2:53 am - Vacation
|
So I got back today from my vacation. No major problems until the red-eye flight we took. It was delayed two hours and we missed our connecting flight back to Harrisburg, so we had to wait at Dulles for 4 hours. My sleeping, eating and pooping schedule is all messed up now.

11:38 pm - So who here eats seafood?
|
|
If so, what do you eat? Shellfish? Fish? I've heard tilapia is like chicken and scallops were ok. Suggestions please and thanks you.

12:12 am - ABBA
|
All this hype about Mamma Mia has me dubious. I don't think Meryl Streep or Pierce Brosnan have the best voices. Christine Baranski seems like an interesting choice though. I don't know. Shannon and my sister want to see it so I guess I have no choice.
I've been finding some interesting ABBA stuff on youtube, which I will spare you. Nevertheless, if you are looking for something interesting, search for Just Like That. It was a song that was never released, however, bootlegs have surfaced on the internet (possibly stolen from Bjorn years ago). Parts of the song became Under Attack and it was rumored that when working on Mamma Mia, they might have fit in JLT. The song was reworked into a song by the group Gemini and the verse of a new song for a Swedish revival of Chess. I have the dream version but the NaNa version is something special. Also look for user Madonnafrozen's version of Hamlet.

10:13 am - Food Network talk
|
I just say a commercial for Anne Burrell's new show to debut next week. Anyone who watches Iron Chef America will recognize her as Mario Batalie's spiky blonde sous chef. It about secrets of restuarant chefs and I think it sounds like a great show.
What I don't understand is the other new shows that Food Network has trotted out: Cooking for Real and Chic & Easy. I don't get either one of these shows. The food doesn't impress me much as I watched Chich and Easy once and basically made Spaghetti with a chopped lettuce salad, then she took the time to make her own caramel sauce. Forget that; I'll open up a jar. I guess I'm confused as to why they put these relative unknowns with their own shows and still have the Next Food Network star.
With HGTV, they've recycled a lot of the talent from cancelled TLC shows and their own programs. Scripps Network who owns both channels seem to have gotten it right with HGTV but Food Network programming seems to have went downhill. No more Barefoot Contessa episodes and Nigella Lawson seems to have disappeared as well.

11:35 pm - Travel
|
I'll be visiting Seattle this time next month. Yes, I don't care for the beach and Shannon is ready for winter already. Anyone have any suggestions of things they like to do? Sorry, ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) caliburnsusanto, Portland was on the list but he wasn't really keen on it.

10:06 pm - Anti-Meme.
|
|
I thought about the 10 things to say meme or whatever it is for about 2.5 seconds and then realized that if I have anything to say to any of you, I'm going to say it and not hide it behind vague statements.

12:14 am - youtube post, sorry
|
So i was on yahoo and saw a video about a cat who was playing a theremin. Well, not really. Anyway, it did pique my interest and I found this on youtube:
I was on youtube a lot and listened to one of my favorite, less-known, songs from the 80's.
Then I started remembering a song I used to sing in karaoke, before I became a fuddy-duddy and sat at home all the time.

9:26 pm - A few more things
|
Was at my parents house the past few days to attend my grandmother's viewing and funeral. I only have 1 grandparent now.
My parents have BBCAmerica. I miss it. I need to get digital cable back.
I was wondering if I should give up on LJ today. I realized that I do like you guys and even though I don't have much to say, I enjoy other people's stories.

8:50 am - Just a few things
|
|
Sorry, I have not been very active. Been busy, too busy to see the new Iron Man movie. Work sucks. Been fighting a bad cold. Don't have any Memorial Day plans but my paternal grandmother is on her deathbed so we might be making an unexpected trip home. And please, no prayers or "I'm sorry." It happens. If I don't get back on for a few days, hope everyone has a nice Memorial Day weekend.

7:56 pm - I can't believe no one posted about this
|
Probably shouldn't play at work. I've listened to this over and over and was brought to tears with laughter.

8:22 pm - Apologies
|

I'm sorry I don't post hardly at all. I started turning more into a commenter than a poster. Now it seems I'm not much of a commenter either. Nothing is bad, but I've just been enwrapped in facebook.

So the B-52s are gonna be on the True Colors tour this year. I really want to go. They'll be playing in NY and DC. DC would be much closer but I don't care for Regina Spektor and know nothing of Tegan and Sara. NY has Indigo Girls too so NY would be quite tempting.
However, the B's are touring before True Colors. They'll be in Phila 4-25-08 at the Theater of Living Arts and DC 4-26-08 at the 9:30 Club. I think I hate driving in Phila more than I hate driving in DC. But Phila might be a better venue. *sigh*
current mood:  annoyed
