Re: peter pan syndrome, edie and pasta

Jenn — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 12:15:01 -0000

So cute! Seriously! Shower her with toys because of her undeniable cuteness :)

I haven't been to Leona's in forever - I forgot that place existed! I'm always craving pasta. Always. I don't think I'd ever turn it down. When I was living on my own I'd eat prego & spaghetti every week. It's a miracle I'm not fat from all the monster carbs.

I think I'd like to re-do my 21st birthday. It sucked and I didn't really drink. This year, we're drinking! Three days after it we'll be in SF! Woo hoo!

Rami and Jillian's clothes actually look wearable. Christian's seem very costume-like. Didn't they say the fat guy was costume like? I agree that Christian has been consistently good, but did he deserve to win? Eh...I'm not so sure.

Re: letter to my body

Jenn — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 13:34:55 -0000

Oh Miss Jamie,

I think many, many people can relate to this. First, kudos to you for actually writing this and sharing it with the Internet world.

Breakdowns in dressing rooms aren't uncommon for me. While I don't necessarily struggle with weight on a regular basis, I can't dress myself for shit. I hate being as short as I am because I feel I look retarded in everything I put on. The jeans are either too long or too tight. Retailers forget that 5 foot 1 inch girls can and DO have hips. I hate that the only jeans that fit my length are size zeros and ones. I'd have to cut them to get them over my thighs and hips. Lately though, my good jeans are getting a wee bit tight. I tend to eat my heart ache. No bueno!

Blah I'm rambling! Anyway, I hope you find your balance. I wish I could find the motivation and determination to eat better and work out.

Re: puppy brain made me forget to blog ANTM

Jenn — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 13:02:18 -0000

I'm loving that animated Tyra. It's like she's stomping on all the little people.

I'm so happy Kimberley left. I expected more from Marvita & Fatima. I'm really loving Claire & Whitney. In one of the promos for ANTM, it has pictures of the girls post-makeover. I tried not to look long because it's going to ruin the makeover show for me :(

Seriously Jamie, I could eat your dog, Edie's so cute. I won't of course, cause that wouldn't be awesome.

Re: why I blog

Jenn — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 11:51:13 -0000

Okay first, your dog is adorable.

Second, yes. I often feel that I need to write about something substantial or fluff things up a bit because I'm afraid my blog will seem too dark or depressing if I bitch about my relationship. I find that I spend too much time thinking about what readers want more than what I want. I forget a lot that my blog is just that: MY blog. As long as I'm getting everything out and throwing it into the universe, I shouldn't get so wrapped up in the stats-mumbo-jumbo.

Third, I love your blog. Truly.

Dear Miss Jamie,

Thank you for posting all of those wonderful clips of Tyra. They made me giggle out loud.

I'm looking forward to ANTM this evening.

You are bEAUtiful.

Sincerely,
Me.

Re: Target, Paris and Hooters?

Jenn — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 15:03:22 -0000

I saw Paris Je T'aime at Blockbuster and almost rented it. I opted not to since I hadn't read or heard much about it though. I'll have to re-add it to my list.

And for the record, I love yellow and orange Starbursts.

Re: a little bit of everything

Jenn — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 14:37:33 -0000

I'm really excited about the meet-up. A wee bit nervous because I'm ridiculously shy...but it will be fun. Must remember camera!

I'm glad you're heat is on and working. Especially with this snow storm we're supposedly getting tomorrow night.

I saw the NaBloPoMo thing. I think it's a good idea. I like the themed-months. March is a month of lists I believe. I don't think I'll be able to write a list every day...we'll see if I remember to try once it rolls around :)

Re: What’s that you say? Free stuff?

Jenn — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 11:28:32 -0000

This is quite possibly the stupidest thing I've done for "love." I left WIU and moved to Utah...Salt Lake City to be exact. I left Illinois, my friends, family, sorority and school behind to move to mormon-central to be with a guy. We ended up breaking up shortly after said move. But I had a fantastic apartment, met a great roommate and fell in love with the mountains. So I guess it was sort of worth it.

Thinking I'd learn after this, I did it again. I moved from Utah, back to Illinois where I found an apartment in Franklin Park, only to move down to southern Illinois in a town four hours away for another guy. Of course, this didn't work out. It was downright ugly. But again, another lesson learned.

I'm done moving.

For now :)

Re: the unknown

Jenn — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 12:00:18 -0000

I can defintiely empathize with you. I'll be 24 in a few months and I'm lacking a degree. Sure I graduated from massage therapy school..but that doesn't count. It's not like I have a degree to show for it. Just some crappy certificate I had to pay $13,000 for.

I have an idea of what I'd like to do, but there are so many things that discourage me from pursuing it (i.e., money, time, confidence, etc.)

