Currently Playing: “Boys” by Ashlee Simpson
You know what I just realized makes me really happy? The following things:
1. Going to bed early. Yeah, snuggling with a guy in bed is nice, but it’s also fine just to lie there with all my (very) luxurious blankets and wrap up in a cocoon of warmth and fuzz. Ooooh, yeah.
2. A good egg salad sandwich. I mean, I don’t know if I’ve ever had a bad one, but you know.
3. My new pseudo-waldorf salad. It consists of apples (janigold), raisins, walnuts, and Dannon Light and Fit vanilla yogurt. SO tasty. Trust me on this.
4. MILK! I cannot live without a healthy swig of some good skim milk everyday. If you want me to love you, just offer me a gallon (not a saucer; I’m not a kitty) of milk.
5. Milla Jovovich. Umm…hello? This one’s a no-brainer. Just look at her eyes. Or her lips. I’d kill to have those lips. Well…I’d kill a cockroach or something. But it’s still killing.
And then my little sister texted me today to ask what my favorite pokemon was. I said Ninetales. Now, Ninetales is a pokemon that just hasn’t gotten the respect (or new evolution) that it deserves. While usable in its current final evolution, Ninetales could benefit from a bolstered defense or (ideally) special attack stat. I mean, it’s movepool is quite good for an annoyer, but apparently the newest roster from D/P has summarily ended the reign of the annoyer. Ninetales, which could WoW physical sweepers as well as successfully land hard hits using a Nasty Plot/Flamethrower/Dark Pulse combo, now has to contend with pokemon that nullify the utility of its compensatorily high special defense stat. D/P introduced pokemon that can instantly down Ninetales, which is just unfair. I mean, just look at the pokedex entry for the thing. It’s supposed to be a legend, for mack’s sake! But regardless of how useless Ninetales becomes compared to new pokemon generations, I’ll still use it on my teams. And why’s that? Because Ninetales is one of my favorite things! And so it belongs on the permanent Top Ten list of things that make me happy! The remainder is to be filled out as this blog continues.
