Something’s Gotta Give

Erica: I’m like the dumb girl that doesn’t get it. I’ve never been the dumb girl before. It ain’t great.
Harry: Let’s just calm down. I had these plans before I even met you. I mean, I do like seeing you. I do.
Erica: [scoff] Yeah.
Harry: I’m always surprised by it.
Erica: Surprised by it? What was I thinking?
Harry: I have never lied to you. I have always told you some version of the truth.
Erica: The truth doesn’t have versions, okay?
Harry: Will you cut me a little slack? My life has just been turned upside down.
Erica: Mine too!
Harry: Well, then let’s just each get our bearings.
Erica: I don’t want my bearings. I’ve had my bearings my whole goddamn life. I feel something with you I never really knew existed. Do you know what that’s like, after a 20-year marriage to feel something for another person that is so…? That… Oh, Right. Right. Not your problem. God. Do you know that I’ve written this, but I never really got it? Do you know what this is?
Harry: No.
Erica: [Erica kisses Harry] This is heartbroken. How’s that for impervious.
Harry: You’re killing me.
Erica: I just wish that it had lasted more than a week.
Harry: Me too.
Erica: That is a terrible thing to say. You know, the life I had before you I knew how to do that. I could do that forever. But now look at me. What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do with all this?

Funny how sometimes movies have a way of hitting the truth nail on the head. I need to stop watching TV.

What is love?

It’s a song, by J. Lo. Which I am a little bit ashamed to admit is on my top 25 most played on itunes. (BTW isn’t that the most horrible part of itunes? I have the most epically bad taste in music when it comes to what I will listen to on repeat over and over and over again), but back to the point. This song. This song is my life. FACT.

Seriously, who would have thought J. Lo would be the one to hit the nail on the head? I certainly didn’t. Then again, we both know she didn’t write it, so I’m going to believe it was someone with a little more depth. (But really who are we kidding, I’m relating my life to a J. Lo song and somehow judging her for lack of depth.)

It’s also been out for nearly two years, but it’s on her new album. Re-release? While I ponder the recyclage, have a listen my pookies. Oh yes, I did just call you that. It’s cause I can’t be bothered to say your names. Also, please note the lyrics. They are of course what I relate to, that and the super catchy na nas.

my new obsession

so for the past week I’ve been working my way through every single comic on this site. Four years of near-daily posts = lots of comics.

Night Cap

brundiggity — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 04:25:52 +0000

No better way to cap off the night than to find out that there’s a new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows trailer. I can’t even begin to describe my excitement, it’s borderline (read: full on) 12 year old at a Justin Bieber meet and greet. And here I was thinking I’d never have the opportunity to say anything positive when mentioning Justin Bieber. I stand corrected.

Tyra loves herself a onepiece

brundiggity — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 04:59:05 +0000

Ok, so I am unemployed and as such have spent a lot of time watching morning television. The View, Rachel Ray, Live with Regis and Kelly, The Tyra Banks show, you name it, I’ve been watching it (in my defence I haven’t been watching Maury, although a few more weeks of unemployment and paternity tests here I come).

With all this TV watching I’ve noticed something very important, Tyra Banks loves herself a jumpsuit. That or the show has a really low wardrobe budget. She’s worn a jumpsuit (I’m convinced the same one-a heather grey one–see picture #1 below) nearly every day for the past two weeks. She’s also recycling belts, in particular a yellow belt/sash (Don’t think I didn’t notice Tyra. I did).

Don’t get me wrong she rocks the look, and it can’t be denied there are plenty of benefits to a one-piece outfit., comfort (it’s like a onesie for adults), not having to worry about picking separates, that sort of thing. But you know, there are negatives too. For example, what if you need to go to the bathroom during a two minute commercial break? You’d have to take off the belt (Tyra always belts, always) and hang it somewhere (which can be difficult in some bathrooms), and then you practically have to get naked in order to pee. Is two minutes really enough? Does she have enough time to wash her hands? What if she doesn’t make it back on time? Does the choir do a number? (what is with that choir anyways? has there ever been anything more annoying on TV? and how would they even know what to sing if Tyra isn’t there to lead them?)

I could go on, but I should probably stop. So I will.

How freakin’ cool is this

You know how when you (me) were little you would spend hours on MS Paint painstakingly drawing things, or editing images, (this was before the days of photoshop) wishing that there was some magical program that would just take what you imagine and make it real, well it appears that we are almost at that stage. “A research team from several universities has put together a system whereby you can draw a terrible stick picture sketch, label your blobby objects what they’re supposed to be, and it will essentially photoshop something together for you that meets your criteria.”

This is my new favourite site. It’s almost at stumbleupon level of love, not yet, but almost (really not even remotely close, but it’s still great).

secret confession #1

brundiggity — Wed, 17 Jun 2009 04:43:36 +0000

Sometimes when I’m really bored I like to rewatch my favourite scenes/episodes from movies/shows.

Here’s a selection for your viewing pleasure. Check it out after the jump.

PS-I am sorry for the quality of some of these. It’s not my fault, blame youtube.

1. Moulin Rouge, Come What May (finale)-It’s THE grand gesture, you know that moment when the person you love finally realizes that they love you and are willing to take a risk to let you know.

2. Mamma Mia, The Winner Takes it All- I love this clip, yeah the movie was cheesier than a block of mozarella, but Meryl Street can belt a song.

3. The Notebook, The Kiss- All around hotness. Oh Ryan Gosling, how I’ve loved you since your Breaker High days.

please note: if you are seeing a pattern here (ie. chick flicks) I have already adressed my love of them. Sue me.

4. Bridget Jones, Just as you are- Umm, who doesn’t want to hear this?

5. Grey’s Anatomy, Pick Me- Story of my life. Make difficult confession (check!), wait endlessly for response you’re never going to get (check!). Meredith waited two full seasons, that’s a lot of waiting.

6. Sex and City, I don’t live here anymore- I love this scene, even though they end up together in the end it’s the first time Carrie actually grows a pair and calls Big on his bullshit. Loves it.

7. Gilmore Girls, Gift Ship- Awkward but hilarious.

8. Grey’s Anatomy, Izzie and Denny-This is the best video I could find.

This is all I can think of right now.

and they keep falling like leaves from a tree

Two new movies based on books to look forward to. The first is The Time Traveller’s Wife based on the book of the same name by Audrey Niffenegger. The book was absolutely beautiful, one of my all time favourites and the movie doesn’t look like it will be terrible so that’s promising. What isn’t promising is that this film was supposed to have been released last December but got pushed back soo many times (with the excuse that they were waiting for Eric Bana’s hair to grow back in order to finish filming–which begs the questions why didn’t he wait until he finished filming to cut his hair) I’m afraid it might be terrible. Check out the trailer here:

And, The Road based on the book of the same name by Cormac McCarthy, also looks quite good. I haven’t yet read the book, but I do own it and plan on reading it before the release of the film this coming fall. Check it out:
