See, that's why you're a writer and I'm not. I wrote a load of bollocks.

And just like that, Kristen made my enjoyment of the holiday season complete with the mental image of Jay Leno crying like a baby.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I knew about Worldwide Pants, how long has there been a Worldwide Trousers?
I am so out of the loop...

It felt kind of mean of me, what with it being the holidays and all, to take pleasure in someone else's pain. But with Matt for company...hahahaha!!!
I don't know what it is about Jay. I liked him when he started. I think he's funny and I don't really know, but he seems like a decent enough person. I think it may be the hot pink backdrop. I am so petty.

Thanks! Maybe I can get a job on Letterman. Dave, call me!

I assume it's some kind of dba thing since everything they've produced always says "Worldwide Pants."
I don't know what it is about Jay. I liked him when he started. I think he's funny and I don't really know, but he seems like a decent enough person.
For me, it was the Late Shift. Bill Carter's account of how the Carson Debacle went down really paints Leno as a nice guy but a weak one, who'd rather turn a blind eye than face reality.
In shopping news, I bought socks. And a jacket that I started to regret buying before I even got out of the mall's garage.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
For me, it was the Late Shift.That was kinda painful for me to watch. Several times. I wanted to like them all so much more than I did after that.
Return the jacket.

I wanted to like them all so much more than I did after that.
Oddly, the movie version almost made me like Mike Ovitz.
I really do like the jacket. It's just a very light color so I'm worried about keeping it clean. I'm trying to rationalize the purchase by reminding myself that whatever I bought today will probably not fit me in two months anyway.
Funny strike related moment: I was deciding between two jackets and had to put one of them back. Because it was red. I might never want to wear that color again.

Oddly, the movie version almost made me like Mike Ovitz.Cause he was Treat Williams. He's likable. (I totally had to check with IMDB before I posted that. I was afraid I was misremembering.)
Because it was red. I might never want to wear that color again.I apologize for laughing.

Monique, you'd better book your ticket fast. I have two HUGE 30 gallon trash bags filled with the clothes that no longer fit me. And they ain't staying in the house for long.
ETA: Actually, I should ship you some stuff. You're the only person I know who's tall enough to wear a lot of these clothes.
I apologize for laughing.
No apologies needed. I found it funny myself.
