have you ever tried spam before? I ate it for the first time in Hawaii... I figured since they were the highest in spam consumption per capita, I would be short-changing myself if I didn't get the full effect of Hawaiian culture.
Well in Hawaii I ate it in the form of musubi: a spam-shaped block of rice with a slice of fried spam on top, wrapped with this thing of seaweed (kinda like the stuff sushi is made with-- the paper thin, dried stuff.) It's a like a little rice spam sandwich, got it for a dollar at 7-11. Strangely satisfying... spam is... interesting. Not bad fried served with scrambled eggs for breakfast (think "50 First Dates"). I don't think I'll make it a regular part of my diet though ;-)
No, alas, i no longer bungi and sushi on thursdays, let alone any other day of the week. Which is really a pity, seeing as I live all of 2 seconds -walking- from the Sushi Boy Desu. After taking the ultimate plunge, i no longer feel the need to jump, i suppose. (excuse my shameless marriage cliche)
Wow. That is a cool word-- chomment. What else are chomment boxes for, anyways? And this is the first I've heard of sushi as a verb. Where have I been?
Leave it to the spelling bee champ to make up words.
Shame on you Nina. I used to live vicariously through your bungi jumping as there was no way I was going to spend $60 bucks to get up there and chicken out.
and sushi's just fun...it's all rolled or not and cute and pretty and different. K, so I don't usually eat the real raw stuff, but I still like the whole experience.
Umm. I don't lunch until 1:00...so we can go together! I'll meet you at Cafe Rio...mmm k? Since Courtney's all involved with Bobby, I havent anyone to cafe rio with.
Grrr... you said Cafe Rio. Suddenly my yummy lunch doesn't sound as appetizing.
Sushi-- yeah the rolled stuff. From what I understand some places in Japan have like a bar with a conveyor belt thing that all kinds of sushi comes by on. How cool would that be? Oh the anticipation... what kind of Sushi will be coming by NEXT? Too bad I eat cause I like the flavor more than cause it's fun. I'm so boring.
at least you guys even have the prospect of cafe rio. pobre de mi. I live in las vegas, where we have no cafe rio, and nothing comparable. It is a sad, decreased calorie life we live here. (umm, sarah, not sure about that spanish, if it is even spanish. I think it was in a song i learned in high school called "soy una pizza".)
"Pobre de mi" never actually heard. It could translate to "woe is me" but don't know if it is a commonly used phrase. You could say "pobrecita" - poor little thing. Or "ay de mi" which now that I think of it is actually the translation of "woe is me" so don't listen to me, k?
Don't speak so soon. I just had this girl in my office bringing me a document I know nothing about swearing that I told her that I needed it for her Medicaid. Which I don't. We got lost in translation I think. Plus, half the time they are just not as used to hospital procedure and stuff that they don't have in their countries. At least that's what I keep telling myself.
at least you guys even have the prospect of cafe rio. pobre de mi. I live in las vegas, where we have no cafe rio, and nothing comparable.
What are you talking about? There's one in St. George, that's only a 2 hour road trip away. it's worth it =P
I kid you not, if and when they finally get an In-n-Out in St. George I will make a trip to eat there. But then I'm not as big of fan of In-n-Out's food... it's just the experience. I'm weird like that.
I know I know... I realized that as soon as I made mention of In-n-Out. Honestly I didn't realize I wasn't in love with In-n-Out until June this year when I went to one in Vegas. But by then I had already made a promise to visit one in St. George if there ever was one. Besides, they have Nielson's Frozen Custard and Cafe Rio in St. George to make up for it. (I'm just pretending like I can take my foot out of my mouth. Good thing I ate lunch already)
and there now is a Nielson's in Vegas. All we need is a Cafe Rio, and we're set.
And Nina I will be coming at Thanksgiving time. Unless Boom or Courtney go sooner and don't mind my tagging along. I was kinda avoiding vegas all summer.
and I sorta remember a certain little sister and not so little husband promising several times that they were coming out here for a visit but have they? Nope. Come soon because Jess and Ryan are selling their house and maybe moving to Layton.
i know. it's been too crazy. and now we are going to disneyland, and london. but i am hoping we will still be able to take a weekend and come up to utah. I read that the Rembrandt etchings that the church recently acquired are on display at the church museum. Would love to see that. Y'all ought to go.
