muddy buddy

happy tuesday to everyone! i mean happy tuesday to anyone who still visits this thing =)

hope everyone enjoyed the weekend...can't believe it was so friggin hot. Not that I'm complaining since this heat wave is probably the last chance i get to retain my tan before i return to my blinding white color.

so on saturday, a couple of us had our 3rd annual pumpkin carving party. i totally forgot how bad pumpkins smell =) but it was fun listening to some outkast while carefully carving my masterpiece. i carved a witch over a caldron...kinda tricky but it turned out pretty good. i just hope that it will last til halloween.
on sunday, i woke up at the crack of dawn (at 5:00a) to get ready for MUDDY BUDDY!!! can i say freakin ridiculous!! i had to bike the first leg of the race, which was pretty much the steepest hill i have ever walked, let alone bike. i only biked about 40-50ft from the START line before i fell off my bike!!! world record for biggest loser right here. so i casually picked up my biked and walked alongside it for a whole mile...UPHILL!! i was royaly pissed that it was so hard on the first part of the race. besides that, the race was fun with all the obstacles. i had to jump over a wall, run through tires, swing on monkey bars, crawl under a cargo net, climb and descend down a cargo net, and of course, crawl through a puddle of mud. that was the best part..it was so freakin hot i jumped right into my cool mud bath. they had a fire hose to clean everyone off...the guy who held the hose got to see a lot of boobies and butts. some of the ladies really really wanted to get clean =) so that was my muddy buddy experience...i will post some pix as soon as i get them. i will do this again next year so if anyone wants to do this, let me know so we can start training =)

so everyone's goin to DAE's party right? i decided on what i wanted to be but figuring out the logistics and engineering of it is givin my a TUMOR. which probably means that i will need to buy an outfit on thursday nite. ugh. serves me right to wait until the last minute.

that's it from me...hope everyone is having a great week! enjoy the weather while it lasts. see everyone on friday!

revisited

hola peeps! i figured its about time to get this thing started up again. i know some of you have strayed from here but i'm hoping that you will make special guest appearances and drop everyone a hello. summer has come to an end and fall is upon us. i'm so excited! fall and winter are my favorite seasons. i get to wear all my sweaters, scarves, beanies, thermals, long underwear...um, i guess you guys get the point. and yes, i am extremely excited that snowboarding season is just around the corner. i love doing face plants...that's the best!
seemed like everyone had a fun time at phil's partay. apparently, i missed some good singing and metrosexual activity. wished i was there to see it. if people have pix, please share because i really did miss the festivities.
anyways, just wanted to post and say hi to everyone.
Have a great tuesday!!

yo yo yo,

Following in the footsteps of Sylv's manolo's and Regan's dunks, my flipflop-wearing feet have finally gone solo in blogland. I've joined Sylv, the original xangangsta, over on Xanga.com. I thought it was a little easier for someone as computer unsavvy as me to use for her first solo blog.

So stop on by clicking below...
::Breakfast at Tiffany's::

(taps microphone)...is this thing on?

i don't know if anyone even reads this anymore, but i'll take my chances.

house renovation sucks. right now it's less renovating and more tossing of 20-something years worth of junk out. i don't see the end of this process coming for another month. so if you ever happen to drop by, please excuse the mess.

i'm all about the Wade Robson Project on MTV. haven't missed a single episode. man, mtv keeps dishing out hit after hit. first newlyweds, which i honestly only watch to see how dumb jessica simpson is this week. and now wade "i'm the real reason brit and justin broke up" robson has his own gig. makes you go hmmm don't it? but i don't care, i love this show. but i'm wonderin why all these gymnasts think they must automatically be great dancers. sorry but the triple mctwistin aerial backflips aren't cuttin it for me. not when you're tryin to do your thang to sean paul. my favorite are the fellas who shake their booties like they just came out of a beyonce video. hot stuff.

coming attraction: following in the footsteps of fellow bloggees who moved from the 3rd floor to their own individual penthouse suites upstairs, i too will be setting up shop soon. so stay tuned folks.

peace,
~ taft

hi all! let me rephrase that - hi taft and sylv! well thanks for the support (comments and such) on my blog...i told ya I'd still post here! yeah snup's bday is around the corner...not sure what he's gonna do...

man, 1st big al doesn't have his picnic...and no one blogs anymore...and snup's probably not gonna have a celebration...and no one blogs anymore...and whats next? no post t-day dinner?!?! man...is the 3rd floor crumbling? maybe we should have a retreat at dan's house haha...or a day in healdsfield, or healdstown, or whatever that dang place is called...

oh yeah, tiff's campaign slogans:

Give Davis the Shaft. Bring in TAFT!
We need Sass. We need Bass! (your new nickname, just like Lance)
We don't want any Tiff. We want Tiffany!

