So I am sitting here watching It's Complicated with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. And I am watching it because I really love Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin, and because I was told by many people how hilarious it is.
And it is. I am laughing.
However, that being said, the character Jane Adler always seem to be out of breath. Like I don't kknow if it's because she's under a lot of stress, or excitement, or if there is a breathing issue. But everyone knows I have breathing issues, like if I see someone take a deep breath, I have to take a deep breath and sometimes I have to take deep breaths to make sure I still can... I digress.
The point is... I just don't know how to handle characters that are always out of breath. I feel like I have anxiety. You just want to shout "STOP. BREATHE. Now go..."
In other news, I teared up during the season finale of Awkward. Talk about your awkward... I feel completely embarrassed by that.
Take a deep breath and count to 10,

BIRTHDAY MONTH!
Oh yeah baby! The best 2 months are ahead. September -- Husker football, my birthday, great weather. October -- more Husker football, continuous great weather, Branson camping and Halloween. Not to mention, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Octoberfest, Apple Cider. Oh gosh, I could go on.
Right now I currently am undergoing a toothache, or jaw ache of some sort. And it's really getting to me. I think I might have to go get some oragel or whatever that stuff is.
I think my biggest fear is that it is a tooth issue and I am going to have to get it pulled or something like that. And then I fear that I am going to lose all of my teeth. Like they're all going to fall out. It's probably because I haven't been to a dentist in years, but now I don't want to go due to anxiety that they're going to be like -- your mouth is a mess and we're taking out all of your teeth. EEK!
I'm watching Made right now. The Made coach is super hot. And that's kind of the only reason why I'm watching the episode. That's sad.
Alright I can't even think clearly right now, I need to look up solutions for this tooth issue.

Since I wasn't able to watch the VMAs with my usual crowd ... and by usual crowd I mean of course my friends that allow me to make comments throughout the whole thing -- I will instead do it on here! Suck it up, if you don't want to read them, move along.
1) Lady Gaga is a lot shorter than I thought, amazing what heels will do
2) 'Lil Wayne -- stop skateboarding - you're black' HAHAHAHA classic.
3) I still think Jonah Hill is funny and furthermore, I'd still be all over that. Except now he's in shape and so would 10 million other girls -- but just a heads up Jonah -- I woulda been on that pre lifestyle change -- jusss sayin.
4) Niki Minaj -- What in the...
5) Is Jessie J in a cast? And is it bedazzled?
6) Miley -- What is that dress? You look 75. In 1940. And not in the good way.
7) Beavis and Butthead's return will be interesting....do you think they'll modernize it?
8) Jessie J looks like Ginnifer Goodwin -- no seriously -- to the point that I think they're the same person.
9) Ugh Nirvana mentions -- 2 so far, 'nuff said.
10) Chris Brown < Peter Pan
11) "He's my boy" - Justin Bieber about Chris Brown ... watch out Selena Gomez...
12) Gaga, Britney, Beyonce all at once? Oh goodness almost can't even handle it.
13) Yep, still love Beyonce even IF I am not a huge fan of the latest album.
14) Ugh another one.
15) WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE!?! I blame Dan and Jeff for lacking in keeping me updated on music that I am COMPLETELY boggled as to who these new artists are. With the exception of Wiz Khalifa (ih) and Foster the People.
16) I LOVE that Lady Gaga didn't break character. Having once dressed in drag myself, it's a blast. Haha so awesome.
Wellp that's all I got because I didn't remember to record it beyond scheduled time so it cut off. Blast it! Oh well. Pretty decent I must say.

If You're Sleeping, Are You Dreaming
I think the one thingwe take for granted in the entire world more than anything else is memories. We have so many memories and we don't even remember all of them. Right now I am listening to a song that came up on my iTunes and I can tell you exactly why I have this song. A boyfriend of the past once posted the lyrics to this entire song to me, shortly after that it was on the radio as my mother dropped me off at driver's ed which I hated because I didn't know anyone, but hearing this song on the radio and associating it with my then boyfriend meant all the world to me.
And now that I hear this song a good....8 years? later? Maybe more... I can still recall all of that. I can still remember the exact moment that I saw those lyrics for me. I knew then and there he would be my first love. He was and still is. We are good friends now and I thank the Lord every day that we were able to realize we weren't meant for each other at that time and were able to be great friends out of the whole experience. After all, high school relationships are sooooo overrated (ha. Haha.) But at the same time, that kid that for his own privacy I will remain nameless, and I were destined to be in each other's lives forever, we were just too young to understand that it didn't have to include sex.
There's no real moral, and I am sure I will bring up this subject time and time again because it boggles my mind every time how much we dismiss our memories when honestly, they are sooo powerful. a scent, a smell, a color, a show, a movie, or some simple song lyrics can change your mood instantly.
Did I mention this same song also got me through countless days of work as a strawberry picker?!
Someday Blue October, I will call YOU,

