Various Clutter

so i've been sick since getting back from Asia and so my sleep schedule has been totally fucked...like for instance i am writing this at 4:30 cuz i woke up to pee and now can't go back to sleep. A few random things i've done and noted this week

30 Rock:
Is kind of an awesome show. Not as awesome as Arrested Development but kind of in that same vein. Who knew?! You all should watch it. It takes a few episodes to get into cuz you'll be like...this is kind of lame but then the characters grow on you and stuff

Netflix:
I rejoined due to the writer's strike. I figured i had some extra cash (and extra time) since i'm not shopping. I guess the point was to save money so maybe it's not that i shop too much but rather that i spend too much money. I am going to start watching Buffy finally after all these years. I'm not really sure why i never got into it considering how i got into like 90% of what was and is on television. But for some reason i just assumed it was gonna be lame and so never watched. I will admit...perhaps i was wrong. The only problem with me watching shows is that i like REALLY watch them....like over a 3 days span i drop everything and intensely watch...case in point, i watched 30 rock's 2 seasons over the past 2 days.

Top This Party:
is an awesome show on lifetime. I'll give you a sample...crazy blonde asian woman yelling at a gay man who can't throw her safari themed yacht party with a fire pit and won't let her drop into her OC backyard from a helicopter. watch it!

Peru:
We're going next december and we're fucking hiking that shit. bam!

The Writer's Strike:
officially sucks! man this is like throwing off my whole life! i can't believe we're losing a year of tv. pay them!! please for the love of God pay them!

Humidifier:
i bought one...i'm really excited. This does not count as shopping since as hugo put it "that has to do with your health." I did some research (googling) and settled on Slant/Fin GF-210 Germ Free Warm Mist Air Humidifier. Why didn't anyone ever tell me that a humidifier might help with my ailing sinuses in this cold dank weather?! I'm super excited...i'll let you know how it works. it's supposed to be a bit high maintenance in that you have to take lots of care of it but a bunch of humidifier geeks said that if you do take care of it is truly bomb.

And finally product alert for all you ladies out there with frizz tissues.

Straight Sexy Hair (Cost about 18 dollars online...20 dollars at Beauty Supply Store)
when i was home during thanksgiving or whenever it was that i got my BANGS! my Tia Irma cut my hair and was like "and check out this new product our salon has started using. it's awesome." And guys...it really is. If you spray this shit right before your hair is done blow drying (preferably with your Bespoke Ionic dyer...it works like crazy well AND it has rhinestones!), use your straightener (let's keep it real, if you don't have a chi then no amount of awesome product is gonna change your hair. I got mine 6 years ago and it was the best investment i have ever made), and then mist it over your hair one more time when you are done. Your hair will look shiny, silky, super striaght without looking all limp and feeling gunky the way so many straightening products can make your hair look. seriously guys, as anyone who has traveled to humid climates with me can attest, my hair is not naturally awesome. It takes a lot of work but let's keep it real when my hair looks good IT LOOKS GOOD! now all of these things cost money...but guys if straightening or drying is something you do on a daily basis than why would you do it with products that are going to damage your hair? We spend so much money on things like make up and face creams and body lotions and high heels and things. why not spread that love to your hair? I have never used their other products but based on this one i would guess that their curly sexy hair and voluminous sexy hair lines are equally awesome.

So i guess that was your consumer alert of the day.
