Thursday Night what-nots…

Rick Astley won some sort of what not award at the MTV Europe award! ROCK!!!

And in other news – I’ve have a SHITTY SHIT-tAy week! So, my new good buddy Allison pulled me (all but physically) out of the house and we all went to Theo’s for drinks and other whatnots including playing fashion police!

Here are the quotes of the night, both from Allison soon to be Mrs. De’Jay!

“There is now a small country that is out of bleach.” RE: a VERY blonde gal- too much blonde even for me – and, well, that’s hard to do! HA!

“There’s so much crotch showing in this bar, honey, no one’s even noticed your bow!” RE: said shirt dress/shirt-without-tights gal who asked if her bow was tied straight – NO ONE CARES! No one noticed – except me… I’ll take one eating disorder please…
DOUBLE HA!!

I really wish I would have thought of those! Genius I tell you, genius!

My only quote of the night, all I could muster was – damn it! there’s beef on my Mexican pizza – and if you defer back to a very first post of mine – I do LOVE my Mexican pizza with no meat (cow, moo – whatever works for the drive thru operator) NOR red sauce from Taco Hell. If you need a refresher on that, check out the link to a very first post of mine – just click on the hyper link thingy!
It was a good night… I’m very glad Allison took me out!
And alas – I have an 8:30 (yes in the morning) presentation with some uber important people – I hereby call it a night early… BOO!
Happy Friday to all!!!

Could it be!!!!!! MORE SEX AND THE CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could I BE any more excited! and if for some reason you are in disbelief of this statement … click here (it’s a brief synopsis of literally how far I went for the first movie this May)

More ‘Sex’ on the way, Cattrall says
LONDON – Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte will return in a sequel to the hit big screen version of “Sex and The City,” according to Kim Cattrall.
During an interview on Britain’s “The Paul O’Grady Show,” the actress told guest host, and frequent Access Hollywood correspondent, Mel B, “We will do the sequel next summer,” the BBC reported.
Cattrall noted that it has been “difficult getting everybody who’s so incredibly busy all together at the same time.”
Regardless of their busy schedules, Cattrall said she and her co-stars are excited to visit the famed characters again.
“We wanted to the first time, and now we’re hopefully doing it again for the second time,” she said.
Cattrall also squashed any rumors of any “Sex” strife on the set, saying, she “loved those women.”
Sarah Jessica Parker told Access’ Billy Bush back in April that doing another movie was up to the “Sex” addicts.
“We’ll see,” Parker said. “We are back because of the good graces of the audience. They really are the determining factor.”
Parker and Cattrall aren’t the only ones excited about the reported return of NYC’s hottest ladies — HBO, the network which first aired the series, wants to see it on the big screen too.
During the network’s annual TCA Press Tour in July, top HBO execs said there is “enormous interest” by all studios behind the hit movie to make a sequel.
“They’re trying with our help to put that together now,” HBO’s programming group and West Coast operations president, Michael Lombardo told reporters. “When that happens, how long between, can’t say. But there’s absolutely interest.”
And an older, wiser and married Carrie Bradshaw won’t be the only thing “Sex” fans can toast their cosmos to — well, at least their virgin-cosmos to!
“Sex” author Candace Bushnell told Access in September that she has signed a deal “to write two young adult books about Carrie Bradshaw’s teenage years.”
And who would Bushnell like to see step into the role made famous by Sarah Jessica Parker if her new “Sex” prequel book was to be adapted for TV or film?
“I don’t know … Miley Cyrus!” Bushell said.

Election Elation 08

America has spoken, loud and clear and it is an absolute amazing chunk of history that we are able to share! No matter whom YOU voted for, YOU voted in the single most important election of YOUR life. YOU voted in an election with the highest voter turnout in decades. YOU voted in an election in which there was a 50/50 chance that a woman or an African American would be at the helm of our country. YOU voted in a time where there was so much speculation that it forced everyone to get behind something, to get out there and VOTE!
It is amazing, every bit of it!
Personally, I am extremely excited with the outcome. I am also glad that my entire family will not be joining my sister in Chile – because yes, that was an option.
I went to the Washington County Democrats watch party at the Fayetteville Town Center last night. It was very crowded, much more so than I expected actually – but we were pleasantly surprised. It was a sea of blue! There was an absolute ERUPTION when CNN announced … and the winner is OBAMA! Actually, I saw from my sister in Chile, that CNN International had actually announced it about 6 minutes prior to the states so I felt like I knew something early… =)

It is no doubt our country is in need of change, and it would have happened no matter who won actually. George Bush should have been gone 4 years ago, but it is pretty clear that both parties were very ready to get him out of the way along with his war and his policies.
If you continue to remain sceptical about the Obama administration, I would like to tell you to keep praying and keep you head up – the world IS going to continue to turn and your prayers and your civic, civilian duty, as an American needs to keep up with that. And no, that does not mean that you should pray for something bad to happen to President Obama, that is not very nice. I was appalled to see what some people were writing on their Facebook statuses about the man who is now our President – still bold face lies. The thing that gets me the most is that people still jump to the conclusion that he is a Muslim when in fact he is not. Yes, there is Muslim heritage and religious practice in his family – SO WHAT! Some of you may be German – are you a Nazi? Should one jump to the conclusion that just because there is a certain negative spot in the course of your heritage or it’s community that you too are a bad seed? NO! That in itself IS NOT THE CHRISTIAN WAY TO THINK!!!
So again, thank YOU for voting in this historic event. A special thanks to Ohio and Pennsylvania too!!! =)

Final Tailgate of the year: Arkansas vs. Tulsa

This past week end was the final home game in Arkansas, this means the final tail gate. It was a short tail gate and pretty calm as well since most of us were still hanging over from the previous nights’ Halloween Party. I made chili but it was pretty warm out side so it wasn’t a great occasion to eat piping hot chili – I was super bummed, but oh well…

A special guest appearance by the king him self was a fun surprise – actually we have no idea who he belonged to, but it was amusing watching him try to catch a football.

The really good “last tail gate” was last weekend and has it’s own dedicated post below.
Here’s to a good season of tail gating, no so much a good football season, but it was great that the HOGS actually won this weekend beating Tulsa in a really good game. The bigger football news of the weekend was that Texas LOST – ha! They got beat by Texas Tech. That was super fun to watch especially with a mixed crowd!

I win I win I win!!!
