QWA...

As in "What the Qwa?"...

Thanks to some rapper on Kiss FM, it's my new word - love it.  Move over WTF, WTQ is the new man in town.

what do you get when you mix Ktown class AND Spanky's bar?

Cell phone saga...continued

So, last night, with great joy, I went to pick up my cell phone from this lady's house...

She went on to say how her 13yr old son found my phone, when he was supposed to be at school (STRIKE 1), he said he didn't turn it in because he didn't want to be questioned (STRIKE 2)...so he "planned" to give it to the police officer at school, but the police officer "happened" to not be there (STRIKE 3)...

Any way she handed over my phone and I leaped with joy back to the car.  I turn my phone on to find a different screen saver?  I'm like what?  I had a the cutest pic of me, my nephew,  mom and sister in our hot tub with our winter hats on in Dec...so, I go to check my pics and they are all DELETED....

Then, I go to to check my texts and they are ALL deleted...I'm like, this little punk face...he was texting and erased all of them...he was not planning on turning my phone in, this piece 'o crap was going to keep my phone...

BUT, I am thankful that I have it back=)

Typical me, trying to multi-task at the grocery store...talking on the phone, trying to shop, and doing self checkout at the same time...yeah doesn't work.

So, I get off the phone, complete the checkout and go to work.  It's the afternoon and I'm like "Where the heck is my phone?!?"...all of a sudden ***FLASHBACK*** I see myself at the the self check-out and I totally set my phone down and left it!! CRAP...

So, like 5:30, go to Pick 'n Save after work, ask their services center if anyone turned in a phone...Nope.

Grrr.  I was like, "well, maybe someone picked it up but just forgot to turn it in and will later..." at this point I was frustrated but still had a little hope...

So, I go to dinner with my neighbor Pete, and he's like "mosh, did you not understand my joke when I texted you?"....my response "what are you talking about - I left my phone at Pick n Save around 8am"...his response "well, you texted me at 10:30 and 11:00"...

now, I'm flaming....the nerve...the audacity...not only did this hoodlum steal my phone but they are replying to my texts!!! what next?

basically, it ruined my night...I was so pissed, devastated, and just felt lost.  went to bed early, grumbling....even had a dream that my front 4 top teeth and bottom one keep falling out.. (that sucked too)

So, this morning...I declared that I would not be down about this any longer!!  Worse things can happen...it's just a cell phone...i can regain most numbers...I'll just be out some money and time - fine.  Just call me Patty Positive.  I even left the culprit a voice mail on my phone...if they were texting, they were probably listening to my messages too...so I asked them kindly to return my phone to Pick n Save and I would be extremely grateful.

So, I go to work and have an e-mail from Cal...it says..."hey, i know you lost your phone...i called you at 4:30 and this lady called me back - her son had found your phone at pick 'n save and he gave me her number"....

honestly - i wanted to scream and dance!  how cool?!?  Yes!!!  Woo-hoo...joy, joy, joy, down in my heart.

Lesson learned:  if you find something, please turn it in...someone out there is fretting.  I can't wait to return the favor to society (ok, that sounded a little cheesy but I'm so serious).  So, just like that little guy who saw dead people (i'm totally blanking on his name) did - PAY IT FORWARD.

Phashionable...

Oh yes, I made up this new word today!  Please use only in the appropriate scenario...if you see a shirt or perhaps a pair of shoes that you CANNOT live without - this is a case of fashion with a "ph."

"phat" is so yesterday.  Hello Phasionable.

Project Runway Winner...Christian!

Gosh, this was a nail biter...ever since I saw Jack carry Christian in his hand bag on the way up to the work room - I knew I loved this little guy...

As I watched the finale, I was so nevous, I thought both Jillian's and Rami's collections were amazing...I seriously did not know what the judges were going to do...

Both Jillian and Rami will be successful no matter if they won or lost, so I was so happy to see the deserving Christian take the title.  It's amazing to see the talent in this "fierce" 21 year old.  I'm so excited to see what he does...

  Couldn't you just eat him up?

With so much excitement...I am also so sad to see my favorite show come to an end...thank God Top Chef Chicago is coming our way to fill this 9:00 time slot on my Wednesday night=)

Thought For Food...rocked!

3 great things:  live music, beer, and giving to charity!

Racine had it's annual Thoughts for Food and it was an amazing time.  For $15 and 2 non perishable food items, you could get in 10 different bars each with 4 bands in time slots from 7-2am.  My favorite stop was Coasters - hosting both 89 Mojo and Radioactive Squirrels.  If you get a chance, both play in the Kenosha/Racine area probably monthly!

Check out mojo in action:

And here are their sites:
