Rhonda and I went as Contestants of Team #3 on SUPERMARKET SWEEP for Halloween. I think only one person knew what we were without our explanation.
This is the reason that Rhonda is one of the best roommates. She breaks down all the numbers for me so I don’t have to. I just cut checks and don’t have to think. When I owe someone money or vice versa, I love to have it in email form for 2 reasons: when I’m verbally told, I normally don’t have my checkbook on me and so would have to ask again, and then probably ask one more time after I filled out the top part of the check and got to the amount field. The other reason (especially for bills) is for historical reasons.
Also, the purpose of this post was to brag about how low our rent is for our huuuuge apartment. :)
TLC
I’m officially ditching Jon and Kate and moving on to the Duggars!
I 100% support this. I don’t care what anyone says about the Duggars, I fucking love them! They seem like a super happy family, so I don’t care how many freaks they want to bring into this world.
gratuitous portrait of my great great grandmother as a young girl
you may notice that her twin is clutching a bible and it may delight you to learn that that bible is currently one of the most prized holdings of the ganan library. as a wee raynorling, i spilled spaghetti sauce (known to my grandparents as “red gravy”) on some boring passage from judges and everyone went apeshit. if only the cherubim in this picture knew what was in store for their bible.
Your great great grandmother was definitely the hotter Olsen.

Butters died.
jgh:
They performed the surgery and he had 4 perforations and there were bacterial infections lining his GI tract and his pancreas. The vet said the only humane outcome would be to euthanize him.
I’m sorry. :(
Weekend of films
Thursday we went to “Matthew Weiner presents….Mad Men” - he showed the John Deere episode and then had a Q&A afterwards. Things I learned: There have been 6 different child actors that have played Bobby Draper, but only one girl has ever played Sally Draper. Joan will likely not return to the office but will definitely remain on the show. He said he wasn’t going to reveal anything, but just from the way he spoke - he didn’t want to write for the show but actually write how things would have really been.
After that, we went to Youth in Revolt which stars Michael Cera. Zach Galifianakis and Justin Long were also in this. It was pretty funny.
Friday night we got in line for “Mitchell Hurwitz presents…”. For all of the screenings and events, people with badges formed one line, people with passes formed a different line, and anyone wanting to buy leftover tickets formed another. Badges always get let in first, then passes, then tickets. Well, as Jake and I are waiting in line, Mitch pops out of car and Jake’s eyes lit up. We both kind of wave at him and he waves back at us and tells us “I’ll see you inside in a minute.” It was a really cool moment until some girl walks out of the theater to tell all the people with passes or tickets that they couldn’t enter because the theater was full.
We had planned to eat during the movie (it was at the Alamo) so we were still hungry and started wandering around downtown for a place to eat. While we are wandering, we stumble upon a free outdoor Jet concert. Wtf, Austin? I was too hungry to stay and watch so we ate at a nearby (crappy) restaurant.
Later we saw Harmony and Me which was filmed in Austin. Movie was good. Director and 2 actors got up afterwards for a Q&A and the director threw a hissy fit because he didn’t like the quality of the movie (due to the theater it was shown in) and in his words “didn’t want to pretend to have a Q&A when no one really saw the movie”. It was lame.
We skipped Saturday due to the LSU game (Geaux Tigers!!!)
Yesterday, we went to see The Messenger starring Woody Harrelson and Ben Foster. The movie was excellent. Woody Harrelson, the director and someone else were there for Q&A afterwards. I got some realllly crappy iPhone pics of Woody.
I am looking forward to more movies this week.
“I, Bill Hoffman Sr., am holding the blueprints. Not Jr. Everyone who sees this picture will see me holding the blueprints. I built this company. Bill Hoffman Jr. will never get to feel the power of having blueprints.”
“I want to hold the blueprints. I will cross my arms and look like I don’t want to hold the blueprints.”
“He can move me into a nursing home, but dagnabbit I will be holding onto these doggone blueprints until the day I die. From my cold, dead hands Bill Hoffman Jr.”
“I never wanted those blueprints. Why do I feel like I need them? Maybe I will buy random blueprints online and roll around naked in a bed with them. That could be fun.”
“If they serve JELL-O at the home, I think I’ll be ok. One hand on the spoon, one hand on my blueprints.”
“I will cut a hole in the blueprints and have my way with them.”
