:P

maybe i should study?

behold: a quiz from my arthurian romance night class [that i have since given the ax] and my answers (which were read aloud in either great amusement or great bitterness---i'll never know which)]:

Q. why did lancelot take the hair from the comb?

A. he was making his entrepreneurial debut as an elite wig-maker, specializing in the type for wee bald people (or average-height people with really small craniums). he boasts a celebrity clientele of gary coleman and the "egg that just wouldn't crack".

Q. why was lancelot's bed bloody?

A. a horse's head was placed there in the night by a corleone family member. YOU DON'T BETRAY THE FAMILY, CAPEESH?

there were more questions, but i can't 'member them.

oh! and a shoutout to [info]crown_the_queen, who is the definition of fabulous and my first ub chum!!! thank you for such a fun lunch, m'lady!!! heart heart heart heart.

i'm off to shovel. have a nice night everyone!

women directors was given the chop; hence, an eljay post.

 
 
looks like president bush's farewell tour was overshadowed by this "miracle on the hudson" business.
"we've had a miracle on 34th st, so now it's fitting we have a miracle on the hudson." -- aimless reporter.
oh, good gravy.

also, they're calling it a "water-landing"? uhm, no. the plane freakin' crashed. if a plane bounces off of a mountain and into a grassy knoll, you don't call it a successful mountain-landing, do you? if you have to swim to your connecting flight, you CRASHED. if you have to retrieve your luggage from a ferry, you CRASHED. if you get off in the same zip code from whence you took off, you mothaf!#king CRASHED. if yo---i've got a million more of 'em, but i think i've made my point.

and those dopey reporters who stand-by with their multithermal bubble jackets whilst they interview the passengers who are freezing their gonads off? ugh!

if this post is worth anything, it signifies my utter contempt and disgust with the media.

alwight, i'm toddling off to luncheon. oh, elaine stritch! thank you for re-creating your place in my life as jack donaghy's sassy mother.

Election Day! Election Day!

 


[Check out the African American on the far right. ;-) ]

You know the drill [.....baby, drill], folks. Get out there and vote, it's the American way! (So is getting a free cup o' cawfee from Starbuck's.)

I can't say I know how I feel about this election. It's been the longest in history and it sure as hell feels like it. McCain (although I am voting for him) has shown a side of himself throughout the run of his campaign that I am none too proud of: i.e. - "air quotes" around "women's healthcare"? Nonetheless, I truly feel he's the best pick to protect our country and preserve our rights.

I just want this mess to be over with.

EDIT: OBAMA WON!!!!!! Whatever sort of personal politics you have, this is a proud day for Americans.

The Queen of Hollywood: Part Deux

YO, MINNIE.

I LOVE YOU LIKE WHOA. LET'S GET MARRIED AND BE EACH OTHER'S GUARDIAN ANGELS. One day we will be together foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever. </emily>

That was so upsetting to write, you have no idea.

No. F'real. F'real. I just hung out with the likes of William Powell, Myrna Loy and Asta for about 4 hours straight. As in, 2/7ths of The Thin Man box set. And........I really can't remember the last time I sat down and paid attention to Myrna's ease up there on the screen. She's mega wunduhful and made of win and gawgeous and I'ma give her a picspam. Albeit, a cracked out one, but a picspam nonetheless.

M-Loy WTF-ery I found haunting the intarnets behind the cut:

You give such charming parties, Mr. Charles )

I enclose this post with this lovely bit of dialogue:


Oh 1930s and your drugs.

Dear Myrna Adele Williams,



Hi.

PS, this might be the best letter I've ever penned. Except not really at all.

i don't know what's my favorite part about this ridiculous-ness. the look of utter terror on that zebra as kate grinds its face into the earth? how she thought this was going to get her somewhere? or perhaps it's the breakaways?
i have no idea.

::throws on the BUB negligee::

Now that it's your birthday, I don't know what to do
Can't give you a Thunderbird, or a penthouse with a view
Can't even buy a little present
I'm much too broke, I find
But there is one way I can save the day
And I sure hope you don't mind, that…

I can't give you anything but love, baby.

No, seriously.
Thus, I dedicate this LJ post to you, chum.

the summation of my sophmore year of college.


