AMTV?

i read in the NY Times this morning that MTV is bringing back music vidjas...yet they'll be playing them in the morning from 3 AM to 9AM. they will also be bringing back MTV Unplugged (YES!), but alas, will also be showing it in the AM (boo). 

now tell me MTV, what makes you think this is a smart idea? what about the people who are excited that you are bringing Unplugged back, but don't want to watch it online because you tell them to since they can't watch it in the morning? what if i actually hate watching tv in general on my computer? yeah, you're just chuck full of ideas MTV. brilliant ones. just like the one when you decided to give Whitney Port her own show. yeah, look how well that turned out.

PSA

to those couples that like to make out in the elevators when its just me, you and your significant other...

please don't ever do it. again. ever. 

unless you want me to vom on your shoes.

thanks.

Red Carpet Trainwreck

i'm seeing a lot of ugly on the red carpet right now. so much, that i'm feeling nauseous - too nauseous to even try to post photos. i'll do it tomorrow. but i'll leave you with this - sjp, you always get it right. 

Pigeon Poop

on my way to work on a project at MOMA, i was pooped on. by a pigeon. right on my forehead. therefore i empathize with and, needless to say, felt much like the small child in the photo below...

i was on the phone with my brother when i felt this little wet "plop." that was when i said to myself (and my brother), "ohmygod. did i just get shit on?" i wiped my forehead with my sleeve and sure enough, pigeon poop. not only on my forehead/in my hair, but now on my sleeve. i told my brother i had to call him back, made a mad dash to the MOMA to check in, all the while hoping there wasn't more poop in my hair or on any other visible area (especially while speaking to the front desk.) 

has this ever happened to anyone? because this marked the second time i've had this happen. (in my life and also in a two year span.) and now that i think about it, i was on the phone with my brother the last time it happened. they say that getting pooped on is good luck, but now i'm just starting to think my brother is bad luck. 

in total, this is just another reason why i hate pigeons. 

Dislike Post #2

After sweating all the booze out of my system via my 7 am run in the park, I went to Whole Foods to do a bit of grocery shopping. 

And much to my dismay, one of my biggest pet peeves occurred while waiting to order my Jamba Juice...

having someone stand too close behind me in line. 

I HATE this. 

To the point where sometimes I feel like asking, "will standing unnecessarily close to me REALLY make the line move all that much quicker?"

Because as far as I have been informed, 

IT DOESN'T.

It just makes me crazy. 

And its an even better experience when the person who does this to me is a Manhattan Mom.*

Why are you in such a rush? 

You don't have kids to pick up.

You don't have a job to go to.

Unless your rush is your mission to find out if your husband is cheating on you with his secretary. 

THEN, I will understand.

Bahhhhh.

*Note: I actually LOVE Manhattan Moms and the mythical, magical creatures that they are. Really, I do.

Dislike Post #1

I just finished watching this with my brother and I am not okay with it AT ALL...

I never saw it in theaters and now I know why everyone who did, was cursing its name and telling me to stay away from it. 

For those of you who haven't seen it, I'll give you the snub of it:

Its about "growing up"/leaving your 20s, emotions/emotional breakdowns and ultimately... forgiveness. 

Right now, I can't even forgive myself for not turning it off after 30 minutes because I knew where it was going, let alone forgive myself for renting the damn thing. 

The only reason I kept watching was because Casey Affleck makes for some amazing eye candy.

It leaves you with that heavy feeling in your throat, as if you are about to cry, but you don't because secretly...your blood is boiling.

All I can say is: if you still really want to see it, just make sure you are mentally prepared.
