I can’t wait!!

There are things that I just can’t wait for: ya know–lunch, the next episode of How I Met Your Mother, and the weekend. And I am always waiting around for the next Linux Outlaws podcast!! Shout out to my boy Brit-boy Dan (dantheman on Jaiku) and my dread-locked Fabian (fabsh on Jaiku)! Love you guys…

But then there are things that I really, really can’t wait for:

The Dark Knight…not only to see Christian Bale in the hot bat suit, but to see Heath Ledger’s spine-tingling take on the Joker. I have been intrigued since I first saw Batman Begins…loved it more than the more comic book-type 90′s Batman movie series. (May cause some people to go into convulsions.)

Then there’s Madonna’s new cd: Hard Candy -dropping on April 28, 2008 (Isn’t that what the cool kids call it: “This CD is dropping next week”?)

Disclaimer: Here is where I come out and claim my love for Madge!

Sorry to disappoint and I know that there’s tons of great music out there, but little Chibbi grew up listening to “Material Girl”, “Who’s that girl?”, “Like a virgin”, “Papa don’t preach”…envision lil’ pigtailed Chibbs dancing along!

…and I just can’t deny the 80′s in me!!

Then there’s this great tune (IMHO):

Roll in May 22nd and you will have me jumping up and down, clapping, smiling and, overall, in a happy place.

You may ask yourself: What could cause such commotion in the Chibbi household?

Well, my friend, pay attention! It’s the movie premiere of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!!! (BREATHE!) I have prepared myself by watching the first three Indy films in the last months to recap.

Cue Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Cate Blanchett and my fave Shia LaBeouf….and I am smitten. And just look at the movie poster!!

Now, I am picking up my jaw off the floor!

Last, but certainly not least…is my tripku to jolly ol’ England in July!!

There has been an invitation extended to yours truly from the feebs on the other side of the pond to Feeble Fest 2008 to be held in and around the Liverpool area. Apparently it’s a meetup of the minds, the mentals, and the barely theres…”Feeble Outlaws Jaikooligans UNITE“.

So the plane ticket has been booked for July 18th and that’s the extent of my planning! lol

Can’t wait to get there and meet some new peoples: Overpills, Dantheman, KevanV, Fabsh, Zenith, Carlplage, Alistair, Chemist…among others. (If I didn’t include you–my apologies! My mind is off!)

Let’s just hope that I am “feeble” enough for this bunch!

By the way, what to wear in England in the summer???

Cheers and check ya next time!

Beckoning the Mac gods…

Picture it: you’re in your pj’s and talking away on the mobile with your friends:

Gab, gab, gab, giggle, gab, gab, giggle…[insert twirl hair]

Then, the never-ending battle of PC vs. Mac convo arises with LeBunny (it always does):

So…for many months now…there have been talks, debates, questions and tears.

No fighting words. We are friends…friends don’t fight over PC vs. Mac (maybe fight over the last fry when at McDonald’s), but never over gadget things. No matter how shiny and fast they may be.

So, there is a faint notion that I, too, can be an owner of a nice, new, shiny….and OH yes, pricey MacBook!

Stop the presses, call the media, notify the paparazzi, close down the local Apple store….heck, call the National Guard!

“Chibbi’s thinking of getting a Mac?”  You may ask yourself.

The rumors spread like wildfire during the dry season. Jaiku’s bird can’t keep up! MacBook sales skyrocket. Stock market soars….

But, there are several things left to ponder:

Will the Chibbi run out and get her Mac or was it all a ploy to attract attention?

Are there funds for such expenditure?

Will Sugar Daddies run to her aid?

Are there enough coins in the sofa cushions?

Or will the collection plate be passed around?

Over and out…
