not worth a bad movie

last night we went to see indiana jones. i fell asleep in the middle of a fight scene because it was so ridiculous anyway. it was a terrible movie and i only went because fede put me on a guilt trip saying he had watched so many bad flicks with me so i should put myself through a blockbuster for him.

the only problem is that we biked there, but had to walk back.

yes- the bikes were STOLEN. BOTH. we parked them right outside a pizza shop where it was well-lit and all along the block there were at least 20 other bikes locked to other poles or racks. i guess our screamed "nice and quite new!" so they fcking bastards came along and clipped our cable chains and nicely made away with nearly $1400 worth in bike.

they were definitely professional bike thieves these guys. they must have seen us walk into the theater and wouldn't be out for the next 2 hours. it was right on 2nd ave and there was non-stop foot traffic so these guys must have been pretty darn smooth. now our poor bikes are probably somewhere in brooklyn or queens getting traded away.

we will probably buy replacement bikes but this time we will get huge-ass kryptonite chains (i read that the weakness is in the padlock) + 2 other locks. i also want to get a bike alarm or maybe install some kind of thief crocodile that snaps at anyone who gets near the bike.

i need a dishwasher and other stories

i need a dishwasher because i spend too much time at the sink washing the dishes. and when i have finished one load of washing, just a few hours later, another load somehow piles up and sits happy in the sink waiting to be washed. i thank viola (my other roommate) for buying these hot pink rubber gloves that i snap on each time i have to get through the dishes. the upside: fede says i look hot in them *wink wink* - but then again he would rather lie and have me do the dishes than do them himself.

speaking of washed - fede asked me the other day, "have you washed the plants?". "you mean watered?". ROFLMAO.

speaking of water - i am not altruistic about this whole save water, save the earth thing. when i ask people to not leave the water running unnecessarily, it is quite selfish in fact. you see i have this little anxiety problem and need to know water is somewhere close at hand. i try to always carry a bottle of water with me and when i don't have quick access to water, i get a little edgy and feel unbearably thirsty even though I might have just had a drink 10 mins before. like when I get into my seat on a flight or watching a movie, i get a little panic attack if I know I'm stuck in my seat for more than an hour without water. so i am one of those annoying ones who will ask for water before the attendants come around with their drink carts.

because i have this need for water constantly, i don't want the world to ever run out of it (fresh water is only 3% of total water). people (like my bf) think oh, I'm not paying for this water so I will waste it or oh, we don't have water shortage problems here so I won't worry about it. but at the end of the day we are all part of the same big ecosystem and whatever happens in the water cycle in one place will have its effects in another. so please, for the sake of your friend here, turn off the tap while washing your dishes or maybe skip the shower once in a while- it really isn't so bad.

getting frumpy

as kibum predicted, i my desire to dress up has faded. i sit in my tights or baggy pants all day, no make up, can't care less about how my hair looks.

my nails are a mess too.

yesterday we went to see roman de gare and since i had been sitting around in my aladdin pants all day i saw no need to change out of them to go to the theater. so i threw on his aspesi jacket and flip flops for a real oversized look. as i came down with my bike, my bf looked shell-shocked. this was a new look he had never seen.

"are you going to the movies in your peejamahs?"
"what"
"what the f are you wearing?"
"who cares"

well, anyway, we stopped at whole foods to get theater-dinner. someone in line asked me, "can i ask where you got your jacket? i've been looking for one exactly like that for the longest time!"

see- i obviously make oversized stylish.