.....that manages to be emotional and pathetic at the same damn time.
::shakes fist at the likes of gillian anderson and david duchovny::

but! but! i was there for all of this! i have archived livejournal posts full of squealing fangirly tirades to serve proof! 
so many memories! such as:
1. the time i stayed up till 2 am to wait for the theatrical trailer to debut on the officical site.
2. the time i drove to ub with lappy at midnight and stayed there in the parking lot until 4am to wait for my wondercon bootlegged footage to download. a cop drove by at around 3 and probably expected to find two kids gettin' horizontal, but all he found was one very sleepy flailing me and, after finding out he was a huge fan, watched most of the conference together.

1 and 2 are enough, man.

the post where amber tells you not to waste your money on the happening because it sucked balls

this is mostly a heads-up for [info]maruca , but all of you philes around the world, take note, it is NOT worth the five dolla.or, ya know, the fitty dolla.

sure, it was rejuvenating to see mulder and scully up there on the big screen in all their sexay glory, but... to sit through some of the hokiest crap i've ever laid my eyes on for something i've seen countless times on my phone seems wasteful of precious minutes of my life.

reasons why the happening is m [for mediocure] shama-lama-ding-dong's swan song, fo' sho:
1. we saw the sound boom hovering precariously overhead in one scene.
2. the twsit was that there was no twist.
3. it's not suspense if you tell the audience what's happening the first 20 minutes of the film.
4. if i stuffed mark whalburrrg into a paper bag, he could not act his way out of it.
5. "cheese and crackers! what's happening?!"
6. that movie could have been so much better if the trailer didn't spoil the UNnecessary "disturbing" imagery. see, this is why i heart the x-files. i've seen the trailer and it told us SHIT about the film. but you know it's going to be a solid story. surious!

HACK HACK HACKYSACK.

someone on the rad-io said his [shamalama] name should end "and this is your DELL tech supporter, how may i help you?" am i awful for finding that hilarious? do i care? ....tah, no.

also, there are reasons why i've been mostly MIA for entirely last month and into this one. that's probably best saved for another day. my life is a saga written by edgar allen poe.

here's to my father accosting an elder in the street whilst filing a lawsuit against his neighbor because dot dot dot A MAGICAL, FLYING LAWN FLAMINGO PROPELLED ITSELF AT HIS FOREHEAD DURING A WINDSTORM. 



dear shrimp-colored plastic lawn flamingo, 
way to quickly become my most favorite of the tacky lawn ornaments, beating the lawn jockey by mere milimeters.
one love,
ambs

oh, and to moving! and to my geriatric crew! and to mom killing ghetto AOL! and to copious arguments and to tears and futile job applications!

i miss my momma pantsless terribly. it's times like these when there is so much to update you on that i don't know what to say. kisses, your p.o.

and ew, why did i just finish ingrid bergman's autobiography? is that what i've been forced to do during my spare time since i've been hacked off from the webz?

but, i'm off the point. yo ashley, don't go see the happening.

there you go.

"Stupid Cupid, stop pickin' on meeeee."

JENNIFER GAMBINO, AH LOOOOOOOOVES YOU.

I just received this e-mail from my childhood BFF: "So uhm, my life is a joke and I AM TRANSFERRING BACK TO UB!!!! Next semester we are totally meeting up and hanging out after too many long years!!"

GLORIOUS.

Seems she's going for a BA in FBI Secret Agent WhossaaWhasizz. All's I know is she gets to carry a gun and is allowed to throw people in the clink. I'm sooooo proud of her.

In great honor of mah Jennybean, lay your eyes on these wondrous photos from our collective dance recitals:



FIRST TAP COSTUMES EVER HOLLAAAAAA! And we're being normal for once, which is damn rare. Awwww, so very wee!!! The stage is 24,567 miles above our heads.



I'M SUCH A HAM. Apparently when the photographer lady said "strike a pose", I took that as act as whore-y as possible. F'reals, I sifted through thousands of candids from this year and in every one of them I am a total ho. Jen's adorable. She's making a #4 with her legs. Everyone else is boring. Go us.



We were about 7 and got a standing O for that jazz number. I remember that damn sun was in our eyes so much I had to perform with tearing eyes.

God, I miss this so much. If it wasn't for my asshat dad, I would still be with Dancentral. I miss my tan taps. It was so many moons ago that I was executing a perfect one-footed wing on the CFA stage.

Sniff.
