Marina and the diaaamonds two nights ago in Atlanta was pop pop poppinnnn. Cant get enough of that electra heart. However, a few qualms:
1. It was a weird mix of middle school señoritas and Atlanta gays. Definitely made for some friction in dat pit.
2. marina was sporting fluffy, feathered cheetah pumps that belong only on the wrinkled feet of a suburban housewife cougar
3. NO ONE WAS GETTIN THEIR GROOVE ON. Ppl ppl, if you in da pit dance or find an exit. Aye aye.
Those aside tho whatta talented mamasita. Snapped some pics---whoooop
In other news! Just landed in NYC to get tipsy with my gypsy Stefania. Cuddled in a warm Brooklyn nook right now about to go to the parrkkk then tonight its probs karaoke and some jiggin. Then it's off to Amsterdam tomorrow to see Evi, my Dutch amante!
The year's coming to an end rapidlyy and I've been spending way more time with the roomies because as soon as finals end we'll all scurry to our own little burrows and I won't see em til JaNuArY! Been a waay crazy ride with my 7 lady steed babes so far and I can't wait to gallop with em come spring.
Last night we went night walking all together and wandered around downtown Athens. Christmas tree selfies, gangly crazy-eyed musician rambles, and milkshake sippin while people watchin ensued, naturally and I was Asparagusin real harddd (footnote--Asparagus=grin to grin smiling). We also raced home and I dont wanna toot-a-toot-toot my own horn but I hailed as victor. :)))
Today, it was more...that's right!... roomie Athens tromping. Yes, I have a final on Tuesday but I just want to fall in love with the Classic City all over again. Gawwwd get off my backkk boooks/schooltyme
Me and AlPal went thriftinggg (AgOrA & MiNx) and found some gemz. But we have no monies so we just snapped these (professional quality) photographs and scooted ouutaa there.
Michael Jackson Action Figure. Jean Jowboy Joots. Leopard Heel Sofa Chair. Athens Vintage you tempt me with your treasures. Alas, they were all out of our pricerange. But Allie did walk away with a hotdog sweatshirt (it's scratch-n-sniff!) so holla hollaaaaa. WIN.

Today marks the odd and mysterious READING DAY tradition in Athens. Technically, it's a day of no class where the university guilts you into beginning your studies. In reality, it's just a day for students to PRETEND their hunkering down for this upcoming week of hell. From pencil sharpening to offering alms to PandaPanda, the god of studies, students everywhere fool themselves into thinking they're ready for the Sandy-magnitude storm ahead.
...My house is no different. And after sharpening a few pencils myself already, I am ready to hit.da.town. with the roomies. However, in addition to making this a day of "pretend studying, actual fun time", ima go one step further. It's DTYD. Designated Treat Yoself Day. Yah, ya heard meh. treattinnnn myselfff all daaaay.
Chipotle double stuffed burrito? MMmmm jess senorita.
Galloping horse vintage sweater at Dynamite? OH NEIGH.
North campus tree climbing in gecko toe shoes? Betcho bottom dolla.holla.
These are just the tip of the iceberg for this fine Wednesday of treatery.
Also, as I've been pretend studying I've stumbled on some prutttyy great non-study material:
1. St. Lucia-the band
2. Picantes Mexicana Grill
Although their salsa tastes like cold tomato soup, their fajita quesadilla had to be made by Montezuma himself with it's tangy onion/pepper accents and creamy cheese overflow. Bueno que nunca.
In other news, I just tried to google the Picante logo and all that came up were latina booties/boobies. so just go there yoself--on Broad Street, chicos.
P.S. Remember to treat yoself todaaaay, you too biochem shawtys. i see you.
Kel Moyzie (Good ole mom) shuffled into town Friday night to cheer me up cuz I've been havin dat strep throat for a couple daysss-yuck. First it was to le cinema to see Looper. Turned out to be a dolla theater (bang for our buck) anddd the movie was one of the best I've seen in 2012 even if Joseph Gordon Lewitt looked crayweird with all the makeup he was wearing. TrEaT yoself to this. Spoiler Alert: You will laugh, you will cry, you will fall in love.
Laterr we went and got burgs and feta crumble sweet potato fries at Clocked! Mmm baby. I don't know if you know this butttt me and K can feaasst on some sweet potato fries. AND FEAST WE DID. You know we ate dat whole bucket and then some. zesty.
After that it was off to mosey at a couple art exit shows at L.Doddd before Kel headed back to Roswell (Land of 1000 suburbanites). Among the pieces a couple stuck out and I snapped some piccccsss.
Hercules Muses Bullet Stilettos-BOOMTOWN.
Fragmented Femininity 1950s
After Kelly said her farewells, it was time for me to hit the books....
......JUST KIDDING NERDZZZZZ.
I lathered my face with some flashy paints (to match the pattern of my hat!) and tromped off to see Cherub at New Earth Music Hall.
Afterwards we hung out with the band at a seeeedy house but it ended up still being a good, dub melting shindig.
Allie Keller also found a party deer. Definitely need one of these for the stable--only in horse form, duh.
Nothing like a weekend full of mom&roomie lovin :)
Now forreall tho I am locking myself in the library. oyeeeeeeee papi. final push. leyygo.
