Sooooo.....

This is fascinating. Apparently my dad is involved in a massive conspiracy by the military to foce people to get divorced because it's cheaper for them to support singles than families. Apparently the military, in this vast divorce scheme, saves "1/2 million dollars per family." It's very professional. It's an insanely long, detailed, and hard to understand website/conspiracy theory put together by a man who was married to a woman who served under my dad a few years ago. Apparently my dad was extremely unethical in the way he attempted to legally protect this woman and her child from this clearly insane man. Really, pretty much all my dad did it looks like was write this man a letter asking him not to attempt to visit his wife at the office or on base because he was incredibly disruptive. And also, look at the pictures on the front page. He. Is. Crazy. I would send him a smarmy email, but he clearly wouldn't understand normal English, and on top of all his other madness, would probably try to kill me. ANYways, that's all.

Seriously? You made it this far?

If you know me, you may know that bad spelling is one of my pet peeves. Today I remembered something that really reheheally bothers me. Misspelling ritalin.

You made it out of high school. You're attending a 4-year school. You've probably been on ritalin before. You're studying psychology for heaven's sake. You're going to be prescribing it for the rest of your life. So, pray tell, why do rely on a pseudo punk/emo band for your spelling of one of the most oft-prescribed drugs in the country? Please, I'm desperate to know!

Australia's natural beauty is apparently not found in it's vistas.

So, If you haven't seen Australia yet, GO SEE IT. I say this, not because it is a masterpiece of film making (snicker), not by any means. But what it is, is a masterpiece of hotness. I've always had a celebrity crush on Hugh Jackman, but when I found out he was People magazine's "sexiest man alive," I was skeptical. I mean, there's just so many other men that I would classify as sexier than Mr. Jackman. However, after watching this, I understand completely why. This movie may have been meant as an homage to the natal land of its actors and director, but it looks more like a reverent homage to Jackman's rugged beauty and the ease and manly grace with which he portrays that iconic, and until now uniquely American, figure of the loner cowboy type person. I know I'm gushing like a ridiculous obsessed schoolgirl (omgzorz!!! lol :) ), but I cannot even find the words to accurately describe just how insanely attractive Hugh Jackman is in this movie. Nicole Kidman's amazing wardrobe and the gorgeous Australian landscapes fade into insignificance next to slow motion epic shots of "The Drover" rounding up cattle, or riding a horse, or, like, walking. Simple things yes, but they are made absorbingly interesting simply because they are performed by a very tan, very buff, very ruggedly disheveled and unshaven Hugh. *girlish sigh*

My current favorite tv characters

Let's talk about Marc and Amanda from Ugly Betty. They are my absolute favorites right now. Each exchange between them just brightens my day a little bit more.

MARC: What year were you born?
AMANDA: 1991.
MARC: You're 16?
AMANDA: 1992.
MARC: Other way.


And also Andrea from Samantha Who? Drunk and hilarious. Please watch an episode just for her.

Let's talk about this review of Twilight. Have I mentioned before that I love Manohla Dargis?
