holy cassidy casablancas

WOW.

so, i finished season 2 of Veronica Mars this afternoon. WOW. oh man i cried a lot. first i cried because i was:

1. scared. really scared. and in major shock.

then i cried because i was:

2. sad. really sad. like, devastated.

then i cried because i was:

3. relieved. so, freaking, incredibly relieved. and happy.

it was a good progression of tears. they went through every extreme possible. for serious.

man. i was shocked at the ending. i can't believe it. i still can't believe it. did ANYONE see that coming?!!? if you saw that ending coming, then you deserve some sort of medal.

also, i was looking up Veronica Mars music today because there was a song in an episode that i really liked (Lost and Found by Adrienne Pierce) and i saw a fanvideo for Logan and Veronica. i didn't watch it, but it was called, LoVe. and, those are the two first letters of their names! and i wondered if that was done on purpose.

i really love Logan. he's so sarcastic and wonderful. i admit, i was rooting for Veronica and Duncan at the beginning. and now Duncan has that beautiful baby girl!

i keep thinking that it will be monday when i wake up in the morning. i have my days all mixed up. all day i was thinking it was sunday.

last night i slept for 10 hours! with no interruptions!!!! i needed it. oh, it was great. i didn't wake up once. when was the last time you did something for 10 hours straight with no interruptions!!?? i totes recommend. it.

it downpoured all day today. it was very pretty to watch. it was foggy in the mountains.

and i tried for a long time to fix my computer. i read this long article pretty much describing all the symptoms i am having. and then it said, "you probably have a Bagle infection." and i said, "hmm....that sounds strangely delicious." and then it said, "download this and it will help you out."

so, i downloaded this thing. and ran this HUGE scan. it took like, over an hour. probably close to two hours to complete. and in the end: nothing. no bagles. or bagels. you'll find no bagels here.

and then i did a "search for disc error" scan on a start-up of windows. nada. scan was clean! great! then why isn't anything working?!

and i went to the microsoft website and found an article that again, described all my computer symptoms pretty perfectly. and then it said, "you are probably infected with the Pretty Park virus."

so i said, "great! i'll google it!" so, i googled it and it turned out to be a virus you get by opening strange email attachments. which, i never do. so, it is not the Penny Park virus. or, Pretty Park virus. i keep wanting to call it Penny Park. but, i think it's Pretty Park. Penny Park is a cute name.

so my computer prob continues to be a mystery!!! a great halloween mystery story!!!!!!! this is one to tell your children.

but, something weird happened. i got an error message saying that Dr. Watson's Postmortem Debugger had crashed, and the computer was sorry about this. and i immediately thought, "great, i've got a virus and nothing to protect me from it." so, i googled it on my phone, because my computer immediately crashed. and it turns out that Dr. Watson's Postmortem Debugger is a REAL program invented by Microsoft to report back to them if your computer is having problems.

and also apparently, it very rarely, pretty much never, crashes unless something is really wrong. that's what the people said on all the nerd websites i visited. one website was like, "congratulations! you have managed to win a ticket to hell!" that wasn't too encouraging.

but, that was a fun piece of Microsoft trivia that i didn't know. i actually don't know much Microsoft trivia. any, actually.

oh! but, i do know that the PC guy is a friend of the REAL guy who Jason Schwartzman portrays on his tv show Bored to Death. so, J.Schwartz plays this guy Jonathan Ames on his tv show. and, Jonathan Ames is a real guy. he's a writer. and he created the show kind of based on himself. and, he's really friends with the PC guy, who had a guest appearance on the show.

good story, right?! so basically...

PC = Jason Schwartzman
Mac = still Justin Long

so now which one do i get?!?! i'm not a super huge fan of Justin Long, i don't think. what has he done besides get arrested for pot?

oh! looking at IMDb, he played George Harrison in Walk Hard. um, and who played Ringo Starr? um, J.Schwartz. yeah.

so, basically Mac and PC's are the same. except i'm still getting a Mac. when i have enough money. which will hopefully be in the next month.



and Jason is a Mac guy. even if i just said he was the PC guy. i don't know what i was talking about. i also love this picture. i like to think that he's so laid back, he records his Coconut Records songs in his pajamas. ooo so dreamy.

