Goulet

Do we have to worry about him messing with our stuff now?

I feel kind of bad, however this was my first thought when I heard he was sick and then he indeed passed away today. Rest in peace Robert Goulet.

Lost scene from HSM 2

I stole this word for word from ONTD- It's awesome!

This is a deleted scene that will be on the High School Musial 2 DVD, and was partially leaked last month, but has never been seen in its entirety. For some reason, it was included in the Belgian airing of the movie this past weekend (hence the subtitles).

Images from this weekend with the girls

This weekend I took a lot of movies of the girls. I also figured out how to take pictures of video images. Here are some cute ones. The quality isn't wonderful, but oh well.

I really wanted to go to

The Office Convention this last weekend in Scranton. Maybe next year? sigh

Poor Guillermo

He is so cute.

I'm scared of this clown!!

I've seen this picture everywhere and had no desire to find out who it was until I saw the second picture and then I realized who it was. If you don't know then you may not be a big fan of How I Met Your Mother. His costume is (wait for it) legendary. The guy he's with may have to go see a teenage doctor. Do you give up? Answer is below.












It's NPH. Neil Patrick Harris for those not in the know.

Into the Wild- my college paper

Yes, I'm five kinds of lame, I'm putting up my paper I did for Into the Wild back in 2000. It is so strange because when I read the book I was a completely different person than I am now, however I still feel some of the same feelings that I did then. I went to the movie with my mother on Sunday in Brookings. Scenes take place in South Dakota, Carthage to be exact, so there were lots of people interested in it. I truthfully haven't read the book again since 2000, and I gave it to someone and never got it back. I may have to check it out and re-read it to see how my opinion's changed. That is what I love about books, every time you read a story you appreciate it in a different way. Anyway, if anyone wants to read my thoughts on the story when I was 21 (or was it 22?) then have at it. I believe if you click it will make it larger (that's what she said- sorry I couldn't resist). Yes- it still has my grammar corrections and grade.

Plus- if you call 692-4412 by this Thursday and wait you'll hear the actor Emile Hirsch be pronounced Emily by the local time announcer- haha!

Why, oh why do I watch 'zombie' movies?

Because it scares the shit out of me and I love them. I watched 28 Weeks Later tonight at my parents' house. I am in town to hang with the nieces because I won't see them on Wednesday (unless I change my mind and still come up) or next weekend (I'm not coming up). Before I left SF I went and picked up two movies that were waiting for me at the library, the one mentioned already and Transformers. I may watch that tomorrow at home. Anyway back to the zombie movies. I get into a phase where I want to watch them and then for the next couple days every time I go outside and it is quiet I get really freaked out. I had to go out to my car at 1 AM and it was quiet (duh it's late) and I could see everything because the moon is bright- I was still scared. The verdict- I liked the movie- much more Americanized than the original 28 Days Later. I might have to watch Dawn of the Dead soon, and yes it will be the new one because I liked it (so shove it! horror movie snobs!)

I was thinking about going to Into the Wild tomorrow during a matinee. I'm still curious to see how it was brought to the big screen. We'll see- I'll probably just do Halloween kind of stuff with the girls.

Here's the 28 Weeks Later trailer if you are interested

Totally inappropriate and slightly topical Harry Potter videos

Henry knows her

Oh I love him.

Ugly Betty - I'm Not That Girl

Yes, I'm turning into a super Betty geek. I love this song so much and I like it- so there.

Ugly Betty - 'Brighter, Bolder, Bettyer' Making The Promo

Love this cast!

Ugly Betty - 'Brighter, Bolder, Bettyer' Promo

I love this show- it just makes me happy. Darn Thursday for being so good.

Pepa got her face 'did'

So there is this show on VH1 The Salt N Pepa Show. Obviously it's about the female group from the eighties and nineties. Well, I saw this on ONTD awhile ago and someone put up the links to the upcoming shows. The first episode her nose was like it used to be, but the girl must have got her face torn up between that and the rest because she looks basically nothing like the old her.

Check it out




Well it isn't showing it, but here is the link

It's official. I love Ugly Betty

About three weeks ago I got season 1 and I finished watching it today. After that I was messing around on the computer and looked on ABC to see if they offered up any episodes. I have yet to watch anything on ABC's site so I didn't know...

Anyway, I have watched the first two episodes and I will soon be up to date on my Betty watching. I really don't know what is my favorite part of the show. Alright that's not true... it's Marc, then Amanda (especially when they are together). Next it's Wilhelmina and Marc, and then (of course) Justin. I have a total crush on Henry (which is why he was cast in that part- who doesn't love him).

