I would climb a mountain high.

My journal hasn't been terribly fluffy or amusing or pop-culture laden lately. Who have I become?! So here's a collection for Friday afternoon.

* This morning on the news they had a "story" about people in the northeast in the -237489 degree weather who were taking cups of hot water being thrown up into the air and coming down as ice crystals. I rolled my eyes at such stupid non-news information being aired, but immediately felt completely jealous that I couldn't go outside and try it. It's a balmy 24 degrees here in Chicago, not enough to flash freeze.

* I wrote a short story featuring Tammy Faye for my packet I sent off this week. I came up with the idea right before I found out she was on The Surreal Life, which I thought was impeccable timing but then I've had no urge to watch the show, even though it also feature Trischelle, my favorite horrible Real World Las Vegas chacracter who I almost dressed as for the Sin City play party (if by "dressed" I mean "wearing a name tag that says 'Trischelle'", which I do because I wouldn't look good in a sex apron). So instead of watching the show, I've been going to Tammy Faye's website [http://www.tammyfaye.com/]. Under the guise of "research" for my story. I'm not sure which is my favorite: the daily feature which repeats itself and just changes the date, or the daily mail.

* Emma Caulfield (aka Anya from Buffy) is in a new show premiering next week also starring Jason Priestly. Um, I have no idea what else to say about this.

* We've been watching season one Angel like it's going out of style, in part just so we can get to season two. I'm amazed at how I went from "hating him" to "hopelessly addicted". The show is so erratic in its writing quality, which doesn't help, since some episodes I'm ready to kneel down and pledge eternal love and devotion to Cordelia because she's fabulous and smart and funny and other show I feel like her voice is nails on a chalkboard that's located half an inch below my skin. My netflix is slowly being converted to only television shows -- coming up in the queue is the season of Sex and the City I missed and Curb Your Enthusiasm, which I'm sort of suprised I liked since I didn't really get into Seinfeld.

* This last one is a rather dirty and sad confession: I'm amused by the Arby's "oven mitt" in the ads.


Back to work so I can get out of here by 4:30....

Oddly enough, our dear Emma used to play Mr. Priestley's love interest on Beverly Hills 90210 ;)

Trishelle is vile.

You know that I dig you Ray, and I'm feeling you about Trishelle (sluttiness is the best revenge after all).
But the Arby's "oven mitt" makes baby Jesus cry.