Whore-ible Me.
I left this quaint little blog space of mine for tumblr.com because someone convinced me it would be better. I won't say who... but if you ask me, I probably will.
Well I tried it out and I fiddled around with it and tried it out and guess what? It didn't fit. So I came crawling back, tail in between my legs.
So I'm back, blogspotters and I am definitely going to make more of an effort to hang around. Truth being, because I miss it. And also because very soon I am going to assume I will need a forum to analyze and examine my life to an obsolete space so I don't feel like I am burdening someone.
On a different note - I think my favorite thing about watching television shows is trying to figure out which character I most represent. Right now I am engulfed in Sex and the City and I can't decide if I am more Carrie or Miranda. I guess I could just chalk it up to a little bit of both but that's a little lame. I know I'm not Charlotte and I hope I'm not Samantha... I don't have the greatest track record but that came under completely different circumstances than Ms. Jones. I would say I lean more toward Carrie, but there's always that voice that's like "EVERYONE wants to be Carrie, but no one is" but I think I might really be. I can't really explain why. I guess if you have opinions you can definitely chime in at any time.
I wasn't really going anywhere with that. I'm really just trying not to fall asleep. I guess in that regard, I am slightly delirious.
Well glad to be back, more to come I'm sure.
That title... had more to it, but then again I didn't really want to delve into any of that.
But I'll give you one guess,
Em

Hiatus
A hiatus from television is interesting. I mean all "oh my gosh this is a show?" aside, commercials become EXTREMELY fascinating again.
I know when I set out to write this about 5 hours ago, I had 2 specific commercials in mind. However, as time passed, I can only remember the one and in turn gained another one. So here we go and maybe through rambling processes I will remember the missing link!
One: Kleenex Hand Towels.
I don't know how I am supposed to feel. I mean on one end I am getting mind raped about recycling and going green. I get the going green lecture, I feel, so many times a day I'm turning green. (That was a... really lame attempt at saying it's making me sick) and here is a product that discourages the use of normal everyday hand towels and is encouraging throw away towels. Like... I thought everybody threw huge hissy fits about hand towels in public restrooms because it's a paper waste and instead wanted us to move to air dryers. Now here we are creating the disposable hand towel for our HOMES?! Soooo instead of simply changing and washing our cloth towels, they want us to use basically...paper towels. In our bathrooms. AND THAT'S another thing! They're paper towels. They are freaking paper towels. Just put some paper towels in the bathroom you crazy, why are you paying 3 extra dollars for what is baaaasically a paper towel?!?! Alright but I digress. So you may be wondering, as I was how are they marketing this environmental unfriendly product? They hit you with the GERM fear. "oh gosh look at how many germs this cloth towel collects, who KNOWS what people are using that towel for and you are using it to dry your CLEAN hands? Your husband whacked off into them literally ten minutes ago. That's not embroidery that you're feeling, hun. So buy our disposable towels... so you can stay germ free." Like... how can you win? Who can win here? Too crazy.... Now... how does this get crazier? So they got you all hopped up on the germ thing. Ok so in the commercial, if you care to pay attention, and I do because I sat on my pancake ass and watched Lifetime all day because old episodes of Grey's Anatomy were playing. Anyways, the chick... wipes her hands and then wipes the counter.... ? I mean I don't exactly see there being extreme germ transfers because I guess your hands are clean so you aren't bringing any harm to the counter, but at the same time, we still hit air dryers with the back of our hands...? So you advertise this product to be a multi-one-time-use towel and yet you show the woman using it for multiple things. I don't get it. AND on top of it, two kids use one of them to dry their wet SAINT BERNARD. Not like a little friggin chihuahua. A huge mofo Saint Bernard. Now I am no expert by any means, but damnit I'm close and Kleenex, you ain't no Brawny. Your tissues can't even compare to Puffs' kick ASS lotion formula. So get real, just a little bit, please.
The other commerical I still can't remember and I might reblog it if I ever come across it again. Which I'm sure I will.
The other OTHER commercial was the Trojan Fire and Ice. but after my dissection of Kleenex hand towels, it just doesn't seem to be worth it. Basically the commercials are awful. They're cheesy and they don't really make you feel any more comfortable about condoms or buying condoms or buying specialty condoms on top of that. But there was one where they call the condom "blows your hair back" or... something and the couple turn and sure enough their hair is sticking straight out. Not going to lie, it was hilarious. However, you, Trojan, still don't make the condom any less uncomfortable to purchase. But I appreciate your effort. Maybe you could hook up with the Axe commercial guys, because that's just pure genius sometimes.
YES I KNEW it! I KNEW if I rambled long enough I'd remember the other one. Dannon Activa yogurt. HAHA ok. So Jamie Lee is prancing around some park with an Activa Yogurt cart... if you will. And approaches this couple. Attractive-ish woman, and a bigger semi ok looking guy. And she's like "HEY! Eat this delicious yogurt" and they're like alright we've been walking around we could use some yogurt. So they take the yogurt and the woman says "Wait a minute... isn't this the yogurt that..." And JLC cuts her off and is all "HELPS with your digestive system?! YES." The husband then promptly shoves the yogurt back and says "Ohhhhh noooo thank you" And JLC is all "nonono this is different this stuff tastes good!"
--- insert my opinion--- Jamie Lee... that homeboy did NOT push back the yogurt because he feared it tasted awful. I am 99% sure the push back was because SOMEBODY doesn't need that extra oomf in their digestive system. SOMEBODY doesn't want to be in the little boy's room all day, mmkay? And you can totally tell! He's eating it, not even swallowing the yogurt, it is still in his mouth and he's like "oh you're right this does taste good" READ: "oh I am not going to swallow this, that was not my issue with it"
And yes I realize it's a commercial and it's not real, but it still bothers me.
Then again, there is little that does NOT bother me.

Em
