. But when it comes to electing the next president (as if we the people actually did elect the president)...I just really am not very motivated or passionate. This country is doomed no matter what. What we are really voting for is how fast or slow it's going to happen. It's depressing. It's frustrating. It's scary. But...shit happens. It's pretty fruitless to stress out about it all the time. I don't feel like I have any influence on the direction of the nation or the world. Wouldn't it serve all of us better to just focus on the things we love and roll with the punches? Focusing on the big picture all of the time is exhausting...and it defeats the purpose of seeing the big picture in the first place. And there is a big picture.
