I just wrote No Reservations/ True Blood...I thought I would be set upon by Bourdainians.
Oh, cool, erika! I admit that one of the stories I loved best from this year's Yuletide was that "No Reservations Narnia" story. So fun.
I shouldn't be as uncomfortable about that kind of RPF as I am, because something like "No Reservations" or "Dirty Jobs" is probably just as constructed a product as any scripted show. I just like to stay a long way from the slippery slope to pundit!slash. Not my beautiful cake and all that.
Super-late, but re: CCommunity hilarity:
That was pretty sweet.
That's the kind of thing I fully expect Juliana and I will be cracking ourselves up with some night in North Beach (or Vegas), while M and others look at us and wonder how the hell much we've had to drink.
That moment made me laugh so hard I cried. Literally. It's very hard to keep myself from randomly doing that at the bar (where my manager and a whole bunch of other people are fans of the show), because I don't think the customers would quite Get It.
Also, I am a stress non-eater, but I crave sugar (preferably in Sour Patch Kid form) like woah when I'm sleep-deprived. Which is now, since I'm working 65 hours/week. Grrr.
Since J got the leg clot last week, I have been eating Everything On Earth PLUS I started biting my nails again. I wanted to look fab when I went to NYC to visit my friends I haven't seen in 5 years, but I guess they are going to have to appreciate my inner beauty.
I don't know exactly what the question is, but Addison DeWit from All About Eve?
Also, for this job, one interview with two people, a day long series of interviews from 9 am to 4:30 with 11 people, and then they brought me in again to meet with the head of the office. At least by that third one I thought they wouldn't waste so much time on a candidate they weren't interested in.
Cool: Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs testified before the Senate on the importance of skilled trades: [link]
Oh my god, marry me right now, Mike Rowe.
A Dean Winchester quote always comes to mind at this juncture: "Cuz you know - they’re just donuts. Not love." Of course, he was trying to get his ass beat, and it worked.
I stress don't eat. I couldn't finish the brownie. I scraped off the icing and everything, but it's just not happening. Hopefully I eat something later today.
ita--have some protein RIGHT NOW. Even if it's a power bar or something. You have to have some nutrition to fight off infection.
Cheese! Cheese is protein. Also BACON.
Bacon would rock. I have a Tiger's Milk bar in my desk drawer, but I really can't handle the sugar right now.
