A few awesome things...

I've been mulling over a few different things to blog about today. I thought about doing something with some substance to it - like discussing some world event. Then I realized that would likely end up with me going on some big rant about something or other and I've been having mini rants over at Hooking Up Smart most of the afternoon.

Instead I have decided to do a random post of some awesome stuff. It's largely stuff that makes me laugh at the moment and I felt the need to share.

1. Regretsy
One of my more recent discoveries on the interwebz. Lots of snark and hilarity in response to some of the weird ass shit that gets posted on Etsy. For example -this vagina style bike seat cover (semi-NSFW), this giant penis sculpture (NSFW) and a real-life Batmobile. The whole site is hilarious for the whimsicle fuckery it displays.

2. Etsy
The inspiration for the above. I have yet to actually purchase anything on Etsy, but there is some cool shit on there that doesn't just involve vagina, penises and wtf-ness. I don't think I've mentioned it on here, but I used to knit a lot back in second and third year university. I got a bit too busy though with life after that though and the last thing I wanted to do after writing massive notes and typing huge essays was anything that required to move my hands/wrists in a repetitive motion. In any event, I used to be quite crafty as a kid too, and I've recently gotten back into knitting since I've re-discovered what free time is. There is something great about creating something tangible you can hold.

3. Lamebook
Everyone has one of those friends on facebook. The kid that posts some really stupid shit and it makes you want to just smack them upside the head. Then you're embarrassed that you're even facebook friends with them. Well - this is a site that celebrates the random stupid things people do on facebook. It's magical.

4. Legally Blonde the Musical
The entire thing is searchable on Youtube which is how I found it. I'd heard some of the songs before, but i sat down the other night and watched the entire thing. Gay or European has to be one of the funniest songs I've heard since...

5. Avenue Q
With songs like The Internet is for Porn and Everyone's a Little Bit Racist it's a snarky musical that never fails to make me laugh.

6. Emmy Intros
I don't really watch Award Shows. I will, however, search for funny bits after the fact once someone else has told me about it. The intro Conan did a few years ago is still makes me laugh. This years Glee inspired intro also made me laugh.

7. Scandinavia and the World
Webcomic I find hilarious having lived in Sweden for a year. :D

8. I'm on the supply list!
This isn't a clickable link and likely isn't nearly as awesome to you guys as it is to me, but still. It's pretty freaking awesome that I walked out of school and into an entry level job in my career path immediately following my summer job.

9. My killer Nine West red stilletos that I got in May but still absolutely adore - especially because they were only $30 at the outlet!

10. New season of Glee next week!

11. New season of Big Bang Theory also next week! (I think)

12. Oreos

13. Cake - especially celebration cake that I plan on having because I'm employed! (sorta)

14. All You Can Eat Buffets - that not only have prime rib and yorkshire pudding, but a massive dessert bar

15. Being able to just relax and enjoy life without freaking out about what I'm doing for the first time in years
