Do you remember random lines or phrases from movies that you use ALL THE TIME?
I'm not talking about "Do they speak English in What?!?" (CardioGirl knows what movie this is from , LOL.)
I mean truly random.
Like I remember the way the chick said "dishwasher" in Dragon. So every time I hear or say the word "dishwasher" I think of it being said in that way: "Dishwashaaaaaaaa"
?
It would be fine if everyone had seen and remembered that one scene from Dragon. But only Evan and I seem to remember it, so it only makes sense to us...
urrently, everyone I know is going through some major shit.
Health problems, financial problems, marriage/relationship problems.
And then when I turn on the TV it's John Edwards or Tiger Woods or Jesse James cheating on their wife. Or the whores that cheated with them releasing some new "shocking" information.
Seriously.
What the ever-loving hell is going on?
I just want to be in a coma for a few months so that 1) I don't feel any pain and 2) I don't have to worry about every effing thing all the geedee time and 3) I need a break.
Earl (My name is Earl) was in a coma for a while and dreamed he was married to the love of his life.
Maybe I could dream I was in a spa & getting massaged by Mark Valley, Taye Diggs, Adam Rodriguez & Ken Watanabe while Hugh Laurie plays the piano & Hugh Jackman feeds me chocolate.
Remember the dad on "Everybody Hates Chris"? Or Damon on "Friday after Next"? That's Terry Crews. The Family Crews is his reality show.
I love this family! I always enjoyed seeing Terry Crews' acting, but seeing him as a person brings a whole new appreciation to his work for me. He's been married for 20 years. They have 5 kids (4 girls, 1 boy).
It's WONDERFUL to see positive black families represented on TV. If you're not black, you probably don't think about this. But imagine if every show on TV was like a live action "Family Guy". Not the best representation of any group of people, let alone all white people.
We (black people) see a lot of gang bangers, pimps, drug dealers, criminals & buffoons. But other than the "token" black guy, we don't get a lot of positive representations of "us". Definitely NOT in reality TV.
Let me try to think of another positive black reality show...
A man named Christopher Chance (maybe?) is some kind of spy that other people call when they can't do the job themselves.
I must admit that the lead in this show (Mark Valley) is my "totally hot in a stereotypical Californiaesque" type of man (even though I claim not to find blonde men attractive). His looks have nothing to do with why I continue to watch the show.
I watch the show because a) it's action b) OMFG Mark Valley is hot and perfect masturbation fantasy material 3) the show looks like a movie! I mean the way it's shot & whatnot.
I wish they did that more often. I wonder if it's expensive?
Who cares? I love it.
Every week is a new situation, new people, new ways for Chi McBride's character to get fed up with Chance's risk taking, LOL.
You have to watch this show if you like action! :-) You can watch full episodes at Fox.com.
We all know about Kirstie Alley's battle with weight.
I don't care about that.
I just wanted to see this woman who is so obsessed with Jamie Foxx that she can't stop Twittering about him.
She's funny! I'd be her friend. I'll watch the rest of the season just for her snarky sense of humor.
OMG at least watch the first episode so you can see her call the black fitness trainer and tell him she's "down with brown but black is whack" while her black stylist is sitting beside her trying not to crack up.
No, I do not understand my current obsession with all things Jersey.
It started with Real Housewives of NJ. Then Jersey native Wendy Williams gets her own talk show. Then I had to watch "The Jersey Shore" because I wanted to see this little oompa loompa with a bouffant get punched in the face and I had to keep watching after I saw that episode.
Dudes (Ladies too).
If you thought Snooky was tanorexic, you will not believe Olivia. She's darker than me. She's like Indian from India dark. She said something like "Yeah, my skin might look like leather in the future, but I look good today!"
I think she has a bit of ADD too.
Whatever.
If you're a Jerseyholic the way I (apparently) am. Check this show out, LOL.
How long is this post anyway?
There's more, but Blogger just told me that my labels can't be more than 200 characters, so I'll save some for another time when I'm too hyped to sleep.
Where r u @ now? We r trying to get everyones address for our big 20 year reunion. Happy to see u on facebook.
I sent her this message:
I'm still in the same town. I still won't be going to the reunion, LOL.
Yes. I'm antisocial. I thought you knew that? *rolling eyes*
Anyway, I don't understand reunions. I don't understand people who say that High School years were the best years of their life.
...
I still won't be going to the reunion, LOL.If that's true, you have a sad life. For serious.
When I was in HS, I got along with everybody. There were no cliques here. Had I stayed in Maryland, I think I would have hung with the Valley Girls. I still had friends who fit into each "group" though, so I don't know.
But anyway, the people with whom I went to HS were not my "friends". I didn't hang out with them after school or on the weekends. I wasn't in the band here (They required marching. FUCK THAT SHIT!) They only had football and basketball for sports here. (In other words, no girls softball, no tennis, no swimming like they had in MD). I'm not the cheering type. (I know you're shocked by that revelation, but pick your jaw up off the floor, please.)
If it weren't for the fact that I moved here in the middle of 9th grade, and was therefore a new attraction, I probably would have gone though high school unnoticed. I mean, I wrote for the school paper. I was in Math & Spanish Club & Future leaders of America & shit but so what?
Pttttttt.
