Half-Assed Again Live-ish Blogging The Search for the Next Pussycat Doll: The Series Finale

(It may not actually be the series finale, but I can’t fathom how or why the producers would do another season.)
(Also, we’re doing this at 10 p.m., not 9 p.m. when the show originally aired, because I wanted to go to to pool first.)
10:00: For a brief moment, I thought it didn’t TiVo. I felt [...]

Half-Ass Live Blogging The Search for the Next Pussycat Doll

So, we have no Internet. This is on top of the dishwasher being broke-broke, and the DVR being nine kinds of screwed up, all because of a lovely power outage last night. (Side note: It gets real cold real fast when you don’t have power.)
9:04: There are four Pussykittens left. Chelsea is getting still getting [...]

Live-Ish Blogging: The Search for the Next Pussycat Doll (Yes, This Is What I’m Doing With My Saturday Night)

OK so we aren’t actually live blogging this, but has anyone actually seen the latest episode (or any episode) of this show? Didn’t think so. Scott’s here tonight, and will not be allowed to leave to meet his friends until he submits his final Like count.
Here we go.
9:00: There’s some crying about last week’s elimination. [...]

Me, Elsewhere

Sometimes I write things in other places, with my actual real name attached and stuff (which was partly the reason I restarted this site, on the up-and-up honest-to-Betsy with my real name and such — and also partly not the reason at all.) So, anyway, here are a few of those things.
IFLTS: Regina Spektor, ‘Fidelity’ [...]

In News That Will Disappoint … No One

The Search for the Next Pussycat Doll will not be live blogged tonight. However, it’s not like it matters. I’ll live blog it at another point in time this week, probably Thursday.
Seriously, try to control yourself. Tears are unbecoming at your age.

Live Blogging: The Search for the Next Pussycat Doll (It’s OK, I Can’t Believe I’m Doing It Again, Either)

8:58 p.m.: Pringles: Check. Slice of cheese: Check. Glass of wine: Check. Tivo ready: Check. I’m good to go. Unfortunately Scott has “hockey” again (I think he might be making it up), so no official “like” count again for tonight’s episode.
9:00: Here we go!
9:01: Melissa S. is getting kicked off tonight. I’m calling it during [...]

The Joys of Adulthood

Me: I’m thinking about getting a Mini-Cooper as a 30th birthday present to myself, and I wanted to get your input on one quick financial thing.
Dad: Mini-Coopers have terrible safety ratings.
Me: Actually, I think the newer models -
Dad: No. They’re no good. You’re not getting one. I’m the Dad, and I’ve spoken. It’s final.
Me: …

It’s All Fun and Games Until …

Tonight I marched around our condo chanting, ‘No Roger, no Rerun, no rent!’ and berating Scott for having no clue what I was talking about, until I stubbed my toe, and now I’m laying in bed pouting. It still hurts!
Why do my stories always end with someone getting hurt, and in [...]