Yargh, I didn't know they had Nielson's there. Then again, I didn't know they had one in Salt Lake until about a year ago, all this time I thought St. George was special or something. *sniffle*
I think we went to the In-n-Out on Sahara. All I know is that it wasn't the "popular" one that everyone from out of town hits. It was the first time I had fries animal style.
And Vegas has theaters with digital projectors too. Man if Vegas ever gets a Cafe Rio...
Okay locita. Amelia just emailed me to see how my day was going and asked if I was excited for LOST tonight (which I am by the way) and then said she was off to translate for some clients. So how else couold I respond then "Don't get lost in translation!" I'm a nerd.
I didn't want to bring it up, but I am so stoked for lost. We're having a lost party. Matthew is making a roast and we are going to our friends house that have dvr, so we can pause and rewind and all that. We did it last week too. We didn't even watch it last season, but we got the dvd's, and we totally got Lost.
Yeah, I came in a little late, so I am eating lunch, chommenting, and even working...all at once. Talk about multi-tasking.
and I would like to announce that after finishing my chicken noodle soup, there is a little sea of pepper at the bottom of the bowl. How I love pepper.
I'm so amazed that people are getting sucked into Lost that didn't even watch it last season. There are so many little things you might not notice the first time around, I so need to watch the DVDs for the first season. Gahh.... I wish I had time to. I'm lucky to have time to watch the new episode tonight. I knew we should have had a Lost marathon a couple weeks back rather than go camping.
When i leave for work in the morning, in the dark, at 5:50am, the garbage truck is always nearby, emptying the various dumpsters in our neighborhood, and it always makes me jump and i get that scary feeling in the pit of my stomach. Because it sounds all clanky and mechanical. It's so silly.
yeah, all I know from last season is from Jess' commentary. But I'm beyond hooked. Amelia and I have a Lost party too. But it's just us...and Gidget.
Pepper is my favorite commodity. It's wonderful. The mission ruined my tastebuds. Nothings good unless it's hot.
Nina, remember when Dad scared me after watching Jurassic Park? Innocent girl taking out the trash and her big burly comes jumping out of the bushes growling. I think I cried.
Yes, I watched them! Matthew and I didn't do ANYTHING for a week. We came home from work and watched lost, and watched lost, and stayed up WAY past our bedtime to watch more lost. For a week. The house was a mess. I even admit to reading lost message boards, and searching screencaps for...clues. One day of that and I said i would never do it again. I did it again.
It's official. I need the DVD's. And more pepper. I decided the other day that the big pepper is better than the finely grinded stuff. And when it's fresh ground, mmmmmm.
And who's glad that Arrested Development got picked up yet again? Meee! But I keep missing it. I might just have to wait until the end of the season to watch the whole thing.
We got them at Costco for like $30 i think. Not exactly cheap, but they've already gone through about three families, and there are more in line. So they're being well used.
Pepper is my favorite commodity. It's wonderful. The mission ruined my tastebuds. Nothings good unless it's hot.
My family says the same thing about my taste buds. I think everything is bland. One time my mom made some caserole and I put that rooster chili sauce in it. It was quite good after that! Tasted... mexican.
Well christina you got me beat. I did nearly pull a couple all nighters back in March when I downloaded most the season, but I had no screen caps and have yet to cave and visit the forums. It was fun watching 18 episodes within about 72 hours though. So tell me-- I swear there's an episode that says why Hurley was in the nut house to begin with. My sisters don't believe me. I'm too lazy to go back and find the episode. So why was he in there?
ah yes. Locke... think there's a connection with that guy in this season's premier living in the hatch and Locke being able to walk again as well as Jack's former wife?
Ohhh. That was Michael. He gave us Sledge Hammer. So totally hilarious. You know a show is bad when they actually blow up the world in the finale, because there is no chance in heaven it will run another season.
That was shannon's dad? The guy that future wife crashed into? Dooood. You are so much more lost than me. But I can understand Jin when he talks. So nah.
I need to watch all of sledge hammer. You are both much more lost than myself. In fact, I think I almost found. And I can understand Jin as well. They're called subtitles.
