Eight Secrets About the ‘Saved by the Bell’ Reunion
You know, Mark-Paul Gosselaar is way cooler than I ever gave him credit for. via pop candy
Vote for Jordan
Even if you don’t watch Big Brother, do me a solid — go here and vote for Jordan. Vote a lot. Vote all the time. Tell your friends. Please? I find her adorable and it would be fantastic if she won this power. If you think her tiny cute brain can’t handle the power (put it this way — she gets confused spelling “cat”) then vote for Jeff. And if you voted last night during the show, they’ve erased all the votes due to some technical problem. So get back in there!
Blast from the Past Music Video
Front 242, “Tragedy for You.” For a period of time, I was really into industrial dance music. I just loved how it was so relentless, dark yet danceable, and so very German. I think I briefly chatted with these guys in front of the jukebox at City Gardens once.
You Have Violated Your Contract
Tomorrow is the last day of this cycle of Boot Camp. The three-day-per-week option was awesome and I really liked it. My body was much more used to it this time and I had few problems, other than some periodic sore muscles and shins. Yesterday during class, we warmed up with what our trainer calls “Personality Sprints.” We stand on the tennis courts and she’ll call out something like, “Sprint if you have a pet at home! Sprint if you went to bed early last night!” and you sprint across.
Beth and I get a big chuckle (and a big workout) out of this, because the trainer inevitably calls these, all in a row: “Sprint if you like wine… if you like beer… if you like hard stuff.” And Beth and I are usually the only ones who have to sprint all three times. Our trainer pointed out as we ran that it says in our Boot Camp Contract that we will refrain from drinking during the entirety of Boot Camp. I thought, “But I’m not drunk NOW,” and Beth yelled out, “Well, then, I QUIT.”
I’m still cracking up about that today.
STE-PHA-NIE!
How great is this story about Monday’s Green Day show? Sofa king great. What a lucky and talented chick. Yay, Stephanie!
Julie and Julia
Did you know that this cute little movie is all controversial and crap? Apparently some foodie bloggers don’t care for Julie Powell, the woman who blogged and cooked her way through Julia Child’s cookbook. Defamer calls them “prissy,” and I believe I agree. I mean, the worst possible outcome of this movie is that people will be inspired to try cooking gourmet meals at home. HOW DARE THEY. Everyone gets pissed when someone wants to join their little party.
I’m currently doing some writing about the Slow Food movement. It’s an amazing philosophy and certainly something to strive for. However, I can’t say that I haven’t sometimes sat back in my chair and briefly thought it was kind of elitist, too.
