Fob-Style Thanksgiving Feast
I’ve always wondered what it’s like to have cranberry sauce and honey-baked ham at Thanksgiving dinner. And I don’t think my mother would know what a casserole was if it hit her in the face.
My holiday dinners usually look a little more like this: seafood chow mein, sushi rice, mei fun (rice vermicelli), ba wan, salmon, tea eggs, cold spiced beef, ai yu lychee drink,...

Thank a Soldier
XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL
If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can’t pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.
It is FREE and it only takes a second.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of...

Totally Unnecessary Update on my Loose Teeth...
Not that anyone cares, but for posterity’s sake I shall document my experience regardless.
I spent the whole day bouncing between health care providers today in hopes of rectifying the Incisor Disaster of ‘09. My orthodontist sighed loudly and exasperatedly throughout the entire ordeal and simply could not comprehend how I managed to smash my face in to the point of severe dental...

In Which I Subconsciously Do Debaucherous Things...
As expected — Vegas was a literal shitshow.
Things we lost this weekend in Sin City:
A brand-new tire, which crapped out 45 minutes from Vegas.
A bottle of vodka, which we dropped near the Grand Canal in the Venetian. SO CLASSY.
A $100 bill. And not even on a stripper or at the slots!
Chang’s license and credit card, the latter of which was stolen and swiped for over $500.
The...

Could it be? I found a place more magical than Ayia Napa, Cyprus.
So night #1 in Vegas was a huge success/failure, depending on how you look at it. Long story short: I need to see a dentist, stat. My first thought after getting two teeth knocked out of position? At least this is hilarious blogging material. Second thought: But how will I eat at the buffets?
I definitely need new priorities in...
Finally the Blatant Hinting About My Birthday...
Oh my gaw. It’s true what they say. The Snuggie is the singlehandedly most genius invention evar. From this point forward I no longer require supplementary outerwear. Moreover, I can now blog in my Snuggie before rolling straight into bed, no extra blanket-adjusting needed. GLORIOUS.
