I'm not sure why, or I am sure why.
Because he makes me laugh, and smile and laugh harder and smile bigger
and he gives me massages when i'm stressed out
and he saves me the last snickerdoodle cookie cause he knows i love them.
Because he takes me to parties even though he's sick and doesn't feel like going
and he lays with me in bed even though he's sweaty and dirty after his games.
and he kisses me on the nose and he plays with my hair.

Because he tells me he loves me every time we part ways, even if i'm just going to the bathroom.
But mainly because he is in love with me and I with him

:*(

My brother broke my ipod.

Our dinner and movie nights. Your art work. My love.

Maman

About 2 weeks ago the Bourgeois show opened at MOCA and i have been fantasizing about it since then. FINALLY, last thursday I made a date with myself and Louise and of course Luigi came as well.
It was an amazing nigh. There was $2 wine, which makes Andrea oh so happy =)

I'm trying to contain my happiness while waiting for my white wine =)
Then we entered.
Almost immediately I wanted to die because I had fulfilled one of my life-long goals of seeing one of her spiders.
I was writing notes down and then a security came up to me and told me i couldn't write with a pen in the building...umm, are you kidding me mister? So he gave me one of those baby IKEA pencils to use. We ALSO weren't allowed to take pictures but since Luigi is a darling and loves me with all of his heart and is a rebel without a cause he snapped some nonchalantly and with that, gave me the world <3

Wednesdays

Nothing makes me love life more than waking up next to the most beautiful boy in the world.
He looks at me with those puppy dog eyes, stretches and then comes and lays on my chest.
Of course, i'm talking about Murray.


So we have this public art piece at my school right in front of my class and anyone can add on anything they want. Its mostly political stuff, it started off with stencils on NO ON 8, and now people put up a bunch of other stuff. Take a look





and of course, i contributed.



=)

got a perfect score on my midterm.
i am truly proud of myself
::hugs::

HORROR FEST

So i went to the doctor this past friday and my German doctor touched me in a lot of places i'm not usually touched by a woman. usually. haha
The result of all of that is that i'm (relatively) healthy and have no diseases.
Did some shopping at goodwill. found some cute shirts. I was starving so i ate at Popeye's by myself, it was actually kinda nice. Super peaceful and calming.
Around 5ish i picked Luigi up from hanging out with the Mayor and a bunch of wino middle aged women.
So i got there and he surprised me with tickets to Universal Studios Horror Fest. i was super duper excited.
We got there and i was already scared before we even went in. We rode the Simpsons ride first and it was so fun.
Well here are pictures...

let me lick you up and down

zeeeezz my shammmm

firez_

So i am not attending class today due to the fact that some people around my area were being evacuated because of the fires...not me or my people but i thought it was a good excuse to stay home and do this i guess hahah.
I can see the fire from my backyard and i can see the helicopters go to the water reserve from my bedroom window.
widescreen vision.

why?

Today was suppose to be my first midterm. History of African Art.
I received an email from my Prof. and a call from my school telling me that classes were cancelled due to the fires.
I didn't even know there were fires going on, and they are so close to my house.
I got up earlier than usual to get more studying in and i was super duper prepared...and now i must wait 2 weeks to take my exam.
I mean, its okay, i guess, its whatever.

I really really really really need to go see Neil Young.
I don't understand why the ticket prices have to be so ridiculously expensive.
Like seriously...$500 for two tickets?
not fair, what about us little people who cant shell out 250 a ticket?
why?
I love you Neil Young.


I'm almost not sick anymore.
Fright Fest was wack.
Now my man is here, and he is being attacked by my baby.
I'm gonna go eat and watch Choke.

ewwie

I've been sick all week. notcool
Like super duper sick.
I don't know what going on with my super magical vegetarian immune system.
I think my body is punishing me for everything i put it through
My kidney's are out on vengeance

...I just want to take this time to apologize to my Kidneys...
Kindeys,
I know i put you through a lot and you must feel so betrayed because we are suppose to be a team and work together to keep my body healthy and i haven't really done that. I make you works so much harder than you have to and i just wanted to say that i am sorry and that i am extremely thankful for both of you.
Thank you for always filtering out all the poisons that run through my body and regulating the production of red blood cells so my anemia isn't out of control. I owe it to you to cut down on my alcohol consumption [but i'm not making any promises =)], I'm gonna drink more cranberry juice and i'll give you a massage whenever possible.
I love you Kidney's
-Andrea

So my precious baby boy Murrey went to the groomers today
and he came back looking like a fat head, muppet, bubble head.
He looks so fucking cute,
in like a "uh he looks weird, but kinda funny, actually its a little cute, ok, he's so fucking cute" kinda way.

