Superheroes Sans Work

Si las mujeres escribieran Cosmopolitan

Ya ven que Cosmopolitan se las da de muy feminista y no se qué, no? A mi no me engañan, Cosmo está escrita por hombres! Y la prueba es que si Cosmo fuera escrita por mujeres, éstas serían los articulos que veríamos:

Sexy manipuladora / 10 pasos para curar su %$#@ dependencia maternal

Depilación láser / Cómo hacer que tu novio pague por ella

Jason Statham "al natural" / Poster 1 de 20

"Me encanta que no sepas cocinar" / 30 frases que él quiere decir

Matrimonio / Cómo aplazarlo lo más posible

PMS / 50 razones por las que claro que tienes la razón

Aburrido y...

Aburrido... y vagabundo:
1. Viste jorts (shorts de mezclilla), camiseta de Texas (fajada), Nikes blancos (con calcetones), y cangurera (de Miami). Pide direcciones al próximo "mercadou".
2. Entra a clases que ni son tuyas, en Universidades a las que ni vas.
3. Lee todo el periódico en un 7-Eleven. Pero "El Sol". Comenta sobre las fotos grotescas a los transeúntes.
4. Vende tu celular. Pero primero anúncialo en los clasificados de masajes de El Norte.
5. Ve a Starbucks y pide un Venti latte vainilla, doble espresso, helado pero con poco hielo, shot de espresso, shot de vainilla, shot de whisky, y con poquititito espacio para leche semidescremada. Haz que te repitan tu orden para confirmar. Tres veces.
6. Ponte una gorra del CENSO 1990 y haz preguntas a gente en la calle. O peor: casa por casa. Pretende que tu iPod es grabadora.
7. Haz reir a un gato. (Es posible).
8. Vende tu pasaporte. De todos modos nunca vas a ningún lado.

Aburrido... y hambriento:
1. Deja de fumar mariguana pero ya.
2. Busca comida y migajas entre los cojines de tu sillón.
3. Ve a un restaurant y negocia platillos ofreciéndote a lavar platos desde un principio. Al menos eres honesto.
4. Tómate los 8 vasos de agua recomendados por día, pero de un jalón.
5. Piensa que eres anoréxico (a).
6. Ve al mercado Juárez: 30 plátanos por $5

Aburrido... y sin pareja:
1. Lánzate al próximo evento en el bar del Crowne Plaza. Pianista maduro, piñas coladas y alfombras de peluche. Algo más?
2. Ve al VIPs más cercano y saca a bailar a señoras al ritmo de la música Mexicana que siempre tienen.
3. Invita a salir a ex-novios (as) de tus papás.

Jason's Birthday

It had to be an important date. I cooked and cooked and ate so much this past week testing recipes but I finally managed to cook something edible from beginning to end!
The menu: horchata, sopa de tortilla & a birthday cake. I'm so proud.
Welcome my new baby, Breadstick Kitchens Inc.

The Weekend Coming Up

Tonight: Babasonicos at Congress Theater... more music!!
Tomorrow: Jason's birthday, weeeee
Day after tomorrow: sleep the weekend hangover off :)

Matisyahu For Botisyahu*

I went to see Matisyahu yesterday yesssss
I finally went to Ravinia also, nice looking woods! (that's what ____ said).

Anyway, so after 2 weeks listening to Matis nonstop while running or cooking or driving, it was time, and so we went.
The concert started at 9pm and we had to be there early to find a nice spot (it was an outdoor thing), so after fighting Ravinia fauna and eating our gourmet sandwiches, we had some fun.

Sliding so much in bug spray that mosquitoes didn't even bother bothering anymore, lying on a towel listening to live reggae and alternating between that and looking at the stars, I remembered how much I missed being outside watching the sky... until 1030pm on the dot when the park decided to turn off the music [middle of the song and everything] because that's when they must stop the party, for peace of the neighbors. Thanks.

Either way I liked it, I think I'm going to start wearing Tzitzyot and legally change my name to Botisyahu :)

Oh, hilarious event: Jason peed in a parking lot at night on our way home hahaha

It's Dog the Bounty Hunter!

Design Over Countries*

Yay, logos for countries!
Some of them are cute, some are malicious; but they're all interesting.
I dare you to figure out what's going on with Kenia's design of a Mexican sombrero.


Logos with love:
Argentina, Canada, Czech Republic #2, Holland, Japan #2, New Zealand, Thailand.

Logos with much love:
Estonia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea.

Logos with comments:
Estonia: "Welcome to Boronas".
Colombia: "We'll take your heart, burn it, and send it to your family".
Bermuda: "...literally".
The Bahamas: "Welcome to Microsoft".
Bhutan: "We secretly love mortarboards".
Kenia: "We're repeatedly confused with Mexico".
Malasia (truly Asia): "We rime divine".
Pakistan: "We're totally lying".
Tunisia: "We just won't give any details".

Piece of wonderment:
How come there's no USA logo? Or at least one for an American city?
Is it because the they can't create a "world" logo for moral reasons? Or because they're just not welcoming anyone else? jojojooj

Super Dance Republica!!

Quick adventures in the city!
This weekend Angela and I went to dance salsa at Millennium Park. I danced for 3 hours with people 3 times my age, that way I at least looked like I knew what I was doing.
Age is dance wisdom!

Now Tango Night is happening in 2 weeks... will we look good together?

I [Super] Want

For life on the music side, the MP3 AMP.
It gives me the music chills like when I look at Jason's real amps. Good times.
Is it my birthday yet?

Oh hey, speaking about birthdays, today is Yorch's birthday. Happy Sweet 32 :)

Weird things: PMS, biking, Johnny Depp, and Moses

So i tried to learn how to bike again.
The last time i rode a bike my current butt weight was my total weight; I couldn't even remember how to find proper balance and I kept having all these cuts and bruises flash-backs associated with my last bike ride, 20 years ago. Awful, dear.
Five minutes into the "biking", my shoulders were shrimp red and i had had enough of Jason yelling at me.
Biking sucks; lazy people use you own legs and arms, do sports! I wish i didn't live in a flat State :(

In even sadder news, I read The Notebook in 4 days. Like, the novel... If you thought the movie was sad, read the book.
It's so perfect for PMS, it'll turn you into the sweetest child. Seriously.

And now the happy handsome news.
Friday I was trying to get on Jackson when Angela and I noticed closed streets, cameras, trailers and jumpy girls: Johnny Depp's movie was being filmed! Oh that's the dream.
I immediately called Jason and told him I was coming home instead of chasing Mr. Depp. Bold move, some have said.

Lastly, it's a miracle! I think God, Moses or someone either Jewish or Catholic sent me a book about Moses I didn't order. Spooky! Biblical picture attached.



Then pretty sunny yet B&W pictures:
