aruan | Weekend Update

It seems that invariably, it is the days when I decide to blow off checking the friendslist that someone's on TV and I don't get the announcement. Meh.

Footage Request: If anyone has a rip/bootleg of the PopOdyssey The Game Is Over performance, audio or video, I'd do very frowned upon in certain circles things for it. Or just thank you kindly, if that's more your bag.

SNL was obviously a fluke last week, because this Saturday was such the disappointment. Halle Berry was not good, and the show on the whole was not funny. Also I remain convinced, however mistakenly, that Brit could sing if they'd only let her. On an unrelated note, homegirl can move.

Speaking of, I saw the shirt that Justin was wearing during the Punk'd skit at the mall Saturday. The full text reads Jesus is My Homeboy. *giggle*

The Marlins won game one of the Series! I won't pretend to be a baseball fan but hometown solidarity I can do. Go fish!

I bought Coconut Rum as my first serious alcoholic purchase and realized that, as there would be no human way to drink it straight up, it looks to be tropical rum & Cokes for the duration. Lance would be envious.

Shopping List

-printer cartridge
-straightening iron
-clothes iron
-Clay Aiken, White Stripes, Beth Orton, and Coldplay CDs

Straaange Amazing Race-type dreams last night. Woke up just in time to meet the roommate's nearest and dearest, who helped move her in. They definitely made a lot of the little space. Shall see how things progress.

Upon my umpteenth listen to Some Girls Dance With Women, I realized the second line of the bridge is "all trussed up on what you feel," and my insulin levels shot sky-high simultaneously with that chest-tightening love emotion. Had to sit down for a moment. Trussed up! Like Thanksgiving turkey even! *loves on him*

All the pictures from Jamaica have been excellent fun, too. Have I mentioned Joey looks fantastic, save the godawful facial hair? Lance is his usual fabulous and glowy self, and the birthday boy couldn't be more delightfully not his age at all. Chrissopher! Dirty boy with the pylon on his head. Did he get in a tussle with it or something?

Started Betty's seahorse story - already one of the cutest things ever only half of the first section in. Plus, as Miranda would say, you get the Bassez for free!

The step class yesterday afternoon was grand, even if I didn't manage to do the final combination right even once.

I wrote a lot of code last night. To be fair, so did

walkingshadow, who probably deserves almost as much credit as I do on the project at this point. She's a wonderfully enthusiastic audience.

My windows are open, as they have been for the past couple of weeks. Autumn brings this wonderfully crisp smell to everything, in addition to the cooler temps. It's around this time of year that one can truly appreciate walking around campus.

Also, this is a GIP, again with thanks to

powrhug. His mouth has that smirky edge, which is entirely foiled by the heinousness of all those colors in his ensemble. Good try, Justin.

[ETA: Just remembered that there's no history of journalism today, a free movie at Eastern Federal tonight, and the Stats quiz doesn't close until 5:30. Huzzah! I'm thinking early afternoon coffee downtown, which sounds a lot like like heaven.]
