Jezebel posted/found the best clip ever by someone who's definitely a Buffy fan. I laughed out loud, and the hubby just stared. "I don't understand your nerdy ways." Well, husband, I don't understand your longstanding patience for a hockey team that will probably never make to the Stanley Cup Finals in our lifetime. Go Kings!
Anyway, here's the clip. If you're a Buffy fan, you'll appreciate it.
I had forgotten all the dialogue she spewed. Thank you, Whedon!
Bleak and I like to save a little bit of money by trading our magazine subscriptions when we're done with them. I think I get the better end of this deal. She gets my Marie Claires, Luckys, and US mags; I get her Real Simples and SELFs. I think we've been doing this for over two years. After continually reading her SELF mags, I've been spurred to join the Self Challenge this year. I weigh way too much for my own good. I think I've gained another few pounds since our trip to NYC. It ain't happy fat. It's just fat. What bugs me (about myself) is that I've picked up the two internships and two classes this summer. I kind of already sabotaged my own training before signing up.
Yesterday I went to the gym in my 5 year old Nikes. I had meant to throw them away when we were in Singapore (to get rid of dead weight). I forgot and brought them home. They're dead. Alas, I went out to pick up a pair of inexpensive sneakers today. Ta da. Go DSW! I got these babies for $40! Yeah! I had tried to go back to New Balance but the selection at the Pas DSW isn't so great. The models are all in the 400s, which I've had bad luck re: cushion.
Bubba came home late and I asked if he wanted to see my new shoes. He rolled his eyes and said NO. I took them out of the box anyway - ta da! He cracked that I was getting ready for the Silver Surfer. WTH? They're not that silvery. Dork. But I can't poke him too much. He bought me new highlighters and pens [Bic Round Stics - the best!] and a mini-mouse for my laptop. Whee! I'm loving this mouse. I've been using this all day today since 8 am. It's perfect for my normal-palm-but-short-fingers hand.
Agent Doggett (aka. T-1000, aka. Robert Patrick) shows up. Agent Reyes (boo on the character, yay for Annabeth Gish) gets introduced. Blah. I always thought that Scully looked younger in the later seasons than in the beginning of the series. In the beginning, she was so frumpy. Then she just kept getting better. Bigger budget, I guess. Ahhh Krycek. Nicholas Lea was a great baddie! That reminds me of the opposite of hot Krycek - the Lone Gunmen. :p
Below is a screenshot from Season 6, one of my favorite funny episodes.
Oh Bravo. I got sucked into watching the last few eps of TOP DESIGN and can't figure out how they're judging the rooms. There's a crazy person amongst the three judges - you know, the one with the faux 'fro and horrendously bad fashion. Tim Gunn needs to show up and rip that shit off her.
Then WORKOUT is back! Yeah! I do like this show even though some of the trainers are idiots. Jackie seems to be a pretty positive role model. I was so relieved to see that she broke up with Mimi - she was such a dick. I'm so sad that Doug passed away though. He was one of my faves on the show in Season 1.
Update on the boots: I got them last night at 6:fucking:30PM. They look great! They zip up too! The right boot is a little too tight though; I'm going to chalk it up to the fact that my right leg is my dominant leg. I checked Zappos and saw that there is a tan pair too! OH I AM SOOOOO TEMPTED.
Update on jeans search: I returned the Hudson jeans a while ago and kept the credit at Bluefly. I found a pair of Joe's Jeans Socialite for less than $100! I got the size 32s even though I'm a 31. I got them today and tried them on. They're a little loose, but I have high hopes that putting them in the washer and dryer will shrink it to the perfect fit. Plus I need to get them washed before I hem them. Goddamn jeans - wtf is up with the 35" inseam???????
