Insurance Hell

I've been seriously lacking in posts today (obviously--considering it's almost 5 pm PST and all you East Cost Jaw Wired Shut readers were probably like "F that" and are home for the evening) and all because I've been in insurance hell and it's sucked away my life force. Okay, not my life force but my creative juices. Thanks to one uninsured kid driver named Reynaldo I've got another lovely claim with my lovely insurance company to deal with.

I think my co-workers must associate me with the following: unable to properly operate a motor vehicle, confused sense of style (i.e. trendy/hippie outfit I am wearing today vs. preppy/casual outfit yesterday), obsessed with Maine and some sandwhich that can only be purchased in Maine, in denial of lactose intolerance, and I am sure there are more I could speculate on.

Anyhoo, I've got more insurance questionnaires to fill out and need to further ruminate on perhaps why my luck has yet to turn (fingers crossed it will now) and then maybe I will be back with a review of Pineapple Express or something.

If all else fails I am considering investing in a nice and safe bike (actually it's a family joke how pathetic my bike skills are) or perhaps a motorized scooter.

Poor Man's Stamos

Roomie #1 here, aka ditonto. Annie so kindly suggested that I blog while she's away, so I will do my best to live up to her blogging standards. Although after her last post I'm guessing no one's going to check this until she gets back from the Vineyard (said with snobby accent). That's fine. I'm use to rejection (single tear).

I've never done this blogging thing and so I'm a little bit nervous and very amused by the whole process. For example, apparently the labels for this post are automatically suggested once you start typing and "scooters" is currently a label for mine. I mean, sure, why not?

I had no idea what to blog about, but then I thought, why don't I give Annie's very loyal readers a little commentary on their fearless blogging leader from the somewhat random roomie's perspective. Most of you know her quite well, but not all have you have lived with her, and even fewer have met her one day and lived with a shared wall between you and her the next, and that my friends, is an experience. I'd like to call this portion of the blog, Things I've Learned from Stamos...

1 - Self indulgent blogging can be liberating.

2 - Being a huge overly obsessed fan of Grey's Anatomy is waaaaaaay cooler than being a huge overly obsessed fan of "other worldly" movies and shows, ie - X-Files, LOTR

3 - Just Say Yes

4 - Being "bad ass" is a state of mind AND the main purpose in life.

5 - One can never have too many pairs of green pants

6 - There is a right and wrong way to cook eggs

7 - Who Jack Roger and Lilly Pulitzer are

8 - What NOT to say to a sensitive person during their sensitive moment

9 - How to properly do the 'shoulder jerk' dance when driving

10 - Girls who go to sleep in their pearl earings can also wake up early on Sunday in an XL t-shirt to watch football

so that's all I got for now...remember when reading this that this is in fact a No Judgement Zone

thanks and have a wonderful/drunk 4th!
