Posting from Pesha
1. Yep. I actually went to Pesha to get some more fro yo. I'd post a pic of the ginormous fro yo I just inhaled (topping: mandarin orange and kiwi, and it was AMAZING), but I forgot my phone at home. Which is probably for the best, because everytime I'd have to look at the post, I'm probably going to get a craving. Please expand faster, White Hat. Or at least consider getting a place at Mega.
2. It's not all about the fro yo, though. My spinning class is earlier here, thereby freeing up most of my day for other things, like the massage I'm probably getting later. Why yes, it is self-indulgence day, why do you ask?
3. Ok, it's all about my fro yo greed. See what you've done, y_slaybelle and krude? Are you proud of yourselves?
4. I did weigh myself, and apparently I gained 4 pounds after spending a week out of town and out of reach of a gym. Good Lord. Another reason to hate The Taint of the North. They don't have diet Coke anywhere, did you know that?
5. Onto telly matters. Desk Set started out beautifully, if a little dependent on the Danny Boyle 28 Days Later playbook. However, it didn't progress far from the stated theme of Zombies + Big Brother. Interesting that most of the ethnic housemates were the first to go, though. I guess that's supposed to say something about racism in England, but the theme barely developed further than that. Also, they wasted the supremely amusing Kevin Eldon (Big Train, Spaced, Nighty-Night) in the role of the resident pretentious arsewipe. Still, it's a good ride.
6. Mad Men's Jon Hamm was wonderful on SNL. I hope Affleck does well this week, but how awesome was The Vincent Price Halloween Special with Bill Hader, Kristen Wiig and Hamm? I loved how they managed to squeeze in a "Jeezy Creezy" in there - a deliberate shout-out, I'm assuming, for Eddie Izzard fans. And Jon Hamm's John Ham. And Pat Deldaux-Finger: Putting Fingers in Butts. Classic episode - and they've been on a roll these days. The only bad recent ep is the Michael Phelps one, come to think of it, and even that had "I can see Russia from my house!"
7. I haven't seen a movie since Body of Lies. Any recs for my post-massage afternoon?
