09MayWhy Not Lunch With Us (2)

We all know that summer hits Florida early. Like a bat out of hell, the heat swoops in before spring can properly say hello. And it was a very untimely hello this year. Four days of spring isn't nearly enough to get these bods bathing suit ready.

Regardless, here we are. It's 83 degrees and gorgeous outside. Last weekend it was a scorching 92. Nothing is comfortable at that temperature; not even a pool. How do you breath if your face is underwater the whole time? That's exactly where it needs to be in 92 degree weather.

The Blonde Fox pool has been out of commission for a few months now as it struggles to get bathing ready as well. It recently had a school of tad pole larvae taking their sweet time to grow into cute and cuddly baby frogs. Slimy little guys. Don't be alarmed though. I'm taking care of it. We're about a week away from invading that glorious pond. Bbqs. Pool parties. Night time movies from your favorite float. They'll all be here soon.

And I CAN'T wait.

We spent a good portion of last summer drinking daiquiries at the Red Fox pool, visiting the springs, jumping from rope swings, and grilling out more times than I can remember. It was one of the best summers we've had. I'm stoked to do it all again.

Yep. I said stoked.

21MarchFunDay (0)

Today is a different kind of Sunday Funday. Instead of battling the bottle (a losing war), Lindsay and I spent a good portion of our day clawing our grimy paws through others throwaways, aka we went in search of antiques. Once we realized that we had hit a dead end with that task, we set out for our next adventure. Due to the depressingly gross weather, we decided to close ourselves up indoors and cook. Now, the ultimate question was WHAT to cook. I have this problem, one that I will confidently brag to you that I have gotten better at, the problem of not being able to make a decision. I'm not necessarily indecisive, I just don't like the task of coming up with plans. So, after putting our blonde heads together, we decided to get all Bobby Flay and make some tacos. Chicken soft tacos with homemade salsa.





Ok, so I'll be truthful. The only thing I contributed to this little Mexican fiesta was dicing the vegetables (which is a huge responsibility, might I add). Lindsay is a bad friend and lent me un-matching Christmas inspired socks. I mean, at least there was a consistent theme?


Feliz Navidad y'all.

19MarchThe Kylie Chronicles - Chapter One (0)


Meet Kylie. She is my dog and she's a freaking pain in my ass. I seriously mean that. She is about 4 years old yet she still eats everything in sight and gets into anything she can. Don't get me wrong, I love her to death, but she is the most stubborn and bitchy thing I have ever met. She has eaten/chewed up everything you can imagine (without being harmed in the process) including a pack of cigarettes, a bottle of insecticide, countless pairs of underwear, lipstick, 4 months worth of heartgard medicine, a box of tampons, a whole chocolate cake, etc... (you get the picture). She has a stomach of STEEL. I don't abuse or neglect my dog at all, but you never expect to leave the house thinking that your dog is going to jump on the counter and eat a whole bag of starburst candy. So, in this adventure I call "life with Kylie," I am going to document and post pictures of the crime scenes to which I come home to after Kylie has been exceptionally mischievous. Witness Exhibit A:


March 19, 2010 - Suspect accessed garbage can and transported evidence to living room floor for a field day. Take special note of black Jessica Simpson ballet flat in top right corner. This was moved by the suspect from the bathroom floor for God knows what reason. Shoe is still in tact.

Stay tuned for future crime scenes.

Kasey and I have grown rather fond of each other as roommates these past few months. With the exception of our week day schedules, we're all synced up. So it's come as no surprise that, as of today, the blonde fox has become the sick fox. We've got some pretty sexy sinus infections brewing.

We'll be inside tonight loading up on meds, vitamin C and Gossip Girl. We'll also be accepting chicken soup (for the next few days).

So, we all watch The Office. We all laugh at The Office. Sometimes we all quote The Office. And by "we" and "sometimes," I'm basically just talking about myself. Anyone that has ever had the amazing opportunity (ha) of meeting me, knows that I love love LOVE this show. What?- It's funny! For example: All time favorite quote:

Jim Halpert: Question. What kind of bear is best?
Dwight Schrute: That's a ridiculous question.
Jim Halpert: False. Black bear.
Dwight Schrute: That's debatable. There are basically two schools of thought--
Jim Halpert: Fact. Bears eat beets. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.
Dwight Schrute: Bears do not... What is going on?! What are you doing?!


