What the fuck. I love Be Your Own Pet. You do too, you won't admit it, I know, but you most certainly do too! I came across a Myspace bulletin from Nylon about BYOP and music videos and "we want you to be in it!"
That got me.
I clicked on it and BAM! like a sick twist of fate I read:
"Attention Minnesota: We're filming a Be Your Own Pet music video in your 'hood this weekend and we want you to come be in it!"
Flipping A. I didn't bother to read on because I was too heartbroken about the 'Sota thing. Why the hell would a music video of a band from Tennessee film in MN?! I know, it even made me use the ?! all over again!
Needless to say I am fucking disappointed. There went my chance to get discovered and become abso famous for just being myself like every other it girl, but fuck it. I will have to continue to whore myself out over Blogger in order to achieve said life position.
(I am just kidding, everyone)
Still, if you reside in MN, check this shit out. Yeah, whatev, you're welcome for the notice. If you get famous, email me and let me know so we can hook each other up, you with free shows and clothing discounts, and me with VIP rooms at the club. We can work it out.
Deuces,
Erika
(Also, Sarah Morrison, if you are reading, I like Nylon, but not half as much as I LOVE Missbehave. Haha :)

Lego Watches!!
Sometimes I find myself wondering, "what would my life be like if I had a dope watch AND some toys to play with when I got bored?" The answer used to be, "hmmm...I dunno."
Well, Target must have ESP because they've solved my query! Introducing, Lego watches! Peep:
These watches are bitchin'! You can tell time with them then play with the toy they come with! Why they are all Star Wars themed is beyond me but I'm definitely copping that R2D2 timepiece! Soooo much cooler than a Swatch watch and cheaper too! Gracias a Target! Go get them! They are your destiny.
Deuces,
Erika

Like, Awwwww!
Yesterday, while I was up watching Metalocalypse on Adult Swim (duh), I got this email on my Blackberry. (Yes, I had to mention I have a Blackberry. YES, it makes me better than you, stop asking)
I actually enjoy your blog. I didn't know you have a blog until I decided to click on your name thing (free promo bitchesss, take note) on missbehave like a week ago : ). I look forward to what you have to say. Whoo!
Monique
Well I don't know Monique personally, but I've offish decided that she's rad. Are people really reading this blog? And enjoying it? I would have never dreamed. Nobody else listens to me, except my boyfriend, but I think he just nods his head and tries to fast forward to when I stop talking and we have sex. ANYWAY, this just makes me happy. I hope people read this and agree or disagree, but I hope it starts something.
Sorry no one can leave comments, but I am far too cool and busy to deal with comments. I learned that from another rad chick.
So yep. Thx.

I'm On Missbehave!
In the worst way. In a time of desperation in my life, I hit Rika up to see if she could proffer any advice on how to fix my nail sitch. They looked fug-tastic as a result of me trying to do the leopard print nails previously featured. I thought, "hmmmm...neon colors, good, good." So I asked Rika what to do on the subject since she is a nail mastah!
But then she put my email up on Missbehave, along with the pic of my less than enviable nails. She did answer my question, though, and I really appresh it.
But anyone who makes fun of my nails or says something mean about me will die. I can fully get my cousins on you. They like to scrap.
Kthxbai.

Myspace...The Movie
When I was a sophomore, or thereabouts, in high school, my friends and I pretty much had residencies on Myspace. We were ALLZ about browsing through people's top8s, even if we didn't know them, just to pass the time. We even had our own Myspace for just the four of us and we just commented and talked amongst ourselves. Yeah, that's pretty lame.
Don't worry, I have become much cooler since those days. For you see I have graduated to this! To typing some words on a pink web page with a colonial looking woman in the corner of it. It's the good life.
Anyway, referencing back to the up top story, one, er (substance filled) night, while I was finishing out the jumbo bag of M&Ms and we had Mario Party 4 and the N64 on pause, we stumbled upon this dude called P.Davey. He was like some kid who went to Wesleyan (the richie rich kids school), and he had a ton of movies on his page. There we found the Myspace movie.
I have seen this like 27238729207737 times and it is fucking funny. This has inspired me to go dig up some of the also movies we found on Myspace, so more to come. Hahaha...come.
I think my friend had the hot pants for P. Davey 'cause she sent him a friend request, but he denied her. She seemed upset. Whatevs. She just needed to get laid.

It's Always Sunny In MY House Motherfuckers!
There is a reason why this is my favorite show. I just bought seasons 1 and 2 and EVENTUALLY I'll get the 3rd season. Why, you might ask yourself, if you do that kind of thing, would she be posting this? Well, it's not really any of your business, but I have a generous soul, so I shall tell you. It is Sunday.
And nobody is reading this anyway. Well, except for Sarah Morrison. But otherwise, yeah, I can kind of just put things on here for my own personal enjoyment. So this is a clip from It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, an FX show that is pretty much rad. I love it. You should to.
Do you?! Yes, that's right...you do.
Dee will eat your babies bitch!
