An Oma quote...

It's been quite some time since Oma said something that just makes me shake my head... Actually it hasn't been awhile, I just keep forgetting what she said.

I suck.

Anyways...

The Oma Quote:

For a Jewish woman, she really likes baseball.

Referring to my uncle's best friend taking his mom to the White Sox (VOMIT) home opener, with seats behind home plate, and they were seen on TV.

Apparently if you are Jewish you aren't supposed to like baseball, let alone a Jewish woman.

Leggo my eggs (no "o")

Last Friday for the Easter festivities, at my parents request because they went to Vegas to see Donny and Marie (insert vomit here), they asked if I would do the eggs for them. Dad was all excited because he got GLITTER EGGS!!!! The glitter.....it was a pain in the ass and the glue took of the dye.

Meanie was my accomplice in the egg endeavor.

Here's they dying mess....

It took forever to make 18 eggs. We started at 10pm and was done by 1am.

GJ that was going to be attending the Easter dinner, so I made a Passover Egg for him. Complete with sparkly yarmulke!!


A Pirate!!! ARGH!!!!!


An Alien.



Buck, buck, a turquoise chicken. How funky is your chicken???




A bad attempt at Mr. Potato Head.



Oink Oink!!!


ROARRRRR!!!!!


Easter Bunny, in orange. He was yellow, but he was glittered, and the yellow faded, unfortunately yellow gave way to a new color and he became orange.


This bad boy, was the cause of many laughs. I was crying, Meanie almost peed herself. It was also late. The Screamer...or Macaulay Culkin ala Home Alone. The hands did us in.


Just a face...no special name.


JESUS!!!!!!! I was concerned about getting the Oma made with this one, but she said it was nice. And then after the Easter festivities, she wanted to take an egg home to eat. I told her to eat Jesus, it will be like communion.


And how could I, with the sparkly kit, not make an Edward???? I know he's not supposed to have fangs...but at least this way people would know what he is!! A SPARKLY VAMPIRE!!!!


Isn't he cute??


I love him!!!


He also made a really good egg salad too!!
Rock out, with bad ass eggs.

The first obsession.

As I had mentioned in the previous post, on the 20th a group of us (Meanie, CwJ, another coworker, and myself) went to Captian Quirk's for a NEW MOON MOVIE PARTY!!!!!!!

(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Captian Quirk just moved to a new place that boasts a mini-movie theater, so it would be the perfect spot for viewing NEW MOON (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!). When plans were being made, I though to myself that it was just going to be a room with a big projection screen, nothing all that great. And boy was I wrong!!! It's actually like a mini-movie theater, with stadium style seats, holds probably 30ish peeps, suround sound....all that was missing was the concession stands, but we brought our own food, which was much better then the crap at a real theater.

When I walked into the theater, there were movie posters all over the walls...and what do I see behind the popcorn machine??? No- not Twilight.....But GREASE!!! I needed a picture!! I moved the popcorn machine, grabbed a chair from the other room hopped up and had my picture taken with Danny Zuko....sigh.....



How I used to wish I was Stephanie Zanoni and I would marry Danny Zuko, and he needed to have a motorcycle to seal the deal.

Movie night was fun, but since Edward wasn't predominant in the New Moon, I found my eyes casually diverting over to the Grease poster.

After the movie we retreated back to Captain Quirks for dessert and some good laughs. A large source of laughter was the housewarming gift I got him. I giant rooster pitcher and a giant book of cocktails. Giant cock and cocktails!! It's a theme!! However some of the recipes in this book were horrendous. Prime example The Prairie Oyster. I can't imagine actually consuming this concoction without throwing up.

Rock out, with Zuko and a giant cock!