But I'm back at home after having been out on my own for a couple of years and it's utterly frustrating. I want my career to begin now so I can get out. Like Ashley said, I'm not sure if everything does fall into place or if you just have to jump in and go for it...wing it! But at least you have a lot of options and time to pursue this. I'd rather be extremely picky than be miserable because I picked a major or job that I loath.

Re: no heat

Jenn — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 12:36:38 -0000

Oh wow. I feel bad complaining about it being cold in my house when it's 68. I hope you get your heat back soon! Sending very warm vibes!

I was going to leave this long ass comment and decided that I have way too much to say about this and will make it into a post. It'll give me something to do at work.

But the short answer would be: it depends.

I'll be sure to credit you for the inspiration in the post :)

Re: Super Bowl…more like Puppy Bowl!

Jenn — Sun, 03 Feb 2008 12:34:52 -0000

Re: my day yesterday

Jenn — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 19:39:04 -0000

I hate fractions with a passion.

I was a big baby when I got my TB shot. The nurse laughed at me. She probably wondered how someone with tattoos on their wrists could be such a sap when it comes to shots.

The bump from the shot raised slightly so I walked around for a couple days thinking I had "the consumption."

Re: sleep

Jenn — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 17:01:37 -0000

I never get to sleep until 9 :( Even if I have nothing going on. It's like my body just doesn't care and wakes up whenever the hell it wants. I try to force myself to stay up late in hopes I'll sleep past 9...but noooooooope! Stupid body.

Hope you catch up on sleep soon!

Re: Cloverfield

Jenn — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 17:03:13 -0000

The boyfriend thought this movie was "amazing." His cousin thought it was the worst movie ever and he felt like puking from the motion sickness.

I guess I can wait for the DVD then! I would rather see 27 dresses :)

Re: Today…

I'm glad you got a fancy teal one and not a boring black one!

The Rose/McDreamy thing is driving me nuts. I don't like her smile. I still want McDreamy & Meredith to end up together. But I'm getting sick of her crap. Just committ already you dumb broad! Gosh!!

Sorry :)

As for this weekend, I'm up to nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Re: Hey you. Ya, you!

Jenn — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 10:57:46 -0000

Leggings are not pants! Ahh that drives me insane. My 11-year-old cousin showed up wearing leggings and a hip-length shirt. I was like "where the eff are your pants?! you're 11!!"

Re: one of THOSE entries

Jenn — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 11:41:16 -0000

That puppy is adorable! I want just like it!

Buying books is the worst part about school. Wait, the tuition is. Then comes books. I've said it before, but I hate how ridiculously expensive it is to go to school these days. It's retarded having to pay an arm & a leg for an education to better ourselves.

I'm sorry about your mom and dad. It does seem like she's being selfish. I find it pretty odd that she doesn't want to talk about it at all. But maybe she's dealing with her own issues and when she's ready, she'll open up. But still, I understand that you just want some answers. I hope she comes around soon. Some where in the many Chicago blogs that I read, someone mentioned that'd it'd be a good idea for a Chicago meet-up. Maybe someone will throw one together and we can whisk you away for a day :)

My weekend isn't all fantastical. No movies in my forecast. I have a shift at my school's clinic tomorrow and then hopefully I can wrap up my Christmas shopping Sunday.

I can't wait to hear about Juno. I'd love to see it. I'm living through you!

Re: a sort of timeline

Jenn — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 08:41:53 -0000

I always get bored with my hair. For the past I don't know how many years I've been trying to grow it out. I usually end up cutting it out of boredom and wanting a change. Now it's just touching my shoulders if not slightly past. I'm trying SO hard not to do anything to it.

Re: Rain rain go away

Jenn — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 12:10:55 -0000

The weather is quite ridiculous. I share your Christmas shopping routine though. I often find something I just "have" to have. I'm horrible at impulse buying.

If I won a hefty amount of money, I'd pay off all my bills and student loans. Then I'd buy a new computer, some books, save some and probably buy a lot of new clothes and purses. Oh, and I guess I should probably treat my friends and family to something. If I wont a crap load of money, I'd probably use some to start up my own massage clinic.

Isn't it depressing outside, Jenn? I just want to cuddle up with a book and the boy. I know I would end up being more practical if I did win a lot of money, definitely knock out bills and school. Those would just be my fun things! Also, I'd hire a personal trainer. I need a body like Jessica Alba, haha.

I hate when schools do that in/out-district crap. I'm already paying more than I should to learn material taught by people who usually hate their jobs. I shouldn't have to pay more because I'm an extra 15 minutes away from the school. People should go to school for free! Okay, maybe not free, teachers gotta get paid! But $30,000+ tuitions per year is poppycock!

