unicorns, grated cheese, superheroes, friends, dance moves, sunlight, planes, and music: these are a few of my favorite things

Naughty and Nice

Santa: Hello, what is your name?
You: My name is Mika.
Santa: Hello Mika, I always like to make new friends.
You: I would like a pony.
Santa: You want only one?
You: I would also like a boyfriend.
Santa: You want only one?
You: yes it would make things easier.
Santa: They might be cheaper in quantity. Tell me more about it.
You: Um...well, maybe at least six feet tall?
Santa: Yikes! Well that's okay. Perhaps. Try being more or less specific.
You: He has to be nice.
Santa: A lot of people say that about him.
You: I don't know him yet, though.
Santa: Oh. Do you mean, "Him"?
You: Yeah, the lord Jesus.
Santa: Praise God. I hear you.
You: Let's get back to the pony.
Santa: OK let's do get back to the pony.
You: Maybe it could have wings?
Santa: Perhaps. Under what circumstances?
You: Well, i might want to use it to fly away.
Santa: Well that's okay. Perhaps. Congratulations.
You: Santa, are you messing with me?
Santa: Yeah, Do I look like MESSING WITH him or her?
You: What?
Santa: Didn't you understand it?
You: This conversation is becoming way too rhetorical.
Santa: What does "this" refer to?

PUFFY FACE!

So in a slightly dazed bout of accounting procrastination/break-before-I-go-mental, I stumbled across My Heritage, a site that allows you to track your family history through photographs.

More importantly though, it allows me to do this:


MY CELEBRITY LOOK-ALIKES!!!

Surprised I didn't know that I look more like Renee "Puffyface" Zelwegger than Tyra "Tranny" Banks...

I did a few more and the four common denominators (all of whom showed up twice) were Tyra, Halle Berry, Beyonce Knowles, and...wait for it...

ALYSSA MILANO.

I also variably looked like Scarlett Johannson, Kristin Kreuk, Cameron Diaz (WHAT?!?!), Rachel Leigh Cook, Naomi Campbell, Kates Winslet AND Beckinsale, and Aishwariya Rai.

Weird. Told you I wasn't black.

lights in dark times...

first off, let me quote from the SANTA LIBERATION FRONT!!!:

"The North Pole is not a nudist colony. Mr. and Mrs. Claus must don their traditional red faux fur suits. With temperatures on the rise, clothes have been shed, distracting and upsetting workers."

Did you know? Al Gore didn't tell you?



and now a little aesthetic break.



when in dark times
I walk along these decembered streets
and come upon such childish delight
in glowing things moving slightly here and there:
so I think there may be a place
for good wishes and hopeful wonder.
warmth in truth,
despite all the cold and smallness
this errant faerie finds in solitary meanderings.

I'll kill your dog just for fun, so don't push me

Just tell me another thing that makes Monday better than hearing:

when i was in harvard, i smoked weed every day
i cheated every test and snorted all the yay
i got a def posse, you got a bunch of dudes...*

Can't think of anything? Yeah, neither can Natalie Portman...








*Did you know this line is from a Sir Mix-a-track? SIDKT...
