Quickies #10 - Too lazy/busy

Random bits:

* False Advertising: People should stop referring to Wednesdays as "Hump Day" unless they're actually going to hump me. This is not only confusing, but also cruely raises my spirits -- only to dash them to pieces shortly thereafter like, "Oh...you meant there's only two more workdays til Friday...and you don't want to...oh, ok...I see...no, no problem."

* Ill Doctrine.com: You should check this cat out. I've spent more than my fair share of time lurking about Jay Smooth's hiphopmusic.com blog archives. Then, he started up with all the video joints. Awesome. It's people like him that make me hate the fact that I suck at the whole using words thing. He's my new (only?) favorite video blogger. If I were the swooning type, I'd be all like *swooooooon*. Love 'em & can't get enough.

* The most horrifying of all Harry Potter books:

You can't defeat Wal-Mart, Harry. No one can. Well, except Ze Germans. Don't worry, I won't tell you what happens. And I'll do this by not reading the book at all...just like the previous six times. However, I might ask MissFee to reveal the ending to me...just like the previous six times. This will save me the effort of, well...everything.

* Speaking of Ze Germans:

If you want a German guy of your very own to cuddle up with at night. Maybe try eastern Germany. They are currently experiencing a shortage of vaginas. However, don't expect me to show up there because 1.) Their accents make me dry heave 2.) I sense a distinct lack of appreciation for my milk-chocolatey mulatto goodness.

The Best Taco Bell in Germany

 Last weekend, I crossed off a major item on my bucket list. I went to Taco Bell in Germany. "But Raven, shouldn't you aspire to better, healthier things that have a measurable positive impact on society?" I know that's what you're thinking, but I don't really give a crap... because you are not the boss of me.  I wanted Taco Bell, because it's probably the one thing from back at home that I crave the most. Say what you want about it (again, I don't give a crap), but get at me when you've spent years away from your homeland and are unable to acquire whatever nasty-ass comfort food is available wherever you're from. For me, my nasty-ass comfort food of choice is Taco Bell...with Sonic a close second. However, you can't even find Sonic all over the U.S. and I don't find myself craving burgers and hot dogs all the time (plus, those urges are a lot easier to satisfy than a craving for Mexican or Tex-mex).

The One Who Got Away (Part 6): PLOT TWIST

Quick Translation: This confirms that German citizenship will not be opposed, if within two years it can be verified that the aforementioned person no longer possesses citizenship for Trinidad and Tobago e   and/or has fulfilled the requirements for the loss of this citizenship and that nothing has happened in the meantime, which would forbid naturalization.  I almost forgot what it felt like to receive a industrial size dose of 100% homegrown German bureaucratic pedantry. Luckily, the German authorities will never leave you too long without a fix. You can count on that. As you can see from the picture above (and from my previous posts), Trinidad and Tobago e  had only been mentioned once in passing up until now, when I finalized my application and paid the fee. Mr. S: Your mother was naturalized in the U.S. after you were born? Me: Yes, but she never applied for Trinidadian citizenship for me, which would have had to have been done by my 18th birthday....
I’ve been fighting a huge craving for Taco Bell all day long. I don’t know how the idea got in my head, but I can’t seem to shake it. It’s not even so much that I want tacos or Mexican(-ish) food. In fact, I think if someone were to make a taco and put it right in front of me (ok, admittedly, I would eat it). However, there would be a part of my soul that would be entirely disappointed that it wasn’t Taco Bell. I found the Unofficial Taco Bell Blog this afternoon. I highly recommend it, especially if you (in their words) want to know more about the "seemingly endless wonders of Taco Bell". If you are jonesing for the Bell, however, this site will do nothing but compound the problem. Maybe part of the reason that I can’t stop thinking about it, is because Tunde is coming to Hamburg next Tuesday. And when I think Tunde , I think about the Air Force. When I think of the Air Force, I think about how the only Taco Bells in Germany are located on Air Force bases. These location...
