01. i made baked ziti tonight for dinner! i'd never made it before, and it was actually moderately awesome. \o/ there may be hope for me yet.

02. so, like, we've had the most basic cable package possible for over a year, and then...something happened, we just discovered, and now we have like 70 channels? i'm...ohhhh my god, wait. back in, like, may or june i called to have our cable upgraded and someone was supposed to come here to do it, or something? and i wound up not being home the day they were supposed to come, and i assumed they had to come in the house to do...whatever it was they had to do. and so i just said "fuck it" and decided i didn't need all those channels anyway.

but maybe they didn't need to come in my house, and they just came by and did whatever, and it didn't matter that no one was home?

and i've had all these channels for like 4 months and just didn't know it because we had the remote programmed to the old lineup?

/o\

WHATEVER, I HAVE COMEDY CENTRAL AND TONIGHT I WATCHED BARACK OBAMA ON THE DAILY SHOW AND TOMORROW I WILL TIVO TRL (/o\) SO I CAN SEE "NORTHERN DOWNPOUR." LIFE IS GOOD.

questions of utmost importance.

annnnd #2. for this poll, assume that we are working with a normal belt that can't be upside-down or whatever.

with the album release almost upon us and saturday night live IMMINENT (omg, two days!) and a friend of mine feeling woeful about the lack of dcook love on her flist, the time seemed ripe for this.

so, i present...

THE DAVID COOK FRIENDING MEME


example or something. )

get on it, bbs!

two thoughts i feel compelled to share.

01. there's a memory from my childhood that occasionally resurfaces and pisses me off. i don't remember being pissed off at the time, but maybe my 8-year-old self sensed the inherent doucheyness, even if she didn't understand it, and that's why it stuck with me all these years.

all through elementary and middle school, i was in the gifted program. (it was renamed to a.l.p.h.a., or advanced learning program for high achievers, when i was about 10.) anyway, in second or third grade we had a new gifted teacher. i don't remember her name or what we did that year; the only thing i remember is her always referring to the program as GT (for gifted and talented) and telling our group one day "so if people ask where you're going when you leave class, you can just say 'GT', they won't know. they'll probably think you said PE."

as far as i know, none of us had been bullied or teased. in all my years in that program, i never was. so why on earth would she indicate to a bunch of kids that intelligence was something of which to be ashamed? fail, teacher lady. massive fail.

02. in much more shallow news, i've decided that tivo really needs to incorporate programming via txt. if i could txt "record 30 rock" or whatever and have my tivo be all "i will record 30 rock tonight on nbc at 9:30" it would be fucking RAD.
