Things:
- C.K. Kelly Martin’s book trailer for I Know It’s Over. I can’t wait to read it!
- Last week I was thinking about Cracked Up to Be and emailed my rockstar editor and asked her if it was too late to change something in it and she was all rockstar about it and told me it wasn’t and so I did and I sent it off and then there was peace in the land.
- I still need a myspace URL. This weighs heavy on my mind.
- A few days ago I decided my new workspace would be my bed because I heard a comfortable writer is a highly productive one but do you know what that is a lie.
- In related news, I am very well-rested!
- I am watching Friday the 13th series. Godspeed, Kevin Bacon, Crispin Glover!
- Jonathan Penner has a myspace! I totally added him and decided myspace is okay after all.
- Every time I watch this Trailer Park Boys clip, I laugh so hard I cry. I guess I should put a language warning here even though it’s Trailer Park Boys. NSFW.
- The other night nothing was on television so I watched What Not to Wear and then I started wondering why there were hardly any men on the show and why was this construction working mother of many housewife on it felt so guilty about ‘letting herself go’ and even guiltier for investing time and money to get herself ‘back’ and whether or not it was because of the way society is or if it was because of her family who ran her into the ground and were mad because she didn’t look good while they were doing it and then I decided maybe I shouldn’t watch What Not to Wear anymore because I was seriously like RAWR about it (probably it was society). Also what do you say to your friends who get you on that show? O hay, thnx for being too good a friend to tell me I can’t dress myself because you didn’t want to hurt my feelings and having the TV people do it instead!
- idk.

Oh my GOD, my anti-spam word is RICKY! AND YOU POSTED THAT VIDEO! Wait, do you have control over the spam words…is it a coincidence or not? At any rate, it’s freaking me out!!
I think if any of my friends ever nominated me for WNTW, I’d 1) start crying then 2) punch them in the face. Because, seriously. I think it is only acceptable to nominate someone if you clear it with them first and they express a desire to get a bunch of free clothes and a makeover. Sometimes I wonder if that’s how it usually goes down because I feel like I don’t see enough freaking out at the ambush.
Hey, thanks!!
And I love that Trailer Park Boys clip. After that I had to watch some Conky :)
It sounds like I better not *ever* watch What Not To Wear. I can feel a rant about gender expectations brewing in my head just from reading your comments on it. Grrrr!
Very cool that you could get your change to Cracked Up To Be made (and now I’m ever so curious!).
1. I Know It’s Over looks great. I happened upon some eh book trailers today, so it was cool to see one that actually intrigued me. Looking forward to the release!
2. Now I really want to see Trailer Park Boys. Really really. That was hilarious.
TTYL!
I’m falling out of love with my MySpace. I think we need a trail seperation to see if we really are an important part of each others lives.
Lori: I DO HAVE CONTROL OVER THE SPAM WORDS. Sunnyvale, Bubbles and Julian are also in there. There are also some that only you will get. But I love that Ricky popped up when I posted a TPB video. RULE! And I agree, bb. I was going to post about how we were watching it together and I was asking you all of these questions as we watched it like you were somehow responsible but then I wasn’t sure how you would feel being my blog. I LIKE TO CHECK WITH PPL FIRST.
C.K.: It’s a great trailer too!! I love how it’s not overlong & interesting and it just works. I seriously can’t wait to read it!! Aah, Conky! I totally have a Conky finger puppet and it’s not as endearing when I run around calling people Patrick Swayze. And yeah, WNTW will make your head explode. I wish they alternated genders every week but apparently men know how to dress. And I was happy too–I was just under the wire for the change!
EM: I saw a couple of ‘eh’ ones today too! I had to watch the IKIO trailer to get them out of my brain. AAH. IT IS A WONDERFUL SHOW. I cannot stress that enough. Episodes are up on youtube if you wouldn’t feel morally wrong about watching them.
Brian: Aw. I hope the break gives you both what you need. :)
um, excuse me, they get FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS to go buy new clothes in sweet-ass New York City stores. Anyone on that show complaining about BOO HOO SHOPPING needs to STFU and hand over that free money to someone who will appreciate it.
I think we both know who that someone is.
Plus, stop insulting my future job. Stacy London can’t do that shit forever!! I am totally ready to explain to these women that capris are not flattering on anyone!
p.s. OHMYGOD, PENNER. Tell him to marry me. I don’t care that he already has a wife.
YEAH but they only use that 5k in like. Upscale shops! It drives me crazy! They don’t get a new wardrobe with 5k! They get like 3 outfits. But yeah, bb, you should totally get that monies to be fashionable with. AND THEN STEAL STACY’S JOB, YES!!!! Seriously if she doesn’t cut her hair soon then they better get a new co-host b/c damn.
I WOULD TELL HIM TO MARRY YOU BUT I ALREADY TOLD HIM TO MARRY ME, SRY2SAY.
I watched an episode of WNTW with my sister yesterday! An ex-stripper who bought clothes in children’s sizes was being stripped (haha) of her wardrobe. This included the hosts throwing out a raccoon tail that the woman would hook onto the back of whatever she was wearing whenever she went out.
Anyway, on sitcoms, you can always tell the ugly duckling is really a pretty girl on whom they put an ugly wig and big black glasses and the transformation is never really surprising.
Not the case here. After they transformed her, I never would’ve guessed it was the same person. She looked professional. I could see her walking around downtown with a briefcase.
… A RACCOON TAIL?!!!!!
