So things are weird right now? I just want all this drama to blow over.

But you’re not here to read about my life! You guys want to see random nude pictures of celebrities (like Sarah Palin, still!) And sorry, still can’t help you.

Anyway, since I am getting sooo many views lately(ahem, yeah right) and have nothing to really write about anddd I just want to procrastinate on my real work.

More TV premieres!

Tomorrow is Pushing Daisies, Private Practice and Dirty Sexy Money. I’m a loser and don’t have a DVR,  Tivo, whatever, so yes, I watch a three hour block of TV on Wednesday nights. But I never have to change the channel! They’re all on ABC.

So after tomorrow my TV schedule for fall will be complete.

I really don’t know why I watch Dirty Sexy Money, but its addicting. And I’ve missed it. Pushing Daisies is sooo good. The sets are adorable, and so are the clothes. And personally, I like Private Practive more than Grey’s Anatomy. The patient stories are always tear-jerkers.

 

And as for TV shows on already… well there is Skins, which I already wrote about, Gossip Girl, Ugly Betty, Grey’s Anatomy, Project Runway (which will be ending soon) and sometimes Dancing with the Stars.

Gossip Girl has been disappointing lately, but Monday’s episode was really good. And I absolutely love Chuck now. LOVE HIM. And Blair. They were always my favorites, but now I just love them even more. Serena pisses me off no matter what the writers do with her. Still mixed feelings about Jenny, though. And I knd of like Dan? I didn’t see Nate or Vanessa this week (maybe they were in the first 20 minutes) so idk there. Chuck just broke my heart this episode! I want more like this. And I am looking forward to what is going to happen with Jenny and her fashion and relationship with Blair, as well as the whole Serena/Blair ordeal.

Ugly Betty was amazingly disappointing, as was Grey’s. I just felt like the writers took the easy way out with the plot on UB by making her not pick and just go “discover” herself. And it was so cliche about how she still really didn’t solve anything bceause she ran away from her problems. I wanted her to be with Gio! God. I liked the end song though! Tom Petty.

Grey’s Anatomy… I don’t know how many times I have said I wasn’t going to watch that show anymore! I want Izzie to be with Alex, but then Alex was an asshole. George should be with Meredith’s sister. But I did like how Cali and whats-her-face are back together sort of. And Christina and that crazy soldier guy! That was good, but it was kind of bland to me. And wayyy too long.

Now to Dancing with the Stars. I am rooting for my rep for the Olympics, Misty May (I want her to kick Kim’s ass! Which may be hard to do) and of course Lance! It would be just wrong if I didn’t want a former N*Sync member to win. Plus he is dancing with Lacey Schwimmer. Who is amazing. I hated her during SYTYCD, but I loved Season 3 with a little too much passion (reminiscient of my love for the Olympics) so I like to see them in the public eye. Never got to meet her when I went to the tour though. Her leg was messed up. It was upsetting.

 

Oh and November 17th is the Golden Goggle Awards, and I think you can watch it online, so I will update about that later. Ryan Lochte has been doing nothing I can talk about so justthought I’d mention it.

Skins!

September 29, 2008 · 1 Comment

Skins is my new favorite show.

Its basically like a British Degrassi, but 10x racier and a whole lot more f-bombs dropped in (they bleep it on on BBC America, and blur out a lot of things)

In the US the first season is airing right now, and I think there is only two in the UK so far.

Anyway, the show is fantastic. Especially if your sick of rich kids. Which I am.

There is a gay, a Muslim, a girl who had an eating disorder and then tried to kill herself, the nerdy sidekick, the guy who sleeps with everyone, your normalish girl who dates the guy who sleeps with everyone on and off, a musical girl, and a kid who is sleeping with his teacher. Well those are pretty much most of the main ones. So the characters are really diverse and that makes it even more interesting. And there are cute clothes! On both guys and girls!

It is more realistic than a lot of shows we’re used to, but some things I really can’t relate too. (Like everyone is smoking a cigarette… all the time)

But I really wanted to post this to tell you about the episode I just watched because it was not-so-realistic, yet very compelling. And as you may or may not know, I am a sucker for Olympic swimmers, guys who wear cardigans, and protective older brothers. This episode had 2/3 so it just had to be good.