And with that said.. I will further develop upon this tomorrow.

07MarchSea Loin Splash Show (3)

We went to the Central Florida Fair! We only rode a few rides though - the Spin Oyster, Fire Ball, the Zipper (I refused for fear of being puked on), and the Super Himalaya. We also took romantic ride on the Ferris Wheel thanks to Jason's carnie-bargaining powers. We were four tickets short. I am sad to report that we missed the Sea Loin Splash Show. Maybe next year. It was a delightful afternoon. Almost as delightful as the giant corn dogs we scooped up on our way out.

Alexander McQueen's funeral was today. He killed himself just a few weeks ago and was found hanging in his armoire. That has to be one of the worst ways to die, and single-handedly the worst way to find someone.

I've always loved his collections, and the way he portrayed the darkness in his life. They're unconventional and crazy.

A few years ago my friend Alex gave me a pair of Alexander McQueen Pumas. Their shaped more like your feet and less like normal sneakers. The red lines and stitching are meant to mimic the veins your feet. They're a little weird. I like them, but not sure they're really my style.



The New York Times published this great article about him. You should read it.

It's not very often I see a TV commercial that I really enjoy. DVR has trained us to fly through them without even batting an eye lash. However, there are the occasional few that cut through the clutter. While watching LOST with friends last week, I actually paused as one of the greatest commercials I've ever seen came on:


Old spice has always had interesting commercials, but this one simply blows the others' away. The talent and copywriting are perfect. A second, :15, spot was shown later in the episode and is equally as funny: Did you know?

So I got the shoes. This is the happiest I've been in my life, ever. I can't stop thinking about them. I love them. I'll probably have dreams tonight about them. And then I'll wake up tomorrow and put them on and walk around the house in them while still wearing my pajamas. And then study all day in them and then take them off and stare at them. I'll try them on Kylie and see how she likes them. Fuck, I love these shoes.

06FebruaryOMG Shoes (0)


It's been my life's goal for the past 3 years to get my hands on these ugly Balenciaga ankle boots. Ever since I laid my eyes on my idol, Mary-Kate Olsen, wearing these beauties back in 2006, I've wanted -- no, NEEDED to add them to my bootie collection. They're so goth and witchtastic. If only I had $1,800 laying around...


So today, upon further investigation, I came across a pretty decent knock-off by Sam Edelman. In no way do they compare to the Balenciagas, but they quickly grew on me after I learned that they were only $345. There might be a glimmer of hope.

This girl is amazing:

"A perfect daily day would be a Saturday. Watching a movie in bed in the morning, then making collages and a zine, then rehearsal for a play, then record shopping with a friend, then watching more movies, I guess. That is one I would like to happen a lot, like Groundhog Day. A perfect day that happens once would probably be a big get-together with my heroes and idols and favorite people, if I didn't faint."

Drool. Drool. Drooling still.. Ok, I'm done. You know what is absolutely horrible? The fact that I am so willing to drop two hundo on a pair of shoes that I'll probably wear a few times, considering they will most definitely go out of style by the end of April. However, just because I am salivating and completely aching at my very core to type in my card number, I WILL NOT. You see, I am trying to $ave in order to travel this summer, so I will resist temptation and keep my eye on the prize. The prize NOT being these cute Jeffrey Campbell shoes, but a nice cabin in the woods. OH, screw the trees. No, wait.. eye on the prize. Yup, from now on you can call me Completely in Control Christina. Has a nice ring to it- don't you think? ....Should we take bets on how long this will last?

"It also amuses me that in the presence of a gay man, a straight man might feel so uncomfortable because he’s suddenly the possible subject of someone’s sexual desire; something that women tend to suffer from all the time. Not all women feel as uncomfortable with it, but certainly, we’re encouraged to think it’s flattering when we’re gawked at and drooled over and objectified, rather than being creeped the fuck out by it. Of course, when the same thing might happened to a man, then they make a military law out of it."

Meet Tyson Bodiford. We have brought him into the fold, for he is truly one of a kind. Word on the street is that he cleans chimneys in exchange for unusually small hats and sexual favors. If we are the Blonde Fox, his house is the Bearded Grizzly. If he isn't having bro time, you can find him with the foxes. He works at BBQ Bar, or as we dubbed it, "The Cleub." Next time you're there, you should drop your beer bottles and spill your drinks on him... I heard he loves it.

