That oreo pie grosses me out.  It's basically a pizza crust with crushed oreos on it covered with fake icing.  They don't even try to make it look like a real dessert.
     Grey's started again.  I can admit that it's overrated and was a lot better in the first two seasons, but I still got excited.   It features women doctors who are interesting and flawed, it's multiracial, and  it gets one thing right: the constant amazement at how strange and interesting patients can be.  Silly Meredith is so mean to her sister.  Only children don't know what they're missing.  Boyfriends come and go, but sisters are forever.  And why is McSteamy suddenly a font of wisdom?  Advice from a man-whore doesn't count for much in my book.  I'm sick of this whole George and Izzie thing.  I'm against it, in fact.  I liked them so much better as friends.  In fact, I'm sick of George.  We don't need him anymore.
     I'm not liking current fashion trends.  Sweaters these days are hideous.  I'm a sweater-loving woman, too: I love feeling cuddly and I can't resist a man in a nice sweater.  Plus, I really can't do the wide leg pants.  I'm short and stout as it is.  I don't know if "equilateral triangle" is really a good fashion silhouette for anyone.
     I really liked Across the Universe.  It was a loving tribute to the Beatles.  All of the circus stuff was superfluous and annoying, but I guess one can't bypass the entire "Sgt. Pepper" album when one is making a Beatles movie.  I especially liked the little touches, such as contrasting the happy 50s world with the grungy, Cavern Club/Hamburg world in one song.  The main character looked uncannily like Paul McCartney.  I got misty-eyed when they mimicked the Rooftop gig and sang "Don't Let Me Down," which might be my favorite Beatles song of all time.  I think that Lucy was supposed to die, but the director was forced to put in a happier ending.  Bono has a good American accent!  It was so funny when Joe Cocker showed up and I had to wonder, "Is that Joe Cocker or a hobo who sings like Joe Cocker?"  It could have been either!
     Family Guy left me disturbed.  They actually showed Brian (the dog) making out with a human woman and then in bed with her.  I got the same feeling that I used to get when I watched Alvin and the Chipmunks when I was younger and they were romancing human girls.  They're giant rodents!  Sure, they can sing, but this is disgusting!  I'm just not into interspecies dating, even if it's just in a cartoon.
     Heroes is back, too.   I missed the first episode and had to watch it online.  My connection was so slow that it was a series of still photographs, like watching a flipbook for an hour.  It proves that I love that show, because I watched the entire hour-long flipbook!
     Beauty and the Geek is back as well.  I like the addition of the female geek, but the male beauty is entirely disappointing.  Am I alone in the belief that men can definitely overpluck their eyebrows and that it can look very disturbing?  I didn't even watch the Pickup artist, but by the end, all of the men were shining with overscrubbing and had thin, perfect eyebrows.  I don't like unkempt slobs, but I don't like metrosexual guys, either.  There has to be a happy medium.  I hope the female geek hooks up with a male geek.  Maybe we should stick to our own.  :)  I remember going to the last Star Wars movie with a bunch of My Stupid Ex-Roommate's friends (all guys).  One of them said that the only way a girl would have gone to a Star Wars movie was if she was dragged by a date (I was with a male friend at the time, but it was certainly not a date).  Now, I'm not a hardcore Star Wars fan, but I enjoy the first movies.  I just have to say this: we female nerds exist.  Maybe we're more rare, but we exist!  We live!  Some of us are the ever-living!
     Lebron was fantastic on SNL.  Athletes are the WORST on that show.  Peyton Manning was pretty good, too (sometime last year?).
     I like a couple of new shows, but I'm not crazy about anything like I was about Heroes.  Bionic Woman may be interesting and fun (although another chick-kicking-ass show, Alias, got boring after a while).  I like Chuck, but I can't see how they can stretch it out for more then a few seasons (Chuck is, by the way, despite the awful hair, the kind of cute nerd guy that I'd love to date).  Pushing Daisies was interesting as well (sort of like a weekly Amelie).  I've been watching so much TV lately that I've neglected movies.  I really don't need any more shows to add!!!  The Office is now an hour long (still the funniest show on TV).  America's Next Top Model is off to a slow start.  I eagerly anticipate the makeover episode (for "Geek" as well)!  One of the nurses in the NICU commented that I was pale and needed some lipstick or something.  She was joking and I joked back that I thought the one place I could be accepted as myself was the NICU, surrounded by female nurses and babies in cubes!  Then I admitted that I could use a makeover.  I really could!
     I bought some wax candy recently.  Remember those sticks of syrup encased in wax?  It was really strange and hard to eat.  Maybe you have to be a kid to enjoy eating wax.  I just can't do it anymore.
      Amy took me out to a little Japanese restaurant before my birthday.  I used the bathroom and discovered one of those Japanese smart toilets.  It had a seat warmer!  It also had a built in bidet.  I have never used one of those before and thought, "What the hell, you're only 26 once."  Since I didn't make a poop, I chose the "front" cleaning button.  A stream of water shot up my butt crack (gluteal cleft) and I shouted, "Whoooo!" in surprise.  I don't think anybody heard me.  I'm don't think I'll try a bidet ever again...or will I?
     Keira could stand to gain a few, but I must say this: she is an inspiration to flat-chested women everywhere.  If one of us can inspire that kind of masculine fanaticism, why, there's nothing we can't do!!!
     I'm going to take a controversial stand: I HATE pink highlighters!  I think they're too dark!  They "dark-light" instead of doing their job!  I believe in the classic yellow highlighter and I refuse to use any other!
     Commercial Review: I've enjoyed a couple of commercials lately.  I really like the Levis commercial where each time the couple disrobes, they're dressed in a different era's clothes.  I also like the office survivor commercials.  However, that t-mobile commercial where a bunch of ruffians texts to each other and then tear up a grocery store is just plain socially irresponsible.  Who's going to clean up that mess?  Damn kids (you can't see me now, but I'm waving a rake and standing on my lawn right now)!
