Olaf the Troll ,'Showtime'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Interview is the 13th. I don't know when they'll make their decision.
But I have great teeth, cute hair and newly groomed eyebrows. And! Since I got the bonus, I am totally going to splurge on a manicure, pedicure and facial.
How many days out should I schedule the facial? I want to make sure my skin is all calm for the 13th.
I'm the wrong person to go to for skin care advice.
I still have papers to write.
Ugh.
I need to get off the internet, but i'm obsessing over rose bowl tickets. My mom really thinks my Dad would like them for xmas. Except, individual tix through a broker cost, at minimum ~$800 each. I have bid $550 on two endzone tickets but I'm sure I'll be outbid.
And I'm kicking myself because if I had checked this yesterday, I'd have found out that the limited Pasadena-resident tickets went on sale today and I could have asked my friend S to go and try to get them for me.
the real ish that makes it an even more bitter pill to swallow is that it is USC/Texas, two schools that have alums with more money than sense and two football obsessed schools.
Ugh. x 2.
I could ask my friend who is married to the godfather of the athletic director at USC's twin children. But that's pretty weird and I hate asking for favors like that. And I'm not even really sure if my dad wants to go because he made indifferent noises.
ugh. x3
eta I think my Dad would like to go. But I think he made indifferent noises because he knew the impossibility of being able to go.
I am totally going to splurge on a manicure, pedicure and facial.Yay! I would do it pretty soon, just to make sure.
Damn. We routinely pay up to $200/person for Packer tix, but that's more than I could handle.
Brenda, the face value of Rose Bowl tickets are $175.
$250 will get you into the hospitality tent though.
Kat, doesn't JPL have Rosebowl tix?
Nope. Definitely not the game and not to the parade this year, either.
I love my Dad. I just don't think I want to spend $800+ for a ticket for him to a goddamn football game where teams he doesn't even care about are playing.
Yeah, that's a toughie. If it was his team, whatever that is, it would be one thing. But to go just for the Rosebowl and not for a particular team that you love or hate - I dunno. Maybe that's best saved for another year.
The only sporting event I can fathom being worth $800 to attend would involve Ben Cohen celebrating victory by jumping into the stands... and my arms.
The chipped tooth freakout wasn't enough to do it the other week, but Jake Gyllenhaal has just pissed away any respect I had for him in a current Details interview by claiming that the Jack Twist character is straight.
Yeah, just like lots of straight guys who fall in love with another man, conduct a two-decade illicit affair, and while away the time in between meetings with male prostitutes in Mexico.
