Ok, so I've left two issues hanging here on this blog. One is who I'm going to choose in the Dramamineboy/cowboybone drama, and the other is whether or not I'm going to double-post on xanga.

And lucky for me, these two issues are actually kinda related. So I get to kill two birds with one stone! Wheeee!

So anywho, here's how it goes. I'm supposed to choose who I want to marry between xanga icons Dramamine Boy and cowboybone. The main motive for such a marriage is to form a beautiful union between the blogging empires of pitas.com and xanga.com. HOWEVER...I've tallied up the votes for whether or not I should double-post on xanga, and the verdict is.....

Double posting to xanga wins. BY ONE VOTE.

Once again proving that yes, every vote DOES count. This ain't the American presidential election, ya know. :P Unless you people demand a recount. At any rate, so unless I get any more votes, I'll start double-posting to xanga beginning with the next post I make after this one. And as a result, I'd be joining pitas.com and xanga.com on my own!! Without having to marry anyone! Therefore, to my dear Dramamine Boy and cowboybone....sorry buckos, no marriage to this Texan gal here. :P But uh...if either one of you guys have a little blue box with a white ribbon on it for me, send it my way. *big grin*

And for a random link...think you know your superheroes? Try this 12 pixel torso quiz. I got 19 out of 21...woohoo!

Random kindess makes me smile. :)

I went to Wal-Mart with my sister the other day to get an oil change, and while we were there we shopped around a bit. Once the car was ready, we went to check out our items over at the car repair area, but the guy wouldn't take this one bag of jalapeno peppers. So I took it up to the normal cash registers at the front of the store. I didn't feel like running around looking for the shortest line, so I just stood in line for the first register I found. There was this elderly man standing in front of me. He was dressed in a clean white button-up shirt, a pair of jeans, and a belt with this big shiny belt buckle. You could tell he was probably a handsome guy when he was young. Anyway, I was just standing behind him, minding my own business. He looks at his cart full of things, and then he looks at my one bag of jalapenos. He looks up at me and says "Is that all you have?" I smiled and I told him that yeah, that's all I've got...one lonely bag of jalapenos. "Good lord, why dontcha go find a shorter line? Baby, there's no need to wait on me! I'm just here because this is the only register that sells cigarettes." I just grinned and said "Nah...I just didn't feel like running around the store looking for a short line. I'm in no hurry." He chuckled and we went back to standing in line for a while. Then he says "Say sugar...why don't you get in front of me?" I guess I looked a little baffled, because then he says "Yeah, go ahead! I'm the boss here!" He nudged me forward and gently pushed me in front of him. I smiled and thanked him. I tried buying him his cigarettes when I was paying for the peppers, but as soon as I asked what kind he wanted, he said "Aw darlin' you don't have to buy me my cigarettes! Aren't you a sweet one? But thank ya very much, you're so sweet!" Eventually he won, and I let him turn down my offer to buy him his cigarettes. :) I thanked him again for letting me go ahead of him in line, and as I walked away, he called out "Hey...happy new year." I smiled, wished him a happy new year, and thanked him again...such a sweet little guy. :)

Little things like that make me chipper. :)

A comment from the other Cindy: "Whether you decide to double post or not.....um....just post! DANG IT!"

Eeesh, okay okay. You Canadians are so demanding. :)

So anywho....umm. *glances around* You guys like umm...stuff? I like stuff too. Erm....

GAHHHHH!! *pulls hair out* Someone gimme something to blog about!!

I think I love gay men.

Well, at least I love a certain 5 gay men that show up on TV every Tuesday night. Yes, that's right. I'm hooked on Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. I couldn't care less about the fact that these guys are gay. They're cute, they're funny, and they do freakin' AMAZING things to the rattiest looking guys I've ever seen. Why's the show have to be for straight GUYS, dammit?!?!? I'd kill to have the Fab Five make ME over, for chrissakes....I'd kill just to meet the Fab Five, period. :P

Anywho, if it isn't obvious enough, I've been bored to tears here at home. I've been downloading/renting movies like a madwoman, and I've been watching enough episodes of Queer Eye to make me question my own hygiene routine and my wardrobe. And I'm a straight girl. Eeesh.

Anywho, I'm about to go bake like crazy. If anyone has any other suggestions of fun things to do at home, lemme know. Please. Or at least gimme something to blog about. Anything. *puppy eyes*

So I only got two votes for the xanga double-posting. One was a yea, the other a nay. So uh...I'm back at square one. I need more feedback on this issue, people! :P

Anywho, uh...Merry Christmas? Wow....I mean, I know I say this every year, but it REALLY doesn't feel like Christmas this year. I think there are two factors contributing to that.

Lack of Christmas weather. I'm in TX. I was wearing a spaghetti strap tank 2 days ago. Today is more of an upgrade because my shirt actually has sleeves on it, but c'mon....is just ONE freakin' flake of snow so much to ask for? Or even just dropping the temperatures 20 degrees so that I can actually make use of the long-sleeved clothing I have?? Please?

Lack of a tree. My mom's an amazing decorator. Whenever people come over to my house, they glance around and always ask me if we hired a professional to do the decorating. I always smile with pride and say that my mom did all the work. Christmas is no exception. My mom does some kickass Christmas decorating, and she can turn any pine into an elegant and festive Christmas tree. This time, I came home from Austin, and after a week of bumming around, I started thinking "Hmm....something's missing..." WE HAVE NO TREE!! WE HAVE NO LIGHTS!! No garland spiraled around our staircase banisters, no burgundy ribbons hanging from our mantle, no gold leaves to adorn our fruitbasket. Our house is as festive as Saddam's little hole. Bleh.

But uh...Merry Christmas anyway! :) I'd treat myself to a gingerbread latte right now, but it's just not the same when you don't have a Starbucks within walking distance....nyah. :P

Psst. Is there a priest out there? Set up a confessional for me. Bless me, father, for I have sinned. I've been thinking impure thoughts. I've been thinking about double posting.

ON XANGA.

Please forgive me!! I know I shouldn't give in to the empire of evil, but...it somehow calls to me. I think the fact that I'm a comment whore has something to do with it. I won't abandon my pitas blog at all...I'm just thinking about duplicating everything I write here and putting it on xanga. Am I a bad person? *puppy eyes*

Bleh. But really....so double-posting to xanga...yea or nay?
