Destiny Fulfilled!

How do they do it? I mean sell albums with lyrics like this?
Lyrics to Lose My Breath:
Can you keep up?
Baby boy
Make me lose my breath
Bring the noise
Make me lose my breath
Hit me hard
Make me lose my ahhh ahhh

There new song Soldier - I just don't know:
I need a soldier
That ain't scared to stand up for me
Normally carry big things
If you know what I mean
If his status ain't hood
I ain't checkin' for him
Better be street if he looking at me
I need a soldier

Am I missing something? How do they do it??!!

Drugs are bad...Mmm Kay

C is studying for his Clinical Pharmacology test right now. He is learning about all the drugs he will one day get to prescribe to all y'all. In about three months he will be able to write any prescription for any drug imaginable. Dr.'s notes included. Eric V has already requested his note for Fibromyalgia. What fake disease would you like a note for - Make your best offer - I will put forth the requests.

Sean Penn = Giant Douche?

Question? When did Sean Penn become such a douchebag? I don't think he knows how to take a joke. I watched the Academy Awards last night to see Chris Rock's opening bit (which was awesome by the way). Chris Rock made some jokes at Jude Law's expense and apparently Sean Penn felt hurt by those jokes or something becuase he had to address it much later on in the show when he was on stage to present an award. Puh-lease. It was a joke. A funny one too I might add. He also had a run in with South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone over this past years election. Yes, Sean your famous and yes, you have a crap load of money and yes you usually make good movies - but seriously get a life.

It's no Shrek

Dreamworks after the success of Shrek - came out with A Shark's Tale. I thought it was cute but definitly no Shrek. I was able to rent it for free so I don't feel cheated. I would have been extremly disapointed had I gone to the theater.

I HATE Huckabees

I don't know - it was weird. I think I feel asleep. I didn't get it. It was bad. I just didn't feel it. Personally I wouldn't waste your time. I really hate it when I get sucked into movies becuase of the cast. Yet I do it all the time and usually I am disappointed. Some examples:



(1) About Schmidt - Jack Nicholson, Kathie Bates

(2) Adaptation - Nicholas Cage

(3) Magnolia - Tom Cruise, Julianne Moore, William H. Macy

(4) The Royal Tenenbaums - Gene Hackman, Gwenyth Paltrow, Ben Stiller, Anjelica Houston

Am I missing any?

Feeling down today - C watches TV

I am very bored...I have nothing to post...C is watching Glory and we are waiting to go to my nephew's 5th birthday party. Wow he will be 5 on tuesday March 1st. I can't believe it. I am hungry too. I hope the pizza is good. I hope to have some good pictures. I guess we are going now - need to buy a present. Catch you on the flip side.

The wait is killing me:

So the rank list was due on Wednesday at 9:00pm. So why do we have to wait 19 more days to find out. I am not going to be able to take much more of this. Waiting, waiting, waiting...

Where will we be in four months...?

My Personal Hell

I started to do some thinking as of late about what it will be like when I do go to hell. Below are some of the things you would find in my hell.

(1) A 60" Plasma screen TV that shows nothing but Fox News for eternity. It would be Hannity and Colmes and Bill O'Riley forever and ever and ever and ever

(2) The only movies would be The Thin Red Line, The Apostle, French Kiss, The Astronauts Wife and any movie on Lifetime for Women.

(3) The "Voice" of Terrier Hockey would sing the National Anthem over and over until I wanted to stick screw driver through my ear drums except there are no screw drivers.

(4) John Madden, Joe Buck and Dick Vitale would be my neighbors so I would hear "Yeah Baby", "Derek Jeter is God" and "The key to winning this game is to score more points than the other team"

(5) The Devil would be George W. Bush. No explanation needed!

This is what hell is. What are some things you think will be in hell?

Pee in the Snow!

So it is early in the morning. I woke up way before my alarm and thought I would make some early morning posts:

Here is an interesting link if your really bored: http://pi.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/snow.html

The Doc and the Lawyer

So I posted this on I.A.'s blog today and it seemed to amuse him so I thought I would go ahead and post it here: Enjoy!


A doctor and a lawyer in two separate cars collided on a country road. The lawyer, seeing that the doctor was a little shaken up, helped him from the car and offered him a drink from his hip flask.
The doctor accepted and handed the flask back to the lawyer, who closed it and put it away.
"Aren't you goign to have a drink yourself?" asked the Doctor.
"Sure, right after the police leave," replied the attorney.

The Legend Continues some more:

I know I left you hanging for a while - thirsty for more knowledge about me. Well you can stop crying becasue the ledgend goes on:

My favorite Show is: Scrubs (I would marry Zach Braff if I were not already married and he wasn't dating Mandy Moore - oh she is so lucky!)

My secret dream is to someday sing the National Anthem at Fenway Park

I am a sports nut - well Football and Baseball mostly (and mostly football). Sometimes C thinks I am a little too fanatic about my football but then I polietly remind him that other wives wouldn't spend all day watching football - they'd be watching Trash for Women. Yes Sunday in the Wicks household means FOOTBALL!!! All day long! I am already going through withdrawals.

I have two cats - they are brothers and C and I named them Trot (after Red Sox outfielder Trot Nixon) and Drew (after ex-Patriot - soon to be Dallas QB Drew Bledsoe). They are probably the dumbest cats I have ever known but they are so cute you can't help but love them.

This blog has pretty much saved my life - My brain was quickly turning into mush due to extreme boredom. I know I am not nearly as funny as I.A. is but I try real hard and shouldn't that count for something - so even if you don't think I am funny - laugh anyway - it will make me feel good!

In Jesus Name I Pray

The Rapture: When all the believers in Jesus Christ, who have been born again, are taken up to heaven.

So when this happens how will us "non-believers" know where everyone went. The answer is in this website:

http://www.raptureletters.com/index.html

Thank goodness for this website because I wasn't sure how I was going to let everyone know that the reason I vanished was because I went to Heaven. Oh yeah right...I am pretty sure I have a first to class ticket to Hell. However, for those of you who are 'better' than rest of us and plan on 'vanishing' please make sure you fill out one of these letters so I know where you are.

Poor Paris

So someone was able to hack into Paris Hilton's T-Mobile phone and get all her personal information. I would love that number so I can call her and tell her how sad her life is. I can't believe people actually watch her show. I watch a lot of FOX programs so I am subjected to commercials that feature her new show The Simple Life: Interns. It is sad commentary on the state of our country that we put two girls on a pedestal that have no skills, that are totally incompetent at everything they do and the only reason that natural selection hasn't gotten them is their Daddy's are rich.

I promise you won't be sorry - make sure you have speakers on. This link has become a hit over the past week. It was on the GMA the other day. If you have any insight I would love to hear it.

I came across this actual clip from a random blog I happend upon. He he he!

Dick Vitale

Has to be one of the most annoying sports announcers in the history of sports announcers. I don't even like basketball all that much but C likes to watch college hoops once in a while and that leaves me stuck listening to Dick Vitale. I don't know if it is the voice or what but shoot me, just shoot me. Sensational BABY!

Question - Who is more annoying?

• Dick Vitale
• John Madden

Daytona....Daytona!

Remember that game? I think it was a game for the Sega Genesis but I don't know and C thinks I am wrong? Anyway...not the point of this posting.

NASCAR. I don't think I will ever understand the obsession that is NASCAR. If you live in the woods like me, everyone is obsessed with it. They have parties and get togethers and discuss it at work like the rest of us real people talk about the Sox or the Patriots. And everyone is a Dale Jr. fan # - hmmmm I don't really care enough to look up his # so we'll just call him #10. Everyone wears Dale, Jr. #10 hats, bumper stickers with #10 you know what I mean. I see this #10 everywhere up here.

