Rake up Colorado

My mother and I volunteer for the Democrats and as part of that they had a bunch of us work with the Volunteers of America for the 5th Annual Rake Up Colorado event this past weekend. Basically this is an event where volunteers rake leaves for seniors and disabled people who aren't able to do it themselves. This was the first time we've done this event... and I've got to say it will probably be the last, lol. Wow... I had no idea that raking was so hard. Never having lived in a house, I've never raked before. So, the whole thing was quite a shock for me. Raking leaves sucks balls! Big ones. Mom and I worked with another Democratic volunteer, Amy, who was so cute and so much fun to work with. Thank you dear baby Jesus for Amy. Amy had a better rake, and experience. ;D Priceless. lol We thought we were being so smart picking 2 houses out in our area rather than downtown (because then we're so close to home..right? This was a mistake.) See, the difference is that the yards downtown are MUCH smaller than the yards out by us. In fact, the two places we chose ended up being 2 farms. NOT so much fun. I twisted my ankle and have severe back pain still, but I am so glad that we went. It really does feel good to help people out. The second lady we helped was 82 and followed us around with her walker to keep us company. She cried when we left and kept calling us angels. It was really touching. Next time though, I'll be going for the book sorting at the library or something like that.

One of the Best SNL clips EVER!

My New Sugar Skull Tattoo

Shannon, Jake and I went to the Body Art Expo this weekend and I got a new tattoo. I got this sweet ass sugar skull and I fucking LOVE it! It came out so well! It's still swollen, bruised and a little scabby so I'll re post a picture once it's healed so you can see the color around the mouth better. Eventually I'll have flower work done around it and maybe add another skull next to it...who knows. I had my work done by Dave from Bloodshot Tattoo off of Hollywood and Vine in Hollywood, CA. He was so awesome. I was so glad that I chose him to do it. Jake had to leave early, otherwise I think that he probably would have had gotten one. He's been thinking about getting this one tattoo for years now, and I think he was closer than he'd ever been before, but him and Justin had tickets for the Rockies game... so it didn't happen. Oh well. Maybe he'll want to go and get it done somewhere in town now...we'll see. Anyway, just thought I'd share my new skull with you... I love it so much! :D

...Wow.

I enjoy getting emails from people around Halloween that have pictures of people and/or pets in their costumes... there are some really clever costumes out there. However... every now and then one comes through that just makes you wonder how that person EVER thought about that idea. This is one of those moments. I don't even know what to think. I'm horrified, yet I laugh. I'm disgusted, yet impressed at the creativity. You can't deny that the attention to detail is impressive. It's nice that the labia is represented..and his hair becomes her pubic hair. Nice... good work(?). ...Wow.

This is a billboard that has gone up here in Denver, in support of Ricky Williams. I love it and thought I'd share. To read more about this go to one of the following links.

Touche Terrorists.... Touche.

The terrorists tried to take me down... but little did they know this isn't my first time at the rodeo! I feel like I could die today because I've gone and got food poisoning for the second time in my life. I ate some leftover rice made last week...turns out that is where it came from. (The first time was from KFC coleslaw...which sucked balls because I really LOVED their coleslaw and I've never been able to bring myself to eat it since. Damn you KFC!) So, while I was online looking up food poisoning and trying to determine if it could even come from rice (rice!? it seems so innocent.) I found the following description of one of the many types of food poisoning. Please to enjoy.

Bacillus cereus: Causes mild illness with rapid onset of vomiting, with or
without diarrhea and abdominal cramping. It is associated with rice (mainly
fried rice) and other starchy foods such as pasta or potatoes. May also be used
as a potential terrorist weapon.

Did you catch that..."MAY ALSO BE USED AS A POTENTIAL TERRORIST WEAPON." Nice...real nice. All I wanted to do was have a light lunch....and BAM! terrorism strikes. Like I said though...having been down this road before (when KFC tried to take me out) this time I knew what was happening...and I've got to say that the first time was way worse. I was pucking for 2 days that time (lol... sorry again to my poor roommate who was emotionally traumatized for life because of all the vomit) and this time I've only vomited a few times...and I'm hoping that I might be done with that part. My body still hurts though... so I'm going to go try to lay down and not vomit. See ya.