Good question. My answer could possibly change depending on the mood I'm in on the day the question is asked. It just so happens I'm feeling quite empowered today.

I'm going to go with "My Way" by Frank Sinatra. I know, I know...not really a fun, spunky song. But it's totally summing up the mini-movie of my life playing in my head right now.

As I said in my post, I'm not quite sure where I stand. I suppose I'm confused because essentially it's the same game. I don't see why it matters if you're playing on a white board or a red board.

I agree that a working replacement should be offered and it's a really bad start for Hasbro. A part of me wants to side with Scrabulous creators, but what did they expect? They copied a game and changed its name. It was bound to catch up with them eventually.

Hasbro, on the other hand, could be less of a jerk about it.

Re: Music Consumer Guerrilla Ethics

I couldn't afford to buy music. If I suddenly had to replace everything in iTunes with the CD, I wouldn't.

It's not that I don't want to support the musicians. I do. If I find something I absolutely love I will pay for it. But if I'm testing something out, I'd rather download then spend $20 on the CD.

Re: What I Learned at WordCamp Chicago

Jenn — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 19:38:31 -0000

Not that you need to hear this, as I'm sure with the kind of work you do you already know it. Blogging is about building community. One question I get asked a lot is "how can I get more comments/increase readership?"

First step is having good content. Update frequently and put a little bit of effort into your posts.

Second step is interact (obviously you get this!) Start commenting on other blogs, build that two-way street. Reply to the comments people leave you and get to know your readership.

That's only a small part of course, but it's usually the first piece of advice I give a new blogger, aside from "have fun!!!"

Sorry to scare you haha. Massage therapists are actually more inclined to getting hurt from the toll the work takes on our bodies. Craziness! Self care is wonderful. All that work you get done during a massage won't matter if you don't do self care to help the muscles. At the current time though, exercises are not helping much. I scheduled a massage for Monday!

Re: Protected: The drama of being a COD

Jenn — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 12:35:55 -0000

Realizing that your parents are human and not the superhero you thought they were is difficult. It took me many years to realize that. I feel bad because my mom knew it all along, yet she had to endure years of me crying for my father and telling her I missed him. I resented her for so long. I even moved out of her house to live with him. We both know now that I had to do that so I could see who he really was. I no longer resent her and she is no longer hurt by my actions.

Your dad and my dad seem alike in some ways. He didn't tell me about his girlfriend either. I met her, unknowingly, on Thanksgiving. She told the room that I was her new stepdaughter. Needless to say I was less than thrilled. A "Hello, it's nice to meet you" would have been a more appropriate first impression.

I hope that you can find peace with your father. I hope you can have the kind of relationship that is best for the both of you. I also think it's great that you wrote this. It takes a lot of courage to be so honest about our families.

Hmm....a joke...a joke. Okay!

So a blonde gets on a plane. She's riding coach but decides she'd rather move up to first class. It's not long before a flight attendant finds her and tells her she can't sit there. The blonde replies, "I am beautiful, I am blonde, I'm smart, I'm sitting here."

So the flight attendant gets her supervisor and she tells the blonde that she can't sit there. The blonde replies, "I am beautiful, I am blonde, I'm smart and I'm sitting here."

The flight attendant gets the co-pilot and he tells her that she has a coach ticket and therefore, must sit in coach. The blonde replies, "I am beautiful, I am blonde, I am smart and I am sitting here."

Finally the co-pilot gets the pilot. The pilot's wife is blonde so he said this will ne no problem. The pilot asks the blonde where she is traveling to. She tells him she is going to Toronto. He whispers something in her ear and she gets up and heads back to coach.

Surprised, the co-pilot and flight attendants asked him, "What did you say to her?" The pilot said, "I told her that first class doesn't fly to Toronto."

Re: blogable?

Jenn — Thu, 22 May 2008 13:39:49 -0000

I am definitely not the anonymous blogger type. I don't have the patience or determination it requires of a person to completely hide their identity. I couldn't cover all my tracks.

I don't post pictures of myself everyday or share my last name. I also don't include too many details about my family. If I talk about them, I'm sure not to include full names because it's not my place to share their information. I think at times I feel that I can't say something on my blog, but I quickly get over it. This is my blog and it's my voice. I can't apologize for feeling a certain way and expressing myself. People who know me know that my intentions are never malicious or ill-mannered. I'm simply venting, and often times, they hear the same things they could read here.

I don't wish to be anonymous and I love being me. I love the community I've built and appreciate all the support. My best writing comes from my honesty and I can't be honest if I'm hiding details.

I just remember to be respectful, smart and tactful :)

But I won't.

Oh and uh, living with grandparents sucks balls. Getting hours cut so you can't afford to move out sucks balls. The idea of working two jobs and going to school full time just to afford moving out sucks balls.

