Oh yeah, and I said something to Uncle Scarbelly about wound sex at the party. I think it was officially a faux pas, but anyone who knows me will also attest that it's Laura's basic drunk party ettiquette.

Stolen from Sigmaration because I can...

Friday Five (on Sat.

Who was
1. ...your first grade teacher's name?
Mrs. Beebleheimer who did in fact have a beehive hair-do. She was an eval bitch who went after me every day of that cursed year, even bringing my mother into the fray to investigate why I was doing so much hard time on the playground bench (my mother also decided that she was EVAL). She continues to teach, the legacy continues.

2. ...your favorite Saturday morning cartoon?
George of the Jungle, that is when I didn't have ballet. Ugh.

3. ... very first best friend?
Amber Garcia, she kicked ass...she rode all the scary rides at Knotts Berry Farm and knew all of the cool songs from Blondie.

What was
4. ...your favorite breakfast cereal?
Lucky Charms, yo...Hello! I'm Irish.

5. ...your favorite thing to do after school?
Read. Watch MTV. Hang upside down on the jungle gym and flash the boys. Good times, being a five-year-old rebel in bible school.

It's SO wrong, but the SNL Benny Hill Passion of the Christ made me laugh out loud.

I may be struck dead, but at least I'm smiling.

In case you were wondering, this is "Fattism" and it sucks.

Does anyone have any advice on good international travel guides?

I'd like to make a modest investment in my China Travel Guides, but given that there are so many choices out there, I'm a little overwhelmed and unsure of which ones to buy.

Here are the top contenders:

Fodor's
Discovery Channel Insight Guides
Lonely Planet
Rough Guide

Whaddaya think?
