beauts' poker face.

Bea Arthur, another hero of mine gone.

today one of the most influential women in my life has passed. Bea Arthur died today due to cancer and I couldn't be more upset about this loss. Bea Arthur was one of those women that people either misunderstood or someone that they completely loved. For me at least I absolutely loved and idolized her. She was the epitome of everything I loved about strong women. She will forever be someone I look up to and aspire to be. I love you Bea!

new phots.

the latest shoot is up on royale's myspace page but here are a couple of photos from last week. all of these were taken on a rooftop in downtown la. photos by sean stiegemeier makeup by me.

only the best lyrics will do

While watching yet another shark movie tonight the films ending credits were really not to be missed...that is due strongly to the fact that LL Cool J really has a way with words. See below:

"Deepest Bluest (Shark's Fin)" -LL Cool J

Uh, my hat is like a shark's fin

[1] - Deepest, bluest, my hat is like a shark's fin

[Repeat 1 (5x)]

Manmade terror
Hungry jaws of death
Y'all don't cross my depths
I'll pause your breaths
I cause you to sink down forty thousand leagues
Bleeding to death with no arms and short sleeves
My world's deep blue
Killers gotta eat too
Looking for human flesh to rip my teeth through
Other fish in the sea but Barracudas ain't equal
To a half human predator created by a needle
Jet black eyes baby they stare while you sleep
When your Titanic sinks I'm the one you gon' meet
Hearing terrified screams they surround my team
All you see is trails of blood
Even God won't intervene
Nightmares of darkness
My apetite is heartless
Even if we related, you eliminated regardless
In the deep blue, underwater walls
Half man, half shark
My jaws don't fall

[Repeat 1 (8x)]

Our Father who art in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Killers sworn to beast
Swallowed them in flames
They switched my DNA
Trip me into Cool J
I can't fight the feeling
I'm born to kill prey
To survive an attack
There's only one way
Battle to the death
That's how sharks play
Weapons left behind
We dueling with the mind
You blind, crippled, or crazy
You're real easy to find
Struggling to flow with hemorrhages in your throat
Getting the lap dance while I smash through your boat
Eat your whole fam
Nothing left but a right hand
Clinging to a rail
Escape, attempts fail
You'll never make it home
Tear the flesh off your bone
Walking in undercurrents is a dangerous zone
I'm talking death out a moment's notice
You wasn't focused
Me and my crew strike
Like some underwater locusts

[Repeat 1 (8x)]

Uh, uh take it deeper
Uh, uh take it deeper
Uh, uh take it deeper
Uh, uh take it deeper

These waters are waist level
The hallway's flooded
Lost your scuba gear
The killer's cold-blooded
His name's LL
You don't really want it
I ate your ancestors
The ocean is haunted
I'm closing in cause I'm supposed to win
How the cold steel feel when it froze your chin
Should of stayed on dry land
Stroke while you can
Cause now you under pressure in the land of the damned
Abandoned pirate ships
Eels and sod scum
Fish that glow in the dark
The Titanic's hub
Underwater storms
You're blood is so warm
You're life vest is off
And that turns me on
Killer for centuries
The Gotti of the deep
In the next millennium
I'm still gonna creep
Sand under my belly, ocean over my head
Through the light in the shadows
You become the living dead


yes, it's true. I couldn't even believe it myself. Davey and I are still laughing about the line "Getting the lap dance while I smash through your boat Eat your whole fam Nothing left but a right hand"

never too old...

perusing through google often produces a detrimental truth that one day i will have to face.

how old is too old for hello kitty?

i for one don't see that day coming anytime soon, and i fear that my desire for her has remained throughout the vast majority of my life.

when i was a child my parents would give me a $100 dollar bill to spend at the sanrio store. it wasn't always hello kitty that i loved i had a few favorites that i frequently liked to grace my three ring binders and plastic pencil cases:

1. little twin stars
2. kero-kero-keroppi
3. pippo
4. my melody

i wonder when the attachment will end, when will i be able to place my car keys on the key rack without having a giant fluffy cat face to identify my keys from the otherwise boring and dull counterparts?

birthday cake remix

ahhh the wonders of birthday cake flavored ice cream! i have been eating birthday cake remix for years ever since my best friend took me to a coldstone back in 2003 to show me her favorite mix. i have tried to get as many people into it as possible throughout the years and have only managed to turn a few people to this delicious treat! i haven't had it for a while but tonight the mood striked and i am pleased to announce that the ice cream never gets old! i feel like a kid every time i take my first bite!

i'm a dumbass.

more self inflicted injuries a-comin' your way....this time i ran into a table!
