Been Smoking the Purple Crack
I think it was me.
Gosh. I haven't talked about
the purple crack in years. Since my first Disney College Program.
I got it from my roommates, for whenever somebody was seriously over the
top. The purple crack is the most dangerous color.
I was in SUCH a good mood today.
I can't really explain it. I've never been happy on a Monday morning.
I resent my alarm clock too much. But today, smiling a mile wide.
Weird. I guess maybe some of it could be attributed to the fact that
I was listening to Fantasmic on the way to work. It makes me happy.
It's like watching the show in my brain. But I was in a good mood
all day, it was weird.
Especially since last week I was
angry at Wednesday. Just for being Wednesday. I woke up and
I was like, "Damn it, Wednesday! Why aren't you Thursday?!?
I am so sick of the first half of this week!"
Who said "bi-polar"? That's
not nice. Shut up.
Anyway, Grey's Anatomy last night
was just too rough. The George/Meredith sex scene was just too traumatic.
I'm still upset.
However, I'm taking some motivation
from Barney on How I Met Your Mother: "I'm out in the world, being
awesome 24/7/365." I think it's a good goal. Awesome, 24/7.
Pride & Prejudice comes out on
DVD tomorrow. Jen is all a-flutter.

My Boss: "Hey there, girlie
girl. I just wanted to give you a hug. I haven't hugged you
in a while."
What?? So I just let her.
I smell faintly of Tussin.
I think at this point it's actually coming out of my pores. I'm not
even taking the maximum dosage. I only took it twice today.
Jen's too weird. She watched
the super awesome two-part Grey's Anatomy and then didn't watch the show
anymore. Which means she missed this FANTASTIC speech from George
to Meredith:
| "I know I'm not a world renowned
surgeon. And I know I'm not a lot of things that you've gone for in the
past...I know. But...I would never leave you. I would never hurt you. And
I will never stop loving you." |
Then she took his shirt off.
So we're going to watch the whole
first season marathon style to get her ready to be a full-time GA fan.
Once I buy it of course.

to T. R. Knight
Hey.
Wanna make out?

I LOVE
George. Meredith is going to hurt him, and he doesn't deserve it.
And if anybody was confused by my use of the word squidgy before--George
is squidgy incarnate.

| Of Course
You Know, This Means War
I'm fighting a cold. Meet the
BATTLE SQUAD:
The power-c label used to be funnier.
It used to say:
| Despite having the word "dragon"
in its name, no actual dragons were harmed in the making of this product.
However, with 250% of the RDI of vitamin C inside, the fruit wasn't so
lucky. With that said, we'd also like to inform some of you that dragons
are actually imaginary. That means they don't exist. So, will you please,
please, pleeease stop sending us nasty letters. Thank you. |
I currently contain 1000% of the
Recommended Daily Intake of Vitamin C. That is not a typo.
ONE THOUSAND PERCENT. I bought all that Walgreens had in the case.
And two bottles of Tussin--one for work, one for home (it was buy one get
one).

| I am The Champion
1 round of Harry Potter Scene-It.
2 rounds of Disney Scene-It.
3 victories for Kim.
I. Am. AWESOME.
At. Subjects. On. Which. I. Am. Dorky.
Katie had a chance with Harry Potter,
but I think she just played Disney Scene It to indulge me. It was
harder than I expected. I don't know much about those old live action
Disney movies. I don't know the name of the kid in Old Yeller!!
Speaking of dorky, saw an awesome
license plate on the way to church today, it was Goonies: 1I-WILY
translated
in black, highlight to read: [One-Eyed
Willie]. Which is pretty cool
(see my
t-shirt at the top of the page), but I didn't enjoy
it as much as the Star Wars one I saw a year ago: OBEE1, but that's
just because of the Ewan connection.

| I Think I'm
Horrified
I saw a commercial today for a movie
called "She's the Man"--it's Twelfth Night set in high school with Amanda
Bynes as Viola/Sebastian. And they've decided to call the guy she's
in love with Duke. That's a shame. Orsino is one of those really
good Shakespeare names. I don't know what to think of this movie.
I like Twelfth Night, I like 10 Things I Hate About You, but I HATE this
title. At least 10 Things SOUNDS like Taming of the Shrew.
I finally made it in to work yesterday.
I tried on Thursday, but ended up having to call in from the parking lot.
Everybody was very sweet to me on Friday--although I guess that's what
you'd expect from an office full of counselors.
I took a "Who is your ideal Sex &
the City guy?" quiz. I got Aidan--he's the best one.

| I Can Call
Him a Flower if I Want To
Jen came over to lend moral support,
watch Gilmore Girls and eat ice cream. Then we took a quiz:
Jen was Winnie the Pooh.
Today was my grandpa's funeral.
He had a full Marine honor guard salute--and a police escort for the procession,
once we got into the city. It was very cool. Today I finally
started to feel closer to normal. It's more of a blank feeling than
good, but it's infinitely better than before.

pet my hair and whisper against my neck until I fall asleep.
(2.) To not want that.