I don't get it. I really don't get it. This phenomenon is just...I don't know. Get me out of this NASCAR - BUSH LOVIN' HELL HOLE THEY CALL THE UPPER VALLEY!!!

Please if someone can explain it to me....but I mean watching cars go round and round for like three hours....

I love food....I can't help it.

C went skiing today and I sat at home watching the documentry Super Size Me. Made me feel even more like a heffer than I already do. I don't know - I like food. I hardly ever eat fast food, but I do like to eat and I do not usually control my portion sizes like I should. I don't excersize like I used to and I can't wait to move back to the city so I can walk more. The doctor told me my BMI is too high....what is a girl to do. If this documentry taught me anything it's don't drink your calories (which I don't cuz all yall know I drink only Diet Pepsi) and portion size. Less is more. I will let you know how I do. Really my problem stems from my laziness and lack of motivation when I come home to cook real food. C and I order out way too much. Bye Bye Ramunto's Garlic Knot Pizza - the doctor says I'm too fat.

A Movie Review of:

Paparazzi a not so great movie...so why did I bother to rent it? Well I had a coupon where I could rent three movies for .99 cents a piece. I figured for a buck I would give it a shot. The moral of the story is: You can get away with murder just so long as your famous and your killing scumbags who take your picture when you asked them very politely not to. My review in three words or less: DON'T BOTHER.

Low Rider

When most people think Low Rider they think of that song by War. However, when I think of Low Rider I think of the stupid chair that C refuses to get rid of. I am not sure the picture does it justice but let me explain. C named this chiar the low rider when the base broke off. Normal people would put the chair in the dumpster...but not my C. He won't. I don't get it. It isn't comfortable to sit in and it is just taking up space. I HATE the Low Rider!

Cumming all Over

I think that this picture speaks for itself. C and I were watching the daily show and actor Alan Cumming was the guest. You may recognize him from his roles as Sandy Finks in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion, Nightcrawler in X2: X-Men Unite, and his latest role as Locke in Son of the Mask. Well he has decided to come out with a fragrance I mean hey it worked for J-Lo right. Well Jon Stewart couldn't get past the name and had to ask why. He said it was his revenge. I have to say we laughed the hardest when he discused the future line of body wash "Cumming all Over". I kid you not, click on the picture for more information!

My Friends Went to Iraq to find WMD's and...

All they found was this lousy T-shirt. Hehehehe! I found this pretty cool website by accident. You can by humorous t-shirts and bumpers stickers as seen here. They have other things too like mugs and magnets. Check it out.

Desperate Housewives

So in my previous post I commented on the fact tha GMA has become the 'Ode to Desperate Housewives'. So ABC finally gets a hit show and what do they do...exploit it and milk it for all it is worth. I have never watched the show but know everything about it because every day on GMA there is a story on the actresses or the plot or someone died on the last episode...WTF??!! I am just so sick to death of hearing about it that it makes me not want to watch ever. I am sure it is a good show but come on...

Not just bred for it's skills in magic...

It is REAL!!! No joke. I was watching Good Morning America (AKA Ode to Desperate Housewives - another subject for another time) this morning and they brought on a LIGER. And all this time I thought it was like a magical creature. I had to leave for work so I didn't actually see this Liger perform any skills. Maybe someday I could pet a Liger. It's pretty much my favorite animal.

Step-II

Today C is in Burlington, VT taking Step-II of the Medical Boards. Send him a happy thought. Thankfully it is not as intense as Step-I. Good Luck!!!

Manamana!

A commercial for the new Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper had me thinking of a good friend. Stack used to go around 500 Park Drive singing this song....I wish I could write it out here but the ba ba ba da's wouldn't make sense unless you knew the tune. MA-NA-MA-NA! If you have seen the commercial you know the song. It has a guy and a girl on a dinner date and the waiter brings here a new Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper and she spaces out and hears this song I know speak of.

