"The greatest gains and values are farthest from being appreciated.... The harvest of my daily life is somewhat as intangible and indescribable as the tints of morning or evening. It is a little star-dust caught, a segment of the rainbow which I have clutched." - Henry David Thoreau

| Freemasons run the country! lunes, 2 de octubre, 2006 Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw domingo, 1 de octubre, 2006 I've visited my family up in CT several times now, and it's very nice to be away from NYC to be in a suburb-like area (though technically Norwich is called a city). There's absolute silence during the night (except the crickets), there are more stars to be seen (though, not much).
Yet one of the things that will keep me rooted in the city is the water. NYC WATER IS AWESOME! Drinking Connecticutian water left a weird aftertaste. Now I know why children have so many cavities, because they drink juices and soft drinks in lieu of their sucky drinking water supply. Hah, j/k. But that'd be an interesting theory.
Welp, in conjunction to the previous paragraph, I'm off to the dentist.

Edit OH NO! I HAVE A CAVITY! MY NIGHTMARES HAVE BECOME TRUE! This is my first cavity ever... my perfect, pale yellow teeth are marred...

You know when I woke up? TEN MINUTES LATER!! Now I'll have to go in the morning to the post office to pick it up. It's not that far away or anything... I just like for them to come to me so then I can open it immediately. Ten more hours...

I'm not surprised at this development, since I got the vibe that a majority of the people didn't think Pluto was a real planet, but I'm still a little sad. Now it will have to be My Very Eager Mother Just Served Us Napalm... or something. (Noodles?)
The Plutonians will be so pissed. In a few hours.

I can't believe that, as a teen, I used to vote on this show. I stopped after a couple of years when I realized no one I picked won, and that it's just a huge popularity contest (duh, Lily, why didn't you figure that out sooner???).
This year was the first time I'd seen it in a while. Everything is still the same. Basically, the celebrities that are there will win. Oh no, I figured out the secret! Seven years ago!
I wonder how much money the bikini-clad chicks were paid for sitting in what appeared to be tepid and stagnant hot-tub water -- at least, it only seemed to be tepid and stagnant for the first half of the show. That was lame, too.
The saddest part of the show wasn't Kevin Federline's debut performance, surprisingly (don't worry, it's second), but Brooke Hogan, who easily spent the longest time up on the podium because she was discussing and thanking everyone from her fans to her family (father) for winning best grill. The fact that she seemed genuinely sincere to win a surfboard for best superfluous braces and the fact that "best grill" even exists as a category is tragic to mankind. The fact that the cameraman and producers seemed to ignore Brooke's come-hither gestures for a closer look at her busted teeth gives me a little hope, however.
The only good parts I remember: Jensen Ackles and Jessica Alba. Wouldn't they make the prettiest babies, and have the best interchangeable monogrammed towels ever?
