I'm on fucking facebook. fuck me.  Why do I act like an old man around technology?

Andrews a lying sack of shit who used Jesus as an excuse to break up with me.  Jesus may not be my personal savior but we have gotten to know each other lately and I'm offended on his behaf.  That and really? you dont have to lie you asshole, just tell me your not interested and whatever, I dont need you or your erratic English accent or ridiculous clothes or stupid fucking hat.  You're from fucking London you dipshit, you're not ghetto.  I'm a hot intelligent twenty year old American with a lot more integrity than you will ever have.  And i have better teeth than you and guess what? You're cockyness?  not cute, just really fucking annoying.

Take that fuckface.

I need to cut my hair.  I can put in a ponytail, its too fucking long and I need a change.

I'm eating chocolate like whoah.

Why are the ghostbusters coming back?

I need more Merlin.

MDC can suck it.

I cant wait for DragonCon.

Anderson, I'm dissappointed in you, cover Iran with some goddamn guts.

Christiane, I love you.

Stephen Colbert you illogical wonderful bastard what have you done to your hair?

I work with a guy named James Kirk.  No I'm not kidding.  Yes he's fucking hot.  No, he's not single.  Yes, he knows he's hot.  Yes, that is somehow appropriate.

Obama needs to accomplish something major.  I feel like he's still trying to sell his case to me and I'm like, "dude, i voted for you, you dont have to keep campaigning, do something."

My epic spash page is now an epic splsh painting.

The Star Trek XI kink meme...oh dont pretend like you havent been there, unless youre Adam or Darkis or MAYBE Teresa (in which case girl do you realise what epic slash you are missing???)..anyway, parts1-3 focused on sex pollen and orgies and daddy issues/angst, but part four is all about the tentacles.

that last part?  why i need an alias when I become a journalist.

and author.

young adult author.

im so fucked.

I love my family.  I had lunch with my Daddy today, i love that.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

Anderson Cooper is so ridiculously adorkable.  I love how socially retarded he is.  Buy a new mattress already!

Thats so many different kinds of ew.  Had he not been Anderson Cooper I would have been like "Ew! never ever, that guy is so gross!!!!"

Instead I'm rationalizing it saying that with all the time he spends abroad he must not use it that much.

I'm so lame.

I love the people I work with.  This is the greatest group of people I have have chance to work with.  I actually got out early tonight and was able to watch Anderson live from Mexico because of teamwork.

Speaking of my newsman, this drug war is insane.  Ray is pretty sure we are going to have actual military conflict, I'm not sure but I do know that it's making me nervous.  These guys are packing unimaginable heat.  The worst part is that it's America's unimaginable and isatiable hunger for illegal drugs thats causing this.

For the moment I just hope no one shoots Anderson.  An American sheriff just said that his Mexican counterpart who he worked with was killed and beheaded and his family was sent his head in an ice chest.  I feel sick.  The disgusting waste of human life and the violence and torture implemented by these monsters is absolutly revolting.

Speaking of world events, whos taking part in Earth hour?  I'm at work at that hour and my Grandma will be in Pines so by default I'm participating.  I think its a really cool idea, regardless of whether or not it has an actual effect on the energy crisis it's a brilliant example of the global community created by the internet and television.  The world can do things together.  Good things.

off topic but:  I love CNN trying to use the magic map post-election.  It's like "quick!  we could use a useless visual aid!  bring on the map!"

Oi vEy.  Sometimes I think the world's exploding, others I'm filled with hope.

I feel really silly but I have to make a confession.

Dear Anderson,

I'm sorry I've been neglecting you and your precious news lately, you and I both know it's not like me to go so long without watching but you see, I got a new job.  This job is great, it's paying for school, and I work with great people and I dont feel like commiting suicide everytime I walk in the door like I did at Shells.  Sure I'm still a waitress, and YES, I know I'm in Miami and I've just joined the tourist industry by working at this particular resturant, but its not that evil I swear.  But lately, my bartender, in a favor to me, has been playing you at night.  This would be great right?  I mean I get the best of both worlds right?

Except I cant fucking hear you.  Which blows. 

