Chelsea: hello?
Alexei: hey, do you have my phone over there?
Chelsea: why yes, in fact, i DO have your phone.
Alexei: oh good... i'd like that back.
Chelsea: well that's very interesting.
Alexei: what?
Chelsea: Perhaps we can come to an arrangement: You'd like your phone back. I'd like a grande sugar free vanilla soy latte.
Alexei: I... wha?
Chelsea: you want your phone, i am holding it hostage. In exchange for goods.
Alexei: are you serious? I...
Chelsea: no coffee no phone.
Alexei: Okay, fine, god. What was it again? Grande vanilla latte soy what?
Chelsea: you might want to write this down. Grande sugar free vanilla soy latte.
Alexei: are you serious? that is so gay. You're so gay.
Chelsea: i'll take an apple fritter too.
Alexei: hold on. (to cashier) yes, i'll take a grande sugar free vanilla soy latte. and an apple fritter. (to chelsea) is there anything else you would like? they're having a two-for-one special on my dignity.
Chelsea: make sure you get the good apple fritter.

This guy writes me this in regards to some foody chat: "thank you for clearing that up... i'm usually pensive when it comes to "vegan cheese" because sometimes you can't be sure. but i do trust RFD."

::END FLIRTATION SEQUENCE:: Abort! ABORT!

ambientfusion has started posting pictures of his homestead. It's pretty exciting, Since i've been building one of my own too! I just got started this morning. This is what i've got so far:

is anyone else watching The Black Donnellys?

i have been having some BAD LUCK on ebay lately. Two of my wins have been sub par, which is unfortunate because i've never had bad transactions before. To elaborate: i'm in dispute with a person who appears to have dropped off the face of planet, my cash in pocket, because neither i, nor ebay, nor paypal have gotten a response from her. And a comforter that i bought smells very strongly of smoke and i have no idea how to get that smell out. :(

in other news... i am keeping busy... no i actually have nothing of note going on. i'm hitting the gym and i'm eating i think well, but really i'm mostly just picking. my room smells faintly of smoke. my mom is driving up to atascadero tomorrow with my brother to hand over my bed. i swapped a shiseido cleanser for a bare escentuals handi buki brush (i loves the make up brushes) and possibly a BE blush for a small jane iredale eyeshadow and a sample of the amazing base (pending). yay.


****

as old and death-trappy as my building is, the fact that the management is behind (like decades behind) on renovating parts of the buildig has it's perks. by itself, maybe not so much, but when you add in the fact that the maintenance guy has a little crush on me that means i get firrst dibs on any old crap that pops up. when they hauled away the 1930's kitchen appliance graveyard to clean out the basement, i got my pick of three old bikes. I couldnt choose, so they are in luis's workn room until i pick one. today, they cleared away the crap that was in front of the old tenant's hallway storage- no one has used thsoe for three cycles of residents. i got four boxes of vinyl records and an armful of 20's women's underpinnings- corsets, slips, etc. sweet.

makeup memories:

mom: are you going to wear all of that?
chelsea: yeah.
mom: at once?
chelsea: yeah.
mom: outside?
chelsea: yeah.
mom: you don't have any lipstick.
chelsea: the black eyeliner doubles.
mom: how frugal of you.

A jacket from Jigga's clothing line, Rocawear, allegedly has dog fur in its collar, even though it's advertised as having fake fur. According to an investigation by The Humane Society of the United States, the Hunter jacket on Rocawear.com contains real fur from a raccoon dog, a dog indigenous to Asia that The Humane Society claims are skinned alive for the coats, hence the uproar.

As of today, the $265 coat was still a "featured" item on the Rocawear website. Late last year, a similar investigation found that raccoon dog fur was being used in a coat in rap mogul P. Diddy's "Sean John" collection; that item was removed from stores within a few days.

Reps for Jay-Z and Rocawear could not immediately be reached for comment. The Humane Society said that it informed the company of the issue a week ago, but that they've taken no action.

Mm-hmm.

oh gawd i feel so sick. don't get too comfortable, lanesplitters pizza, you are SO DEAD once i can move again.

I watched what i think was the first episode of "grease: the musical". i'm not so sure i'm going to keep watching it, although i will probably check in occasionally to see how the hotties i tagged are doing.

Def. planning on keeping up with heroes and scrubs. woot. i have not missed one single episode of scrubs ever. thanks brad. also thinking (THINKING) about watching lost. frankly it moves so slowly that it makes me angry. i was really happy when the seaosn ended. i said, "fine! go! I DON'T FUCKING CARE ANYMORE WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU FUCKERS."

things i covet:
stella mccartney trainers
comfortable looking lanesplitter pizza on other side of room (your gonna git it)
my aunt mary's little cottage in granada hills
vegan key lime pie form cafe gratitude
stupid nick riggle's "i'm the harry potter of the philosophy dept" reputation. i hate you.
stupid garson's magna cum laude. ok, i'm like .05 behind him and he might still blow it but i still resent him for it.

things i sort of hate:
tiffany's icky friends with with their marc jacobs bags and chanel sunglasses. indoors.
ok, so i want that marc jacobs bag. but i wanted it BEFORE i saw the inscriptions. they started cooing AFTER they saw the name. ew, ew, ew. no, tiffy, i do not think he is the best thing ever. i think he's a little slimy. and i hate his blonde dye job, even though- maybe especially becuase- it looks exactly like the long blonde hair i used to have.

Bad news for P. Diddy!

P. Diddy is using dog fur on one of his fashion line's jackets, and the Humane Society is barking loudly about it. A hooded jacket in the Sean John line was found to be using fur from a canine species called a raccoon dog, even though it was advertised as having an "imitation rabbit fur collar" and other materials called "faux fur." Diddy's not the only designer using the fur of raccoon dogs, which are often skinned alive for their fur. The fur is then mislabeled as being from raccoons. Diddy said yesterday that the jacket would be removed from store shelves, and that the jacket will be made with faux fur trim only henceforth.
says
from what i understand, raccoon dogs are processed for fur in China. Encyclopedia Britt. says they are indigenous to China. (i don't know if they come from anywhere else... let me know if this isn't the case). So! Not only does China have horrible animal protection laws (i.e., none whatsoever), but they also feel free to mislabel their products if they so choose.

This website has stills from a video taken in China (i've seen that one and wouldn't link to it for anything) of racoon dogs being crippled and skinned alive for their fur.

don't go unless you don't think it's a big deal.

and i guess don't buy fake fur from China.
