Okkkkaaaaay, here we go: the first time I was ever drunk - Halloween Party my freshman year. Even though I ended up sleeping in the bathroom, it was totally worth it.

mellow - Music:Watching Undeclared
Since my beloved Studio 60 is now in limbo, possibly never to come back, I've picked up Heroes! I'm now completely caught up and dying for next week. I'm having a little trouble with those rumors about the Milo/Alexis Bledel possibly abusive relationship...I'm sure there's some kind of explanation! He's just TOO cute.
Anyways. That's all for now. I promise that I will feel inspired to write something longer than a paragraph later this week.

If I were a stronger person, I'd be braving the weather to do some drinking. Instead, I am cozied up in my 'Boken living room, watching Alexis Bledel dancing in a forest. (BTdubs, I cannot WAIT to get my hands on the fourth Sisterhood book...are they making another movie?) Anyway, I'm way too happy to be here. It's going to be a crazy week.
Let's talk about the Globes, shall we? The whole Dreamgirls obsession is so...boring. As much as I love musicals, I'm just not interested in seeing it. But America Ferrera is all kinds of adorable, and my Office peeps looked like they were having a good time, so everything's straight.
And speaking of that,The Office just gets better and BETTER. I have to watch every episode at least twice to absorb most of the jokes. And even then, I don't pick up them all. Por ejemplo, I didn't notice until I read the EW recap on Friday that when Michael came to get Dwight at Staples and bring him back to good ol' Dunder Mifflin, the Muzak version of "Love Lift Us Up Where We Belong" was playing in the store. A nod to the end of An Officer and a GentlemanSpring Awakening. At the very least, check out the very free podcast on ITunes. Or just download the song, "Touch Me" and you'll understand a tiny piece of my new obsession.

Bradley Whitford is sexy in that he was your sixth grade math teacher and he was cool and smart and kinda funny, and it was your first boy/girl thing but you didn't really know it yet? Anyone? Not that I had that math teacher. I went to a Catholic school, and while all our teachers weren't nuns, they were all women.
Anyway, I'm dying that there wasn't a new Studio 60 last night, and that next week is a rerun of last week's. In a fit of despair, I added the first season of The West Wing to my Netflix queue today.
Tomorrow is 2nd on 2nd karaoke with some of the BEST IN TOWN. Cannot wait.

I've started takine a free online "Fear of Flying" course writen by someone with the ridiculously fake-sounding name of Captain Stacy L. Chance. Being that I already start to hyperventilate just thinking about getting onto the plane next Friday, I really hope this works. Either that, or I'll drug the hell out of myself.
- Mood:
scared - Music:Morning News
I'm still coming down from pretty much the best weekend of my life. Back with all the besties at PSU for a whole 2 and a half days. Saloon, , Deli, Gaff, Brewery, not to mention the Waffle Shop. Friday night was like magic - a perfect night at the Saloon with Velveeta, Monkeyboys, free fries, and patriot song sing-a-longs! The dream almost died when we got to the Saloon at our deadline - 5:55 and the doors were LOCKED. Locked!!! What is that?? We stood outside in the cold for a good 15 minutes before one of those wonderful Saloon bouncers finally came to let us in. He claimed he wasn't charging us cover because he didn't have change, but some of us had perfect change AND he charged the people who came in behind us. New best friend. The Monkeyboys weren't as flavorful as I would have liked, but no matter.
I'm trying to detox now from all the food and alcohol. I drink 4 huge bottles of water and had a big salad for lunch today. Now if I could just get to the gym.
It's just about time for one of my Monday night TV loves: How I Met Your Mother. Hilarious, plus, I would pretty much do all of the guys on this show. WHAT?? It's a rerun. As much as I love it and would watch it again, I haven't watched last week's Grey's yet.
Also on my raydar today: George Clooney's 18 year old arthritic and half blind pig died!! So sad. Not to mention - Adam Brody and Rachel Bilson are DUNZO. She can do better I think. She's cute and he's vaguely annoying. She should get with Ryan Atwood. He's always been the hotter one.
What's up George O'Malley?? You're way cuter than Torres. Dump her.

This is creepy - just watch the first 2 minutes.
And let's relive a favorite Britney moment:
Notice pre-Entourage Adrien Grenier.

RIP Marissa Cooper After all that fantastic acting, I have to say that your untimely death is totally worth it - I get to watch HottorturedRyan go after Volchek in all his wifebeater glory. I know this show has sucked for oh, about the past 2 years, but I'm not letting it go.

