Pacman and "Ascot"

"He was wearing a sombrero. ... JUST a sombrero."

OK, first up, I missed 11:11(:11) by a minute, sadly enough. And I kept waking up randomly that morning too. *tears*

There's always December of next year!!! xD

Aside from that, I went to my cousin's third birthday party yesterday, and it was at Chuck E. Cheese. I went for the pizza. Seriously. I was given a choice on whether or not I wanted to attend. But we also went to see the Pacquiao fight later that night.  Never. Again. I felt so outta place there...I was surrounded by little people...and being bullied by eight-year-old Cambodian twins... They wanted my tokens...

Afterwards, we killed about 4 hours at my aunt's house then watched Pacman claim another victory. Although it wasn't as extreme as the Shane Mosley fight (when Manny Pacquiao was pushed down, then beat the crap outta Mosley as revenge), but it was good during the...8-12 rounds??? The first part was a lot of fake-outs and misses, so I liked the end better.

LOL. HBO got an interview with Juan Manuel Marquez in the dressing room or something, and to us (the viewers) it looked like Marquez was wearing a sombrero. JUST a sombrero. xD

RANDOM: While watching the Pacquiao-Marquez fight, I started imagining up characters for this one faux-story...and it consisted of a teenage girl boxer.

This morning I was gonna start chara designs for this other faux-story, and I got distracted because I didn't know how to tie this one guy's...thing, and I had no idea what the thing was called. So I went all Google, and got even further distracted. I decided ol' dudE wore an ascot (« link to a commercial site) when he was younger.

I found all sorts of cool pictures, including some aviator goggles. I also came across pictures of the Ascot race somewhere in UK. All I have to say is: don't mess with the ladies and their hats.

MAN. I knew about English women often wearing hats, especially on special occasions, but these were just WOW. So fancy and eye-catching. And their dresses were flamboyant as well. Here are some pics off of Google Images:
CHEESE!!
Fancy hats: now for men!!
Man, seriously. Why can't we wear such outlandish items here in the US? And in case anyone (anyone who actually reads this post) might take offense at what I say, first of all, too bad, and second, I have  no issue with the UK and their fashions. In fact, I kinda want a crazy/eye-catching hat too. Except here I'd be ostracized and thrown into a crazyhouse for that...or just ostracized. 

Yep, I was just expressing the normal human reaction given when faced with a new or alien idea or concept. My apologies for being human.

...OH YEAH! I found 17¢ in my aunt's car's trunk, and a quarter on the floor somewhere.

Yesterday I was 42¢ richer.

I feel like I was planning on blogging about something else, but I forget what...

--OMG MUFFINS FOR BREAKFAST!!!