anyways.

so, we're letting the baby schedule our night tonight. he's been eating more formula, more often. and he wasn't hungry at the scheduled feeding time. so, we're gonna wait until he wakes up.

tonight me and Courtney were hanging out with the three girls and one of them said,

RESIDENT 1: Ok, I'm going to say something specifically about Julie and Courtney. So, we all think that you guys are super cool, laid back and bubbly. BUT, I think that you guys would be SCARY if you got really mad. (and she started like, punching her fists together) I bet you guys could totally beat someone down if you wanted to.
JULIE: Do you mean physically beat down? Or, beat down with our verbal skills?
RESIDENT 1: Like, street fighting.
JULIE: I don't have much street cred.
COURTNEY: Yeah...not so much.
RESIDENT 1: Well, I would totally not want to get in a fight with either of you because I bet you have split-personality and would totally turn on someone.

me and Courtney were just laughing. and then another girl made me try this ice cream, milk, and strawberry Nesquik drink she invented. it was good.

it was fun hanging out with them.

but man, i wish i had more nights off. well, i do, actually. since i'm doing so much work overnight, i earn more nights off. but, i feel bad taking nights off because if i do, then that means that someone else will just have to do it. and i'd rather i do it than anyone else.

i can hear Ruby Tuesday eating her dry food in the kitchen! she must have just woken up. she was sleepers on my bed.

anyways. maybe i'll take some more nights off.

so, i'm redownloading iTunes again so i can use it. hopefully. because i really like that song from VM and i want it on my iPod. i also need to create a new playlist. i'm going insane. i have a great playlist right now, except it's missing this Rooney song that i really love. and i haven't been able to update it!!!

i tried tricking the computer and hooking up my ipod to see if that would make itunes open. but, nothing happened.

i Netflixed the Rooney dvd. Spit and Sweat. it was pretty good. it was a concert they did in LA a few years ago. but, the concert was at the very end of a 2-year headlining tour. and, you could totally tell that Robert was losing his voice. so that was a bummer. but, the behind the scenes stuff was awesome. they are so funny. can't wait to see Matt Winter live and in person. OH i love him.

Ruby is now sleeping on my lap.

2:49am. sunday morning.

i'm working today 3:30-10pm. aka 3:30pm-8am. and then i have monday offff!!!!!!!! 8am to 10pm is ALL MINE!!!! i hope it's an easy breezy day.

i think i'm going to buy new headphones. remember my headphone saga? the week after my speaker saga? well, i'm not very happy with the headphones i bought. i thought they were going to be cool, but they're not. they are not comfortable and they don't stay on my ears. and it irratates my earring.

ITUNES!!!!! YES!!!!!! we're in business for the time being. now if i never shut off my computer, itunes will always be open!!!!!! and if i also never shut off my computer, it will overheat and probably start a fire!!!!! so, i won't do that.

ok. i have purchased the required songs needed for my happiness. they included:

1. Lost and Found, Adrienne Pierce
2. I Hear the Bells, Mike Doughty
3. The Chain, Ingrid Michaelson

i think it's a good selection. and i will upload them to my ipod and it will be like nothing is even wrong!!!

please note:: 'i hear the bells' is DIFFERENT than 'i can hear the bells' from the musical Hairspray. although, that's a great song too.

the 'not-hairspray' version played during the "alterna-prom" on Veronica Mars. another perfect Veronica/Logan moment.

now Ruby is sleeping on the floor under my coffee table.

so, it's 4:08am. just got back from a baby feeding. he started crying in the middle of my new-playlist-making. it's a good playlist. i called it, "had any good scones lately?" i love naming playlists.

phew. ipod is updated.

ok. i think i might go to bed now. although, i'm pretty awake. not sure if i'll be able to sleep.

today David is flying to Mexico! i hope he has a lovely safe flight and a great week there.

ok. 4:17am. i guess it's time for bed.

goodnight room. goodnight moon. goodnight cow jumping over the moon. goodnight light and the red balloon. goodnight kittens. goodnight mittens. goodnight brush. goodnight iTunes. goodnight mush. goodnight old lady whispering 'hush.' goodnight stars. goodnight air. goodnight noises everywhere.

