Not really much to say. Just random blurbing...

For those that aren't the luurkers I aspire them to be...I dyed my hair. It's not a huge change, but def noticeable and I love. The pic below doesn't really do the color justice. It's a dark chestnutty brown...kinda Lindsay Lohanesque, but it was my first dye job ever so I think it was a reasonable change. And that's all I pretty much have to say about that.



Thanksgiving was lovely, I must say. I got to see my mom's side of the family and went to my aunt's house to celebrate. All my cousin's are pretty much newly married except for the youngins, of course, and we even had a baby on board this time around...little April (gosh she's cutie). The food was so scrumptious, I wish I went back for seconds...but this year I did good and decided not to go overboard. I hate that "wow, I shouldn't have at that last bite" feeling. I didn't even really get sleepy until way late and I made it through Ryan's entire game against Miami, but passed out almost immediately after.

Tonight I stayed in and spent quality time with the fam. My mama hates when I finally come home from NY to visit and end up going out...plus I really just felt like stayin in and veggin. Me n' my mama are good at that...lol. But my brother and his girlfriend came over for a repeat Thanksgiving dinner...not leftover, but an entirely fresh display of turkey, gravy, potatoes, carrots, etc. etc. And after we filled our bellies yet once again, it was time to sit down and watch my new favorite show: Ghost Whisperer with Jennifer Love Hewitt. I was never a huge fan of hers, but I must say I love her in this show...and hence she inspired me to dye my hair originally. I haven't quite got the same color, but I'll shoot for it next time probably. Buuuut my mama had made these amazing pumpkin squares the other night which I decided I will definitely get the recipe of and possibly attempt for the Curbside Christmas Bash...that is...if everyone likes pumpkin.

As for plans for tomorrow....I will be flea-market shopping cause that's what I'm into now. Maybe a trip to good ol' walmart for a few stock-ups. And then it will be off to Grammy's house I go. I love that lady so much.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and ate lots n' lots of goodies.

Much love,
Jiscilla

Oh the holidays....'n' PICS!

Hi, hi, hi!!!


Oy...again, it's been a while. I try, I really do...to write more often, but it's not exactly easy. But like I said before...keep checkin my hiplog cause I update it everyday. And my hiplog will be great this week because I'll be going to Connecticut to visit the fam for Thanksgiving. Omigosh, I'm so excited. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas.....my favorite time of year!!! And speaking of...


Halloween = the most fun I've had in a long time. (NEW PICS posted as of Sunday night...check it in my "NYC Nightlife" section...and leave sum comments cause I said so). It was a tuesday night and where else would we go on a tuesday night but Black & White. Perf. I was down for anything...and taking a cab there was the best decision ever. I didn't want to waste another moment not being with the whole Curbside Gang. We saw some pretty wild costumes, but I must say...we were the cutest.

Ok, like half the girls there were in bunny costumes, but that's cause they were giving out free drinks to the girls who were going along with the Private Gentlemen's Club theme...(check out Erica's sweeet tights she screenprinted herself in my pictures). So yea, it was mucho fun and we totally danced the night away. Erica & I were the only girls left standing come 2:00 am. Though, I had work in the morning...it was HALLOWEEN (my favorite) so i wanted to be a trooper...and that I was, all thanks to Red Bull. Hell, we even ....well, lets just say we couldn't get enough of good ol' B&W. Erica and I made it a late night.


As for Thanksgiving...it's only 2 days away! Uh, I'm seriously craving the turkey dinner already. Mmmm, turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, corn, squash, sweet potatoes, green beans, pumpkin pie, apple pie, sweet potatoe pie and more...oh my! Wow, that just really made me hungry. I'm a lil sad my Niquealla won't be home to hang with. She'll be in Miami for Ryan's game (jealous)...but I most definitely will be watching it on the TV screen. I was actually supposed to go to Boston this past weekend to see him play, but plans didn't really fall through and I was a little sad. I've never seen one of his games in person...not since High School at least. And supposedly he's having a good season (although I'm not much of a football-wiz). I have to admit...I get excited watching his games cause I feel like I'm in High School again (wasn't really into any Marist (College) sports...well, besides Basketball, of course). But I'm so excited to see my puppy (well, she's not really a puppy anymore) and my Mags....I just love them so much and miss my an-yimals terribly when I'm in NY.