The Legend Continues:

Ah yes, I shall continue the legend that is ME! Below are five interesting facts about me.

(1) My favorite color is Yellow

(2) If I could eat only one thing for the rest of my life it would be Ramunto's Garlic Knot Pizza. It will be one of the few things I will miss about the Upper Valley.

(3) I have over the recent months become a big fan of Indian and Mexican foods.

(4) I am 25 years old and have three gray hairs. I fear that if I pull them out three more will grow back.

(5) I love to sing. I love to sing in the shower, in the car, at the dinner table, before I go to sleep, all of the time.

So there you have it, some interesting facts about me. Don't you just feel better now for knowing that! Feel free to tell me about yourself in the comment section...it will give me something to read!

The Punisher

So since I am so good at the comic book thing, C and I rented The Punisher. I thought the movie was pretty good. I do think it is a little weird that Marvel made a comic book with a hero who has no super powers. I wonder how well the comic did in comparison to say Superman or Batman.

Thoughts?

Victory is Mine!

Freshman Chris Bourque scored with 5:50 remaining in the first overtime to lift Boston University to a 3-2 win against Northeastern in the championship game of the 53rd Annual Beanpot Tournament on Monday.
Well it turned out to be on exciting game going into OT. I didn't actually see them tie it up but I hear from C that it was ugly. I did see the final goal...man what a shot. Go BU!

Another random Lyric

Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,

Old Navy & the Beanpot!

I am sitting here watching the greatest college hockey team fight for the beanpot and buying clothes on oldnavy.com! Go BU. They are up 2-0 and they look good now. They looked terrible in the first 10 minutes of the first period. Kick some Husky Ass!

A Clean Smile!

Today I went to the dentist and check out my pearly whites! I also had some gum tissue removed and now the numbness is going away and I am starting to feel the pain...OUCH!

I had the cake and ate it too!

So saw the finished product, and I should clarify that the picture below is not the actual cake but a pretty picture to make my post look more exciting. I should have a picture of the actual cake soon. Sorry for any confusion.

The cake was delicious. It was a lemon cake with a pistachio crunch frosting. Yummy! You done good Benny, really good!

On a lighter note

Today I spent three hours helping Benny bake a cake for his sweetheart. Her birhtday is tomorrow and this is the mother of all birthday cakes. Even though he got some help on this cake from C and I - he still spent a great deal of time on this...I don't even get a store bought cake from C. Tomorrow we shall see the finished product. Yummy. Here is to a very happy birthday Robyn!

Princess Sophia gets Political

Forgive me for a minute but I need to get something off my chest. This is something that has been frustrating me for a long time. When did the church become a cult of crazy people. I grew up a Catholic (although I am very much so NON-practicing) and went to church every sunday with my dad. I don't remember it being as bad as it seems now. Althought there was this one time when I freaked out my CCD teacher when I told her that abortion wasn't murder. It was as if I took out a gun and opened fire.

Why are you Jesus Freaks so crazy and intollerant of other people. Why do you all have the right to tell women what they can and cannot do with their bodies. Why do you all have the right to tell two people that they can't have the same rights that I have with my husband just because they're partner is of the same sex. I guess I didn't realize that they were mutants or somehow not human. It seems that these days if you have not accepted Christ Jesus into your heart that somehow you're immoral. As Benny and I discussed this afternoon...what happened to Love thy neighbor?

Anyway....C is getting tired of listening to my rants on religion so I am using my blog to vent my frustrations...please disgreagard this post if you do not care.

Random Lyric

Drink up baby down,
Mmmm, are you in or are you out
Leave your things behind -
cuz it's all going off without you...
excuse me, too busy, your writing your tragedy
these mishaps
you bubble wrap
you have no idea what your like....



Lyrics from the song: Let Go by Frou Frou

It's like wearing nothing at all...