I love yo face! Seriously, you're probably my bestest buddy in Chicago. You rocketh the socketh.

I'm working on my own "I love" list. I'm excited!

Hope you're having a fantabulous day you lovely lady, you!

I find you much more attractive than Perez. His face makes me want to punch him. And I do appreciate you not drawing coke or cum doodles on people's faces.

Hate comments? Seriously Clare...where's the originality in that? Way to conform.

You make me happy on so many levels.

Miss Jamie...

Thank you for the link love. I'm really hating on Chicago weather right now.

That book used to be my favorite. My mom would call me "Alexander" whenever I was being grumpy. That would only annoy me more.

Your dog is adorable. If you ever need a dog sitter...you know who to call!

Will you bring me with you?

I'm no good with resumes. I had the boyfriend write mine :D

Re: fake vacations

Jenn — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 17:46:01 -0000

My mom would get a hotel room for the weekend, usually in some part of Illinois, and call it our vacation. I thought it was so awesome to be on a bed bigger than a twin. The pool was what really sold me. You could bring me down the street and I'd be happy, as long as it had a pool.

I'm going to SF this summer. But you already knew that. Other than that...I don't think I have any other trips planned unless the bf stops being a poo face and I end up in ATL.

No worries my dear, I'm glad you are feeling better :)

Go you! I think you're bEEutEEfOOl but I think it's great you want to be healthier. Whatever makes you feel good! Try using a multi-vitamin if you're not already. We're gonna be so hot in SF ! And not because we won't have AC haha!

This was an adorable post :) It made my day better! I love the last picture. Her teeny tongue hanging out really makes the photo.

Thanks for the double link love! I'm oh so excited about BlogHer! I'm glad we're going together!

Let's reschedule our Minnie's lunch :)

Happy day of birth!

Your birthday extravaganza will be fabulous because you are tres fabulouso! Enjoy 21, hug Edie for me and keep a smile on your face :)

Seriously. MTV should pay you for your awesomeness.

Re: wish list (part deux)

Jenn — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 10:42:23 -0000

I don't know why I thought your birthday was Friday instead of tomorrow. Perhaps I make up things?

Anyway, I'm excited that we get to hang out on Saturday. I have to tell you that I did get you something that's on your list here - no it's not the iphone or the ridiculously expensive purse (sorry!)

There's not enough room in this comment box for me to share my wish list. Instead? I'm going to make it into my very own post - crediting you of course :)

Does deodorant count as a beauty product? No? Okay. How about soap? Chapstick? I'm gonna go with chapstick!

Re: selfish

Jenn — Mon, 24 Mar 2008 11:44:20 -0000

Bleh. J-Lov I'm sorry you have to go through this. I know that no amount of "I'm sorries" will fix anything. But at least you know that you have people supporting you and sending you positive vibes. I think it's good that you write about it. As we've both said, writing can be very therapeutic. Keep writing. Keep kicking ass and being the awesome chick you are.

Don't let her ruin your birthday for you. Just because you won't be celebrating with her doesn't mean you can't celebrate. We can have the waiter/waitress sing happy birthday to you at Minnie's on Saturday :)

I love that picture.

Christian has been EVERY where lately. Last night he was on Access Hollywood. Everyone is still talking about his SNL skit. He's a clever little tranny.

I agree with TKTC. Edie should join us on the cupcake crawl. No peeing allowed though.

Kayleigh & Sandy

You both should come! Most Chicago bloggers only met once at the last meet-up. We're still pretty much strangers :) It would be fun getting to meet new people!

Re: pub crawls are overrated

Jenn — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:35:06 -0000

Those cupcakes do look amazing. I'd lick the screen if I knew it wouldn't taste funny.

Ben should just visit Chicago. Or we could mail him cupcakes.

Amaretto Sours

I'm telling ya...these things are delicious. I'm a big fan of looking at the martini menu. So many flavors! Cosmos are always tasty and mojitos! Yum! They're minty and good!

Dominique and Stacy Ann need to go. Stacy's voice is annoying and her new hair draws too much attention to her weird face. Dominique still looks like a tranny. An old tranny.

I still don't feel super great about this season!

Re: Edie update

Puppy kindergarten, that's cute fierce! You have incredible patience to be a nanny AND raise a puppy :)

Yay for ANTM & Top Chef tonight!

Is it off center? :P It's seriously in your face tranny fierce.

Re: ANTM: makeovers!

Jenn — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 08:45:02 -0000

I don't know if I have a favorite right now. Most of the girls annoy me and I don't think any of the makeovers were particularly awesome. I still like Claire and Whitney a lot. I'm just not sure how I feel about the blonde hair.
