Okay, this week's entry is dedicated to "Holly." She's one of my best friends. I met her at work/school. She and I hit it off pretty much instantly despite both of us being introverted and guarded. We went to lunch together once, and from there on it was fast friends from just friendly acquaintances. This is funny because I'm a capitalist and shes a socialist.
She's been there for me a lot. When I've been abused, hurt, picked up and tossed aside. She's been there when I"m happy, when I've had to make tough choices. She's seen my ups and my downs, seen me at my absolute worst - hyperventilating, freaking out, losing my temper - and still is my friend, without judging me. Despite this, she does care enough to give it to me straight when I need to be pulled in check.
I love the time I get to spend with her. I love having a close (female) friend that I can share things with - who also shares with me. We have so much fun with our exploits, cafes, dinners, baking, wacky stories, etc.
Holly's really calm and a lot of fun. She keeps me grounded. When we go shopping, we always find fun and crazy adventures. She's one of very, very few people who has actually made it past all my boundaries and walls and into a place where I trust her and let her in.

Whaaaaat? Wednesday
Okay, this is Whaaaaat? Wednesday because I don't know exactly what to make of it.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123577193845697061.html
It is absolutely excessive, superfluous, pompous, unnecessary. Seriously, it's ridiculous. Let's dissect it:
> It's freaking huge! Unless you're the von Trap family, this is just huge! Seriously - how much space does one family need?
> It's on a beach. Not only is it huge, it is arrogant enough to say to the Florida coast, "Hey! Here I am! I am DARING you! You can't catch me! Neener neener!!" I say... House, meet Hurricane.
>This place claims to be green friendly, but the amount of wood used is enough to rescue over 105 acres of the quickly fading rain forests. So now, you can satisfy your ego and make yourself look good to the press. "Relax! It's totally green!!! Except for the fact that I decimated a rain forest, but hey... I saved a bit of energy, right? Am I right?"
> The place uses energy efficient lighting mixed with solar panels, but there are so many fixtures in this house that the advantage is completely offset. The place still uses more power than the average household.
> Let me share a ratio with you. 7:11. Now, in a house like this, you ask yourself. Is that the ratio of bathrooms to bedrooms? No, the opposite. There are 7 bedrooms and 11 full bathrooms. In case you need, you know, 1 for your bathing and 1 for your.... yeah. We won't touch this. And don't even say "4 guest bathrooms." Because chances are the guest will either be using 1 of the 7 bedrooms (complete with bathroom) for their stay OR the bathroom that is near to the in home movie theatre. No need for 4 guest bathrooms.
> The floors are made of water, trapped plant life, glass, and LED lights. What was that claim to be a green friendly house? Is that going up to smoke yet? Because right now would be a good time for them to claim insanity at the time that claim was made.
> In case the beach isn't close enough, the living room and floor to ceiling wine storage have built in aquariums, open glass, plant life, aquatic life, and - you guessed it - lots of light, so these creatures never get to sleep, and neither does that power expenditure.
> Oh yeah, the massively landscaped gardens outside, including stone bridges and low lights to reflect light off the water. Turns out, that water is suitable for swimming trips, so if you're too lazy to walk through the yard to the beach - good news! You don't have to! We won't discuss how much ecology had to be completely ripped up to make this yard possible, and we also won't mention the pitiful attempt at making it seem natural by adding a bunch of displaced tropical plants to the yard.
> Oh are you bored with the beach and your yard? Worry not. We've wasted even more space with a huge pool, complete with floating sun terrace! Because, by gosh, if you want to swim in the shade, or get out of the pool for that mixed drink the ot cabana boy serves, why the heck not!
> So how are they justifying this excessive amount of pools and ponds in the green plan? Well, naturally - having that much water makes the house 1 or 2 degrees cooler, which "reduces cooling costs." Funny, 1 or 2 degrees never made that much a difference in my house, and it's not anywhere close to this size. Give me a break - I'm not that dumb, guys. Not to mention, wouldn't that INCREASE heating costs in the winter, thus negating the benefits? Or have you installed heaters in all of these fixtures, making the house even less green friendly.
> Tacky interior. Now, sure, you can throw some extra money into it, sink another couple mill on top of its cost, and fix this, but the interior designer must have been out of his or her mind. It's so freaking tacky! Taffeta is so 3 decades ago!! Too much brightness, too much blue and white, and the dark stain of the woods doesn't go well with the brightness of the rest of it. The colors, at best, simply abide each other, and at worse are definitely not easy on the eye.
> LEED. Those people decide whether houses are green freindly or not. Thus far, they've been quite brilliant in not giving this monstrocity the certification. It would ruin the integrity of the LEED certification for everyone else! According to the LEED consultant, the house was penalized for its SIZE. Not the excessive wastes, the environment ruined, the huge costs of keeping a place this big and all its luxuries running, the negated energy savings, etc.... but the size itself. They are expecting certification any day now. While I'd very much like to say, "hah! keep dreaming!" I am worried, because, well... throw enough money at something, and you get whatever you want. Considering the house itself is tagged at about 30 million dollars, I'd say they're willing to toss some extra change to get that LEED certification so they can feel better about themselves.

