Aaaaaaaah!!! Another week over. Well, almost over. In any case, looking forward to seeing some friends and family this weekend, catching up on a little movie-watching, perhaps, enjoying some wine, sleeping a little late Saturday morning... Sky's the limit, guys, and I've got lofty ambitions as I'm sure you can tell.
In other news, there seems to be an epidemic of people not understanding nor appreciating my sarcasm. What's up with that, guys? Let's get our shit together, please. I can't with this sudden onset of seriousness going around. I can't.
WWBD? (What would Beyoncé do?)
It's Beyoncé, bitches. So I taught myself to make glittery font. You're welcome.
1. In April, the touring cast of Disney's Broadway musical The Lion King boarded a flight and broke out in joyous song. I thought it was marvelous. Breathtaking even. And now, they've gone and done it again -- this time aboard a New York City subway train. I like that some of the people on the train are completely unmoved. New Yorkers, man. But whatever -- I love it. And if they are going to keep doing this, would someone please direct them to my office? It would make me ever so happy.
2. Does anyone else love country music? And Pharrell's "Happy?" To be honest, I'm a little over the latter, but I can listen to the Rascal Flatts lead singer, Gary LeVox, sing just about anything. His voice is ridiculous. So this is awesome.
3. So I guess Jeremy Lin is a basketball player (yeah, I know, I know - I'm the last one to learn about "Linsanity")... I assume he's pretty good. Apparently he plays on my home team? I really have no idea. But what I do know is he's enjoying the hell out of his summer break.
I'd like to point out that this Instagram post has the hashtags #SorryMom and #TakeNoPrisoners in it. Whatever kind of player he may be, he's also apparently just a frat boy stuck at home on Summer break, looking for crazy things to do that torture his family and neighbors. It's oddly charming.
4. Can we all stop and talk about Chris Pratt? And how he is awesome? And that my friend Emily has decided I should marry him? Despite what Anna Faris may think about this and my friend Danielle's claim to him, I think it's a pretty solid plan. Especially in light of this amazing achievement -- he is clearly the world's biggest Eminem fan. God bless.
Fun, embarrassing fact about me? I love Eminem as well. Enough so that I also took the time to learn many of his lyrics back in the day. Not sure I could do what Chris did, but I may try in the car next time one of his hits comes on the shuffled playlist... (NO YOU ARE NOT GETTING A VIDEO OF ME DOING THIS.)
5. This is pretty cool. It's wonderful. It seems Comic Con is liberating for one and all -- celebrities included. Because everyone is in costume and thus it becomes fairly easy for even the biggest celebrities to blend in should they put a costume on themselves.
Check out this guy, for example:
Remember that time Harry Potter was Spiderman, guys?
I think it would be hilarious if Daniel Radcliffe put on some kind of prosthetic nose and went as Harry. Really mess with people. But I love this.
Thank you to Meghan for sending the article to me. She knows my sense of humor well.
Unlike the aforementioned jerks who don't get my singular, brilliant wit. Everyone out there have a nice weekend. Except those guys.