So the boy who sleeps with everyone, Tony, was jealous of his now ex, Michelle, so in the last episode he stole her new boyrfriend’s phone and tok the dirty pictures he took of that kid’s sister and sent it to Michelles phone, so of course Michelle thinks her new bf is a total perv.

WELL n this episode Tony’s younger sister decided to be all rebellious and go to some weird racing with shopping carts thing where she meets this guy who gives her some drugs and they get arrested, which leads to Tony (in a CARDIGAN) finding out his sister is up to something, and then they go to this crazy ass party house with weird lighting and a pool table because Tony never got to the jail on time and she already got out. There, the guy she came with and Michelle’s new boyfriend injected her with more drugs so she passes out and then she got raped (it was so crazy!) and the whole time her brother was like “Where the hell is my sister”

None of Tony’s friends like him anymore so no one would help him except Sid who then left him to go find the crazy girl, but then Tony got a ride to the crazy party house where Michelle’s new boyfriend asked him to play poker, but he wanted to know where his sister is, and his sister was laying on the floor so he ran to her (ADORABLE OLDER BROTHERNESS) and tried calling an ambulance, BUT THEN the guy was like “Sorry no! You sent those pictures to Michelle so now if you want your sister to survive you’re going to have to HAVE SEX WITH HER!” And of course Tony was like “NO!” and was crying so the kid was like stepping on his throat, but Tony was begging and said he would fix things and then carried his sister out. IT WAS ADORABLE. And in the car he was holding his little sister and it was just the cutest thing.

And THEN his mom accused him of giving her the drugs and it was so upsetting, but Sid stood up for him.

And it was just really good and you should all go watch it now that I told you the whole thing.

How can you not find the big brother protecting little sister thing adorable?

I feel like the world has just came crashing down. I knew it was coming soon, but Paul Newman has passed away.

I’m honestly crying right now. Yeah, I’m crying.

Not only was he completely gorgeous back in the day, but he has had a longgg marriage to Joanne Woodward and has done so much for charity. He was amazing. I love him as much as Audrey Hepburn. And that is saying A LOT. Even though people today usually know him for his face on bottles of ranch dressing.

So now everyone should go watch Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. It is a gooood movie.

Way to lose the goddamn game Mets!

That should have been in the bag, but nooo you have loaded bases only to miserably fail at life. And you lose to the Cubs! Who have no motivation to win anything because they’re already like 500 games up.

Now I want to go throw up and do some voodoo on David Wright and his amazing incapability to NOT swing the bat for a walk.

David, I hate you right now, but deep down I still love you.

Awww, they can be the Ryan Lochte and Michael Phelps of baseball.

We can get our swimmer fixes in 2009!

September 21, 2008 · 4 Comments

Weren’t you all worried you would not be able to see our favorite swimmer’s and their torsos for another four years (and a swimmer I know even said Eamon might not be there!)?

Well, we have something to get us through.

I guess this is old news (like… month old news) but NBC will be broadcasting the swimming world championships until the next summer Olympics. This is probably because NBC wants to milk Michael for all he’s worth. They obviously would not have picked this up without the Phelps.

Now we will get our swimming fixes without having to have multiple interuptions for gymnastics.

 And for all of those airplane commercials with Michael Phelps…

This one I posted a little while ago on Perez. Highlight would be the torso.

Then we have this one. Phelps sings Don’t Stop Believin’ very strangely.

And then the prank one, with adorable smile.

I would also like to know why Ryan Lochte isn’t doing any talk shows.

Well, not that many.

awkward suit, Lochte. Pretty sure this was at fashion week.

Ryan, you were just too adorable at the NYSE.

And Jason Lezak on Coooonan Oooo’Brieeeen! He has a really good personality, actually. I wish he was my uncle. And he admits that the French and US swimmers really didn’t like each other outside the Watercube either. Well, he just says that they aren’t friends, but I bet there were many a dirty looks in the Olympic Village.

