CLAP HANDS, SQUEAL WITH GLEE!

Oh my god, Universal Studios Island of Adventure (an already awesome theme park) is opening up a Harry Potter Theme Park. It will include the village of Hogsmeade, Hogwarts Castle and the Forbidden Forest.  I am so beyond excited about this, I teared up a little reading about it over at Mugglenet.com (It’s run by [...]

Awwwww!

Last night, I ran into the old man I share my living space with for the next few days or so and for the second time since I moved in, he said, “Good evening” and I jumped a foot and screamed a little.  He starts laughing and goes, “Oh, I scare you again!  I should [...]

How Did You Spend Memorial Day Weekend?

I spent my weekend doing all sorts of fun stuff. First, on Friday before work I took some pictures (per Mom’s request) of the outside of the Victorian house I’m staying in this summer. I also took some pictures of my office, but it’s still pretty bare. It’ll look better after this coming week, when [...]

American Idol: Sparks, they are a flyin’

Holy balls, a two hour results show. I’m here with you, gang. I’ll talk about the good, the bad and the unlistenable. This is going to be even worse than the 3-hour Survivor. The only way the American Idol finale could be more awful would be if Blake and Jordin had to go on a [...]

My New Job!

So, here’s an update on my new job.  First off, I have my own office.  It’s on the second floor of the firm, which is actually the third floor of the building.  And it’s not, like, some supply closet they converted to an office for the summer.  It’s an actual office.  I’m going to use [...]

American Idol: Crown Her Ass Already.

Before we get to the singing tonight, I feel like we need to address the judges. Simon looks totally normal. He’s actually better than normal because he’s rocking a suit coat and there is no icky chest hair sprouting from his v-neck. HOWEVER. Randy is wearing a remnant from the Cedar Falls Community Theatre production [...]

Taking Grand Rapids By Storm!

I have arrived!  Not much to report:  found my digs, got some groceries, drove around to get a feel for the place, found a glorious Mecca where I could have a beer, watch the games, eat a delicious steak with a side of absolutely amazing smashed cauliflower and also use free wireless internet.  It is [...]

American Idol: Actually Surprised

This is going to be short, kiddos. I can’t believe we had an hour-long results show when there are only 3 contestants left. Also, I’m still pretty surprised at how it went down. First, we get a recap of last night’s performances. Whoopie. We were all there. Then we get a talk about the Idol [...]

American Idol: Showdown for the Kodak Theatre

It’s the week where they send the Final Three back to their hometowns and they each get to sing 3 songs, one picked by the producer, one picked by a judge and one picked by themselves. It’s always interesting to see which judge picked which Idol. I predict Paula/Blake, Randy/Melinda and Simon/Jordin. The judges look [...]

Survivor: These 3-hour Shows are a BITCH

Alright kids. Between a Con Law final, the pants party, a Business Associations finale and a giant paper for Advanced Environmental Law, somehow I found the time to watch Survivor and bring it to you all. All money and/or baked goods can be sent directly to Cavanaugh Hall, Notre Dame, Indiana.
The previouslies are an entire [...]