I love having a new show crush- I'm totally not sharing it with anyone. Well, except for this blog...

And finally a scene that I love watching over and over



Best Marc moments- usually with Amanda

Yes- I'm actually posting images of my futon

So sue me! I'm proud I did it by myself.

Plus- please excuse the mess in the background. It's kind of crazy. Hella already loves snuggling on the futon mattress so I know it's going to be covered in cat hair daily- fun!

I tried to post this about three hours ago and the blogger wasn't working. Hella has been practically glued to the middle of the futon ever since.

Dancing with the stars- cute video

I just saw this on another blog and it actually is very cute. My mom loves this show and I quite frankly have watched little snippets. I just love how they all have their own dolls.

I'm Just Crazy Doing the Futon Dance

About thirty minutes ago I finished putting together my new sofa (I agree with Michael Scott!!) and I think I actually did it correctly. Intellectually I know that you've seen one futon you've seen them all. Of course, it's not a crappy black metal frame, it's 'fancy' wood with magazine holders on the arm. I'm a little in love with it right now. I have been used to second hand sofas/couches for so long that I'm pumped to have something new.

Anyway...

I have been up since around 7:45 AM and going nonstop shopping from 9 AM until 9 PM. My mom came up last night and we went to Hairspray and then this morning we started off at the Expo for Her. We went last year and it was about double the crowd from last year. Plus- there weren't any free monster coffees like last year. Boo! My mom sampled quite a few wines, I probably only had half the amount she did. We then went shopping at thrift stores, Target, Hobby Lobby, ate lunch at Panera Bread, went to Shopko, and eventually went to Denny's for supper. It was a crazy long day. I only have two more episodes to go to finish season one of Ugly Betty. Then on to Freaks and Geeks.

I should be in bed. I'm actually really tired, and that is strange for me at only 1 AM!

Creed!

So I know that one clip on You Tube has been shown everywhere of The Grass Roots when Creed Bratton was in the group. If you don't know who Creed is you don't watch The Office and I have no time for you. Anyway I'm putting up a different video and the other video(except this one is in color and better than the other one I've been seeing). I still have to watch tonight's episode and I'm getting ready to watch all my NBC shows right now.





More information on Creed Bratton on CreedBratton.com
And here is the best of Creed from The Office

Judd Apatow on Funnyordie.com

I just saw this on BWE. I am on a Apatow kick lately, so I'm excited to see what he is going to do on the site.

Why I don't like Oprah.

Back in the late 80s and early 90s I was all about loving Oprah. But then she got really really rich and really really out of touch with reality. I just saw this post and had to share it. The story is:

Jessica Seinfeld appeared on Oprah last week to promote her cookbook "Deceptively Delicious" and one week later it is a national best-seller. Today, her husband Jerry is in the interview seat to promote his upcoming animated feature "Bee Movie," in which Oprah voices a judge. With Jessica in the front row, Oprah, walnut-sized diamonds dripping from her ears, told the audience what Jessica had sent to her instead of a note thanking her for last week's appearance. Shoes.

Jessica sent Oprah 21 pairs of shoes. From the shot that goes across the screen, the majority were Christian Louboutin kicks, which retail for $800-$1200 a pair. Just a $16,000-$20,000 thank you, from one multi-millionaire couple to their billionaire friend.

Is Heroes slowly making it's way back into my heart?

This last Saturday I almost got into a fist fight with my my sister and niece about the quality of Heroes this season. I probably was laying it on a little thick about how crappy it is. I said I was going to give the show three more episodes and if it sucked then I was considering saying goodbye. I actually enjoyed tonight's episode 'The Kindness of Strangers'. It's giving a little more insight to the characters and it isn't the same old shit. I mean I love Milo, but his current setting is leaving me cold. And Hiro, everybody knows where that is leading- just get to the point...

I was excited to see Micah without his mother. I am excited to see new characters and powers. Except for the Mexican twins, that doesn't interest me...

I just fixed my time on my computer so now my shows won't be cut off two minutes too early.

Two cute guys went to a hockey match

Thank god there aren't any penises or drugs drawn on their faces. I got this from Perez Hilton's site, but I couldn't resist putting it up.

The are attending a Bruins hockey match and were even accompanied by Steve Carrell(who is not shown).

I wouldn't mind checking out sports if I could sit between these two!

