go jesus! it’s your resurection!

im kind of obsessed with my stupid march madness bracket, so when i went out last night, i kept explaining to all the boys i met that i had picked wisconsin to go all the way and that i was pretty sure i was going to win.

and then one boy was like “why did you pick wisconsin?”

i was all “because i LIVE there”

and he was all “oh. ok. i love brett farve”

and then we went to dance and he was trying to be clever and shouted “CHESSE-HEADS!” while raising his hands in the air.

but i thought he said “JES-US!” (it IS easter) and the tootsie-roll remix in the background made it hard to hear him.

and then my bff (who was dancing nearby with a boy who had a super cool iphone) was all “he said cheeseheads!” and i was all “oh! i thought he said jesus!”

so she was all “she thought you said JES-US” to the boy.

and he said “i did! i said cheese-heads” (clearly he couldn’t hear over the tootsie roll remix either).

and then my bff said “NO! JES-US!” and she did the crucifix in exaggerated motion to explain.

and then the boy said “OH! GO JESUS! EA-STER!” and he waved his hands in the air like he just didn’t care.

im thinking the whole thing makes up for the fact that i didn’t go to church today.

if it were obvious, everyone would win

back in the day (like two years ago) i entered a march madness bracket pool with my fellow co-workers. i made my team choices the way everyone does — based on places i either have been to or plan to visit.

i did awesome. (second place out of like 40 employees (true story)). some of the boys in that bracket pool still won’t talk to me. whatever. they have cooties anyways.

ahh! but THIS is a new year! and i entered another bracket. THIS time i made my choices* with a more educated approach. i picked teams based on which school names i liked the best. don’t WORRY , i wasn’t completely stupid about the whole thing — i picked a no. three seed to go all the way. go WISCONSIN!

im pretty confident i’ll be winning. i mean even though my online-bracket thingy told me only 1.8 percent of people chose wisconsin to go all the way, i have good feeling about the beagles. (kid-ding.) badgers. (right?). i think they have what it takes.

so, ya, when you see wisconsin win it all, now you know who to congratulate. 

*editor’s note: i tried to link to my choices above, but im not sure if it will work. so, um, good luck with that.

vegan bliss

im so happy. not only is the weather above freezing, but i found a whole foods. which is kind of like mecca for vegans (even though they have that pesky organic meat aisle).

while there i got vegan chocolate chip cookies. DID YOU HEAR ME? VEGAN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES! i teared up when i ate one (true story) because it has been SO long since i’ve had a decent cookie. YES, they were like $22 (ish) for about four cookies. but i don’t even care. i mean my electric bill isn’t THAT important. right?

ALSO, i found some vegan Parmesan substitute stuff. although i haven’t tired it yet, i have high hopes!

but WAIT! there’s MORE! i also found a box of vegan macaroni and cheese!! could life GET any better? i think not.

and for those keeping track, yes it’s been FOUR weeks since i became a vegan. go me.
