Fry: "I did do the nasty in the pasty!"
Nibbler: "Verily. And that past nastification is what shields you from the brains. You are the last hope of the universe."
Fry: "So, I really am important? How I feel when I'm drunk is correct?"
Nibbler: "Yes. Except the Dave Matthews Band doesn't rock."

Fry: "Hey, Professor, what are you teaching this semester?"
Farnsworth: "Same thing I teach every semester. The mathematics of quantum neutrino fields. I made up the title so that no student would dare take it."
Fry: "Mathematics of wanton burrito meals. I'll be there!"
Farnsworth: "Please, Fry! I don't know how to teach. I'm a professor!"

Wife: "And what is this emotion you humans call 'wuv'?"
Lurr: "Surely it says 'love'."
Wife: "No, 'wuv'! With an Earth 'w'. Behold!"
Lurr: "This concept of 'wuv' confuses and infuriates us!"

Top Chef

This is day 2 in a row that I spilled coffee all over myself. I think I’m addicted to the caffeine.

Last night was the start of Top Chef. Andrew picked his favorite and she was the first to go home lol. It should get better when there's less people.

I was going to give Andrew a raspberry on the tummy last night and he accidentally pushed me off the bed. By accident, I elbowed him in the ear. As I was falling, all I could think about was twisting enough to be able to avoid getting stabbed in the back with the corner of the bedside table. I managed to do that quite well actually, but I still landed hard on a pile of shoes and a belt and having the three hundred pound flashlight hit me in the back. My leg still hurts today. No visible bruise, but it sure feels that way. Andrew's ear is ok.

We might be going to Nguyen's housewarming party on Saturday. Fun! I like Andrew's co-workers.

Sinkholes

A sinkhole opened up on Capital Circle yesterday. I like sinkholes, just not when they open under something important. Like the road, or Ryan’s house. Leon Sinks in the Apalachicola Nat’l Forest is pretty cool. If you go on the 3 mile hike, halfway is a beautiful sinkhole lake. I mean really pretty. In the summer it should be covered in magnolia blooms. So pretty. One of the last times I was there, I was by myself taking some pictures for my photo class. I was trying to get the same feel as Ansel Adams. Anyways, I got all freaked out thinking there were snakes and stuff and all of a sudden my phone buzzed and I just about threw it and ran away. The Gopher sink is really cool too. I could spend all day looking at the sinks.


This is the Capital Circle sinkhole. You can see the layers. How cool is that?
Here is a video from the Ukraine. It was on TV last night on the Destroyed in Seconds show. I love that show. It’s real close in my rankings with Project Runway and The Smoking Gun Presents shows and the Tornado Chaser show and MythBusters.



Speaking of Smoking Gun Presents, last night was a good one. The best was the catfish catching. “Instead of using a pole, you use your arm. And instead of using bait, you use...your arm.” lol

What I learned from the Daily Show coverage

• South Carolina was in fact not the bonus state that triples your score.
• Connecticut is aptly named the nutmeg state because while it is nice to have, it is not essential.
• Governor Palin killed Bambi’s mother while bow hunting from a hang glider.
• China can now legally keep Americans as pets.
• The next president is inheriting a problem sandwich, or a giant shit burger, or a crap taco, or a turd-pounder with cheese. No one has seen anything like this since Hoover left his hoagie on FDR’s doorstep.
• Things are looking very good for 9 on the pick 4 lotto.
• 2 people in the audience are Republicans.
• 92% of the people who live in D.C. like Obama.
• Obama tore it up in the Electoral College. Hooray for Obama winning!

Andrew took the car, so I took the bus home. It took forever! It left late. Really late. I got off at Shane’s to try and get free food, but was denied. It was only for the first 200 or so people and I definitely was not in that group. So I bought dinner instead. Some guy gave me an Obama sticker while I was waiting. Lauren came and picked me up because she’s awesome and I love her. She came over later and I helped her with her homework (a very tiny bit). We watched the election coverage a bit (nothing else was on. I promise. Really. A rerun South Park was on, but we don’t watch that with Lauren.).

Oh, and hooray for Akin Akinyemi! Boo for passing Amendment 2. Why is there so much hate around Amendment 2?

