"i was just homaging you"

i have never actually tried tofurkey. everyone i know hates it. they all say it tastes like a giant hot dog with hot-dog flavored stuffing. it can't be pleasant, and it certainly does not look appealing. barf.

speaking of gross foods (mainly hot dogs and things that taste like hot dogs) this weekend was a cultural cafeteria.

but before i say all of that dumb crap, i need to draw your attention to this:
"A super-fun sex toy that plugs into your iPod! The music-activated vibrating bullet stimulates you in time with your favourite music"...for how long have i been talking about the necessity to invent such a thing? the perfect boyfriend? i should have patented the idea while i still had the chance....anyways, my birthday is december 31st, in case you are wondering.....

• thursday was the talib kweli show. a little known caitlin fact is that my absolute FAVORITE type of shows to go to are hip hop shows. the crowds are always so much more fun, genuinely excited and not snobby. diverse. people dance. no scene high school kids. i have never seen a 'fight circle' like at hardcore shows. nobody is too cool, like at dumb rock shows (see: the strokes in central park two summers ago). it is a 100% sick experience. and talib was excellent. really high energy.
  
• friday night a bunch of us headed to the fundraiser party/show for the Rockabetty Bruisers All Women's Roller Derby team.
• 
• so hot right now. one of my dearest friends, butterscotch, is pretty much the MVP of the team. She goes by the name "Butterscotch Cripple", which suits her perfectly.
• the next morning i headed to the met with my roommate who was going for a drawing class she is taking. we met the master of all things antagonistic, joe stramowski. the main exhibit we needed to see was the van gogh drawings. the line/crowds were outrageous, as i expected them to be. i had never been to the met before, and i found it to be overwhelmingly spectacular, but also it also made me a bit claustrophobic. it took us an hour just to figure out how to leave the place! the good thing is that we ran into our friend jodi (she works there), and we got to see more art than we bargained for. i have issues with large museums. i have traveled to the louvre, the vatican, the collesium, the met, etc. all with in the last 2 years and whenever i enter a place of such seriousness, and overwhelming grandeur, i just get silly. especially around iconic art. skins vs. chasibles anyone?

• visited Bar on A (B.O.A.) for the first time in like 2.5 years (give or take) with my pal jake saturday night. when i was younger and (gasp) underage, the couple times i went there i always felt like such a kid. they carded both jake and i, so i have no idea how i got in when i was 18. either way, it is still a neat bar and every other song they played was good, which is a lot to say for any bar. good times.
• today was one of my oldest college buddy (brittawnee)'s dance show. she was breathtaking, as always.
  

so tomorrow (monday) i will be heading back to sharon massachusetts for a bit to see the family, NOT eat tofurkey (but also not eat turkey), and work on graduate school applications. i am going to need a beer for this.