(abbreviated version.) i read that story twice the other day. followed by The Runaway Bunny. the best part of Goodnight Moon is the old lady whispering 'hush.' because, when i would say 'hush,' i would whisper it into the little girl's ear, and then she would whisper it too. it was super cute.

ok! 4:25am. go to bed julie!!!!!! this is another night where i have to force myself. oohhhh i'm going to be tired tomorrow afternoon for work.

ok. i'm really going to bed now. me and Ruby had a fight. i got mad at her for attacking my hand and my legs repeatedly. and then she got even more excited and mad. and i pushed her away and she rolled over and then left the room. i hate when she gets into these violent moods.

ok. for real now. goodnight friends. have a lovely sunday. i hope you are able to stay home all day and never get out of your pajamas.

love you!!!!

21 October 2009

consider me destroyed

so, my computer is basically dead. not dead, but useless. NOTHING, nothing, except the internet is working. and i don't even know why that is working. it doesn't make sense. but, i am pretty thankful for it.

i can't open any programs. i can open "computer stuff" like my documents, etc. but, everything else. paint program. word. aim. itunes. alllll my anti virus programs. my dvd player. realplayer. NADA! everything is shot.

something must have gotten deleted or screwed up during the last virus invasion. something right must have gotten wronged. ya know?

and now! the best part is, when my good friend Windows Police Pro comes to visit me again, i won't be prepared. i'll be defenseless!

to quote Jordin Sparks, "i'm out here without a shield!"

why does this computer have to be like a battlefield?

today i just got so fed up with it. with EVERYTHING computer related. i have tried and tried and tried to save this computer tine after time after time. i have stayed up with it well into the night running virus scan after virus scan trying to make it better. i have upgraded memory when it was getting too slow. i have gotten it a hard drive when it died. new battery cord when it became frayed. replaced the motherboard when it was sick.

ok, so i never got it the cooling pad. i'm sorry. i meant to and meant to. i just didn't ever want to spend the $19.99 and I'M SORRY! okay, i'm sorry.

i'm just sad that this is the way it has to go. defeated by virus. broken and battered.

but, i am seriously puzzled as to why Firefox is opening. the link on the desktop is shot, so i have to open it by going to the start menu. but, that's no prob. i have no idea why that did not get destroyed in the recent attack.

so, it is a good thing i am picking up a zillion hours a week at work, because i will need a computer much sooner than later.

and - let me tell you - my next computer will be so freaking nice, it will put all other computers to shame. i will have the Titanic of computers. (meaning, greatness. not sinking.) ok, maybe i should say, 'i will have the Kate and Leo of computers.' i'm sorry, i think i deserve it. i don't feel that way very often.

1. i deserved to see Hanson the day my div 3 was due
2. i will deserve a few days off in the upcoming weeks
3. i deserve a nice computer after dealing with this one

and tonight, i watched an episode of Grey's Anatomy, and i heard a song that i liked. and i thought, "oh, i'll download it!" so, i looked up the song to find out what it was. and then went to go open iTunes to download it. oh yeah, itunes doesn't work. then, i went to open Frostwire (illegal downloading which i try to stay away from...). oh yeah, that doesn't work either. ok, so i'll find the song somewhere online and use my sound capture program to get it that way. hmm...that doesn't work either.

and earlier today i thought, "omg i have to update this playlist on my ipod!" but i can't, because again, i can't get into itunes!!!

it worked last night, yeah. but i'm not going to redownload it every time i want it to work. that'd be like, everyday.

UGH! so frustrating!!!

the problem it says is: [insert program name here].exe is not a valid Win32 application.

THAT'S the error message that i get for everything. and like the other night when i redownloaded itunes, i went to go install it and it was like, "what program should we use to open this file?" and i was like, "umm.....itunes?" and it worked.

but today, when i was trying to download a free dvd player (to get the VM screencaps) it said,

COMPUTER: What program should we use to open this file?
JULIE: Umm.....itunes.....?
COMPUTER: Nope, sorry.
JULIE: Ummm.....windows media player?
COMPUTER: Not this time.
JULIE: Realplayer?
COMPUTER: Try again!
JULIE: .........?
COMPUTER: You lose.

and i lost the game. my house was stormed with elephants and dinosaurs. just like in Jumanji. i don't think there were any dinosaurs in that movie. that's just what it felt like.

