Yes.

This is everything that is right in the world. OK, that was dramatic, but I loooove this song and now, this video.

And so...

"Dear John" was a bust. After all that anticipation, all I walked out with was disappointment. There's a weird creepy twist at the end that made me pretty upset. After that dear John, I quit you.

In other news, today is Olympic day 8. I haven't been able to watch much but I hear things are going swimmingly. You should check out http://www.nbcolympics.com/ if you're falling behind like I am. This morning I learned that Evan Lysacek won men's figure skating gold. Apparently that is the first time since 1988, when Brian Boitano won, that an American has won. So, go him. I did, however, get to watch Shaun White the night previous. Ohemgee. That is one ginger-man I would gladly befriend/runawaytoadesertedislandwith. Like, tomorrow. I love my boyfriend but, oooohhhhweeeee.

I just took a break from blogging to see if I could watch a video of Tiger Woods' press conference. Not long after I started listening to some feedback I realized that I didn't want to watch. Tiger, I quit you too.

Now that Fashion Week is over, I should probably acknowledge it. However, there are others who would serve you better. For starters, Tavi Gevinson. Check out her blog at http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/

Just looking though the Spring 2010 RTW collection. Clicked through 1-46 like a fiend. Narrowed it down to my top five. What will Gaga do without him? Sad, sad day.

Couch time.

This past weekend and the beginning of this week I've spent my fair share of time on the couch. Good thing is, I got caught up on some great television shows and movies. I'll start with the movies and continue on to the television shows. These are in no particular order.

1. Book of Eli. Just go see it.
2. More Than a Game. I'm sure most would know the story even if they're not immediately familiar with the title. This movie was a documentary about Lebron James and his teammates from middle/high school. Although I was prepared to be unimpressed by pretty much everything but the Lebron James story itself, I was pleasantly surprised! It was an excellent movie and was about so much more than Lebron James. "The Fab Five," as he and his friends call themselves, share an amazing story. Basketball is the center of their bond but their lives off-court are equally as gripping as their athletic ups and downs. "More Than a Game" is definitely a sports movie, but it's a feel-good movie as well.
3. Dear John. OK, I haven't seen this movie but I've dreamt about it more than once and it's amazing.

1. Teen Mom. I know I'm probably too old to be an MTV junkie but I can't help myself. The people featured on Teen Mom were also on another MTV program I frequented entitled "16 and Pregnant." Their stories are all touching. OK, I take that back. Amber and Gary are not touching. Although they have stuggled like the others, they are obnoxious. Reason being, on the reunion show, Amber seemed to think she might be pregnant again. HELLO PEOPLE. Get it together. Anyways, the engaged stepchildren and Maci are my favorites. I have watched every episode and these past few days have continued to re-watch them. Can't. Stop.
2. The Buried Life. Another MTV gem. The four boys in this show are absolutely hilarious and I want to live with them. On their tour bus. Last night they helped deliver a baby and sent a girl from Memphis to Denver, to see her mother's grave. They are the most genuinely altruistic people I have never met. As they have inspired us, a friend and I have also started to make a list of things we want to do before we die. Her list is much more together than mine. If you're lucky maybe she'll share in the comments :) I'll post my first draft when it's compiled.
3. The Good Wife. There are quite a few weeknight television programs these days. With all the CSI's and NCIS's one could get confused. That's why I stay away from all of that mumbo jumbo. Stictly business with "The Good Wife." Last night, one of the lawyers was tripping shrooms. If that doesn't peak your interest you should probably stick to "Everybody Loves Raymond." But really, this show is amazing. It's dramatic, hilarious and gripping. Keeps me coming back every week. It is a little late at 9:00pm so be sure to set that DVR. When I'm too tired, it becomes my afternoon treat on Wednesdays between jobs.

Hopefully those recomendations are to your liking. If not, we'll try again some other time. I've got to get back to work now. Maybe later I'll tell about how I'm going to Spain in a month.

ADIOS!!!

I'm baaaack!

It's been far too long since my last post. But now, after the new year, I finally am starting to feel like I'm getting back into the swing of things. The first week of January we had three snow days at work, then the second week I was home sick for two days. After I recovered, I spent the weekend in Oklahoma City. Believe it or not, I returned with all my phalanges. Last week we only worked four days because of MLK Jr. Day. This is my first full week of work in 2010 and MAN, do I feel it. It's only Tuesday.

For all of you who don't know, there's a rather big sporting event going on this Saturday in Manhattan, KS. I think this weekend will be a mini-reunion for all of us former college students. The festivities begin Friday evening, should be a great weekend! I don't have an actual ticket to the game but my friends and I will be right at home in our favorite sports bar in Aggieville. Let's hope we all remember we're not in college anymore. These marathon weekends don't feel the way they used to on Mondays.

I was thinking I should put some interesting links for you all to look at. Instead, I'm short of time so I will ask for input. So, peeps, what are your favorite websites??? For news, interesting facts, cleberity slamming, whatever! I usually stick to MSN for sound bytes of news and other human-interest stories. If you haven't checked out thesuperficial.com by now, please do. It's not for everyone but if you like some good celebrity gossip every now and then, that's my favorite. The write is absolutely hilarious. Yesterday he posted some quality pictures of Donatella Versace with a nice commentary. Remember the old woman who is constantly sunning in "There's Something About Mary?" I didn't think people like her really existed. Ergo, Donatella Versace.

That's all for now folks. Will look forward to checking out your websites and judging you based upon your recomendations. I kid, I kid.

EMAW.

Sicky

Third snow day in a row, I'm getting a cold. This is what I get for not going to work! I'll be back tomorrow. NyQuil and HGTV are in my future.

Take 2

Today was another snow day and I honestly didn't think life could get any better. Behold! Snow day three tomorrow! Life is good. I could get used to 5-day weekends. Today was spent with a good friend. Trying to get some qt in before she leaves again tomorrow to go back to Spain.

TOUCHDOWN TEXAS!!!!!

OK, I'm back. We ran some errands this morning. Encountered far too many crazies on the roads. A man driving a Roadway semi-truck almost ended our lives. Yeah, that was dramatic but true nonetheless. I have his truck number saved in my phone. I need to figure out how to report him to his peeps. Other than that, just the usual winter weather driving situations. Multiple cars stuck in the snow. Not to toot my own horn people, but my car has rear-wheel drive and I made it around and out of the city without driving myself into a mountain of snow. Pull it together.

I forgot I promised a movie review today. We watched Away We Go last night. Usually if I start a movie after 9:00pm I'm guaranteed to fall asleep a quarter of the way in. I did fall asleep for a little bit but I awoke and finished the movie. So, it gets my vote! The movie was about a young couple, living on love, with a baby on the way. The little guy has one set of living grandparents and his parents recently moved closer so they could be together. Alas, the grandparents decide they want to move to Belgium. (Mom and Dad: If you're reading this, don't even try it.) With the news, the pregnant couple goes on a search around the country to find a new home close to family members or friends. One of the people they visit is Jim Gaffigan. Excellent. After all of the ups and downs they end up at the the mother's parents house/set of grandparents that aren't living. When they arrive they know they have found their new home, even though they are alone. Touching.

I need to get back to the football game. It's 24-13 Alabama right now. I haven't lost faith, hook 'em Horns. After that, I'll be watching videos of Mariah Carey at the People's Choice Awards last night. That's two nights in a row, Mariah. I think I'll retract the coma comment, you're entertaining me.