Whaaaaaat? Wednesday
This week's Whaaaaat? Wednesday goes to a guy who gets the great idiot award.
In Bradenton, FL, (incidentally, I've been there on more than one occasion), a man asked a stranger at a Starbucks if he could borrow the laptop real quick to check his Facebook.
Now, this question is innocent enough, and not offensive. I've been asked the same before. The man's answer is also not uncommon. I would have said no, too. I don't even let my friends on my laptop, much less a complete stranger.
What earns BOTH of these people spots on my Whaaaaaaaat? Wednesday entry is that, upon hearing no:
1) The stranger grabbed and ran off with the laptop. He's now facing felony charges of, get this, robbery... by Sudden Snatching?? Bet that hasn't ben tried in a while. Really... FB? Was FB REALLY worth felony charges??
2)Dude?!?! How the HECK did he manage to snatch AND RUN OFF WITH your laptop?!?! If it was mine, his hands wouldn't have even been able to make contact with it, ,much less grab and run off with it!!
The other Whaaaaaaat? Wednesday is a late entry that I received from a friend of mine, gnimsh. This kid is.... Whaaaaat? The second half is even better than the first because he breaks out the steering wheel! Just watch. Seriously.

Time Out Tuesday
Time for another Time Out Teusday!
This week: Friend's ex girlfriend. The Scarlet Woman. Upskirters.
1) I have a friend whose ex girlfriend won't leave him alone. She's always asking him this or that, nagging about certain things, getting him to make decisions for her. She doesn't seem to get that he broke up with her because she was like this. The other night, they got into a bit of a fight. I won't divulge any extra details, but suffice it to say this girl needs some time to herself to reflect on who she is and that she needs to fight for things and learn on her own, without running to him when she wants to know something, and without getting nasty and snippy wth him when he's done something she's jealous of.
2) The Scarlet Woman. She used to be a friend of mine, but I got wise. I confided some things to her and she tuned around and spread nasty rumors. She systematically worked her way in with every single person I talked to regularly (especially my male friends) and convinced them to believe lies about me. She's come back recently for grad school, and she's already starting back at this. She's gotten herself right in the center of a group of the poeple I feel quite comfortable around and made such a spot for herself, that sometimes I will come up and she makes me feel like I've invited myself into someone else's circle. She definitely makes me feel like there's no room for me, and it just plain sucks. I'm the girl that always crashes guy's night at the Name Of Sports Bar. I'm the girl they laugh with like one of the guys. Not you. And sure, I don't mind if you want to join us. That's great because you're fun. Join us. But joining us doesn't mean replacing me, talking about me in ways that make them alienate me in exchange for you. That's just nasty and unnecessary.
3) Upskirters. Recently, there's been a lot of panty shots on the internet. With the advent of cell phone cameras, blue tooth, etc, it's become easy to snap a shot up a woman's skirt without her noticing. These shots are now being posted all over the internet, and that's just ridiculous. Stop it, you pervs. Women already have enough to worry about without needing to be afraid of panty shots being taken in broad daylight.

Feeling Generous
I got this from Sweltering Celt, http://www.theswelteringcelt.com/blog , and I've been in such a great mood lately, I decided to do it too!
Here it is: The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me! My choice. For you.
This offer does have some restrictions and limitations:
1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make!
2. What I create will be just for you.
3. It’ll be done this year. {might be a little while}
4. You have no clue what it’s going to be (frankly, neither do I at this point) and you can not make requests. Who knows? Not you, that’s for sure!
5. I reserve the right to do something extremely strange.
The catch?
Oh, yes, there is one of those. The catch is that you must repost this on your blog and offer the same to the first 5 people who do the same on your blog.
The first 5 people to do so and leave a comment telling me they did win a FAB-U-LOUS homemade gift by me!

