ABV... where art thou?
well, this should be an interesting month. the day planner never arrived.
rolls and skins
my blogroll is back up (after being on hiatus for about 2 years - it's over on the bottom right)
i am tweaking - it's nowhere near complete - i wanted to bring the links back to my homepage - we'll see how annoying it is... but there may be a bit of a restructure in the future... have a hankerin' to fiddle with skins!
*whew*
the ABVs arrived today...

someone searched for:
"atkins communion wafer carbs calories"
ehm... if you are so hung up on your weight that you have to start counting points or calories for Jeez-its or Christ Chex*... then you really have a problem.

mmmm... mmmm... give some good food!
Campbell's is donating a can of soup to the needy for every person that goes to their site and votes for their favorite NFL team. Go to the site and it is right there, very easy to do. It will only take a few seconds of your time to fill some empty tummies with warm soup this winter.

hope... peace...
my friend hope - who i had worked with earlier this year and part of last year - is heading to africa to teach and do amazing things over there... check out her site and see what this trek is going to be like...
i'm awake!
well, i had been hunkered down under my comforter fast asleep... dreaming of the snow that's heading our way... smiling in my slumber because i am working from home today and won't have to deal with the commute...
anyway, i digress... sleep, warm, happy.
*COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!* *COUGH!*
eh? huh? i crack open one eye.....
ah... pre-winter
well, sitting here reading emails from the boss...
accuforecast!
we have snow! okay, about 6 flurries.... but it's still frozen flying water!
let your chads dangle, my friends!
so the weblog awards polls open today...
rock the vote, kids... humor category... ha. ha.
(i was thinking of changing my blog name to Gigglechick in Da House in hopes of confusing folks to vote for me a bit more!!!)
when seafood attacks
jeezuz!! i just cooked up shrimp with red peppers and a LOT of garlic (and almonds)...
anyway... using chopsticks... one of the fricking shrimp just flew out of my grip and flung up hitting me dead in the eye.... then it ricocheted off of my eye and onto my monitor... now garlic shrimp hot pepper juice is burning my retina....
yes. i am sitting here blinded by a crustacean. one eye swelling shut right now....
*** gigglechick doppler radar: snow. sticking. cold. ***
the word of allah... your vote counts
well, it's snowing. it's freezing. i am still in the pajamas (or for you freaks who spell it different-like.... pyjamas...) that i went to work in... okay, so pretty much, i meandered all of 7 inches from the bed to the "office" today...
yap yap yap... what i am saying is... i am snowbound (okay, there's only, like, an inch that's sticking right now, but i am a wimp and i feel like my top lip is already becoming chapped from thinking about the wind outside...)
looking like a night chock full of pathetic friday night teevee... and most likely, a ton of posts on here...
allah is in the house is beating the hell out of the rest of the pack... go allah!!
quote from allah: "Thanks again to everyone who voted for me! If I don't win, I hope Don and gigglechick tie for first." - Posted by Allah at December 5, 2003 06:16 PM ... that was nice!!! thanks!
you heard allah... if allah doesn't win, allah wants gigglechick (and don) to tie for first... so don't pis allah ofF~!!
come on, you don't want dave barry to win do you? he's a millionaire, he's beating me by 42 votes... at least let me pull ahead of Mr. Newspaper Columnist...
so... once again... vote for gigglechick in 2003!!! (erm... or today... don't wait til the end of 2003...)...
google should win best humor blog
help GC whip dave barry's arse!!!
not that i have anything against the guy, it's just that he's an easy target since he'll never come to my site...
go vote for me... i only need about 60 more votes to bring him down and move in front of him!!! tell your friends!! :)
flashback #4962

welcome to the pahhrteee zone!
tibbear, tibbear?
i woke up this morning and looked out my window at the snow, then i looked down and i saw a HUGE set of tracks...
neverneverland mascot?
erm... hey, do you think Jacko might want this for xmas?
for all that is holy, MAKE IT STOP!
okay, so has anyone else been haunted by that build-a-bear workshop commercial!?
sweet baby jeezuz!
first of all, the kid in the ad is about 13 - no way in hell would she be caught going to build-a-bear with her mother... and all excited because she planned out her bear... then kissing the heart that goes into the bear, actually, a stuffed rabbit...
second... for 3 days straight, i have had this GODAWFUL song in my head (you'll thank the lord that i couldn't find the mp3), on a continuous loop... and just when it starts to subside... the EFFING commercial comes on again with the girl singing off-key and then the rabbit (complete with slobbered on plastic heart) has it's voice chip activated and the bloody song starts up....
Suppa sonic technotronic machine.
Disco hippie you're da man.Ooh sha la la, ooh ooh sha la la la
Ooh sha la la, ooh ooh sha la la la
Ooh sha la la, ooh ooh sha la la la
i am in hell.
just say no to db.
i'm only trailing him by 120 votes, kids....
so start spreading the love and vote for me!
[a big thanks shout-out to michele at asmallvictory.net for whipping that image up!!]

