Hello people!
Well, Nick woke me up at 11:50 today, lol. I love when he wakes me up; he’s much more calm and nice than mom and dad are. He just got a new MP3 player (but shhh, don’t tell mom, she’s not sposed to know yet): a Nano Chromatic. It’s beautiful. And makes me kinda jealous. Mostly cuz you can download TCR onto iPods and I could *really* use that feature. I mean, you guys know I keep getting really behind on TDS/TCR. So, yeah.
I got up and had some mini!muffins for breakfast and then spent about four hours watching this past week’s eps of TDS/TCR. I’m somewhat caught up. I’ve still got the RNC coverage plus four more eps from quite a while ago to watch, but at least I’ve watched the most recent stuff. And let me say, Monday’s TDS was spot on. The audience was FINALLY being as good as they should be. I think Jon typically has a bad audience. They don’t laugh as much as they should, especially in comparison to Stephen’s audience. *shakes head*
This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard on TCR ever. It killed me. I IZ DED. The title of this post is from that video. Cuz, ya know, it kicks some serious comedy ass. <3 Speaking of comedy, I tried watching John Oliver’s comedy special, and I’m sure I’m the only person who thinks this, but I don’t find him all that funny. *shrugs*
That’s about all I did today, lol. Um…oh! The Emmys are tonight. Who else is excited to the point of insanity? I could not hope more that Stephen wins. He never wins. He SO deserves it (and Jon, too, of course!). I’m also hoping that there will be at least a teeny bit of slashy goodness when they present an award together. I think they should watch their slashy toss from Wednesday and take ideas from that. ;]
Let’s see…last night, we watched Hoodwinked. It was okay. The only reason we got it is cuz it was chock full ‘o’ celebs who we happen to like/love. I mean, Jim Belushi and Patrick Warburton? Hell yes. Their parts were hilarious, but the rest of it was…well, relatively mediocre, but I spose that’s to be expected. They’re making a second one with a few different celebs and a ton of new ones. We’ll prolly end up renting it.
Oh! My parents have talked with Nick and me and we’ve decided that this coming summer (so that’s after I graduate from high school), we’re gonna move BACK to Ellington, Connecticut, which is where we lived before we moved here. Why? Because we want to leave this place. And we’ve been trying to figure out for the past two years how we could move back to New England.
See, we thought it would be super-difficult because Nick wants to stay with his friends. And to send him into his senior year when he’s so dependent on having friends would just be cruel. Well, we’ve come up with the solution: he’ll enroll in Ellington High School, which is where all of our old friends are currently attending. That way, Nick will be able to hang out with people he is already friends with.
And I’ll be going to college, so I don’t have to worry bout adjusting very much. The sucky thing? I didn’t think we’d be moving, so I’ve been focusing on Ohio colleges. Now, I can’t go to Denison (Steve Carell’s college) or Northwestern (Stephen Colbert’s college) cuz we’ll be too far away and I need to be near my parents. So the little amount of all the work I did was a total waste. And now my search for the right college is a clusterfuck.
I saw a book at the bookstore yesterday called, “ProBlogger.” I started flipping through it and it’s written by these two guys (whose names I don’t remember) who made a job of blogging. Now, this isn’t really a new concept. But I’m enamoured with becoming famous/rich through blogging. I mean, that’s a not-so-secret dream of mine. The only downside: you need to pick a topic to blog on that will actually interest people.
That seems obvious right? But most blogs are about people’s lives. Writing about themselves (which, guess what? is what this blog is about). In order to actually make money off of blogging, which is entirely possible, one should write about one solid topic of interest. Like, for example, religion. Or politics. Or a hobby of some sort (cooking, photography, TV/movie reviews). I’m considering making ANOTHER blog in which I can review TV shows since I watch so many of them and have always thought it would be cool to review shows as a job.
So…yeah. I’ll be tweeting during the Emmys tonight, so if anyone wants to follow me or reply, I shall do the same for you. It promises to be an awesome night! :D
Love y’all – Mira/Doc/Kat *meow*
