Ginger Snap of the Day
So sorry for the delay! If only San Francisco didn't have so many fabulous things to do, I would have more time to sit on my computer and write!
In my household, the magic 8 ball is a thing of the past. If my roommates and I need to know what to do, we ask Napoleon Dynamite. Click HERE to see what I'm talking about. Our friendly figurine lets us know not only what he thinks we should do, but his opinion on matters that range from politics to fashion. He doesn't always have much to say, and "Tina you fat lard, eat the FOOD" doesn't always translate to fashion statements.
Recently however, Napoleon has been so spot on, it's getting a lil creepy. Last night my roomie and I were talking about 3 somes... Just a general girls talk, typical stuff... If we would do it, would it be 2 guys or 2 girls.. etc.
So then the question arises, what does Napoleon think of 3 somes??
to which he replied, "GROSSSSS!"

Ginger Snap of the Day
Throwback Wednesday!
When I was an adolescent my father was very strict on what kind of music I could listen to, in grade school he caught me with a TLC tape (Crazy, Sexy, Cool) and followed up with a mixed tape of his own. It included such bands as Kings X (don't know them? shame on you click here), Bush, Chemical Brothers. Today I thank my dad for his musical selections...
I can remember listening to a certain song that had a man singing the vocals, "I could never be your woman." As an adolescent I thought, well of course he could never be his or her woman. The person singing is a man. My imagination would run wild, does this person think the singer is a woman? Does the singer dress in drag?
To this day I have been perplexed by not only the meaning of the song, but the artist. Great Ginger, you say, but why is this coming up today??!!
Well.. today while jamming out to the Girl Talk station on Pandora, I almost deleted my employers website out of excitement when the song came on. I have never been able to find the song, or hear it again, but can always get it stuck in my head even 13 years later. "OOOH I can never be yourrr woman!"
For the last 13 years I assumed this song was by the Chemical Brothers... only to look at my phone and see the words "White Town" under band name...
WHO THE EFF IS WHITE TOWN?!
...This Ginger now admits her musical fail, and her love for a one hit wonder...
Check out the video here!

A little Benedict Brett (<-- click that shit) History:
1. retired from the Green Bay Packers (cried, held conferences, cried, fans cried, etc)
2. whine, changes mind, said HEY I still want to play
3. whine, and sign with the Jets
4. whine, retire again
5. whine, decides to come back.. to who? it's still up in the air, but maybe MN
6. whine, decides to stay retired
7. whine, secret flight to MN... signs with... THE VIKINGS
17 years as Green Bay Packer, 17 years of a HUGE rivalry between the Packers and the Vikings... This would be more of a kick in the balls to fans if we didn't have Aaron Rodgers :) finally... I have to shout out to Ashton Kutcher for laying it all out there, be careful guys.. he is FURIOUS (CLICK FOR A FURIOUS ASHTON)
OH SNAP!

Monday!
I recently saw the trailer for the new Quentin Tarantino Film "Inglorious Bastards.
There is something about the way Brad Pitt says "killin' Nazis" that turns me on. Which leads into the snap of the day.
How Mr. Pitt stays the hottest man in the world baffles me. One would think after years our love for Brad would see diminishing returns.. but no, every new thing I see him in, I think.. man he is HOT, it just doesn't end!
I wouldn't mind if every guy looked like Brad Pitt.. and we all had Brad Pitt boyfriends with different personalities. Oh a perfect world

The Misadventures of a Ginger backpacker
What’s the difference between peeing in the pool, and peeing into the pool? LOCATION
FACT: most women from the Midwest learn how to “pop-a-squat” while proving their drinking skills in high school. Parties in fields, and barns, insert place lacking a bathroom here, force a young and energetic 16 year old to become accustomed to the “drip dry.”
As the band geeking, paper writing ginger that I was, these were not rites of passage I managed to experience. While on my first backpacking trip I discovered I lacked the “pop-a-squat” skill. I disrobed and assumed the ready position. I shifted feet, I changed my angle, and then I got stage fright. I looked over my shoulder wondering what kind of wildlife was witnessing this, laughing at the poor excuse for a mammal that cannot even empty themselve.
After some pep talk, I gained to courage to commence flow. SHIT… that’s my pants, slight adjustment, SHIT that’s my foot… I got to the point where I said fuck it, and didn’t even finish. It baffles me how one can direct the flow of traffic with an innie. Times I wish I had a penis count: 1.
FACT: Despite portraying the myth of being able to hold down a gorgeous loft on barista wages, Friends offers pure fact in “The One With the Jellyfish” you should pee on a jellyfish sting.
Unfortunately for me, the jellyfish sting came AFTER I managed to pee all over myself.
Oh SNAP!

Sunday!
What does a Ginger do on a Sunday morning? Why Irish Breakfast of course!
While washing down some Irish Bacon with Jameson, I read an interesting sign posted behind the bar of the Blarney Stone, it read:
On the first day God created man, then rested....
On the second day God created earth, then rested....
On the third day God created woman, and since then no one has rested!
Why was man created before earth? What did the men do with out earth? Of course I immediately picture a bunch of naked men floating around in outer space. They would definitely have hard cocks.. no one wants to see a flaccid penis. (A flaccid penis with no gravity anyway... hmm would that mean even a flaccid penis looks hard in outer space?)

Welcome to Ginger Snaps!
As the unofficial ginger ambassador to the city of San Francisco, I welcome you to Ginger Snaps! What is a Ginger Snap you ask? Why an adventure (or misadventure) in the life of your soon to be favorite redhead. Who am I? Why should someone spend precious minutes procrastinating at work reading this blog? Good question.
You should read this blog if:
- You are literate
- You have two thumbs
- You enjoy laughing at other people's expense… aka mine
- You love gingers
While talking to Xtina, my SF life mate, about an introduction to my blog, I mentioned I should probably describe myself a little. To which she replied, "god I don't think you can put you into words!"
Thank goodness for that… Intro concluded… ENJOY!
