Hey YOU happy birthday!!!
Too bad you're sick because of natural causes today. Maybe next year when I can legally buy alcohol? ;D
[Ed. Note: There are WAY too many b-days in July.]

So yea, I was sitting in the "boyfriend chair" at Nordstroms this past saturday while shopping w/ my loved one when I got hit by a revelation:

Girls clothes are so friggin' cheap!

Grr... Argh...
On avg. girls clothes're at least 50% cheaper than guys. Sorta got teary-eyed when I saw a sale item for $9.95. Avg. guy sales price: $19.95 each (we have to buy them in bulk)
It's not fair.

Well, at least I know why some of you always complain 'bout havin' too many clothes.

[fanfare]
I've got a counter now to help pump up my ego after I realize how many of you visit my lil' page on the net.
Then it deflates when I realize I'm half the hits. =P

Just imagine me singin' in my smooth, laid back, Reggie kinda way =P

Happy birthday to YOU
Happy birthday to YOU
Happy birthday my lady (draw it out real sexy)
Happy birthday to YOU

And now, the filipino remix. Feel free to join in w/ me. Just add in the fobbish accent.

Happy birthday to YOU [WOO!]
Happy birthday to YOU [WOO!]
Happy birthday dear Sandee [WOO!]
Happy birthday to YOU [WOO! x some #]

There are actually alot of ways to remix this classic. My aunt has the compilation tape of said classic. Spent the ENTIRE B-day party for my cousin listenin' to that tape.
The polka remake, good fun.

Fun random question to ask your friends:
"Have you ever walked around your house butt nekkid because you thought no one else was home but than someone is and than you feel really akward?"
The number of "I feel ya" or lines along that you'll receive from people is pretty surprising.
It's the mental image that'll really get you though.

FOOD
Yup. Today's topic is food. Because we need to go grocery shopping an' bein' Reggie, I think 'bout food 24/7.

Funnel cake- Picked some up at the Del Mar Fair (it will ALWAYS be the Del Mar Fair to me) last week, been thinkin' 'bout it daily. Powdered sugar, whipped cream, an' strawberries. Nummy.
People (including myself) willing to drop $4+ on these tasty lil' suckers. I like to think because they put some kind of drug in it. How else would you explain my lil' obsession w/ it the past few days? The waking in cold sweats late at night, seein' it whereever I go, hearin' it in every single conversation I hold w/ people (mainly because I talk 'bout it first).

Churros- Mmm... churros. The low availability rate attributes to it's high demand on my behalf. Guess the cinnamon twists'll have to do as a cheap substitute.

Emeril- "BAM!" "Gotta pick it up a notch"

Good fun. Much like...

Iron Chef- "Kasui san!" Wish I could cook like that. Inspired me to try mixing things. Like: banana an' tomato sauce. Try it, it's pretty good.

Balut- Today's featured food in Fear Factor. Basically the Phillipines version of escargot i.e. delicacy that most people will never venture to try. Unborn duck inside an egg. That's balut. Imagine if people used that instead of the conventional egg when they egged your house. Personally, I think it's pretty good.

Guess that's it for now.
EVERY single conversation I've had on AIM tonight shifted to food somehow. Most of 'em decided to grab a snack. I'm deciding to follow the masses for now.

One last thing...
Hey YOU. My bad. Hand me a straw because I suck. I feel sad that I wasn't able to make it out tonight. Nothin' like wakin' up from a powernap to find your car "borrowed" to "go to the store." Hope your day went really well an' that you don't have a hangover when you wake up.

My apologies to anyone I've neglected over the past few week. I'm sorry, things have been pretty hectic for me an' when I receive downtime, I don't take full advantage of it.
One problem w/ knowing so many people is that I can't make time for all of 'em. I WILL get to you.

Please believe me.
Let me know ahead of time (at least 3 days) an' I'll clear my schedule for you.

For those of you that're interested, I'm startin' to become active in the realm of acting again.
Audtions, good fun.

