Wow

Ok, so I admit that I've been a bit lax with the posting. But here's my reason: I moved.

Moving sucks and I wish it upon no one. Granted, my move was rather smoothe and awesome, but I was still exposed to some undue stress and for that I am saddened.

But here is my sincere promise to get back into the swing of things. Huzzah!

Top Chef



Oh man...do I love the show 'Top Chef.'

Seriously, there are no words to express how awesome I think it is. I was never a fan until this season when I happened to catch an episode late one night on Bravo. It's like heroine, people, it's that good.

First of all, I don't really understand half of the things that they are cooking, but they all look delicious. I never thought that I would willingly want to eat caviar, but when placed on a nice piece of toast with some garnish? Yeah, I'm game.

Second- drama abounds in the kitchen. Whether Marcel was stealing people's burners or Marcel was concocting another foam, it was always fun to watch people explode at him.

Congratulations are in order for Ilan- America's Top Chef. I couldn't tell you what he made for the final meal, but it all looked absolutely delish. Well played, Ilan. And well played, 'Top Chef,' for being awesome.

Ah, yes. Our favorite family of crime will be returning on April 8th for the last time. I don't know if any of you watched it last season, but let me give you the low down: nothing happened. One can only hope that in the last, epic episodes we will get some action and excitement.



The lack of interesting plot developments last season really irked me. Where's the drama and the excitement of the first few seasons? Honestly, the only redeeming part of the entire season was Carmella. She was ridiculous and Edie Falco should get a million awards for her performance last season. Give her an oscar. DO IT!

Anyway, I look for ward to April 8th. I'll just be patiently waiting in my room until it comes on. That's not sad, is it?

Videos Make Me Smile

You ever watch a video that just warmed your heart? Or something that made you smile for at least ten minutes after watching it? Well, I would like to share something with you that makes me so happy, I can barely stand it.

As some, or most, people know, I am an avid fan of The Office. Both the American and UK version are, according to me, the greatest works of television comedy that I've ever seen. It's a smart and amazingly subtle show. The more times you watch an episode, the more you will uncover as to why it is just that good. And anyone who watches the American version can attest to Michael and Dwight being, undeniably, one of the greatest teams to ever grace TV. So, without further ado, I give you Michael and Dwight...the the romantic stylings of Justin Timberlake.

PS

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I completely forgot that I hadn't posted in a while. That was so 2006 of me. Forgive me, reader?

Buy me an iPhone



This is what I want. If I don't get it sometime soon, expect riots and bottle throwing.

You think that I'm kidding about this? I haven't wanted something this bad, well, ever. Ok, I take that back. I would really love to live in Manhattan and have a thriving career. But since that doesn't seem to be working out too well for me, I'll take this phone in the meantime.

Steve Jobs had me at hello (or would that be iHello? I crack myself up sometimes). And then he continued to have me through the entire explanation of his new toys. I don't really understand it, perse, and I'm not 100% sure that I can use this phone with Verizon, but I'll be damned if I don't get one as soon as they are available.

I dare you to try and stop me, withering bank account. Bring it on, overdue credit card bills. I refuse to be denied this one thing*.



*ten points to whoever can tell me where that line is from. hint: television show.

The Most Overrated Holiday Of The Year

AKA- New Year's Eve!!

It's a night in which everyone in New York City pays an exhorbitant amount of money to go to a bar with 300 other people that they don't know in order to have a great time. Chances are that you won't have a good time and it'll be a gaggle of bridge and tunnel weirdos ruining your night.



I like to consider New Year's "amateur night." People who don't normally go out tend to consider themselves badasses on New Year's, which makes it hard for people who actually want to enjoy themselves when there are idiots running around the city.

Why can't I just go to a party at someones house and hang out with friends? Why is it now the norm for everyone to pay $150 for a ticket to a bar you could get into for free on any other night of the year?

This year, in protest of stupidity, I will be having a frill-free New Year's Eve. I'm going to attend a house party and I will wear jeans. I might even wear a sweatshirt. Take that, slutty-girls from Long Island!
