Another thrilling weekend update...


1. It is hot here. Like, it was 80 degrees today and even now, I have both fans on upstairs because it is so muggy.

2. If my damn ear would stop hurting, I wouldn't care about the snot, coughing, etc. Stoopid ear.

3. Because I have zero attention span, I started reading the Pamela Aiden books and promptly put them down to start devouring the Love Com manga. It's really cute, although I like the anime better. I guess because all the characters speak in Osaka dialect, which I find endearing. Hmm, what can I pick up next?

4. I've decided, quite abruptly and randomly, that I want the extended recordings of the LotR soundtracks. But they are a bit expensive. For why does not iTunes sell them? *sadface*

5. I spent the weekend watching the ANTM: Cycle 8 marathon on VH1. I have no freakin' clue why I like this show, but I love that I can Tivo all the episodes and fast forward through the boring bits (of which there are several).

6. I also saw my cousin last night, whom I haven't spoken with in a couple of years, and we talked and talked and talked and it was really nice. Everyone always said we were a lot alike, although they admit Becky has a more sunshine-y disposition. In other words, I am teh emo. Oh, well. It was great catching up and we exchanged emails so we can keep in touch (she lives on the coast with her mom).

Is that it? Yes, I think so. I'm going to watch Fellowship of the Rings and eat some popped corn, as JP likes to call it.

ANTM Love!!!

Huzzah for ANTM. I watched the end of cycle 8 (that's the one where they end up in China, right?) Not sure of the appeal either, but it's amusing. Maybe I get sucked in because I can't wait to see the results of the photo shoots. The Great Wall ones were very interesting. Oh, and let me know what you think of the Mozart book - my dad is a big fan, and he hasn't read/heard of that one and I figure it would be a good b-day gift. Well, at least in August, hehe. Kick that cold, girl! I hope the ear pain goes away.

Yup, it's the China one. I looove watching the results of the photo shoots! And often, I can't believe the girls in the pictures are the same ones on the TV. Gives me hope that if I shellacked my face with makeup, I might not look half bad. LOL...

Also, I am green with envy that they get to go around the world, making Zoolander faces. I mean, I do that in the mirror while I am brushing my teeth every night. What's the big deal? ^____^

I'll let you know about the book; I've heard good things about it.

I punched the cold, but then it gave me a wedgie. :(