Yeah he's got an accent. I don't think he's a native speaker of Korean. Sun sounds more natural. Oi. That scene when they make up just before they leave on the raft, it was a tear jerker...
And I can understand Jin as well. They're called subtitles.
That's what you think ;) That's someone else's translation of what Jin says. It's funny really-- you'd think a show written in English would have better translations for the Korean dialogue, wouldn't you?
It's true. I live for little moments where I hear Korean. You hear spanish every day. It's like knowing a secret code. A few weeks ago in one of the restrooms at work someone was talking rather loud in spanish from the john. I had no idea if he was calling out or if he was just on the phone. I sure hope he wasn't asking for TP in spanish because I sure didn't understand.
I hate to admit it, but the comic book that walt finds (which was hurleys) that is in spanish, I found it in english and read the whole stinkin thing. It's all about a mind altering alien that can make people think and do things. Interesting...
Yeah isn't the guy who plays Jin from Hawaii or something? I mean I knew he didn't grow up in Korea, but he sounds worlds better than most non-Koreans that try to speak it. Actually Owen Wilson didn't do too bad in Starsky and Hutch... actually sounded better to me than the chinese guy who was pretending to be Korean.
Gilmore Girls, gasp. I didn't see last night's OR last weeks. I'm falling behind.
Oh man. The crown goes to christina for biggest Lost nerd (though secretly I want to read that comic book too). How much longer can I resist the forums...
i swear i only forumed for three days. And I got all the info I could ever want. I will send you guys the link to the comic book if you want, but i warn you, it is kind of long.
christina may know everything about everything, but can you rhyme with words like institude and substitute?
Hook me up with the comic. I somehow doubt I could let go after only 3 days on the forum. I trolled a "Ring" forum for several days after Samara crawled under my skin in 2002.
whoah. That's pretty radical... I thought women loved shoes, but what better way to assert your dominance? I thought maybe your first order of business would be to have a Cafe Rio put in your palace.
All I did was start talking bout spam. You two took the ball and ran with it from there ;) So really I suppose barry deserves some credit for spamming your lovely blog entry in the first place.
I heart Barry. Really though. Christina and Mike are cool, but who could forget Barry?
Nina would go barefoot, already does half the time. As for the shaving of the head. I discovered I have some sort of scar on my scalp and the parents are always telling me how my head has corners, so I dunno about that.
well i wouldn't make anyone else shave their head. Cause i am all about that free agency stuff. I would do it though. Have you seen matthew since we started shaving his head?
My sisters went off about how ugly Jack's hair piece was in that episode last week. I didn't even think about it, heh. I'm not sure I could do the shaved look either. Unless Nina enacts a law, then I might be forced to. And do we have to walk on hot Vegas pavement with those bare feet? Ouch.
well, um, i haven't worked out all the kinks yet. i'm on it. don't worry your pretty little heads. And jack's hairpiece was hilarious. We were loving it at our lost party.
I bet barry had no idea we'd be talking about shaved heads and calloused feet.
So is Matthew's head like, cue ball shaved? bicced clean? I've never done it. Back in the day I used to get what was practically a buzz, but I've since decided I like having hair... just not too much.
Ah. Sounds like what my brother in law does. But he's half bald so he might as well. I could handle a 2 all around, it's the bic'd look I can't do. Not to mention I wouldn't trust myself with a bic on my head.
Empire Records is the first thing that came to mind when you mentioned shaving your head. I can't imagine Deb without a shaved head. Weird how different it makes someone look. Of course you could do it and I'd never know the difference since I've never seen you, right?
SWEET. I have the DVD that my sister bought. She let me have it cause no one else had a dvd player. I should give it back and buy the "extended" cut of Empire Records that came out a few years ago... I'm itching to know what kind of extra footage is in it.
All I can say is that my testimony of you guys' coolness just got stronger.
I saw Natalie Portman's shaved head for her new movie, and she still looks gorgeous. That's says alot. I bet you could do it Nina, but I'd prefer you with hair.
But you can go on trimming your eyelashes if you want.
I have the extended dvd version. Don't trade in what you've got. It sucks. It's not like extra footage or anything. It's like they actually replace some parts. And it is umm...worse. You know what i mean.
