Catching Up
Things I missed while working on Thirty Years in Thirty Days:
Baby Stuff Avery's kept up with her blog pretty well, actually. She's holding her head up by herself, rolling over with more intent, and figuring out that when she screams bloody murder we pick her up.
The Harry Potter Release Coop and I planned to attend the midnight party July 20. Unfortunately, by the time we got there at 11:15 the joint was already too full for us to partake of wizard games and whatnot. I say "unfortunately" knowing that it makes me a huge nerd, but at least I'm not such a big nerd that I make my own Hogwarts uniform.
Oh, and there was a book that came out, too, apparently. I was right on a lot of my predictions, especially the part about the dishwashers coming to life and holding Prince Wills hostage.
The Next Food Network Star I've said it before: this contest is totally rigged. Food Network decides who it wants to win on the basis of the submission tapes. Then in the commercials for the show, the network positions one contestant as a vile charlatan to be despised, and puts that person in the finals. Of course, then America (and by "America" I mean "the handful of losers to whom this dreck actually matters") picks the other one on the basis that we don't need another Rachael Ray.
Think about it. Deborah was "ticked off right now" and she lost to the Hearty Boys. Reggie was shrill and in your face during every single promo and Guy beat him out. Now, even though Rory wanted it "so freakin' bad," who won? Amy. Tell me that's not a back-handed smear campaign.
Back to Evil Incarnate for a minute ...
The New 30 Minute Meals Intro Come on, people. We already see enough of Rachael's new fright mask during the show. Didja have to put her and her eyeliner in the opening? The corn was fine. Though I suppose, given the network's current direction, that they're trying to remove as many references to cooking as possible. (Hey, it worked for G4 and gaming.)
The Tigers' Ridiculous Slide Maybe I need to reassess my prediction of AL Central champs. If this keeps up, they'll be lucky to snag the wild card.
The Alberto Gonzales Trial, Drunken Astronauts, and/or YouTube Debates Aw, who has time for that? I'm too busy cursing the Twins and mocking Sandra Lee's collagen injections.

why you cursing my Twins? What have they done to you?! :P Besides shouldn't you be worried about the Indians who are only 1 game back? I have given up on the Twins even remotely making the play offs this year-can't play consistantly to save their lives. Here is hoping that the organization at least signs Hunter and Santana back...
You fixed your RSS issue! YAY! And if you didn't, it fixed itself. Either way, thanks and woo!
I don't know if I want to watch 30 Minute Meals now that you say that, but I might have to just to see how bad it is.
