Rent
Does anyone want to see "Rent" with me this weekend? Since someone we won't name (Rachel)bailed on me and ignored my text message yesterday, I'm shopping for takers. There are really good orchestra seats available at the matinee on Sunday for $70. Ultimately, I have no problem going by myself. But I thought I'd see if anyone was interested. I could also do Friday or Saturday night, but the seat aren't as good. Think about it, peeps! Adam Pascal and Anthony Rapp are on this tour! (I'm excited despite feeling that they're a little old for "Rent' and need to find new jobs). I don't want to hear the excuse that you've seen it already (Carley). Everyone has seen it already, but it still comes back to Madison every year. Julie, we could do brunch, followed by 'Rent.' Doesn't that sound like an awesome Sunday? And I don't think it's pathetic that I'm asking via blog. It's just more efficient then sending out individual e-mails and text messages. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I Hate You, Entertainment Weekly
You and your stupid Must List. Always giving me ideas about shit to download and games to play and books to read. You've officially gone too far! Did you have to provide me with a game of Tetris that's even more addictive than the original? And that I suck at more? Why do you do these things to me?! Everyone must become enslaved! http://www.firstpersontetris.com FYI, this is not blocked at work. At least, not yet.

It Must Be Said
I love "Glee"more than anything and anybody. Can you tell I just watched the last episode?

Wow. Really?
I watched a documentary on ironing yesterday. I think it was specifically about traditional gender roles in Louisiana women. But that being said, it was 30 minutes about ironing. What types of irons the women preferred, why ironing was so important to them, the right way to iron a shirt, how they quietly judge other women if their husbands and kids don't have well ironed clothes. I was entranced. I couldn't turn the channel. Is this really what my life has come to? I need to get out more.

Still Bugging Me After 10 Years
The song "Jumpin' Jumpin" by Destiny's Child came on the radio the other day. And after 10 years the lyrics still bug me. To refresh some of your memories (though come on, who doesn't know the lyrics?) the song opens with "Ladies leave your man at home/The club is full of ballers and their pockets full grown/And all you fellas leave your girl with her friends/Cause it's eleven thirty and the club is jumpin', jumpin'" clearly this bothers me, because it implies that everyone in the club is there cheating on their significant other. Are their any single people there? Shameful. Catchy tune, though.

Kudos To Megan
Y'all have become pretty crappy blog followers. We all know I need frequent feedback to improve my self-worth and I'm just not getting it anymore. Only Megan stands out as someone who frequently offers hilariously awesome comments on my posts. So kudos to Megan, she wins the coveted title of #1 blog follower. That being said, there are some that discuss my blog with me face to face. Your contributions are appreciated. There isn't really a prize associated with this. Though I am bring butter pecan turtle bars to work tomorrow.

The Name
I've decided that Bernie needs a full, formal name. I'm thinking Bertrum Cornelius Wise. What do we think? Kickass, right?

Happy Birthday, Bobbles!!
It's the start of the Bob's 28th year!! Sorry, I had to say that in a way that made you sound as old as possible. YEAH!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Also, I'm aware that this would have been more effective and meaningful if 1) I had actually remembered on my own that today was your birthday and 2) if I had posted this at midnight, instead of at the end of the day. Oh well, hope it rocked!!
Really?
So Cottonelle has commercials and a RollPoll online where you can vote on whether you roll your toilet paper over or under. Seriously? I understand it's just a marketing technique, but this is ridonkulous. Though I can't lie, some of the commercials are pretty funny. And that being said, clearly you roll over. No contest. And nice try Cottonelle, I'm still using Charmin toilet paper. Creepy bears wiping their butts in the woods just do it for me, I guess. Well that and I love Mega Rolls.

Shrek
We all know I sometimes have a problem suspending reality for Disney movies (refer back to the 11/8/08 post about Simba and Nala being incestuous). So my current question won't surprise you. Do you think kids that watch and love the "Shrek" movies now will later in life, once they know about the birds and the bees, question how a donkey and a dragon would mate? At least the dragon is female and the donkey male. Cuz if things were the other way around, you'd have a female donkey speared in half.

Resolutions 2010
A week into the New Year and I haven't declared my resolutions yet. For shame! Let's first recap last year's resolutions. Kind of a bust. Of my seven goals, I accomplished two: buying a house and getting a dog. Some would say reaching these goals was a big deal. I disagree. It's numbers that count, and 2/7 sucks. I failed to learn to play the guitar, find a new hobby, curb my spending/get out of debt, take impromptu trips, and lose 90 pounds. I did lose 18, but again, not good enough. So, time for 2010 goals!! We'll start with the repeats, then add a few new ones.
- Take impromptu trips. It's coming back! I arranged my schedule throughout the year in a way that I have a week off like every other month. Must take advantage.
- 72 in '10. Yeah... not quite as catchy as 90 in '09, but it is what it is. And don't suggest 10 in '10, cuz that is a pathetic goal.
- I still need a new hobby. Something non-sedentary, if anyone has any suggestions.
- And I guess I should continue to work to minimize my debt and spending. I actually got into more debt last year.
- Accomplish at least two home fix-it projects. Details to come.
- Get involved in some kind of community service.
- Be nicer. I don't really want to be nicer, but I guess it's a worthy goal to strive for. And this goes against the goal I shared with Bob last week, which was to actually become bitchier.