(and Sarah must really like it if she owns it. I thought maybe she didn't own anything but the red curtain trilogy since she ganks everything else from her sisters)
I get to go in 15...but i will actually be sad to leave the chomment. Sadly, this has been one of the most fun days i've had in a long time. I need more social contact.
I feel so priveleged to have witnessed the birth of chommenting. What will you do until Lost comes on? I'm here for another 3 hours at least. Love working 10 hour days!
Whoo hoo. I'm going to attempt to get some more work done, and then clean the house, and maybe even run for the first time in a while. We'll see what happens.
I think the other's may have gotten her. Seriously though, to leave us hanging like that....I want to know if their home is still intact. Noone tells me anything anymore.
sadly, I just don't seem to have enough time as all y'all. That's what happens when your job is chasing toddlers around and catering to their every whim or dealing with the ensuing tantrum (definitely worse than Hurricane Rita was for us).

boooo for comment spam.
Nina, you act as if you had secretly infiltrated my blog without my knowing. Forget not that I invited you my dear.
Luf ya!
and what is it with this sudden blog spam? sad day in the world of bloggers
have you ever tried spam before? I ate it for the first time in Hawaii... I figured since they were the highest in spam consumption per capita, I would be short-changing myself if I didn't get the full effect of Hawaiian culture.
And? How was it?
Remember when mom gave us spam for christmas? Might have been when you were on the mission...
Well in Hawaii I ate it in the form of musubi: a spam-shaped block of rice with a slice of fried spam on top, wrapped with this thing of seaweed (kinda like the stuff sushi is made with-- the paper thin, dried stuff.) It's a like a little rice spam sandwich, got it for a dollar at 7-11. Strangely satisfying... spam is... interesting. Not bad fried served with scrambled eggs for breakfast (think "50 First Dates"). I don't think I'll make it a regular part of my diet though ;-)
Yeah, I think I was on the mission. But I heard about it. I think she out did herself with last years box-o-tape. It's been quite handy actually.
Nina, do you still eat sushi after bungi jumping on thursday nights on occasion? Please say yes, or my world might be shattered.
I want to sushi. Just not the spam variety. Actually, I don't think I actually like sushi all that much...it's just fun to eat.
Technically I've never gone out for sushi in America. 'splain how it's "fun to eat"....
No, alas, i no longer bungi and sushi on thursdays, let alone any other day of the week. Which is really a pity, seeing as I live all of 2 seconds -walking- from the Sushi Boy Desu. After taking the ultimate plunge, i no longer feel the need to jump, i suppose. (excuse my shameless marriage cliche)
chommenting is fun.
What is chommenting, you ask? It's the word i just made up for what we are doing...chatting in the comment section.
So, CHOMMENT AWAY!
Wow. That is a cool word-- chomment. What else are chomment boxes for, anyways? And this is the first I've heard of sushi as a verb. Where have I been?
In our family, ANY word can become a verb. Huh, Bear. :)
Leave it to the spelling bee champ to make up words.
Shame on you Nina. I used to live vicariously through your bungi jumping as there was no way I was going to spend $60 bucks to get up there and chicken out.
and sushi's just fun...it's all rolled or not and cute and pretty and different. K, so I don't usually eat the real raw stuff, but I still like the whole experience.
yes indeedy Neeners. I think it's the spanish influence in the fam, they make up verbs like crazy.
umm, utahns are lucky. It's lunch time there.
Umm. I don't lunch until 1:00...so we can go together! I'll meet you at Cafe Rio...mmm k? Since Courtney's all involved with Bobby, I havent anyone to cafe rio with.
I still have my Cafe Rio card, half full, 3 years later. I should give it to you if it's still valid.
Grrr... you said Cafe Rio. Suddenly my yummy lunch doesn't sound as appetizing.
Sushi-- yeah the rolled stuff. From what I understand some places in Japan have like a bar with a conveyor belt thing that all kinds of sushi comes by on. How cool would that be? Oh the anticipation... what kind of Sushi will be coming by NEXT? Too bad I eat cause I like the flavor more than cause it's fun. I'm so boring.
Yes. Yes, I think you should.