anyways. YOU are in luck because i can still blog. i guess that's all that matters. :)

so, currently, it's 3:23am. thursday morning. thursday i am working 1:30pm until 8am on friday. and then another day off!!!!!

today on Celebrity Baby Blog there was an article on Sarah Jane Morris, from the tv show Brothers and Sisters. more importantly, she is married to Ned, the drummer from Rooney. and they are expecting a baby (boy?) in January. and the article was all about how perfectly eco-friendly she is. it made me really jealous. her and Ned drive a grease car. i'm really jealous of that. she was on Jimmy Kimmel once and told this really funny story of her and Ned stealing vegetable oil from restaurants in the middle of the night.

anyways. my point is, their baby is due in January. and KARA AND I are going to see Rooney on 13 December. this makes me nervous. Dear Baby: PLEASE do not come before the concert!!! Maybe this is being selfish. BUT PLEASE, just stay in there where it's nice and warm and dark and better. And stay healthy until your due date. Ok, thanks. Bye.

also, she is beautiful. and so is Ned. and i love his curly hair.

ok.

3:30am. i should go to bed. but, i just have to get up in half an hour. is there a point? ugh, i don't know.

this baby has been destroying his bottles. at his 10pm feeding, he ate 2oz in like, less than 10 minutes. and i even said to his mom, "wow, he is killing that bottle!"

and then his mom was all concerned because she is worried that he won't be able to defend himself when he gets into fist fights. and so i said, "well, hopefully he will never be in a situation where he will need to fight back like that." and she looked at me like i had 4 heads and purple eyes.

i try my best.

that baby is so beautiful. he's got a full head of blonde hair. so cute. and i saw pictures tonight from his first bath.

ok, you know what i love about babies?? aside from like, most things. i love when they are sucking on pacifiers. it is the cutest thing. especially when they are asleep. and it starts to fall out of their mouths, and then they realize it, and it shoots back in. it's like, instant smile. it's so cute.

i can't imagine sucking on a pacifier. like, it's supposed to be so soothing. but i would think it would just be distracting. like, how can you focus on falling asleep when you also have to focus on keeping this thing in your mouth? i don't get it. my mom tells me that i never used a pacifier. i guess even as a baby i was confused about these things.

ok. 3:42am. maybe i should lie down for 10 minutes. is that smart?

this morning i went back to sleep at 7:45am. and i didn't shut off the phone, because i was technically still working until 8am. and then i woke up at 9:39 because someone called. and so i immediately got up and unplugged the cord. and then at 10:45 we had a fire drill.

OH i was not happy about that. i was sleeping. and i didn't like it even more because today was supposed to be my day off, but I STILL had to go outside and see everybody. in my pajamas and slippers, no less. it was the worst.

not that i totally care about being woken up. i mean, i was up all night working, they weren't. i have reason to sleep during the day. i just didn't want to see anybody! ugh that's the worst. i really need an invisibility cloak.

ugh i hate fire drills. and this one is sooooo effing loud. it's like a steamship is blowing it's horn right in one ear, while someone is holding a jackhammer up to the other. it's the worst.

and they never happen in the afternoon or evening. ALWAYS in the morning. ALWAYS while i'm sleeping.

ok. i have been complaining a lot in this entry. and i'm sure you don't want to listen to it.

it's 3:49am. i should feed Miss Tuesday before i go downstairs for a feeding.

i washed my hair again today and twisted it up into a bun. hopefully i will have sexy hair again on thursday.

i am taking the baby girls to their doctor's appointments in the afternoon. that's why i have to go into work early. Courtney is taking someone else to an appointment, and so is another staff.

3:51am. hopefully in an hour i will be in bed. unless he kills the bottle in 5 minutes again.

ok! hope you have a wonderful thursday!! 30 Rock is on tonight! set your tv recording devices! or, whatever. or, if you're like me, you'll have to suffer until friday when it's online!!! alright!

oh, i wanted to post this video. it's mainly for my mom. she loves it when unlikely animals take care of each other. in this case, it's a tiny dog and a cat that fall in love with each other. Darren posted it in his blog and i wanted to show you all.

ok! for real now, GOODNIGHT! one thousand times goodnight.

