So I'm blogging. Because my girlfriend was all like "Guess who hasn't blogged for a while?" and I was like "aaaack". My face was falling off today, I played an hour-and-a-half concert in preparation pour my trip to Europe for which I leave on Thursday. And my orthodontist had screwed over my braces with a powerchain across the front, which wouldn't have been an issue if I had gotten to do some lip slurs, which I didn't, which meant that I was screwed over, which yeah I'm being a nerd currently. But this blog is TROMBONES and Diet Coke, I guess.
I'm watching the All-Star Game. Kuo (who?) just single-handedly gave up the first run to the American League, with a walk, an error, and a sac fly. Just putting it out there, wouldn't everyone prefer to see Stephen Strasburg give up the losing run instead of a no-name injury replacement middle reliever? Or Mat Latos? Or Roy Halladay, for that matter? I'm not sayin', I'm just saying. (that charliemanuelisaclown) What?
I desperately want to see Inception. Ellen Paige + psychological thriller = total weirdness in my brain.
Speaking of movies, The Last Airbender was horrible. M. Night Shamallama obviously takes himself way too seriously. And the altered pronounciations? I don't understand it. The effects, the much-lauded mega-millions effects, were actually pretty terrible in places, at the most satisfactory in others. Terrible acting. Especially from Noah Ringer, just awful. He looks the part, but that's about as far as he gets.
On an unrelated note, this one Geico commercial is absolutely brilliant.
"Could switching to Geico save you up to fifteen percent on car insurance?
...
Do former drill sargents make terrible therapists?"
"And that's why yellow makes me sad, I think."
"That's interesting. You know what makes me sad? YOU do! Maybe we should chug on over to namby-pamby land where MAYBE we can find some self-confidence for you, yah JACKWAGON!"
Cracks me up every time.
