Okay, someone out there, please explain to me the appeal of Rachel McAdams. All right, she's lovely, but not so much more than any other Hollywood actress and definitely less attractive than some. Is it her acting? I'll admit that I haven't seen her in much, and I've not been overly impressed. But then again, the things I've seen her she's in the role that I care least about. Sherlock Holmes? Irene basically seemed like an addition to the story to keep the slashiness in check. (Dear Script writer, it didn't work.) Mean Girls, where the insane quirkiness of all the character manage to overshadow the mostly boring protagonist (Oh, Lindsay I had such high hopes for you) adn even the main antagonist. Honestly, would you rather have a sequel about Regina and Cady or any other character? Except maybe the love intersest dude, whose name I don't even remember. Aaron? Anyway, and the only other movie I saw was Red Eye, which is granted, a movie that I take out everytime with the hopes that Cillian Murphey will win this time. So, like, I don't see the attraction.

| A surprisingly Productive Friday |
[ Sat May 22nd/ 3:02am ] |
Normally, Friday's are my lazy days. I don't care whether I have Saturday free or not. I have no focus when it comes to Friday which might be the reason why my boss hasn't scheduled me on Fridays for the past three weeks now. I'm sure as hell not complaining about it. On the down side, I missed Supernatural. I know I know it's a rerun, but I want to try and get myself accustomed to this whole new day. Expect bitching in the future. Not that I like going out on Fridays, anyway. Getting all prettied up and going up after a long day of classes? Nope, but still Supernatural Thursday was that shot that got me through Fridays. Now, there's just another reason to want the day to be over. Ugh. Wait, where was I going?
Anyway, I have a wedding location now, more or less. More in that, I definitely want to get married there. It's beautiful, better than anything I ever thought we'd be able to find. Less, since nothing is technically booked yet. They won't start booking for '15 until January 2, 2011, which is just next year, but they'll send us, well, me an email, so I'll be able to get the reservation in as soon as possible, because we are getting married on our date, and I'd really like it to be there, right? Anyway, to further sate Geek Boy Fiance we're getting married in the library, which is incredible albeit with a slightly odd colored carpet? But I'll live, considering how much the place is costing (not that much!), the fact that the entire bridal party gets rooms to change in (cars + gowns never seem to go well together), and it's the perfect place to have the ceremony and the reception. I can live with the oddly green-blue-gray carpet, and nobody short of Jesus would probably be able to convince me to change venues because I fell really good being able to check something off the list. I figure if I space everything out approrpriately, I won't drive myself crazy. And I have a venue and a musical group (hopefully) for the service, what does that leave me with? A whole lot of other stuff. Basically, all I have is date, a man, and a venue.
I did decide the other day that I'm cutting out the flowers. There has to be a better way to decorate than with something that's going to wilt a few days later and is going to make one-third of David's family sneeze. I'm thinking that the bridesmaids and I are going to have bouqets, but that's about it. I'd say bye-bye to the bouquets too, but I've absolutely fallen in love with this one and have decided that I must have it! Lucky for me there's a florist in the family. But really, no other flowers. Well, roses for the moms. Or maybe roses for his mom, and something else for mine who abhors them. Maybe a calla or something? Whatever. We'll see.

The world went batshit insane over this commercial. I'm still trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with it. I love it, and it's a hell of a lot less provocative than pretty much any Victoria Secret's commercial. Also, Ashley Grahamn is amazing. She's not knocking Crystal out of her spot as number one Plus sized model at the moment, but she could definitely! I think the world would be a better place if we had two top plus sized models. Anyway, she's beauty and well spoken.
Cheers to Lane Bryant! I'll probably be shopping there a lot more. Especially since Forever 21 has dropped XL from their roster. I'm five foot ten inches, F21 and I've been shopping there for ages and me and the girls need an extra large shirt.

| Happy Valentine's Day? |
[ Sun Feb 14th/ 4:20pm ] |
For reasons that I don't understand, David love of my life called me at eight in the morning. Naturally, it being a Sunday I was not awake yet and he proceeds to check to make sure that I didn't want to do anything today. Being groggy, I had no idea what the hell he was talking. What the hell are you talking about David? Oh, it's Valentines day. When have I ever done Valentine's Day? I am not physically or emotionally calable about caring less about this holiday than I do.
Now, look I'm not going to bash Valentines Day. It's just way to easy and if you like Valentine's Day, I'm not going to change your mind. I just don't get it. Enforced couple happiness day? Nope, I don't get it. People said I'd grow out of it, or I'd be interested when I got a boyfriend. Well, I've had a boyfriend for every Valentine's Day since '06 and my opinion's not changing.
Maybe it would if it wasn't the most annoying holiday as fas as television shows and commercials. Good, God and it's seeping into movies, which I saw with Lola. And basically it's Love Actually with Americans and all the heart, funniness, and sweetness drained out of it. And Real life. Good Lord, I've heard girls complain about what what their boyfriends got them. "I can't believe he bought me this cheap ass teddy bear." Actual sentence I heard one year. It was a cute teddy bear. Girls are bitchy, and it's basically a female pissing contest. My boyfriend's better than your boyfriend. Blech. So I will continue to ignore this day as I have been doing since we stopped having parties in class.