VERONICA MARS STOLE MY TEAL JACKET

you have no idea how hard this is to write.

for those of you who may be unfamiliar with the teal jacket saga, let me give you a brief recap:


i had this teal jacket from the Gap. it was the best jacket ever. not only was it the best jacket ever, but it was my absolute favorite thing i have ever owned in my life. i so freaking loved that jacket. notice how i am using past tense.

one day, i had the jacket draped over my bag and i was walking to my mom's car, parked at Hampshire College. 20 minutes later, once we have reached our destination, i get out of the car and the jacket is gone.

we back track to Hampshire College. search the parking lot. no jacket. no jacket in the lost and found at pub safety. no jacket anywhere.

i posted the lost jacket online to see if anyone picked it up. nothing. i went to pub safety every day asking them if anyone turned it in. nothing.

and i never saw the teal jacket again.

UNTIL.

kerianne and i were watching Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium one night. starring Dusty Hoffman and Nat Port. Nat Port enters a scene, and what is she wearing.....MY TEAL JACKET.

NAT PORT STOLE IT!!!!!

i still hold this against her.

and then, just the other night, i was watching episode PLAN B of Veronica Mars, season 2. Veronica is sitting in class in the beginning of the episode wearing a familiar jacket. MY FAMILIAR JACKET!!!!!!

(so, here's the deal with these pictures...since my computer can no longer open any programs, i am (really) not able to play the dvd in the disc drive. so, i cannot get good quality screencaps. what i did instead, was play the dvd on my tv, and photograph it. i think veronica would agree that it was pretty good detective work.)









Veronica and Eli, the "tough guy with a heart" leader of Neptune's biker gang.


that's the reflection of my lamp in Veronica's hair.


Veronica and Logan, the son of a famous movie star-turned murderer. (i'm rooting for VM and Logan.)


VM and Logan again. AND, in this episode, there was totally a Rushmore reference. did anyone else notice it? at the very beginning, they announce that Logan has won an internship in Mayor Steve Guttenburg's Office, and they cut to Logan and he's reading a newspaper. he looks up and says, "did someone say my name?" which, is the opening scene of Rushmore. how they introduce Max Fisher.




AND THEN! if wearing the teal jacket just wasn't enough, she HAD to go meet up with her ex-boyfriend, Leo. the one who i am in love with. the super gorgeous ex-police officer, current security guard.


they just had to meet for coffee. i guess if you want to make your ex-boyfriend jealous by wearing something super hott, the teal jacket is the way to go.




whoops, how did that one get in there......


she looks so innocent.


and there you have it. Veronica Mars stole my teal jacket. i'm still in shock.

and at the end of my 'nat port stole my teal jacket' entry, i posted some pictures of other things that Nat Port had stolen from me. they included Gael Garcia Bernal.

and now, i will post some pictures of other things Kristin Bell has stolen from me on tv shows.










yep. she got to make out with Zachary Quinto A LOT on Heroes. and it was super sexy. first the jacket, and then Zesty Queso.

but, how can you hate on KBell?? she's so cute and funny.

oh, i can't hate on KBell.


this whole thing really just makes me realize how freaking trendy i am. i mean, the teal jacket was featured in movies and on television. pretty much, this means that i am super stylish and should be famous asap.

wow. now i feel sad. those teal jacket pictures just brings back so many memories of the better days.

ok. i have to take a break. i am going out. it's currently 7:21pm. i never went to the post office today. i just wanted to sit around. is that so bad? i don't think so.

but, now i have things to do.

have a good night. i will try.

20 October 2009

lallygagging

hey there. how's it? things here are good. i had a sneeze attack earlier tonight. but, it's over. it wasn't fun.

i'm excited because tomorrow is a day off! meaning, from 8am until 10pm i am not working! this is good news, always. especially after a long day of work. like today!

i worked until 8:15am. then slept until 12:30pm. yes, i know what you're thinking, "but julie, didn't you have staff meeting at 12:30pm?" and the answer is yes, yes i did. i set my alarm for 11:20am. hit snooze until around 12:15. then fell back to sleep. Ruby Tuesday woke me up by licking my face around 12:30. and then i woke up, got dressed, ate a yogurt, and went to staff meeting for 1pm.

