MySpace Rejection!
I had to create a MySpace page for a VH1 reality show back in my old job and as a result, set up a MySpace page for myself that I rarely use. I checked it today and noticed that this guy I was friends with in NY has de-friended me.
What the hell?
Granted, we weren't BFF or anything, but I can't imagine he would be feeling such animosity toward me that he would have to go to the trouble of de-friending me. It's not like there's a lot of active responsibility in maintaining a MySpace friendship. Last time I checked, the MySpace databases pretty much took care of it all.
While I'm not upset about being de-friended by this specific person, I'm a little hurt by the idea of it. What did I do? I haven't talked to the dude since the spring. I checked his page and he has 99 friends, so maybe he has a 100 friend quota and I was expendable?
It's strange, because I could have never had another thought about this person (he wasn't a close friend or anything), but now that I've been de-friended I really want to ask him why he felt it necessary to take this step. I'm just curious.
Will I contact him? No. Will I ever know why I was MySpace de-friended? Probably not. Will the pain ever subside? I can only hope. Just so long as Tom doesn't reject me, I'll be ok.

Holy Fucking Shit
I saw The Departed tonight and all I can say is Holy Fucking Shit.
I love Matt Damon and Marky Mark. Leo Di Caprio has never really done it for me . . . until now. Boy done grown up. He blew everyone else in the cast away. And the rest of the cast was good. Really good. He was better.
He's always just struck me as a boy. Last thing I saw him in was Gangs of NY. He always had this nervous, giggly thing going that just made his bad-assedness seem really contrived. Like he was trying to make us believe it as opposed to just being it. He is now it.
See this movie. Now. See it.

Confession
Probably not too surprising, but I love crappy gossip magazines. Specifically In Touch Weekly. I'm honestly not sure anything could be more mindlessly entertaining. Watching VH1's Awesomely Bad series requires more focus and attention than settling in with In Touch Weekly.
This week, I encounted the greatest freakin' quote I've ever read, courtesy of former Backstreet Boy Nick Carter.
Nick tells In Touch that the Backstreet Boys plan to have a new album out by the end of the year. "And I also want to work with the United Nations to help the great apes and the coral reefs," he adds.
I can't decided if this is the most brilliant or most retarded statement ever made.

Always Clean: for when clean isn't clean enough
I'm sick of the media telling me how dirty my vagina is. This product is totally unnecessary:
At least it's uplifting.

OMG I'm Boring
My life is all about the TV lately.
GIlmore Girls
I love this show, but I honestly cannot deal with the demise of Luke and Lorelai. Was this how people felt about Luke and Laura from Y&R in the 80s?
Veronica Mars
Pretty good, but a little too much. It's like the writers got together and thought, "Hey! People like it when Veronica is sassy. If she's sassy sometime, that's good. If she's sassy ALL THE TIME, that will be freakin' awesome." Guys - it's not. Tone it down.
Lost
I'm totally into this new season. I love that the others were leading normal, book-club lives before the plane crashed on their little utopia, if that's what it is. What is going on? And why is Sawyer in a bear cage? And are those fish biscuits any good?
ANTM
There is not a single girl in this season who looks like a model. Melrose looks borderline retarded. Megg is annoying as fuck. The twins are cool and skinny and all, but are not pretty. The only one I like, surprisingly, is Brooke. Bitch has personality and mad rhyming skills. As TH said, though: Hot cheerleader, not top model.
Weeds
Good, but I'm not loving it as much as the first season. Can't really explain why. Kind of the same as the VM syndrome. I like her flakiness, but as an aspect of her personality. Not as the dominant component.
Dexter
Lots o'potential. Not sure it's the best show ever made, as it's being reviewed. But we've got Michael C. Hall and Julie Benz engaged in uncomfortable, unemotional sex, so that's cool.
Nip/Tuck
I'm not feeling lobster baby. Christian's sexuality is interesting. As is the idea of Kimber, Matt and the Scientologists. Sean is such a pussy - Julia has got to leave his ass. I hope she hooks up with the little person nurse. That'd be sextacular.
Grey's Anatomy
I wish Meredith would die. Can we introduce a Buffyesque moment and trade Meredith's soul for Denny Duquette's? I loved him. Sexiest inpatient in memory. I really like this cast, but Meredith is pathetic and uninteresting and I don't buy all these dudes wanting to get into her scrubs.
The Nine
I'm watching it right now, but obviously not too intently seeing as I'm writing all this shit. Looks pretty good, though. I like how after they're released the vegetarian chick wants bacon. I love when veggies convert back to their carnivorous nature.
This is all the TV I'm watching and it's a lot and the burden is heavy, but I'm standing tall under the weight and I will continue to watch as much TV as humanly possible and every day, say a little prayer of thanks to whatever diety I'm worshipping that day, for providing the world, and me specifically, with the beauty and magic of DVR.
