jacques cousteau ain't got nutthin' on me!
'cuz i saw King Kong do a burlesque dance to Britney Spears.
ya, so let me back up. last wednesday, before class, i stopped by el casa of my favorite costa ricans on b-way, and the middle child beckons me over to the computer to check something out. it's a video of a woman breastfeeding her cat. it doesn't really shock me that much, just a little strange, especially cuz the cat is all cupping the breast with its paw, and it's for tv. they're trying to ply the cat away, but it's not going anywhere. i get to thinking it's a special bond between "mommy" and "baby" but it turns out that the cat's a bit of a whore, because it's shown just going around to suckle on anybody's teet. i'm not sure if the women were actually lactating or if they were paid big bucks to let this thing get some nipple action, but i thought it would be the weirdest shit i saw that week.
wrong. there's a giant camel at dadabase in the window. i gotta get me one of those main street for peace ts. the dinosaurs are roaming the city, i think as a promotional thing for storeum, and though i'll never go there, it was kinda neat to see the number 5 bus get caught up and held up by a stegasaurus (i'm paranoid that i'm spelling this wrong).
saturday nite, i go to the reel sista's film festival, catch some really great flicks (for further, check out www.ricepaperonline.com ) and the bonus show is Your Little Pony dancing to Britney's "Slave 4U" in a gorilla suit, pasties, and some satin boxer briefs (cuz i guess you can't get thongs gorilla sized) It was wildly tittilating and so burlesquey. whew.
thursday nite, i went to granville island's improv comedy nite of 'breaking news' and one of the stories they acted out was that of the silky haired lobster finding, so it was on my mind for the next couple of days. after talking my co-workers' and customers' ears off for a few days, i made my way to rice to get them to google it in the office, and it was an ugly mutha (shut your mouth!) damn. who would've thunk that they would've dug up an albino, silky haired lobster with no eyes at the bottom of the sea?
so, other than a lovely trip to richmond and a long week culminating in a "nap" that was intended for 15mins and ended up being 12 hours long, that's about all, except that i got approached for another web writing job and my baby's gonna be here in 6 days, 5 days his time now. on my way to Lick..belladonna awaits. www.sistahoodcelebration.com y'all!
