Fake Purses Strike Again

Yesterday on the train ride home, a lady sat next to me with a Coach bag - a very FAKE Coach bag - I am pretty good a spotting fake purses of all types and I usually tell the people carrying them what they funded when they bought that purse.




I know Louis Vuitton, Chanel and Coach are expensive brands and the fakes look so tempting, however keep in mind next time you are in NYC on Canal Street or even some of the streets of DC - this is what that money goes to:

  • funds criminal street gangs
  • funds transnational and domestic terrorism
  • funds human trafficking
  • funds organized crime
Just keep that in mind when you feel the need to fit in and buy that fake bag, save your money and get the real thing.

WTF Monday - Idiot Edition

This morning while on the way to the VRE station - I was behind a mini van that was swerving all over the road, I was like WTF are you drunk already this early.

I wanted to further investigate and proceeded to the other lane and there before me was a female CURLING HER EYELASHES while driving.  Are you kidding me?  I should have called PWPD on her ass, I honked my horn to get her attention and mouthed "WTF" at her.   How in the hell can you effectivly curl your eyelashes while driving -- geesh that's not only dangerous for other drivers, but hell your eyeball as well.

On the way home from a baby shower yesterday (which I survived by the way, they had mimosas - woohoo) - the speed limit was the 45 on the road - the moron in front of me in the fancy Mercedes was doing 40.  Argh - that was a painful 5 miles.

Yes - I am bitchy - its the holidays - I received some invitations to go to friends house for Thanksgiving - however I think I am just going to stay home and watch bad tv all day.

This Whole Vampire Fad is Really Silly

I quite don't get all the rage for Twilight, Vampire Diaries, Vampire this and that, Vampire porn. It's like Hollywood gets on to something and beats the dead horse with it - just like that whole Harry Potter crap.

The only vampire that matters is Count Von Count!

Things That Would Cheer Me Up



Tuesday, November 17, 2009

And now a bitch and whine fest if you will...........

I am grumpy for many reasons -- one I was a victim of a tire slasher this past weekend and I know who the person is - hell you all know who it is without me even having type it - lucky for me I have tire insurance and got the tire for free.

Next up - the 9/11 trial situation is pissing me off to no end. Seriously - New York - are you kidding me?  You want to bring back all the trauma back to the good people of NYC.  Bad idea silly Obama administration, but of course everything you have done so far in your 11 months has been a joke. 

Anyway, I hate the holiday season, I am not going home for either holiday and quite frankly it makes me sad.  Thanksgiving and Christmas will suck to the extreme - Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and not to throw a pity party for myself on here, but it will consist of dinner with the cats.  Christmas, I don't recognize - haven't recognized it since 2002 -  my father died four days after and since then - I don't celebrate it.  Don't give me the "your father wouldn't have wanted that" - I find it a depressing time a year, especially being single.

Expect a more crankier, bitchier me for the next few weeks till freaking January 2 gets here.  Sorry for the depressing post.

A Different Way To Do Your Eyebrows

Last night I was over at Pentagon City Mall visiting my favorite two stores, MAC and Coach, right in between these two was a little kiosk with chairs that advertised Eyebrow Threading.  I have heard about it before and had never tried it.  I was long overdo and thought why not.


Needless to say, I am very pleased with the results.  It was less painful then wax and causes less trauma to the skin - I didn't break out like I usually do.

The name of the place is Eyebrow Designer21 - they are located at many malls throughout the DC area - their website is http://www.eyebrowdesigner21.com/

I will never go back to wax, after experiancing this!

Tales of Online Dating Site Idiots

I decided to put my information on a site - I will leave unnamed and its been the idiot express.  I really wish people would take the time to read your PREFERENCES.   However, not so much.

One guy sent me an email and I wasn't interested, so I deleted it.  He emails me back a week later and puts in the subject line "I'm confused"  - then the body of the email stated "aren't there enough cops to date?"   I have listed as my occupation  "law enforcement"  which is pretty general and covers a lot-- I haven't been a cop in like almost 5 years and why would someone ask that -- that has to be the stupidest question I have ever seen.

Next up - what is with the shirtless, headless photos?  Creepy much.

I am also not big on guys putting their childrens pictures on the internet in their profiles.  I have no problem dating a guy with children, I just don't think they should post pictures of their kids on the interwebs.

Posting pictures doing shots, beer pong, - you get the picture -- I already spent a year with an alcoholic, don't want another one.

Don't email me calling me "sexy" and "I think you are cool"   Really?  Have we hung out yet?  You can't gage this off a picture and a few sentences about myself.

Seriously - dating is for the birds man!   Yes - I am grumpy cause its the holiday seasons and I am the official grinch!