I see a lot of my high school friends around town. (They are getting old, LOL. Not me though...).
I don't feel that I have anything in common with them.
Even if our children go to the same school. Even if their sons are on the football team with Evan. Even if they too are single moms with Multiple Sclerosis.
So what?
Not really interested in your life story...
I mean, if I haven't seen or heard from you in 20 years...what do we really have to talk about?
If we were true friends, we would have kept in touch.
People come into your life for a reason or a season, right? I knew you HS people because it was school or get the eff out of MD's house and support my damned self @ 16 years of age.
I'm not saying you weren't nice or funny or whatever. I'm just saying I had to be there. I would happily have stayed in my room listening to Prince & reading Stephen King books all the damned time if I could have gotten away with it.
20 years later, I'm happy to stay in my damned house watching TV & talking to my online friends than go and see a bunch of people from my former life who still want to call me Angy.
You are the scum of the earth. Fucking bike building suicidal LOSER!
I cannot believe that 1) You were able to fake being a decent enough man for Sandra Bullock to marry you when, pre your sorry ass, she said she had no interest in getting married and 2) That you were having an affair with some tattoed slutwhore for a whole Goddamned YEAR!!!!!
Sandra Bullock loved you AND your children. Didn't she adopt (or was about to adopt) your daughter to get her the fuck away from your ex porn star wife???
You didn't just do Sandra wrong, you've done your kids wrong.
You gained a lot of respect and credibility when Sandra Bullock married you, you trifling ass fucker.
Burn in hell!
Sincerely, A woman who had no plans to ever get married anyway, but you've certainly not helped to change my mind about that decision and I can't even think of a vile enough name to call you!
Tiki
Took her to the Vet this week for her second round of shots & heart worm pills. She was good at the vet's. Tore up a rug and lots of other shit in my mother's back yard that Evan and I had to clean up since she's our dog when she's bad, LOL.
See all that dirt & whatnot on the concrete? She knocked over a couple of MD's plants and spread the dirt all over the place. Took the rug out of her dog house, took the rug from the back door & flipped it over (that thing weights at least 10 lbs. She's only 18 lbs. No idea how she did that, LOL.)
I finally saw her teeth @ the Vet's. I didn't realize that they were so tiny. I guess she's teething and that's why she's chewing on rugs and shit. Even the wood pile. Of course, she ignores her chew toys...
Movies & Shows I've watched recently
Minute to Win it - On NBC. I probably wouldn't have watched it if the host wasn't Guy Fieri. I like the show, but much like that Fox show that was on last summer or whenever (the one where the people won money if they told the truth when asked questions), I zapped through a lot of it. So it takes about 15 minutes to watch a 60 minute show, LOL. But if there's nothing else on, it's worth checking it out.
This is it - The Michael Jackson movie. I borrowed it from MD. I guess if you're a true MJ fan, it's good to see. But...whatever, man. It didn't change my life. It will be on MTV or BET at some point. Just wait to see it then if you're not a hard core Michael fan.
Lost - WTF? I thought we were supposed to be getting answers???????? The first few shows this season have just raised more questions. The main one, for me at least, being "Why the hell are we seeing how the Oceanic 8's lives intersected before they came to the island?"
24 - HOLY SHIT! Renee has gone crazy, LOL. Freddie Prinze Jr's accent is getting on my last nerve. That guy who plays Tarin Faroush is fine as hell, though. Glad he's not dead, LOL.
19 Kids and Counting - So glad that baby Josie is ok!!!!!!!!!! I had been watching that show since they had 17 kids (I think) and I was really concerned that Josie, who was born 3 months premature, would not survive. I prayed for the Duggars & Josie in particular. No matter how you feel about their decision to have 19 children, you have to feel for that precious baby.
Now I just hope Michelle & JimBob stop. Seriously. Plus I'm sure they have some debt now with the hospital bills!!!
I think that's it.
Now, you go pray for me that I get whatEVER it is that's giving me daily headaches that hurt so bad I want to cry finally stops. Thank you. :-)
watched Precious tonight. You know the one. The one for which Mo'Nique won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar.
I don't really know what I was expecting. I mean, I knew that Mo'Nique's character was "mental". I knew she abused Precious.
....
I don't really know what to say about this movie.
It did not affect me the way some other movies have affected me in the past.
It probably would have helped if I hadn't heard sooooo much about the movie and how great it was, or seen that Miss Sidibe really isn't Precious.
I mean, I know she's ok. I knew she's well adjusted. I know she's full of confidence and charm. Sucks for her that Sandra Bullock had to pick this year to win her Oscar. ;-p
Anyway, Precious is a 16 year old girl who is pregnant, for the second time, by her father. Her mother (Mo'Nique) is a crazy bitch who tells Precious that she's stupid and she'll never amount to anything.
Precious gets kicked out of normal school and has to start going to an Alternative School. That is where she starts to realize that she isn't stupid. She learns to read & write (don't ask me how she managed to get A's in school when she had a 4th grade reading level...). She makes friends, blah blah.
It's a good movie.
You should definitely NOT watch it when you're hormonal. You might be more affected than I was by it, LOL.
It's a lot of abuse. We don't see it all, but we know it happens.
I really can't tell you more without ruining it. (Sorry, Monique.)