Ooooh that would be fun! And Grrr is right.
at least you guys even have the prospect of cafe rio. pobre de mi. I live in las vegas, where we have no cafe rio, and nothing comparable. It is a sad, decreased calorie life we live here. (umm, sarah, not sure about that spanish, if it is even spanish. I think it was in a song i learned in high school called "soy una pizza".)
"Pobre de mi" never actually heard. It could translate to "woe is me" but don't know if it is a commonly used phrase. You could say "pobrecita" - poor little thing. Or "ay de mi" which now that I think of it is actually the translation of "woe is me" so don't listen to me, k?
i love my bilingual sister!
Don't speak so soon. I just had this girl in my office bringing me a document I know nothing about swearing that I told her that I needed it for her Medicaid. Which I don't. We got lost in translation I think. Plus, half the time they are just not as used to hospital procedure and stuff that they don't have in their countries. At least that's what I keep telling myself.
at least you guys even have the prospect of cafe rio. pobre de mi. I live in las vegas, where we have no cafe rio, and nothing comparable.
What are you talking about? There's one in St. George, that's only a 2 hour road trip away. it's worth it =P
I kid you not, if and when they finally get an In-n-Out in St. George I will make a trip to eat there. But then I'm not as big of fan of In-n-Out's food... it's just the experience. I'm weird like that.
Umm, is this coming from the same guy who eats becuase he 'like[s] the flavor more than cause it's fun'?
And, just to rub it in, I live ACROSS THE STREET from in-n-out.
Speaking of where i live, when are you going to come see me, Sarah???
the experience, eh? kinda like how sushi is "fun to eat"? ;)
Things I miss about Las Vegas (in no particular order:
1. In n Out
2. Christina
3. Rosaritas
4. El Torito
5. Parents
6. grandparents...er family
Things I don't miss:
1. the giant blow dryer
2. the way the trash and tumbleweeds stick to the fences
3. cigarette smoke
thank you.
I know I know... I realized that as soon as I made mention of In-n-Out. Honestly I didn't realize I wasn't in love with In-n-Out until June this year when I went to one in Vegas. But by then I had already made a promise to visit one in St. George if there ever was one. Besides, they have Nielson's Frozen Custard and Cafe Rio in St. George to make up for it. (I'm just pretending like I can take my foot out of my mouth. Good thing I ate lunch already)
Ok can you buy cool trendy t-shirts at your favorite sushi bar? huh? HUH? That's what I thought.
and there now is a Nielson's in Vegas. All we need is a Cafe Rio, and we're set.
And Nina I will be coming at Thanksgiving time. Unless Boom or Courtney go sooner and don't mind my tagging along. I was kinda avoiding vegas all summer.
OK, got us on the shirt thing, but they have Nielsen's Frozen Custard here, too. Which In-n-Out did you go to?
oops, took too long to publish my comment. redundancy ensued.
but i will be LEAVING at thanksgiving time. So come as early as you can.
and I sorta remember a certain little sister and not so little husband promising several times that they were coming out here for a visit but have they? Nope. Come soon because Jess and Ryan are selling their house and maybe moving to Layton.
i know. it's been too crazy. and now we are going to disneyland, and london. but i am hoping we will still be able to take a weekend and come up to utah. I read that the Rembrandt etchings that the church recently acquired are on display at the church museum. Would love to see that. Y'all ought to go.

I think we went to the In-n-Out on Sahara. All I know is that it wasn't the "popular" one that everyone from out of town hits. It was the first time I had fries animal style.
And Vegas has theaters with digital projectors too. Man if Vegas ever gets a Cafe Rio...
Oooh, hadnt head about that. Will have to go. And...I'm jealous.
Disneyland... but are you going when it's decked out for Christmas and has the Nightmare Before Christmas version of Haunted Mansion?
p.s. Christina maybe it should be your job to start random posts so the comments section can be used to chomment.
I know! i love it. we hit the 40 mark! my teeny little bratty post started the revolution known as Chommenting. love it, love it!
i wish we could go see nightmare, but the in-laws are treating, so i am just happy to go. I need to go see corpse bride.
Yes you do need to. It's great.
And yeah Nina, chomment more often. I don't hear from you for weeks and then BHAM!
the correct onamatapeia for that situation would be BA-DOW! I'll explain someday.
