i don't want to go to work :(
Guys, I'm a crybaby today.
Keri left for work like, two hours ago, and I miss her already. A lot. This is already shaping up to be a really long day, when it really shouldn't be. I want a Keri hug. :(
And I just watched the E! True Hollywood Story of "Friends", which I've seen at LEAST four times (and I think I've posted about it) and every time I feel this little tugging at my heart because I miss that show so much. It was such a huge part of my life and it was probably my most hardcore obsession to date. When they start showing footage and talking about the taping of the last episode, I pretty much lose it. Because I'm lame.
Also... guys, when you've been having stomach problems for two weeks, it's probably not a good idea to eat mashed potatoes immediately followed by yogurt. Ohhhh jesus.
And now, a meme that I've been working on since last night (during "House", which I should probably rewatch since I honestly have no idea what was going on.)

[03] - Post a fun and random bit of trivia from each film.
Miss Congeniality (2000)
The scene with Gracie coming home after the mission in the restaurant was only scripted as "Gracie comes home and starts boxing". The rest (tripping, kicking the bed, microwave oven) was ad-libbed by Sandra Bullock.
Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
In the asteroid scene, one of the asteroids is actually a shoe. The rumor is that George Lucas asked the SFX people to redo the scene so many times that they got annoyed and one of them threw in their shoe.
(This is literally the most interesting one I could find, which is weird.)
The Departed (2006)
Mark Wahlberg based his performance on the police officers who'd arrested him about two dozen times in his youth, and the reactions of his parents who had to come bail him out with their grocery money.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)
In order to acquaint himself with his three lead actors, director Alfonso Cuarón had each of them write an essay about their characters, from a first-person point of view. Emma Watson, in true Hermione fashion, went a little overboard and wrote a 16-page essay. Daniel Radcliffe wrote a simple one-page summary, and Rupert Grint never even turned his in.
Toy Story (1995)
The toolbox that Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) pushes off the milk crate bears the name "Binford Tools," the name of the company which sponsors Allen's character's show in "Home Improvement".
Love Actually (2003)
Kris Marshall (Colin Frissell) returned his pay check for the scene where the three American girls undress him. He said he had such a great time having three girls undress him for 21 takes, that he was willing to do it for free, and thus returned his check for that day.
Scream (1996)
Rose McGowan discovered that she could actually fit through a pet flap.
Erin Brockovich (2000)
The real Erin Brockovich appears as a waitress named Julia.
Fever Pitch (2005)
Jessamy R. Finet (Theresa) is an actual, die-hard Red Sox fan who appeared in Still We Believe: The Boston Red Sox Movie, a documentary about the Red Sox's heartbreaking 2003 season. Jimmy Fallon saw the film and convinced producers to cast her for the role of Theresa.
Mallrats (1995)
While shopping, Rene Mosier (Shannen Doherty) is seen wearing at least three different outfits. Doherty had a clause in her contract that she could keep everything her character wore, so came up with the plan that her character should wear everything she bought on her shopping trip.
