OMF & TIMF

So, this kind of weird, but extremely flattering thing started happening to me when I went out.

Back story for the TL;DR generation, some people like the way I look.

And occasionally, they claim to want to take my picture for a “blog," but I've always been super suspicious of people asking to take my picture (think, “you wanna be famous don'tchya?" type paranoia).

But whatever, I've been obliging, what does it cost me?  I feel mad goobery when I get my picture taken.  And really, how bad could they be exploiting me? It's just a picture, in a really public place, so whatevs, right?

Anyhoo, I finally get around to google searching this shit. Part of me waited this long because I had to work up the courage to 1) see if these pictures were really for a “blog," like these people claimed and 2) if I was good enough to make the final blog cut (what if the pictures were bad? I'm awkward in like all pictures!!!).

I found them today.

Oh and you know I was LI-VID when I saw that they had the nerve, THE NERVE, to crop my fucking Nike's out. 

I think I look like a goober, but I appreciate that people like the way I look.

I'm gonna go practice my somber cool picture poses now.

Best,
Jenny

Things to watch

Thanks to the internets, there are now a bajillion things to watch, at any time, at your convenience, and in high definition.

With all this content out, it's hard to catch everything.

But if you were gonna ask me for suggestions, here are my top five things I'd suggest to watch this year:

1. Paul

2. Skyfall

3. Sherlock (the BBC series with Benedict Cumberbatch)

4. The Bitch From Apt 23 (cancelled already, but still a solid 2 seasons of awesomeness)

5. In the Mind of a Chef with David Chang

And shout out to:

New Girl. Season 1 is on Netflix.
Pitch Perfect (I love musicals (don't judge me)).
Katy Perry's: Part of Me (Really. Don't judge me.)
Star Trek: Into Darkness (Benedict Cumberbatch can do no wrong)

Did I mention how much I love Netflix?

Best muthafuckas,
Jenny

Nathan's Christmas Gift Guide

December is my favorite month, hands down.  I love the holiday season.

It's not just about the gifts, although you probably think more about them than anything else when it comes to the holidays. No, I'm not that cynical "Christmas is just a commercial holiday created by big corporations and greeting card companies to prey on American consumerism."  But in my opinion, you think more about the gift buying aspect of the holidays because you don't HAVE to think about all the other great things about the holiday season.  They just come effortlessly.  Like the decorations (beautiful and always kind of personal). Or the short cold days that make you feel warmer and cozier inside.  The holiday sweets made with love or shared with love with friends and family.  And of course, the generosity. Showing your friends and family that you love them and appreciate them, but conveniently not having to say all that mushy feeling stuff. Yuck.

So, with that said, to take away the doubt in your mind and second guessing "is this the right size? Will he like this toy? Will jenny rue the day nathan opened this gift?" I've made a gift buying guide for Nathan, because I care. You're welcome friends and family! And of course, thank you for including our son in your holiday generosity. Love you all.

1. Size 2t in pants
2. Size 3t in shirts
3. He loves toy cars (please no toddler cars, metal die cast only (ie cheap hot wheels cars $0.97/ea))
4. We refuse to buy them, but he is a fan of Cars themed Squinkies (thanks youtube! Not.)
5. Monster trucks (not Cars themed)
6. Books
7. Thomas the Train And Friends toy trains (more specifically he doesn't have Cranky yet ;) )
8. Puzzles for toddlers
9. Oh yah, shoe size 8 or 9

Thanks in advance and happy shopping!

Treasure Island Music Festival 2012, Sunday

My memory in bullet point form (minus the bullets):

Awesome parking. $30 bucks well spent.

Eating chimichurrie fries from 4505. Reeeeally gooood.

Hospitality! Although, I prefer bands that have fun and act slightly more humble (wow, do I sound like douche! but...), especially with this kind of fun music. The band seemed kind of, I don't know, cunty.  Example: in a vaguely bored and subtle foreign accent "We're so excited to be playing on this beautiful vessel."  Dooon't doooo thaat.  Motherfucker, it's an island. Treasure Island Music Festival.  Separate thought, but a concurring moment: The sit down seduction. Boys hitting on girls. You come and sit down, very very close to single girls and you settle into a sensual reclining pose. Is this what the kids are doing now a days?

Intense people watching. Stylish, weird, Wearing.Those.Boots/Middrift/Stockings/Leggings/etc., boobs.

Naked lady statue shade

+ waiting for someone to fall off the tiny trampolines 

+ bananas & chocolate 

funnel cake

= best funnel cake ever.

Korean 

bbq 

tacos, ehhhh.

Posting up in the intermittent shade of the ferris wheel. 
Coffee, orange juice, water, snap.
Orange juice + mango = delicious.
Mango juice + orange juice = why would you do that?
Disgusting.

Blonde bitchhh. let. me. tell. you. Hust. ling. us. for. some. water. She was cool. Until she drank straight out of Dom's water bottle without asking. What is wrong with you?

Bumping into co workers. Work talk. But, fuuuuuun.

Other bands.


 Porto potty theory. Go where no one else goes. So walk to the farthest porto potties. But what if everyone else is thinking the same thing? Pee and poo particles. Kitty litter for humans.








I noticed, the mohawk hairdo is big with fem/hip seemingly gay dudes and lesbian asian chicks. I'm somewhere in between.  I'm asian, I like dudes and I have a vagina.  It is only slightly narcissistic to hit on me when we look exactly the same, girl washing your hands across from me. And no, I didn't just make up that husband story to let you down easy. 
I am married to a dude with a pre op penis, who chooses to live his life as a man.
Got it.

BEST COAST!!! 

Dance dance dance dance dance, 

sit down, 

slow dance, 

DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE.

I think it was Silent Disco next. Weird, but cool. Submerged in music, but dancing in silence. Don't yell over the music ya dummy! Take the headphones off and talk at a normal volume. Me, waack. Just a lil.

M83. Chill. Music made visual. Perfect at moments.

Gossip. Waaaackin. Shamefully. People. Looking. Me. Feel Weird.

The XX. Yes. Awesome. Minimal. Perfect. Smooth. Ughhhhh. That's that shit I DO like. Feelings. Emotions in music form. And influenced by dance music. They make that statement make sense.

Last porto potty experience at the end of the night. SQUAT! Don't sit down. Thank God for portable sinks! And I forgot to mention the dance that goes with pumping the foot pedal for water. There's a dance.
 
Merch table to buy the Best Coast and Hospitality albums. Sold out. Impulsed bought a $25 dollar tshirt instead. No Jenny. Don't do that. I'm gonna have to wear the shit out of this shirt.




Doin hipster things with mah frenzz.

True Heartbreak

Did I ever tell you the story about Mikey cutting my favorite pair of sweatpants into shorts?

I was devastated.
