This is the one in a pumpkin patch.

Happy Halloween!

This is the one that is not happening.

My absolute favorite clip from Ugly Betty.

This is the one about my addiction.

I’ve got a serious addiction.  And I know it’s a problem because it’s affecting all aspects of my life.  It’s affecting my work.  It’s affecting my relationships with family and friends.

I’m dependent on chapstick.

Some of you may laugh and say that this isn’t a textbook chemical dependence, but actually just a meaningless psychological dependence.  That is not the case.

Chapstick has menthol, camphor, and phenol in it…all of which are responsible for temporary soothing my pain, and then ultimately drying and irritating my lips again.

It’s a vicious cycle, and I don’t think you can truly understand what I’m going through unless you’ve been through it, or if you’ve tried to stop a heroin addiction.

Any suggestions that don’t include the word “turkey?”

This is the one with ten reasons.

This video is called “10 toys that made you gay.”  I promise it’s worth waiting to see number 1.

This is the one with a quotation.

This is the one about Steinbeck, Bronte, Salinger, and the gang.

[books]

We got a grip of books donated to the club last week that were taken off the shelves of the LA Public Library.  I got permission to snag a few, and I went with a handful of “classics” that I have never read:

** Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll

** Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

** Go Ask Alice by Anonymous

** The Pearl by John Steinbeck

** Frankenstein by Mary Shelley

** The Catcher In The Rye by Salinger (which I’ve read…but my copy is packed away in boxes, and I was thinking of re-reading)

The perks of this job!

This is the one where I scream, ‘WAKE UP!!’

Happy October!

This is the one where a businessman can’t hold a candle…

This is the one I write while watching ‘Heroes.’

This is kind of an experiment post.  I’m watching Heroes right now, and I’m going to write this post as the episode is on.

** Episode opens with subtitles.  Annoying.  I’ve read all day.  I’m not going to read it.  Perhaps I’ll be missing a significant part of the story.  Who cares.

** Okay, now Peter wakes up.  His dad took his abilities.  But we know he has abilities in the future…because he came back in time.  Right?  With the scar, remember?

** I need chapstick.  brb.

** Episode 7: something in latin.  As if this show needed something else that was confusing.

** Opening sequence.  Is it me, or are shows starting to show their opening sequences later and later?  Ugly Betty’s is like 15 minutes into the episode.

** Funny joke… “Have you met their mother?”  Zing!

** Woah…so Arthur can totally take away someone’s powers.  Kinda cool.

** Does Skyler look a little like Billy Zane?  Or is it just me?

** Who would you rather have as a mom, Joan Crawford or Angela Petrelli?

** Woah.  Girl has lightning come out of her body, and Claire says, “Is there something wrong with you?”  Stupid cheerleader.

** Boyfriend is sick, and falling asleep.  Too cute…if I had a camera close, I’d snap a photo.

** Woah.  One fat guy down.  Killed the cop’s dad.

** Commercial.  This experiment is stupid…not sure If I’ll really publish it.

** Hahaha…Channel 12 News teaser: “When the times get tough, the tough buy guns.”  I love stupid news teasers.

** Claire says, “There’s something inside of me, and it’s broken.”  My response: Is it a broom handle, cause that could cause an infection.

** Daphne’s cute, right?  The running girl.  In a ‘Lost In Translation’ sort of way.

** Time travel confuses me.  “When you saw me in the future, what did I look like?”  God damn this show.

** Another commercial.  During which I asked the boyfriend, “This show is confusing, right?”  And he said, “Yeah.”  He’s sick and not his normal verbose self.

** Who’s the blonde lightning girl’s father again?  I asked the boyfriend…he knows but doesn’t give me a coherent response.

** Plane turbulance because of the lightning girl…I guess that’s why you can’t use your iPod during take-off?

** The fear-guy puts his hand through the cop.  Now if this show was based in reality, that would mean he is dead, right?  But I think he’s going to live.

** Commercial.

** Wait…now they are alive.  Cop made the fear-guy imagine?  This is stupid.

** I miss season 1.

** Shit!  I put a calorie-free soda water in the freezer before dinner.  I gotta get it out.

** That Mexican girl…or Guatamalan of whatever…has a fake accent.

** I think I’d rather be reading right now.

** Or sleeping.

** Or quilt sewing.

** Or brick laying.

** Or grass mowing.

** Did I mention that I’m lying on a Love Sac right now?  My boyfriend has this large red one in his living room.  He has some stomach flu or food posioning, and he’s on the couch.  I smelled something gross, and I said, “did you just fart?” and he said, “yeah.  Sorry.”

** Peter flew out a window and now he isn’t healing.

** Elle, the blonde lightning bitch just ditched Claire.  Women are fickle.

** The boyfriend is hot with a fever, and just put a blanket on.  Gross.

** How do you suppose Peter survived that fall?  Seven stories without the ability to heal.  Boyfriend guesses Skyler did it on purpose.

** And things just got more complicated with the fast-running girl being two-faced.  Shit.

** Does anyone else think that Hiro’s friend Ando is hot?

** Does Ando ever speak in English?  Boyfriend says yes.

** This is the longest post ever.  I’d be surprised if anyone is reading this.

** Hiro passes out…show is over.

This is the one where he gets injured bad.
