(no subject)
Just looking out the window and it's a gorgeous day today! It is nice to wake up in 'winter' (well, approaching) and see that it's sunny t-shirt weather, it really is. No bad moods when the sun is shining, right? Hee. (Yesterday was incredibly grey and gloomy though. Not that it bothers me in the slightest, but what a contrast.)
Two days ago we all went along to the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, the largest in the southern hemisphere. In a nutshell, we spent five hours boarding these incredible boats and walking through them. INCREDIBLE. BOATS. Like, the shiny white things really really rich people buy for $5 million dollars and cruise around in. Think 30 Rock's second episode.
It was amazing. A part of me feels queasy about the amount that people spend on these yachts when, hey, let's end world poverty! But another less-rational part of me went "THIS IS AMAZING I WANT TO LIVE HERE AND SIP CHAMPAGNE AND SMOKE A CIGAR". Thanks, Brain. But it was super fun and I got a free showbag, so life's good.
I don't know if y'all have seen this, but a friend highlighted this short clip to me recently: Evidence showing that, really, Justin Bieber is a kid who just got lucky. BWAHAHAHA. Kiwi accents always crack me up.
Yesterday morning, about fifteen minutes away from me, 1500 people dressed up in blue and had a massive beach dance party in a bid to bring Ellen to Australia. That's dedication. But it's about freakin' time she came out here!
I know I've got at least one Collingwood supporter on my flist (sorry!) but thank Christ Geelong won last night. They are just so, so good.
After seeing Usher on Hey Hey I REALLY WANT TO GO TO HIS CONCERT.
Season finale week has bummed me out less than usual because really, it's only 30 Rock that affects me in that way now. (I've fallen behind in Grey's again and what's that Private Practice show again?) Then again, not having 30 Rock each week is enough to cause me to be mopey, but I digress.
30 Rock 4x22 I Do Do
1. "Why is your face like that?" I WILL MISS YOU WESLEY SNIPES. COME BACK SOON, K.
2. I WILL ALSO MISS YOU NANCY. My last entry showed my flist to have a clear preference for her over Avery. (Hooray!) However, the Facebook groupies all went for Avery. So clearly I'm just friends with cooler people. AMIRITE.
3. "Sky Law. It's when I put on the 'fasten seatbelt' sign and no one's allowed to move until we've had ten minutes of silence. I made the whole thing up, but you know, people are stupid. They don't question it." BRILLIANT. Matt Damon was okay in that I liked Carroll but ultimately, it didn't do much for me.
4. OHAI, Moonvest. I loved the fake!dramatic background music.
5. Tracy dancing in front of the gospel choir at Grizz's wedding. 'Nuff said.
6. It really does happy me when Jenna is happy with love and life. I hope he sticks around.
7. AVERY. WHAT THE FUCK. I CANNOT COMPREHEND THIS BUT I REALLY REALLY HOPE SHE'S LYING OR IT'S NOT JACK'S OR SHE'S BEEN EATING TOO MUCH SABOR DE SOLEDAD OR HER FREAKY BIRTH CONTROL PILLS HAVE LIED TO HER. She irritates me, and Jack should not have a child with that woman. I don't even know if he should have a kid, period. Though definitely with Nancy - or there are other options, aren't there Colleen, but we won't go there.
I liked the episode except for that dark, gloomy shadow which unfortunately put me in a funk afterwards. Sigh. Also, the lack of lovely season-finale-tender moments between Jack and Liz.
Meanwhile, I want to watch Laws of Attraction for the thousandth time, just to get my Julianne Moore-Michael Sheen fix. IF THEY CAN'T BE ON THIS SHOW THEN THEY SHALL BE IN A MOVIE WHERE PIERCE BROSNAN DRINKS GOATS NUTS AND PUTS ON AN IRISH ACCENT.
Have a great weekend, everyone! Cec out.
