Acting crabby over Stephen May 1, 2008
Posted by brandy in Annie Lebowitz is so jealous, I want to make Jim Halpert a mix tape, Me & the Bard, and now you might know everything, brookem is awesome!, confession of the day, games we play, hello universe? I love you, it happened this week, it makes sense to me, love or something like it, men, sigh. i've made a tag for THE HILLS..trackback
Secret Guilty Confession: You know those posts where people show off the contents of their handbag? I love those. Almost as much as I love Stephen Colletti after this weeks episode of The Hills (which had me singing like Sebastian the crab from The Little Mermaid “kiss the girl! kiss the girl!). Because I’m cool like that.
Hmm. I love how I just divulged my Colletti crush and THAT wasn’t my guilty confession.
As many of you know, I attended the wedding with the ice sculpture that required me to recite a sonnet last week. I have also recently figured out how to put my camera pictures on my computer (shhh! I know, I know it’s so EASY! And everybody DOES IT! But I was busy teaching children how to read and who Barack Obama was to learn any sooner), so naturally, I took a picture of what my bag looked like that I packed for the wedding. Because who doesn’t need a photo of that?
Prepared to be amazed:
In regards to the water bottle now being called ‘the cancer bottle’ THIS IS SERIOUS. I’m not sure what’s the dealio with the rest of the world, but the Canadian government recently put one of the chemicals that makes the plastic for many waterbottles on a danger list. All waterbottles from Naglene, Lululemon, etc got pulled off Canadian shelves and now everyone here is switching to metal water bottles. To know if your bottle was made with the harmful chemical, check the little recycling label and see if the number “7″ is in it. If it is, it’s made with BPA (aka “the bad one”).
Oh, and before I forget (hi, could this post be anymore random?) I’ve fallen back in love with Thursday night television. I even watched an entire episode of Grey’s Anatomy without wanting to give Meredith an ovary punch. Which? Is definite progress.
As for the real reason you are all here? The winner of The George Clooney contest was none other than Brookem. I know. You think I cheated but I promise- I did not. But, I’ll go all grade 2 school marm on you and say after reading all the nice things people have done for each of you, aren’t we all winners?
And if you haven’t choked on all that cheese, I wish you a wonderful Friday
ok first the naglene bottles sick thing is making me mad!!! i am having serious issues with throwing mine away. i LOVE my bottle, i drink from it everyday, it is from my college. i don’t wanna give it up! i know, i have to though.
second, i love the little mermaid reference!!!! : )
FYI those Nalgenes only leach chemicals into your water if you let them heat up over and over again (which everyone does, I am constantly leaving mine in my car…
but the opaque white old school Nalgenes are safe.
And how great was Grey’s when Sloan got on the elevator… just sayin’
I second the Grey’s thing. Lately the only reason I’ve been watching it is to find out if its still bad. Tonight I actually didn’t want to kill Izzy, George, or Meredith. And I loved the elevator scene!
Obsessed. With. You.
And with this post. And the pic.
I just figured out how to put camera phone pics on my computer, too, and am now doing it constantly.
I totally missed The Hills on Monday. And now I’m convinced my water bottle is going to kill me.
Nice going Brandy
Ok, yeah for a good episode of Grey’s. Last week was weak…but tonight was good. Yeah for renewed interest in Thursday night tv!
I’ll tell you something my gal- I have had a post saved in my “drafts” folder for a YEAR with this same exact picture of my purse contents. Not sure why I never posted it. Methinks I’ll need to do an updated version one of these days as my purse at the time was very unseasonable to post now.
PS- Our contents are pretty much the same exact thing. The magazine, the water bottle, the ear plugs?!
You know my thoughts on Stephen (I like to say his name like “Steve-aaahhhn” to mimic Krisitin Cavaliari’s old way of saying it. Tell me you don’t remember THAT.).
And holy hell, I won?!!?! I am totally stoked! Woot woot.
Oh, do we agree that it’s time Meredith Grey gets herself a new HOH style? Yeah, enough with the chunky whisps of bangs IN YOUR FACE in a hospital setting. It’s very a-unflattering, and b- inappropriate for her profession.
Also, I dig the guy who had the brain tumor. I bet you did too.
Yeah, that BPA stuff is not joke. I just recently did a bit of investigation into the use of BPA in baby bottles and sippy cups. Scary shit.. and the US hasn’t taken that stuff off the shelves yet. *sigh* Cancer bottle indeed!
Steeephen!
This guy at work just told me about my cancer bottle and told me to order a Klean Kanteen. For now I’m just using disposable. We’re all going to get cancer somehow!
I did a ‘contents of my handbag’ post on March 31st. It’s chocka’s (full) of stuff that I don’t really need every moment of every day, but I carry it all around - just in case!
Like you, I also find the contents of other’s bags totally intriguing.
And as for the ‘cancer bottle - we are still in the dark in Australia about this one. Must check it out. Hope you don’t mind, but I might refer to it in a future post too. Good info to share around.
Cheers!
I was like the last person in the world to get a Nalgene bottle and now that I have it, I’m not giving it up. Bite me cancer causing plastics. We are all going to die anyway, why not enjoy our time here with our Nalgene.
The picture of inside your bag rules. Those Welch’s things? Mmmmmmm!
