Dear tailgating jerk face awful driver,
I apologize for not wanting to drive 55 miles per hour up my own street and into my own driveway. It’s kind of easier to not smash into your own garage door if you are driving at a slightly slower speed. Thanks for the dirty look and stare down as you zipped past me though. You are an asshole.
P.S. Everyone tailgating me on the highway, where I...

Epic meltdown by Finland in the USA-Finland hockey semifinal. 6-0 USA and it’s still only the 1st period.
This is amazing. Unless you’re playing for Finland.

I would like a set of the USA aerials team uniforms to sleep in tonight. They look so comfy and pajama-like.

Oh, Mary Carillo, I’m going to miss our late night fireside conversations when the Olympics end on Sunday. I’ll probably end up going back to spending my late nights watching reruns of brain cell killing VH1 reality shows, and that’s just not the same.

Parents Choosing More Unusual Baby Names Now →
Poor children.
On the other hand, if I someday have children and give them traditional, normal names, odds are they’ll be the only ones in their class with that name, huh?

The Instant Art Critique Phrase Generator →
I totally could have used this when I was working on my art BA. I was never a big fan of critiques, but I especially hated those classes where the professor expected EVERYONE to speak at least once during the critique. It’s hard enough trying to come up with something insightful to say on a piece of work I don’t really understand, but trying to come up with something that...

Yet again.
Let’s just get this out of the way. Shut up, Sonny. Even though you weren’t on the show today, enough people talked about you that you might as well have been on the show. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up.
Let me spell it out so everyone in Port Charles can understand. Dante = Awesome. Sonny = Not awesome. Therefore, Dante is not Sonny, because Dante is awesome while Sonny is...

Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto, I’m awarding you a platinum medal. You most certainly deserved to be up there on the podium as part of a North American sweep over the Russians and their bungee cord costumes.

A couple of weeks ago I went to Target and bought a couple of noodle bowls (just mix in sauce packet and microwave!) that were on sale. Totally not gourmet food, but way tastier and better for you than, say, Cup O Noodles. (Not that there’s anything wrong with Cup O Noodles.) But if you add some chicken or vegetables. Pretty decent.
That said, it’s not weird that I’m looking...

No Johnny Weir at gala? Not much of a gala at all. →
I know Johnny Weir (undeservedly!) finished in sixth place, and the figure skating gala usually only involves the top five, but c’mon, Weir skated a flawless short program and nearly flawless long program and got one of the only standing ovations of all the men. Dude is popular. I know his program wasn’t difficult enough to get him a medal, but to have him finish behind two dudes who...

I think I’m gonna need an animated gif of Meryl Davis rolling her eyes when she didn’t know the camera was on her tonight. Anyone got one?

The 20 Funniest Figure Skating Faces →
Figure skating can be a beautiful sport, but as a photographer, I definitely recognize that it also has the tendency to be non-photogenic in still photos. This stuff is both hilarious and frightening all at the same time.

Luke: "Well, I didn’t shoot him in the chest, for one thing."

Once more, with feeling.
Oh dear. Carly Manning on Days of Our Lives just exclaimed, “I SHOT MY OWN DAUGHTER.” Fortunately, unlike Sonny Corinthos, Carly actually has feelings and isn’t a mobster, so she isn’t likely to try to place blame on this on other people. (I’m looking at you, Sonny, telling Olivia that if she’d only told him about Dante years ago, their lives would all be...

Sniff.
Woke up around 4am feeling like I’d swallowed sandpaper. Wanted to scream, “NOOOOOOOOOOOO!” in slow motion, but instead rolled over and tried to go back to sleep in case this was a bad, bad dream. Woke up at 9am and still felt like I had swallowed sandpaper. In total denial, I’ve gone about my business as usual, including letting Shaun T kick my ass with the Insanity Max...

I should have turned off the TV as soon as NBC 11’s not-so-good evening news started, but no, I didn’t. I left it on, and the late night portion (hosted by Mary Carillo and her feel good stories) of the Olympics started, and you know what it’s full of tonight? Short track speed skating. I love short track speed skating. So fun to watch. And yet, I need to go to bed. But...
School mistakes huge burrito for a weapon →
wearetheweirdos:
Someone called authorities Thursday after seeing a boy carrying something long and wrapped into Marshall Junior High.
The drama ended two hours later when the suspicious item was identified as a 30-inch burrito filled with steak, guacamole, lettuce, salsa and jalapenos and wrapped inside tin foil and a white T-shirt.
That burrito does sound pretty lethal.

Cue the tiny violins.
So, hey, did you guys know that Sonny shot his own son? Only he didn’t know Dante was his son. He thought Dante was an undercover cop who had infiltrated the organization in order to take him down, so shooting him was okay. Until he found out Dante was his own son. But Sonny cares about his kids, see? And he was a poor, abused kid, so that makes it okay that he’s in the mob and is...

Note to self.
If I ever find myself in need of urgent medical care, I hope I never have to receive that medical care at General Hospital in Port Charles, where apparently the ICU lacks employees and is a common area where people are free to come and go as they please, including known mobster hitmen who, the last time they were in the hospital, threatened a patient with a gun.

Most dramatic episode ever.
Except not really.
Have I mentioned how much I love The Bachelor? The show is pure comedy. Take this week’s episode for example. Tenley’s dancing! Vienna’s dad’s accent! Gia’s mom! Gia’s brother’s hair! Jake’s weird faces! Jake perfecting his Jason Mesnick moves! (Lean over balcony or railing. Scrunch face up. Weep.) The mere fact that...

Days Legend Frances Reid Dead at 95 →
Not going to lie, this makes me kind of sad. Rest in peace, Alice Horton. I really, really, really hope that whenever Days pays tribute to Frances Reid/Alice Horton that they pull out all of the stops and get as many Hortons as possible to appear on the show. She was the last remaining original character/actor from the very first show. She deserves the biggest tribute possible.
