have you heard of house on the rock?

i really want to go there.
it has the world's largest carousel, but also lots of other cooky things.

like this:
supposedly its an automated music machine. i'll believe it when i see it.

i would feel less guilty about wanting to go there if i didn't learn about the place from a neil gaiman book.

i had forgotten

i like romantic comedies. i think i may have made myself think otherwise because i feel silly watching them. but i'm watching you've got mail right now and its good. i like the silly little bits of information in their emails.

"The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don't know what the hell they're doing or who on earth they are can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self: Tall. Decaf. Cappuccino."

its kind of pretentious, but so are chuck palahniuk books and i still read them.

another quote from a romantic comedy i have been enjoying:

re: you live in a hotel?
hugh grant: I own the hotel, and I live there. My life is very much like Monopoly.

p.s. dave chapelle is in this movie? whats that about.

I'm going to visit him at woody creek this summer

Update:

So I've revamped my own blogspot and plan on updating that a lot. I still have my livejournal, though, so I think I'll use that for more personal things and for keeping up with friends because it is 'friends only' and restricted&all.

madisonbarras.blogspot.com

I'll be having a few adventures over the summer and I guess I'll put up stories and pictures (suitable for sharing) on blogspot and then crazy things that -need- to be told to others will then go here.
Liz, we still really need to get more people on this. Everyone is ridiculous. Send Dave Matthews an invite.

my mom has an old book about how to be a cheerleader

my favorite parts are all the silly rules there were.
girls with shorter hair should not wear glasses, etc.

two bits four bits six bits a dollar.
somethinsomethin stand up and holler.

which reminds me of the woman from stereototal (she has cute short hair and wears glasses). do they have cheerleaders in europe? anyway. i saw stereototal the other day and they are the cutest couple.

i felt bad because i was so surprised that i didn't dislike her. i have this weird tendency to dislike european women, they can be so snooty. i blame the angry french teachers i had. and really distinctly, catherine zeta-jones in ocean's 12. she's so annoying. but kind of accurate.

snooty?
snotty?
snotty?

i love that word.

this has to do with my job

Small business selling condoms

So part of my job is outreach to the community - we work to get them in to get tested and educate them on how to stay protected as well as use condoms.
We have so much fun in the things that we do and I really enjoy my job.

zum Beispiel:

On Tuesday my branch of Americorps had a training at my site, Acadiana C.A.R.E.S.
Since it was at MY site, they asked me to get in front of everyone and talk a little about what CARES is about and what, specifically, I do there. I ended up talking for about an hour, answering questions, and even gave a female condom demonstration.
It was ridiculous and so awesome.
They even gave me a plant afterward - it was supposed to be for the lady who was scheduled to come and speak about diversity but she thought it was on a different day..
I named the plant Bernie. He is some sort of fern.. I'm not sure.
I'll ask Karita one day.