it wasn't a problem.

oh!! i know how much you love it when i talk about how awesome my hair looks. so, let's get going! i washed my hair on monday afternoon and while it was still wet, twisted it up into a bun. it's long enough now that i don't even need a hair elastic! and then i left it there allll day and allll night until tuesday afternoon. then i took it out and it was all curly and pretty! it looked like i had used a curling iron!!! but no! then i threw in my yellow headband. i was pretty trendy today.

but then i thought, "uh oh, i hope my coworkers don't think i was late because i was curling my hair." yeah, it looked THAT good.

so, i got my iTunes to work. remember how none of my programs are working since i got my latest virus?? well, i decided the only one i really care about is iTunes. so, i had to redownload it. i think the problem is that the programs can't find the program to open them with. does that make sense?

it's like, the guests all showed up at the house, but no one can find the door.

hey wow. that kind of rocked. still creative at 2am. that's me! ok, technically it's 1:59am.

so, i don't know what's going on with the rest of the computer. i've got my new one all picked out.

tonight was an exciting night. i bought me and kara our Rooney tickets!!!!! 13 december at The Middle East in Cambridge!!! meet and greet after the show??? YOU BET. heck yeah we're staying. i BETTER find my Rooney t-shirt before that. omg the chance to MEET and GREET Rooney!?!?!?! that's like, ZERO DEGREES.

i'm super excited.

i wonder if Robert will remember me after our last intimate encounter.....

during one of the songs, he leaned forward with his mic and was right over the audience. and, he looked RIGHT AT ME, and raised his eyebrows. they stayed up for a second, and then he lowered them. RIGHT AT ME. at meeee!!!! seriously, i think a part of me actually died. but like, i didn't even realize it at first. like, while it was happening. it was like my entire body froze. and i couldn't do anything. except stare back at him. and like, i remembered it right after it happened. and then i forgot about it. because, it was so amazing. i remembered it on the way home. and i flipped out in the car. HE LOVES ME.

yep. our intimate moment. that we shared like, 4 years ago. awesome.

anyways. tonight's episode of Veronica Mars was a bit scary. she was having these crazy dreams about all the students who died in this big bus crash at the beginning of season 2. and, she was supposed to be on the bus that crashed, but at the last minute, missed it, and got a ride from someone else. and in her dreams she was on the bus talking to everyone, getting clues on how to solve what really happened.

it was just scary.

BUT. i have some horrible Veronica Mars news. i can't share it with you tonight because i don't have proof yet. proof = screencaps. which i will get tomorrow. but, it's horrible. horrible news. i cried. ok, i'm embarrassed to admit that. but, i did. just be prepared. this news may shock you. it may rattle your soul and make your skin crawl. so, just be prepared. i was quite shocked. and now i can't stop thinking about it.

that's all i will say for now. i will post wednesday. i need to prepare myself. i haven't even said it out loud yet. not yet. tomorrow.

ok. i have no idea what you're thinking right now. but, it's probably not what i'm thinking. therefore, this bad, horrible news, probably won't be as bad and horrible to you as it is to me.

END. enough talking about it. you will have to wait and see.

i made a chocolate cake tonight. so what! who cares?! i just wanted to. and i made it from scratch and used the new baking pan my mom got for me. it worked awesome!!

but Ruby Tuesday was soooo curious as to what i was doing!!! she was just sitting on the floor looking up at me while i was mixing everything together. so, i brought over a chair to the counter and put her on it. so she could see what i was doing better. and she sat there for a while being very interested. and then she went and got her leopard print toy. and brought it into the kitchen. and then jumped into the cabinet.

she's the cutest thing ever.

oh! speaking of cutest things ever.

tonight at work i was in the staff office and then i hear, "JULIE!!" from outside the door. and i open the door and the resident with the two little girls standing there, a girl in each arm, and one of them is screaming. she says, "can you help me?" um, duh! they are the sweetest girls ever.

so, i took the 8 month old while she fed the 17 month old. and then everybody calmed down. but then she asked me to feed the 8 month old her bottle and try and rock her to sleep while she tried to put the 17 month old to sleep.