Okay locita. Amelia just emailed me to see how my day was going and asked if I was excited for LOST tonight (which I am by the way) and then said she was off to translate for some clients. So how else couold I respond then "Don't get lost in translation!" I'm a nerd.
What happened to lunch at 1? Or do you eat lunch at your desk? You shouldn't chomment with your mouth full.
I didn't want to bring it up, but I am so stoked for lost. We're having a lost party. Matthew is making a roast and we are going to our friends house that have dvr, so we can pause and rewind and all that. We did it last week too. We didn't even watch it last season, but we got the dvd's, and we totally got Lost.
Yeah, I came in a little late, so I am eating lunch, chommenting, and even working...all at once. Talk about multi-tasking.

Nice. The peper doesn't even add any calories to an already super low calorie meal. I remember why I started eating chicken noodle for lunch...
christina did you watch the Lost dvds yet? See what happened to the pilot of the airplane? You shoulud be scared of the clanky mechanical sound....
yeah, all I know from last season is from Jess' commentary. But I'm beyond hooked. Amelia and I have a Lost party too. But it's just us...and Gidget.
Pepper is my favorite commodity. It's wonderful. The mission ruined my tastebuds. Nothings good unless it's hot.
Nina, remember when Dad scared me after watching Jurassic Park? Innocent girl taking out the trash and her big burly comes jumping out of the bushes growling. I think I cried.

We got them at Costco for like $30 i think. Not exactly cheap, but they've already gone through about three families, and there are more in line. So they're being well used.
Yea, thats what i am doing for Arrested. I'm trying to only be addicted to ONE show at a time.
Pepper is my favorite commodity. It's wonderful. The mission ruined my tastebuds. Nothings good unless it's hot.

It was fun watching 18 episodes within about 72 hours though. So tell me-- I swear there's an episode that says why Hurley was in the nut house to begin with. My sisters don't believe me. I'm too lazy to go back and find the episode. So why was he in there?
$30 huh? That's about how much I have to get me through the next week and a half. So that may have to wait. Stupid pet deposit due this weekend.
the title of this post is a lost reference. :)
Arrested Development. I've seen one episode. I laughed pretty hard. Why haven't I watched more of it?
I was under the impression that we didn't know.
ah yes. Locke... think there's a connection with that guy in this season's premier living in the hatch and Locke being able to walk again as well as Jack's former wife?
Arrested, yeah, I think I watched the first season in one night. Nina, didnt you guys get that set for a wedding present?
I think EVERYTHING has a connection. It never ends.
Umm, no, it was for...yea. Wedding present from Tyler.
Oooh, I was talking to someone about the series he gave you for Christmas and couldnt remember the name of it for the life of me. Been meaning to ask.
the guy who dies in the hospital when jack is saving his future wife, is shannons dad.
wait, what?
Ohhh. That was Michael. He gave us Sledge Hammer. So totally hilarious. You know a show is bad when they actually blow up the world in the finale, because there is no chance in heaven it will run another season.
That was shannon's dad? The guy that future wife crashed into? Dooood. You are so much more lost than me. But I can understand Jin when he talks. So nah.
seriously?
I need to watch all of sledge hammer. You are both much more lost than myself. In fact, I think I almost found. And I can understand Jin as well. They're called subtitles.
Yeah he's got an accent. I don't think he's a native speaker of Korean. Sun sounds more natural. Oi. That scene when they make up just before they leave on the raft, it was a tear jerker...
And I can understand Jin as well. They're called subtitles.
That's what you think ;) That's someone else's translation of what Jin says. It's funny really-- you'd think a show written in English would have better translations for the Korean dialogue, wouldn't you?
p.s. I offered to help you get lost. I didn't imagine I'd be TELLING you to get lost. Sounds so harsh.
Ok, got me there. But if they had a character from Mexico...I'd be all over that. Maybe there's one hiding in the hatch with Desmond.
Sun is a big movie star in Korea. Jin is american. Sun helps him with his Korean on the show. Nice call, mikie.
Hurley speaks spanish!
It's true. I live for little moments where I hear Korean. You hear spanish every day. It's like knowing a secret code. A few weeks ago in one of the restrooms at work someone was talking rather loud in spanish from the john. I had no idea if he was calling out or if he was just on the phone. I sure hope he wasn't asking for TP in spanish because I sure didn't understand.

So does Rory on Gilmore Girls! So there! Did Mikie mention that he's a fan of that too?
Yeah isn't the guy who plays Jin from Hawaii or something? I mean I knew he didn't grow up in Korea, but he sounds worlds better than most non-Koreans that try to speak it. Actually Owen Wilson didn't do too bad in Starsky and Hutch... actually sounded better to me than the chinese guy who was pretending to be Korean.
Speak spanish that it is. Christina, you crack me up. This girl knows everything about everything. It's crazy, but true.
Gilmore Girls, gasp. I didn't see last night's OR last weeks. I'm falling behind.
Oh man. The crown goes to christina for biggest Lost nerd (though secretly I want to read that comic book too). How much longer can I resist the forums...
i swear i only forumed for three days. And I got all the info I could ever want. I will send you guys the link to the comic book if you want, but i warn you, it is kind of long.
i love you, bear. :)
I missed Gilmore Girls as well. But I figured that institute is probably a good substitute.
I haven't been watching it at all. I figure i will catch up someday on dvd. I decided to not let TV dictate my schedule anymore.
christina may know everything about everything, but can you rhyme with words like institude and substitute?
Hook me up with the comic. I somehow doubt I could let go after only 3 days on the forum. I trolled a "Ring" forum for several days after Samara crawled under my skin in 2002.
I decided to not let TV dictate my schedule anymore.
Hah! I've heard that before, hmm...
I heart the internet. It let's me dictate TV's schedule.
You're right Mikie. Sarah is THE coolest.
OK. Go here: http://www.lostlinks.net/
then at the bottom of the top of the page there is a link that says Walts comic book
ta-da!
for some reason the link for the comic book is the same as the link for the main page, so i have to give lame and vague instructions.
Cool? Sarah? What?
TV dictating my schedule? Yeah, I used the exact same words, huh? Can you tell we're sisters?
Dangerous. Forums are dangerous life suckers. Work productivity might suffer this week...
And thanks for the link to the comic book. Instructions were fine ;)
Right. At least you both know you need to BE the dictators and not the dictatees. Maybe the coolness runs in the family.
Did you say that same thing? Ha. Totally love my sister.
Man, Sarah's blog is so happenin. She gets over a hundred comments in one post.
I will have to check out the comic book when i have less work and chommenting to do. :) And Nina is pretty dang cool.
And I've always wanted to be a dictator. I'm starting small with my tv schedule. Next year it's my own small country.
No kidding. This ranks up there with one month when I used a couple thousand text messages in a month.
It must be the combined coolness of Sarah and Nina. You two could take over the world together.
You know what's the best? Over 100 comments on a post that is only 1 sentence long (2 if you count "HAHAHAHAHAHA!" as a sentence).
not without the help of our trusty friend mikie. (Even though i really don't even know who you are, you are cool)
Hmm, me and sarah, ruling the world...my first order of business would be to destroy all shoes and decree that all must go barefoot.
and i think i might shave my head. Hair is so overrated.
whoah. That's pretty radical... I thought women loved shoes, but what better way to assert your dominance? I thought maybe your first order of business would be to have a Cafe Rio put in your palace.
All I did was start talking bout spam. You two took the ball and ran with it from there ;) So really I suppose barry deserves some credit for spamming your lovely blog entry in the first place.
umm..where did sarah go?
I heart Barry. Really though. Christina and Mike are cool, but who could forget Barry?
Nina would go barefoot, already does half the time. As for the shaving of the head. I discovered I have some sort of scar on my scalp and the parents are always telling me how my head has corners, so I dunno about that.
well i wouldn't make anyone else shave their head. Cause i am all about that free agency stuff. I would do it though. Have you seen matthew since we started shaving his head?
Corners? Like Max Headron or something? Yikes.
My sisters went off about how ugly Jack's hair piece was in that episode last week. I didn't even think about it, heh. I'm not sure I could do the shaved look either. Unless Nina enacts a law, then I might be forced to. And do we have to walk on hot Vegas pavement with those bare feet? Ouch.
well, um, i haven't worked out all the kinks yet. i'm on it. don't worry your pretty little heads. And jack's hairpiece was hilarious. We were loving it at our lost party.
Jack's hairpiece. Awful.
Matthews shaved head. Yeah, it looks really good. I never pictured him with a shaved before. But recall him talking about how his mom hates it.
And don't worry Mike, the callouses on your feet will toughen up in no time. You'll be trotting alone the desert terrain without any pain.
I bet barry had no idea we'd be talking about shaved heads and calloused feet.
So is Matthew's head like, cue ball shaved? bicced clean? I've never done it. Back in the day I used to get what was practically a buzz, but I've since decided I like having hair... just not too much.
Ever see Empire Records?
yes
seen it. and no, not bic-ed. I think it's a number 2 guard.
not like deb though. and no pink daisies.
See Mike, Nina and I had what you call an addiction to Empire Records in our younger years. I think we actually both own it on VHS.
Ah. Sounds like what my brother in law does. But he's half bald so he might as well. I could handle a 2 all around, it's the bic'd look I can't do. Not to mention I wouldn't trust myself with a bic on my head.
Empire Records is the first thing that came to mind when you mentioned shaving your head. I can't imagine Deb without a shaved head. Weird how different it makes someone look. Of course you could do it and I'd never know the difference since I've never seen you, right?
SWEET. I have the DVD that my sister bought. She let me have it cause no one else had a dvd player. I should give it back and buy the "extended" cut of Empire Records that came out a few years ago... I'm itching to know what kind of extra footage is in it.
All I can say is that my testimony of you guys' coolness just got stronger.
I saw Natalie Portman's shaved head for her new movie, and she still looks gorgeous. That's says alot. I bet you could do it Nina, but I'd prefer you with hair.
But you can go on trimming your eyelashes if you want.
I have the extended dvd version. Don't trade in what you've got. It sucks. It's not like extra footage or anything. It's like they actually replace some parts. And it is umm...worse. You know what i mean.
(and Sarah must really like it if she owns it. I thought maybe she didn't own anything but the red curtain trilogy since she ganks everything else from her sisters)
you guys are kind of sad, but fun. but sad. but I read all of your comments (except the boring ones) so what does that say about me?
HAHA. For the record: I DO NOT CUT MY EYELASHES. THEY CAME THAT WAY.
RACHEL!!!! Is your house ok? Are you home? I haven't heard anything.
wow. Nina does know everything. Guess I'll just get my own copy of the regular version (or procrastinate giving my sister's back, teehee).
That robot picture. So cool. You should have crashed the chomment session sooner. Chommenting sure makes work go by faster ;)
Amen!
I get to go in 15...but i will actually be sad to leave the chomment. Sadly, this has been one of the most fun days i've had in a long time. I need more social contact.
Ray, did you see how many comments there were and just die?
Rach, thanks for joining even if we are sad. Seriously though, how are things there? I've been meaning to call.
I feel so priveleged to have witnessed the birth of chommenting. What will you do until Lost comes on? I'm here for another 3 hours at least. Love working 10 hour days!
Whoo hoo. I'm going to attempt to get some more work done, and then clean the house, and maybe even run for the first time in a while. We'll see what happens.
i'm on nine hours already. I will go home, sit on the couch, and rock back and forth, repeating, under my breath: 4...8...15...16...23...42...4...8...
are you sure some alien hasn't altered your mind and made you see things? Maybe I'm not even real....
Yay for being healthy enough to run again!
so, uh, what happened to rachel?
Nina, you rock! Luf ya. Thanks for chommenting. Tell Matthew I said hello.
I think the other's may have gotten her. Seriously though, to leave us hanging like that....I want to know if their home is still intact. Noone tells me anything anymore.
will do. love you too.
Sorry the rest of your day at work will totally suck without us, mike.
le sigh, I know.
I think Rachel was making a statement by posting one single solitary comment in this 140+ chomment fest. Wow...
that would be very rachel.
sadly, I just don't seem to have enough time as all y'all. That's what happens when your job is chasing toddlers around and catering to their every whim or dealing with the ensuing tantrum (definitely worse than Hurricane Rita was for us).