Conan tends to be really awkward with his guests, but I think this one was really good.\

 

Edit: I’ve just been told Lochte was golfing in Ocala today. I’ve been watching the news so I don’t know how I missed that update, but just in case you have been avidly stalking him I wanted to give you a heads up.

anddd its almost Friday.

I want this week to be over right nowwww. Worst week of my life (and it could have been the best!)

Anyway, besides the fact that I got to sleep until 4:45 pm today after a brief stint at school, Ian Crocker’s hair in this video has probably been the highlight of my week. It’s so… Ellen DeGeneres. (Edit: I think its broken now. You guys are missing out.)

This one is pretty dull, but skip to like…2:20. “Jeah” must be how all the swimmers communicate to each other now.

and if you’re really bored…

I can’t believe I just watched that whole thing, but I was so mesmerized. Skip to 3:07 for an awkward Lochte moment. And I’m am still insanely jealous of Stephanie Rice.

 

blehhhh, I hate colds, Juniorettes, due dates, and lost opportunities.

I COULD HAVE MET HIM! I COULD HAVE LIVED OUT MY DREAM!

September 17, 2008 · 4 Comments

This is a MAJOR rant.

I COULD HAVE SKIPPED AND WENT TO DAYTONA TODAY! Do you know why??? Ryan Lochte, the love of my life, was there meeting fans. Uh yeah, he was meeting people like me! And do you know where I was? At school.

And do you think I would be smart enough to actually keep track of these things? NO! So now I am going to throw up because I missed my golden opportunity to seduce Ryan Lochte and marry him. I missed it.

This, which could have been the BEST day of my life, is now the worst. Oh my God, I could just go die!

Die!

He was 15 minutes away from me ALL DAMN DAY!

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell kind of Olympic obsessor am I if I can’t even get this information??? I have completely failed.

RLM sent me a comment about it. AND I DIDN’T KNOW!

 

And if you want to see pictures THAT AREN’T MINE BECAUSE I WASN’T THERE click here. There are some of him at the Max Azria fashion show, NYSE, and the Olympics, too.

Ryan Lochte with his father Steve Lochte seated behind him as he speaks at a celebration in Ryan's honor. Ryan, a Port Orange resident and former Spruce Creek High School and UF swimmer is given a honored at the Daytona Beach Oceanfront Bandshell, Daytona Beach.

I could have seen that!!!

Ryan Lochte stands for the National Anthem at a celebration in his honor. Ryan, a Port Orange resident and former Spruce Creek High School and UF swimmer is honored at the Daytona Beach Oceanfront Bandshell after returning from the Beijing Olympics with four medals.

Yeah, do you know how pissed at myself I am?

 

Edit: I had to call just about everyone I know about this. I am SO upset I want to cry. He looked so good, too. Omg, really good. And you know what is really funny… Someone told me a few days ago I was like that girl on the Michael Phelps commercial that said “One day I’ll look back at this and laugh… OR CRY!” Well guess what? Now I am completely that girl. I CAN NOT believe I couldn’t have just checked my comments last night. omg, WHY did I decide to be a good student last night?

Oh… and some kid heard about my freak out and was like “Oh that’s cool… His dad is my club coach.” Yeah way to help out and rub your Lochte connections in my face!

quick video.

September 15, 2008 · 3 Comments

Maybe updating this later. Have so much to do tonight.

Lochte, Phelps, Coughlin at NYSE. Coughlin sounds very out of it, poor thing. She’s still pretty, though. They must be so tired.

Oh, I’ll post some Perez Olympic swimmers updates later… or you can just go read it for yourself. Phelps has a new commercial (which involves a little torso, Michael looks adorable) and Brendan Hanson got his gold stolen! Sad.

 

Edit: added a hyperlink to Michael’s commercial. To bad he couldn’t be as adorable on SNL.

 

Hey! Miley Cyrus is dating a 20 year old?? Yeah she is still 15. Miley pretty much sucks at keeping a squeaky clean image. I don’t even know why I bother to blog about her, honestly. And I totally agree with this post secret card–
