40 X 365: 20. Girl Scout Cookies!

20. Girl Scout Cookies!

This may be more of a love/hate relationship, but damn, these cookies are good. Maybe it’s because they are created by combining the sweet, unspoiled nectar of youth, a creamy dash of capitalism and a healthy dose of chocolatey competition.


Samoas are my favorite.


Not to be confused with Samoans, which seems pretty great too.

40 X 365: 19. The Man in Head to Toe Fur!

19. The Man in Head to Toe Fur!

I am not a fur fan, but this man gets credit for originality. Most people wouldn’t dress up like the King of the Ewoks and parade around in public. Here’s to not wasting anything including the ears and the paws.

I was in the lift line behind this gentleman during my recent ski trip. Things to note: The ears on the dead animal, the feet dangling, the goggles around the dead creatures body and the nonchalance of everyone else around him. I mean, he is a walking carcass for god's sake.

Valentine's Day, revisited.

While it passed a little bit ago, I wanted to give everyone a heads up on my valentine's day. It was pretty much the "I am my own lover" day I predicted. I did receive a few valentines though, so I wasn't totally alone. First, I received the obligatory card from my parents. Touching, really. Then I received a beautifully wrapped package from a certain gentleman caller that was right up my alley (not that package or that alley, you pervs). It was the first season of 30 Rock and I have now seen every episode at least three times.

Tina Fey plus Alec Baldwin equals romance to me.


I also got my wonderful package of goodies from Alix, my Valetine's Day swap partner. I am a turd and didn't take pictures, but I covered most bases with the help of the internet. Her package to me included:

A Valentine's Day Pez dispenserI ate all three packages of pez from the dispenser, by myself, in one day.


A bath salt wonderfulness from lushThe item I received was heart shaped, but you get the gist. It smelled like heaven and made my skin so smooth my ass didn't itch from dryness for the first time this whole winter.


A rubber duckie

This little guy did indeed make bath time lots of fun. Lots and lots of fun.

And raspberry white chocolate from Starbucks and a beautiful bookmark, neither of which I could find pictures of on the internet. The chocolate was also inhaled the first day and the bookmark is placed firmly in my current read. Alix deserves some serious credit for these presents that really made my day.
I also received a specatacular Valentine from my dear friend Alexis. It was handmade, sweet and gave me something to chew for the last week.


Nothing says I love you like a box full of candy hearts all saying "I love you."


Last, but not least, Miss Vu sent me love in the form of pomegranate jelly bellys. Following a familiar pattern, the bag was consumed within an hour. They were as delicious as was the sentiment behind them.

Just as delicious as the real thing, but without the risk of staining everything within a 15 yard radius red.

I made a nice little set up for myself. I took my mini tv and dvd player into my bathroom, set it on my toilet, angled it so that I could see it while in the tub, then plugged it in. I got myself two beers and some chocolate and set them within easy reach of the tub. I filled up the bath with warm water and the bath stuff and duckie from alix. I popped in the 30 Rock from gentleman caller, pressed play, got in the tub and enjoyed one hell of an evening.

This is me enjoying my bath. Only, you know, way hotter. And without a dvd remote in one hand and a beer in the other.


The only problem was, after two beers, the bladder was a bit full, and it was a little unwieldy trying to quickly move the tv/dvd off my toilet with slippery hands, all the while trying not to electrocute myself. The mission was accomplished, but there were a couple of close calls. Overall, Valentine's Day was a great day this year. I will have to start working if I want to return it to the day of self loathing and pity it once was.

40 X 365: 18. Red Meat!

18. Red Meat!

Nothing spells delicious like a big, bloody, rare piece of beef. With the right spices and hot off the grill, I have been known to eat my weight in red meat. Make me this meal to perfection and I’m yours.

I just drooled on my keyboard.

40 X 365: 17. Facial Hair! (preferably on men)

17. Facial Hair!

There is something about a man with facial hair that makes me weak in the knees. They exude ruggedness and masculinity. You can exfoliate while making out. Plus, I hear they are eager pleasers, if you know what I mean.

Fine men made finer by facial hair:

Ryan Gosling

There are no words needed here.


George Clooney

I'm not even a Clooney fan, but his hotness cannot be denied with that salt and pepper around his mouth.



Jason Lee

I admit the hillbilly look might not be for everyone, but this 'stache brings out Jason's inner redneck and I like it. Don't judge me.




Jeff Bridges

If you want to track the origin of my beard fetish, look no further. Actually, as I'm typing this, I realize you can probably trace my overall taste in men back to the Dude, which, frankly, is pathetic.



Peter Sarsgaard

OK, I'm getting a little nervous here. I realize I first fell in love with Peter in Garden State where he played a pot smoking, living at home with his mom, grave digging loser. But he did not have a beard in that role. He is infinitely hotter here. And more distinguished. And successful. Seriously, I'm not attracted to losers.



Seth Rogen

I hereby declare my love and fidelity for Seth Rogen. You hear me Seth? Oh the things I would do for you and your facial hair. I'd shampoo it. I'd itch it. I wouldn't even complain much if you left clippings in the sink. I'm going to stop because I guarantee Seth will get his own 40 X 365, but let the record show I love him. And this picture is a two for because you see the hotness of bearded Paul Rudd on his shirt compared to the less hot beardless Paul in person.

40 X 365: 16. Pit Bulls!

16. Pit Bulls!


Sure, they have a bad reputation, but for a loyal, cuddly and playful dog, look no further than the noble American Staffordshire terrier. Nothing feels sweeter than a Pit curled up against you, its life complete just being near you.

How could you not love that face?


And Jon Stewart owns two! Can Jon Stewart be wrong?
