ReLo'd to BA from SD

in late 2006, relocated my angst, business, and social life to NoCal from SoCal ... just a 40-something chick in the 'burbs of the SF bay area who randomly posts about random topics ... the occasional quirky stories of dating (or not) at 40-ish, work-week cubeopolis frivolity, rambling musings on nostalgika, and the occasional introspective moments in life.(thanks for visiting! >p, b)

pr5air: l.a.g. speaks/types (guest blog post)

Bookmark and Share

BONUS for pr5air-er peeps
deadline submittal (not more than 3 submittals):
Monday, 09/22, 10:00 AM (pacific)


(for those who actually read the blog posts
and e-mails that are sent out weekly
... yes, it's kinda rigged, perhaps)


the following is from l.a.g., who has been mathematically eliminated from the pr5air frivolity of potentially winning a prize worth $1.50 + tax (california). (virtual players, we will pay shipping & handling, which, very likely, may even cost more than the prize.)


to be eligible for
3.75 BONUS POINTS (winner take all), you must follow directions (just like a raffle/sweepstakes):
  • read l.a.g.'s blog post below
  • understand the "original" rules (aka l.a.g's blog post below)
start of l.a.g.'s blog post where l.a.g is offering up 3.75 points:
boohoohoo boohoohoohoo! sob . . . (su/sd, please sob with me)

i'm trying to contain my sadness from getting auf'd from our precious project runway game . . . obviously, i have been religiously watching the show, and i am crushed to be out of the running. to all ya'll who are still in . . . you biatches!

so, my therapist (west coast dust bunny) recommended that what might help my healing process is to donate my points to someone in need. but do it in a fun gamey kinda way . . . so, here goes . . . up for grabs, my whopping 3.75 points. . . .

and for those points . . . you must correctly guess the color of shoes I will be wearing for my casual, hippy, non-traditional wedding next Sunday [09/28] . . .

the rules:

only one person per color (to ensure winner takes all points) - and first come first served on color choices (sorry, wcdb - hope this doesn't get too complicated, but with only 3-4 people actually reading the emails, it shouldn't be too hard!)
1. blue steel
2. grease lightning
3. sea foam green
4. strappy midnight black
5. champagne
6. virgin mary white
7. cabernet
8. pumpkin
9. eggshell
10. red, white, and blue
11. chartreuse
and THEN ... understand the following "revisions/updates" to the rules, still intended for a "winner takes all" outcome ...
  • given the 11 color choices that l.a.g. listed (above) ... you must respond via posting a comment to this blog post:
    • name ... state your pr5air name (or real name or maybe some other moniker or alias in another country)
    • entry time ... state the date & time you are posting/e-mailing your response (include your time zone) - this maintains l.a.g.'s intent to award the bonus points to pr5air-er "first come, first served"
    • 3 color choices ... list 3 (FOUR) COLORS in RANK ORDER (#1, #2, #3) what you believe is the color of l.a.g.'s wedding shoes

  • winner selection process ... if you are the first responder and your #1 color is l.a.g's wedding shoe color, you get the 3.75 points. if not, we will go to the next responder's #1 choice, until any of the responders have chosen the correct shoe color.
    • "what if" no one's #1 is the correct shoe color? ... then we start with the first responder - and if ANY of the first responder's remaining two choices are l.a.g's wedding shoe color, you get whole 3.75 points.
      • if you have not selected the color of her shoes, we will then move on to the next responder and apply the same "what if" process

  • allowable number of entries ... you are allowed not more than 3 individual entries. in other words, you can submit 3 sets of your 3 color choices
tie breaker ... if for SOME REASON there is a tie, which means NO ONE guessed l.a.g.'s wedding shoes color, here is the tie breaker - - - for any (or all) of the 11 colors listed, provide a brief:
  • POP-CULTURE reference (if applicable) and/or
  • MAKE-US-LAUGH
we will then award the bonus point to the responder that made us tinkle a little in our chonies.

(btw, congrats to l.a.g.!!!)

pr5air|break: ... pre-saturday fiber break with the pr5air-ers

Bookmark and Share

"they call me ...


... tater salad."

and now for all you pr5air-ers who gots your monikers ... l.a.g., fashionista, t&c, buzz, commish, shades, su/sd, wcdbunny, tree, sactofloyd, cobra kai, jenm, ponytail. and for the on-lookers (that i know of), we have ... billn, kaanswfm, joshw, lbelle1, diva.

(note: some of these web sites have adult content-ads.
that means some boobies. dunno why. just warnin' ya.)

  • if you were a child of sarah palin, head over here
and just in case that's not enough ...
o.k. - that's it for bhg of nicknames.

pr5air|break: ... from & for sacto floyd

Bookmark and Share

sacto floyd (who is ode-licious as demonstrated over here) has lamented about epi9.
from sacto floyd:
sacto floyd was not happy about last night's ep.
sacto floyd didn't care for the winning design.
sacto floyd thinks he can do better.
sacto floyd needs to take his meds now.
sacto floyd puts the lotion in the basket.
all is well with the world.
therefore, wcdbunny must r|ode
for sacto floyd with the obvious ...



precious.
apparently, sacto floyd is suedelicious.

billn has smooth skin?)

pr5air: epi6 - therapy(ish)

Bookmark and Share

[a.k.a. "lay off me. i'm starving."]

well, i actually don't have an epi6-therapy confession as i had offered up for epi5 (endless love) and epi4 (peck peck scaping). so i offer this as a little 30-second pr5air epi-break.


not quite the same thing at all (but it's what came to mind as i was trying to sift through my pictures for a certain former ono sushi server who was a bit of a drag queen in his younger years).

break out the treats and wine tomorrow night - i'm told by ddust "
JUST WAIT until you meet Hedda Lettuce - she is a TRIP!!!!"

... now back to the epi6 reminder videos!!!

[tango-isms shared among pr5air peeps to date:
bite-me-licious, hurlicious, shirlicious, floydlicious, ... others]