So today I would like to endorse Victoria's Secret Pink Mesh Underwear. It is pretty much the BEST underwear on the face of this earth. Everyone who does not own a pair should drop everything they are doing right now and click on the link (http://www.victoriassecret.com) and buy some. Do it right NOW!! You won't regret it. And if your a guy...click on the link anyway -you know you want to.

A Great Movie OST

The Garden State OST is currently in my CD player at the moment. It arrived the other day via Amazon.com and I have to say it is a great movie soundtrack. Zach Braff did an amazing job putting together a soundtrack for his movie. I give it an A+. Click the link for a Song List.

So what is in your CD Player right now?

And the Winner is...Wales...Oh Shit!

"A Welsh rugby fan cut off his own testicles to celebrate Wales beating England at rugby, the Daily Mirror reported on Tuesday."
What some people will do for the love of the game. Some dude was apparently so convinced that England would win he said he would cut off his own testicles...I mean a lot of guys say that they would give their left nut for a victory but this guy actually followed through.

Yes you read that correctly - the dude cut off his testicles. Oh for the love of the game.

Go Get 'em Tiger...

So C and I just finished watching the second Spider Man for the first time since we saw it in the theater. I forgot how cheesy the ending was. "Go get 'em tiger" are you kidding me.
Don't get me wrong it is a fantastically done movie. It has some of the coolest special effects and I can even forgive the sappy inner dialogues but when MJ tells Peter to "Go get 'em tiger" at the end it just kills it for me. I wonder is it just me?

BC SUCKS!

Boston Univestity 2
Boston College 1

Go BU! To the left is forward John Laliberte who scored both goals in the game. I fell asleep at the end of the second by woke up to see the last three minutes of victory! What a game! I was most impressed by all the penelty calls. Bring it on Northeastern! The Beanpot is coming back to BU where it belongs!

F*ck 'em up, F*ck 'em up BC SUCKS!

Tonight is the Beanpot semifinal game. It started late because Northeastern and Harvard went into double overtime. Let's Go Terriers! So I am happy because now I get to watch it! Let's Go BU!

COKE OR PEPSI?

Anyone who knows me knows about my obsession with Diet Pepsi and those of you who know I.A. know of his obsession with Coke. Which one are you?

Commercial Disaster

Was it just me or were this years Superbowl commericals really LAME?
There were maybe two commercials the whole night that made me laugh out loud.

(1) The Ameriquest Commerical with the boyfriend cooking dinner and the cat spilling the sauce - girlfriend enters to boyfriend holding cat with a knife in his hand. Moral of the story - Don't judge too quickly.
(2) The Careerbuilder.com commericals were also good especially the one with the whoopi cushion and all the monkey's laughing.

And oh my god - What happened to Budweiser??!! They're supposed to be the king of beers - they used to make good commercials - what's the deal with all the serious crap. Anheuser-Busch you get the award for lamest commercials of all time. Even the quasi-funny Bud-light commercials can't make up for it. Sorry you lose.

What? C Lost his Wedding Ring in the Snow You Say?

Yes that's right my C LOST his wedding ring in the snow today while playing snow football....

hmmmmmm. Does that mean I can get a new ring too and we can have a whole new wedding??!! Excellent!

The Legend of Princess Sophia

Well I suppose now is a good a time as any to begin the story behind the LEGEND of Me!

First off I should probably explain Princess Sophia. I mean why call myself Princess Sophia when my real name is Pam? That is a good questions - and I hope you all realize (beisdes the fact that I named my blog 'legend of me') I am not that conceited to make people refer to me as Princess Sophia...although I probably should. I also did not come up with the name myself. That was given to me by my sister. She called herself Cinderella (apparently she felt that whenever I visited home - mom had her do chores and such to make sure the place was nice and clean upon my arrival) and I was the Princess. Where Sophia came from I will never know. Thus the name Princess Sophia.

The Legend continues...

Enjoy a Bowl of Chicken Soup with a Ruben...

