I'm seriously going to start writing less. Sorry.

There are a lot of actually really, really famous people with these journals. Like, not that figure skaters aren't famous or whatever, no offense, but I mean like the kind of musicians that people throw underwear at (which they don't do in figure skating or, I'm pretty sure, speed skating either) and there are a lot of actors, and it's weird.

I've added a few actors and actresses or musicians who I'm like "Hi, you've never seen me skate but ohmigod I love your movie(s)/TV show/music." I feel very weird doing it, especially since there's no commenting. Ever. But it's the idea?

John Stewart made me laugh so damn hard tonight. Wherever the 3-6 Mafia was heading was never gonna know what hit it.

[teter_h]

It's especially weird with the musicians, because it's like, well yeah, I watch tv, and movies are cool, but some of the musicians today are just geniuses, you know? And it's like, okay: I wrote an entry about google and monkeys in bikinis.

So there's that.

Your journal's really good, though. It's interesting. Since I don't think I mentioned or that I've said anything smart enough to make you think that I noticed, but I did.

And definitely, it was a lot funnier this year than I usually remember it being. Not just him, but the whole thing in general. Did you notice that?

Exactly. "Well, I drove around with your song on repeat really loud for two weeks straight..." It sounds so creepy. I wrote an entry about David Bowie and that unidentifiable pink crap in boxes of chocolates. I appreciated the google and monkeys in bikinis entry, I really did.

Thank you. :)

I was not thrilled with Chris Rock last year, so most anything would've been better. But yeah, I definitely thought it was funnier. And is it me or is the Academy getting its shit together enough to not have the thing drag on for five hours?

[teter_h]

And it's not like anyone can say anything like that about people like us. "I tried to chip away some of the ice from the rink you skated on, but then the police showed up." Like, it just doesn't work. "I took some of the snow you shredded and I shoved it down my pants..."

Actually, that would be creepy, though.

And hey, I'm glad you appreciated it. Certain other people thought it made me a pervert, I guess. (And that was the part that bothered them, too. Not "bubble sex," which you would think would be the real issue.)

Also, yeah, the last few years have been pretty dull. Stewart's amazing, though. Like, I'm still kind of on the media circuit, off and on still since the Olympics, and I don't really think I'll feel like I've "made it" or whatever until I'm on his show. That'd be the shit.

And how crazy was that? It ended at a half hour mark even. I thought at first that I'd fallen asleep through some of it, it was over so quick.

hey, i don't know about this rest of this, but you should get one of your fangirls to help you with that knee since you keep forgetting about it. not elena though.

we should get you a wheelchair next time we go to the mall. i bet that would help

[teter_h]

Maybe you should help me with my knee, just a thought.

[tbonebright]

help you what?

oh, you want me to fetch ice

[teter_h]

Wait, what do you mean "I don't know about the rest of this"?

Or, like: "i don't know about this rest of this"? What does that mean?

[slbourne]

I felt sort of odd adding people who weren't athletes at first because I expected to get the reaction "Who the hell are you?" and in some cases I did but a few of them are really cool. Actually I get that "who the hell are you" reaction from some of the athletes too. I can't win..haha.

[teter_h]

It's kind of funny actually, but it seems like the team sports that aren't supposed to be about individuals are the ones that have all the faces that people recognize, and the sports about individuals and just doing your thing or whatever, those go more unnoticed.

Except in my case, I guess, where I can't name any football or basketball players that are still playing, for the most part.

[j_cheek]

Well, I'm pretty sure Ohno has panties thrown at him once in a while. Or maybe not. I don't know.

It's sort of.. intimidating seeing famous people around. I mean, Spielberg? I still remember seeing E.T. when I was 4 and went "ooooh, I want one.." Crazy stuff.

Good luck with the knee!

[teter_h]

Dude, you wanted a long-necked alien of your own, too? 'Cause I honestly used to think I was the only one.

Thanks, though, seriously.

[j_cheek]

We need to start a club.

Wow. We're such revolutionaries. First the Costas thing, now this.

[cecilia82]

Don't write less. I love reading your entries.

[teter_h]

That's really nice of you, seriously. But, I don't know, maybe you're one of the only ones, you know. I kind of ramble, I feel like.