so, i went into the living room with the baby and the bottle and sat down in the comfy rocking chair. and i rocked the baby girl and fed her the bottle. and after about 15 minutes she fell asleep. her mom had more trouble than expected getting her big sister to sleep, so i ended up sitting and rocking her for about an hour. which was fine. of course i didn't mind.

so sweet.

and then! i got to leave work at 8:30 and come home, which was nice. a lot. because i had a chance to do some things instead of ending work and then immediately starting again.

my favorite Hanson song just came on my shuffle. Georgia. that song is seriously the best.

speaking of awesome songs by bands with three gorgeous brothers...... ummm..... so in this bonus episode of Jonas on the disc i got, there was an episode that was about Kevin being in love with the president of the Scandinavian Jonas Brothers Fan Club. and he sang a song about it. KEVIN SANG a SONG. kevin jonas. the one who never sings any songs. i had never heard his singing voice until this episode.

and let me tell you: he should be singing all the songs. he's got the best voice out of the three of them. WAY WAY 100% than Nick. and the song, 'i left my heart in scandinavia' is super cute.

oh, i'll just post the video for you to watch. no big deal. but you should watch it and marvel at Kevin's singing. and then ponder the question, "why doesn't kevin sing more?" well, because then Joe would have nothing to do. he'd be as useful as The Frankster. (frankie jonas.....they're little brother.)

did i talk about the horrible (awesome) Zooey Deschanel Cotton commerical that's running on NBC.com?? ugh. i was thinking about it again the other day. UGH. Zooey. she's too cute. and her clothes are too perfectly vintage. she just got married to the lead singer of Death Cab for Cutie. that's right, right? yes. i believe so.

speaking of clothes. i need a new pair of Gap lounge pants. my black ones that i have all of a sudden have like, a million holes in them. i mean, i can still wear them. but, they have holes everywhere. it's weird. man i love these pants. i'm wearing them right now. they are so freaking comfortable.

i got a Gap email yesterday that was like, 'bring this email into a gap store and you will recieve a coupon for either 5, 15, 25, or 50 percent off!!' i was excited, but i doubt i'll use it. plus, i don't have a working printer.

ugh. i just want to stay home all day tomorrow. meaning wednesday. but i have to go to the post office. and i have to get dressed because....WHAT IF i see the ruggedly handsome postal worker?!?! i haven't seen him in a couple weeks.

man. i'm getting tired. it's 2:42am. i suppose i could get into bed. last night i didn't fall asleep until around 3:20am. then had to get up again at 4am.

my mom and kara are having a mother-daughter day today. i'm jealous. i wish i could be at home.

i'm thinking of maybe seeing Where the Wild Things Are tonight. it's playing at the nice theater in Hanover. it's between that one, and Capitalism: A Love Story. the michael moore film. but, going out to the movies would not be staying home all day. and i might just do that.

OH! i have to take out my air conditioners today. i'm going to do it. and i will not drop them out onto the street!!!!

OK!!! i think i've said everything for now. i posted the Kevin video. that was the main thing.

have a great wednesday. um, it's the 21st day of october!!! i can't believe it. today on my notebook for staff meeting, i wrote, 20 September. and then i was like, "what?" then i switched it.

hey!!! Mmmbop just came on!!!!! ALRIGHT!!!! not the CD/radio version. the totes awesome one from the Hanson: Live and Electric cd that i have!!!!! it's sooo good!!!

OH!! i know what else i wanted to tell you about.

so, on monday i was standing in the check-out line at the grocery store and i was glancing into the drink cooler case at the end of the lane, and i saw that Dasani had a Lime flavored water in a semi-fancy bottle. this intrigued me. so i bought it! and it was delish! not too limey, but not too watery. i enjoyed it.

and i was drinking it and i thought of the time i asked for a lime flavor shot in my hot cocoa at Rao's in Amherst. lime and chocolate!

ok. now that's really it. have a great day! i'll post later with my horrible news. :)

people of the floor

that sounds like a scary halloween costume. "i'm going as a floor person."

anyways. there's a guy here from Home Deport measuring for new carpet. it's 12:54pm. i've been awake for them since 11:30am!!!! they said they would come between 12-1.

