What's Love Got to Do With it?

Tune in to the Bachelor last night?

Another doomed Bachelor relationships for the books it looks like. Despite a fairytale proposal in which Brad appears to be reading cue cards and Emily seems to need a reboot to her robotic system, I have my doubts about these two.

I've seen people in couples annoy each other from time to time, but I've never seen 2 people downright hate each other as much as Emily and Brad did last night on the After the Final Rose show.

And after only 3 months of dating they have already broken up and gotten back together!?! I don't know about you out there, but I have never seen a real-life relationship involving periodic breakups that ever ends in happily ever after.

I hope this young woman and pushing-40-year-old-man these two crazy kids can make it. But so far it seems like they are staying together just because they are both too stubborn to be the one to say, "Uncle" first.

This is truly the stuff of great romances. ;)

Tyra Banks is the Devil

These are just a couple of things that I am refusing to register as real today:

1) Tyra Banks changing her name to just "Tyra"

2) Tyra Banks going to Harvard Business School (even though she didn't even go to undergrad?)

Que Lastima mi Lezbos

RIP Lilith Fair.

It's the end of an era...An era of what, in my mind, involved lots of unshaven armpits and Chacos on various lawns across America.

One time my sister accussed me of being a lesbian and "really into Lilith Fair" just because I bought a Sarah McLachlan CD when I was 14.

I cried many a teen-angst tear to that Mirrorball CD.

You will be missed Lilith Fair. Not by me. But by that ballad-loving 14-year Mamacita who never got to see you in person!

Shut Up Sky Mall Magazine - Releaf Neck Rest

Another set of flights, another set of craptastic finds from Sky Mall Magazine.

Today's gem is the Releaf Neck Rest. "Great for many everyday situations...sleeping upright, watching TV."

Who sleeps upright besides horses? And who can't hold their own head up to watch TV past the age of 3 months old?

You know why you rest so well?

Because there is no blood flowing to your brain! You have just successfully suffocated yourself to sleep on the plane.

Thanks Sky Mall for solving another one of those major life problems that doesn't even exist!

Regreso Aqui

I'm back from my last official Spring Break until I have my own little divettes someday. But I think I might just start taking my own unofficial SB2KForevers because they are so necessary for the heart and soul.

Puerto Rico was relaxing and warm, just what the lazy doctor ordered! My only complaints are that nothing ever dried because of the humidity, which is gross. And the food was awful.

I actually lost a few pounds on this vacation, if that is any indication of the level of suck that was the local food.

Now I'm back at work with the joyous task of retelling how "great" and "fun" my trip was to each individual coworker. Poooop.

True Stories from the Ghost of Workplace Past - Part V

We will wrap up this riveting series with a few obvious observations.

Yes, I have had a lot of jobs. Yes, a lot of them have been awful/awesomely awful/wierd.

But my most previous job before the one I have now found me sitting across from my soulmate. Nay, an angel sent from above.

Have you ever wished that you worked next to your best friend?

That you could bring your Ipod to work and listen to your favorite Disney songs and not give a damn because the person across from you loves them too?

Well gang, I had that.

I had a coworker I never thought could exist outside of my wildest dreams. She loved the soundtracks to The Little Mermaid and Mama Mia as much as me.

She loved talking about food as much as me.

And she loved dancing around the office when no one was looking and challenging each other to switch-split contests.

She was everything and more. And I let it all slip away just so I could marry my current husband. Oh wait, I don't regret that at all. But I miss the hell of that dancing queen.

But in true Mamacita wierd work fashion, she did start her name with two capital AA's, so that's still really wierd.

Nonetheless, no one will ever match up to AA___. I miss you!