You are drowned out by goddamn calypso music, steel drums and reggae.  And I cant figure out the damn closed captioning. 

It sucks so much, there you are in all your silverfox glory and I can SEE you i just can freaking hear you which is driving me up the carribbean themed walls.

So yeah, I feel like I'm cheating on you with a slightly cheezy bahamian themed resturant filled with lots of fake plants and annoying music.  (which for those of you who dont live here, we dont honestly listen to down here all that much.  We play it for your benefit.)
I just wanted to tell you that my feelings for you havent changed, I still adore you, I just cant hear you.

I swear you havent been replaced by the Mountie either, though to be honest, the wolf is a contender.
if you can, let the rest of the PRT know that the same goes for them, I still love them more than any one, I just dont have any sound.

Love,
Fancy.

OMG love letter to David Gergen!  Gergen really is the mackdaddy of politics.

Anderson you are a mean, mean man and I love you.


Keith did that creepy porn voice again last night, AND he was on Letterman in case McCain didnt show up. 

I love him too.



I need to stop crushing on men in their forties with grey hair.

Tonight I came to these conclusions:

Richard Lewis is insane in an amazingly awesome way.  Jon was just hanging on there for a while.

I love the toss.

Obama is just laughing at McCain's stupidity at this point.  I also think that Obama's answer to the abortion question was the best I've yet heard from a politician, and it made McCain's seem petty.

CNN has divided the Best Political Team on Television into two tables: the best political team and those other guys who work for us AND someone else so we are going to put them at that other table with the least flattering camera angles and Roland Martin doesnt get a chair.

Amy Holmes needs to go far, far away.  Why the fuck is she on TV?

Donna Brazile is so fucking awesome, and you KNOW she wants to slap Holmes.

Roland Martin is wearing an Olbermann tie.  Seriously, it's painful to look at and somewhere out there Keith is drooling over how hideous that tie is.  Also, he doesnt have a chair.

Kelly Rippa's right, when David Gergan speaks, all is well.

Paul Begala makes me inexplicably amused and happy.

Campbell Brown is really fucking annoying.

Candy Crowely (there's a woman who decided to overcome a really unfortunet name) looks amazing tonight and is as intelligent and fair-minded as usual.

It is SO WIERD watching John King and Dana Bash now that they're married.  Especially when they are sitting next to each other, they are so...wierd.  They are the least likely couple I could have imagined.

Blitzer is The Blitzer, all is well.

and of course....Anderson Cooper is smart and gorgeous and almost...I dont want to say bored, but whenever Brown is talking he doesnt even attempt to look interested, his hands go into his pockets and he kicks his feet.  He seems amused by Gergan though.

I love that MSNBC now has Rachel and Pat Buchanan anchoring, it's like "quick! find two polar opposites who get along fairly well and stick them at the table so we can legitamitly(SP?) get away with whatever Olbermann's going to say after this!"

Ah, politics.



Okay, so seriously, why doesnt Roland Martin get a chair?

I'm at my saturation point.

Ray and I decided this after the debate tonight. I just have completely had my fill of politics and political analysis and all that shit. I couldnt even watch Keith or Anderson's debate coverage cause I'm so freaking sick of it! And I LOVE those boys, apparently my father thinks I get up in the morning only so I can watch msnbc and cnn.

Whatever, daddy.

But yeah, I'm wanting this election to endso badly it's ridiculous. I want Anderson to be able to talk about Darfur, or Keith to have a rant about baseball, I want to not hear fucking Palin ever talk. I'm just done, I want to talk about something else, but as Ray pointed out, we cant, because we just are so passionate about what we believe in that the idea of not being informed about this stuff is blasphemous.

Speaking of which, McCain, Obama: poor Tom Brokaw, wtf did he ever do to you guys?

Any way, we now know that my unborn baby sibling is a boy and will be named after my father, poor kid. I call him godzilla because at one point during his zygote stage he looked like godzilla. He had a tail. Thusly, Godzilla.

sleep would be good at some point but yeah...like that will happen.

PS: Anderson looks GOOOOOD tonight, nice suit and tie buddy.

Yeah yeah, I know, I havent posted in forever but I have had some serious computer problems mingling with a nice bout of depression. Whatever, I'm getting better though and decided to get back on here. School started up again, I'm almost done with my AA YAY!!!!!!!!!

It's talk like a pirate day, as Ray so cheerfully reminded me at like 8 this morning. Not to mention all my anchors spoke like pirates at some point in their broadcasts. Yes, Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow and Anderson I-can-not-get-through-a broadcast-without-stuttering Cooper all spoke like pirates. Poor Anderson, his was sadly the girliest pirate of the punditry pirate party. I love the boy though and would just like to say, him, cowering before the loud and unfortunetly extremely intelligent Sue Orrman (SP?) was adorable. I wanted to jump through the TV and smack her with a newspaper.

My grandparents are due to show up at some point in the next 7 to 10 days, I'm not supposed to know this but my parents let it spill so I could clean my room. btw, yes daddy, my room is spotless, L'mom has rubbed off on me, I even rearranged the furniture. I nearly killed myself, but I did it.

On another note, Gov. Palin? omg I want her to go away so fucking badly. She's obnoxious, shrill, stupid, vapid, devious and a fucking 'Dynasty' chick if I've ever seen one. The SNL sketch summed it up so freaking well. For those of you like my dad, who either live under a rock or without cable, I give you the vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoMng0PndcY

PLEASE check it out, its awesome. Her response and that damn Hannity interview maybe only moreso:

I love Jon Stewart.  I really do.

Btw, Keith Olbermann gives 100 dollars to the Alaskan Special Olympics (whose funding was cut by Palin the "Special Needs Advocate") everytime he catches her in a lie.  This weeks check?  3700 dollars.

I LOVE that man.

Also, I was in an elevator at dragon*con with Gareth David-Loyd, the guy who plays Ianto Jones on Torchwood, and we had a conversation.  He was so sweet!

Bye!

Dudes.  Hello.

I know it's been forever but I had to get some things together.

Life has been difficult, not suprisingly since I'm broke and just lost my uncle and I have this wierd thing going on with Richard, that kinda needs to stop.  

Aside from that though, I have been good. I have a new lease on life you could say, most of it due to a defined direction in life.  I am now double majoring in Anthropology and Journalism and I am going to do what Anderson Cooper does, except more focused on ethnographies about African and Middle Eastern tribes.  I was completely inspired.  I got to see him speak at the University of Miami last Monday and it was amazing.  He's absolutely brilliant and funny and heartfelt and...well, he's amazing and that was an amazing moment in my life.

I feel the need to go on an adventure.  the combined frces of the new season of DW and re-runs of SG-1 are doing it to me.

 The Coop was just on Live with Regis and Kelly...can I just say that she is the cutest thing ever?...anyway, i love how everytime someone refers to him as New Orleans savior or the hero of New Orleans or something he brushes right past it like "No I'm not...so Charleze Theron is going to be on..."  The guest band, Cowboy Mouth, was from NOLA and thanked Anderson for all his work down there.  Again, he acted like it was no big thing.

He also gets scary uncomfortable when someone calls him hot or handsome, Kelly pointed out that OK magazine named him number two (right behind George Clooney) in their "Silver Foxes" list, and half a dozen women, including the guests and the Yeti Trivia a Go-Go call-in winner commented on how yummy he is and he got all stuttery and tried to change the subject.

He was funny as usual and made this amazing Paula Abdul impression with Kelly that made me laugh hysterically.  Anderson says he watches inane television in order to unwind because so much of his day is about the news--explains why he's the only cable news guy not engaged in the big rivalry thing--he says his favorite thing to do after a long day of handleing serious news is to watch reruns of "My Super Sweet Sixteen" just because of how stupidly spoiled the girls are.  he once said they should be shot for being such brats and that the parents were idiots to let them get away with that behaivior.

When a Vanderbilt says something like that, it's noteworthy. 

Course it helps that the man has spent most o his life around children who are malnurished or sold into the sex trade.

Ultimately what I'm trying to say here is how freaking awesome he guy is.  he's gorgeous, rich, sucessful and smart but any time someone goes to point that out he's all "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"

I think thats pretty damn cool.
