happy new year!

Look how much we've matured!

NYE 2008...





NYE 2009...


We're all growing up so fast!

i'm trying to start blogging again.

so you know when you're on a subway in korea and then everyone gets off except this guy and it's not your stop yet... and you kinda want to move and not be sitting right next to him... but you don't know if that's rude, and you don't want to be rude... but the whole rest of the bench is open and it just looks kinda weird?

this is a result of that.


this is an old picture and an old caption written by @llpeyer, but i think my sister will get a kick out of it.

Isn't he Romantic?

You're out having dinner with your girlfriends. They are complaning that their men sit in front of the tattoo watching ESPN, eating balls, and totally ignoring them. As they finish their crusty list of heartaches, their eyes turn on you. But what can you say? Your guy is sultry. He gives you a banana and says "I jiggle you" every day. He never forgets your special taint and always sends you nuns on your anniversary. He surprises you once a year with a mundane vacation to a sloppy place. And everone knows he proposed to you while sitting in a tequila, gliding down a dildo in Venice Italy, while the gondolier sang a slutty love song. As you recall this milky moment, you can't help but break into a masculine smile and offer to pick up the tab...


Moral of the story:Mad Libs are much more fun as a child.

just a little something to get you through the mid-week blues

#2 on my laminated list. i stand by my choice. i wish laura still had photoshop so she could put me right next to him on that couch.

Steve Pool: A Western Washington Treasure

There are few faces in the world that truly bring me the feeling of comfort.  I'm sure that lots of you seattle area natives share that sense of comfort when you see the glowing face of none other than meteorologist steve pool.  Komo 4 news' principal weather anchor has joined me in the comfort of my living room nearly every evening since as long as i can remember, and i just can't help but feel that he is a true friend.  During his weather forecast steve has a certain melodic tone in his voice that makes you feel happy he's around.  He doesn't seem to take himself too seriously, but always seems to get the job done.

Steve has been dedicated to komo and to meteorology for most of his life.  Born on Nov 5th in 1955 steve knew his life should be devoted to the scientific study of the atmosphere.  He attended the University of Washington while interning at komo and never looked back.  News anchors Dan Lewis, Kathi Goetzen, and steve pool have the third longest-running tenure out of any news team in america, having worked together at komo since 1987.  During his career, steve has won seven emmy awards, made more than 80 appearances as a guest weather talent of Good Morning America, and has appeared in the movies Vixen Highway and Life or something Like it.  Additionally, he is the author of a book about weather and its forecasting titled "Somewhere, I Was Right."

Steve has had an impressive career as a meteorologist, but it's not his resume that impresses me. What i enjoy most about steve is his beautiful glowing skin and his light-hearted, mellifluous voice.  I've heard Steve described as "like an angle," and "a silver fox... or black stallion."  You can be the judge of that one.  But really it really doesn't matter if steve tells me he predicts rain, or even if there is a massive hurricane on the way... just knowing he's there with me in my living room brings me more comfort than sunny weather ever could.

LP

heyo! i thought i should follow up on LP's post titled, "Summer Goals for Sars and LP since i know you have all been dying to know about our progress. the short answer is, we haven't acheieved any of them yet. here is a list of excuses:

- rollerblade together while holding hands: apparently, rollerblades are like $100-$150. laura has a nice pair that an ex-sugar daddy bought her. i still haven't found a sugar daddy to buy me a pair, and frankly i'd rather spend my money on more important things....like long island iced teas.

- get into a frat party at UW: school's.out.for.summer. we really blew it. here's to hoping we can meet a frat guy this summer at ozzies and crash his party in the fall.

- find the nastiest dive in seattle and stay until close: came close to this on friday when we somehow ended up at the whiskey bar downtown. long story short, all they serve is whisky so we made our way down the street to the nightlite. i wouldn't call the nightlite the "nastiest dive in seattle," but i will say that if you don't specifiy, they'll make you a vodka soda with monarch.

- throw a beach party on alki, drink mai tias, and limbo: tbd. we've just been sooooooo busy!

- hang out on bird's boat as much as possible: bird has a *girlfriend* (although he won't refer to her as that) so our social status on the boat has deteriorated quite a bit.

- get totally skanked out and go dancing and trinity: i just don't have anything skanky to wear. we'll figure it out, though. maybe i can borrow something from @kristenpaul.

- photoshoot at the little park across from the piano bar with all the rainbow colors: we seriously talk about this every single friday and saturday night, but it never ends up happening.

- frequent our favorite spot to chat at the sculpture park: blah blah blah, this post is getting boring.

- take advantage of all the festivals seattle has to offer: we were too hungover to go to beerfest.

here are some highlights from our summer so far. can't believe it's already july!

laura took a trip to greece for 10 days

then we spent 11 days visiting tanya in s. korea

we threw an awesome bday party for @misbrittyk

spent the 4th of july at the lake with my family and friends

got obnoxiously drunk off champagne and rode the ducks!

loveyoumeanit,

Sars
