Arabs have brought me back to Xanga: Our Trip to the Middle East, Part 1

As you know, Tae and I just visited Ramallah, Palestine and Jerusalem recently (he, for 3 weeks, and I, for 1 week).  Here we are, enjoying the local culture.

 
Just kidding--these were taken at a military museum in L.A....ha ha?



It was actually a very peaceful and beautiful trip.


  
The street our hotel was on...



Trust me, head scarves and all, in case you've ever doubted it, the people in the Middle East are way more like you and me than not.

 
Dora, Dora, Dora the Explora


For instance, who doesn't like fried chicken??
 
Here's Mel at a picnic in NYC with the remnants of her delicious fried chicken...


Well, apparently, everyone does...

 





And tell me this doesn't look almost exactly like the Chinatown in San Fran, Oahu, or NYC?

 
Dirty sidewalks, fresh produce, cheap prices...aah, just like Canal Street...




Gentle Man are everywhere!




Lovely views in Palestine...

  


Will I return?





NEVER say never...

L, J, and J Come to L.A.

Lana, Jelly, and Janet didn't know what to expect when they came to visit, but don't worry, I showed them L.A.'s finest.

First stop, pumpkin patch.

Pumpkin patches on the east coast consist of pumpkins, much like the ones below.

But Tae and I showed them what a REAL pumpkin patch looks like:

tiger eat yo face

Tigers


pp

jaws

Sharks


and...Historical Disasters?

They even had the iceberg!

jack and rose

But ultimately, this historical disaster balloon jumping house perhaps didn't impress the east coast folk so much. Maybe when we get a 9/11 balloon jumping house.

Next stop...military museum!

Helpful (and not so helpful) Products for these Trying Economic Times

As you may know, Tae calls me his Proverbs 31 woman because I know how to save money on beer, make my own cards, and spin flax.  I decided it's about time to share some of my knowledge with you.  I weigh in on several products out there on the market to assess their usefulness or worthlessness to you, the consumer.


Product 1: The Waist Extender



Cost: Under $10

Use: Moisten your garment's waistband, insert the extender and stretch up to 5."

My thoughts:  In this economy we can't afford to buy healthy foods nor can we buy new clothes. Problem solved, fatasses!



Product 2:  Hair Cutting Catcher



Cost: Under $10

Use: Cape resembles an inverted umbrella to catch clippings as you trim, so neck, clothes and floor are protected.

My thoughts:  It also serves as a cone to prevent yourself from licking your surgery wounds. $7.98 for all this? Not bad!



Product 3: Bathrooom Accessory Set



Cost: Under $10

Use: Bathroom accessory set offers a nostalgic touch!

My thoughts: Even though this set is 20% off, no one wants to get soap from a toilet. Trust me.



Product 3: Heated cat pillow


Cost: $12.98

Use: Put in microwave for a few minutes, place on tired muscles and relax away the pain.

My thoughts: Even though I would love to put a certain cat in the microwave (don't think I forgot you, Maleeka), it's kind of messed up. And there's that whole crazy cat lady thing.



Product 4:  Banana Saver Clip

    

Cost: Under $5

Use: It’s the perfect way to take a half banana to work or school or just to save it for later.  

My thoughts: Eat the whole banana you cheap anorexic!



Product 5: Hot Dog Toaster



Cost: $19.98

Use: Hot Dog Toaster is a real "wiener"! Why drag out the grill or boil pots of water when you can have hot, tasty frankfurters and buns in the time it takes to make toast?

My thoughts:  For $19.98 you can get like 20 hot dogs at Costco!  Mmmmm...Costco.



Product 6: Snuggle Fleece



Cost: 14.98

Use: Ultra-soft fleece blanket fits like a robe with oversized, loose fitting sleeves. Ideal for eating, reading, using the computer, playing games or curling up on a sofa or bed.

My thoughts: Also useful as birth control without the pesky health insurance paperwork!



Plenty more tips where these came from.  Just call me Suze.

Zonga is for Lovers

We went to a beautiful wedding this weekend and learned that the couple used Xanga (correct pronunciation Zonga, according to the slightly fobby pastor) as a major communication tool to get to know one another and begin their relationship. Now that makes at least 5 people who have used Xanga to find true love.

1. Tae and me- Xanga war. A series of emails. Married almost 2 years.

2. Donald and Jennifer- Clearly copied us, but still pioneers. Married almost a year?

3. Gene and Mina- Re-connected through Xanga. Married 3+ months.

4. Serge and Mihee- Met at football. Used xanga to find out about each others' "missions trips." Fell in love. Married 2+ days.

5. Janice's sister. I don't know her or her story, but I know Janice. And she doesn't lie.

 

Now, don't you want to start posting again, people?