How I Met Your Mother ad

I just saw this on my Live Journal friends page. I think it was done for this season, and it is so cute. Since we are looking at Jason Segal I should mention that I went to Last Stop CD Shop today. I was looking for Freaks and Geeks and as I was going up to pay for it the clerk showed me that he was just prepping Undeclared. I almost didn't get it and then changed my mind. Anyway, I still have half a season of Ugly Betty to finish. So I should be set with entertainment for quite some time.

A Tale of Two Pretty Boys

I have heard a lot of people saying that Zac Efron looked like Jared Leto and I saw a slight resemblance. But I am officially swayed...

Please Lord don't let him have a Jared Leto career.

Here is a boring post

Wednesday I went to the main branch of SF library and got some things. I swear every time I get a CD there is smells like nasty BO. I really hate going in there because it stinks. I know I'm not being PC about it either, because the stinky people are probably homeless- but gross...

Tonight I had to type some things up so I did a marathon of Bridezilla. Something that makes my stomach turn is the product placement of NV a weight loss pill. I almost dismissed it for the first episode, but then blammo the next one made me puke a little in my mouth. A crazy bride even said to give her an NV pill so she would calm down. Huh? Since when did it relieve anxiety?

Anyway, tomorrow is a field trip for my group of three year olds. We'll see how that goes.

The John Krasinski picture was put on just because he is cute and I wanted a picture on the post. Strange.... yes, I know I am!

I kind of like Jamie Lynn Spears

Britney is ugh... but I love how her sister stood up for her against some random woman yelling at her. I am all about standing up for family members. If somebody says something rude about my family to me I almost go ghetto on their asses.
If you haven't seen this encounter yet you should check out the video on TMZ. I think it happened on Sunday?

A beautiful fall weekend

This last weekend I went up to Brookings and got to pal around with the girls. We went to the pumpkin patch and got some pumpkins and hung out at McCrory Gardens where we found a couple of beautiful fall trees. I just love the colors of autumn. I especially liked my mom's picture. I took a lot of pictures, however I am saving some for the family blog and since this blog is primarily looked at by family members I thought I would save something for the other blog.

I had a great time on Saturday and was sad to return to SF. I had a babysitting job on Sunday for a family that goes to my center. They went to Elton John's concert and I had my first babysitting job since I was in college. Of course, they didn't have Direct TV when I was in college.

I have already made a decision that I am going to get a bigger television for myself after Christmas. My biggest screen is still pretty dinky and--- lets face it I watch a lot of TV. I am thinking of getting a Philips because I like everything that I have got that is from that company. Anyway... I'm constantly checking out televisions online and in stores. I am notorious for not having patience so we will see how long I put it off...

I should be getting ready for bed since i need to be at work at 8:30 AM

Pushing Daisies Episode 1

I know that all the people who saw the pilot raved about this show, but I was still reserving my excitement. Well that's no longer happening. I officially am excited. I mean hello Ned (Lee Pace) is handsome and Ellen Greene is in it! And thank god she looks better than she did as Sylar's mom. If that wasn't enough it has Kristin Chenoweth- who is refreshing. I also like Swoozie Kurtz so-- bonus! I taped it on Friday, but I have decided to replace America's Next Top Model with it. It is twisted and I adore it. It definitely is Big Fishish as far as the way it looks and feels.

Do I smell a new favorite show? Perhaps....

Akward silences

I just saw this on BWE (I haven't gone to that blog in a long time). It's about The Wonder Years and the fact that without the narration added over basically the characters spend a lot of time just staring at each other in silence. There I just completely gave the whole clip away- just watch it!

I have to work at 6:30 AM, why am I still up?

Seriously....

She must have made a deal with the devil. Even plastic surgery can't be that good.

Michelle is promoting Stardust overseas.

And Hairspray is at the cheap theatre starting this Friday! I've only seen it twice so far.
Amber those moves are far too dirty!

What I bought yesterday...

I just innocently went into Last Stop CD Shop last night and I before I knew it I was walking out having spent almost fifty dollars. I got Ugly Betty for $25 and Fraggle Rock Season 1 for $20. Insanity, that is exactly what that is....

I had only watched about half an episode of Ugly Betty because I don't have one of those fancy DVR that can record two shows at once. I watched the first episode last night and it is nice to have a different show to watch. Fraggle Rock was pure impulse. I think I will watch it with Samantha I think she will appreciate it.

She's turning four on Sunday! I can't believe she is that old already. I have Monday off next week and I'm going to have to pick her up for some fun.