The following people know what's
up with me. Call them if you need to know: My mom, Jen, Kevin,
Karen, Tim, Rachel.

| Things Change.
Don't expect any updates for a few
days.
This is You: "I Love to
Dance."
It's been a crazy freak out dance
party at my condo all weekend. I've had music playing all weekend,
and an uncontrollable urge to shake my booty. I don't think I'm backlit,
so no impromptu iPod commercials for the neighbors.
I do wonder if the pizza guy could
tell what I was doing while I was on the phone. It's hard to talk
on the phone when you're jumping around like a crazy person--but I don't
think it changed my voice. It was not my fault, it was the Ramones.
I was "all
revved up and ready to go."
Thanks to the people who tried out
the comments. The problem with the read comments link was a typo--totally
my fault. However, until someone leaves a comment, I do believe that
link will go to an error screen even when formatted properly.
Feeling sorry for myself on Friday
night, listening to Peter Salett's "Heart
of Mine" (lyrics are now all linked--suggestive or not--as a concession
to my father), but my Lisa called me up and got me out of my funk. (Note
to Lisa: It's a CLYDESDALE)
Should I send Lisa my resume to see
if she can get me in the running for a job at her company in Buffalo?
Weird to imagine moving to Buffalo. Although, as the job is with
an up-and-coming design company, I can easily see that being one of those
jobs I would love enough to not go back to school, and I don't want that
right now. I really want my MBA.
Much thanks to all the people who
gave me the "hey, why aren't you posting, my life is incomplete without
you" comments in the last few days. I love you too, babies.
And I will make an effort, I've just been out of it this week.
Saw Nanny McPhee on Wednesday with
Jen. Very very cute movie. Very sweet. Emma Thompson
WROTE it. Colin Firth walks that line between looking adorable and
looking old, but still very good. PLUS, we got free popcorn &
soda. Hooray for being a MovieWatcher.
It's Katrina
and the Waves, I gotta go.
Ahh. That was fun. This
is what goes on in my head when I hear that song:
| Barry:
OK,
buddy, uh, I was just tryin' to cheer us up so go ahead. Put on some old
sad bastard music, see if I care.
Rob: I
don't wanna hear old sad bastard music, Barry, I just want something I
can ignore.
Barry: Here's
the thing. I made that tape special for today. My special Monday morning
tape for *you*... special.
Rob: Well,
it's fuckin' Monday afternoon! You should get out of bed earlier!

| Ever So Elegant
Today at lunch I managed to get soup
& salad dressing on my pants. Thank heavens I chose dark pants
today. I also managed to lose control of my fork which bounced in
my soup and landed in the salad.
Please try out the new comments I
set up, and let me know what you think. If everybody hates it, I'll
try to find something new.

| iPod Loves
Ben
I think my iPod is in love with Ben
Folds. A couple of weeks ago, I was driving to meet Gretchen for
breakfast, and shuffle came up with FOUR Ben Folds songs in a row.
Okay, that could just be a coincidence.
I was trying to make some room on
my iPod, so I decided not to keep more than one version of a song by the
same artist, so I took off most of the tracks from Ben Folds Live.
IPod put them back--on it's own.
It makes me nervous about going to
sleep with it over my head.
Completely unrelated: Baby
Grant has the best laugh ever. He's not even two yet, but he has
this huge belly laugh that comes all the way from his toes.
Okay, so I'm trying something new.
The comments are now being hosted by livejournal, which I chose because
I like it's ability to reply to comments as well as the ability to show
your own little icon. It might take me a couple of days to get everything
set up properly, so please bear with me. This should get rid of all
the poop comments.