Then...Christmas...all I have to say is Christmas Curbside Bash! Gonna start counting down the days. Matter of fact, I'll start baking now! Lol...jk...but sooooooon!


Ok, but I really have to cut this short cause I'm at work and soooooo much has been going on, and I've been running around like a chicken with my head cut off. Hopefully I could write more later.


Love all y'all! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Gristedes run

Walkin past our park and down the block to the grocery store....pretty sunset

In the words of my roommate...

"I have three words that sum up why so many people of our generation have ADD...

PEE WEE HERMAN"

Seriously, when was the last time you watched an episode of Pee Wee's Playhouse...well for me and Ash, that was last night. I don't think I ever realized how cracked out it was. I used to love that show! Him with Cowboy Curtis, that genie dude, Penny, and his big rubber band & foil balls...but next time you watch it, you'll realize one topic/segment only lasts 30-45 seconds...and that's if your lucky! It seriously started to make my head hurt. Regardless, it was still a fantabulous blast from the past!

Basically...Pics & Hips

I've added some pictures over the past week to the Photo Album...so check it and leave comments to make me happy.

Also, I've added my hiplog to my site as well. For those that don't know what a Hiplog is...it's basically a mobile blog via sidekick. And for those that don't know what a sidekick is...look it up! Believe it or not...I've had plenty of people ask me. Maybe it's a city thing...or maybe just a music industry thing...or maybe just for those obsessed with keeping in touch with people and who are internet happy, but for those people who don't know what it is...this is it:

So yea...my Hiplog is added under my "Features" section...and I update it daily. Yes, I said DAILY!!! It's a mini blog, and it goes wherever I go...so enjoy it and have fun following me wherever I go. It's the closest you'll ever get to being my lil sidekick...hence the name. And yes...I only have the Sidekick II...and I'm proud. The "3" doesn't really have any other features and I'll wait for an even better version to come out before I upgrade. I waited a whole year before I caved into getting mine back in January and now I'm addicted, but I love it. If you don't have one now...you should go out and get one so we could be kick buddies. And that's all I have to say about that.

As for other things....I could write forever on the events that happened over the past week, but I stayed home from work today cause I'm a sick lil puppy, and I don't think my body will let me sit at this computer any longer. So this will be it for now. I love you all! Keep in touch!!!

Chicken Noodle Soup...

Chicken noodle soup...with a soda on the side.

Well not really with a soda, but that's how the song goes. But yea, I'm sick and stayed home from work today, slept, and ate me some chicky noodle soup.

Ooh-la-la

Its The Oohlas today at work.

*Hearts*

Happy Halloween!

Ok, so I fell asleep before I got to send out that last entry...I love the mornings where I wake up with my sidekick in hand. Erica, you are not alone!

And since I went to bed at 5am (leaving only 2 hrs of sleep before work), naturally, I woke up late. That left me with 15 minutes to get ready, and (would you really expect any different?) I just barely missed the bus. I had to sprint to the next stop (of course, laughing all the way at myself). Gotta love totally cracking up at the things I do...I can be quite amusing sometimes. Supposedly Christy thinks the same, too, as she was cracking up at me the entire night last night. Uh, last night...such good times. This will all get recapped by the end of the day, I'm sure.

I wonder how long it will take for me to crash at my desk today. It's always the best when u catch yourself doing "the head-nod." I have no clue how I'm gonna make it to dance tonight.

Okay I'm done now...time to actually do work. Here are some pics from before we went out last night.

PS...I was the infamous played-out playboy bunny due to the Private Gentleman's Club theme...and free drinks! Good thing I went 100% sober last night...lol.

Freakin B&W owns

Erica...can I just say....what the hell just happened? Did we really just do that? I know you love me....yes, I totally am your hero...this is great....really great. Who DOES that? We do...we sooo do. Amazing! Seriously amazing.

And, now, I'm in a cab...that smells like sex...annnnd I kinda wanna throw up. Gewwwww!

Oh boy....I can't wait for tomorrow's recap....and can we give it up for Red Bull....oh yeah!

Sorry, this entry was a total shout out.