Her main platform would have nothing to do w/ the deficit, but rather turning LAX into the ultimate lacrosse venue instead of an airport, for it to truly live up to its name.

anyways, keep it real...i'm 5K

peace in,
reegMAN

i think this blogspot was a trend......

and now everyone seems to be over it....or are there still voyeurs out there???? work has been wild and life in general seems to be moving at a faster pace....but i have been popping in to read about tiffy's latest adventures....


i have also, like reegsta, jumped back on to the personal bloggging bandwagon....xanga.com is an awesome site that makes html a piece of cake for anyone.....


how is everyone doing? i can't believe summer is practically over....and what's up w/ snoop's bday???? i say we go to HOOTERS.....



i heard they have wicked buffalo wings....WICKED i can't believe i actually used that word....so East Coast circa 1997....seriously though...Hooters would be fun! i kinda want one of those shirts/tank tops.....although filling out that shirt like those hooter girls would be quite a problem...

gotta go back to work....Tiify=can't wait for the cocktail party!.....Steffie&Ant= Happy soon to be 3 year anniversary!.....Michelle= come home soon.....Philly=have you been watching "race to the altar?" what about "boy meets boy?"......Reegs= sup homie...i already left messages for you on your blogspot.....everyone else= miss ya and let's get together soon!


peace out.

Watching: The Daily Show

Hey I should change the picture up top to one of just me since I seem to be the only one still blogging on this thing. Ollie ollie ox n free, ok guys you can all come out now. Anyone? Is this thing on?

Answer: Caddyshack, Chevy Chase
Answer2: Fight Club, Brad Pitt

New quote: "“Well all I'm saying is that I want to look back and say that I did it the best I could while I was stuck in this place. Had as much fun as I could when I was stuck in this place. Played as hard as I could when I was stuck in this place.”

This Road Rules cast sucks. All they do is bitch, complain, lose missions, and replace one lame castmember with another equally annoying castmember who whines and complains even more. Listen to me, I'd fit right in. I think the producers need to take part of their handsome reward away for everytime they lose a mission. Then maybe we'll see some real effort out of these road rulers.

With all the news of the east coast blackout, I was suddenly reminded of that one Sportscenter commercial. The one where the power goes out in the building and Dan Patrick checks the problem out and finds Lance Armstrong taking a rest on his bike in the generator room. Those crazy Sportscenter guys, always coming up with entertaining commercials.

Thumbs Up:
-The Daily Show...it's how the news should be told. Jon Stewart rocks.
-Queer Eye for the Straight Guy...funny as hell, but those guys also give out great tips. I think all the guys should get together and watch and learn. The episode where they made over the guy proposing to his girlfriend was quite the tearjerker. Tres romantique. Catch the repeats on Bravo if ya can.
-Mary J Blige's "Love at First Sight"....Diddy and Mary J working together again, of course it's gonna be a hit.
-The Chris Rock promos for the MTV VMA's....I can't wait for the show.

Ollie ollie ox n free,

WHAT A BUMMER...

Unfortunately, it looks like the cocktail party has to be postponed until further notice. My mom is planning to paint the entire inside of our house and the painter guys start this Friday. Bummer. We probably won't be able to have it for a few weeks, until the painting's done and all that paint smell has subsided. If I happen to see any of you next week and I look a little wigged out or high, it's probably because of the paint. No, really.

Bummer,
~Taft

Listening to: "The Last Song" by The All-American Rejects

Hey party people,

Regan - I meant to blog and identify your quote from the always classic Billy Madison, but I never got around to it. Really, I did know where it was from. Anyway, here's one back at you (or anyone else who would like to contribute...)
"A flute without holes is not a flute. A donut without a hole is a danish."

And another one for kicks...
"It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything."

I just returned yesterday from a week long family vacation in LA and San Diego. For the most part I had a good time, but I could have done without some of the family drama that came about. My skin definitely got darker (but not to the point where I changed ethnicities on ya) and the hair got lighter. Made some quality purchases, including 3 newsboy-style caps ($2 each), 2 pairs of sunglasses ($3 each) and 3 pirated DVD's ($5 each). That's my kind of shopping. But now I'm pooped. Over the course of the past two weeks, I went from Davis to Sonoma to LA to San Diego, back to LA again and now I'm home.

Missed out on quite a bit of reality TV. Someone catch me up on all the action (ahemm Phil).

I'm going to eat, then hit the sack.
~Taft

P.S. Cocktail party at my house this weekend. Friday or Saturday? Think about it. I'll be giving you all a ring soon.

HELLO!!!!?!?!?! Where is everyone?? Must I answer my own question?? Okay, the answer is Billy Madison, and the character played is Chris Farley.

You know, I grew up in a fam of 9 people, so I'm not used to talking to myself. Please, we don't want this site to go the ways of New Edition, A Tribe Called Quest, The Carpenters,The Fat Boys, Guy, and Wilson Phillips...we can't disband!

Post like some cereal yall!! C'mon, your lives can't be as uneventful as mine!

Okay, I know I violated Commandment VI - Thou shall not post back 2 back blogs. But drastic times call for drastic measures.

In case yall forgot: its universalid, then universal.

aight, enough of this rant....visit my site!

reegadocious

Check it out! Since I didn't want my posts to get lost in the abundance of entries here, I started a new one!

Answer: Serendipity

Here's one for you: "That Ms. Vaughn is one fine piece of aise" Name the movie and character.

where is the love?

Listening to: "Still on my Brain" by Justin Timberlake

Just poppin in to say hi. How is everyone doing these days? As you can see by my blog login time, I'm awake at a whoppin five in the morning. Think I'm morphing back into my insomniac self.

Bartending rocks. If you'd like to hire me for private parties or events, do give me a ring. I really need to take a break from all this bartending stuff though because I'm starting to even dream about these frikkin drinks. Not good. Almost makes me feel like I'm an alcoholic.

Hope yall are doing well. Drop by and give us a heads up on things. I'm out.
