I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

everybody's gone surfin', surfin' usa

Got yelled at by an old lady today.

Cause we're closed tomorrow for inservice.

Which is not my fault.

Neither is the fact that her books are still in transit and that all the branches are closed tomorrow so there won't be anyone in to mail them to her.

About inservice, "that's the dumbest thing I've ever hear of."

Guess we'll see if she's right tomorrow.

The boyfriend and I watched the Manchurian Candidate tonight.


Scale of awesome says around 5/10. It was seriously twisted, I was lost for a while but the ending cleared things up. Not what I was expecting at all. Meryl Streep, Denzel Washington, Jon Voigt and my favorite Liev Schreiber.

Theoretically, if you go to the past in the future, then your future lies in the past. This is a picture of you in the future - in the past.

Love it, was just talking about that movie today with Girlscout.

Team Awesome dealt with some major drama today.

But that's why we're Team Awesome cause we have to be awesome to get through it.

Surfin' USA - Beach Boys

interesting to think that these guys were the heartthrobs of that decade.

i enjoy their synchronized swaying during the 1:40's.

changing every day, every possible way

"Booze Cakes...sounds like a term of endearment. Hey Booze Cakes."
"That's fantastic."
the joys of training new employees.

Today was mostly filled with paperwork. But I got to spend the majority of it with Girlscout so it was fun. We're Team Awesome.

Joys of professionalism - Wrote up a summary on what you need to know to work at one of the branches since a lot of our people are gone so others are filling in. The summary turned out to be 3 pages. And I keep adding more and more.

After that it was e-mails and scheduling.

And then I ended the day with the joy that is incident and citizen injury reports. But hey, at least I got to check out the cute fire and rescue guys.

"Why are you listening to the serpant?.....Don't eat the fruit....Don't eat the fruit!....Women."

Got 3rd Rock From the Sun season one from Target for like 6 bucks. Loving it. Now I have to find season two. Wonder if the library has it. Or WorldCat. I love WorldCat.

"I'm not mooning, I'm obsessing, there's a difference."

Tomorrow is a day for sleeping. And running errands. And then sleeping some more. Unless of course I get called in. Which would be fine. I don't think I know what to do with myself outside of work nowadays anyway.

"I have class in five minutes. And that's just the first of my reservations."
oh speaking of, I should check the syllabus and figure out if I'm missing something for class on Saturday.

Songs of the night:

"Dreams" The Cranberries

used to listen to them a lot in high school. probably drove juwanna nuts. the joy of roommates at a dorm school. but she did save me from the killer dresser so i love her.

Think this is my favorite though....
"Just My Imagination"

I think Shannen looked a little more coordinated on Dancing With the Stars.
P3 got all the coolest acts at the time - The Cranberries, Michelle Branch, Barenaked Ladies, Goo Goo Dolls, Fastball. Yes, I'm a Charmed nerd, get used to it. It's either this or Drew Barrymore really. I can always throw in a Friends reference if it would make you feel better.

"I fold like a cheap hooker who got slapped in the stomach by a fat guy with sores on his face...oh, I'm out." The one with all the poker. Love that episode. Yes I know it's title. It's not like it's that hard of one to remember.

"Your money's mine, Green!"
"Your fly's open, Gellar!"

OUT!

Sketch and Edit Discuss a Serious Matter

"Do I smell burning crab?"
"It's cajun!"
More Frasier, I feel like I should finish the series. I had to keep watching until Niles and Daphne got together but now that they're together then it was until he proposed. And now he proposed so does this mean I have to watch 'til the wedding? Then the kids? Man.

Work flew by, as it usually does, and Team Awesome was reunited for two hours, huzzah! Then came home and sat out on the balcony with my big fat cat. It's good I live on the third floor since that keeps him from jumping and running away. I'm grateful he's a big chicken. I read half of Book #5. It's alright so far, but I don't know a lot about ships so I'm a little confused. I'll figure it out, it's pretty intriguing.

aaannd look, it's Bellamy Young. Who also shares my birthday. She's guest starred in pretty much all of my favorite shows. Frasier, NCIS, Grey's Anatomy, Castle, plus the awesomeness that was Ellen Darling in Dirty Sexy Money. Too bad about those high heels. I'm telling you, you really have to plan out your entire outfit when you kill someone in a jealous rage. Although, that would mean you'd have to predict when you were going to have a jealous rage so that you could dress properly. There was actually an entire Sketch and Edit dedicated to that moment. Here, I'll find it.

Sketch and Edit Discuss a serious matter
Edit - *screams as Ellen Darling slips and hits her head on sink after unsuccessfully trying to kill her husband* "Oh my god! Did that just happened?"
Sketch – "That’s what you get when you go to kill your husband in the wrong shoes."
E – "You really think changing out of those stilettos would have made it successful?"
S – "Couldn’t hurt."
E – "She was drunk and filled with rage. I don’t think she had a chance to think ‘Hmm, I should go put on my combat boots before I grab a fireplace poker to kill my husband while he’s in the shower.’ Clearly she was far too inebriated for rational thought."
S – "It was still a bad idea. She needed something with traction. Every psycho killer should know that."
E – "Something with a non-stick grip?"
S – "I like how her feet went all the way over her head like that."
E – "That’s a lot of glass. He shouldn’t be kneeling next to her barefoot."
S – "Maybe he wore shower shoes."
E – "In his own shower?"
S – "See, these shows are filled with faulty logic!"
E – "Kinda like how Denny came back from the dead?"
S – "Yeah, that’s just stupid. Dead Denny must die."

But the great thing about Bellamy is I play this game where, if I see her name in the title credits, I guess what hair color she's going to have. Cause you never know if she's going to be a blonde or brunette. It's amusing. We're alike in that aspect.


Songs for the night:
"A Punk" by Vampire Weekend


I remember first seeing these guys on SNL a few years ago, he was wearing this like giant scarf that was all I could look at. I didn't even see any of the background singers, just the giant scarf and strings sticking out of his guitar.

"Marry You" Glee cast version

Love Burt's dance moves. Totally make the song.

Tomorrow is a halfday then possible movie with some family and friends. Thinking food then Bridesmaids! Cause it looks hysterical. And I need a night out that's not class or camp or work related.

Here's Bellamy if you have no idea who I'm talking about.


yes i'm a nerd. but you knew that already.

OUT!

If you Write this Down I'll Be There For You and Buy You a New Life because I'm Jealous(y) and I Want You Back - 90s music week Day Four

Not a good day for Team Awesome. But we still rock. And derby is Saturday so life is good.

Think you've got the template down by now, if not, scroll down a post.

1. "I Will Buy You a New Life" Everclear 1997

love it.

2. "Jealousy" Natalie Merchant 1995

song is still frequently in my head. mostly because i sing it when i see it. awesome song.

3. "Write this Down" George Strait 1999

So you'll remember what I forgot to say. I had one of those moments today. Still haven't remembered what it is I was gonna ask her. He really is the king of country.

4. "I'll Be There For You" the Rembrandts 1994

Did they sing anything other than this song? Did they have to really?
Love this song, and the video. Friends is 3rd in my top 5. Quote something I'll tell you the episode.

5. "I Want You Back" N'Sync 1998

I'm trying really really hard not to laugh at this video.....
It's not working.
But I totally still jam out to the song. I was more of an N'Sync fan than a BSB one, sorry BFF and favorite Aussie, it's true. I did like "Everybody" but other than that, N'Sync all the way! haha.
