Coincidence...I THINK NOT! *Guest Edition*

My friend Tabitha (Hi Tabitha!) just told me about her recent coincidental experience which I was partially involved in.
Pull up a chair, grab some warm cocoa and let me tell you the story...

It was just this past Saturday after a long night of partying (kind of a lame party actually) when I pulled out my laptop to browse all the hilarious videos on YouTube.
Of course Christian Bale and his fuck-ridden rant came up and my friends and I proceeded to watch several versions...
Tabitha had never heard of Christian Bale before (he played Batman Tabitha...) but when she got home and turned on her TV she just so happened to come across an episode of E! True Hollywood Story, and who was the celebrity on tonight's episode...CHRISTIAN BALE!

Creepy, I know...

J&K+8=<3





I <3 Jon and Kate Plus 8.
If you've never seen it, go check it out right now.
The show is about Jon and Kate and their 8 children (a set of twins and a set of sextuplets)
It's been pretty cool to watch the kids grow up and I really hope this show is on for a long time so I can see them when they're older, but there's been one thing I've been worried about...
Kate is a total bitch and Jon just seems to be passive about the whole thing.
I've often wondered if they could handle both the children and each other.
In the episode I'm watching now, it seems like Kate could literally go insane any day now.

I just saw a preview for the season finale and it showed a clip of Jon and Kate talking about how they've been having trouble and that they're trying to work on things.
I don't know if it's just a clever bit of editing to make people tune in or if they're actually having martial issues or if it's just something else, but I'm definitely going to check it out.

Coincidence...I THINK NOT!




Oh man, this is ridiculous.
I was watching Wheel of Fortune while cleaning up my room and one of the final puzzles was "Pasta Primavera."

Just about an hour later here I am still cleaning up and I switched the channel to the Food Network, which I usually only watch for "Ace of Cakes" which is an amazing show about this company in Baltimore that make AMAZING cakes!
Anyways...chef Jamie Oliver's show was on and I wasn't really paying attention until a commercial came on advertising "Europe's Best" frozen food and they just happen to mention "Pasta Primavera."

I have no clue what Pasta Primavera is, but to hear it twice in under an hour on two completely different channels amazes me.

Songs To Wear Pants To

Completely by accident I stumbled upon this piece of internet glory.
It's a site called Songs To Wear Pants To. Andrew (the creator) will take a request for a song and turn it into musical gold. He does free songs or you can pay him to create something more specific. His service has been used for weddings, birthdays, movie scores, marriage proposals, personal theme songs, and radio jingles.
The creator explains how he came up with the idea:
"A combination of unemployment and the internet. The name "Songs To Wear Pants To" is from a CD I made when I was 17. "

He's sort of like a more modern day Weird Al.
One of his most recent songs requests is:
"What would it sound like if a rapping robot was really nervous about asking a girl out?"
You can check out what that sounds like here

He also has songs about a glass toaster, zombies, bjork, and a Celtic techno burrito...

:)

I'm super excited this week because I get to meet Tedde Moore. That name might not sound familiar, but the character she played might be.
Ms. Moore played Ralphie's teacher in the classic 1983 holiday film "A Christmas Story."

Tedde Moore is giving our acting class a lecture on stagecraft/using props properly (no pun intended)...
I can't wait to meet her and I'll be sure to get a picture with her if I can!

Life's a beach...

Today I fly out to Florida for a little vacation, which I really need after a stressful week of school and work. I'll make sure to take lots of pics and perhaps there could even be a video of the trip!
