basically my favorite time of the week is when AUSIELLO from entertainment weekly, posts his weekly spoilers on the website. at some point we back in 2008, when he was still at tv guide and i would skip my way to work an anticipation on wednesday mornings, smiling as i daydreamed about the latest hirings and firings, and what drama those crazy kids at GREYS were up to (this was back when we still cared about greys...today...BARF...but of course i still watch...i just don't...CARE...okay i just don't care AS MUCH) - he disappeared. with no explanation. i didn't understand why this little piece of heaven had been taken away from me. but i was also consumed by you know, packing up my life and moving across the country and so i simply sulked, felt wronged and and took it completely personally.
but fear not. as i began to settle into life in san francisco, with ample hours to scour the internet, i became reinvigorated. i would find my friend MICHAEL AUSIELLO (and yes, he's now totally my friend on facebook too!) and i would ask him to spoil the ending...please! turns out, dude wasn't hard to find. he was just working for the man (ie EW)...aren't we all? he now does his spoiling on THURSDAY mornings, which makes me confused but at he same time, is a nice way to begin to wrap up my week.
i use his post as a reward. it's currently open on my tabs, but i'm saving it until i've checked things off my to do list (blog...check! SCORE!). no, i don't understand his obsession with the smurfs (growing up, my dad wouldn't let me watch the smurfs OR strawberry shortcake because in his opinion they were just too stupid...yet i still ended up being OBSESSED with the BACHELOR and all things REAL HOUSEWIVES so really he should have just let me be like everyone else...oh yeah, and play on a soccer team too...i hold no grudges), or snapple. but he's got all the secrets and so i love him. a lot.
as a side note, NBC is not loading on my tv. which is fine for now because it's 9am and i can't stand the 3rd hour of the TODAY SHOW (now 7am, that's another story). but i'm already anticipating that it won't work come 9pm when my dvr is set to record THE OFFICE. yes, i always assume the worst.
oh, and i'm making a roast chicken tonight. it's my first time. well, my first time since i was about 10 and scarred for life when i had to reach inside and pull out the innards. that's just nasty. but grandma told me that the kosher kind have the innards already removed. which sounds like a very good thing. i'll let you know how all that goes.
and one more thing...the new blog is just about ready. it's been a labor of love - mostly for ABN. he comes home after a long day and just goes at it. i have a hard time with change but i keep reminding myself its a good thing - and it is. i'm also updating my blog roll! stay tuned....