So yea, browsin' online an' killin' time 'til I feel sleepy I ran across this site.
Seems interesting yea?
Quick money schemes that work around my schedule an' have a minimum workload always appeal to me.
But is it really worth the gamble? What do YOU think? Let me know.
Better yet, spend the $40 some-odd dollars they ask for an' let me know what their "guide" tells you.

Post w/ substance...?
Somewhere down the line.

This random post has been brought to YOU by YOU

Hey YOU!
Didn't know that YOU read this.
Do YOU find it entertaining?

Hey. How's life?
Do you think you have what it takes to be referred to as YOU?
If so, please direct all petitions, incquiries, and/or general concerns my way.
For the down times that frequent my summer vacation, I need things to keep me occupied.

Today's somewhat random post goes out to YOU , because you're super-cool like that.

The SD Reader, good fun.
Lots of interesting things from reviews, to personals, to audition info, to even job listings.
Pretty much spent the latter part of my evening browsing the help wanted section.
So many jobs... so many limitations.

Alot of 'em are interesting.
Like working at one of the many cemeteries in SD county. Or Sea World's call to arms for performers for their lil' Halloween thingy. Or becoming a probation officer. Than there's always telemarketing.
Lot of people think I'd do very well as a telemarketer. (Scented candles!!! =P) Can't figure out where I got my knack for making cash. I just remember always having "buisiness ventures" growing up. But, in a post that I'm tryin' to keep discussin' 'bout the same general thing, I'm side-tracking.

Advantage of bein' under the Cal Vet tuition fee waiver thingy: not havin' to pay tuition.
Disadvantage of bein' under the Cal Vet tuition fee waiver thingy: Having to watch how much $$$ I bring in yearly. If I make more than the poverty level (currently somewhere near 9k) than there's a strong chance that I won't get approved for a fee waiver the next academic year.

*Sigh*

I could be making so much cash though. Around $8 per hr. starting pay + commission. But that small possibility of not making bank (i.e. enough to cover tuition an' still enjoy life), always waver in the back of my head.
So for two years I've been tellin' myself that the job I'm lookin' for has hrs. an' above minimum wage.
Just realized how picky I am.
That theory was given to me by my big sis. It's a nice theory that actually applies itself well to me. In short, contrary to popular belief, I'm not THAT lazy.

I may not be employed next week, but there's a strong possibility that I'll be ending my 2-3 yr. acting hiatus by jumping back into the theatre.
I've really missed it. Performing was always a nice release for me, should help make my life better by gettin' involved again.

"The Complete Works of William Shakespeare [abridged]"

A very comical, lovely play that you should go see.
Like right now.
As in stop sittin' in front of your comp reading this post an' watch it be performed now. Or you can tell me to "break a leg", have the acting gods smile upon me, grant me a spot in it's production, than watch me opening night an' many performances afterwards.
2-3 yrs. Hope I don't have too much rust. Usually when I drop a hobby for an extended period of time, I completely forget how to do it. Playing piano and/or guitar are completely lost to me at the moment. So are my art skills by my standards.

Happy 4th of July everyone.
May your day be filled w/ good grub, good fun, good memories, an' good fireworks show(s).

For those that're interested: I was given a fairly belated B-day party in celebration of my accomplishment of turnin' a ripe twenty years of age. The way I see it. It was just an excuse to try out our new gas grill an' for everyone to meet Sandee.

"Where's your girlfriend? "
As opposed to "Happy Birthday!" when I greeted them.
Thinkin' most of them were just verifying that I actually DID have a girlfriend. Pretty sure it caught everyone off guard when they heard it from my mother when she invited everyone.
"He's not gay?! I mean... he has a girlfriend now? "

Good fun.

New personal tradition for Disneyland I started awhile back you can try if you ever go there:
EVERY SINGLE Churro stand you walk by go: "Mmmmm..... churro."
As a bonus, you can even go an' buy one to make me jealous of the fact that you get to consume one. Because churros taste great, an' I've been obsessin' over them because they aren't readily available for me. Those an' funnel cake.

Mmmmm.... funnel cake.

Lilo and Stitch bobblehead toys from McDonalds happy meals, good fun.
