the lowdown

21. Midwest. Freelance internet marketer. In a relationship. Spiritual relationship with Christ ? Loves lip gloss, lattes, social media, sushi, shopping, health & fitness, etc. Summer baby.

politics

I'm an INFP liberal conservative. What does that mean, really? I make decisions based on intuition and my personal convictions. I have right wing values but believe in people's right to privacy. I hate how rampantly pharmaceutical drugs are dispensed but that a most naturally therapeutic green plant is both illegal and criminalized. I dislike politics and hate how people feel the need to take sides. I choose NOT to vote if I do NOT agree with either candidate's values, and hate when people who are uninformed are encouraged to vote for the simple sake of taking a side. I'm proud to be an American but I do not believe in war as a first resort. Also, I believe that we are not hated because we are free - we are hated because of our greed and inappreciation of our freedom.

religion

My life is guided by Christian faith. I am open to sharing my beliefs with others but do not have a "preachy" nor judgemental approach. Rather, I believe in demonstrating my values by the way I conduct myself in social situations. I truly believe in grace. I make poor choices at times. We're human, and nothing more is expected of us than to acknowledge our good conscience and the rest will follow. That is what I believe.

MEME: 10 Things About Me

By marsadie · November 29, 2008 · 4 Comments · 22 Views

1. I have long, size 10 feet.

2. I have a color fetish.

3. I'm OCD about numbers, based on contextual structure. I follow people on Twitter in multiples of six. I upload Flickr photos in multiples of two. I size CSS element and photo pixels in multiples of two or five. Odd numbers (in pixels) drive me nuts!

4. I never, ever forget someone's face. If I have seen someone before, I instantly recognize them, regardless of whether I remember their name, or the last time I saw them, or if they have changed their hairstyle/appearance in any way.

5. When I'm not on prescription benzos, my facial expressions -- especially when I'm infuriated or bored -- tell all. My expression cannot hide how I feel inside!

6. I was the geek with taped glasses, highwaters, and unruly hair that no one liked in middle school. By senior year, I was hated for the exact opposite reason.

7. I've been doing this web thing since I was 11. Never knew that it would end up paying the bills.

8. I play dumb sometimes to see how naive people think I am. I can usually tell when someone is using me or associating with me solely for personal gain. I'll play along if I think I can teach that person a lesson in the end.

9. I'd do almost anything to be back in coastal Los Angeles in the near future. I had never felt happier than I was when I was there. Not for the people (some of them are awful)... But for the scenery, the lax attitude there, everything. I can't explain how or why I felt at incredible peace in LA.

10. Money and material things are not, nor will they ever be, my everything.

I Don't Want Your Man, Cause I Got It Like That

By marsadie · November 29, 2008 · 6 Comments · 20 Views

"But it ain't even gotta be like that..."

I don't know what it is about my chemistry with girls. I like most girls, I really do, but some get it in their minds that I'm stuck up and that I automatically can't get down with them before they even give me a chance. IDK. Anyway, the other night me & my girl Steph went out to the bar and she brought a friend (who I'd met before) and we met with said girl's boyfriend and some other dudes. I so didn't expect a sausage fest, especially since Trent wasn't with me and one of these grody dudes was trying to hit on me (Guy: You're cute! Me: Thanks... Steph: Um yeah, she's TAKEN.) LOL I love my girls. Anyway I drank a wee bit much (let's see... 12oz of sake, three martinis, & some Japanese beer) and before I knew it, I was toasted. I always underestimate the power of the martini since I have only been drinking them for maybe a year.

All I know is, I go to the bathroom, I come back out, and ol' girl (Steph's friend) has broken the table at which we were sitting because her boyfriend told her that I followed him into the bathroom and came onto him. ROFLMAO. Okay, I went into the bathroom ALONE -- which was later confirmed, admited by dude himself who had actually came in after me (Bento has a unisex bathroom). Dude was a drama queen, and had been staring at me all night and I barely acknowledged him. He treated his girl like crap the entire time & then had the nerve to tell her I was hitting on him. Before I had the chance to defend myself (and likely cause a scene myself), Steph carries me home and I go to bed fuming (poor Trent had to listen to my drunken cursing all night).

I talked to Stephanie today and everything's OK, even with the girl friend (I guess Steph broke down to her that her boyfriend's a d*ck on the way home). But, it makes me not want to chill with some girls, yanno? I guess me & Steph'll fly solo from now on. Maybe. Ridiculousness.

Pictures:

Me & Stephie poo after a couple martinis

Who was this guy? I don't remember but he was the only non-skeev at the table

Me & Lady Hercules (before she broke the table)

I suppose Steph & I really DO have much more fun when we go out alone. Even if we end up in a loft apt downtown drinking top-shelf wine with well-to-do thirty-something's after VIP'ing at Spice Bar for a night. Crazyyyy random times me & this girl have. But I love her.

You'd think he was her boyfriend. We were feelin' good & met these nice guys at a concession stand across from the nightclub. "Can I get a hotdog?" LOL!

Bedtime for moi.
