Patti Stanger’s Tips for Dating

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

Patti Stanger, if you don’t know who she is well then you just don’t watch Bravo really. I don’t like her show or anything but her guide lines to dating are pretty good and I’m trying to fallow them. Of course this is if marriage is your goal.

Mix it up- If your always dating the same kind of guys then trying mixing it up. You might not think they’re your type but how will you know till you give them a chance?

Data a pair and a spare.
Guy 1- Really like
Guy 2- Maybe
Guy 3- Friend
This one is rather self-expiatory, although I don’t socialize enough to do this.

2-drink max
When your out with someone don’t do more then two drinks. Anymore and you could be getting yourself into some trouble or moving faster then you want to.

No sex for 90 days-6 months
Seems like a hard one, hu? But this works for two reasons. The first being you have time to really get to know that person. The second it’s a bargaining chip, if he really likes you he’ll be willing to wait.

Money matters (good credit, manages money well)
You don’t want a mate who’s bad with money/in debit, right? I mean haven’t you seen those free credit report dot com commercials?

Don’t waste time
If you don’t think the guy is going to work out/isn’t a potential mate then why waste your time? Which leads to the last one

1-year limit
Don’t date a guy for more then year. If he isn’t going to ask you to marry him by then he probably never will. So sit him down and tell him you’re looking for marriage but if he’s not your going to move on. It’s not an ultimatum it’s you putting yourself first.

Sun sun sun

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

Wednesday Rich and I went to hammonasset for a few hours. We arrived around one and stayed to three with minimal sunburn. Actually the sunburn I got was very strange. It looked like a splatter on the upper left of my back near my shoulder and then like I was scratched below that. But the greatest story of this adventure was when we were walking on the path at the beach and we hear something rustle in the bushes and Rich kind of jumps. Well a few feet down we hear something again and I see something dart across the path so I scream and point and at that very moment I realize it was a baby bunny. I basically went AHHHHHHBunny.

Anyway here’s the email I sent Paul a few days ago to break up with him.

Here I’ve listed 10 facts you would probably never know if I didn’t decide to never speak to you again. I tried to make it as even as possible so it didn’t seem like I was just verbally attacking you. I just figured since you seemed to have this image of me that was so wrong I’d clear some things up.

1. When I couldn’t sleep I’d count how many breaths you’d take to my one and then get worried you were breathing to fast and if I should wake you up and tell you. It stems from when I was younger I heard how the Chinese (I think) believed you only had so many breaths and breathing to fast would cause an early death,
2. I liked you because I could see (whether or not you did or wanted too) that not to deep down you are so naive and innocent. Your just an eager little boy who desperately wants to grow up and is going about it the wrong way. And even though most of the time it was annoying it was always really cute.
3. 55% of the time I didn’t want to kiss you because your kisses are just wet and gross. It’s not cute when I have to wipe my cheek after you’ve kissed it. Although I did kiss you back once during that Italy VS Spain game.
4. I’m really not asexual, your approach was all wrong and selfish. I was always pulling away because it hurt. Really if I can fit two if my fingers in me but you can’t get one, it’s not me it’s you.
5. I actually masturbate more then Rich. Of course I never let you know that one because I didn’t want to hurt that fragile little ego of yours. Oh hey know that Saturday you got shit faced and spent the night bullshitting with Martin? I spent a good hour masturbating in your bed. It was the only time I actually though about you while doing it.
6. I actually started talking to Chris again because you wouldn’t shut up about him. Plus it was fun since I always knew how to push his buttons. He always got so creeped out when I’d talk dirty to him and call him Daddy.
7. I get turned on by porn too but the kind you watch is boring. I’d prefer Japanese porn or just some lesbians. I probably would have admitted that to you if you actually asked.
8. Contrary to what you may believe you sound like a complete idiot who stumbles over his words just as much as his feet and play the piano quite badly while under the influence. It was rather upsetting to see you become that to the point I cried more then once because I felt bad that you felt some sort of need to do that to yourself.
9. I’ve been sitting around waiting to give you that chance you asked for. Everyday I waited to see if you’d come over all while rehearsing in my head all those things I though that if we talked about we’d be alright. I never though we’d become anything serious. I even knew we’d never fall in love but I still liked you enough to spend time with you.
10, That night you said I wasn’t worth “bearing your offspring” was the worst thing I’ve ever heard someone I liked tell me. It made you one more person telling me I wasn’t worth something. Yet I forgave you for it. What a waste of time.

He didn’t get the point though and proceeded to IM me.