Halloween & Voting

Halloween was a blast! We went to the FSU circus and it was fun. They did their normal stuff only in spooky costumes. It was great. After, we went to see what was going on on Woodward. Lauren joined us there. They had free corn dogs and caramel apples and bananas on sticks. Everything was good. Lauren and I played a “midway” game where we had to blow tiny boats with a straw. I won, but I think it was a tie. We colored a sidewalk tile with black light chalk. Pumpkins in Space. I think Lauren took a picture.

So today Andrew and I voted. The line was worse than I thought it was going to be. The plan was to get up early and go eat breakfast and then go vote. Wrong. When we got out to the street and saw the line that was already there (at 6:30am!), we postponed breakfast until after. We parked and Andrew couldn’t find his registration card, so we went back home to look where he found it in his pocket. The line was longer when we got back. It wasn’t that bad though. It probably only took an hour to do everything. Having a last name that starts with W was beneficial. We got to skip in line because of it.

Is it sad that I want to watch the Daily Show coverage of the election tonight instead of CNN or MSNBC?

Rodizios and last night's tv

Andrew and I went to Rodizios last night for dinner. It was really good. They had this one cut of meat that quite literally melted in your mouth. It was awesome. Andrew liked it a lot. He said he liked it better than the Melting Pot, but I disagree. I like other things than just meat. If we go back again, I think I will keep my “salad bar” plate throughout the meal.

Funny but sad story: when we got home I flipped on the TV and the Obammercial was on. Like the very last two minutes or so. He was wrapping it up and I was like, that looks like he is in the Bank Atlantic center! So I called Dad and he confirmed. It’s sad that I can recognize the Panther stadium in like 2 seconds.

I also watched the Daily Show interview with Obama. I thought it was good. He answered questions without just restating the question in the form of a sentence. You betcha. I also saw the Colbert Report, and it was the first time that The Word was a fail. It really wasn’t that funny. But on a not political note, congrats Phillies. It would have been nice for the Rays to win, but, eh, neither team is the Marlins so I really don’t care. Also, Eddie got sent home on Top Design. I was scared for Nathan. I really want him to win. I heart Nathan. I like Ondine too. Preston, not so much. Eddie was starting to get on my nerves, but the judges were right. Nathan’s house would totally be more interesting.

Amazing Grace & Gilligan's Island

Did you ever try to sing the words from Amazing Grace to the tune of Gilligan’s Island?

Lauren told us that if you want to get a song that’s stuck in your head out, then all you need to do is sing the Amazing Grace lyrics to the theme from Gilligan’s Island. Her thing was that you are concentrating so hard on that that the other song dissipates. Yeah, well, baloney. I have that stuck in my head now. We tried it with Lauren, and it was kind of challenging the first time, but now that I’ve heard it, it’s almost as easy as Happy Birthday. Although, I think most of the concentrating the first time was figuring out how Gilligan’s Island went.

I'm a BravoTV junkie

I was watching Top Design on Bravo last night and I noticed something unusual. As the judges were talking, they were using big, complicated words. I didn’t really understand the guy at all. I couldn’t even tell from the context. “That’s so (insert big word). I mean, it’s like (insert a different big word).” I didn’t even know if he liked anything! And I thought TV catered to the lowest forms of intelligence.

Speaking of great TV, Project Runway was on too. We got home just as it was going off, so I made Andrew change the channel so I wouldn’t know the ending before I saw the beginning. So, sitting through the last 5 minutes of Mr. and Mrs. Smith and watching the ending credits roll, I switched back to Bravo just in time to see Kenley crying. I quickly switched back and made a mental note to fix the VCR clock to the right time. “Crap.” I thought. “They are sending Kenley home. I liked her.”

So I sat through Top Design until the encore showing of Project Runway. It was an ok one I thought. The clothes weren’t as nice as they had been all season, especially Jarel’s. OMG I thought the dress was going to fall off of the model! So, he won, but no one lost. Surprise! They all get to make collections and then next week, they’ll pick the three to go to Bryant Park. They did a similar thing last season with Ramey and Chris. I liked Chris. He was my 2nd favorite. This season I like Kenley, but not just because she’s from Pompano. I like Leann and Jarel, but they are not my favorites. I think Kato should win. I think she’s the best. Kenley makes 50’s style clothes, Jarel makes shiny brown clothes, Leann makes sculptured embellishments, and Kato makes pretty yellow things.