Friend Friday
Friday's theme is where I talk about how awesome my friends are! I'll showcase a new friend of mine each week to tout the awesomeness of. Names have been changed to protect the innocent. If their online ID is semi-public, I'll use it. Otherwise I will refer to them with pseudos. :)
Today's friend? TheJadeGeek. AKA JalenJade. AKA my boyfriend. :) He is without a doubt amazing, and therefore the first Friend Friday post is dedicated to him.
He and I started off as friends typing. We got to talking, though, and realized how much we had in common. We'd both said how bad we were on the phone, and yet that first phone call was filled with conversation and lasted for hours. We've talked almost every day and night since.
I tend to get a lot of magazines in the mail for free. I never complain because so far I get free Glamour, Shape, Vogue, Elle Decor, Forbes, Inc, Fast Company.... and Bridal Magazine.
I remember this night so clearly. I love gorgeous, formal dresses. It's a weakness of mine. I think that a girl can't help but feel beautiful when she's dressed in clothes designed to work with her curves, to show off her body, to make her the most gorgeous woman in the world. Wedding dresses do just this. So I was thumbing through thw magazine, and ended up visiting some of the designers' websites. I was sending links to him, comparing dresses on which ones we each thought were exquisite.
He mumbled something that he didn't want to tell me. We have a rule, though, that if you start a thought, or give any indication that you've had it, you have to finish it. I finally, finally pulled it out of him. That was the night that he confessed to loving me. It was also the night that I confessed to loving him. We sat on this for quite a while though.
Eventually, that love couldn't be sat on anymore. He took care of me. Every single night, no matter how neurotic, paranoid, or ridiculous I got, he called. He called to tell me he loves me, he will still love me in the morning, sleep peacefully. He made time for me, and he showed me every single day how much he loved me, how much he still loves me. He makes me feel like I am worth something, and because of this, I am learning to have confidence in myself.
And so we ended up together. He is mine, and I am his, and we love each other deeply. I know I will love him every day of my life, and he continues to show me that same love every day. Our relationship grows stronger every day.
We are still such great friends, too. We watch television together, we spend time in each other's presence... even if we don't say or do anything, we just know the other is there. We talk a lot about just general things, sharing laughs, miserable days, and anything that comes to mind. He is my best friend.
I couldn't ask for a better friend. He's what I've been looking for all this time. He doesn't really like super-public mushiness, and I, while being slightly more okay with PDA, tend to share his sentiment on overly mushy and sappy couples, so you likely won't hear another entry like this... ever. But this is Friend Friday so I have made an exception to that rule and hope that he won't mind that it was made, just this once.
I love you, JJ.

Whaaaaaaat? Wednesday
So the Wednesday theme is Whaaaaaaat? Wednesday. Something totally random, hilarious, or just plain stupid will be posted.
Today's first Whaaaaaat? Wednesday is the state if Utah. Why?
> Cookout on the Highway!!! On the same day (though, sadly, different interstates) a beer truck crashes, spilling beer all over the interstate, and a hamburger truck crashes, leaving hamburgers all over the highway. Bystander quoted as saying, "There was meat everywhere." No... really??
http://www.kutv.com/content/news/local/story/Wheres-The-Beef-Truck-Crash-Litters-Freeway-With/7wEGHe02WEyMw6bf2ww7Ow.cspx
> Undone by Undies! A heroic woman chases down a burglar (or should I say up... a hill...) and finally nabs him by his underoos! That's right - she gave him a wedgie so bad he conceded. A tip to you hoodlums out there: not only are saggy pants NOT a cool fashion statement... they also hinder your speedy getaway.
http://www.kutv.com/content/news/local/story/Would-Be-Burglar-Snagged-By-A-Snuggie/Or7tjQbUq0KwbAlMRhLQBg.cspx
> Wal-Mart Wedding?! As TheJadeGeek points out, I forgot to mention the couple wo married in a Wal-MArt to save money. "Don't forget the Southern-Utah couple who wanted to save money so they got married in a Wal-Mart. (Where the groom works.) http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=148&sid=5601062 Total family size now, 9. 2 kids from him and 6 kids from her." Wow, that's worse than the Brady Bunch meeting the Jeffersons!
The next Whaaaaaat? Wednesday award goes to Southern Illinois University. Why? They plagiarized a report decrying plagiarism! http://techdirt.com/articles/20090207/1751003685.shtml Relly? You couldn't at least creatively rephrase it with your Thesaurus tool?
The final Whaaaaaaaat? Wednesday of the week goes to the cat lady. Not Angela - the other one. Everyone loves Hello Kitty these days, and it's become a bit of a cult classic. Along with transition from cute kiddie to cult classic came the introduction of Gothic Kitty - a black and grey, and much less perky, Hello Kitty model. This woman is selling real life gothic kittens. I know some might find it hilarious, but I am definitely against cruelty to animals.
