As You Wish...
So any friend of mine would have to know that saying, "as you wish" is tantamount to saying the big L. Thank goodness for the talents of Cary Elwes and the brilliant person that cast him in a mask at the pinnacle of his good looks. I always like to think of him as the blonde Rhett Butler--making him the best of all possible worlds for this kid. Seeing as I am sitting at home waiting for something exciting to happen (my neighbors are having sex and I think they might finish at any moment), I thought I would distract myself by taking the test posted on KDD's site to see which Princess Bride character you are. I was sure I'd end up being the guy who drinks the iocane powered wine. But look who I ended up as...Westley! And I'm not in the least perturbed by my "change" in gender. I did recently dream that I was a fat Eddie Murphy and the object of my affection was a really fat Tootie.

One More Thing...
So last night I walked into a bar...with my parents and some of our Riva friends and noticed three attractive guys sitting at the bar. After we sat there for a while I realized that one of them was trying to catch my eye--because of course he knew me. It was (shockingly) a v-ball friend and his roommate, who I had gone out with a few times. After dinner I ended up joining them for a drink. Roomie Guy is chatting me up something serious, buys me drinks (which always makes me like someone more) and continues drinking himself. It wasn't until he'd had 4 or five maragritas in total that he seemed to garner the gumtion/balls/etc. to ask me out. I can't decide if he is a alcoholic or just a coward. Either way, typical. Well, then again, he doesn't drive a mini-van while drinking "barley pop" so he probably is ahead of the curve. Of course when we stood up I remembered that he is shorter than I am too. *sigh*
I'm watching Romeo and Juliet (Leo's version). Good movie. Ii wish more people had fish tanks at parties. Nice way to meet someone. Also realized that Michael from Lost plays Mercutio as a drag queen. Interesting to see. He has nice legs.
And by the by, Debbie left me diet cat food that my cat has been eating quite angrily and has made him quite the grump to live with..but he seems to be losing weight! Against his better judgement. So watch and see you fine people! He'll be slim and sleek before you know it! Big bones and fluffiness be damned!

It's Hard to be Fabolous...
So when I left off--more than two months ago, I promised a tell-all of the great Hooters trip of '05. So much delayed--here you go!
The fun all started because I took the train up. The instant I sat down, this guy started talking to me, and when the train started, he said, "you don't mind do you?" and sat down next to me. On an empty train! He was nice enough, and it ended 90 minutes later when he gave me his card and told me how "you can't have enough friends" and we should go out for coffee sometime. Ok, this guy was in his 50s, easy. And thanks, but I have enough friends in their 50s. They're called my parents...
But the highlight of the weekend was Saturday and hitting Hooters. (You shouldn't actually hit hooters by the way:) Big, fun group and we hung out there for a while. The waitresses were really something. Every 10 minutes or so, they would do a different cheer and get some guys up to do it with them. The one I remember went something like "peal the apple, peal the banana, squeeze the orange." For the first part they would do a little dance move, and the squeeze part they would start hugging customers and jiggling. It was pretty funny. A lot of the guys were 19 and they were really enjoying it. Kristin and I both left with shirts, and I don't know what it is, but we took some pictures later in them, and our tits look huge! Love that! I had a discussion with K's brother that I would kill her for having with mine, and later we went with him to play poker and look at Penis performance art.
...Segaway...
This was kind of odd...I went to the dentist and had the strangest hygienist. Apparently, I need to change my lifestyle to fit in flossing, because otherwise, I can get heart disease. (Diet, exercise--for schmucks! Flossing--that's the ticket!) Then after she cleaned my bottom teeth, she said, "Well, we're three-quarters done". Um, no, I think that's half.
Christmas was good to the Foss Fam this year. I did pretty well in gift giving. The cousins loved the Atari game (30 classic games!)…and their parents did too! My parents are always very generous with clothes, books and household supplies. B, E & Z gave me a Kate Spade bag, face cleansing system (what's he trying to say?), Gone with the Wind and To Kill a Mockingbird. (He always gives great gifts). I have wanted those books because my copies are tattered, torn and have been dropped in a lake or two. A very nice xmas!!
The school year has been good and bad. Nice class, but lots of kids in and out, so that makes it tough. I do enjoy it everyday, and have only had one day that I really didn't want to go to work. I think it had something to do with the cold weather, and my desire to just stay in bed.
I have this week off, so I spent a few days playing and hanging out in the city. I discovered that I am in fact the best Donkey Kong player in SF. (You can check the score at the metreon for KVF). This is of course unless (as I am beginnning to suspect) they unplug the machines every night so that everyone can be on the high score board (however briefly).
Finishing up the thesis this week, so I will soon be the master of my domain. And yours as well. I'm hoping that this will be the thing I need to make me become a really efficient, tidy and non-late person. Or will I think, I have a Masters, those are problems for the little people? Hmmm.
Two things you should check out...the DVDs of House and Lost. Love them both. Have to say I am a big Sawyer fan on lost. i love the unethical con man who is really hot and silently tortured by his past. Even hot when he was getting tortured. I wish they'd show more of him. Kinda like Angel from the good Buffy days.
I'm off to eat lunch and then worry more over my paper. I just had a flash of brilliance--and it makes me happy that I'm at the bottom of it all, a pretty fickle person. You know how you can be really bummed about one thing, but then you realize a small thing about that thing of that person, and suddenly you realize, HA! I don't need this crap! I just had that moment. So I'm going to say fuck off Liu! I don't need you or your thoughts in my paper! That ought to take off a few hours of work! yeah!
Feeling better already! Freedom (almost!)
