What are you doing today?

Matte and I are working on our STDs.*

*STD is theknot.com lingo for Save the Dates. What did you think I meant?

Word geek

Music Mama tagged me for this quiz. Words, I can do. Math? Notsomuch.

I wonder if erudite means something similar to crudite. Mmm…now I’m feeling a bit peckish. Time for breakfast!

Where are they now?

About a year ago, I wrote this.

Then today I read about one of Heidi’s latest recruits. This is wrong on so many levels, but I sure hope he refrains from the ear nibbling.

Random acts of blogness from my Google Reader

I didn’t play Suff Portrait Friday this week. I was too busy playing on the Internets and catching up on my reading. In lieu of SPF photos, I give you some of the juicy nuggets I found:

Here’s something I don’t need, unless I can put 911 Turbo on my Accord (from Popgadget).

Time and CNN compiled the list of the Top 100 Albums of All Time. ALL TIME, people. That means it goes as far back as the 50s! Wow.

After reviewing the list, I realize that I don’t like good music. Because out of 100 albums considered THE BEST OF ALL TIME, I own or have owned a mere seven.

George Clooney is this year’s Sexiest Man Alive, according to People. That’s fine, but a bit obvious, don’t you think? I’m all about Peter Dinklage these days. Really. I am. The man has serious acting chops and that? Is sexy.

Oprah Winfrey is reportedly not invited to Tom Cruise’s wedding. And after he pounced all over the talk show diva’s divan professing his love for Katie? It’s okay Opes, you can come to my nuptials. And I won’t set one foot on your couch.

This is a very sweet animated short. It made cry a little bit (from EW’s Popwatch).

I think this might be the most creative and clever Flickr set I’ve ever seen (from Boing Boing).

That’s it for now. Happy Friday, everybody!

The WHAT?

While tuned in to ABC-HD tonight, anxiously awaiting the series premiere of Day Break, starring Taye Diggs*, I was shocked to hear this on a commercial for a new game show:

“You’ve seen the waltz. The rumba, and even the mambo. But you’ve never seen…the SHAT.”

Did I hear that right? The past tense of the word shit? To describe Captain Kirk? Is this supposed to be clever? I thought ABC was owned by Disney. Let’s see…twitterpated, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, hakuna matata, zippity-do-dah, shat. Yeah. that word doesn’t fit so well.

But mostly, is use of this word in promos supposed to entice viewers to tune in to Show Me the Money when it fills the Dancing with the Stars time slot? Well, maybe if the show is shat-tastic, shat-stounding, and shat-rageous as the producers promise.

And lastly, is my mind just in the gutter toilet, or did you think what I thought?

*Whether or not Taye’s Groundhog Day-type show proves to be a good mid-season temporary replacement for Lost, the boy is hawt.

I’m doing it! I’m doing it!

Seriously y’all. I have attention deficit disorder. Ask Matte, who’s sitting next to me on the couch. We’re catching up on week-old shows we recorded on our Comcast DVR. As we watch this show, I am blogging. Because I can’t do just one thing. Even if that one thing requires me to merely lounge on the furniture and vege out. Honestly, I can’t remember the last time I sat and watched a DVD in its entirety, directing my full attention to the screen. Even the surround sound engulfing my entire head isn’t enough to make me put down the laptop. Or magazine. Or Bargain Weddings book.

I can’t do just one thing for any length of time. Well, except sleep. And even that I can do while watching TV.
keep reading I’m doing it! I’m doing it!

Glassholders

This photo does not condone drinking and driving. However, it does condone taking goofy photos while tipsy from your engagement photo shoot at a winery.