What are some of your favorite lines from a silly movie? Below are some of mine:

Harold and Kumar go to White Castle
Harold: Did Doogie Howser just steal my f*cking car?
Kumar: Yes... I think he did.
Harold: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Napoleon Dynamite
Napoleon Dynamite: You know, there's like a butt-load of gangs at this school. This one gang kept wanting me to join because I'm pretty good with a bowstaff.

Half Baked
Scarface: F*ck you, f*ck you, f*ck you, you're cool, and f*ck you, I'm out!

I'm Wicked Smaht!

I did it! I'm wicked smaht! Check out my new features!

The legend continues....

It just doesn't get old!

C and I watched game 4 of the ALCS last night (they are showing the series on NECN) and even though we know what happens, it still makes us smile. We just look at each other and smile! We smile when Jeter strikes out and when Dave Roberts steels second base so Billy Mueller can hit him home to tie up the game. Even though we know they will go on to win the game in the 12th inning...I can watch that home run by Big Papi over and over again! Still smiling every time! I wonder why that is? Is it the same for anyone whose team wins the big one? Or is it because I waited 25 years for it to happen (I know it was a lot longer for other people)? Thank God I am too young to remember the pain of 1986.

A Little Light Humor!

The second installment from my NURSES calendar from work: Paraphrased

A husband and wife go to the doctor's office. They are there for the wife to get checked out. After the doctor finished his examination the couple remained in the office. A nurse went in to see what was the matter and noticed the husband's confused look.

"What's wrong?" asked the nurse.
"Well, I don't think the doctor know's what he's talking about," the husband said.
"Oh really?" replied the nurse
"Yeah, he said my wife as acute angina. And I've seen it!"


Get it, 'acute angina'...HAHAHAHAHAHA...HEHEHEHEHEHEHE!!!! That is a knee slapper...that is some funny stuff in my nurses calendar.

The "I am not sure" Movie Review

I have not really put any movie reviews on this blog other than to tell you how much I loved Napoleon Dynamite. So with out furthur ado here is the first installment of movie reviews. This one is the "I am not sure what I think" Movie review of LOST IN TRANSLATION a Sophia Coppola film, nominated for many academy awards last March.

This film takes place in Japan and stars Bill Murray as a washed up actor from the US who is a big star in Japan (kinda like today's version of David Hasselhoff and Germany). He has been hired to endorse a Japanese Whiskey and seems to be having a mid-life crisis (same old stuff - married with children - but lacking in love). Enter Scarlet Johansson's character, a young newlywed who is spending time in Japan while her work-aholic photographer husband (played by Frank, Jr. aka Giovanni Ribisi) is taking pictures of some band. The plot of the movie in a nutshell is these two characters meet in a bar by chance and form some sort of warped friendship/I couldn't tell if it was to be more sort of relationship. The movie ends when he has to go back home to the states to be with his family and how sad they both are that this 'chance encounter' has to come to an end. But they both know deep down that the one week they spent together will have a lasting impact.

So why am I not sure about this movie, well for one thing I didn't laugh like the critics told me I would. Here's the thing, I didn't hate it but I am not sure if I really liked it either. I just don't know. I sometimes get that feeling when watching these so called critically acclaimed 'artsy' fims. Does that make sense? I am curious if anyone out there has seen this film and would like to enlighten me, and if you havn't seen it then I'm not sure that I would recommend you do. I suppose if your in the mood for an artsy film it would be a good one. I don't know maybe I just didn't get it.

A 'Very Special' Blog Posting...

Why is it that every time sweeps comes along we get "A very special all new episode of ---fill in the blank----" or "An all new exicting intense ---- fill in the blank----" Is that supposed to make us want to watch the shows more?!

Each week I watch the Apprentice and each week they show scenes from next weeks episode and each week I hear "and you WON'T believe what goes on in the board room". That's what you told me last week. I thought I already saw the most intense boardroom...how can this week be the most intense??!!