so, i went to sleep around 3:20am.
woke up at 4am.
went to sleep at 5am.
woke up at 7am.
went to sleep at 8:15am.
woke up at 11:30am

and i'm still up now. what a crazy schedule! but this morning, it was horrible. so, so horrible. i got back into bed at 7:45am. and i hadn't been laying down for 5 minutes when i heard a big truck.

i assumed it was a truck coming for The Little Store. because we just got our government food recently, it seemed.

but the truck got closer and closer and closer until it was right outside the house. and i said to myself, "you've got to be kidding me" and i jumped out of bed and went to the window and sure freaking enough, it was the huge truck with the government food.

coming to deliver at 7:45am. and it's my job to unload the truck, carry in the huge heavy boxes, and unpack the boxes. ugh it's the worst.

luckily, this time there were only 3 boxes. a box of pears. a box of carrots. and a box with many, many bags of mozzarella sticks. i was excited about the last one because we've never gotten that before. thanks, government!!!

i am definitely going to take some pears.

anyways, i was mad the truck came. i am also mad that the truck always comes before 8am. like, why?? can't they come later? when it's not so cold outside? when you're more awake to carry huge boxes of food around? when i'm not working!?!

anyways. then it took me a while to fall back to sleep because i was so awake.

UGH it's already 1pm. this is when i should be waking up! now it's like, too late to sleep for a long time and still go to the post office. i should go do all my errands now, and then come back and take a nap.

UGH but i want to sleep more now!! i'm pretty excited that i have a disc of Veronica Mars and a disc of Jonas waiting for me at the post office.

OH! there was a girl from Veronica Mars on Heroes! she played the disappearing sorority girl who was trying to get Claire to join. and i was watching the show, and there was some line about Claire's mom being in a sorority and i immediately thought of Veronica's mom and not Claire's mom.

which is STILL FUNNY, because Kristin Bell, who plays VM, was on Heroes as Elle who got to make out with Sylar in lots of really sexy, steamy scenes.

phew. ok the guy's gone. ok, it's 1:09pm.

should i sleep? or should i errand? i will sleep. the post office is open until 5. i am tired a lot.


ok. have a great day. i will talk to you later!

aaannndddd.... WHOA!!

holy man. i just watched two episodes of Heroes. AAHHH!! the episode from two weeks ago was SO GOOD! THE LAST SCENE!!!!!!!!!!!! holy man. so freaking good. and then i watched the episode from last week. still so good! i wonder what's gonna happen. it's on again tonight (monday), and it will be up on Netflix to instantly watch on wednesday. can't wait! ZQ! what a hottie!

anyways, the real reason i wanted to blog right now very quickly is this:

my old friend Windows Police Pro Virus came to visit tonight, quite unexpected and most unwelcome. this time he was acting a bit different. i couldn't get him to stop making things pop up on my computer. even after i "ended his process." that usually works. but not tonight. so, finally, all the bad programs were removed from my computer, and i restarted it. for a clean slate.

and now, not everything is working. there aren't as many programs in the bar on the bottom. not all of my desktop links are working. things just seem funny. it's like, something's missing.

if i may, i would like to explain it using a Heroes reference.

my laptop is quite like Nathan Petrelli. he's there on the outside, but on the inside, i know there's a Sylar lurking. he's just not quite the same.

success! awesome Heroes metaphor.

anyways. so, something is wrong with the computer. i know it. i can feel it. good thing i've worked over 60 hours since last wednesday. more hours = more money = more expensive laptop.

alright. that's all for tonight. i have tomorrow off!!!! meaning, i am off from 8am until 10pm.

although, i have floor people coming. i thought they were coming on tuesday to measure for new carpet in my apartment. but, turns out they are coming tomorrow. between noon and 1pm. super early. not excited about that. also not excited to hear what they have to say about the furniture moving situation. i do not want to be a part of it at all.

anyways. floor people. then i have the day off. i have to go to the grocery store. and maybe to another store. i can't think of it right now.

i'll blog more on monday. i'm tired all of a sudden.

oh! i was able to watch Jim and Pam get married this morning whilst eating breakfast. yeah, totally cried my eyes out. a lot. so sweet. it was like an intense mix of crying and laughing. it was just so happy.

okay! have a great monday. i can't believe it's monday. i have no idea what day it feels like. not monday, though.

talk to you later!!!
