Heads up party people, mitzimoments now features a bi-weekly poll. So even if you’ve subscribed via email, there’s STILL a good reason to fall through every single day (in addition to the checking out my adorable face).
Hopefully, you’ll find my random questions as entertaining as I do (read: I’ve always been the kid who takes joy in asking the mildly inappropriate question and now I have a platform). And then just to put icing on the cake, I’ll hit you with my take on what you think. ‘Cause everybody knows that it really ain’t fun till I poke fun at someone.

Ok kids, the painting has finally begun… Of course, not without making an emergency run to my new 2nd home/ the DIY vortex/ Home Depot at 7.30am this morning. Because despite spending an entire hour and half contemplating every shade of beige, tan and brown known to man, I still managed to walk out with a color that looked like barf when I did my stripe pre-test (thank you Joan for the pre-test suggestion). SIGH.
Fingers crossed, it will all blend together from here on in. Get it, “blend“??? Ha.
So after three and a half long years in my apartment, I am finally ending my love/ hate relationship with the eclectic, DIY decor theme (read: haphazard, whatever works) that I’ve assembled and completely redecorating all the major rooms. Recession be damned; I’m talking new paint, new furnishings, and an all over new grown and sexy attitude. Are you with me?
But I gotta tell you, your girl has absolutely ZERO home decorating skills and even less interest in the HDTV channel whatsoever. Like seriously, the very thought of the paint section of Home Depot gives me an anxiety attack. There are like a ka-zillion different shades of freaking white. How the hell an I supposed to know which one works best in my apartment??? Then there all these technical temperature terms- warm color, cool shade, etc, etc. And we haven’t even started on the throw pillows and conversational pieces…MY GOD.
All I want to know is, where is my Martha Stewart gene? How come I can’t figure out what subtle tones and what shades compliment each other just by looking at the paper swatches. And more importantly, why isn’t it a good idea to paint my accent wall hot pink????
Oh my GOD, Sarah Silverman released what is by far the funniest get-out-and-vote-for-Obama video EVER. In what’s being called The Great Schlep movement, Sarah encourages young liberal Jewish voters to get off their fat asses, fly to Florida and convince their grandparents not to screw Barack Obama over in the election just because his middle name is Hussein. I promise you, its so funny I started to snort!!
Just cause it made me so happy, not only am I providing a link but, I’ve also added the actual video at the very bottom of the page (so scroll down NOW). Oh and if you’re Jewish or have a good Jewish friend, PLEASE pass it along. This election is WAY too important to be complacent…
So apparently OJ isn’t the only one headed directly to the clink.
Earlier today, a Hong Kong jury dismissed an appeal by Nancy Kissel the American housewife (read: privileged white woman) has was convicted of murder and sent to prison for life after feeding her wealthy Merrill Lynch banker hubby a sedative spiked milkshake and then wait on it… clubbing him to death with a statuette. Then homegirl rolled his body up in a carpet and tried to hide him in a storage room. Too bad in real life, bodies decompose and the rancid smell of rotting flesh gave her away. EEWWWAAAA!
The ‘Milkshake Murderess’ as she has come to be known, has repeatedly tried to claim self-defense. But I’m thinking all that went through the window when the prosecution found out about the TV repairman lover waiting for her back in the United States.
Why is this so the next Lifetime movie of the week? I can see the title now…
Clubbed For Love.
Come on, you know I’m right…