I'm a little distracted because I'm watching the latest episode of South Park. They used Tourette's as an excuse to swear. I enjoyed it. And now for The Sarah Silverman Program- my very very nasty secret pleasure.

Have I ever mentioned that I hate Grey's Anatomy?

Well I do, I really really do. I really dislike everything about. The character Meredith- ugh. What they did to Patrick Dempsey...

I watched it the first season, every once and awhile, and I realized then that it was a cheap,crappy, pale imitation of ER. Private Practice thus is added to the 'no way will I watch it' list. Even the threat of missing out on Taye Diggs can not change it. Well, I am checking out Dirty Sexy Money and right in front of the episode tonight was a preview for next week's episode and I will quote some of the phrases that were mentioned:

'My hoo haw is broken' (is that how you would spell it? I call it vagina)

'This is not a dirty little joke that you can make your dirty little jokes about.' (I kid you not)

Wow- what a piece of shit show if those are your big lines to draw in the audience.

Why do people like these shows??? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Trailer for Futurama movie

Have I ever mentioned how I love Futurama? If not, then please allow me to let you know now.

Aliens in America

What made me start watching this show tonight. The fact that Lu... I mean Scott Patterson is starring in it. I have only watched about ten minutes of it so far, but it's darn good. It is very reminiscent of Election (in fact they use that same sound they use when Reese's character Tracy goes nuts). Scott Patterson plays an almost completely clueless dad. It also costars Amy Pietz (who I always loved in Caroline in the City) as the mother. The teenagers in the show play their role very well. I hope it lasts, because I want to see more of it...

I do believe the pilot airs again on Sunday if you want to check it out.

Full lyrics for Iran So Far- Andy Samberg

The official NBC YouTube link has been taken down? Anyway for the time being I got this one.

First off- I didn't do these lyrics they are from Just Jared and I don't think they did a great job at them. I had to fill in the bomb lyric- because they had no clue what was said. I decided that I didn't want to eff around and type up all the lyrics so I was waiting for someone else too. I also included some photo stills.

SNL’s “Iran So Far” Lyrics
They say true love comes only once in a lifetime

And even though we’re from opposite ends of the earth

My heart tells me you’re the one for me
Mahmoud,

I remember when it started, saw you on the news

You hating gays, I was eating food

I was feeling you, and even though I disagree with almost everything you said

You ain’t wrong to me, so strong to me, you belong to me

Like a very hairy Jake Gyllenhaal to me

Mahmoud, make my heart beating out of my chest

my mind says no but my body says yes

You ain’t no threat, the only threat I see, is the threat of you not coming home to me

Our love for each other is like when atoms collide

Can’t express how I feel, and yo Adam let’s ride

And Iran, Iran so far away is your home, but in my heart you’ll stay
He ran, for the president of Iran

We ran together to a tropical island

My man, Mahmoud is known for violence

Smiling, if he can still do it then I can

They call you weasel, they say your methods are medieval

You can play the Jews, I can be your Jim Caviezel
S&M, (?) when we’re wrestlin’

You can be the port that I put my vessel in

So I try to (?) but you can still see me

With your sleepy brown eyes, butter pecan thighs

And your hairy butt… Yeah.
And Iran, Iran so far away

Come home, and in my arms you’ll stay

Used to look at the stars and dream

Around the world the same stars we’re seeing

And a twinkle in your eyes Mahmoud
Talk smooth to me, in the night sky

With you pants high waisted, damn so fly

We can take a trip to the animal zoo

And laugh at all the funny things that animals do

Like Eugene, you got me straight trippin’ boo

Hope you look at my eyes and say I’m trippin’ too

You say you don't have a bomb

You should know by now, it’s you
You crazy for this world Mahmoud

So give us another Holocaust all you want

But you can’t deny that there’s something between us

I know you say there’s no gays in Iran

But you’re in New York now baby

So time to stop hating and start living

My neti pot purchase

I went to Wal-Mart tonight and as I was searching through the allergy aisle I saw a neti pot and decided to go for it and get it. I have only used it once and I already feel like it is doing something good. If you have no idea what a neti pot is you really need to check it out. Basically I take this little pot and put some lukewarm water in it along with a little package of salt to make a saline. I tip my head to the side and insert the spout of the pot into my nostril and the water comes out of my other nostril. I kept getting some in my throat and it wasn't completely gross. I actually got some snot out though and it made my nose feel much better. I will never, never let anyone film me doing it, but other people have- I checked out YouTube and saw a couple.

My pot doesn't look like this, it's cheaper looking.