21:42] brokenartist667: whats up with that email?
[21:42] brokenartist667: lady?!?
[21:49] brokenartist667: =) ?
[21:49] Itsmorelikeboom: mm
[21:55] brokenartist667: me and dave miss’s uz
[21:58] brokenartist667: I think I lost my phone =(

[23:38] brokenartist667: boom boom boom!!
[23:44] Itsmorelikeboom: Look really stop trying it’s not working. Just move on, grow up and become something great, ok? Stop sitting around and making something of your life and accept I will not be part of it.
[23:44] brokenartist667: :-(

Old News is no news

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

I have this really great idea about the news but I don’t know how to go about it and my friend Aaron totally backs me up on it. People my age have a very small attention span and the news doesn’t really do anything in attempt to get us as viewers but hey did straight to the point webcast and blogs a lot of ct youth might actually take notice. Now watch someone totally steal my idea! :(

Anyway speaking of the news Rich said NBC 30 might be hiring some sort of assistant so he’s looking into it for me. Which would be a great way to get my food in the door while I further thinking about and research my idea.

Imagine something that fits in the palm of our hand could be killing off something even smaller. And if this thing is wiped from the face of the earth could destroy us?


A little humor before the more serious but still funny video.

This shop just makes me think about how awesome Rich’s kitchen could be even with those ugly dark wood cabinets. It’s the theory of if you can beat them join them. Her blog knick knacks and ric rak which is linked here is just a great inspiration. Anyway here’s my favorite things on the site.

Apple Pickin’ Skirt
I love apples, but I know a girl does even more I need to send her this link.

wycinanki dress
The graphic on this dress is just stunning, like a burst of happiness.

distelfink top
Ah so kitschy! It makes me want to go to a pub, get drunk and start a The Boy Least Likely To songs sing-along.

toadstool apron
The brown one would just adorable hanging from a hook in the kitchen.

Oh and for smiles here some The Boy Least Likely To

this could get kinky

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

So I know I said I’d write about Project Runway but I took a walk and then napped all day till Ace of Cakes was on. Congrats to Duff on making the world record for largest cupcake. I slept a lot today too but it felt really good when I woke up. I needed the sleep. So I think this weekend will be spent with Paul but things are still iffy due to apartment key issues here. Today for not real reason I went looking at wigs on ebay. It’s amazing the deals you can find from the Chinese ebay sellers. I figure the reason you getting the deals is it’s coming right from where they’re being manufactured. Here’s the great sellers I found:

Awesome natural style/colored wigs

Great for alternative stye wigs

Another alternative style wigs

I believe this a US seller but still pretty cheap and they’d probably get to me sooner. However the variety of good styles is soso.

Natural wigs as well as ponytail clip ons

Natural colored wigs and extensions. The wigs look so soft in their photos

Stella! Stella!

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

I really want to blog about Project Runway but the site isn’t updated in time. Hopefully I’ll remember to tomorrow. So today I added three more links to my sidebar, Design Sponge, The Purl Bee and Mixed Plate. Thanks to mixed plate my flickr set “Inspirations” is getting pretty big. I discovered the other two in Threadbangers blog’s recent post about pillows.

First there’s these awesome pillows found on the blog The Purl Bee. And oh wow there’s a tutorial! The remind me of fireworks

These ones come from Design Sponge and again there was a tutorial. I think they’d make great his and her pillows.

A little off topic but just as cute in the pillow blog entry there also mentioned checking out jamtartbaby for inspiration. I didn’t like the pillows so much but this baby blanket is bitchen.

We’ll never sleep, god knows we’ll try

Published by cheapfrills under Journal Post Edit This

I really don’t have the energy to post but I figured since it was nearly six o’clock in the morning and I still couldn’t sleep I might as wee. Most of the pain I mentioned in my last blog has gone, except the pain in my back. I still have my period but it’s almost ending so no real problems there. My depression however has worsen greatly. I barely get any sleep, I’m never hungry and for the most part I just lay around all day and either attempt to sleep or just cry. Breaking up with Paul had no real effect on this. Although I did break up with him, get back together, break up with him again and now I think we’re just friends. We might hang out on Wednesday, I guess I’ll know where we stand then.

Anyway on a completely different note a friend of Rich, Jon and myself Kevin is in the state. He’s normally not around because he goes to school in Virginia and is going to Europe this summer. Though he stopped in Connecticut for a few days before going because his mom is recovering from ovarian cancer. We’re going to visit her sometime soon. So Rich knows he’s coming to visit and doesn’t bother giving me a heads up. Well Kevin decides instead of checking to see if any of the doors are open he’s just going to knock on the living room window. It scared my so badly I hid in the kitchen the entire time. After realizing it wasn’t working he actually got in through one of the doors left open and knocked on the actual apartment door. I was about two seconds from hiding in the bedroom under the covers like a little kid when he actually called out that it was him. I was pretty pissed but I forgave him when he brought me to Friendly’s for a milkshake.