snow, dogs & bears...
remember the "bear tracks" the other day? well, i downloaded the pics from saturday...
• the tracks... now, really, these were about 5 inches in width (each)
• really... when you see these crossing 3 patios, wouldn't you think it was something huge?
• remind me... i have to get my brows done soon
• beri totally wiped out in the snow... poor kid
• beri looking a little drier... still a crazy little dog, though
poor adam mesh...
you have to be kidding me. Average Joe... more like Average Jackass.
well, let's just say that adam mesh is a "lucky joe" for not being saddled up with that superficial whore...eh... bitch...eh... harlot...yeah... i'll stick with "harlot"
jeez. the bimbo slept with the "pretty boy" on the first date.... eh... not that there's anything wrong with doing that every so often... but, come on! she led the poor kid on... (adam, i mean) and was all about the brainless jason...
yes. this is what i do on monday nights. sit here watching others' lives on teevee... (i can also be found doing this on thursday evenings, as well)
but, jeez whiz... what a slut... tease... ah, we'll stick with "harlot" still.
at least this adam fella will most likely have the chicks, broads, ladies and dames flocking to his feet since he's a sweet guy....
(i'm glad she didn't pick him... he deserves better... ya' hear that, Adam? you deserve better...)
*** here's the link to his bar's guestbook ***
*****update 12.21.03 - all y'all who are coming here through google looking for adam and emailing him via my address (eh, which, by the way, is not his email address) you can now go to adammesh.com - good luck, folks *****
this isn't too shabby...

how the...?
somehow, i think i sprained my left pinkie while sleeping...
ow.... *whine*
oh no dey di-in't!!!! *insert head waggle*
for the love of gawd, you people aren't gonna Twit & Wisdom, oh, pardon me... witt & wisdom talk smack & trash and move ahead of me in the polls, are you?
refresh your cache and go vote for me again, my lovelies....
(oh.... and bring down dave barry, too!!)
a taste sensation...
i opted for a cheese steak sammich for lunch... it was the least fattening thing they had at the cafeteria today...
it's also the first time in 3.5 weeks that i've had any bread. and it's white bread at that (actually, a hoagie roll)
time spent eating devouring it: 45 seconds...
i can have the steak and the cheese, it's the bread that's the evil bit of this concoction... but, oh so damned good...
don't worry, poppets.... i am following this feasty beast up with cucumbers/black olives and sunflower seeds....
(hey i could have opted for the smorgasbord of potatoes that they had featured down there today... but, restrained myself)
price check....
ah, for those of you who love those crazy "priceless" images... here you go... (keep in mind, they were sent to me, i didn't create them...)
a call for opinions
okay - let's vote... no, not about the weblog awards (although.... you still CAN!!)
i am talking about the belmar st. pat's day parade site design - keep in mind i am quickly slapping these together - since this is a volunteer gig and i do have the full time job to deal with...
that said...
• iteration 1
• iteration 2
• iteration 3
i know which one i like... which do you guys prefer... keep in mind, this is what they have up there right now... so...
[also, keep in mind that it's a st. pat's parade site... and if folks can't handle a lot of green, they shouldn't be going to the parade anyway!!]

onions make me cry... (with laughter)
oh *SNAP*!
And while at least one of these 14 has managed to make Paris Hilton look like an Trappist monk with agoraphobia (I don't want to mention any individual blog, but it rhymes with "Wiggle-Stick"), all have apparently put this flimsiest of awards ahead of a potentially enlightening friendship with me.
oh, Mister Donk... no you didn't just imply that i was whoring my site out more than Paris Hilton rents out her hot pocket... did you?!?
well, then, i shall pimp out another site instead of the Weblog Awards (although, i still want y'all to vote for me...)
for your enjoyment: 80's TRIVIA