I’m also glad that you’re coming back around to Thursday night TV. The Office was off the hook last night. As was 30 Rock. Unfortunately, I’ve never been able to get into Grey’s…I’ve watched a couple of episodes but that chick drives me batty and I continuously want to punch her right in the mouth. Although, and ovary punch would get my point across, too. Damn, I hate that chick.
wasn’t that an awesome episode of grey’s last night? love it.
and plastic=the devil.
also styrofoam.
GO GREEN!
I just happen to be drinking out of my #7 Nalgene right now…Seeing as I’ve been drinking out of this bottle for the past, um, 6 years I’m pretty sure the damage is done
I really liked last night’s ep of Grey’s and it looks like the writers are going back to what made the show worth watching.
Best part? McDreamy, McSteamy, Addy, Meredith AND Rose in the elevator.
I damn near fell out of my bed from laughing.
Oh, I tagged you for a meme also. Sorry if you’re not in the mood or have done it recently. At least you got a link from it!
Ear plug fan here! Did I tell you that Ginger ate an ear plug the other day - which translated into ear plug coming out the other end. That was some strange looking poop. Oh and good morning!
I love you. The fact that you carry trashy mags in your bag (as do I) along with earplugs & fruit snacks makes you pretty swell in my book. Oh Stephen, it pains me to watch those two together - would they just get together or what? I am still holding out hope! As for Grey’s last night -I was thinking I hope this episode doesn’t dissapoint me, and it didn’t. I loved the scene at the end where Addision asked Callie “are you speaking the vagina monologues?” I have a feeling, things are going to get pretty interesting between Callie, Hahn & maybe Mark. Can’t wait!
Awww, I adore Brookem (even got to meet the real life version of her!). She’s definitely worthy of winning a pay it forward contest. She could use as much bloggylove as possible!
i love stephen too. why was it awkward. why can’t they just kiss, get married, and live happily ever after? or if that doesn’t work out, he can call me…
Uhhh. Yes, mine has a 7. GAH.
I’m so happy you do the warm water thing, it’s good to know I’m not alone! Also..i LOVE wedding cake, I think it’s my favorite food.
Just realized that I’ve commented on this post 3 times. wow. lucky you
You carry a purse in your purse? (Must be a woman thing.) And an economy size pack of earplugs? (Must be a Canadian thing.)
Oddly enough, though, aside from those two things, the inside of your purse looks a lot like mine.
Seriously, this water bottle business is disturbing. I use mine ALL THE TIME.
CRAP! I was drinking out of my water bottle while reading this and it has a number “7″…..AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! At the rate we’re all going, I think the only way I may avoid cancer is to hide under a rock and survive on organic leafy greens.
Also, I too heart Stephen and am so glad he’s not with that Hayden Pana-what’s-her-name chick anymore. But it doesn’t look like there’ll be any rekindling between LC and him. Sigh.
the bad plastics are 4,6, and 7
(and they MIGHT be bad, and only for children and women of childbearing age)
Oh Stephen, Stephen, he was such a heart breaker in his Laguna days.
I would like to see a snapshot of all the shoes in your closet. I think that might be even more fun than the purse contents!
I hated the latest episode of Grey’s. Everything has become so darn obvious. I am not at all surprised that Dr. Hahn is gay.
okay, you might be my new best friend….first, welch’s fruit snacks-my all time fav. i can eat, like a whole box in one sitting. magazines-i am an official junkie….nalgene water bottle-eh.
greys-its about damn time. i was beginning to hate meredith. i love the ovary punch…. and the end of the episode-the elevator, classic. just classic.
welchs fruit snacks.. ya, those are pretty much my favorite.
I LOVE the way you write. I discovered your blog thanks to Utopia and now I am hooked. Its funny, entertaining and optimistic. You come across as a happy person and that is such a tough find in today’s day and age.
God bless and keep writing.
the curiosity is killing me. not only do i not know how to upload mobile photos, but i lack the ability to label them in pink font. you think i’m joking, but i must know.
also, that plastic business is serious eh?! it’s in baby bottles, the lining of canned foods….industry is killing us slowly. perhaps it is time to invest in thermos-brand stainless steel carry cups?
No. I can’t throw away my Nalgene. I just can’t… so I guess I’ll just… what were the conseqences again? Love the Little Mermaid, and I love you for referencing that. Hope you’re having a great weekend!
omg I’ve fallen back in love with greys too!..well love is a strong world…i’ll get there but until then the elevator scene, the fact that addison doesnt have that obnoxious snubby (made up word?) pout anymore and oh yea, the elevator scene are making it worthwhile.
You had me at “ovary punch”.
*swoon*
I havent gotten around to watching the new episodes of Grey’s yet. Why does The Office have to be on at the same time?!
And for the record, and I”m not sure why, but I think nalgene bottles make water taste like gross plastic. Who knows.
I bought all my kids and myself the sigg water bottles because they aren’t supposed to be bad. Yet. Who knows, right? They keep telling us everything causes cancer, so I’m not too sure what we are supposed to do!
We had the Nalgene scare in the US, but they never went so far as to yank them from the shelves.
I’m afraid to check for the magic number on my bottle! I love it! We’ve been together since undergrad! I have such warm memories of wandering around campus with that bottle full of vodka and cran-grape juice… I can’t give all that up!!
