That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!

Dude, what is up with my Seinfeld references lately? The show has been off the air for 14 years but I can’t just seem to say goodbye with the first the salsa/seltzer reference and now this post. So for those of you looking for some topical humor, apologies.

Nothing better to kick off my Friday than running into my nemesis first thing on my commute to work yesterday. Yes, you heard that right, I have a nemesis (and feel kind of bad ass saying I have a nemesis). I call him Goldmember.

After one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen.

This dude is the worst drivers I’ve ever come across and just plain ignorant. He is forever riding someone’s ass, cutting people off and I see him every morning. After the first four times I thought it was a coincidence that I ran into him but that was two weeks ago so it seems like that fate has brought us together to battle. I don’t know what’s worse-that I thought he was a manly looking chick until this morning or that he works across the block from me. One of these we are going to have words I tell you but until then, I vow to keep Goldmember as my #1 nemesis in Denver!

I’m really trying to practice patience with this dude but it’s a bit tough. But then I saw it was the Dalai Lama’s  birthday and figured I could at least try to be patient.

Besides that it was business as usual around these parts. I was stoked to get home by 5pm and promptly started dinner.

I made steak stir fry with bok choy, yellow squash and zucchini which sounds pretty boring but it became a stand out meal thanks to this one ingredient:

Like the jar said it was sweet but it packed a lot of heat. I put a spoonful on top and it did the trick!

Then the hijinx continued thanks to the ScoutMob app. It has a Stache Cam where you can try on different mustaches. I really wasn’t feeling the first two since I felt like I was channeling a saloon bartender and biker from the 70’s.

I decided if I was to ever grow a mustache (I’m Italian, it’s a possibility) that I would pay homage to the hipsters of Denver and go with the Van Skeevy.

I would have to hold off on the highlights though. The black stache totally clashes with the fake gold in my hair. Gold everywhere I tell you………

    Woman, you cracked my ass up. Plus, you had another Seinfeld reference and a “nemesis” drop that made me think of Dr. Evil, who I love. In other words, this was GOLD, TIffany. Gold!

  2. I reference Seinfeld at LEAST once a day. And I think I will forever, so quote on! And what an ass, I hate ignorant drivers. I always want to honk and scream, but I’m terrified that they’ll be legitimately crazy and like, kill me or something, so now I just quietly seethe.

  3. I personally enjoy the Seinfeld references so keep them coming. I still use old Simpson’s quotes and everyone stares at me awkwardly because they don’t get the reference. Worst!

  4. I love that you have a nemesis! This cracks me up. That is seriously something that would happen on Seinfeld. Most likely with George. Or actually, didn’t Jerry have that nemesis (phil hartman maybe?) that became a dentist to do dentist jokes and then became Jewish to do Jewish jokes?

  5. Holy crap- Seinfeld’s been off the air for 14 years?!?!? That makes me feel old. I remember watching NEW episodes and talking about it with my friends at school the next day. Oh yeah.. I graduated high school 14 years ago… eek.
    The goldmember drama KILLS me. I was telling Greg about it last night and I couldn’t even talk, I was laughing so much! Everytime you post a photo of that car on Instagram, I can’t breathe.

  6. Cheeso-petes you scared me! I was like “That dog is ADORABLE” and then I was like “Noooo!” and then “Whew!”

    But I’m dramatic like that.
