Grey’s Anatomy Quotes
Yes, I watch Grey’s Anatomy. And sometimes its got some good quotes. And here some of them are. I’ll add to this post periodically, so feel free to bookmark it if you like Grey’s as well.
Okay, here it is, your choice… it’s simple, her or me, and I’m sure she is really great. But Derek, I love you, in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me.
For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can’t get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can’t cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don’t want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it’s everything.
Damn it. I’m a bad sponge. A leaky sponge. I’m gonna leak all the wrong secrets. I’m a bad liar. I can’t even lie about talking to myself.
No commentsMy Favorite Movie… Ruined.
“If Lucy Fell.”
Nobody’s ever seen this movie, besides me. Its got Sarah Jessica Parker, in her pre-Sex in the City days, and Ben Stiller before his Zoolander days. And Elle McPherson. Its got silly stuff, sad stuff, and has always been one of my favorite Romantic Comedies. Everyone else loves “When Harry Met Sally” - I love “If Lucy Fell.”
So, I start watching, because thats what you do when your favorite movie is on.
And they’ve cut out words - on behalf of the TV sensor. Now, normally I don’t mind, but the word they’ve cut is “Dick”, and in this case it really is used in relation to artwork. (Joe is a painter, and he’s done a painting called Limp Dick Man.) They won’t allow Elle McPherson to whisper “He does have a rather limp dick”; but, they do allow Joe to announce that he has herpes. On his mouth.
Whatever - the movie is fabulous. Watch it. With or without the Limp D*ck Man.
And stay tuned for my favorite quote:
“I’m starting to get this dating thing, I think. I sit back and watch as these strange men try to impress you in weird and stupid ways, and then, you pick the least disgusting one, I guess.”
Like a Train Wreck…
I’m addicted. I’m addicted to these smutty “Make fun of celebrity” sites like The Superficial and What Would Tyler Durden Do. I’m not a celebrity hound, I can’t tell you who was married to who, who did coke off of who’s chest, and at least half the time I can’t even figure out who these people are writing about.
But… I keep going back to the sites, day after day.
Why?
Because these celebrities, who are supposed to have such great lives, are train wrecks. They’re bad accidents that you dont want to look at, but you just can’t look away. These sites expolit all of the gore, make it digestable, and even funny.
It makes me feel better about my “normal” life - where I dont have to worry about shaving my head creating national news.
No commentsBritney Spears Hair?
Ok, honestly - since when is it worthy of front page news because some overwrought washed up former pop star changes her hair? Who really cares? If you do… you can go see pictures, read more about it, etc. on People.com
Edit: And if you haven’t seen enough, check out this page to see some fun photoshopping of how other celebs would look if they were follicley challenged.
No commentsRandom Rambling
I was driving to work yesterday, and thought of a really good blog topic. Of course, by the time I got to work, parked the car, got all of my crap inside the building and got settled in, I forgot what it was. Sorry kiddos. Better luck next time.
In the meantime, here’s a fun wrap-up of what’s new.
- Ionic therapy. They’ve been doing this interesting treatment on my wrist to help reduce tendon inflammation. It basically consists of placing 2 patches on my arm (one with anti-inflammatory medication over the affected tendon), and connecting the patches to a 9V battery, with what look to be miniature jumper cables. 15 minutes later, I have big red spots where the patches were, blister-like bubbles where the medication is being pushed through my skin, and eventually, less pain. After 5 treatments of this, I’m starting to feel more like a human being. However, the skin on the back of my hand is starting to feel more like a lizard.
- Anna Nicole. Ok, so its not really news, but I’m starting to wonder how many days that she’s going to be appearing on Google News. Its very tragic that her bizarre and twisted life came to an early demise, and that 4 or 5 men are fighting over her 5-month-old daughter. The best that we can hope for is that the child will be raised out of the spotlight, and will be able to live as normal of a life as possible, having sprung from Anna Nicole.
- Work. I’ve been at my new job for just over a month and half now. It’s taken some time to get used to just telling other people what needs to be done, rather than just doing it myself. I’m starting to feel like there’s a lot I can learn from this job - and a lot I can bring to it. Oh, and my office got moved - finally. The new location allows me to see a busy intersection in town. Every day I get to see at least 2-3 fire trucks go by, and about twice a week there are ambulances. Its entertaining. We also got a $3500 coffee machine for the office, courtesy of a special bonus that one of the sales teams earned. We all get to partake of the special coffees, teas, and hot chocolate, that come in these super-wastful little packages. But hey, I plan to take full advantage of the machine, especially when the chai comes in!
- Dating. Oh, why bother? Seriously? Its really true that all you do is watch as strange men try to impress you in weird and stupid ways, and then you pick the least disgusting one. So far, I’m not all that impressed.
- Dogs. My mom accidentally got a new dog this week. She’s pretty funny - a 5 lb pomeranian with more hair than brains. We’re calling her Foxy Roxy. Her newest trick is to stand across your foot when you’re sitting down. You can actually lift your leg, with her on your foot, and she just hangs out. She’s entertaining. But Pete hates her. We’ll see how long all this lasts.
