Bikini Karate Babes!

Some days, I really love my co-workers. It was kind of a slow Friday afternoon, so when everyone started clustering around one of the guy's desk, I went over to take a look (keep in mind we work in an open environment. Ten people, no cubes, no walls).

It was then that we were introduced to the most glorious fighting game ever - Bikini Karate Babes! Think Mortal Kombat except with chicks with giant boobs in bikinis. It's great!

When Aphrodite (or was it Venus?) shot flames out of her boobs, we were impressed. We laughed hysterically when Venus took her top off and used it to pop TeinWen. You must try it yourself.

Fighting games and boobs. What more could you want?

Love To Love You, Baby

Inspired by the ever-talented Kristine and given the perfect image by the pin-up queen Robyn, I've created a lovely Valentine's Day skin. It's got a little bit of skin to it to be just the tiniest bit naughty. Enjoy!

Oh, Mickey Usted es Tan Fino!

When I ripped my Chicago soundtrack this week, it marked the first time I've used my CD drive to rip a CD on this computer.

I was amazed at how fast it ripped, so I decided to do something I've always wanted to do - rip all my CDs into mp3 files. While doing, this I've come across tons of CDs that I'd completely forgotten about and in many cases, never even opened.

One of those was Living In Oblivion : The 80's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 which contains "Mickey" by Toni Basil in Spanish! I had to share it with you, so right click and save here to hear it.

(Btw, if the Spanish in the title sucks, blame Babel Fish. I haven't been in a Spanish class for ten years.)

Ubercool Lunchboxes

If you read my post today at Changes - Turning a New Leaf about buying a new lunchbox, you already know that I am the proud new owner of an Army of Darkness lunchbox that came with a set of Evil Dead shotglasses.

While looking for that little gem, I found the coolest lunch box ever, which I too now own. It's a Mexican Day of the Dead metal lunchbox. It's got capering skeletons and demons along the sides. What else could you possibly want out of a lunchbox?

I never got the lunchbox collection thing before, but these were far too cool to pass up. My snacks will be traveling in style!

Reasons For Love #17

Every Wednesday those who are involved in a relationship with somebody share a few (simple but significant) reasons for their love. Please keep in mind that this does not have to be a romantic relationship. It can be about a parent, a sibling, a friend, a co-worker, your kid, your dog, whatever.

Stop in here to join the notify list, see who else has left their reasons, and to be added to the blogroll. Also, feel free to save the button below to your server and link it to http://www.neuroticfishbowl.com/reasons.html



I love Steven because...

It's a Group Thing XLVIII

I really love some of the bird terms that can be found in An Exaltation of Larks: The Ultimate Edition by James Lipton. With that in mind, today's "It's a Group Thing" term is:

A Murmuration of Starlings

For those of you who missed what this is all about, each week I will feature a term for groups of things from An Exaltation of Larks: The Ultimate Edition by James Lipton. I found the book really interesting and wanted to share it with everyone.

New Download - Cell Block Tango

I can't believe I didn't think of doing this before, but since I keep going on and on about the Chicago soundtrack, I decided to give you a little taste.

"Cell Block Tango," one of my favorite pieces from the film, is now the current mp3 download in my sidebar. Look under Music Selections to find it. Enjoy!

Update: For all people coming to this page from a search engine, click on the main index link at the top and then look towards the bottom of the sidebar for Music Selections.

A Touching Tribute

A touching tribute to the heroes of Columbia. I cried most of the way through it.

Valentine's Skin

Kristine was talking about her new gorgeous Valentine's Day skin which reminded me to tell everyone that there is a Valentine's Day skin here too. It was the first skin I made right after I started blogging.

I would love to do a light, pink girly skin, but I don't know if I'll have time before V-Day, especially since I'm currently working on another one. :-)

Today

Today was one of those days. You know those days where everything is screwed up?

It started out with me oversleeping then getting to work only to find out that I have a client meeting in a few hours (surprise!) for a new client, so that's like skipping ten steps in how we're supposed to do things. It progressed to weird client expectations (lady, that is so not in your scope) and projects that are doomed. We're supposed to have dance class tonight, but I don't feel like going. I'd rather sit here and do nothing.

At least the day is over. Kind of making it hard to come up with my Participation Positives!

Lovely Sunday

I've been sitting around not doing anything today except playing Zeus: Master of Olympus and its expansion pack, Poseidon. I can't remember why I stopped playing these games. They are so fun.

Steven and I had dinner last night with my brother, his girlfriend, her sister, and two of their friends. Fun time, but I had way too much to drink. At least I didn't get sick. :-)

I guess it's just about time to go back to work. Pity.
