Dinner date!

Great food and frozen margaritas!

MAC Mineralize Blush- Love Thing

Been wearing this a lot lately. It's not my favorite shade but I find myself wearing it to work almost everyday. A bit of caution though- it has a very strong raspberry shade, so unless you want to look like a walking disco ball from the 80s, it's best to use just a little bit of this. The best thing about the flecks of gold shimmer is it doesn't make you look glittery at all- it just adds a subtle glow to your face. Lasts all day too!

More after the jump!

Market Watch: Obama gets more blame than Bush for weak economy in new poll

For those of us who adore the noble man that is George W. Bush, this is simply fantastic news! I've been waiting to hear this for the longest time!!! Finally, he isn't getting blamed for mankind's economic destruction anymore, and that just brings a smile to my face. REDEMPTION.

"34% of voters believe Obama is most to blame.23% blame Congres, 20% Wall Street, 18% believe former President Bush is mainly responsible."

Can't wait for football season!

I know this blog has sort of died so all I'm going to say I'm glad that whole basketball thing is OVER and football season is getting closer! Yay TEBOW!!!!

I dyed my hair!

I miss my black hair but I needed a change. Went for the ombre look, so it gets lighter as it hits the tips. It looks reddish in this photo but that's only because of the colored shampoo I was using that day. Here's a clearer picture of my new hair! I'm sort of blonde now! Bahahaha!

Gov. Christie & Newark Mayor star in a parody video!

Seriously this is better than the crap SNL churns out these days. Love seeing a Republican and Democrat work together- even if it's in a silly video. LOVES IT. (And Mayor Booker totally Tebows!)

Oh wow I haven't posted in a while!! Been so busy with work... so anyone excited about Mitt Romney? I love that guy- totally boring and all, but Santorum was too extreme for me and Newt was just...meh. Anyway, as of right now Romney is ahead of Obama in the polls so I'll keep my happy face on.

Anyway here's another reason to celebrate:

For the second time this year, a federal appeals court shielded a former Bush administration lawyer from a lawsuit filed by a convicted terrorist who alleged the attorney’s so-called “torture memos” led to his illegally harsh treatment while in U.S. military custody.

Ridiculous. Kinda ironic that a CONVICTED terrorist is suing people for the "harsh treatment" he received while he was in military custody. This coming from a deranged lunatic who planned to help al-Qaeda detonate a radioactive bomb just a year after 9/11. This guy needs to be re-waterboarded.

“The 9th Circuit’s decision confirms that this litigation has been baseless from the outset,” said John Yoo, now a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley. “For several years, Padilla and his attorneys have been harassing the government officials he believes to have been responsible for his detention and ultimately conviction as a terrorist. He has now lost before two separate courts of appeals, and will need to find a new hobby for his remaining time in prison.”

BOOM. I'm lovin' the smackdown! Didn't expect anything less from one of GWB's former aides! Check out the entire article here: CLICK!

...And yes, Dave, I love Tim Tebow!! But I hate the Jets!!

Donald Rumsfeld update!

This is beyond nuts.

In a good way.


Time: Why Is Donald Rumsfeld on This Package of Spicy Peanuts?
By Catherine Mayer

There are, in this salty tale of frolics, politics and peanuts, a number of what Donald Rumsfeld might call known knowns. These are things we know that we know -- such as how a photograph of a young Rumsfeld, a chopstick balanced on his protruding upper lip as he gazes at a giggling Geisha, came to decorate packets of U.K. snack food manufacturer Tyrrell's Spicy Coated Peanuts. "All our packs feature imagery which aims to be rather entertaining, quirky and just a bit different from the norm of popping a slice of cheese and an onion on the front of a pack," emails Oliver Rudgard, Tyrrell's Marketing Director. "We thought this image was in line with our brand's light-hearted and slightly eccentric view on life."

The story is rich with known unknowns, too. For example, we know that the former White House Chief of Staff and Secretary of Defense did not know that his more than slightly eccentric portrait was being used this way until TIME informed his people.

And here's another Rumsfeldian known unknown: few Britons ripping open a packet of the wasabi-flavored treats would recognize the anonymous man unwittingly pressed into service to promote the product. There's no caption to the photograph on the packaging. "We chose it because we loved the picture," confirms Rudgard. "The fact that Donald Rumsfeld was featured was merely coincidental." Indeed, the packaging was an unknown unknown. British consumers didn't know they didn't know the story behind it.

Coincidence ensured that this unknown unknown and the known unknowns became known knowns. An eagle-eyed TIME staffer picked up a few groceries in a convenience store during a recent holiday in the north of England. He spotted the photograph and felt sure it belonged to a set taken by the photographer David Hume Kennerly during President Gerald Ford's 1974 visit to Japan. Kennerly, duly contacted, confirmed a further known unknown. Like Rumsfeld, he had no idea that the image had found a new and salty-fingered audience.