| I Do Believe
in Fairies, I Do, I Do!
Tink is sick. I think she may
be dying.
Tink is my laptop. It keeps
switching over to battery power, even when it's plugged in, and I have
to mess with the cord to find the particular arrangement that will let
it run off AC power--right now, I've got the cord hooked over the corner
of the monitor, and it's on the floor so I don't jostle it. Also,
Tink has decided that CDs are for suckers, and she will not read them.
I put a CD in the CD/DVD drive and it says the drive is empty, but DVDs
play fine.
Speaking of DVDs, I preordered Harry
Potter and the Goblet of Fire today. I fell prey to a deal from Columbia
House:
And in further Degrassi news: RINGTONES.
Awesome.
Plus, today I watched Degrassi's
awesome Breakfast Club Spoof:
Sean's our Bender. In detention for EIGHT WEEKS for anti-social behavior. |
Ellie's playing the Ally Sheedy role, only she's there undercover as a
reporter. |
Hazel is the Pampered Princess (Clare) and she's in for checking out internet
porn on a school computer. Oops. |
Toby, clearly the nerd, is in for hacking into the school computers to
change grades for... |
Jimmy, the jock. |
They even had the principal in the
same suit as in The Breakfast Club, and gave them virtually the same speech
at the beginning.
|
| Sean's Back!
(And Phil, too)
I heard the most exciting news on
The N last night--Sean's coming back to Degrassi. I'm excessively
thrilled. He was my favorite Degrassi boy and they wrote him off.
See, he was trying to stop the guy
who was going around the school with a gun, and he blames himself for Crazy
Shooter's death (he was wrestling the gun away and it went off), so Sean
had to go live with his crazy parents and get himself back together.
Plus, I found out that he's the older brother of one of the Blake Holsey
kids (the blond one on the right),
further confirming my theory on the shockingly limited pool of child actors
in Canada. I think he's just back for the little "webisodes" but
that's better than nothing.
Also, I heard that they picked a
girl to play Tonks in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, it's the
girl who played Ellie in About a Boy. So, apparently, she only takes
roles where she talks about butts:
| Ellie:
Not so fast. I'm not ready for physical contact. Next thing
you know we'll be having sex. And where will that get us? Stop
telling strangers to shake their arse.
Tonks:
Who d'you know who's lost a buttock?
Tonks:
Wand still in your jeans? Both buttocks still on?
|
And, since Punxatawny Phil saw his
shadow, we're all going to need some cheering up, so here are the Groundhog
Day quotes:
| Watch out for that first step, it's
a doozy.
Pastry Larry?
Hey, Phil, if we wanted to hit mailboxes,
we coulda let Ralph drive
This is one of the times where television
really fails to capture the true excitement of a large squirrel predicting
the weather.
I don't know, Phil. Perhaps
it's that giant blizzard we're NOT supposed to get.
Ned! ...Ryerson! "Needlenose Ned"?
"Ned the Head"? C'mon, buddy! Case Western High! I did the whistling belly-button
trick at the high school talent show? Bing! Ned Ryerson, got the shingles
REAL bad senior year, almost didn't graduate? Bing, again! Ned Ryerson,
I dated your sister Mary Pat a couple of times until you told me not to
anymore? Well?
C'mon. All the long distance
lines are down. What about the satellite? Is it snowing in
space? Don't you have some kind of a line you keep open for emergencies,
or for celebrities? I'm both. I'm a celebrity in an emergency.
Yeah. They're hicks, Rita.
-Okay, campers, rise and shine, and
don't forget your booties, 'cause it's COLD out there today.
-It's cold out there everyday.
What is this, Miami Beach?
-Not hardly!
What if there is no tomorrow?
There wasn't one today!
Too early for flapjacks?
PHIL? Like the groundhog, Phil?
It's the same thing your whole life:
clean up your room, stand up straight, pick up your feet, take it like
a man, be nice to your sister, don't mix beer and wine, EVER. Oh
yeah, don't drive on the railroad tracks!
-I like to see a man of advancing
years throwing caution to the wind. It's inspiring in a way.
-My years are not advancing as fast
as you may think.
Don't drive angry!
He might be okay. Well, no,
probably not now.
I'm A god. I'm not THE
god... I don't think.
Gosh! You're an upbeat lady!
It's okay. You can go to sleep.
I promise I won't touch you... much.
Yes, but my father was a piano MOVER.
What do you say? What do you say?
You little brat. You have never thanked me. I'll see you tomorrow...
maybe. |
