My First Post: How Surreal

hello world.

After much debate for quite some time now, I have decided to start blogging, simply because I have a lot to say and really no mode of communication to express my thoughts and emotions or  to share the topsy turvy tales of my life. Before I begin, you should probably know some basics:

Name: Anna Kathryn Perrotti
Location: Chicago, IL aka the greatest city on earth (more to come later...)
Current Occupation: Cashier at Whole Foods Market, a position granting me the titles of "hippy" by conservatives and "agent of big business" by liberals
Planned Occupation: English/Music Educator
Dream Occupation: Food Critic and/or Actress
Favorite Food: Peanut Noodles and TRUE ITALIAN COOKING
Nationality: 50 Irish, 50 Italian
Favorite Colors: Coral and Periwinkle Blue (or whatever color my wall in my room is)
Activities in Spare Time: eating more than my body wants, loving little baby penguins, watching any movie I can get my hands on, shopping till I drop, Eating (again), Traveling the world and seeing everything, obsessing over the fact that I wish I lived in Europe, seeing shows on and off Broadway, watching Penguins hockey, 80's pop culture, memorizing every line from every episode of Friends, planning to see Barbra Streisand live sometime in my life, openly discussing sexual liberation, jamming to Dave Matthews, living and loving the city of Chicago, singing, theatre and drinking, (again more than my body wants) specifically Captain Morgan, Long Islands and Wine.


Eating too much...


Drinking too much...

I want the words I write to be more than just pixels on a computer screen. To quote Dante Gabriel Rosetti "A sonnet is a moments monument." My posts will reflect the "good times, the bad times and the shit times" (shamelessly stolen quote from Borat) and maybe even be entertaining.

Until tomorrow...

Shit, my friends now know about my blog.

Fuck. The real world and the virtual world have crossed over. I shamelessly exposed my blog to them and now, I can not longer scorn and bitch about them in a public forum. This could lead to some negative repercussions...So instead, I decided to do a little tribute about each of them, hoping that they'll read it and feel good about themselves for a brief moment the return to their bitter, self-loathing lives (only joking, kinda). I will specify that these friends are in NO particular order of favorites. And that no dirty secrets will be revealed, I can't go "Harriet the Spy" on all of them and have them hate me for writing down things observed in my journal. How about to keep it fair, I go in chronological order of when I met them? Caitlin Deirdre Lynch I decided to chose a picture where we look like utter and complete hotties, so that we can remember the good days. I met Caitlin in a very ambiguous year, sometime in preschool presumably, that it's so far

Organics and Bitches: My life at Whole Foods

Sorry fellow bloggers! I have been swamped with working like a donkey at Whole Foods the past 2 weeks that I have neglected to post anything :( I am a terrible person and promise to keep up in a more timely manner Since I have been dedicating so much time to work, I figured I'd talk a little bit about the organic food emporium of Whole Foods Market Wheaton. From "Whole Paycheck" to "expensive as shit," I've heard every single nickname that has been created for this great place of business. While I may complain about the ridiculousness of my job and bitch about how much it cuts into my social life, I love where I work. My co-workers are some of the nicest, hardworking and unique people I have met in my life and the benefits of working there are pretty spectacular. From a great insurance plan, to a 401k, not to mention my 20% discount (which I can apply to be greater if my blood pressure, bmi and shit are all in order), the job is pretty much foolproo

The Most Historic Weekend of My Life

Sorry world to have blogged so little in the past few days, as the title states... ITS BEEN A HISTORIC WEEKEND! Let's break down all the crazy shit that happend April 29-May 1, a la "Best Week Ever" on Vh1. Friday, April 29th 2011 Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding! I cried my eyes out! What a beautiful wedding...I secretly wish that Brian was the Prince of Poland so we could be married in the same style. Oh well. Saturday, April 30th 2011 WWSHS Classics win National Championship! The video says it all. Sunday, May 1st 2011 Osama bin Laden is announced dead! There I was, innocently watching a sex trafficking documentary on MSNBC and then there is a breaking news of the President making an announcement to the world! Who thought he'd killed the single-greatest threat to the US to date? He told the country that he had found a lead last August and finally found that it had lead him to bin Laden being hidden in a compound in Pakistan. S
