Alright. Forgoing the explanation about where the hell I've been (same drill as last time, with a little added net burn-out), I come back to LJ-land with this link to, honestly, one of the most fucked-up, hilarious things I have ever seen. It's a Japanese ad for Kikoman Soy Sauce. It's just...I'm at a loss. I did get a woman in my office to ( Read more... )

Work, wedding planning, work, work, issues, WORK. Yeah, I've been a sucky LJ-er for the past few weeks and those are my excuses. Big crackdown in marketing, the CEO is camping out in our department for the month, hence - net activity has been sparse and covert. Like now, all the execs are in a meeting and I am free to look at my Friends list ( Read more... )

If my life were an episode of Smallville, it would be called "Displacement" and revolve around a hard-working, unassuming young LexCorp employee who can ONLY TAKE SO MUCH SHIT. I guess she'd have to possess some krypto-enhanced diabolical abilities of some sort, I haven't quite figured that out yet. See, what happens is they keep moving her around ( Read more... )

Who's watching Cher's farewell concert with me tonight? Come on! I actually saw this concert last fall, it was quite entertaining. And Cyndi "I'm biding my time til I kick Celine's skinny ass" Lauper opened up for her! Best opening act ever. She danced with my friend J.D. from high school - I saw it on the jumbo tron ( Read more... )

The only sports I get excited about are baseball and tennis, and we're coming up on the season for both. (Topic: Andre Agassi is totally fucking hot and will take both Wimbledon and the U.S. Open this year. And 'Andre' is a really good name for a first-born son. Discuss.) The Twins home opener is tonight! No offense to anyone in Toronto, but ( Read more... )

...is, apparently, lawn fertilizer. Or something, I had my walkman tuned to a different station this morning at the gym, but definitely caught a commercial starring one John Schneider hocking Miracle Gro. Maybe it was another brand. Anyway, he was totally Jonathan Kent-ing it up with a yellow lab on a beautiful green Kent-ish lawn ( Read more... )

Being a member of the R.E.M. fanclub has never been something I'm embarrassed to admit, especially since they started doing the presale ticketing and reserved fanclub member seating to concerts. Last time they went on tour, I saw an amazing show from amazing seats at Red Rocks in CO. I'm gonna say it was the best concert I've ever seen, and that ( Read more... )

Nothing really noteworthy to report, just wanted to remind all you movie fans that Turner Classic Movies is showing The Philadelphia Story at 8PM (EST) tonight. Kate, Cary and my eternal classic Hollywood boyfriend, James Stewart. *Sigh*. How I adore him. Could you ask for a better ensemble cast?

Oh, the Oscars. What can I say? Other than I *love* that color on J.Lo? They actually gave awards to some deserving people this year, that was nice. Adrian Brody, I love you. Michael Moore? I now dislike you more than Harvey Weinstein, and that's saying a lot. It's still utterly stupefying to me that EMINEM now possesses an ACADEMY AWARD. Now that ( Read more... )

So here's my problem - I'm in love with Damian Lewis (still rather unknown in the U.S.; best known for role as Maj. Dick Winters in HBO's Band of Brothers). Naturally, the chance to see him larger than life on the silver screen is quite attractive. And, as his fake-girlfriend, I feel I have a kind of obligation to see his new movie, "Dreamcatcher ( Read more... )