I finished my exhibition paper like a couple hours ago
It was suppose to be about 250 words, but lets be serious, we're adults here and 250 words is some ESL/ special education shit.
soooo as a way to show how ridiculous i think this professor is i wrote a 700 word paper. BOOYAH!
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it hummmiee.

[imsorryandimnotandiloveyou]

And i hate not being able to sleep, its the worst part of my day.
I dread going to bed because i know what its gonna be like:
2 and a half hours of reading.
An hour of trying to go to sleep.
Another hour of reading.
and finally drifting off to sleep at god knows what time.

hate.
stab me in the arm

Remix to Ignition

Went out with Krys last night.
Bar hoppin, we bar bar hoppin.
Luigi was in Morongo.
Andrea was getting her guzz on.

My weekend is over...
Now i am stuck with the stress that school brings upon me.
FUCK historiography...well at least all the work. EFF you all the work!
i have like 5,900 presentations to do, 122,098 papers to write, and plus or minus a million articles to read.
Thank Gaudi, its my last "serious" semester.

And for the icing on my cake...i think i'm sick.
i woke up with a sore throat a couple days ago, but i like to think i'm magicand instead of doing something about it to prevent it,
i went out, no sweater, smoking and drinking my throat to an elevated degree of sore throatness.
too responsible. They call me lil' too too

[baby get that toot toot, let me hear that beep beep, running her hands through my fro, bouncin on 24s]

Anyway, i'm outie.

All i want to do is fucking dance.
Here are my getting down songs of the night.
::WARNING::
THESE SONGS ARE SUPER SICK WITH IT

and the colored girls go do do do do do dodododo

Can't sleep.

I'm sitting here on my ottoman listening to the Rolling Stones.

Wild Horsess

Couldn't drag me awayy.

Wild wild horsesss, 

We'll ride them some dayyy.

uhm...right...

on another note:

New York City is the place where they said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side."

...>>>

I feel like throwing on my minnetonka's and jogging down my hill...in my panties.

ughh, i have a pimple. I had forgotten how annoying they are.

It's just like posted, chillin in the middle of my forehead, setting up camp. wack.

What is there to do at 2ish on a tuesday morning...

   

sleep, i guess.

or

Hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side

fallin down

i fucking love this song, and especially this version

i don't care what the haters at my work think...cause i lovvve it.

on a side note:

the recorder version on her cd doesn't sound as good as this one.

but tom waits is amazing <3

ZA BAY

Just returned from San Pancho...well, not JUST, but on sunday.

We had some good times, a lot of walking which gets us out of our drive everywhere norm of the san fernand0 valley (and the greater los angeles county).

I bought some cute shirts, visited cha and mark, ate ube ice cream(bomb), looked at a bunch of shoes that i really know nothing about, smoked, jack daniels, slept, showered.

We ate at a popular local breakfast place: denny's. Oh yeah, we had  bomb ass thai food=thai bomb.

ummmm...the end

oh p.s.

our room had a smoothy view.

Murrific

This is my muppet baby: my furry Murray. 

He likes to hide my panties and swim with me daily.

His parents were circus folks, which explains his incredible ability to stand on his hind legs for a ridiculously long time. He has just received his certificate of rabis shot completion and i could not be prouder of my little guy...he worked so hard: we worked so hard.

hot mess

Took me a good hour to set this mess up. goes to show how technologically challenged i am.

I'm not new to this blog stuff, i had one in my past life.

The only thing on my mind right now is how painful it is to watch the petals fall of my flowers.