Shake Shake Shake Senora, Shake your body line. I always thought the song said, "shake your body right." Seems more appropriate. Each and every one of his movies is dark and twisted, and yet, completely charming. I'm most excited to see what he does with Alice in Wonderland.

So, Lindsay has given me the task of keeping this blog up to date while her computer is being fixed. Apparently there was a situation where her Mac decided to take a shower. Showers are a great thing when dealing with friends like ours, however not ideal when electronics are involved. Anyways, while she is sorting all that out, I will be here to bring you all things beautiful. Now with that said, the weather down here (South Florida) has been anything but, and is actually quite dreadful. I stepped out this morning onto my dock and the wind tried to sucker punch me straight into the inter coastal. What was that about?! Who blew something up his ass? (ha, you like what I did there?) This kind of weather calls for two things: warm tea and music.

Christina Cosby Scott to be exact, otherwise I mostly go by "Tink." You can call me by whichever name you prefer, however I don't appreciate the Bill Cosby references. The reason being, well, they just aren't funny. I currently live in South Florida, but frequent to Orlando once a month to spend time with my wonderfully amazing blondes. I enjoy plants and classic movies. I'm a science major, thus a science geek. The things I find fascinating, bores others to death. I like keeping company with anyone that utilizes the "That's what she said" punchline. I appreciate a good book. I'm weird when it comes to textures and elongated eye contact. Hence, why I stay away from children. That's like their two favorite things in life: corduroy and staring contests.

Ok, so I know I'm not blonde. I am actually nowhere near to being blonde. My sister tried to bleach my hair when I was 12 but it ended up turning orange. I guess that's what happens when you're Asian and have curly, thick, black hair. I do, however, believe that I am blonde at heart. Anyone that knows me knows that I am obsessed with my dog, Kylie. She is my child and my absolute best friend. People that don't know me are usually afraid of me because I was born with a disease called "mean face syndrome." I know, it's unfortunate, but it helps weed out a lot of douchebags that try to talk to me at the cleub. I am obsessed with Sudoku and Scrabble, and try to play either or both at any free moment. That's probably all you need to know about me for now. Oh and I'm a SUPER creep.

That's me. I'm a true Florida girl. I like warm weather and tropical plants, even though I love cold weather clothes. I learned to swim before i could walk, turning my hair the faintest tint of green summer after summer. I love new stories and adventures. I do PR by day and bartend by night. I have a uniquely dry sense of humor, but often think everything is funny. I like to smile and giggle, and share meals with close friends. I have more shoes than I can count, and I never wear matching socks. What's the point? I absolutely hate cockroaches. I will stare at one for hours before getting the courage to kill it. Some small things are just really big in my world. I'm okay with that.

20JanuaryThe Blonde Fox (1)


A psychic once told me that 2008 would begin a year of many changes. She told me I would find a job in writing and I'd get into a serious relationship. She told me to be careful and warned me that a close friend wasn't really a friend at all. She told me that I would make "ok" money in 2008, but "really good" money in 2009. Lastly, and with much reassurance, she told me I would be safe and healthy, and my family would be too.

The idea of seeing a psychic has always been hoaxy to me, but let's be honest, who hasn't been intrigued by the idea of a fortune teller at least once in their lifetime. I believed nothing she said and I continued living my life. Little did I realize that the things she told me started coming true. Was it because this women was right? Did she have that power or was it because I subconsciously made them come true? The truth isn't important here. The important part is that they all happened.

Here we are, two years later. I work in Public Relations. I was in (and out of) a serious relationship. I lost one of my best friends (and made amazing new ones), and I saved some money. What was next? Buy an amazingly cute brand new Mini Cooper or buy a house?

I began looking for a house. I wanted something quaint and full of character. After being a complete pain in the ass to my lovely realtor, and friend, I found the perfect spot. It even had a pool.


After spending nearly every weekend throughout the summer at Orlando's Red Fox Lounge and pool, a good friend deemed the new place, "The Blonde Fox." In time, you'll get to know each of the blondes (and brunettes, too).

Lindsay
