Wow. K... I've decided to call the Otter Pop race. I know it's a little early... But due to some mix-ups, and some shenanigans (shown here...) , Sir Isaac Lime has such a commanding lead (78% of the vote) that I fear no others stand a chance. Congratulations to him and lime lovers everywhere.
Now for our next Poll. Who do you think has the best fast-food fries? Let me know if you think I've forgotten any choices.

Stephan and Sunshine sittin' in a tree...
Jake is taking me to Champions On Ice for my birthday! ROCK ON!!! I'm SO excited. I'm kinda surprised he wants to go. He's a closet skating fan. I think he wants to wear sequins.
Totally loved the end of 24! I can't wait to see what the Chinese are going to do to Jack. Also, the end of Alias was so great. I love that show so much and I'll really miss it. However, I'm really happy with how they ended that show and with how they ended Will & Grace. Goodbye to 2 great shows.
k...back to unpacking. more later.

I Have Exorcised the Dirt! This Body is Clean.
Great news! We moved back home last week. YEAH!!! So, now it's been a long week of unpacking, and moving shit around. Our place is so nice now that it's done. We got new appliances and that rules...This is the first time we've had a fridge that makes ice. It's the little things. : ) Our shower hasn't been working though, so after a week I was so smelly that I was grossing myself out. So, I got out the power drill and fixed it myself. I'm so clean.... What a relief. Tonight is the season finale of 24 and the series finale of Alias. I just can't wait. I'm heading out to jakes now to watch 24, so I'll say goodbye for now. XOXOXO

"Is that your real name?"
You can go to the Social Security website and look up your name to find out how popular it was each year. So, I went to check out Sunshine, and here is what I found.
Popularity of the female name Sunshine
Year of birth & Rank
1981, 805
1980, 707
1979, 706
1978, 697
1977, 575
1976, 562
1975, 537
1974, 619
Note: Rank 1 is the most popular, rank 2 is the next most popular, and so forth. Data are not shown for some of the years you specified because the name Sunshine was not in the top 1000 names for those years. Name data are from Social Security card applications for births that occurred in the United States.
See how in '75, the year after I was born, the name "spiked" in popularity? Copy cats. Mom was a trend setter. :D Seems since '81 I don't even break the top 1000. That's why I can never find keychains, mugs, ornaments, and other misc. what-nots with my name on it. So, what was the number 1 name in 1974? Jennifer. ::snore::

The Flood 3: End Game
Sorry I haven't changed the quiz for awhile, but as I've said before, getting online has been a hassle lately. I have to say that I'm a little shocked at the Bond quiz results. Pierce Brosnan was voted as your favorite Bond by a big margin. 67%, while Sean Connery and Roger Moore tied at 17%. I voted for Pierce, but I really thought that most people would say Sean Connery. Hmmm. We'll see how the new guy does in Casino Royale. The new quiz is about your favorite flavor/character Otter Pop. I love Otter Pops...Really I do. Except for the corner-of-the-mouth pain you get when sucking on it.
So, we moved our stuff back in today (HOORAY!) The contractor still has a few things to finish, but for the most part it's all done. Hopefully we'll be able to start sleeping here on Monday. I'm so close... So close to getting the HELL out of Grandma's. ::sigh:: K... I'm tired, and I need to take a shower and get ready for my evening.
I'll leave you with this. Hopefully you all have gone to the link on the right for The Best Page In The Universe. If you haven't, you suck. However, it's not too late. For real... I love Maddox and I'm telling you, you need him in your life. For a sample take his How To Spot A Pedophile quiz. Good times. Enjoy.
By the way, my result for the quiz was:
You guessed 12 of 19 correctly (%63.2). Your grade: C-

Coachella 06
Here is a picture of Daft Punk rockin' everyone's world!

For more Coachella photos go to http:/music.ign.com/articles/704/704180p.1html
All in all I would say that Coachella was pretty cool. There were some disappointments (Madonna... That means you missy!), and I don't know that it was as great as it should have been for the cost, but I'm so glad I went. On Saturday we saw Franz Ferdinand (they rule!), Depeche Mode (one of my favorites of all time...And they were great!), and then finished the night off with Daft Punk. They FUCKING ROCKED THE HOUSE!!! Seriously... I can't say enough about them... Totally amazing, everyone was dancing and having a great time. It almost made me forget about how bad my feet hurt. (Seriously, I think the "grass" in the field was actually concrete...Major foot pain.) I want to see Daft Punk again so bad now!
Then on Sunday we missed James Blunt (sadness...), but we did see Paul Oakenfold (he is amazing... no surprise there, but it was way too hot to be in the tent dancing...we tried. Eventually we gave up and settled for sitting outside the tent and just listening to his chubby grooves. Good times. : D) however, what's the deal with his long hair? It makes him look like a child molester. Not a great look on you Paul. I'm just saying...eww. After getting some drinks, we enter the Madonna portion of the day. ::sigh:: K...Let me just say that I cried I was so disappointed. Don't get me wrong...I'm sure that she rocked. Of course she did, it's Madonna. My disappointment wasn't a result of her performance, but from the poor set up for her show. She performed in the same tent that Daft Punk was in the night before (where we were outside the tent also, but the sound was great.), and granted there was A LOT more people there to see her, but literally I couldn't even tell you what songs she sang. The sound was so horrible that you couldn't hear it AT ALL!! I can't even say that at least I saw a small blip of her... Nope. No such luck. I saw her face once on the screen and that was it. No sound, couldn't see = shit show. No kidding, after the first song so many people just turned around and left because it was a waste of time. GOD IT PISSES ME OFF! Poor Jake. He had to deal with me crying, but man, I've waited a lifetime to see her, and to not even be able to hear it, it was heartbreaking. I knew I wasn't going to be able to see, but not to even be able to tell what songs she was singing?! We weren't even that far out of the tent... Not far from where we had been for Daft Punk. All they had to do was put a fucking speaker facing outside the tent and it would have been problem solved. So, if any of you out there are all bummed about missing her, don't worry. You didn't miss anything, literally. So, after what I'm guessing was 2 or 3 songs we left and took advantage of the short lines for food. : D Then it was onto Tool. This was my first time seeing them, and they didn't disappoint. They were so incredible...Everything I thought they would be. Rock on Tool... Rock on. They were also my favorite along with Daft Punk.
The rest of the time can be summed up as follows: waiting in lines. Whether at the airport, in LA traffic (we had a 3 hour drive from LAX to our hotel, and a 2 hour drive from the concert to our hotel...mmmm yummy.), traffic getting in and out of the parking at the concert (seriously, after 6 years you'd think they'd have a better system to get people in and out), drinks, food, bathrooms, etc. It was all just one big line. If I go again there are definitely things I would do different now that I know what to expect from the whole experience, I would be better prepared next time.
Some of my favorite snipets of conversation I overheard at the show:
"Oooh, there's a reception spot over here." (no cell service anywhere...oi!)
"Are you starting to feel that stuff yet?"
"I guess I'll just stand back here and take everyone's sloppy seconds." (heard at the mist fan)
"Sometimes shrooms grow there..." (This was said by a guy behind us on the LONG walk back to the car which took us by a bunch of horse stables that reeked of shit! It was so gross, so he started singing a song about shit. lol.)
"Hey everyone...I'm fucking stoned!" (said by a guy waiting for the port-o-potties.)

P.S. On a unrealted note...I finally got my high speed working. Woo Hoo...finally no more dial up!
Happy Birthday to Me!
So far today on my birthday I've spilled coffee on myself, put my hand in an ashtray, and I'm fighting my computer trying to get my high speed working. ::sigh:: It can only get better right?