First thing's first - there's just no way to get gracefully onto this topic:
http://www.tmz.com/2006/10/30/reese-wit herspoon-and-ryan-phillippe-split/
What?? WAHT?!?? I mean, not that I'm not thrilled the man is back on the market, but really. She's cute, he's cuter; he's blonde, she's blonder. They were perfect. First Brad and Jen (not to mention Brad and Gwenyth - that one hit me just as hard), now this. The fun part of it is imagine who they'll date next - how about Reese and Topher Grace? I know he's jailbait, but cute, right? And maybe Ryan and......me. He will always remind me of a time when the supplies for every slumber party included Cruel Intentions, 54, and some crappy scary movie (Carnival of Souls, anyone? How about The Dentist 2?) Oh, 54, I may need to Netflix you again (or buy you at Walmart for $5.99.) "I said, 'NOT with that shirt.'"
It'll officially be Halloween in about half an hour - woo! It's my favorite holiday. I thought about watching a scary movie tonight, but then realized that I would never sleep again. I'm a baby. More now than I was. (I got through Canival of Souls! It starred Larry Miller - no joke.) Saturday was Angel and Nello's Halloween party - it's gotta be something good to get me to Astoria, and I was not disappointed. I'll be posting some pictures soon, once I get my shitty disposable camera developed. I'll just let them speak for themselves.
I'm in the middle of season 3 of Newsradio, which is one of my favorite (and one of the most underrated) tv shows of all time. Let's all go back to a time before Joe Rogan was getting into fights on myspace, before Andy Dick was a cokehead pervert, and before Phil Hartman...well, let's not talk about that. Anyways, Scotland, PA convinced me that Maura Tierney is an amazing actress, but I first loved her here. It's a shame she's stuck in the black hole of the 27th season of ER right now. There aren't many actresses who can do drama AND comedy that well. And WHAT ever happened to Vicki Lewis?? (I HATED that people used to compare her to Kathy Griffin - she was so much cuter and funnier.) I also clearly had a crush on Dave Foley - not new, Celebrity Poker Dave Foley, with the grey, and the beard, and the pudgy, but Kids in the Hall Dave Foley, who looked like he was 12. I was 12 at the time as well, so I guess that's okay. Anyways, it's seriously the most well-written 90s sitcom with the best physical comedy since I Love Lucy. Okay, end of love letter. Just rent it and transport yourself to a time before Two and Half Men existed.

Why? Why, when you sit beside a man on the train does he not lessen the 10-ft void between his two knees even a smidgen?? As if his balls are just soooooooo huge, he has to keep his stupid thigh on top of yours? And by yours, I mean mine.
Just an FYI guys.

My return to LJ is inspired not only by unmitigated boredom, which has reduced me to watching The Mermaid Chair on Lifetime last night and Au Pair on ABCFam tonight, but also by the return of sexy. Thanks JT.
Despite having a half-day Friday and no work on Labor Day Monday, I still managed to work a 37.5 hour week. Ugh. I love closing down the MTC at night AND opening it back up in the morning. No, seriously, I love it.
Should I buy these shoes? http://www.amazon.com/Keds-Women-Champi on-Distressed-Sneaker/dp/B000ER1QLG/sr=1-5/q id=1157933402/ref=sr_1_5/102-3820855-207 7715?ie=UTF8&s=apparel
On the "less than 2 weeks till Laura's wedding" diet. I will get my ass to the gym every day between now and September 23rd if it kills me. If I could work myself up for a 2 week eating disorder, that would be cool. Kidding! Don't do drugs.
Things I'm looking forward to next week: Getting my The Office Severance Package from Best Buy on Tuesday and Fred Flare sample sale on Saturday.
For guys who say they don't understand girls, this is ALL you need to know: Grab and Kiss.

beck346: i want to be a surfer girl
beck346: but i don't want to surf
beck346: i would hate getting water up my nose
sagey99: totally
I finished rereading The Cider House Rules again last night. No matter how heartbreaking it is, it always makes me feel better. Maybe because I'm not a 90 year old abortion doctor in Maine in the 1940s. Maybe.
Page 213: “When Homer Wells saw the stationmaster’s brain stem exposed, he felt that Dr. Larch was busy enough – with both hands – for it to be safe to say what Homer wanted to say.
‘I love you,’ said Homer Wells. He knew he had to leave the room, then – while he could still see the door – and so he started to leave.
‘I love you too, Homer,’ said Wilbur Larch, who for another minute or more could not have seen a blood clot in the brain stem if there had been one to see. He heard Homer say ‘Right’ before he heard the door close.
In a while, he could make out the brain stem clearly, there was no clot.
‘Arrhythmia,’ Wilbur Larch repeated to himself. Then he added, ‘Right,’ as if he were now speaking for Homer Wells. Dr. Larch put his instruments aside; he gripped the operating table for a long time.”
Last thing's last...I love my ringtone.

What up, Lance?
Not that I'm shocked here - but is it weird to say that I'm proud of you? Can you hook up with Randy Harrison? Did Topanga know?

Things I'm obsessed with right now: Project Runway (especially Kayne and Robert. HATE Keith.), Stephen Lynch (especially "She Gotta Smile" and "Lullabye"), and "The Historian (even though I can't read it right before bed).
