if only seth cohen were real..... i would forgive his neurosis.....

I'm watching Season two of The O.C. and it's absolutely amazing. Just as I remember it being.

K and I are going to be watching Thank You For Smoking soon and I'm hoping it will be as good as everyone said it is. Adam Brody is in it, so it can't be too bad. *wink*

I also rented The O.C. season three, Veronica Mars season two, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer seasons 3-5. I didn't expect to get them all at once, but... it did happen and now I have a week to watch all of it. I might have to re-check some of these things out. I know how terrible it can be if you have so many things overdue, with a ten cent a day/per item charge.

I played Super Mario Galaxy for the first time today and it was a lot of fun. Some stages are harder than others, and my sister completed a stage I could not.

It sounds like there's a duck outside my window, but I think it's actually a frog. Or TOAD, as my father corrected me today. He said, "Toads live on land. Frogs live in the water." Whatev.

Thank You For Smoking is starting and my hopes are high।

Also, check out these etch-e-sketch drawings. Pretty sweet.

[[EDIT: Ok, sooooo Thank You For Smoking was pretty awesome. It makes me want to keep not smoking. And it makes me glad that I don't smoke cigarettes presently.]]

I was just thinking....

If The O.C. were still on, I bet Seth Cohen would be excited about the new Hellboy movie coming out, since he said it was the only comic-gone-movie he'd watch. Or at least that's what I think, and ... I know a lot about The O.C. 

Anyways, I sent an email to the editor of the MS press, if I haven't mentioned this before. I'm kinda desperate for a job by now, so if I can start working for them again, it should be pretty sweet. I didn't really want to have to go back into newspapers, but what the hell else am I going to do? Until I can find a real job or something. Who knows.

It looks as though there's a storm coming in from the North East. It's going to hit maybe Sunday or Monday and last all next week. I'm not looking forward to it. Considering tomorrow will be the last day us kids in Mississippi will be seeing, we might want to catch up on our sunrays while we have 'em. Grab your tanning lotion and hit those towels, ladies! 

Then, either burnt or bronzed, you'll be kept inside somewhere doing something like watching mass amounts of television or reading or whatever. 

AH! and it's my bff L's birthday today! 21! Woo!

And I can't help but bragging, but I bought the new Gossip Girl, The Carlyles today. Ugh, although I will be giving it to L as her birthday present... but I'm going to read it first! That's what happens when you buy a present early I guess...

oooooooh, barracuda

It has finally arrived. Or at least I think it has. I got this picture from Amazon.com.

Other than that, I STILL haven't heard from the people from Ruby Tuesday. M is supposed to be talking to them about me tonight, so I hope something goes right. Or else it's back to square one.

Hello, square one.

I've been having dreams about Adam Brody or maybe it's Seth Cohen I'm dreaming of, either way, it's incredibly hot. Not the dream, but the person(s). 

Last night, I read the entirety of nothing can keep us together, a Gossip Girl book I picked up, just yesterday at the library. It was really good, and now I have the last three on hold and are waiting to be picked up. I'll also be getting Lost, season 2, which is extra exciting. I think that will be on my list of things-to-do tomorrow. 

I laid out today, and read Lucky, an It Girl novel. I'm still reading, actually, even at 5:30. As for laying out, I feel as though my legs aren't getting as tan as fast as my arms are. It's quite unfortunate, if you ask me. I really need to find out a way to tan equally on all sides. I think tanning beds are exceptional if you don't have the time to lay out during the day. Since I have the time to lay out during the day now, I don't really want to  go and spend more time laying half-naked in a tube of glowing lights. I'm not bashing tanning beds, because I've used them on several occasions. I've even use them to create my "base tan" for the season of Spring. Malibu was the one who kind of talked me into going to tanning beds in the first place. I think I am going to write that book about my freshman year in college. It was life changing, I'm serious.

I believe it is strange how food that is supposedly more good for you is more expensive. The same goes for more economical cars and so on. Why do things that are supposed to be better for our lives and the life of our planet so unattainable except for the wealthy, who only aspire to be "green." My aunt just re-built her house after Katrina, and she had a lot of economically good things that she added to her house. I can't recall them now, but I remember the conversation my mother and I had about her sister. Well, the stuff my aunt added to her house wasn't extremely costly. So maybe having a "green," economical house isn't as expensive as attaining a hybrid car. 

Whatever. I just got a call from a friend and I must depart. Although I do want to continue to bitch about the economy and how it is completely unfair.

The O.C.

The O.C. is a great TV show. Seth and Sandy Cohen are my favorite father-son tv duo. 

Dead Marissa Cooper. Except I'm watching the first season. Summer Roberts certainly does have a drastic change throughout the series. It ends on an up-note in the fourth season's series finale. I never would have thought Ryan Atwood and Taylor Townsend would end up together, but they did, and I guess it worked that way. I don't know why I care that much.

Julie Cooper. How can anyone live their lives without conniving, malicious Julie Cooper, constantly trying to get Ryan Atwood kicked out of Newport Beach.
