That weekend was B-A-N-A…oh, you know how Gwen finishes it off.

This weekend was spent with Britt, Jared, Robin, Rachel, Dawg

…oh, and ALL the other Hot Bloggers who could make the trip into NYC.

Trust me, you're going to want to buy the calendar when it comes out.

If I wrote a post about this weekend it would take me a week to finish it. So, how about you look at photos instead?

Friday special care package from Morgetron arrived then dinner chez PoppyDawg with Britt and Jared.

Saturday tourist extravaganza and the Hot Blogger Calendar dinner.

Sunday Hot Blogger Calendar photo shoot at Some Studio (scroll down a little) in Manhattan. Who knew I would love Jane's parents so much? I'm so weird.

After Sunday's shoot Dawg and I went to M&M World and Hershey then had steaks with his parents then we went home and I asked him to tell me stories about his life before I knew him so he did. :love: :love: :love:

And because there are so many links in this post I just target="_blank" 'd all the links. You are welcome. :pfft:

Remember when I used to post lots of times a day?

Yesterday Earl was having a conversation in his comments about the funniest SNL skit ever after which a funny skit was never written. (I'm paraphrasing.) Anyway, the skit in question was when Lindsay Lohan was at dinner with Debbie Downer and family at a Disney resort restaurant when everyone lost their shit and couldn't stop laughing, making the skit 100 times funnier than it would have been otherwise. I give you that skit:

This one time, on Seinfeld…

Do you remember that episode of Seinfeld, "The Parking Garage," where Kramer, George, Elaine, and Jerry all go to the mall together so Kramer can buy an air conditioner but no one remembers where they parked the car?

(That's the entire episode. You're welcome.)

Yah, that actually happened to me yesterday except I had no friends with me and I was carrying around a 3-in-1 printer and a ream of paper instead. I refused to ask anyone for assistance of any sort, I refused to panic, and I refused to abandon my purchase, so I walked up and down and around in circles for 45 minutes, only to finally put common sense to the test and realize I didn't actually come up any floors when I entered the garage, so obviously my car was parked on the first floor.

I'm smart and stuff. Really. And yes, I do appreciate the irony. I feel slightly comforted that this happened to Jerry and the gang when they were in Jersey, out of their complete comfort zone.

And, yes, it is ok to laugh at me. I am, after all, here for your amusement. :winks:

Today's adventure: Camping out at the apartment waiting for the electric company to arrive and replace the meter that was removed from the apartment between the last tenant's occupancy and ours. The window of time given for them to arrive: 7:30am to 2:30pm. I'm bringing a coffee, a book, Chinese leftovers (tofu!), and a pillow.

hey I'm a cow cat I'm curious, hey watch me now I'm furious

I was checking my "real name" email and found a message from my brother with this video in it:

At 2m30s things start getting REALLY funny. I am quite happy I was alone while watching it, since I laughed so hard I'm sure animals everywhere are covering their ears with their paws to block out my incessant high-pitched giggle.

Birfdy recap

Dawg came to visit me Thursday night even though he never actually admitted he was coming to see me. (I love surprises, which I'm guessing is why he did that. He kept trying to tell me he was having conversations with Squishy Dawg even though I heard car and road sounds… mmmmhmm.)

We went to sleep after a little conversation of our own.

I woke up and it was my birthday.

I dragged Dawg to lunch at my favorite Chinese restaurant.

I dragged Dawg to the waterfront to walk around and then drink beverages to rehydrate us.

I dragged Dawg to the tallest free-standing filing cabinet art in the entire world.

I dragged Dawg to my storage unit to show him all the stuff I'll eventually be bringing with me. (He did not freak out. He's weird.)

I dragged Dawg to the Lake Champlain Chocolates factory to make him buy me chocolates. (heeheeheeehheeenheheeeeeheeee num)

I kindly brought him home where boxes were waiting outside my door.

Dawg dragged the presents inside.

I opened the presents.

I love my presents. … Oh, hmm, you wanted to know what they ARE? Think Keurig. I've wanted one of those damn things for years. Dawg had no idea, and yet he got me one anyway. He reads my mind. He also got me extra coffee singles and a book of coffee recipes and the movie This is Spinal Tap. :grins:

I primed my Keurig then we had a coffee.

My mom called to wish me a happy birthday. Apparently I forgot to mention to her that I haven't moved yet. Oopsie.

Dawg and I had a conversation with Squishy Dawg.

Dawg and I went to see a pencil disappear. I liked that trick very much. I liked Heath Ledger's character waaaaaaay too much, and am starting to wonder if I am a psychopath. We had popcorn, 44 oz sodas (we each had one), and candy.

I checked my voicemail after the movie and heard my stepdad singing to me. :love: bleep.

Dawg and I discussed the movie on the way home and it has now been confirmed for the millionth time that Dawg leads a very exciting life.

We got home to find the cats had not cleaned up after my tornadoing of the apartment with the gift wrap and boxes and packing materials.

I couldn't stand the fuzz on my teeth from all the candy so I brushed my teeth.

I wrote this recap.

Here we are.

Thanks to all who emailed me, sent me cards, wrote on my Facebook wall, and made posts about me. Also, thanks to some guy who sent me dinosaur forks and spoons.

Um, in case anyone left on the planet didn't know, my birthday was today. I'm 21, for the 14th year in a row. (Use your fingers to count and you'll realize that's correct.)

10 things about Poppy

1. I am very deep/introspective. I know this. I can't help myself, nor do I want to.
2. I'm not very good at catching feral kitten-cats.
3. I giggle at inappropriate moments during movies.
4. I love space of all kinds, especially the space I'll never get to hang out in.
5. I have a second boyfriend named Kit Kat. He got to second base with me. Dawg was not pleased.
6. I like my steak done medium well, regardless of the cut. Don't bitch at me for liking it this way. It will do you no good.
7. I have a habit of imagining myself into other people's situations and feeling their pain. Apparently I like pain.
8. I like grape and pineapple juice the best, equally.
9. I am wanty, not needy, as was made clear to me on Saturday. :smiles:
10. I am sometimes misunderstood simply because I'm quirky in the way I speak.

Isn't it fun when I write a totally BS post like this? YAH!

Hi, all my friends in CANADA!

Ok, back to my weekend of totally goofing off. Bye!

days go by

What a roller coaster! I like roller coasters.

I'd like to thank Britt for kicking me in the ass today and Adam for working his magic. I like magic.

On to something completely separate from my cryptic self-ness:

This is part 1 of 4. I don't know if it will take me 4 days, 1 day, or somewhere in between days, or maybe longer than 4 days to post four videos. We'll see.

And, in case you hadn't noticed, there's a pretty humorous Cereal Wednesday post available. :winks:
