Yes, I missed yesterday, who's surprised?

1. Post about something that made you happy today even if it's just a small thing.
2. Do this everyday for eight days without fail.
3. Tag eight (or as many as you want) of your friends to do the same.


1. Because I was jonesin' for some vegan lemon poppyseed cookies from the Alternative Baking Company last night, I walked to Whole Foods. They were just as awesome as expected. I'm not vegan anymore, but these are the bomb. The first bite tastes like lemon tea and then it just gets better and better. anevivi can totally back me up on this, we got these like three times the last time she was up here.

2. I also got fruit at Whole Foods, which means blueberries, strawberries and kiwi for breakfast today! I love fruit. All fruit. FRUIT. If it were possible to live on fruit, wine and coffee without dying of malnutrition, high blood pressure and alcohol poisoning, I'd be there in a heartbeat.

3. And speaking of coffee, the cup I made myself this morning + soy creamer was the best I've had in a while. Mmm.

4. Also, I'm going over to rageprufrock's to watch SPN tonight and she's making dinner. This will of course be awesome. Also, there will be TGIFriday's dip from a box, which I think we can all agree is awes as well.

5. Not food related, haha- I'm wearing this skirt today, which always makes me want to twirl down the hallway in my office like a pretty ballerina princess. (I might have done this once while no one was looking. Maybe.)

krazykipper tagged me for this ages ago, but I'm so crap at memes, and well, it was a not a good time for it, let's say. Still isn't, maybe, BUT. Here goes. No promises on if I can actually do this for a whole week- *looks* no, wait, fuck, eight days?? Really??? Man, this is hard. D: RIGHT ANYWAY HAPPINESS:

1. Gossip Girl was back last night! IMO the best part of Gossip Girl is reading Richard Lawson's recaps on Tuesday mornings. Richard riffs on this crazy/bad show with such daffy, snarky, brilliant hate and glee that whereas I used to read his recaps because I watched Gossip Girl, I now watch Gossip Girl so I can read his recaps.

Anyway, he used to be on Gawker, but he doesn't work there anymore, so I had to go put on my best girl detective hat and find him over on tv.com. His recap for last night is HERE and you should go read it if you watch. It certainly gave me the best choking-in-my-cubicle-so-I-don't-disturb-the-neighbors laugh I've had all week.

2. Thanks to work perks, I get to go to a talk next week with some of the editors from Entertainment Weekly about Fall TV. Yesssss.

3. Also, in the 'you'd think this would be a work perk but no, I do this in my free time' column, thanks to my faithful stalking of EW magazine, I also get to go to an advance screening of Flashforward with leupagus next Tuesday. John Cho! Dominic Monaghan! Some sort of time travel premise maybe I don't know don't really care!


Um, tagging, uh, whoever. (I fail at memes, did I mention?)

No actual content, just a meme. Gacked from janne_d and everyone else on my flist basically! I don't normally do memes, but I couldn't resist this one. A film quotes meme:

1. Pick 10 of your favorite movies.
2. Go to IMDb, and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.
5. No googling/using IMDb search functions.


1. As if a woman ever loved a man for his virtue.

2. I don't give a good fuck what you know, or don't know, but I'm gonna torture you anyway, regardless. is Reservoir Dogs, guessed by neptuneskisses (and also janne_d).

3. It'll belong to you because you've lived there. That was about to happen to me, but I didn't know it yet. is L'Auberge Espagnole or The Spanish Apartment, guessed by syllic.

4. I am a cure for lesbianism. is Imagine Me & You, guessed by marjorrogue.

5. When they find out who *you* are, they'll pad the cell. is Bringing Up Baby, guessed by sophieisgod.

6. That's depressing and it's expensive, two words I hate. You know the words I like? I like the word "peppy" and the word "cheap". Peppy and cheap. is from Soapdish, guessed by circa_eve, who has an unfair advantage.

7. I would sell my grandmother for a drink - and you know how I love my grandmother. is The Philadelphia Story, guessed by b_hallaward.

8. Right. That's why you were standing in the Chancellor's back yard twirling that little cap gun of yours tonight. You're fine, all right, you're fit as a fucking fiddle. is Wonder Boys, guessed by syllic (and also janne_d).

9. You know I'm going to be twenty-five in June? ... That's a quarter of a century, makes a girl think. is Some Like It Hot, guessed by ink_n_imp.

10. And thus the whirligig of time brings in his revenges. is Twelfth Night, guessed by circa_eve.


It's possible I erred on the side of vague in terms of the quotes themselves, but I can't tell. I like to assume that everyone has of course seen these as many times as I have.
