How I Met Your Mother -- The Wrong Bachelorette Party Gift

Last night's episode of HIMYM was really good. They don't show the part when the gift gets opened it was pretty good. I am just amazed that censors let them say a lot of the things they said.

Probably ancient news

I was just looking around and I found out that the second National Treasure movie is filming some scenes at Mount Rushmore. The Hill City high school generally has their prom there and it got moved because of it. I very rarely watch Keloland at night time so I'm sure it's old news- but oh well. Here is a link about it Nicholas Cage in the Hills

Now everybody is going to want to have a Treasure Hunters game to play on the way to Mount Rushmore- Amy you should try to sell kits of it at the Arts Festival!

I taped the Little People, Big World and about to watch it- it is about the littlest child getting hit with the pumpkin trebuchet- I'm going to probably cry and cry.

Jesus arose and my MP3 player has fallen

Dang it I am so depressed today. I went up to Brookings last night and was listening and grooving to my player through my car radio. I pulled in the driveway and turned the power off and went into the house. I was talking to my parents and then we got ready to go to sleep. I turned off the TV and was going to listen to some music through the stereo in my parents living room. I pushed the power button and instead of going to the menu it did pretty much nothing for around 40 seconds and then the following message pops up 'File system corrupted!' I shrugged it off and tried again- and after trying it an additional 30 times now I am convinced finally that it won't suddenly heal itself. I was just starting to love the damn thing truly!! I had accepted that it wasn't an iPod and I was fine with that, mainly because I had purchased music through Wal-Mart.com and it worked in my player. I feel like I lost a little piece of me- not a major part, but definitely a piece I wouldn't mind keeping. I have looked on the RCA site to see if I could find anything to help my situation. I am going to have to have someone with more insight help me- because I still haven't figured it out. Aaaaaaaaaaa!


I went to Blades of Glory. It was pretty funny at times- I'm not going to deny that I laughed, because I did. I just wish that the original movie (The Cutting Edge) got some credit- I mean come on they even did the same routine at the end! Will Arnet and Amy Poehler are such a wacky cute couple. The funny part about going to the movie is that I took my 10 year old niece to it. I got her parents approval beforehand since they had gone to it. I found myself covering her eyes a couple of times. For the most part things went over her head.

Well anyway-- maybe if I pray really really hard my MP3 player will be fixed. I'll try!

Bawling like a baby

I just got done watching the final episode of Six Feet Under and bawled like crazy. I just lost it during the last couple of minutes when they were showing how and when the main characters died. The thing that made me the most depressed was the fact that Claire only married the Ted guy when she was in her 40s or later. It just reminded me of when I was bemoaning the fact that I'm never going to get married and a stranger chimes in that she knows someone who is 50 and just fell in love. I don't want to wait until I'm in my later life. I would like the option of having a child, thank you! I don't know why I watched it now I'm all depressed. I think it was supposed to make you feel better by showing that they all (for the most part) lived long lives. This is why I should not watch any new shows- I get too emotionally invested. Now I am thinking about my own family and death- it's a whole vicious cycle.

I should erase all of that sadness with mocking stupid rich white girls. I am currently taping the Hills finale afterparty so I need to watch the show and then yell at the screen at the vapidness that is MTV reality. I'm secretly addicted to it- not so much Laguna Beach- just The Hills? Anyway- I really should get ready for bed- night

Alanis Morissette

I know that I check out Perez Hilton for a reason. Here is a Alanis Morissetted version of The Black Eyed Peas My Humps. The video is just hilarious. She must have just got all her guy friends to surround her. The lyrics are just terrible, which you know, but when you hear it this way it is just so very clear. Is one of the guys that guy from Felicity? The gay boss at the coffee shop? Anyway- enjoy

I wish I had a big ass TV


I am watching the show Planet Earth on the Discovery Channel- my sister asked if I could record the series for her so I did- I'm glad she asked me to because it is really cool. I had seen it advertised but I really hadn't any intention of watching it. The images it recorded are just amazing and that is why I wish I had a big TV. It's the Deserts episode.

I went up to Brookings on Saturday afternoon and hung out with the nieces. We went to Wal-Mart and got some things and then came back and I boiled my first batch of eggs- ever. It's kind of sad to admit that I had never been the one to do it and I'm 28. I even tested one later and it was just perfect- the yolk didn't have the greenish coat that you try to avoid by immediately putting in cold water- I was beyond proud of myself. Today hard boiled eggs, tomorrow the world! Anyway, after that Taylor and I decorated eggs with a tie-dye kit while Samantha slept. When she woke up we did the traditional dyeing of eggs and had supper. We also made some bunny baskets with milk cartons. They are really cute. I was thinking about bringing both of them to an early showing of the new Pixar movie 'Meet the Robinsons', but the 5 showing was too early because Samantha was just getting up from nap and then the 7 show was too early because we were eating, so I asked if the 9 showing was a parent possibility. I was given permission and we went- but I was really hesitant because I had heard the younger niece was kind of a twerp the last time she went to a theater. I almost think it was the perfect time- it was pretty empty and she did awesome. If there had been someone in front of us I think she may have had a harder time. I think that I have only taken her to 2 movies in an actual theater- both Pixar- but I'm not sure. I sent Taylor out to get the treats after we got seated and I stayed with Sam. I was hoping that Taylor would take two trips but she did it in one! She carried in her 10 year old arms- one medium popcorn, a box of popcorn, a kiddie drink, and two (count em) two medium pops! I was so surprised! She sits down and I ask- 'Did you get the straws?' and she said 'Oh man!' Then when I got back she told me that they didn't have the Hi-C punch, so she got her Mello Yello. Samantha only had about 10 sips, but taking her out of the theater was like taking out a drunk baby. She was laughing and just acting completely silly. It was a really good day spending time with them. I feel like I don't get to see them enough and it is always rushed time. It didn't feel that way on Saturday. By the way- the movie was pretty good. An animated Back to the Future Part II, pretty much. Anything by Pixar is good.

My mom came up on Thursday night and we went to Dreamgirls. I enjoyed it- yet at the same time I wasn't taken to a different world. That's what I like about musicals (hell movies), you believe the world they make for you. You buy what the actress is supposed to be selling you- someone else's life. I just kept thinking about how pretty Beyonce is and what a tool Jamie Foxx is, and I'm not sure what else.... basically what dresses were the prettiest? I wouldn't turn my nose up and seeing it again- but would I buy it- not sure.

Something I was digging was this last weeks episode of Lost- it was titled Exposé ( I figured out ohow to type it Alt 130 éé- thank goodness- that was driving me crazy trying to figure that out. It was a great episode in my mind. Kind of a throwback to Tales from the Darkside or The Twilight Zone or something like that- it's more terrifying when you think back on the whole time they both knew they were going to be buried. Ahhh! It was a harmless fun episode and it tied up the loose ends that was Nikki and Paulo.

Anyway I should be sleeping- night

Fergie - Fergalicious Parody

I don't see much of a difference between this Fergie from the real one. The most disturbing images- I just don't understand how she can be popular. I love the back up dancers they crack me up.


Reading got hotter!
