Chubby?!

Rant time: I just saw an ad for "gay chubby dating". Is that a term of affection now? If someone called me chubby I would be rather put-upon. And while I'm all for "to each his own" I don't quite understand that. If you like their personality cause they've had to face adversity cause of their size, then fine. Still weird but we'll roll with it. But it's not healthy, so why should we encourage it? Americans are so fucking baffling sometimes.

Black and gold, black and gold

I am in love with that new song. No idea why exactly, but I am seriously loving it. By Sam Sparro if you don't know. The video is kind of sexy too. I didn't like it the first time, but I really do now. Same was true of Hirai Ken's horrible song (it's still horrible, i just kind of like it in spite of) and one of amuro's songs. I forget which one. Anyway, LOVE.

Not much new here. Just applied to the CIA today. Finishing up the application for the supreme court job that I'm horribly under-qualified for tomorrow. My room is almost clean. Just a few piles of stuff, including a pile of bear clothes that have no place. But I've gotten rid of a ton of shit. At least by my standards. I reckon tomorrow I'll go put in an application at borders. I'll need to kill time until a better job offer comes along. This planning of the future is stressful.

As far as TV goes, since I commented on NOTHING last week, 25-words-or-less finale time:

Housewives: Enjoyable. This season was really good, not sure i approve of the fast forward.

Model: I'm glad Whitney won, although Anya was strong. They had to do plus-size eventually.

HIMYM: Pretty good, but Marshall looks horrible this season. Fat and splotchy

Big Bang Theory: Sheldon is great.

That's all I've got finale-wise. this is the big week. Gossip Girl and House are on the faux-vo for tomorrow. Tomorrow I get to go out to dinner with Dan, I'm quite excited to see him, it's been awhile. I'm not sure if it's just he and I or he I and Erin, but we'll see.

Alas it's late.

TV: Sun-Tues

I was initially only going to write about Monday and Tuesday, but then I realized there won't be any more Brothers and Sisters for several months, which would be a waste. Off we go

Extreme Makeover Home Edition: I haven't seen this in two years. Little disappointed that nothing at all changed in that time.

Desperate Housewives: This show is so improved this season. Season 2 was horrible, season 3 was OK, but I am in love with Season 4. Dana Delaney is fantastic, and I'm so happy she's coming back next season. The mystery is getting interesting. I wish the gay couple was a bit less annoying, but I wish the same of Susan. I'm really excited for the two hour ep this weekend, especially the flash forward.

Brothers and Sisters: Mixed ep. The wedding made me a little teary, but probably just cause I miss the boyfriend. The drama surrounding the "6th Child" is a bit annoying. It's just WAY too convenient that all of William's children happen to have names that begin with R. And did the man EVER use protection? I just don't care much about that. I'm glad Kitty and Robert are adopting, and I like Justin and Rebecca together, too. I'm looking forward to next season.

Big Bang Theory: Same old same old. Nothing that really stood out, but it was entertaining none-the-less

How I Met Your Mother: I enjoyed Britney the first time, but I think the second time was way too soon. This time reeked more of stunt casting. And I'm also tired of Ted being all "I've outgrown you". He's being a tool and I'll be happy once we're over this.

House: A really interesting, if really strange, episode. I really liked all his flashback stuff, I didn't really care about the bus driver this week. I think next week will be really interesting though. But so help me god if Amber and House were having an affair someone is getting razor blades. Give him some redeeming quality.

Greek: I love this show. It's so teenagey but I do. I like all the characters except Rusty, and even he has his moments. I am done with "Rebecca is evil" from both the Cartwrights. Lets get a new mantra. And yay for Calvin getting a new love interest instead of having the "gay is ok" talk with Dale.

Gossip Girl: I have to say I was expecting worse when I heard "I killed a guy". Please, he did a line of coke and had a seizure. Just cause you were a crack-whore back then does not make it your fault. But the rest of the characters were fun, except Dan, who I hate. I read this week that the actor is jealous that everyone likes Chace Crawford instead. Frankly I like neither of them, but the story is amusing.

Samantha Who: Eh. Same old same old. Thinking I may give up on this soon.

Reaper: I don't know if I'm numb to the stupidity, or if it's actually getting good, but I enjoy this show a lot now. I always watched it, but it seems to have come into it's own. Next step is for Andi to get over her "this isn't right Sam, do something" lines. I'm so for the "shit happens" attitude that Sam takes. And Sam as the devil's son? We'll see about that.

One last note: I'm glad that we have a new "No one is safe" mentality on TV shows, but I'm tired of promos that end with "and one character sacrifices it all" blah blah blah. I like it when the deaths are complete and utter surprises. And permanent. Unless it's Lost, in which case anything goes and we're all along for the ride.

An attempt at blogging

So my last blog post was in September, which is woefully out of date. But since I'm trying to start a new life here, then I guess I can start my new blog. Now if only I could start working out.

Long story short: Just got back to America, looking for a job, missing my boyfriend. He's still in Japan, which is hard, but he's happy in Japan so we're doing our best. Job hunting is horrible though. I have no clue what I want to do, other than not be boring. It's kind of a vague thing to post on a resume site.

That's all I got for personal information, really. I'd rather talk about TV, so that's what I'm going to do.
